#it's the fucking num-num snack factory isn't it

[monstermoviedean]

maybe it's just main character syndrome that i'm bothered by. the assumption that you are not only the main character of your own life, but of others' lives too. the way social media encourages self-obsession. the reassurance that if you don't relate to something, it's not your fault, it's theirs. the suggestion that if something isn't about you, it's not worth the time or energy. the whispers that you are, in fact, more special than everyone else, better-looking, funnier, smarter, more deserving of attention. that everything is, in fact, about you.
