There's a girl somewhere out there. She's tired. She's so fucking tired it hurts.

She's not physically tired. She still has plenty of energy to move around and do things.

She's not mentally tired either. Her brain is still running a mile a minute.

She's emotionally tired.

She's just so done.

She doesn't wanna have to care, but she does. She can't stop caring. And it's tiring. She cares and she worries and she loves and she hates and it's fucking exhausting!

She just wants to be.

She just wants to exist, without the pressure, without the weight of the world on her shoulders, without the tired.

But life doesn't work like that.

So, she'll pick herself up.

She'll still care. It's not like she stopped.

She'll just fight through the tired.

Because that's all she can do.

Fight the tired.

Pepa what was it like acting in the movie the movie Encanto? I know you and your family acted in it and it’s based off of the generational trauma of your family, but we’re there any parts of the movie that you had a hard time acting in because it was too emotional?

Filming the movie was pretty hard for all of us. It was especially hard for me because I have so many emotional triggers. I needed to think about all those triggers to even get the emotional reaction the production team wanted from me that I would often have to take several breaks from filming a day. One of the hardest scenes for me was the fall of Casita and having to see Mirabel reenact risking her life for the candle. It was already hard to watch the first time and having to watch my youngest niece reenact it was too much for me. Julieta and Felix had to take me to the side after filming to calm me down when they noticed I was getting pale and was about to faint. After we were finished filming the movie, I was feeling a little bit better and I cried when the family and I watched it over for the first time. I also got so many messages from fans about how much they related to me and how I made them feel better about their own mental and emotional issues that I felt better about my own issues after that. I still remember, there was this one girl at a fan meetup that told me about how she has been infantilized, shamed, and desexualized because she was autistic, and how she never had an actually autistic role model and developed internalized ableism throughout her adolescence and college years, but after seeing the movie and seeing me onscreen she said she started healing her relationship with her disability, along with her sexuality after seeing Felix and me act super affectionate onscreen and reminding her of her own relationship. What mattered in the end was that I made a difference in a fan's life.

my mom loves to lie and like she always swears she was NEVER homophobic or anything to me as a child “i even have a gay work friend” but a really funny memory resurfaced recently where i asked if i could use birthday money i had to buy a rainbow flag when i was like ??? 7?? because i LOVED rainbows. and she said no that means something Evil and god will hate you . so what did i do. but ask my grandmom for a rainbow sweater for christmas and proceed to only wear that sweater for three years when it got cold because i didnt like the idea that god hated colors and i wanted to challenge him

just saw the most heartbreaking annabeth take from ep 3

It's 2023 and this joke is still somehow even funnier than ever.

Crocodile finds a strange stray cat an 11-year old Nico Robin (AU where they met 13 years earlier. Robin's been on the run from the World Government for 3 years. Crocodile's 27 and has not set up base in Alabasta yet)

It seems like I have become possessed. By some sort of demon.

alright tumblr, here's your homegrown cowgirl C:{

what do you think of her?

i don't think people really understand what's happening in gaza. with each passing day that sees more and more palestinians dead, it's becoming easier and easier for those in the west to perceive them as nothing more than a statistic. they might engage w the occasional palestine post, sure, but it's just as easy to scroll right past that moments later w no real outrage for the genocide retained.

it's vital to stay reminded that palestinians who are with us today won't be with us tomorrow. it's happening every second of every minute of every hour, and it's relentless. somewhere in gaza a little girl is losing her mother, a little boy is watching his siblings bleed to death, elderly people are infirm with starvation and illness, palestinian women and girls are being sexually assaulted and kept in cages, fathers are leaving tents to find food for their families and not coming back. this is all happening right now, and it's a direct result of the west's complacency. it's a direct result of their not seeing arabs as people worth saving.

it might be hard to compute as a westerner, but this is real. don't let your privilege blind you to your humanity.

I just wanna say bc I KNOW you're somewhere on tumblr, to the teenage girl who attended Take Your Kid To Work Day at an office building in Ontario, Canada circa 2013 and had a conversation with a middle aged woman in which you showed her your Black Veil Brides fanart and fanfics and ship content and told her about different fanfic tropes including a/b/o verse bc she happened to know who Panic! at The Disco and Fallout Boy were and thus you felt the need to show her your bandblr ship art, that was my fucking mother and I had to clarify all that to her including looking my mother in the eye and trying to explain a/b/o verse without sounding like a lunatic.

It's been 10 years and I still regularly sent evil energies in your direction. Since you'd be probably two years younger than me and thus legally an adult now, please know if this post reaches you it's on sight.

I'm so tired of living this way (← girl that will never do anything to change her way of living because breaking the routine scares her more than anything)

Have a meme because I have no self control
