I am v afraid of anarchists they’re always like “watch out I’m gonna do community aid” and “read the bread book” and “hey wanna car pool I’ll throw in gas money” and “have you seen this anime it’s so good” and “hey I wrote a poem want to see it?” and

I accepted that I’m not gonna be an academic and it’s spun into a full existential crisis, which means that some part of me thought I may be an exception and get a job at some point. This has to be the most embarrassing part.

It’s my husband’s birthday here are some of his best qualities: 1. Professional copy editor who will proofread anything I need. 2. Scared of bugs so I get to kill them and feel all masc. 3. Goes to bed incredibly early so I don’t have to stay out late.
