How It Feels Knowing That Life Has Not Forgotten You, That It Holds You In Its Hand And Will Not Let

The "kids are on their damn phones all the time" conversation has changed in an extremely significant way and I'm not sure people realize it. When kids had flip phones, and even in the early days of smartphones, kids were using their phones to text each other. It was part of an active social life. Now they're using their phones more and more to consume content from influencers or other accounts. It's more passive and it's increasingly what people are doing instead of socializing with each other. This applies to adults too, I just keep thinking about high school students.

knife theory

if the pain you caused me was something straight-forward and physical like a knife to my heart, how would i react?

in one universe i would look you dead in the eye as you twist and turn the knife inside of me instead of begging you to stop.

in another universe i would leave the knife in me until scar-tissue grows over it and it becomes part of me.

in the last universe i pull the knife out from where you put it in between my ribs and stab you with it as i bleed to death. then lick the blade and let the iron of us both be my last meal.
