Feels, let me just say I love your blog. I used to follow you when I had a tumblr but deleted a long time ago when I realized how awful the site was. However I still look at your blog. I’m 21 working and school suffer from crippling depression and got out of a really abusive relationship, and I’ve been suicidal, and your words of confidence really shake me in reality and help me out (llooking nice, wake up early feeling sorry for myselfetc ) I hope one day I can achieve the confidence you have
I’m so insanely happy to see this–it makes me happy I haven’t left this place, despite wanting to from time to time. If you ever need to talk privately, just message me! You got this, I know you do!
Honestly some of the things you say I immediately don’t like, but I’ve learned after following you for a few years that it’s opened my mind more just hearing your thoughts on things and it’s helped me realize that I was the one holding myself back with these boundaries I put on myself for no reason. I sometimes still have a hard time with your thoughts but I realize more and more it’s because I have a problem with myself more than I have a problem with you. Thanks for teaching me to be me.
I may have said this to other anon messages in the past, but as of now, this is the best message I’ve ever gotten. You are awesome. I appreciate this so much!
Pet peeve #35,302 : The month before Valentine’s Day, when a horde of people online complain constantly about how much they hate it, and I have to wade through dozens of bitter posts in all of my social media feeds
“Ice Cave” by Georgia O’Keeffe and a photograph of an ice cave.
yeah Georgia? that’s an ice cave ? that’s a god damn ice cave? that’s the only thing you intended to paint? that’s it? just an ice cave?
all of georgia okeefes art is like this dont act surprised
It Really Is.
Staff seeing this:
i hate to ruin everyone’s fun BUT you guys are so annoying. georgia o’keeffe very specifically stated how much she hated it when people, especially men, sexualized her art. male art critics pushed the interpretation of her artwork as sexual onto her and it upset her VERY deeply:
“When people read erotic symbols into my paintings they’re really talking about their own affairs,” O’Keeffe said. Still, the sexualized misconceptions of her work devastated her. “I almost wept,” she wrote of one review in 1921.
now, because of some immature dudes in the art community, her work has been sexualized forever, and her paintings are now sexual objects. so like…making pussy jokes about her artwork isn’t just annoying, it’s disrespectful to everything she worked for, and it’s like rubbing her legacy in her face.
The male gaze really be like that sometimes huh?
I’m a woman and I saw a pussy.
Same
Those 100% look like vaginas and nothing will convince me otherwise.
Another girl here. Yep, them be vaginas
I think it’s less “immature males” and more immature people in general
It’s been three years since DashCon and Fyre Fest has happened. Meaning that in accordance to the Rule of Three, in another three years, a third and final gathering catastrophe will occur with its own symbol joining the ball pit and concierge stand to create an ungodly trifecta.
I have a kid and I immediately leave places if he starts acting up. My anxiety gets horrible so I don’t understand how people can just ignore their kid screaming in public.
You haven’t turned into a mombie, I salute you. I don’t get it either, I’m just always really hyper-aware of the people around me. I think it’s called ‘common decency.’
Lol, if me or any of my siblings got cranky or were about to cause a scene in a restaurant, my parents would just ask for the bill and end the night there. They knew it was no use trying to calm three babies at once. I wish parents nowadays, or, at least, where I work, had tactics like that
I've cleaned, I've organized, I've eaten a sweet treat, I've made a wall shelf out of a discarded pallet and I still can't seem to shake this niggling feeling in the back of my head. It's definitely not the healthiest option but I've decided to indulge it a little bit, just gonna get drunk, it's early enough that I'll be sober before I sleep and hopefully it'll enough to take care of it.
There are worse things you could do. I hope that’ll do the trick. We’ve all been there.
Can't shake this feeling that I need to do something self destructive
Doing that won’t help. Instead, look for one positive thing you can do. Doesn’t have to be big. Take a long hot bath and listen to music. Clean out your closet. Eat one of your favorite foods. Something to bring you up, not take you down.
