Fortune Teller Reading My Palm: It Just Says “yikes.”

b) id finally be dead

— Deathless, Catherynne M. Valente (via compelledbybooks)

me: [listens to a new song]

my brain, upon receiving one single hit of Döpamine™: we shall listen to only this song until we have wrung every last neurotransmitter out of it

Weird how engraving someone’s name on a dagger signifies that dagger’s owner, but engraving it on a bullet signifies the bullet’s intended target.
