everything will be alright once we get to wintery bay

shoutout to slow growers, late bloomers, people whose plans got derailed by circumstances beyond their control or their own choices, people who never had a plan to begin with, people who have had to start over when theyre too old to feel like theyre supposed to be where they are, people who cant pretend theyre built for the environment theyre in, and everyone who's not living the life they thought they would. im proud of you for making it this far and i hope you keep going until youre happy ♡

the most annoying people are people who don't understand storytelling. they be like "oooo how convenient that this thing happened to the main character in the very beginning". yeah no shit. that's why the story begins here

idk how everyone isnt hopelessly infatuated with chickadees. they say their own names. got real close to one yesterday and it was so small and round. it looked like a toy. no way you’re real, i said. but it was. and it did a sick lil hop down to a new branch

🎶You deserve to get paid! Let them know that!🎵

More edits I made instead of studying :))

okay actually i can't stop thinking about a conversation i had with @smlmaster

he's only seen it once and i've seen it more times than i can count because it was the foundational movie of my childhood

susan having her horn with her when they hunted the white stag's kinda crazy fr because they didn't have any of their other gifts. none of them were armed. like obviously it wasn't that kind of hunt. but also, she brought the horn. she brought it just in case. do you think it was just fate or do you think it was because she never really felt safe again after rabadash

What’s going to make you happy right now? Is it some cake? Is it a nap? Is it calling your mom? Is it going on a drive and blasting music? Is it taking a bath? Is it reading a book?

Check in with yourself because you deserve that happiness, whatever it is.

I use this with my hospice patients a lot. Because “is there anything I can do to help?” rarely gets a response. But, “I’ll be here till 6:30 and would like to do one thing to make your room more comfortable before I head out” frequently does get an answer. Often something they deem “too small to bug anyone with” like closing the blinds so there’s no reflection on the tv, or repositioning their socks because the heels have wandered into the front and are uncomfortable, or they want ice cream before dinner today, or getting an extra blanket.

I also use this on myself. What’s one thing I could do to make my environment more comfortable right now? Does it cure my mental illness? Hell no! Does it make me feel more in control of my feelings and the world around me? You betcha!

I’m going to try to apply this to my current situation, since right now things feel very out of control. Thanks!

acting, what a tacky business

one of the guys in the kitchen at work got called irritating and replied “I am not irritating. You just find me irritating. There are many people who love me.” I think we should all adopt his attitude

if movies about the American west made in Spain by Italians are "spaghetti westerns", then I think we need a name for medieval-Europe fantasy movies made in America in the 80s-90s that have synth in the soundtrack. because that is such a vibe.
