I JUST NEED TO SHARE MY 'I LOVE THE SMITHS' MOMENT WITH EVERYONE.

i was out in another town and i was wearing my the smiths band tee, while walking i saw someone else with a the smiths band shirt AND WE MADE EYE CONTACT AND WE PASSED BY, AND WHEN I LOOKED BACK THEY WERE LOOKING BACK AT ME TOO.

another one...

wow two weeks of nothing and now two in a row, must be my lucky day.

episode 7 thoughts :)

I absolutely LOVED Paul's episode. and tommys, I think they balanced it well, I think this is the secret combo to a near perfect lone star episode.

won't lie, Paul and Owen friendship makes Owen more likable, I don't mind Owen personally. but I don't like the way they've written him recently, just in regards to being distant and having odd side plots. so I think this was a good episode to like: reintroduce him to the firefam.

loved tommy, she's amazing and I wish the best for her. I loved that they addressed that it was weird she hooked up with her brother in law so that was hilarious. and the ending was sweet I love her with Trevor she smiles so much.

Paul.

amazing.

Brian Michael Smith, is an icon.

I can not explain to you how much this storyline spoke to me. just every single thing, the way he acts how his face falls, he closes up, doesnt show it, but he's uncomfortable. I pray to the universe they consulted a transperson on this storyline maybe even Brian himself.

when I tell you that was the first time, I have ever, ever, seen such a niche trans issue/insecurity portrayed on screen I am telling the truth. I've seen shameless, maybe there's a few more that have slipped through the cracks but specifically through the lens of a transman. I am in awe of Brian's performance. I was shook, I genuinely was so fucking happy, that they showed this at all. seeing as they've not really touched on it since s1. and that's a good thing too, they don't make it his defining charactistic, but also I didn't know how much that would've meant to me until I got it, so thank you lone star. I finally see myself on screen and that's fucking magical.

Messaging people for the first time is so hard. What am I supposed to say? Like, "You seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters?" What! Whatever. I will just follow you back and stare at your blog with my big beautiful brown eyes.

at the funeral my 85 year old great-aunt asked to see a photo of my cat, and so I said “sure” and showed her this, and she just said “oh”, visibly struggled to follow that up with anything, and then walked away.

I think so many people are so deeply alienated from themselves that they have no clue how to exercise their free will and autonomy. For some, this alienation runs so deep that they are afraid of their own autonomy and humanity. It is completely understandable why one would have those feelings, but it can be worrisome.

I want to help others who feel this way, so here are small things I have done to exercise my free will:

Add "guilty pleasure" songs to playlists and actually listen to them (I have a ton of late 1990s-early 2000s music I listen to now proudly that I never listened to in the past out of shame)

Getting the décor item, bath set, bed spread, ect. in the patterns you like, even if it's "childish" (I got a dinosaur-themed wastebasket from the kids' décor section and I adore it)

Taking a new route to get to a place you go to often

Eat dessert first

Celebrate well, and often

Collect things that are "odd" or don't seem like an "acceptable" thing to collect (somebody on my "for you" page collects dandelion crayola crayons and it was so cool!!!!!!)

Incorporate one new piece in an outfit you wear frequently (e.g., a new chain, a necklace, ribbons, bracelets, ect.). Challenge yourself to add onto the outfits if you feel up for it.

Sing along to songs without worrying that you sound "good" or your intonation is completely accurate

Read a book from a genre you weren't allowed to read as a kid (comics, thrillers, mysteries, anything!)

Walk without having a specific destination or goal

Pick up a new craft without expecting yourself to master it or to ever be "good" enough. Get your hands messy.

I don't want to shame anybody for not feeling as though they have free will or that they are exempt from exercising it. However, I wanted to give ideas so that you might read this list and find your own ways to express your intrinsic autonomy and will. You deserve to be a person, to feel alive, not just living. That is what our lives are for.
