My body and my brain are just begging for a break and I can’t afford the time to give myself one. How much longer can I keep doing that, you know.

i wish there was a way to tell young people, without it sounding condescending, that they may think they know so much but you, an adult, know they really don’t bc i mean that with my entire heart. when i was 20, 21, 22 i thought i was an adult, i thought i knew what it was to be an adult, but i didn’t. it sounds so trite, so common, bc that’s said so often now it’s kinda lost its meaning, but fuck. it’s true! at age 28 i know a hell of a fuckton more than i did at age 21 (and even still have a hell of a fuckton more to learn) when i thought i knew it all at age 21 and i know that i am so glad i didn’t make certain mistakes i could have made that other young people are making (such as having kids young, or getting married young, and by young i mean early 20s) and shit i can say that until i am blue in the face but young people won’t know that, can’t really understand that to its full capacity, until they reach the age i am and see for themselves how lucky they are that they didn’t make certain irrevocable mistakes at a young age bc once those mistakes are made there is no going back that is their life they have made their bed and there are few ways to get out of it, they’ve tucked the sheets in too tight

but how do i and other people who have reached this realization and understanding and know what it really means to be an adult help people too young to have reached this stage understand that they’re too young without it coming across like you’re being patronizing when no you’re just trying to help them in a world they don’t know how to navigate yet bc they just haven’t been around long enough

you ever accidentally create a recurring theme in your writing. you start putting together an outline for something you’ve never written before and get partway through planning, rearrange the pieces, and go “GODDAMMIT THIS IS ABOUT GRIEF AGAIN”? because let me tell you,

Thought my gf cheated on me again so I messed around with her gay brother, but it turns out it really *was* just her cousin that she was spending time with, so now I’m kinda feeling guilty and confused

Is this how a priest in a confessional booth feels… ten hail marys

why is religious Christmas imagery all so joyful and pleasant? where is the inherent horror of the birth of Christ? A mother is handed her newborn child, wailing and innocent. Her hands come away sticky. Red. Simply by giving her son life she has already killed him. He is doomed from the beginning. Her love will not save him from suffering. Because the thing cradled in her arms is not a baby, it is a sacrifice: born amongst the other bleating animals whose blood will one day be spilled in the name of what demands it. the night is silent with anticipation. Mary, did you know? That your womb was also a grave?

I’m reminded of this old meme

Being a “Fun Fact !” kind of autistic is all fun and games until you get halfway through sharing an interesting tidbit and realize that it probably wasn’t appropriate to share in polite company and now you have to deal with the consequences :(

Unstoppable villain, meet immovable agent of friendship!

I was wondering in what circumstances Charlie would just OFFER her soul to Al.

And he would short circuit as all his manipulation plans become unnecessary.

Cause Charlie cares about her friends and if they need help she won’t hesitate.

rough day for marcille

the low quality children

I’m so sorry other character stans but Toph Beifong is THE character of all time

Disabled, doesn’t “overcome” it but adapts and forces others to adapt instead.

Spoiled rotten rich kid with refined rich kid manners but chooses not to use them unless weaponizong them, can should and will kick your ass, but honest and good at her heart

A PROFESSIONAL WRESTLER EARTHBENDING MASTER AND HUSTLER AT AGE 12

Literally the definition of swag from womb to tomb

Do I even need to bring up metalbending?

INVENTED METALBENDING

Violence to show affection

Aang and Sokka quite possibly the only thing holding her back from straight up murder several times.

Definition of “do you want me to kill that guy for you? Cause it seems like he sucks. And I’ll totally kill that guy for you”

^ this is the real reason we never got a Toph and Zuko teamup, it would probably take her 3 minutes to convince Zuko to just kill his dumb lame dad already

I’m soooo sorry but she is UNMATCHED. Toph Beifong for President

Wyrm on a string

something something gman tommy something something gordon in stasis. you know how it is.

so much happened in this whole episode but i’m still on fig infiltrating ruben’s dream, making it look like the place where his friend was murdered, and then disguising herself as kipperlilly & repeatedly saying different variants of “somebody needs to take the fall for this, and it’s not going to be me. it’s going to be you.” while adaine as the elven oracle shows up next to her. can you imagine waking up from that, the idea of a horrible truth being pinned on you by your friend to save her own skin while the personification of fate and destiny stands there, almost as a promise that this is GOING to happen to you. we don’t even know if this kid is guilty. my god.

“actually the term you’re looking for is pansexual” actually i’m dying right now. i am dying right now before your very eyes and those are the last words i had to read before my soul vacates this plane of existence forever. Are you proud of yourself
