i think it's great when someone tries to pull off a tragic self-sacrifice in a story and there's at least one guy who's just like "no this is fucking stupid actually. you're an idiot." about it. because it kind of is. i love a good tragedy but let's be honest with ourselves if a friend tried to indulge a noble sacrifice fantasy would you not be a little annoyed. like come on man.

critically jacking off to this problematic fic in a scholarly manner

sorry my family didn’t teach me that i have a place among others so now i’m weird . sorry

Cats are great for when you want a little freak to slink around your house

皆さん　なんでそんな　オレのねこぽーち　好きなんです？

Excuse me everyone, why you like my cat pouch so much?

I love the "came back wrong" trope but from the opposite side.

Imagine you are dead. And then you are RIPPED from the embrace of decay into the world of the living again. Your memories are hazy and you don't recognize any of these people, but they act like they're close to you? Like they love you? So you try to get your memories back, to act like you belong here, but everybody tries to forget you died. And you can't. It is omnipresent. And just trying to grapple with that fact pushes the people who "love" you away, and they're incapable of understanding, and they're so confused, what's wrong N̶̄̀O̶͛͗T̷̉́ ̷͋͝Y̴̎̌Ȍ̴̈U̸̓R NÄM̴̃͑E̵̾̇? And you just need them to understand, you aren't that person! You aren't! You don't know who that person is! You don't know why any of this is happening, but they're unwilling to bend, they keep insisting you are that person, your memories will come back, everything will be normal again, and you want to scream and cry and claw yourself open to show them you're different. Your existence as a being wholly separate from whoever you "used to be" is a sin unto itself. All you can do is scrabble for life and to them, you're killing whoever they loved to do it.

just. lots of fun in that concept, you know?

experiencing hallucinations is nowhere near as interesting or intriguing as horror media hypes it up to be btw its mostly just annoying as fuck. like okay skinless body i see out of the corner of my vision you got me the first time but this shits gettin old pack it up......

"oh you have hallucinations that must be so scary 😲" actually the scariest part about having hallucinations isnt the Horrors its the stupid shit. its the thinking that your phone is always ringing or vibrating THATS the freakiest. in reality the lamest parts about it are the Hat Man shit because after a while it doesnt feel like anything scary. its just like on the same level of annoyance as a white theater kid reciting the lyrics from a hamilton rap at you

i love that the tags on this have boiled down to "i cant stand the tooth man" like were talking about a really annoying stupid coworker besides the water cooler and all nodding in agreement like yeah fuck the tooth man why doesnt he get a job

i dont want any more emails

im just fucking with you my liege

i HAVE to stop looking at shelter cats until i'm moved but BUNNY

bunny is still there and apparently hasn't been adopted because she's very skittish and shy but so AM I

i assume they don't put cats on layaway but i might go this weekend to see if i can say hi, at least. and then bring her home on, like, june 5th when i'm all moved and settled if she's still there.

bunny 1.5 years and a few pounds later

Please appreciate this chap I've seen in the St John's College in Cambridge (I was in the area for a job interview and was doing some touristy things; this is my best picture of the trip by far).

I hope he brightens your day. The bestest scholar.

"someone who allows you to rest" is the relationship dynamic of all time

A parent that welcomes you back home after things have fallen apart. A best friend whose voice alone who can make you relax. A spouse who convinces you to stay in bed an extra hour and leave the dishes for later. A stranger who sees you tired and gives up their seat on the train. Augh. The humanity of it

omg ok put in the tags a food that makes u feel like life is worth living when you eat it. like u eat it and it’s soo good and everything’s fine actually

ppl who say pasta why are u boring. good for u though

Hm. *debunks you*

Grrrr... >:(

Absolute biggest bipedal fuck-up is that we can't lie down and look forward comfortably.

Dogs and cats and cows are out there lying down in the grass and just seeing everything and what do we have? Lie on your stomach and fuck up your neck? Lie on your back and shove 400 pillows under your head? Lie on your side and just accept everything's fucking sideways? I hate this fucking evolutionary form

Becoming one of those deranged "I trained myself to move around like a horse" tiktokkers but it's just how to lie down and look forward at the same time.

I want what he has

can we go back to the trained themselves to move like a horse tiktokkers

im going to be violently ill because i cant be a knight who does quests for a living. it isnt fair.
