HELLOOO ursula k leguin the one and only ‘The trouble is that we have a bad habit, encouraged by pedants and sophisticates, of considering happiness as something rather stupid. Only pain is intellectual, only evil interesting. This is the treason of the artist; a refusal to admit the banality of evil and the terrible boredom of pain.’ What a ba......   reply

this will become a pattern. and soon enough you will find yourself making allowances for this person where you arrange for a time say, 2pm, and then mentally write it off as 3pm because they’re known to be late. These people never hold themselves accountable. It’s always going to be your fault. ‘You know I’m always an hour late, I need to b......   1 reply

My mom was frantic and took me to a quack doctor next door who prayed over me, put on this white veil on my head, ......   reply

Okra. I’ll take it blanched, fried, freeze dried. My friends think it’s vegetable variety of snot though. If I die and miraculously appear in front of you, hand me a glass of draft beer. if I don’t puke it out, then you’re talking to a skinwalker wearing my meatsuit.   2 reply
