Are we special or just weird?: My takeaway from... →
confusedtree:
I guess what I’m getting at (and by my argument/interpretation, the show itself is getting at as well) is that we shouldn’t be so hard on ourselves with this idea of “running in place”, that personal definitions of success are allowed to be fluid and maybe even move in a sine wave pattern, and that the people we love and the people we see every single day factor very much into...

I have been rendered entirely incapable of hearing anything besides “we’ll rub a Mexican monkey” during the vocoder bridge in the new Daft Punk song
…well now I can’t unhear it.
I have a photoblog thing →
sometimes I travel, sometimes I take photos

Lament
I’ve been trying to find the right career/job for what seems like an eternity. but after a while, all the job interviews and business meetings just get tiring, and seem pointless. either I’m not right for the company, or the company’s not right for me.
and sometimes I lie awake at night and wonder: what is wrong with me? how many more people do I have to meet, how many free...

My first wedding dance has to be to every single chapter of Trapped In The Closet that has been released at the time of said wedding and you may be thinking “whoever you’re marrying isn’t going to go for that” to which I would respond “why the fuck am I marrying them then”

ostwinner replied to your photoset: a cafe called Lord House. it’s pretty nice.
So pretty! Where is it and was the food good?
it’s in Kensington, kind of near UNSW.
the dumplings were pretty crappy, tbh. but a pretty, playhouse atmosphere and okay coffee.

There are so many things I love about the human body, but my favourite is its ability to heal itself.
Sometimes I will look at a patch of recently injured skin that’s scabbing over and whisper “you are amazing”.
Maybe I won’t get married, y’know? Maybe I’ll do one of those...
