You know that Ada Limón poem where she’s like “i can’t help it i love the way men love”? my dad recently confessed to me that he became a shoemaker because they buried my grandma shoeless

Accident Report in the Tall, Tall Weeds - Ada Limón

oh man i never told you. recently we went to the albertina art gallery and in the contemporary wing we saw this painting, “nacht der skorpione”

and we were fucking blown away by it, like audible gasping from everyone, it’s almost as tall as the room and incredibly expressive and impressive

and after having walked around looking at the work of 99% male artists and their endless studies dedicated to The Female Form for so goddamn long my very first thought upon seeing it was “this was painted by a woman”, so i walk closer and sure enough, i was right, her name is xenia hausner.

and then i look at it for a moment longer and my chest swells because these are intense characters with internal lives and that is what makes them attractive and my second thought is “this was not painted by a straight woman”

and i mean i can’t say anything for sure but i looked her up and

and nobody else picked up on this in the original painting? when i told them they were like “what, why, because of the masculine (???) brush strokes”? they were not shaken to their very core by the authenticity of it? what i’m trying to say is gaydar is extremely real and straight people extremely do not have it.

the fact that we need 8 hours of sleep is ridiculous we should only need 4 and the other 4 should be used to be cozy in your bed and rub your legs together like a cricket and listen to music and think about your little scenarios

i feel like th is never gets included with funny anachronistic bts period piece photos but it’s one of my absolute favorites like yeah anne shirley cuthbert would want a fuckin frappuccino or whatever, she would LOVE it

EDIT:

i would like to formally apologize to the canadians of tumblr for calling what is “clearly” a tim hortons iced capp “a frappuccino or whatever”. i was ignorant of your culture and i know that is no excuse for my flippant words. i have had tim hortons exactly once, at the vancouver airport in 2018, and i failed to eidetically recall the entirety of their menu and that’s on me.

when you're a child and you stay up past your bedtime you get punished by your parents, when you're an adult and you stay up too late you just get punished by the ghosts and spirits and demons and such

there's only one thing worse than an awful book, and that is an awful book with ONE tantalisingly compelling element

[mbrainspaz]

an awful book is nothing. You can put it down and never think of it again. An awful book with ONE idea that perfectly captures your imagination can chip your soul out through your eyes with every sloppy syntax error and gaping plot hole while you scream, unable to look away
