midsommar isn’t even that scary. If I was on vacation and everyone was obsessed with me I wouldn’t care who got burnt in a barn.

I wish people into fisting understood that the general population has no interest in what we do, so when we speak we are speaking only to each other. The delusion that fisting is something powerful is a straight line to all kinds of toxic positivities that are really just us lyin

In the Sun also Rises the characters drink Pernod and champagne. They drink brandy with soda. They take day trips out of the city. They write good books but not great books. Brett and Mike are poly. Jake is impotent. This book really is about Philadelphia huh

these are my exact thoughts about writing. And I don’t think it’s a negative opinion. Writing isn’t inherently important or worthwhile bc it’s an artistic expression. Powerful writing stops you and forces you to listen. It pulls you out of your own mind.

literature doesn’t need moral characters or valuable lessons or strong images or a unique voice. the only requirement for literature is that it’s 600-1000 words and some guy published it on a website.
