You should mourn him… the man I used to be. Cause he’s never coming back

-Merlin at some point after the others come back

[skeletonfather]

This is just me screaming out into the Tumblr void but it really infuriates me seeing people talk about online that “there won’t be elections in 2026/2028” so I should not get my hopes up for any sort of future where America stops/leaves this fascist administration.

Am I not allowed to hold onto hope? This defeatist attitude is what the current administration WANTS, they want people to give up, to roll over and take it until something MAYBE changes. Why give into what they want me to feel? The current administration HATES how their every move has been watched, mostly due social media, even when they get something done, they’re still complaining about those who opposed it, who did not stop talking about, those who want to inform the people around them (and beyond) of the cruel, hateful, dehumanizing actions the current administration is committing.

An example is senator Mike Lee from Utah being forced to take the sale of public lands out of the Big Beautiful Bill, because ENOUGH people would not shut up about it, and it was enough for even his hateful self to notice and make a change, albeit begrudgingly.

(I’m not giving him any props for this, he’s mad that all eyes were on him and the sale of public lands. I am sure he, or someone else, will try to do this again and try to do it in a sneakier way.)

I want to ask those who push this defeatist rhetoric/idea online:

Have you done anything before conceding? Did you vote? Have you gone to any protests? Have you talked to the people around you, to see how they’re doing, how they’re dealing with everything around them?

If you said no to any of these (especially if you said no to all), you’re part of the problem, part of the current administration’s agenda, falling in line with their goal, watching the days go by and hoping for something BETTER to magically appear.

Something BETTER won’t magically appear, it has to be MADE, DEVELOPED. Voting won’t solve everything in America, a combination of coming together as a community, building up support, and saying FUCK NO to everything happening is needed. You cannot sit idly by and EXPECT things to get better. You must participate, you must invest in your’s and others’ futures to MAKE A CHANGE.

Look at Zohran Mamdani, do you think he won the NYC mayoral democratic primary because he was just sitting around? NO! He was out of the streets, meeting with the people of NYC. His supporters helped spread his message, his ideas, canvassing neighborhoods day after day. And they will continue to do this, as the NYC mayoral election is this November. Zohran Mamdani defied the odds once, will he do it again? Hopefully, and that’s something I can hold onto during these times.

I will also recognize that I should not be listening to the doomers online. What I see online isn’t always representative of reality, but feel like this defeatist attitude is something that needs addressed if any progress is to be made.

This was a great line, so I wrote it down at school today, transferring it from the book into my notes app. Khione really didn't count on fire melting her snow.

Leo grinned. "See, lady, that's what happens to snow in Texas. It--Freaking--melts."

bittersweet is the remedy of heartbreak

forgetting the only cure

but how to erase something so beautiful - wondrous

what represents all of us humanity

how could one forget such a thing

a miracle to not be essential for survival

proof we're not just flesh and bones who eat and consume

but i crave to love and to be

to hold and admire

and be held and admired

it's a desire as no other

can't i call this intensity of desire essential

i feel as if i'll die if i don't

maybe not forever - but i beg once in this lifetime

achievements i am good at, people say

the medals hanging are proof of it

but feelings not so much

and love is a feeling after all

not an achievement of gold, or something you acquire

decisions i am good at, i'd say

is love a decision?

please explain to me

because i do not know what i long for

just that it is irreplaceable and delicate and strong

and i know nothing of it at all

but i'd bite if you tried to explain

because no one understands like i do

but if i think no one understands like i do

then how could somebody ever love me like i want them to

this is the tragedy of heartbreak before love at all

Dora's letter but it's Harry writing to Kim

Kim, I wanted to write you a letter, so you can read it first thing in the morning when you come to work. Maybe it will make you happy.

You know how we go over your notes at the station every evening? You smoke your daily cigarette, I try to keep my promise and not smoke at all. We look at Jamrock, the sad remnants of the capital of the world that Revachol once was. I know you love it despite everything, and that makes me love it too. The lights of the city warm the cold spring air around us. We talk about the current case, then we usually move on to precinct gossip, aerostatics, sometimes even politics. Lately we've been talking a lot.

