I want to explain how exhausted I am. Even in my dreams. How I wake up tired. How I’m being drowned by some kind of black wave.

I want to date another goth boy. Sitting on his lap doing his eyeliner. Pride badges on leather jackets. Making out in an abandoned building. Going ghost hunting together. Sleeping under a dark moon and huddling for warmth in the coldest nights. Reading Poe by candle light and listening to the cure until the songs tattoo into our brains. (I am so fucking lonely)

Forgive me, for all the things I did but mostly for the ones that I did not.

The deepest of love I have ever witnessed is between the waves and the shore. The shore embraces the waves wholly with all their being regardless of what they bring, and the waves, they come back every single time fate takes them away. One accepts everything with grace, the other keeps the promise of coming back consistently.

I do not know the name of the feeling that I have for you. But it is a special tenderness, something I have never felt until now, not for anyone.

as someone who is both in academia and has an "academia aesthetic" blog, i do think it's worth discussing how restrictive and hostile academia is for many people, truly beyond the aesthetic.
academia is presented as this space where intellect and progressive thought is welcome and encouraged, which it certainly is, but only in the "correct" manner, by the "correct people," etc.
at the end of the day, there's still a professor insulting me for daring to correct him on his antisemitic terminology in class. there is still a classroom where me and my friend are the only two non-christians present in a discussion about whether or not christianization was violent.
there are so many people who face these situations and worse. (i'm privileged as an able-bodied white jewish woman in the academic sphere!)
there is an entire world of academia beyond the aesthetic and it's hostile. there are so many institutional and social barriers preventing people from accessing academia. and there are so many instances of cloistered departments that are at least 15 years behind in progress and thought.
I don't know. that's just my short ramble with no conclusion.
