"life was so much better when i was eating sugar snap peas"

repeatin old patterns of behaviour but in new and improved ways ok

mis-sang the kenan and kel lyrics as, "this ain't a nancy boys or hardy drew mystery"

then one must suffer the worst tea-related fate of all: soggy mushy biscuit floating about the cup in the last fourth that may or may not go down the wrong way and choke you

having been british only under half my life, my understanding of the application of biscuits to a cup of tea is as follows: one must dunk and ravenously consume all biscuits one by one within the first fourth of the cup, and then proceed to inwardly grumble about the remaining tea that is now bland

what happened last night dermatillomaniacally can never happen again,

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

in my having a PARTNER era ??? in my potential first long-term relationship era ????? wrow 4 me,,

JAMES MERRILL CHRISTMAS TREE From loes torn hamin Had been fed, looked after, kept still, Meant, I knew— of course I knew - That it would be only a matter of weeks, That there was nothing more to do. Warmly they took me in, made much of me, The point from the start was to keep my spirits up. I could assent to that. For honestly, It did help to be wound in jewels, to send Their colors flashing forth from vents in the deep Fragrant sables that cloaked me head to foot. Over me then they wove a spell of shining — Purple and silver chains, eavesdripping tinsel, Amulets, milagros: software of silver, A heart, a little girl, a Model T Two staring eyes. Then angels, trumpets, BUD and BEA (The children's names) in clownlike capitals, Somewhere a music box whose tiny song Played and replayed I ended before long By loving. And in shadow behind me, a primitive IV To keep the show going. Yes, yes, what lay ahead Was clear: the stripping, the cold street, my chemicals Plowed back into the Earth for lives to come — No doubt a blessing, a harvest, but one that doesn't bear, Now or ever, dwelling upon. To have grown so thin. Needles and bone. The little boy's hands meeting About my spine. The mother's voice: Holding up wonderfully! No dread. No bitterness. The end beginning. Today's Dusk room aglow For the last time With candlelight. Faces love-lit, Gifts underfoot. Still to be so poised, so Receptive. Still to recall, to praise.

James Merril’s poem “Christmas Tree,” written while he was dying of AIDS. 1995.

save me star trek whale movie save me

i have had a horrid little headache now for a WEEK and it is getting WORSE and painkillers will not do much except take the edge off and i am SUFFERING !!!!!

genuinely horrifying decisions being made by councils across the kingdom. i said to stepdad, "JUST BEFORE THE WEEKEND???" and he was like, "thursday night isn't the weekend," but i'm sorry. i replied in full seriousness, "thursday is the new friday" so,,,

ok NO this is an outrage- sunday night is bad enough without having to deal with the bins too !!!

stepdad just told me they've moved bin day from tuesday to friday and entirely involuntarily i just shouted, "WHAT"

A photograph of the seminary gym in knives out. It has the same window.

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.

I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

merry christmas, loves <3
