finished happy place and miss emily henry has done it again:
“My best friends taught me a new kind of quiet, the peaceful stillness of knowing one another so well you don’t need to fill the space. And a new kind of loud: noise as a celebration, as the overflow joy of being alive, here, now.”

ppl post this sort of positivity that’s like “bi ppl w a preference for women are valid bi ppl w a preference for men are valid” and yeah sure but also, hyperanalyzing your bisexuality is not necessary. the fact that you’ve dated or liked or slept w more men or more women doesn’t have to say anything abt your bisexuality. your bisexuality does not have to be measured and counted and have a pie diagram showing gender percentages. you can just be bisexual

i hate hardcover books. i need a thick mass produced paperback i bought from a used book store for 2 dollars whose spine is cracked to hell and back and has “judy — love you always! — rosalind, 1973″ written on the inside cover with lots of lines highlighted and “!!!!!” and nearly illegible cursive annotations in the margins beside them and a random receipt from a long since closed restaurant stuck in the middle somewhere. otherwise whats the point
Rejection sensitive dysphoria is wild. Someone will be like "hey just so you know the thing you did was a little bit loud/uncomfortable/insensitive but it's ok I know you didn't mean it" and my brain will instantly translate "you should be shot"
“Bilinguals overwhelmingly report that they feel like different people in different languages. It is often assumed that the mother tongue is the language of the true self. (…) But, if first languages are reservoirs of emotion, second languages can be rivers undammed, freeing their speakers to ride different currents.”
