oh

Exactly. This is exactly it

Logically I know that, but I still just hate doing it. I never want to feel like I’m taking advantage of someone or overstepping or mooching or like I’m a burden 🥲

And like I love my family! I have good parents! Who don’t suck! And who have space for me and are able to and want to support me as best they can! I know I’m lucky in that! But it doesn’t change the fact that I feel like I’m being stifled and can’t live my life.

Anyway. Yeah. Rant over.

I don’t know. Like I had a moment the other night where I was trying to do some organizing in my room and I just wanted to SCREAM because I’m sick of all my stuff being crammed in one room and I just. I need space to grow and breathe and feel free and creative and I feel so stuck

Like I’m seriously reaching my limit on living with my parents. I want my own space so badly. I have a friend who’s marrying a guy who makes a ton of money and they’ve offered to help if I need any financial help and I am honestly seriously considering reaching out even though I hate asking for help

Yall I cannot believe that it’s been like. *Months* now since I’ve read any fic. It’s not like I love ofmd any less or that the brain rot is leaving. It’s that the world and living at home and EVERYTHING is just sucking the joy and motivation and desire to do things right out of me and I *hate it*

Two cartoony drawings of Ed teach as a pufferfish merperson (porcupine fish slightly more accurate), in the first he is smiling, relaxed and happy, in the second he is angry and startled, his tail is puffed up and spiny, and his hair is flowing around him to make himself look bigger.

I’m so honored to be rated five holes 😌😌😌😌😌😌

Dearest pirate pal that needs to hear this. You are just a little creature. You're doing what you have to to survive in a very hostile world right now. You belong in this safe space. You're loved. Give yourself the grace you would give others.

I NEED IT

A++++++++++++++++++++++

I cannot rewatch this series because of it. Anytime I even think about it I get so fucking mad like what do you MEAN YOU SPENT AN ENTIRE SEASON ON A WEDDING AND THEN HAD THEM GET DIVORCED 5 MINUTES IN

The little bat for sure 🥹

Stede frowning

Ed frowning

The couple who frown together stay together, or something like that.

I don't know, it's been a long day 😀

A digital drawing of Stede and Ed in a clawfoot bathtub. Both are nude. Stede is holding Ed from behind in a hug. Ed is curled up, his face against stedes arm. The drawing is zoomed far out so they they look small.

Hey. I'm your friend.

HAVE THE BEST TIME. April 10 for me!!!!!

Peace is coming 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

Ceremonials seriously, with all the water and drowning imagery too. Crazy. She was writing about Ed before OFMD was even a glimmer in David’s eye

And Love is the one that *fucks me over* re Ed. Like “and love was not what I thought it was. It crept up on me despite myself….more like surrendering to something and more like resting than running” HELLOOOOO

LITERALLY. Everybody Scream is about Ed, Florence is one of us confirmed

Like I *love* This Woman’s Work *obviously* for Ed’s rebirth/resurrection but *fuck* man, Florence would also have gone so hard

Spotify screenshot of Never Let Me Go by Florence + the Machine: Lookin’ up from underneath Fractured moonlight on the sea Reflections still look the same to me As before I went under And it’s peaceful in the deep Cathedral where you cannot breathe No need to pray, no need to speak Now I am under all And it’s breaking over me

Spotify screenshot of Never Let Me Go by Florence + the Machine: A thousand miles down to the seabed Found the place to rest my head Never let me go, never let me go Never let me go, never let me go And the arms of the ocean are carrying me And all this devotion was rushing out of me And the crashes are heaven for a sinner like me But the arms of the ocean delivered me

Spotify screenshot of Never Let Me Go by Florence + the Machine: Though the pressure’s hard to take It’s the only way I can escape It seems a heavy choice to make But now I am under, oh And it’s breaking over me A thousand miles down to the seabed Found the place to rest my head Never let me go, never let me go Never let me go, never let me go

Spotify screenshot of Never Let Me Go by Florence + the Machine: Slipping underneath So, so cold but so sweet In the arms of the ocean, so sweet and so cold And all this devotion I never knew at all And the crashes are heaven for a sinner released And the arms of the ocean delivered me Never let me go, never let me go Never let me go, never let me go

I’m relistening to Florence + the Machine in preparation to see her next month and. Listen. Never Let Me Go. Is so Ed-coded?????

They are so precious I love them 🥹💜

Had to draw them…
Challenge! See if you can figure out which book covers I used as a reference (very difficult) (unsolvable)
