hello, i’m kat

lady gaga was right. stop telephoning me.

my blog hurts

tumblr updated and now all the icons have scars and slashes and gashes and wounds and blemishes and tears and rips and abscesses and fractures and bruises and cuts and scrapes and clefts and fissures and notches and incisions and lacerations and lesions and rents and holes and dents and burns and sprains and faults and lumps and shit like that

my christmas cookie decoration was the survivorship bias diagram

oh dear. pour one out for @staff today folks

A thing that I made that I thought was funny

hi, a lot of you need a perspective reset

• the average human lifespan globally is 70+ years
• taking the threshold of adulthood as 18, you are likely to spend at least 52 years as a fully grown adult
• at the age of 30 you have lived less than one quarter of your adult life (12/52 years)
• 'middle age' is typically considered to be between 45-65
• it is extremely common to switch careers, start new relationships, emigrate, go to college for the first or second time, or make other life-changing decisions in middle age
• it's wild that I even have to spell it out, but older adults (60+) still have social lives and hobbies and interests.
• you can still date when you get old. you can still fuck. you can still learn new skills, fashionable, be competitive. you can still gossip, you can still travel, you can still read. you can still transition. you can still come out.
• young doesn't mean peaked. you're inexperienced in your 20s! you're still learning and practicing! you're developing social skills and muscle memory that will last decades!
• there are a million things to do in the world, and they don't vanish overnight because an imaginary number gets too big

I did 20 popular tumblr users' "Top 100/150 Movies" listicles and compiled the top 101 that reoccur frequently <3
