Damn. Klaus really can’t catch a break can he?
He gets kidnapped
He watches the love of his life die in his arms
He commits suicide
Comes back to life (as if that’s what the guy wanted.)
He’s gotta help save the world
He starts a cult
He’s gotta try to save Dave but Dave thinks he’s weird
Then he’s got to help stop the world from ending (again)
He kills himself AGAIN only to come back to life
He gets thrown in a different dimension with his family
Ben is an asshole
He dies again (by his so called nephew)
comes back to life and scares the living shit out of Diego.
Gets hit by 37 busses
His dad leaves him for death
he ends up killing himself bc he had too
Then he is FORCED to come back to life my Luther
Has to help save the world AGAIN
Poor guy.

Never knew what love really felt like until i moved in with my best friends and realized that i didn't like staying in my room all day, and id much rather take naps on the couch where one or both of them are in the same room, doing their own thing peacefully. They make fun of me for all my dad naps, but it's so peaceful and comforting to fall asleep around the people you love and know that they'll look out for you and/or wake you up if something happens. I spent all day Saturday asleep, literally woke up late, got breakfast, sat down on the couch, and konked out for an hour. Woke up, vacuumed, went back to sleep. Woke up to make some chips, went back to sleep. When they leave town without me i can't take my couch naps cause it's not as comfy without them there. Humans are made for communities. Humans are made for best friends. Humans are made for napping with someone nearby who loves you.

Rejection sensitive dysphoria is wild. Someone will be like "hey just so you know the thing you did was a little bit loud/uncomfortable/insensitive but it's ok I know you didn't mean it" and my brain will instantly translate "you should be shot"
