Bad Thoughts

Is it bad

How bad I want

You, out of my head

And in bed with sheets

Tied to knots, tongues

Loose shoes under

Creaky slats and clothes

Strewn--makeshift mini rugs

For the floor left cold

After heated exchanges there

Tantalizingly teasing play before

Moving to a spot with more give

As we give and take and make

The most of an intense attraction

A connection in all its steamy

Glory action; you're satisfyingly good

And it feels oh so good

So who gives a damn

About bad? If it is

Then oh well

Too bad

Derek is apparently announcing something tmrw, praying it's a new series and not more sp

#we all know I'll still read it if it is sp though lmao #stuck in the cycle #I've come too far at this point #derek landy #if it's a tour or merch or something like that then I'm going to be let down #if it's a tv show i will be so incredibly excited #but I doubt it

Listen I am here for the Goncharov marriage being rooted in genuine affection as anyone but when Sofia asks Katya if it was worth getting married and Katya replies "what is marriage but a way to escape the names of our fathers?"

Absolute chills.

#goncharov #and contrast that to icepick joe #and andrei #and goncharov #all stuck in this endless cycle of violence #perpetrated by their fathers #and their fathers #is it any wonder it couldn't have ended any other way?

i carry a yearning i cannot bear alone in the dark—

sylvia plath // tony belobrajdic // he lihuai // @anouri // anna akhmatova // leila chatti // unknown // maya angelou // sam sax // unknown // joy harjo

#let’s hear it for the ppl stuck in a cycle of yearning #the very act of my wanting it was an assurance that i would not get it #web weaving #mine #sylvia plath #tony belobrajdic #he lihuai #anna akhmatova #leila chatti #maya angelou #sam sax #joy harjo #on fear of intimacy #love starved

Whenever people who are entrenched in diet culture talk about how terrible chemicals are, I just want to whip out this:

#diet culture #diet culture tw #described images #image description in alt #'it's got CHEMICALS in it' and so do you! and me too! IT'S ALL CHEMICALS ALL THE WAY DOWN #instead of running from this world we must learn to embrace it #i'm not particularly angry at people who say this because it makes me think that they're incredibly invested in diet culture... #...i just don't want the whole 'food = bad' or 'bodies = bad' to go unchallenged... #...part of the reason why diet culture seems just as prevalent now (if not moreso) is partially because it isn't really... #...challenged or questioned without provocation. it's just assumed to be correct because it makes you 'feel in control' #when chemicals are bad you can control what chemicals you consume. it's individualistic and places the blame onto you for 'being good' #it places responsibility onto the person in such a way that it becomes impossible to fulfill #it isn't that i'm upset that people want to treat their bodies in a way they think is responsible... #...moreso that the *way* they go about it ensures that they're stuck in a cycle of self-blame and even self-hatred #because the METHOD is ineffective. not the desire to treat your body well #also the state of ohio looks stupid and i do Not respect it #it looks like a ball that is simultaneously deflated and over-inflated #also their state flag looks silly to me #it looks like the person who was making it fell asleep making it #i'm just clowning on ohio at this point. have never been to ohio but. are you guys okay

the amazing devil had no right writing the lines "i wish i'd done things different, i wish that i'd been brave" and singing them with their angelic voices while the soft music is playing because they make me sob every fucking time

#i can count on one hand the times i didn't cry while listening to “ruin” #listening to it while feeling down is probably the reason but still #“tomorrow i'll do things different tomorrow i'll be brave” and then tomorrow never comes and i'm stuck in the neverending cycle #the amazing devil #joey batey #madeline hyland #tad #whining for the sake of whining #personal

short passage in “opal” that makes gansey’s minimal appearance in the dreamer trilogy make more sense

#how to hold onto relationships that came to exist in horrible situations #and seem to be stuck there? #how do you move past that with that person? #how can you stop reminding each other of how badly you needed one another? #i cried a lot #trk opal #trk #the raven king #trc #the raven cycle #the raven boys #ronsey #ronan lynch #gansey #td3 #the dreamer trilogy #ronsey 4ever

I love TOA so fucking much. The way it makes it clear that the gods are people. The way it makes us realize that so many of them are victims too. The way it tells us that they might've been victims once, but now they're almost as bad as their abusers

The emotions of a human are not things a god should feel. Apollo says this multiple times. Humans feel bad when they kill others. They love, hate, get angry — they are happy. Their lives are so so short, but they somehow manage to change drastically during them, shaping the world after their image in a different (and sometimes better) way than the gods'

Gods cannot do any of this. Gods are immortal, unchanging, uncaring. Gods leave their children to die. Gods have sex only to abandon their lovers later. Gods are jealous beings, the opposite of good people. Gods are not people at all, is what they want us to think

But Apollo, turned human and far weaker than he ever was, is still a god. He has thousands of years of memory — he is jealous, he abandoned his children and lovers, he sent little kids to do things for him when he could've very easily done it himself. And yet, he cares. He's surprisingly selfless, even if he tries to convince us otherwise, and he loves and has given up on expecting something in return

Apollo is a god. Apollo is the living proof that gods aren't unchanging — he's the reason we know that gods are people. Some very powerful and fucked up people, but people nonetheless

And here's the thing: Apollo's given up on all that, a long time before we see him for the first time. The gods used to care. But their caring brought pain and despair upon the world and they don't seem to realize (or maybe they just don't care. Ha. Pun) that their uncaring attitude is doing the exact same thing

Even if they could, some of them wouldn't visit their children. They're not good people, after all. But they can try

Apollo wants to try. He wants to change for the better, and this isn't something good for a god, but he still does. And I think that the other gods could too, some day

#me shaking the gods violently: BREAK THE CYCLE BREAK THE CYCLE BREAK THE CYCLE BREAK THE-- #“immortals are unchanging“ no they fuck they are NOT #c'mon guys. you've been stuck in this abuser-victim limbo for millennia. let go of it #me shaking the gods violently again: LET YOURSELVES FEEL you are PEOPLE you are FLAWED and you need to CHILL TF OUT #pjo #toa #trials of apollo #percy jackson #apollo #lester papadopoulos #rick riordan #riordanverse #avis' post

I've trapped myself in a loop.

#to be clear: similar vibe and/or humor #They're all so good but I do need a fifth #wooden overcoats #fawx & stallion #the kingmaker histories #victoriocity #WO may seem less intuitive here but it's the cycle I'm stuck in.

“As always, there was an all-American war hero look to him, coded in his tousled brown hair, his summer-narrowed hazel eyes, the straight nose that ancient Anglo-Saxons had graciously passed on to him. Everything about him suggested valor and power and a firm handshake.” - Maggie Stiefvater, The Raven Boys
