The Stone Floor Of A Church In Brittany, France Comes Alive With Color As Morning Sun Filters Through

I want a cat so bad! I keep seeing cute cat pictures and most of the time I'm just like "awe that's precious" and move on, but then there's the posts about having just adopted a cat and already it's loving on them and I waaaaant! I want a floofy and weird little buddy! Soon as I have a house amd everything settled I'm gonna look at how feasible it would be for me to have a cat too

I spent the first half of my life being told to just Be The Bigger Person in every situation and therefore I have now completely burned out on that, so fuck you it's now goblin hours forever

Reflections of serenity

My favorite part about being sapphic is when the things I love about other women become things I love about myself. One day I was tracing another woman’s stretch marks in a dim bedroom light. And then, seemingly by accident, I was doing it to myself in my bathroom mirror. I loved the feeling of a full hand of flesh when I grabbed a woman’s hips, and then mine didn’t need to be so skinny anymore. I looked at a woman’s lower stomach pudge and thought it was so soft and cute, then never wanted a flat stomach again. Loving women can be so healing when you come from a world that doesn’t.

what is your eye color. what is your favorite color. what is the color that appears most frequently in your wardrobe. what color is your favorite blanket. what color is your water bottle.

I wonder what our life would look like if we actually lived like there's no tomorrow. We want to do something? We do it today. Tomorrow doesn't exist, it's an arbitrary concept that we can put anything that's outside of our daily norm into in order to worry about it later. I'm tired of tomorrow. I'm tired of waiting. And I'm tired of being too tired to do anything today

We are all just some guys going about our day to day, even the conservative uncles and woke kings out there are just some people who every once in a while talk about other people and what they think is right in the world. Sure some people are selfish and hostile about it, and some people are trying to bring more awareness to hoe others are hurting and how we can avoid hurting each other, but at the end of the day, we're all just a bunch of people doing people things

you guys are so annoying. why do i have to see discourse every year that's like "was tolkien really a woke king or was he your conservative uncle?" the guy was a devout catholic and a genteel misogynist who maintained lifelong friendships with queer people and women, and this isn't even paradoxical because that was part of the upper-class oxford culture he was immersed in. tolkien told the nazis to fuck off (and in doing so demonstrated a real understanding of what racism is and why it's harmful, beyond simply "these guys are bad news because they're who my country is at war with right now") but his inner life was marked by internalized racism that is deeply and inextricably woven into the art that he made. he foolishly described himself as an anarcho-monarchist, and it's kind of crazy to see people on this website passionately arguing that he likely never meaningfully engaged with anarchist theory, because...yeah, no shit, of course he didn't. tolkien didn't have to engage with most sociopolitical theory because as an upper-class englishman of his position, he was never affected by any of the issues that this theory is concerned with. what is plainly obvious from reading both his fiction and letters is that tolkien's ideal political system was that the divinely ordained god-king would rise up and rule in perfect justice and humility; he didn't want a government, he wanted a king arthur, even though (obviously) he was aware that outcome was impossible. why is it so hard for people to accept that he was just some guy! his letters aren't a code you have to crack. no amount of arguing or tumblr-level analysis is going to one day reveal a rhetorically airtight internally consistent worldview spanning jrrt's fiction, academic work, and personal writings, thereby "solving" the question of whether he was a woke king or your conservative uncle. his ideology was extremely inconsistent because, at the end of the day, he was just some guy.
