So, my mom hates my dad’s side of the family, and my dad hates my mom’s side of the family. And now my grandma (which is really mean to my mom and my siblings and me) is going to be staying with us for a while and im gonna be living in hell.

Why can’t my dad put a limit and choose my mom? And god i hate this.

Reblog if “Who We Are” was a religious experience for you

i have been rearranged at a molecular level

Sometimes I just sit here and think about how Rick really wrote the Gayest, most heartbreaking, angsty love story between Percy and Nico that spanned across 2 book series, just to try and end it with, "lol jk 🤪"

the worst thing in the world is doing things. the second worst thing in the world is not doing things. how has no one ever come up with a solution for this

i honestly don’t know how this happened but somewhere between my childhood and formative years i forgot how to exist like a normal person and started to either overthink everything or make disastrous choices without any proper thinking at all. no middle ground whatsoever

dudes who are normal will be like im joker insane but women who have not felt real since they were seven will be like im average normal

When will go the feeling of feeling like a burden?

the worst thing ever is when people know your weaknesses

Like i don’t want to you to pity me

literally nothing makes me happier that no one would ever know this account exist

im in my teenage girl era where i have to use baggy clothes because i hate to see my body

U can grieve and still live life. U can miss loving someone and love others. You can hold onto the good moments and simultaneously the bad moments. You can take the learning from a person you let go off and use it for the better. You can love someone and they may not be the right person. You can wish someone the best and love them from a distance. You can think fondly of someone and never talk to them again.. mysteries of the world…

why am i the way that i am and why is this the only perspective i’ll ever fully see through and why is every day a struggle and why is grief forever and why is everything getting more and more expensive and why is there no version of the future that feels right

i am nothing in my soul if not fucking dumb

Re-reading books is great and good until it’s The Secret History by Donna Tartt and you realize that within Julian’s first lecture we are witness to he speaks of Tiberius, a flawed Emperor held in disdain by his people, partially on the account he followed Augustus- a savior, a god. He spent his life striving to life up to his predecessors name and when he couldn’t, he indulged his perversions in an effort to feel something, but ultimately “died, old and mad, lost in the pleasure gardens of Capri: not even happy there, as one might hope, but miserable.”

Re-reading books is great and good until it’s The Secret History by Donna Tartt and you realize that just like Tiberius tried to follow in Augustus’s footsteps, Henry tried to follow in Julian’s. You see Richard’s focus shift from Julian- who was at first a savior, a god- to Henry, a flawed student of his who, at his end, is held in disdain by the majority of his closest friends and is lost in the indulgence of his own perversions- his attempts (and, arguable, success) to finally live without thinking.

Re-reading books is great and good until it’s The Secret History by Donna Tartt and you get to the part where Richard asks Henry in his dream, “are you happy here?” And Henry responds, “Not particularly” and you realize that Henry, like Tiberius, had never known peace or happiness in life and certainly not in death and you were warned about it in Julian’s first lecture.

TSH spoilers:

I feel like we as a fandom do not talk about Henry’s symbolism in TSH enough. Like, that dude is the literal embodiment of death, and I just think it’s so damn cool. I mean, his whole obsession with language and literature stemmed from the fact that he almost died in a car accident. And then every death we see in the book (the farmer’s, Bunny’s, and his very own) is directly at his hands. The others were accomplices, sure, but Henry’s the one who takes action every time. And in Francis’s failed suicide and Richard’s near death in the epilogue, they both see Henry, not Bunny or Charles or what have you.

Henry is not only obsessed with death, he IS death. He’s the reaper who’s friends toy with their mortality all the time through drugs and booze. The reason they all admire him is not only because of his size and stature and brilliance; it’s because he’s dangerous. If beauty is indeed terror, than he’s the most beautiful of them all. They all have the life preservation skills of a fly, so of course they love Henry. And of course his actions constantly bring them closer to danger and death.

normalize reading a book without caring if the spine breaks, folded cover, misspelled annotations and just ruining the book completely as a form of art

We need everyone's help right now to protect the rainforest and Indigenous People

The Amazon Rainforest is under a massive threat. I know you've heard this a million times, but this is different. There is a piece of legislation that will decimate the rights of Indigenous people of Brazil, who have been protecting the rainforest. It's unfathomably bad. It has majority support. And they're voting tomorrow. As reported here, the Bill allows "the Brazilian government to find energy resources, set up military bases, develop strategic roads, and implement commercial agriculture on protected Indigenous tribal lands, without any prior discussion with the affected peoples."

The thing you can do—and I know this sounds overly simple—is sign this petition—and tell your friends to do the same: SIGN HERE.

As reported here, the Bill allows "the Brazilian government to find energy resources, set up military bases, develop strategic roads, and implement commercial agriculture on protected Indigenous tribal lands, without any prior discussion with the affected peoples."

Again, this bill has majority support. You may be wondering, why will a petition signed by people who don't live in Brazil make any difference? Because it will give those opposing it political air cover. It will show the world is with them.

But we need a LOT of signatures.

Please do this simple act and spread the word.

Nico canonically being the least dense and the most sensible when it comes to relationships and romance among the big three kids lives rent free in my mind

I love Nico so much for this

Y’all don’t understand the things i would do to be fictional :(

gay ppl be like.. hands

Solangelo is grumpy x sunshine but in the opposite direction of what people seem to interpret it. Like the reason it's a fun ship is that it subverts what you'd expect based on their outward appearances. Nico is a sweetheart who acts intimidating because he's scared to get close to people, Will is a rude little gremlin who fakes being calm and okay because he needs to be a good leader. The whole point is that they get to be themselves around each other. The whole point is them being an odd couple who don't see themselves as an odd couple.

It’s the middle of the night. Chiron should probably get some sleep. Looking out of his window he sees two boys, they’re stargazing. Achilles! He thinks. Patroclus!

It’s only then that he realises that Patroclus’ skin is way too white and as glorious as Achilles was, he definitely didn’t light up like a glow stick in the night. It’s not them. It’s just Nico and Will.

It’s been over 2000 years, they’re dead, Chiron, they’re dead.

Nico saying he and Bob were “melancholy about their mutual ‘friend’ Percy Jackson, who never seemed to remember they existed” HAS BROKEN MY HEART bc I don’t want this sentence to exist but he’s spitting facts ykno

me and the followers i pulled by saying nothing and sharing other peoples pretty images
