Up until I was like 7-8, I thought all/most authors were women imagine my surprise when I found out C.S. Lewis is a man😭

I love when multiple people notice one thing about me that I never really think about

My mom and I were in the store a couple years ago and I was showing her a shirt and she asked “did you pick it because of the stripes, you like stripes don’t you?” Because apparently I had picked up a shirt in the previous store that also had stripes.

Then last year when I was wearing that same shirt, my art appreciation professor commented on it while explaining something “I would say you like stripes, because every time I see you, you’re wearing a striped shirt. Even your shoes have stripes.”

A friend said the same thing “I didn’t really notice but you do wear a lot of stripes”

Yes half of my shirts are in fact stripes (I also recently bought a striped tank💀💀) but I hadn’t even realized I like stripes and gravitate towards them until people pointed it out

My favorite type of Ao3 fic title is

Decided to put on “I bet on losing dogs” while the sun is still setting the perfectly melancholy mood and now I’m using all the emotional repression skills I’ve gained throughout my life, so I don’t start bawling

I’m on a road trip and the sun is rising perfectly over all the fields and I’m listening to Radiohead

Eight year old me would have spun out so hard I wouldn’t been able to stop daydreaming

“Thanks Kendall Jenner for putting me on to a basic wife beater that black people have been wearing in the exact same way since the beginning of time”

I’m working a 21st century program this summer and this one four year old is testing how worn my last nerve is

I’ve been passively building my Duke Thomas playlist and it’s made me realize people don’t lean into the New Jersey aspect of the batfamily enough

The most human thing a character can do is contradict themselves.

The cynic who still carries a childhood stuffed animal.

The liar who craves honesty.

The overthinker who makes reckless decisions.

The heartbreaker who believes in soulmates.

The pacifist who holds lifelong grudges.

The tough guy who cries during old movies.

The thrill-seeker who's terrified of commitment.

The grump who’s unfailingly polite to waitstaff.

People aren’t consistent. Your characters shouldn’t be either.

De-aged batfam because its finally summer!

Can’t sleep because the pain in my vertebrae is so agonizing that I can’t lay in any position without my spine feeling like it’s being put on a hydraulic press… it’s 4am

And in the grand scheme of things, he didn’t actually cry that much😭😭Like I’m only on the 5th season but he hasn’t been erupting into tears at every waking moment

God forbid a boy’s a little emotional while accomplishing his dreams and watching people die in front of him😭😭

one criticism i didn't get about mha is that midoriya cries too much like that boy got a lot to cry about omg 😭😭😭😭

I hate when I cringe at things I used to love at 13😭😭

Because I was so ENTHRALLED and I don’t wanna poop on my own party but GOOD GOD😭😭😭

It’s just a sign of maturity truly like I would fawn over the simplest things 😭😭

There’s a man in my church who was a sharecropper when he was younger, lived through the civil rights movement, the first black president, and now he’s living through the presidency of a man who wants to send America back

What a life

I always refused to read hurt no comfort

Then my roommate improperly tagged a TV show recommendation as hurt/comfort

(It was arcane)

I hate to say it but if I have children one day I may name them the way Harry did 😭😭😭
