When I was in college, and experimenting with poetry, I had a friend who pissed me off. I once wrote him a poem because he kept trying to steal my girlfriend. He was a bit of a shit bag, happy to say our friendship didn't last longer than two semesters, but at one point he said something about

There’s always hope to be found when the canvas surrounding you is blank. There’s always hope upon the snow; there’s always hope that February’s grip will end soon. There is hope that a leaf upon the snow is a sign of strength. There is hope everywhere.

I can recommend going to a museum or portrait gallery if you want to be reminded that you've got almost no idea what was going on in almost all of the world for almost all of history.

I have seen every episode of Taskmaster and here are my top five series:
5. Series 19. Watching Matthew Baynton be good at everything, all the while embarrassing himself in the process is pure gold, as is Fatiha El-Ghorri just not giving a shit, coupled with Jason Mantzoukas being purse chaos. ❤️❤️❤️

To me, a fart is a sign of love, a sign of vulnerability, and it’s a way of marking your favorite things with your own scent, like a dog, in many ways. Fart freely, my friends!

Part of the reason why I focus on reading and writing now is because when I was in high school, I often felt stupid in English class. I didn’t really know what was going through on, symbolism and terms went in and out of my brain, and I just didn’t get it. I didn’t know how to appreciate good

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Being demisexual is a nightmare all of the time, because, the way in which my brain works (I’m neurodivergent af), there has to be “emotional capital” in a relationship, otherwise I feel nothing. There HAS to be give and receive. If I’m supporting everything you do, and you don’t reciprocate…

I’m wide awake, it’s morning, let the cold return to me, let my bones crack. Let the sun shine just a little to remind me that winter is merely a coat to be shed sooner rather than later, and when you are gone, I will miss you until you return.
