the 5 love languages: song recommendations, parallel play, talking about The Character, offering to kill each other’s parents, gifting little trinkets

I bring a sort of "can't read social cues" vibe to every social situation that I can't tell if anyone likes or not

heartbreaking:

girl has sooooooo many ambitions and ideas for projects but can only get 1.5 basic tasks done per day

man who opened a parenthesis he forgot to close 4 years ago is tragically unaware everything he's said since has been an aside

Sucks that "sleeping together" refers to sex. Sometimes a fella just wants to snooze with a pal.

i want to be a sweet and friendly girl but there’s all this anxiety. and the horrors

and rage

As Tumblrinas we’ve surely witnessed the evolution of music consumption into a participatory process.

Naturally, we looked into it on JSTOR and found this 61-page, open access chapter about the state of music post-internet.

Enjoy 🎧

nothing beats the feeling of finally checking out a classic piece of media you've heard about thousands of times & after you're done you're just like "damn, they weren't lying"

some of you have a very different definition of "classic" than me

by classic i mean like, a crystalized relic of the canon that is referenced so much by everyone that it stops feeling like a work of art & more like a figure of speech, the feeling im describing is of witnessing the crystallized meme become art again. its more than just finding out something "lives up to the hype" its actually having that century defining experience directly impact your soul when thus far it has only been an abstract point of reference

One of the best writing advice I have gotten in all the months I have been writing is "if you can't go anywhere from a sentence, the problem isn't in you, it's in the last sentence." and I'm mad because it works so well and barely anyone talks about it. If you're stuck at a line, go back. Backspace those last two lines and write it from another angle or take it to some other route. You're stuck because you thought up to that exact sentence and nothing after that. Well, delete that sentence, make your brain think because the dead end is gone. It has worked wonders for me for so long it's unreal
