one really difficult 'people are different from each other' for me has been coming to understand that sometimes when people tell you a book reminded them of fanfiction they mean that as a positive

"I told him that he addressed my interest or what he supposed to be my interest quite as unsuccessfully as he addressed my inclination, and he would now understand that I requested him, if he pleased, to go away immediately."

also my parents were less homophobic than I would say almost any of the other adults I knew. In itself that's maybe just a different species of answering my own question though; lol, lmao

"they were homophobic though" yeah obviously but I didn't know I was gay at the time so I think that doesn't count(?)

rhetorical question but does anybody know how I wound up with 'type of psychological problems that you get from your parents being mean to you' despite my parents literally not even being mean

YOU SHOULD STUDY AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE

If they don't know what to make of you, tell 'em.

The Secret Agent has the Mad Men thing of the backdrop sometimes being distractingly awesome and you find yourself losing track of the political intrigue and being like "fuck that's a nice looking shelf of lps, I wish I could lounge around in that chair, in that shirt, in Brazil in 1977"

it's actually not that hard to write a first draft. all you have to do is write it

something kind of funny about trying to decide if I'm nonbinary or not when I'm trans already. Like dude who cares I'm literally trans

an interesting thing about me is that for some reason I'm fucking obsessed with pretending that I don't like to read. Even though I like to read so much

Radio lab: between 1890 and 1980, before computers, what were doctors in hospitals writing on their clipboards? They were drawing pictures of their imaginary pony. And for almost 100 years 92% of doctors named their pony “Apricot”. The reason why? It’s kind of a long story,

love these, here's one I haven't posted before: when I was telling people my new name one friend asked if it was after Thomas Mendip in The Lady's Not for Burning, and even though it isn't the question made me feel really understood

Yes definitely if you feel off or down check your energy and hydration levels, but consider also the healing power of "loud music you know all the words to"

much ado is literally good actually

even when it's done well (I've seen it done well!) there's just not that much there there

on the other hand the thing that's even more fun is to say which ones you think suck and in that spirit: I simply don't care for Midsummer

The thing about the R2 pick is that the histories are weirdly the most competitive field for me (possibly because I've only come to love them as an adult) but. When it comes down to it. I am gay

Every once in awhile I think about this Nancy comic and it makes me laugh every single time. Absolute perfection.
