love saying "question mark?" out loud when I'm talking about something i'm unsure of

[yourlocalnymph]

"you don't owe anyone anything" You are a tar pit. Speak for yourself. I personally owe the cafe employees my dishes put away and my friends a listening ear and small scared insects a cup and a gentle trip outside. Hyperindividualism is a rancid infection borne of capitalism and willfully misinterpreted therapyspeak and I will defy it by continuing to be kind regardless of whether or not it benefits me personally

sheepish is a really funny word. fuck im so nervous (turns into this)

When will people realize that aroace people may not crave sexual and romantic relationships, but they can and probably will be lonely and want to find comfort in having friends and hugging/cuddling them.

I saw a post saying that they had a friend that "claims to be ace, but wants to cuddle with me when we watch movies" and that they "think they might have a crush on me" LOCK IN!!!! DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ROMANTIC/SEXUAL/PLATONIC AFFECTION!!

As my creativity kick-started again, I finally did the first round of new dividers based on a request (that I lost thanks to Tumblr).

They are pretty time consuming but other ones will be coming sooner or later. Anyway, just as previous ones, they are free to use by anyone who likes them!

It doesn't really seem to matter, how good my life is, how happy I am or how loving the people around me are.

That nostalgy, the loneliness, that heavy feelings haunts me, its like a Nosferatu, like I made a pact with her, like it's tied to my soul. It's not depression, its the weight of not being understood. Never, not at the same level I feel the world. Condemned to wander alone.

it's literally too hot to function

okay so real talk — is it just me or is the sun beefing with us this summer?? like, i went outside and instantly turned into a sweat puddle. fans are useless, a/c is EXPENSIVE, and honestly i’d rather chill in a walk-in freezer than deal with this heat.

but here's the thing: this isn’t just "ugh summer is gross" — this is climate change, and spoiler alert: we're kinda all part of it.

see, the planet’s heating up because of greenhouse gases (like carbon dioxide and methane) we’ve been pumping into the atmosphere for decades. and yeah, cars and factories are big players, but here’s the kicker: it’s the whole economy that’s behind it.

our economy runs on this idea that we always need more — more products, more money, more growth. and that means companies are constantly burning fossil fuels, chopping down forests, and mass-producing stuff that ends up in landfills. fast fashion? runs on sweatshops and oil. those 2-day shipping sprees? burn tons of fuel. even our food system — full of processed snacks and factory-farmed meat — is a massive contributor to emissions.

we’re so used to this “buy more, toss more” lifestyle that we don’t even think about it. but the stuff we see as normal — weekly hauls, upgrading our phones every year, cheap $5 shirts — all of that feeds into a system that’s literally cooking the planet.

and the wild part? the people paying the price aren’t the CEOs in corner offices — it’s everyday folks, especially in lower-income areas and countries that are already dealing with floods, droughts, wildfires, and power outages. all because rich corporations won’t stop chasing profits.

but here's the hopeful part: we’re not powerless.

you can’t fix the whole system on your own (and you shouldn’t have to), but small changes still matter:

thrift your clothes instead of buying fast fashion

support local or sustainable businesses when you can

eat less meat (even one veggie meal a week helps)

vote for leaders who actually get climate policy

call out greenwashing when you see it

talk about it — awareness spreads change

basically: the more we question the "normal" stuff that’s actually harming the planet, the more pressure we can put on the people who can change the system.

so yeah, it’s hot. but it’s not just the weather — it’s the economy running wild. and we deserve better.

you cannot be anti-immigrant and a Zeus worshipper.

being an anti-immigrant hellenic polytheist is directly against the Gods, and you are not welcome to my blog.
