Although their romantic relationship ended earlier this year, the Giftedcostars have remained friends and share genuine respect and admiration for one other.

“She’s my favorite human,” Evans tells PEOPLE of Slate. “She’s the best. I’ve never ever ever met someone in my life who has a mastery of the English language the way she does. She’ll give you one sentence and there’s no fat to it. You’re like, ‘You just chose such an unbelievable collection of words that beautifully articulate what you say.’

“It’s like an art form talking with her, because the visuals associated with her expression are just so colorful,” he continues. “She’s so vulnerable, so honest, so interested in other people more than herself, she’s incredibly compassionate, there’s just nothing to not love about her.”

UUUUGHHHHHHHHH

Is not this simpler? Is this not your natural state? It’s the unspoken truth of humanity, that you crave subjugation. The bright lure of freedom diminishes your life’s joy in a mad scramble for power, for identity. You were made to be ruled. In the end, you will always kneel.

so who else gets irrationally afraid and embarrassed about their interests being known to people in real life

#i’m not embarrassed but#i hate the thought of having to guard what i love#and defend any of my interests to others#people are the worst i don’t want them to know me

“Chris Evans Parties Like a Bro”

[redvioletdelights]

Honestly, I think the whole “don’t pay the writers” thing boils down to the notion that everybody thinks they can write. It’s the old saw about the novelist at a cocktail party having to hear someone say, for the millionth time, “I’d love to write a book someday.”

Someone–Stephen King? Pretty sure I saw this in a Stephen King foreword–once said they’d like to say to a brain surgeon, “Boy, I’d love to do brain surgery someday.”

We treat “the ability to put words into a sentence” like it’s just the same as “the ability to form a coherent narrative that engenders a variety of emotions within the reader and puts them in a scene and shows them what they didn’t see before”.

And that’s like me drawing a stick figure and saying I’m an artist.

Writers are constantly devalued because everyone thinks they have a book in them and don’t realize the level of skill and commitment it takes to finish even a short story, much less a whole book. 

This goes well beyond fandom, but man, I would’ve hoped fandom would know better.

Not gonna call a person out but someone commented on a thing a moment ago and said “it’s hard to be kind these days.” This is for you, anonymously, so you may still be anonymous if you’d like.

I’m torn between agreeing and not. I’m torn between life is hard and everything is hard and it sucks, and between no, it’s really not.

So let’s just look at it this way, kindness is a choice. It is a daily, hourly, choice. It is your decision to speak up or stay quiet. It is your decision to be vocal with your praise and silent with your criticism. It is your decision to be vocal with your justice and silent with your hate.

It’s a decision you make every moment of your life. Little things are kind. Holding doors, smiling. Taking your anger to someone else who will listen instead of dumping it back on the person who gave it to you. Smiling and nodding as someone rambles on with an idea you don’t even agree with, because it’s harmless fantasy. Keeping private chats private, giving people the benefit of the doubt, showing empathy. Everyone has a complex life as colorful as yours and 90% of the time they are not out to inconvenience you, but trying their best to take care of themselves.

Our world is full of hive minds and influences, and so many people are telling us today sucks and the world is hard. You can still allow yourself to be happy and kind despite that.

Sometimes, I don’t believe I am a kind person. Often I don’t believe there are any kind people. Only kind decisions.
