it's always really funny when fandom people try to paint themselves as brave rebel outliers for enjoying the most normative stuff imaginable. you sound like youth pastors. 'hey, you know what's really edgy and kinky and transgressive?? monogamy.'

Having seen maybe 1% of any 911 posts on my dash since the last episode: wait, do people really think you can actively tell a person’s sexuality by looking at or hearing them, or is this just being played as a (tiring) joke, because I honestly cannot tell anymore :/

The duality of man is thinking “children cannot help themselves and we all need to be patient with them as they explore what it means to be human in public” and also “damn, I wish this crying baby was not on the plane rn :/“

Just as courage is not the absence of fear but doing the brave thing in spite of it, patience is not the absence of irritation but doing the kind thing in spite of it.

When I stop and think about the media that is important to me, I realise that I love my favourite books in an aro way and I love my favourite shows in an aro way and I love my favourite songs in an aro way…

So many of the things that are important to me are important to me for reasons that relate to my aromanticism. Even when aro reasons aren't a big factor in why I love something, I still love it in an aro way. The aspects I focus on, the way I interpret things, the things I imagine outside of canon... It's all are deeply connected to my aromanticism.

my corner store guy is a 50 year old man who's my best friend in the world and recently he was like "you're too pretty to be single I have some nephews you should meet. very handsome!" and I was like "a niece might be more up my alley" and he just got more excited and said "ah even better! I was overselling my nephews but my nieces are very beautiful"

OP the tags!!

Six. Point. Seven. Seconds. / The crowd went wild. Shane threw his arms over his head and celebrated more than was probably necessary or sportsmanlike, but fuck, it felt good. / He smirked at Rozanov as he skated back to his teammates. Rozanov wasn’t smiling now, but the look in his eyes was… / Shane flushed[.]

Ilya with his competency kink and Shane with his obsessive need to be perfect 😏

"senseless tragedy" they do tend to be, yeah

99% of sufferers quit before they find the meaning that rationalises all the pain they've endured. KEEP DIGGING DEEPER INTO THE WOUND UNTIL IT YIELDS.