Every evening when you finally put out your cigarette and we walk out of the station and part our ways, I find a little piece of sadness in me. I carry it in my chest on my way home. Every step I take, it grows, and by the time I reach my apartment, it has filled me completely. I open the door, I see the kitchen and the living room where the memories of another life still haunt me. I try not to shudder. I go inside and look back at the door closing behind me, locked in the empty apartment shell.

I know it will be like this until the next morning, when I leave for work -- and walk back to you. Every step I take will get lighter. It almost makes me run, sometimes I do. I can’t believe I met you. I can’t believe there’s a reason I want to wake up in the morning, go to work. I can’t believe I’m hopeful, despite everything that has happened.

You have a vast, vast soul, Kim, and I will always, always come back to it. Kisses, kisses, kisses.

Me and my brother speak in a language without words, we speak in gestures and offers.

It is one we are both fluent in, one we both know well like the back of our hands.

Words don’t mean much for us.

Saying good morning and good night to each is something we both forget to say. 

Were as buying something from the store without the other mentioning about wanting something speaks volumes.

It means, I thought of you and it’s been a while since you asked me of something, so here, my memento to you.

But sometimes being fluent in one language is hard.

Having fights and bickering and arguing and teasing is one I’m unsure in.

We both have done tremendous amount of hurt to each other, but how am I supposed to carry on without you?

Who will punch me in the shoulder?

Who will say to me to do my chores?

Who will I go to school with?

Who will I complain to my parents?

Who will be my brother that I don’t already know?

It is like buying a piece of new furniture.

Sure the chair was old and I tripped over it a multitude of times but It didn’t mean that I didn’t grow fond of all its squeaking and rough patches.

The point is, who can ever be like you?

You are a one of a kind sibling and I don’t think I hate you as much as I make myself believe.

I wish I had a babygirlicious man next to me to keep me company right now 😼😉

[smallvolcanos]

is this real? are you here with me?

[poeaxtry]

I wrote & write a lot of micro poetry

I know what I want to say and I say it

Sue me.. actually please don’t !

The whole starving artist thing might not just be a stereotype. 🤣🤣🤣💥🫶🏻

you ever NOTP a ship so hard you mute every single variation of it that you can think of—in multiple languages on multiple platforms—only for Nicki Minaj to block evade by showing up to rap about it in your dream?

a friend came to visit me in liguria and i promptly lost all interest in documenting my stay on tumblr but i'll post some photos again

but my fav quote of the week was when she talked to the 3 resident dogs saying "i think *you* are demented, *you* are the most annoying thing thats ever happened and *you* are secretly the worst of them all", felt very validated because they are soso annoying

[neil-gaiman]

is it okay if I make my senior quote "Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." bc I am 87% sure you said (wrote?) that in probably Coraline. It's saved in my notes app so idk

also side note you're my favorite author of all time thank you for existing

Good with me. I attribute the quote to Chesterton in Coraline but the wording is mine.

thinking about boyfriend jo...

GENRE: fluff WORD COUNT: 1.1k WARNINGS: jo soft hours are lethal somebody hold me pls SNAIL TRAIL: hi i wrote this a few days ago at like 9am when i should have been asleep so it's pure fluffy brainrot. thank you @dazzlingjaeyun for working so hard to push jo further up my bias list and i'm pretty sure she hypnotized me to start writing for &team so this is all her fault 💛

₊✩ˎˊ˗ bf!jo who loves holding your hand, no matter if it's in public or private. feeling the way your fingers interlock with his brings him a huge wave of comfort, grounding him in place. he'll mindlessly play with your fingers, especially if you're waiting in line for something. he loves the feeling of spacing out while also being grounded by your touch

₊✩ˎˊ˗ bf!jo who likes to walk behind you so he can just watch you skip around in front of him. loves watching you get distracted by different things and loves it even more when you excitedly turn around to him with a big smile on your face, pointing to something that caught your attention that you want him to see

₊✩ˎˊ˗ bf!jo who's touch is always so gentle and savoring. the way his fingers ghost over your skin, especially when they're absentmindedly moving up your arms or legs. or when he's playing with your hair. his movements are slow and intentional, just loving the way your skin feels against his

