when vienna by billy joel hits

eyes up, guardian

i never ever cry in front of anyone ever but there was this boy i was OBSESSED with in primary school when i was like seven years old because he was the fastest boy in the class and he had cool spiky hair and i always thought it was a crush until i came out and realised it was gender envy of some form and today my friend out of the blue told me that i look like him and we looked at his instagram together and i actually do. i look almost exactly like him. and i cried like an absolute wanker because i’ve been so miserable my whole life being perceived entirely the wrong way and i went home today and looked at myself and realised i look like the boy i always wanted to be when i was a kid. and whenever i feel bad about myself i get to remind myself that i look like him so i shouldn’t feel bad because back then i couldn’t have ever dreamed of getting to look like this. and t will only make it better and even though the idea of starting it is still so scary to me i keep having moments like this that make me realise how good it’s going to be even if some of it will suck. i always focus on all of the ways my transition has gone and will go wrong and i forget that it’s going to go right in a lot of ways too

ok at the point now where looking at an image of dennis makes me want to smash my head through a wall

Might fucking scream I think I maybe locked myself out of the romance I wanted to do in bg3 like 20 hours ago in the playthrough

i go fairly long periods of time not actually looking @ the z°wens tag on here and every time i take a peek in i'm just like

The British Empire was ruthlessly efficient, even in genocide. When they exterminated a people, their intention was to do so completely. But they were also cruel. The Tasmanian peoples were hunted like animals, buried alive (these are all real, you can search it if you have the stomach), and finally interned until they faded away from this Earth. The extermination was so through that only a few descedants of the native Tasmanians are still living. Only facets of what was once a living and unique culture remain.

As a last insult, they used the faces of the Tasmanians as a stepping stone between "ape" and "man", something less than human. Trucanini was the last of her people, but for the British, she and her people were not people at all.

Cruelty for the sake of cruelty.

okay the basic gist of my rewrite of reids addiction plotline is reid reaches out to gideon and gets brushed off like in canon (in my version it would be very obvious this is because gideon cannot see how bad its gotten cannot face that this is really happening) he tries to get sober by himself like in canon but unlike canon he realizes he just. he Cant do this alone. he needs help. but he cant ask gideon again. he cant ask morgan, jj, hotch, or garcia he cant cant risk losing their respect. so in the midst of withdrawls he calls emily because well, hes already been a dick to her for months so he doesnt have to worry about her opinion of him, but shes also a good person and he knows he can trust her, so he calls her, asks for help, and when hes finally through the worst of it, with the sun peaking through the blinds as they sit on his bathroom floor her feels for the first time like maybe he will get through this

the way that brains work is insane
