𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐠𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮?

the ghost of your bloodline

you were doomed from the start, weren’t you? born to bend yourself to the will of a bloodline that sneers at every effort you take towards betterment. you are stained by the hand of your father, your mother, perhaps a family member that looms over your weary shoulders. the first grave is the childhood home, after all. you can escape all you wish. your body can leave the home, the state, the country, but you will always be haunted by what raised you. when chelsea dingman wrote, “i have been trying to go home my entire life.” when graham greene wrote, “from childhood i had never believed in permanence, and yet i had longed for it.” when oscar wilde wrote, “a burnt child loves the fire.”

the ghost of devotion

your body was crafted to be loved and to be adored. you write with the touch of a poet, the fingertips of a lover. if you are not loved, you are not whole. you are made to be sculpted by the hands of another into something perfect. without their love, you feel as though you may crumble without the support of purpose their touch provides. when ernest hemingway wrote “it was too good to last.” when ocean vuong wrote, “i miss you more than i remember you.” when david foster wallace wrote, “everything i’ve ever let go of has claw marks on it.”

the ghost of the damned

you rot with the need for something more than what you have. the ghost is built up of the feeling of stagnation. you find it staring at the ceiling with sleep - blurred vision ; this is the third night you have met its eyes in the early hours of the morning. you tear yourself apart looking for comfort, for validation, for acceptance. but it never feels quite enough. you ruin everything you touch, despite every attempt to be more than what you have always been. you would sculpt yourself as something perfect for those around you, but you are no artist. when albert camus wrote, “be silent, heart; there is no hope!” when lucille clifton wrote, “maybe i should’ve wanted less. maybe i should’ve ignored the bowl in me, begging to be filled.” when taylor swift said, “i’m still on that tightrope, i’m still trying everything to get you looking at me.”

@blcssom SENT 🗣 FOR A STARTER WITH A LINE OF DIALOGUE FROM THIS GENERATOR !

“  you  can  be  kind  of  uptight  sometimes ,  you  know  that ?  ”   not  the  first  time  she’s  brought  it  up ,  but  their  newest  motel  sucks  and  she’s  bored .   “  is  it  because  your  wife  isn’t  here  to  fuck  the  stress  out  of  you ?  ”     /     @whorifics​

why does chris brookes look 95% of the time like *I* could beat him up

always hilarious to me when writers have joker nearly die or whatever (superman nearly killing him for lois, joker nearly getting executed, and so forth) and batman saves him (because they don’t want The Big Villain to die). like congrats, idiot, you just made them gayer!!

What are other words besides "western" that better capture what people mean when they use that term?

sometimes I think people just mean "white" but often it is broader than that

"Europe and European diaspora" but diaspora is far too neutral a word for what actually happened

"whiteness dominated countries/cultures." probably accurate but clumsy

"European imperialist descended countries/cultures." also probably accurate but clumsy.

Idk, "western" has always felt like a euphemism to me. At the very least it flattens out what’s really going on. But I can’t at the moment think of common alternatives that capture the population/group of cultures that western is supposed to.

(Also when I was a kid and saw references to people in "western clothes" I pictured them in like. Cowboy hats, denim and spurs.)

"what are you talking about? i go outside plenty." only when he needs to get grocery or the occasional suit dry-cleaned, sure. but still. he's far from being the recluse they're trying to paint him as. "you just never see it." / @falscgcds

Powerwolf is such a silly band. The face paint. Furry art for album covers. Sacrilegious lyrics but like in a comedy way. What the hell is Resurrection by Erection? Are you 12? And then I watch their live performances and I'm like this is insane. This is the best thing I've ever seen. How do they sound this good every time. I must see this band live before I die. I must see them live now.
