we've got a life to love living.
advice that has literally saved and improved my life

When you drink a minuscule amount of alcohol and still get absolutely wasted: Night of the Hog
When you drink a ton and yet feel nothing out of the ordinary: Night of the Wolf
I reference this literally every time I'm at a bar because I somewhat convinced I saw it in a tumblr post somewhere but I have been informed that this is not in fact a known tumblr post in circulation and I was shown a prophetic vision at some point leading me to form the dichotomy from first principals
My most referenced meme is actually this sign from a furniture store's going out of business sale in my hometown.
Since this is gaining traction again, here are the final ones. These had been on separate posts but I suppose they'll be more likely to be noticed here.
I doubt I'll post any more after this but I highly encourage others to go find more. YouTube has tons of old movie trailers and there is PLENTY of gold left to find.

Oh no, a plan I had today was cancelled, now I have to allocate that block of time to something else but it has Plan Residue all over it, fuck,
please practice being excited about stuff.
yeah, I said "practice". remember how much joy there was in getting a new toy/book/game as a kid, and practice feeling that excitement again. a lot of us had that instinct squashed out of us, and you may not even know that you've internalized the idea that being excited and joyful isn't "mature" or "cool".
fuck that! let yourself experience joy and excitement! part of being an adult is learning that not only should you be able to feel anger/sadness/hard emotions without suppressing them, you have to do that for joy/excitement/wonder too.
let yourself feel unhindered, unbridled excitement!
Do it.
Giggle at crows playing in snow.
Catch snowflakes on your tongue.
Coo over and take a picture of the cool caterpillar or colorful bug you come across.
Stare at the sky and see shapes in the clouds.
Jump in puddles
Those watching may look like they’re sneering but, believe me, they are so jealous of you right now.
Also. Let yourself express joy and wonder physically, in your body. This is for autistic people who have been so conditioned to suppressing their stims they don’t allow themselves to physically react to joy. But this is also for allistic people who have been conditioned to feel like wriggling or waving or whatever in joy makes them look immature. It doesn’t. It’s unbearably cute. Wriggle in joy, it helps make the joy infectious, and it helps your body process it. Get wigglin’
