Jodi Picoult, My Sister's Keeper
— N.M. Sanchez
At work: "when I get home I WILL create something!"
*Gets home*
short walk in the sun momentarily heals local woman who hasn't felt real since she was 7
loudly going "YOU'RE GOOD YOU'RE GOOD" to myself to ward off the memory of every embarrassing thing i've ever done
The generation gap between me and ppl of my own age
i'm both dumber and smarter than you think so don't underestimate me because i'm actually smart about a lot of stuff but also don't be surprised if i'm dumb about some other stuff hope that helps

Being overstimulated is such a weird thing to explain to people. Like "hey sorry, I'm not mad at you and this is nobody's fault and I'm not blaming anyone for it happening, I am aware this is a part of regular everyday life but I am mentally crumbling because There Have Been Things Happening nonstop for 5 hours straight back to back with no breaks, and I really need to sit down in complete silence for like 15-25 minutes, after which I will be completely fine and can proceed as normal. But if I'm not allowed to have that, I will resort to violence."
i need to get addicted to completing tasks
just wanna leave all responsibilities behind and eat fresh fruits and pastries by the ocean and feel the sun on my skin right now
–Colette, tr. by Matthew Ward, from The Collected stories; “The Accompanist”.
I mean yeah I carry a sadness that exhausts my will to live like a leach on my heart but I’m basically fine

i love when girls make no sense. Literally me too
I love when information revealed at the end of a story recontextualizes something said or done at the beginning. Like yes queen make the story a loop let the story keep developing even though the book is closed and the credits are rolling. The story never ends it just starts over.
you’re an older sibling ?? and what for ??? your younger sibling becoming taller than you ????
