I had a dream about you last night

We waited for eachother like you said we would

I loved you like I always wanted to because you finally loved me back

We talked like old friends

Bites her tongue as he splits her lip

Nothing else to do with a baby on your hip

I'm getting the meadowlands farm every time I start a new save because I love my lil babies 🥰💕

nobody does it better than the stardew valley chicken

lets goooooo little dude you know exactly whats going on

y'all missing the whole point of stardew valley. it's supposed to be slow paced. you're a farmer. crops do now grow instantly and you wont be making millions in a season. enjoy the fucking game, take your fucking time. take days off to just forage and talk to people. aren't yall tired of the grind from real life??? do you want to experience burnout in a farming game too??????

Focusing on self improvement so I can treat my future wife right.

- Exercising to open jars and build a home for us.

- Eating right so I can be here, for her, longer.

- Learning to cook and clean to take the worries from her shoulders.

- Collecting hobbies so she'll never have to be bored with me.

- Painting so one day there will be canvases with her all over the walls

- Loving myself so I won't burden her with a self loathing narcissist.

- Teaching myself patience because I know I'll have to wait to find you.

I may not know you yet, my dear, but I promise that I've loved you always. 💕

We said I love you like it was a obligation not a declaration

Love was a law enforced out of a sense of duty

3 words, sometimes 2, said at the end of phone calls and before closing our eyes

Maybe it could've been more than a rule...

But giving our hearts was a liability neither was willing to risk

So sue me for ending the legal monotony in the political game of being "the love of your life"

— i think this is the first spring I’ve ever lived

Fog and fairies. The lights barely shine through and I feel the damp air all around me. I feel hidden. I feel safe.

Happy Easter

you'll run through every good woman like you ran the knife into my back.

nobody tears through library books quite as fast as a 12 yr old girl with no friends

No matter what I do, I will always be my mother's second child.

one of the biggest things I can advocate for (in academia, but also just in life) is to build credibility with yourself. It’s easy to fall into the habit of thinking of yourself as someone who does things last minute or who struggles to start tasks. people will tell you that you just need to build different habits, but I know for me at least the idea of ‘habit’ is sort of abstract and dehumanizing. Credibility is more like ‘I’ve done this before, so I know I can do it, and more importantly I trust myself to do it’. you set an assignment goal for the day and you meet it, and then you feel stronger setting one the next day. You establish a relationship with yourself that’s built on confidence and trust. That in turn starts to erode the barrier of insecurity and perfectionism and makes it easier to start and finish tasks. reframing the narrative as a process of building credibility makes it easier to celebrate each step and recognize how strong your relationship with yourself can become
