#so that I could graduate college

Shen Yuan getting transported into pidw isn't "the system punishing him for being a lazy internet hater," but instead representative of "step 1 of the creative process: getting so mad at something you decide to go write your own fucking book" in this essay I will

the other day i walked around the golden lake w my love and the sun was setting hot and orange and we watched a brown duck preening through the weeds, ducking her head under the dark water. the cool lake swallowed up my tired feet to the ankles and we counted the dog walkers with their curly panting doodles and their handsome german shepherds and their whip smart little terriers and we admired the careful construction of a sand castle whose moat held determinedly against the lapping of the waves. we could feel in our chests the persistent thunderous thumping of celebratory music at the finish line of the lakeside 5k, welcoming each gasping runner across its bounds. and i felt like crying. i felt like curling into myself and crying. we walked through the swamp of the bird sanctuary afterwards and listened to the woods sing and croak and groan and then we went and got ube and yuzu gelato and devoured it suntired and sweating on the couch in our living room. and i was so overcome w a deep and true unshakeable happiness and a sort of confused grief that i wanted to sob and sob and sob.

do u think it’s weird for an 18 and 21 yr old to date?

Yeah tbh. These are such big years for us. Me rn at 21 is so different from me at 18. You could argue that there’s a 21 year old out there who’s just as sheltered as an 18 year old—and to that I say probably, because there are exceptions to every case. But most 21 year olds have had more experience w relationships than 18 year olds. I would side eye any 21 year old who’d see it as appealing to date someone who’s 18. Just not appropriate to me

[raddestrose]

I’ve been cursed by a dark force (college) and now I can no longer experience joy (reading books that tear my heart out and make me sad)

[mochasucculent]

Kinda weird but this is still like one of my fave things I've ever drawn lol, it's just a background study from Shawn James' cover of Arkansas by Damien Jurado (there was a character here too once iykyk lol) but I was Going Through It at the time and painting this was soooo cathartic

in this weeks episode of "i want to cut up elias' brain and put it under a microscope" ...

ive graduated past the need to rationalize the age gap and i think trying to debate it is obstructive to actual discussion of the story. truthfully. listen to me. im telling you that i cannot be fucked to care about it anymore. but i would LOVE to understand his mental gymnastics

he doesnt like children. actively dislikes them, even. he views people around chises age as children. i think if he ever displayed particular interest in one of her peers (which would never happen, but walk with me), we would all have to put him under the jail. but somehow chise doesnt count, to him. its soooo. like, WHAT is his logic here??

im not explaining this well, maybe this belongs in the drafts. but do you get what i mean man??? this is perhaps another instance where the simple answer is "hes stupid"

more importantly, regarding the reason why so many adults protest the nature of his relationship to chise:

vent incoming:

got my grades back for my courses last semester and most of it was to be expected, mostly A's, maybe an A-, etc. but i honestly can't get over the fact that my independent study (the buddy cole documentary) was for some reason given a B. like sure getting a B isn't bad per se, I usually get at least one B every semester and i honestly don't really care about what my exact gpa is as long as i can graduate, but come on. this school put me through months of psychological torment over this project and didn't even have the nerve to give me a B+??? i'm still coping with the self-doubt they forced on me and this bullshit is not helping!!

[macroglossus]
