platonic love is so underrated, and sometimes half the things the women in my life say to me make me feel so much, would a man compare??? I was talking to my bestie about perfection and if such a thing can exist? And she just shrugged and simply said, “well you’re perfect to me so such a thing must be possible” 😭

I saw Sleep Token last night, yes it did cement the fact that I need to be spayed,, like the sounds released from me were not healthy, and would have had me institutionalised 100 years ago

Obsessed with the AU concept of Cassian discovering anti-histamines and not realising their strength. Nesta walking by and seeing Cassian sneezing and gasping over his throat, then 15 minutes later walking back the same way and he’s just.. passed out, like dead to the world
(Rhys is concerned and confiscates his supply, this feels like a security risk)

Hi yes I just saw Rebecca F. Kuang at the opera house and I did lose my mind. Truly my favourite author and such a funny, well-spoken person. I love her and her thoughts 💗

Reading dark romance on International Women’s Day, I’m so sorry I’d like to apologise to my mother and my ancestors and all the women in my life

Is it a requirement for all dark romance to be badly written? 😭 I mean this in the most genuine way possible. Every dark romance book I’ve read has been (of course) the most outrageous and illegal combo of troupes and sexism, but the plot is always just a means to accomplish taboo smut. and it’s like the authors lean into that? they know the audience isn’t expecting a literary masterpiece, so their writing and plot is just mediocre at best. I’m literally begging any of you to recommend a single good dark romance book to me

I’m reading The Never King series rn and it’s objective trash and im hating it, BUT there is something truly so funny about Vane constantly throwing homegirl across the room, disrespecting her and not taking her shít. like yes, this is exactly how we should be treating people who don’t know the meaning of the word no

Sometimes I look at my mother and it’s like “all I want to do is make you proud.” “Why does your affection smother me?” I want to rest my head in her lap but being at home exhausts and suffocates me. She loves me but sometimes doesn’t understand me. I have so much respect and admiration for her, you’re from a different time. My internal voice is my mother kissing me on the forehead and insulting me in the name of love

y’know that Andrew Garfield quote that’s like “what is grief if not love preserving?” I’m needing to hear and remind myself of that right now

sometimes I feel so misunderstood and unknown by the world. I am both terrified of vulnerability and yet I yearn to be understood. But then I read Mahmoud Darwish’s poetry and thoughts and it’s like yes! I am known, I am not alone.

Sometimes I write (quite) eloquent paragraphs & essays analysing characters and metaphors and passages from books that moved me,, sometimes I brainrot word vomit headcanons and theories into my tumblr drafts until I feel physically sick missing imagined people - there is no in between
