do not understand people who get bored of seeing common animals. understand even less when they act with annoyance or hostility just because they're common animals. a deer or a sparrow or a field mouse is like a sunset to me

like i've said it before and i'll end up saying it again but harassing celebrities on instagram bc they haven't said exactly what you wanted them to say about a humanitarian crisis
is not activism
is just performative bullshit
makes you look like a dick and harms the optics of your movement
derails the conversation to be about your celebrity of choice and not the cause you're yelling at them about
is often rooted in bigotry, especially with regards to putting a disproportionate amount of pressure on poc to comment on social issues that they are not experts in just because they are poc
creates a false sense of having done good and perpetuates the idea that you don't need to do any actual work to help people in crisis as long as you've yelled at folks for thoughtcrime on the internet
does not help anybody except yourself, you selfish little shit
#the person with whom you're in a parasocial relationship owes you nothing#thought activism doesn't exist#thought crime doesn't exist#better keep quiet when you don't know enough about a topic#celebs really do not control the world what they say has mostly no effects at all anywhere in reality#where does this idea come from that (stage) performers have to be saints or even gods#were they ever. historically? don't think so

"Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing."
- Shakespeare's Macbeth, act 5 scene 5

You have to start noticing things. The direction of the rays of sunshine, how it touches and warms your skin; the sway of a leaf in a mild breeze; the simple beauty of the flowers; the strong smell of your morning coffee; the wind in your hair and on your face; the liveliness of the city; the calm of your soul. You have to start noticing this and start living for it.

The daffodils have finally bloomed! Entire fields are turning yellow <3
My mum pointed out I lose interest in the humble cowslip as soon as flashier spring flowers show up and I felt a bit bad, so I picked a little bunch of cowslips to let them add their own touch of yellow to Daffodil Day, in their unassuming way.

It really makes me sick to see people giving money to penny weeklies when Franklin's expedition STILL has not been found 😭 There are good men out there trapped in unimaginable temperatures and literally all that's needed is a little more funding for another rescue mission yet all you guys seem to care about are your vulgar little stories...

Sorry for posting so much about Tom Gradgrind/James Harthouse from Hard Times lately. It turns out that I was getting arsenic poisoning from my wallpaper? Anyway I took a seaside stroll and I'm normal now. Check your walls y'all
#whyyy did i assume they were committing unlawful actions together like where did i even get that from lol #hard times isn't even that good by dickens standards tbh

I swear this website has 0 reading comprehension skills. Darwin NEVER claimed we "evolved" from apes like if one of you guys actually bothered to open his new book you'll see all his arguments are backed up by evidence. He actually makes a lot of sense
#sure there's nuance like i don't fully agree with all of it #but his general theory of natural selection seems pretty sound imo

Of course these are the finalists lmao this website is so predictable. Anyway vote Heathcliff if you dont i'm going to assume you're a phrenologist
📖 sapphichelenburns Follow
It's not problematic to acknowledge the fact that Heathcliff was a brute like he literally killed dogs in case you forgot. #rochestersweep
🙈 butchbronte Follow
I love the implication here that Rochester never did anything cruel either. He literally locked his wife in the attic and lied to Jane about it 😭 like that was a pretty significant thing that happened

And? God forbid women do anything
#why'd you have to pit two bad bitches against each other #anyway i'm not attracted to men but still went with rochester #bc in terms of living quarters thornfield hall > wuthering heights easily

I think this is the prettiest world – so long as you don’t mind a little dying, how could there be a day in your whole life that doesn’t have its splash of happiness?
