“i light all the candles, cut flowers for all my rooms, i care for myself the way i used to care about you”
have u ever loved a lyric so much that when u hear it feels like ur heart is trying to burst out of ur body
— Lorde, Sober II (Melodrama)
“The lights are out on all of us. We go on in our dark fogs. Unless someone else turns to look your way & lights the light.”
— Molly Brodak, from Bandit
Hello Void I went to the Lorde concert tonight and my life literally changed I am healed, so many bangers, divine unmatched vibes, top 10 life experience chefs kiss
My fanart based on the fan fic Melodrama on ao3!
Don’t repost! (And if you do, credit me. Or I will haunt you down)
Mass is not proportional to volume, A girl as small as a violet, A girl who moves like a flower petal is pulling me towards her with a stronger force than her mass. Just then, like Newton’s apple, I rolled towards her till I fell on her with a thump, my heart was bouncing between the ground and the sky, It was my first love.

I've been thinking a lot about the relationship between gothic romance, melodrama, and fanfiction (mostly Re: POTO) and how they've been shunted into the category of "women's media." Like women and queer folks have been writing their desires into media for centuries and being told that such desires--the excess, the sensationalism/sensuality, the emotional transcendence--are not "realistic" and only good for aesthetic consumption in its place.
But then you look at the general endurance of "women's media" through time...and the fact that even in a capitalistic world obsessed with monetization and the "hyper-real," there are whole fandoms/online communities where authors are writing fanfics with hundreds of thousands of hits for FREE and where third spaces and alternative economies based on trading and sharing have taken shape around the very same desires deemed "unrealistic"....
Idk where I was going with that, but someone gets the point. Is it that queer and feminine desire are "silly," or do they imagine other ways of living and relating to each other, our bodies, our emotions that certain power structures want us to think is impossible?
hello everyone!!
you may have noticed that i wasn’t on here for a long time and the truth is, i just don’t have the energy to post anything anymore. i’ll be going on an indefinite hiatus until i can get my life back together. this blog will still be available for viewing but no new posts will be made. thank you for everything.

Jake: Isa, doctor! I've developed a double heartbeat since my operation.
Isa: Ah, so that's where my wristwatch went.
Jake: HOW- You’re freaking qualified!
Jake: I feel like you don’t care about me at all.
Isa: Not true, I kept your blanket when you were gone.
Jake: Exactly! I didn’t have a blanket!
Isa: Well I’ll be damned.
Isa: I am going to name my kid Pac-man so he can see ghosts.
Jake: If we shouldn't eat at night, why do they put a light in the fridge?
Isa: In case there’s a blackout and we need to stress eat again.
Isa: If Google matched people up by their browsing history, it could be the greatest online dating website of all time.
Jake: Or the greatest disaster.
Jake: Do you even know what mitosis is?
Isa: Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand.
Jake: What do you call a boomerang that doesn't come back?
Isa: A stick.
Isa: His finest hour lasted a minute and a half.
Jake: It was two minutes, but good try.
Isa: Why can’t any of you ever clean up after yourselves?
Jake: I have a person who does that for me:
Isa: Yeah, ME.
Jake: I’m glad you agree.
