So I just saw a post by a random personal blog that said ādonāt follow me if we never even had a conversation beforeā and?????? Not to be rude but literally what the fuck??????????
Iāve had people (non-pornbots) try to strike conversation out of nowhere in my DMs recently, and now Iām wondering if they were doing that because they wanted to follow me and thought they needed to interact first. I feel compelled to say, just in case, that itās totally okay to follow this blog (or my side blog, for that matter) even if weāve never talked before.
Also, Iām legit confused. Is this how follow culture works right now? It was worded like itās common sense but is that really a thing?
The Tortured Poets Department. An anthology of new works that reflect events, opinions and sentiments from a fleeting and fatalistic moment in time - one that was both sensational and sorrowful in equal measure. This period of the authorās life is now over, the chapter closed and boarded up. There is nothing to avenge, no scores to settle once wounds have healed. And upon further reflection, a good number of them turned out to be self-inflicted. This writer is of the firm belief that our tears become holy in the form of ink on a page. Once we have spoken our saddest story, we can be free of it.
And then all thatās left behind is the tortured poetry.
online communities are so strange because people slip away so easily. you can be on here for years, folding people you've never met into the fabric of your daily life, and then they disappear, leaving only ghost posts scattered across tumblr behind. or their blog stays dormant, for weeks, months, years, until you're only still following them because you remember that they love sunflowers or they were kind to you when they didn't have to be or the last thing they posted was sad and raw and you still worry about them sometimes.
and sometimes they come back when you least expect it, years later, even, and there's this sudden rush of relief like there you are, there you are, even though you barely knew each other.
there's a strange kind of love to it. i don't know you and i want to hold your hand across miles and time zones and oceans. i can still see the imprint of you in this community you left. you don't anyone will notice or care when you're gone, but we notice and we care and we wish you well.
i hope you're all okay out there. i hope the sun is shining on your face and you are breathing deeply. i miss you.
The first single from The Tortured Poets Department isā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦. Fortnight featuring @postmalone š¤ Iāve been such a huge fan of Post because of the writer he is, his musical experimentation and those melodies he creates that just stick in your head forever. I got to witness that magic come to life firsthand when we worked together on Fortnight. Honestly canāt wait for you guys to hear this song at Midnight TONIGHT and see the video at 8pm ET TOMORROW.
The stripping of the armor seems so surreal, sad yet it needed to be done. They ARE NOT messing around and the fact Hunter had some amazing restraint in trying not to punch that imperial when asking why their uniforms werenāt regulation, just goes to show you this dad is pissed and heās ready to kill. Hunter got rid of his signature skull and I think thatās symbolic.

Look Iāve held my breath for this show before, especially recently when Wrecker decided to tempt fate and take so long to jump BUT never have I ever held my breath as long as I did for HUNTER to latch onto the SHIP, I swear I was going to pass out š this show knows how to mess with your emotions, man. BUT IT WASNT JUST THEM, it was Omega and reconstructing the WALL that also kept FALLING APART
