I want to live by the ocean but also in a forest but also in the mountains but also in a big city but also in the countryside , you feel me ?
Btw id prefer you people treat me like the stranger that I am and not elevate me to pseudo-friend just because you overhear my e-conversations and see my e-diary entries. Mutuals however are allowed to attack and kill me in multiple different manners, if they can catch me
make the OC with acne!! make the OC with that one weird scar you’re self conscious about!! make the OC with your lopsided ears, your crooked jaw, your uneven nose, your keratosis pilaris, your stretchmarks and your imperfections. make the OC you’re scared to make because it’s ‘self indulgent’ or ‘romanticizing your own body’.
make the OC. give yourself that love.

“Be alone. Eat alone, take yourself on dates, sleep alone. In the midst of this you will learn about yourself. You will grow, you will learn what inspires you. You will cultivate your own dreams, your own beliefs, your own stunning clarity. And when you do meet the right person who makes your cells dance, you will be sure of it because you are sure of yourself.”
— Bianca Sparacino
Receiving handwritten letters from your beloved? In this economy? Sign me the fuck up
Nothing I’ve read has changed me more than “you do people a favor by accepting their help” like I repeat this constantly to so many people because it’s true!!! People like to feel useful, they like to feel kind, they like to feel like they have an ability to impact people’s lives so just let them!! Not everything is a thing to be owed back — accept people’s kindness without making a competition out of it
When I was a kid, the "Oh my god, you got so big!" comment from grown-ups used to really annoy me, because it felt broadly infantilising. But now, as an adult myself, I realise it had very little to do with me, and almost everything to do with said grown-up feeling suddenly attacked by the passage of time, yet not wanting to blurt out "shit, fuck, I just pissed away like four years of my life without noticing, then, huh?" in front of an 8-year-old.
