every time i feel like i haven’t done enough things to be proud of myself during the day there’s the voice of louise glück that emerges softly in my ears and says if you missed a day there’s always the next and if you missed a year it didn’t matter the hills weren’t going anywhere the thyme and rosemary kept coming back.. and i feel like life is beautiful and kind to me again
when oliver marks said "i didn't want to leave him" and "he seemed so fragile i was afraid to touch him" and "i wanted to give richard ten bruises for every one he'd put on james" and "[i] was still holding james but not sure why" and "i wanted him [...] unhurt and unafraid more than i wanted richard alive" and "james, are you okay?" "you okay?" "something's bothering you?" "are you sure?" "are you alright?" "can you tell me what's wrong?" "i just want to help, let me help, okay?" "you can tell me. even if it's bad, even if it's really bad" "it's okay" "it'll be okay" "we'll find a way to fix this" "we'll sort it out" "we'll figure it out" "you know why."
being a purple hyacinth and school bus graveyard fan at the same time is seeing the word "phantoms" and getting confused whether the context is about a bunch of hot reckless buffoons running around blowing shit up just to prove their point, or about creepy ass gangly creatures made of black goo that have a very charming smile 😌✨
save me bitching
whining save me
save me complaining
