"More than anything I was relieved that in my unfamiliar babbling-and-wanting-to-talk state I'd stopped myself from blurting the thing on the edge of my tongue, the thing I'd never said, even though it was something we both knew well enough without me saying it out loud to him in the street—which was, of course, I love you."
– The Goldfinch, by Donna Tartt
It's the first of December.... only 24 sleeps til the Amsterdam Ordeal 🥰🥰💖🎄
it's really such an experience to go from "oh this is really cool wow" to "aw man i like this so much i need to eat glass about it" i cant even pinpoint when it happened

maybe we should all watch the goldfinch and it chapter two again and read some richard siken and the secret history and all wear wool coats and long scarves while listening to the national's terrible love and then we can rediscover some long lost peace
to have failed is a sign you tried…. the mistakes, the relationships that didn’t make it, the job you didn’t get, the plans that fell through…. you tried, you lived, you loved.

donna tartt really said "being queer is like having something very precious and very rare and beautiful and life giving and the only real thing in a world of lies but you HAVE to keep hidden and a secret because it is a crime/morally wrong to have it/the world will fall apart beneath my feet if people find out/it will harm people I love if it comes to light/it is MINE and no one else's" and you expect me to be normal about her