₊✩ˎˊ˗ bf!jo who can't help but smile every time he sees something that reminds him of you. his camera roll is filled with photos of things to send you: items in your favorite color, things he finds pretty, songs he wants to share with you, pictures of the sunset etc. he's always buying you little trinkets and leaving them on the dinner table for you to see when you get home

₊✩ˎˊ˗ bf!jo who finds a new thing he loves about you everyday. each thing being the topic of his obsession from morning until dawn. you yawned cutely? he's not shutting up about it. in fact, he's trying to make you yawn even more by saying the word over and over again, making sure you're nice and cozy just hoping you'll do it again or even fall asleep against his chest. or if he sees you do something kind for a stranger, he won't stop bringing it up. "you're so sweet, why are you so sweet?"

₊✩ˎˊ˗ bf!jo who will always carry anything you have in your arms whether it be a bag, books, drink etc. he's not even asking. just either taking it from you or holding his hand out, eyebrows quirking up if you try to refuse. he'll even thank YOU once you give it to him, leaving a soft kiss on your temple as he does so

₊✩ˎˊ˗ bf!jo who always shares his food with you, subtly adding more to your plate when you're not looking or even holding bites in front of your mouth. he'd even open his own mouth wide, like someone would do in front of a baby to get them to mimic the action, and smile fondly once you've taken the bite

₊✩ˎˊ˗ bf!jo who leaves sticky notes for you to find in random places. some with small drawings, others with quotes he likes or just words of encouragement. he loves when you find them when he's around because he gets to hear you giggle and the sound of your feet running towards him to give him a hug and a kiss

₊✩ˎˊ˗ bf!jo who loves when you pepper his face with kisses until he's laughing so hard he can't breathe. sometimes he even needs to physically hold you back at arms length just so he can catch his breath. but once he does, he's leaning forward to kiss the tip of your nose or on the side of your cheek, slowly working his way up into his own retaliation smooch frenzy

₊✩ˎˊ˗ bf!jo who keeps a list of everything you love in his notes app. from your favorite snacks, favorite songs, favorite stores etc. even though he has the information memorized like the back of his hand, he likes seeing the list compiled physically in front of him and loves adding to it. it shows him how he's still learning new things about you everyday. and one day he feels like his heart is going to burst when he sees his name at the end of the list, wondering just when you managed to sneak that in

₊✩ˎˊ˗ bf!jo who loses his breath when he sees you in the sunlight. he takes a few moments to admire you from afar before you see him, watching the way the sunrays make your hair shine. his stomach feels full of butterflies that only worsen when you finally see him, calling out his name excitedly. when his hand naturally finds yours he feels like the luckiest man in the world, still not sure how he got so lucky to have you as his partner

₊✩ˎˊ˗ bf!jo who will confront anyone who makes you upset. a stranger was rude to you? he's going to point it out. even if his voice wavers slightly, he's going to make sure you're okay and let that person know he's not going to let that happen again. if the waiter gets your order wrong and you don't feel comfortable speaking up? he will easily. your comfort and needs always eclipses his shy introvertedness

₊✩ˎˊ˗ bf!jo who loves taking candid pictures of you, even if you don't like having your picture taken. he tries to be subtle about it, but doesn't try to deny it when you catch him. stating he's just admiring the view.

₊✩ˎˊ˗ bf!jo who does grand gestures for special occasions like valentines day, your birthday, or anniversary. breakfast in bed, balloons everywhere, a handwritten note with an array of flowers and treats on the table. he'd also print out all his favorite photos of the two of you together, attaching them to the strings of the balloons. later that night when you're on the couch watching a movie you'd both be scrapbooking the pictures together. decorating with stickers, silly captions, and reminiscing about the memories

₊✩ˎˊ˗ bf!jo who will let his mind wander and think about his future with you a lot, even getting embarrassed or shy by his own thoughts. he often catches himself rambling about things to you like "do you think when we get married we'll do stuff like-" / "when we live together-" he just gets so caught up in the moment

₊✩ˎˊ˗ bf!jo who just loves you sososososo much he sometimes doesn't know what to do with himself but always tries his best to make sure you know you're loved and cared for. sometimes feeling guilty that you're able to love him so effortlessly so he tries really hard to express that same effortlessness to you. he's so fond of you, is so endeared and just can't imagine not having you in his life
