catholic emperors would name themselves “pope innocent” “pope clement” “pope never did anything wrong” “pope tiny little baby” “pope good guy” and then commit atrocities
Sometimes being an artist is feeling like a baker seeing a chemist making the deadliest liquid in the world and wishing you could make the deadliest liquid as well but you're a baker, not a chemist, and then you feel like your bread is worthless
If it helps, as a writer with artist friends often feels like being a chemist surrounded by bakers. I'll spend ages coming up with a hypothesis and then lock myself away for weeks or months only to emerge with a small vial of glowing liquid. Yes it took a lot of work, and yes I'm proud that I've created it, but it pales when I look across at the bakers. In the same time, they've made so many delicious things that make living a delight. Chances are they've fed me and kept me from despair while I was locked in my lab. And I envy their wonderful craft.

some others i found in the notes
"Ne'er do well."
"what?"
"it's french."
"french?"
"Take Italian, take Spanish. Subtract Spanish from Italian. Add english, ketamine and wine. Or its backwards."
"... What."
"Exactly."
"... Why does it exist."
"same reason there's a language composed of whistles."
"... Excuse me?"
"You heard me."
I’m appalled and really can’t believe all the tasteless jokes about the Titanic submarine.
Seriously, how can people sink so low?
Who would you be in a horror movie?

Thanks for the tag! Also tagging anyone who wants in
I got the whore!
Wanted to look like I am just straight up not having a good time and forgot to grab a weapon so I guess I'm choking you with my thighs [I got the killer]
Appropriate, I think! Featuring: my new tan (I go outside now)
I got the whore. Not sure if it really applies to me, but this was fun!
I got the killer. I’d definitely love to play a character like that in a movie, but it doesn’t really fit my irl personality. (CRYING BECAUSE THEY DONT HAVE AN AVIATOR GLASSES OPTION)
@pestidunce @aroseforcaulfield @ronironimakaroni If you’d like!!<3
This fucks actually. Reblog to shank me
Interesting. Especially since my fight or flight instinct is freeze. But hey, maybe🤷
The funny thing is that I’m asexual, I definitely ain’t a whore.
Yeah this was pretty dope. (Though I'm surprised you didn't get the killer DJ)
Look at me, all bundled up. I'm surprised I wouldn't be dead considering I'm weak af. Idk how I'm the tragic hero, but oh well. Guess everyone I've ever loved is dead.

Hardly any bird species is as variable in plumage coloration as the buzzard. Mice, lizards, frogs, grasshoppers and earthworms are at the top of its menu.
watching people debate each other over how NO TWITTER WAS BETTER FOR ARTISTS NO TUMBLR IS BETTER FOR ARTISTS AHHH THE ENGAGEMENT and all i can think is “i’ve had better luck on tumblr than twitter actually but i don’t think my experiences can speak for everyone’s else’s experiences either”
Also it’s baffling to act like people negging artists about their prices weren’t around on twitter, those fuckers were EVERYWHERE
