If homosexuality is a sin, then why is my Spotify wrapped full of fucking bangers???
if your s/o wears all black, gets excited over shiny things, screams loudly at sunset
that isn’t your s/o
that is a crow
i want to be this person when i become a history teacher
i LOVE how unapologetically eccentric academics are they’re just on another level all the time... the head of my university’s history department ends every one of her emails with her ‘potato quote of the week’. i want to have that energy <3

My current aeshtetic is going through dark academia posts romanticising studying while procrastinating my homework
concept: you had just graduated the year before and you bring your girlfriend to one of your high schools football games because you were in marching band and then you can explain the game and the halftime show to her while freezing on bleachers and then get burning hot chocolate and popcorn from the snack stand ,,
bruh
All philosophy is modern in the sense that it is based on the knowledge and perspective available to the thinker at the time; In that very same sense, all philosophy is outdated

if life works out the way it should, we will all find reasons to live and reasons to love and that’s going to make all of this, all of everything, worth it. even that thing that’s bugging you it’s gonna be worth it because life will work out just watch.
stay alive.
Not because your mother will cry at your loss but because the sun will come out tomorrow and you will not be there to appreciate it. Stay alive because the path will go somewhere exciting and you will not be able to experience it.
Stay alive because your favourite band might release a new song. Or your favourite series might be renewed for a new season. Stay alive because there are twenty thousand more series to hold you in your gloomy days.
Stay alive.
Not because your father will blame himself his whole life but you have a whole world out there for you to see. Because your coffee mug is sitting there waiting to be filled.
Stay alive because your older self is waiting for you to grow up as a wonderful person your father may not be. Stay alive because all the rights are waiting for you to fix them because nobody but you can do it.
Stay alive because the moon is there for you. The stars in the darkest of night need you to look up and admire them.
stay alive.
Not because your siblings will hold your clothes and remember you but your clothes need you to remove their emptiness. The next burger you are going to eat is waiting for you out there. Stay alive because a part of the air around you is reserved only for you to breathe.
Stay alive because a spot in front of the Eiffel Tower where you are standing needs to be in your album. Your streets are waiting for you to come for a walk with headphones on. Your favourite songs are waiting for you to give them that unmatchable attention.
stay alive.
Not because your lover will lose his/her half, but because of those roses in the garden waiting with love to be plucked for love. For that unwritten parchment that wants to be painted with your affection even if no one ever reads it.
Stay alive for the imaginations you have before your sleep and for the dance under the sky you want. For the days you laughed at your own jokes and the days you could not love yourself more.
Stay alive for your bedroom because it will never be the same without you. For the winds because they will never touch any skin in the same way. For the sky because no one will go crazier as you do seeing it changing colours. For the moon and the stars, you see so adoringly that they shine a little brightly for you. For all the songs who you have given a place in your heart. For all your favourite series you carry with you. For all the clothes you wear daily. For the rays of sun you love on your face and for the life that beats within you.
Stay alive for you.
Best thing you can do for yourself? Stop giving a fuck.
Literally all the things people judge about you and you judge about others doesn’t mean shit. Beauty is nothing but taught torture. We’re taught to hate our noses because there’s something we can buy to “fix” it. We’re taught to hate “fat” because there’s something we can buy to remove it. YOURE BEING TAUGHT TO HATE YOURSELF. YOURE BEING TAUGHT THIS SO YOU BUY MORE SHIT. If you fully understand that vanity means absolutely nothing if it doesn’t make you feel good, you start to realize how useless it is to judge based on looks. And others who judge start to look less important because you understand their mindset is in a completely different place. You owe absolutely no one anything. Why die thinking you didn’t enjoy yourself based on how your looks “held” you back? Humans are more than the rodents we’re convinced we are.
am i going to continue my quest to watch supernatural? maybe ? did i start four years ago and only get through four seasons? yes ?

anyone else remember when in elementary school the teachers let us pretend vote between obama and mitt romney and kids got into fights about who is better like this is such a fever dream please tell me someone else remembers this because id like that to happen in highschool rn
11 year old me, very much a baby sapphic but high on compulsory heterosexuality: i just think it’s so sweet that ginny and luna were such good friends in harry potter. like luna was always talking about how nice ginny was and ginny stopped some boys who were picking on luna. like imagine being this nerdy kid and then your friend who happened to be a boss female athlete stops people from making fun of you. wish that was me. imagine them having sleepovers and braiding each others hair and always listening to and appreciating each other and giving each other hugs and luna painting a picture of the two of them bc that girl is an artist and ginny being so touched and hanging it in her room next to the pictures of gwenog jones. just two gals being the best of pals. plus ginny’s a redhead and girls with red hair are soooooooooooo pretty, wish my mom would let me dye my hair red so i could achieve that level of prettiness.
Fuck it *becomes a mushroom*
Lets say, hypothetically, my lover's got humor..... and for the sake of debate... lets say, she's the giggle at a funeral.
girls are so pretty like they can just do simple things like breathing and inside all i think is ‘oh my goodness she’s breathing’ and wow girls really do be out here breathing sometimes
I want to fall in love with life again. Like looking forward to waking up and seeing the sun rising in the sky, tending to my pets after making my bed. Making breakfast again while listening to music, looking forward to what the day has to offer and enjoying the peace. I want to explore what nature has to offer, and go for walks and take in all of the serene beauty. I want to make gifts for the people I care about and give back to the world. And at the end of the day over a nice dinner, I can watch the sun set and see the stars and just know that things will be okay and that I am alright to be here.
They share food and bite off of the same side what are they trying to prove? They love? They are completely comfortable with each other?? Boyfriends??
dan and phil are a social experiment designed to torment single gays with their love
the earth's crispy crust allows we humans to trot our tender little hooves all over it without being scorched by magma
When I say "I hope we all make it" I don't actually mean everyone. I mean people who suffer because of racism, xénophobia, sexism, misogyny, who are refugees, immigrants of any type, lgbt people who deal with queer and transphobia every single day, ppl who get shit of any kind because of their religion, ppl who have to try 5 times as hard because they come from broken families, families with addiction problems, who are abused, were abused, who can't affort to pay for their basic needs, who can't afford an education.
There are so many of us, sometimes I forget people who don't experience any of those things actually exist but the fact is they do and 9 out of 10 will never wan't to do anything about it.
So yeah, I hope we all make it, and fuck anyone who tries to stop us.
fall aesthetic: unruly curls. deeply flushed cheeks. subtle smoked eyes. bitten nose hidden behind a novel. spectacles tuck into a knitted cardigan. dried flowers resting behind an ear. cocoa with your dearest fur baby. scribbling random thoughts in a journal. dark boots and dainty ballets. loud giggles and cherished moments.
we love only looking at schools in blue states with good lgbt+ ratings aha
I genuinely like my dark circles? Makes me feel like a true academic, we love the whole slightly disheveled and unhinged academic vibe in this house 👏🏻
they look so friendly
How come I was today years old when I learned that eels had a larval stage and it looks like this-
WAT.
I've survived a lot of things, and I'll probably survive this.
