why does longing for external validation always have to feel so stupid and childish?
like ‘sorry i’m super fucking touch starved and lonely but can you at least tell me you think i’m pretty so i don’t cry?’ type shit… it makes sense in my head but on paper is bullshit.

i want to date someone who knows what they want. i don’t want to be left overthinking and second guessing every step of the way.
if the answer isn’t clear what their intentions are or how much of priority you are, that’s an answer in itself.

hi, a lot of you need a perspective reset
the average human lifespan globally is 70+ years
taking the threshold of adulthood as 18, you are likely to spend at least 52 years as a fully grown adult
at the age of 30 you have lived less than one quarter of your adult life (12/52 years)
'middle age' is typically considered to be between 45-65
it is extremely common to switch careers, start new relationships, emigrate, go to college for the first or second time, or make other life-changing decisions in middle age
it's wild that I even have to spell it out, but older adults (60+) still have social lives and hobbies and interests.
you can still date when you get old. you can still fuck. you can still learn new skills, be fashionable, be competitive. you can still gossip, you can still travel, you can still read. you can still transition. you can still come out.
young doesn't mean peaked. you're inexperienced in your 20s! you're still learning and practicing! you're developing social skills and muscle memory that will last decades!
there are a million things to do in the world, and they don't vanish overnight because an imaginary number gets too big

I love talking with neurotypical people about my executive dysfunction because I'm like "yeah there's this invisible wall in my head that I'm incapable of getting past no matter what I do and it stops me from doing things" and they're like what the actual fuck
Meanwhile other neurodivergents are like

maturing is coming full circle and re-listening to the bands you were super into in high school (if you ever stopped)
#nothing hits quite as hard as listening to the neighborhood all over again but as a touch starved adult#oof

i wanna be like…
the coolest, strangest, scariest, “what the fuck is that thing” kind of person someone’s kid sees and is affirmed in their ideas that they can get *so* much weirder…
like exponentially weirder. the weirdest.
#i’ve got to get more weird#being weird is cool#soft butch#cryptidcore#rural gothic aesthetic#cryptid#just really gay#exactly what i said thank you

cats being capable of understanding accidents and even giving you a little head bonk to let you know you're still cool makes it infinitely funnier that they don't understand when you're trying to help them
cats when you step on their tail: i'll admit that was rather ouchie, but given the lifetime of goodwill and trust between us, one must conclude this booboo is but a fluke.
cats when you try to get their claws unstuck from the couch covering: this nefarious bitch has never had a single honorable intention in their dishonest and shameful life, this must be one of their sinister plots or perhaps even an attempt on my life,
