what part of your life is defined by the point where you have nothing else to do so you just walk around aimlessly through a cemetery at eight in the morning, looking at each individual grave with a fascination that is partially wanting to see how eroded certain stone types are compared to graves of the same age and partially a sense of intense knowing about how intimate and lonely the act of being dead is? because I don't know, am I eighty, walking through the plot where I will soon be buried along with my family members, longing to understand what feeling my loved ones will experience when they soon have to walk this same path in mourning? or am I an indie teen who takes too many aesthetic photos in the graveyard while trying to gain a sense of beauty around death and honor the deceased?

So my dad is growing his "quarantine beard" (he's never grown a beard before) and his mustache area and sideburns are growing in ginger while the rest is stark white and I called it a "Todoroki beard" and he was beyond delighted and won't stop calling it that
