studying the fall of the western Roman empire, and I can’t help but imagine Roman legions getting absolutely demolished by a bunch of Goths all dolled up in their fishnets and black lipstick.
I’m not depressed, but I am still in awe of how much my friends get out and do things. like, they go out and meet people and go to concerts and volunteer and do things spontaneously. My little brain could never; I do things the same way every week, plan out my weekends a week in advance, do my homework before i go home from school. The biggest thing I change about my schedule is baking a cake spontaneously at 2200.
having depression makes your friends seem like the coolest most put together people on earth like wow... you got out of bed, had breakfast, went to work, AND spent some time on a hobby when you got home....? that's so impressive you're like superman or something. can i borrow your power.
Reblog to hug prev poster (they need a hug)
we need to have a way to post a pdf directly to tumblr. tumblr should have another post type called "pdf" so we can embed them easily. tumblr will never be the new pdf without this function.
i remember hearing about the college app essays as a kid and how much time people spend on them and so starting in 7th grade, I would practice writing proper essays, like 10-15 pages EACH. I did this like all the way through highschool because I figured that was what I would be expected to be able to write, and then I first looked over the commonapp questions and they’re like, a couple hundred words on the vaguest prompt that has ever prompted. like, i understand there are administrative reasons, but I was so godamned shocked because everyone had called them essays, which to me meant a complete piece of writing??, and ig i just ran with that assumption as a kid? I feel like that’s pretty reasonable, is it normal that people struggle so much to write a few pages? Is this an American thing?
Whats he regretting so much?

I see your posts and laugh, but don’t I understand, each one’s a little prayer, a cry for help to your better self. Our hope is proof of our best desires.
everyone on replies is terrified of this fact but i just think it's so sweet and heartwarming. she's holding our hand and leading us somewhere secret and we're both giggling like kids. i love her
genuinely wild to me when I go to someone's house and we watch TV or listen to music or something and there are ads. I haven't seen an ad in my home since 2005. what do you mean you haven't set up multiple layers of digital infrastructure to banish corporate messaging to oblivion before it manifests? listen, this is important. this is the 21st century version of carving sigils on the wall to deny entry to demons or wearing bells to ward off the Unseelie. come on give me your router admin password and I'll show you how to cast a protective spell of Get Thee Tae Fuck, Capital

/hj is the funniest earnest tonetag in the world even without the handjob joke because it's ostensibly meant to clarify tone for autistic people, but the tone it's clarifying is "unreadable level of ambiguous seriousness that requires social context beyond what text can convey /glhffgt"
alternatively, “a worm turning in his grave” could indicate the existential futility of a pursuit because worms live underground, and so they already spend their lives in the place where they will die. e.g “I hate my nine-to-five, I just feel like a worm turning in his grave.”
Remembered the phrase "[someone] is turning in his grave", as a way of saying that someone who's now dead would so deeply disapprove of something that a living person is doing that their corpse would stir in unease.
Then I remembered an expression, "even a worm will turn", as a way of saying that no matter how downtrodden or lowly someone seems, they can nonetheless turn against their abusers and oppressors once they've had enough of it.
Then cross-contamination happened and the phrase "a worm is turning in his grave" emerged to me. I have no idea what that means.
“even a worm is turning in his grave” you have done something so fundamentally offensive that even a worm would disapprove beyond the grave.

bitches will love magic systems and then dread studying stem because its hard. Like, your mind IS the magic! Physicists, biologists, and chemists are literal wizards. They can transmute substances and cure diseases and predict the future. Engineers have made structures that stand for millennia and rocks that think and enchanted clothes and wonders we can barely imagine. Mathematicians are eldritch creatures that can peer into the fabric of reality and will reveal what they see if only you learn their language.
So yes, stem is difficult and esoteric and maybe can’t be mastered, but its literal magic and its everywhere and if you can’t appreciate that, I don’t even know how you get through the day.
this is also a reminder to take care of your mind. Magic runs on your mind and sheer willpower. If you’re studying late and getting drowsy, go to sleep. Consider meditating if you’re stressed out. Exercise regularly. It’s definitely not easy, but the benefits are real.
