Quote
When you have such a dreadful thing looming over you, you have no right to make others share it without their knowledge, you have no right to pass on to them your disease, you have no right to let them slide into your abyss without their noticing, you have no right to let your red jacket trail over them, you have no right cunningly to foist your own wretchedness on the happiness of others.
Victor Hugo, Les Misérables (transl. C. Donougher)

In the photographic light the wretchedness of the houses had a stern kind of clarity or beauty, like old men's faces in the sun. Their roofs sagged and their walls leaned with a human resignation, and they had voices: quarreling and gossiping and singing.
Ross MacDonald, The Ivory Grin

Do You Ruminate?
NO DOUBT SOME OF you tend to “ruminate” or mull over things of the past. Maybe you see a benefit to revisiting the past—doubling back, running the tape again. In the thinking sense, rumination is seen as something we should avoid in the interest of our mental health. Why fret over spilled milk? But I just want to chew on it, you might say, thinking of learning from your past. Maybe you remember…

if you are a ten hater while shipping him with martha then you can shut the fuck up about people “hating” on martha (no one actually hates her, y’all love to play victim) for being on his side. idc he will always be more popular than her anyways and thank god 🤟
you people are so obsessed with tenmarthas and for what. ten's not gonna fuck you.
you are seriously dickmatized by david tennant if you can't acknowledge that the way he treated martha was shitty. and you're watching the show with your eyes closed if you think we're supposed to be on his side all the time.
i am fucking glad martha's not more popular, because you people love to suck every last ounce of nuance out of complicated and interesting characters, so yeah, thank god.

yeah so it's looking more and more that the transgender historical romance regions do not have what I desire, but the transgender historical horror regions certainly do!

Would [Deungmyung's mom] lose it? So what, if she does? Not like she is going to take responsibility for my happiness.

it’s so crazy and dystopian that average conversations these days on social media are abt whether or not a group of random ass people have the right to be alive or if they should all just be indiscriminately murdered and bombed and die the most painful death

BEDTIME AFFIRMATIONS the night is more scared of you than you are of it. approach with confidence and it will see no need to threaten you. sleep is a beast who can be tamed by friendly encounters. blankets and pillows possess a naturally welcoming temperament and feel fulfilled by their life's purpose, you can create a mutually beneficial relationship with regular care and maintenance.

learning someone you follow lives in the same area is cool but I wish it were one of my mutuals so we could hang out (<- she has no time to hang out either way)

I love following the Scarlet Hollow tag because every so often I’ll see a post about how terrible and wrong and unfair it is that the ghost of Charlie Shaw Jr. demands years off your life where I’m sitting here like, oh yeah no problem dude. This makes sense, to me.
I’m always more uncomfortable during the choice between Duke & Gretchen in Episode 1!
Anyway it just makes me laugh. YOU guys might be bothered by paying for the sins of your past. Not me, though.
