i hate people who know chess and highways. don't say numbers to me
I find it kind of stupid how 'half full' vs 'half empty' is framed as an optimist/pessimist thing. If it starts full and gets halfway drained, it's half empty. If it starts empty and gets halfway filled, it's half full. If you don't know the starting state it's both simultaneously.

It's the suicide thought spiral that kills you inside.
Ok so this post is extremely long and I put it all together for my blogs Feeling sad page but as I donβt have a huge amount of followers I realize so many people are not seeing this information so Iβm posting it here too!
alternatives without harming yourself:
holding/squeezing ice.
splashing your face with water.
getting a rubber band and snapping it against your skin (this could hurt, though itβs better than other ways that people usually choose to self-harm).
take a hot shower or bath.
eat something sour. it will take your mind of the urge. (lemon, sour lollies)
massage where you want to self-harm.
get a red pen or red paint and draw/paint over where you usually self-harm.
remind yourself as to why you shouldnβt do it. (scars, harms organs, leave memories etcβ¦)
describe what you are feeling. (is the urge/pain in your chest, fists, legs, arms, head).
killing yourself will not help. it is not a solution.
you have your whole life ahead of you. you have so many more years that you can accomplish things in. for example;
having a family.
getting married.
to watch the sun rise.
to watch the sun set.
to save someone elseβs life.
finish school.
get your dream job.
to laugh.
to smile.
to go camping.
travel to new places.
to wake up every morning to the person you love.
friends.
family.
to keep that promise you made.
to accomplish a goal.
to meet your idol.
to listen to new music.
theme parks.
video games.
chocolate.
to be able to look back and say βi made itβ.
what youβre going through is temporary.
in case you need to hear this:
you are loved.
you are wanted.
you are needed.
you are beautiful.
you are handsome.
you are important.
you are not alone.
you are okay.
you are strong.
you are worth it.
you are smart.
you are not a failure.
you are useful.
you are going to be okay.

Just heard a woman scream BABY DON'T HURT ME in response to a philosophy major ask what is love. God this fucking planet.
i lied. put your clothes back on. we're going to watch dead poets society while i psychoanalyse every character and express my thoughts after every scene cut.
When your favourite teacher of all time who kinda looks like the middle brother between Hank and John Green, teaching your favourite subject of all time, leaves abruptly and now you have no one to talk about literature with<<<<<<<<<<<
I just know this will mentally destroy me.
okay HAYMITCH! O M G
it's Me the Problem
This is my blog, I do quite a few things here:
1. Write about murder, depression and Satan.
2. Rant about things that are probably not relatable but adding a #relatable tag anyway.
3. Dante Quotes. Lots and Lots of Dante Quotes. An unholy amount of Dante Alighieri Quotes. "Surrender all hope ye who enter".
4. Write about book reviews or opinions on certain pieces of literature or classical artwork.
5. The Umbrella Academy. No explanation needed. Steve Blackman I'm coming for you after S4.
6. Be the least judgmental person you will ever meet. Seriously my ask box is open to anyone who needs to talk.
7. πππ
Edit because new obsessions detected.
8. Green Day
9. Bo Burnham
10. Seinfeld. Seinfeld. Chinese Restaurant Episode. (Yes ik he dated minors but the show is PEAK comfort)
11. Bassists being neglected by the band.
12. THE HUNGER GAMES AND HARRY POTTAH (yes ik jk Rowling is a bigot, no I don't support her, but it heals some of my childhood trauma so let me have this).
13. m a r v e l. Shhhhhh.... Don't tell
Just realised I need to add a DNI:
Creeps, people asking for donations IM BROKE. Homophobes, racists, MAGA, pyramid schemes.
Stuff I would like:

Philosophical debates and discussions
Literary analysis and critiques
Family shit.
I'm kinda scared of posting my poetry on the internet, because what if someone steals and gets people to connect with them and I'm the actual author. I couldn't bear the thought of having a chance at making connections and friends and tortured poet interns and then losing it to a thief with a facade.
Respect for the people who do have the courage to post their poetry though, you're amazing.
Admittedly, I hate coffee, and I used to tell people that I loved it and it was my favourite drink but after reading An Abundance of Katherine's I kinda just realised that, in the words of John Green, "It tastes like stomach bile."
Don't get me wrong though, like Colin I love the IDEA of coffee, it tastes like my soul and it's Five's favourite drink. The beverage of choice for sarcastic smart people is honestly overrated, and that's probably the only reason I drink it like it's the ambrosia of the gods or something. (Plus the added benefits of staying awake long enough to finish that 5000 word essay due tomorrow)
Anyways 5/10 drink, would not recommend. Get yourself a bottle of Jack Daniels and/or some overly carbonated soda and you're good.
( Coffee flavoured things though...)
Just started reading Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts. Opinions/Reviews?
Daylight was leaving us, and darkened air drawing those creatures that there are on earth from all their labours.
- Inferno, Dante (Canto 2)
Valère Bernard (1860-1936) - Le Cauchemar (The Nightmare), c. 1860-1900
I think about this constantly
