Do I remember what important email I was supposed to send this morning that I definitely forgot to send? No, I do not.
But do I remember the order of taxonomy from tenth grade biology? Sure do!
Kingdom phylum class order family genus species, my bitches! Learn it, live it, love it.

You can anything you put your mind to it ♥️
“And once again he felt happiness slide through his fingers…”
Like a reckless prospector who, inspecting the soils, dropped flakes of gold along with the dirt in his impatience.
Like the soft strands he never got to comb through.
Like the pages he used to flip back and forth with fervor, ever starving for knowledge, that suddenly felt so heavy he fatigued to turn them and dreaded seeing the next wall of words, words, words, empty words, everything felt pointless without that challenging smirk and intrigued look giving him a push, but he didn't go through a goddamned war and back for his life to turn out pointless, he decided, as his finger toyed with the dial, not quite turning it but almost.
He would get there; a few more restless nights and lessons spent pondering what did and could happen, maybe just another flunked exam as a consequence… or, or maybe he could for fucking once have the guts he always admired in him.
Rattle of the dial turning all the way to zero and back was still ringing in his ears as the operator asked him for a name.

“The great Roman statesman Cicero exchanged many loving letters with his wife, Terentia, during their thirty-year marriage. But that didn’t stop him from divorcing her when she was no longer able to support him in the style to which he had become accustomed.“ (X)
ok 1. I dont think thats what happened not even because we’ll never know about the motivations of some historical figures but mainly because there could have been so many other reasons Cicero and Terentia’s marriage broke down altho yeah money probably contributed to it
but 2. Gold-digger Cicero and his sugar mommy Terentia is such a funny take that i actually think it should be true so im supporting this
