thinking about this guy in knew in college who had to get eye surgery and he was bummed about it for a number of reasons but mostly bc he was a big reader and he wouldn’t be able to read for a while so his roommates all recorded themselves reading his favorite book and gave it to him for his birthday and just like.... that’s love y’all

cats don’t know what words mean and i love that about them. i can say “you are a beautiful little angel child and i love you more than anything else in the entire world” but also “you wretched little clown bastard. you’ve created such a big mess and now i have to clean it because i have hands and you don’t. this is god’s cruelest joke.” and they don’t care they just say :3 and put their little paws on me

I think something that doesn’t get talked about enough is the way that being gay can put you in more dangerous situations with relationships. so many times gay people are just happy that someone is interested in them that there isn’t as much consideration of if that person is good for them, because hey, at least they’re gay too and that worries me a lot :/

just because you CAN date someone doesn't mean you SHOULD

I literally cannot overstate how important creative hobbies are when dealing with mental illness. If you can’t draw, there are coloring books. If you can’t write a novel, you can write in short journaling bursts. If you can’t sing in the shower, you can listen to music. Sometimes with mental illness it feels like we have this dark presence inside of us that is bumping around in our brain and organs, causing problems. It helps immensely to let it out.

i care rly dearly abt silly things but they make me happy so thats ok

i aspire to be the gentlest person in any room
