can confirm this is exactly how i email my teachers. it’s called poor mental health and being villianized by the school system while also basing all your self worth on how much academic success you achieve. love it. i Hate You Desperately and Will Die Without Your Approval.

there’s only two ways to email professors properly:

theres this orb in the sky ive been seeing. i see it every day i dont like it. not naming names

I, however, will be naming names, and Bertrum, if you’re out there, you’re blocking out the goddamn sun pretty much constantly, and there are some people that really need a good burning. We can work out a schedule if you so wish, but this is just entirely unacceptable.

The First Pride Was A Riot, More Specifically A Riot Against Police Violence. Trans Women Like Miss Major

The first pride was a riot, more specifically a riot against police violence. Trans women like Miss Major and other people of colour paved the way for the celebration of pride today. You cannot celebrate your pride this month, or any month if you aren’t also supporting Black Lives Matter and the riots going on against police violence right now. Us white LGBTQ+ need to stand up for our black siblings and their rights, their struggles. We need to amplify their voices and show any support we can. (Edited to add links and make the image clearer)

Extensive BLM Google doc including places to donate to, education resources, etc

List of 75 things white people can do right now

Simple way to donate to the cause if you have no money to

I saw a post about how to get a good vocabulary, so I would just like to offer my own advice. The only way to get a good, affordable vocabulary under capitalism is to steal it. Steal someone’s vocabulary.

My teachers: Hey! Just wanted to check in with you during these hard times. How are y’all?

Me talking about writing: It’s holy, to create. To make something out of nothing and emptiness. To make somethings broken and somethings full. Somethings tragic and somethings wonderful. To put into words that sharpness of living, the vivid colors, the ones that gray. How truely godly it is! How devine! To create in our own image, whatever image we wish. So is the nature of life! Out of us constantly emerging something, something, something. So is the nature of man, to make ourselves gods. What else is there but that? But our eternal making, time snatching at it with such clawing hands. What rebellious little things we are. What impudent, what childish, what stupid, what brilliant gods we are.

Me writing: click clack

Dancing to the loss of your own childhood is the best feeling. Like rip to past me but I’m different. (And that may be a bad thing, and that may be a good thing, but either way, here is something old and familiar and dying, and something new and unknown being born. And you’re scared. You’re sacred and numb and free and you’ve grown out of your own age. You’re young now, younger and stupider and more foolish than you’ve ever been. You know so little, you care so much. You’re a stranger, even to yourself. Especially to yourself. Something changed in you. Something’s lost to you. All that’s left to do now is dance and cry and laugh because it’s all a joke, the best joke in the whole goddam universe, and you might as well enjoy it while it lasts, because you can already feel that slipping away too.)

“Just cause I want to fucking die doesn’t mean you should kill me and also everyone else and just cause I hate my life and it’s fucking miserable doesn’t mean you get to make it, or anyone else’s life, more so... lol.”

What I love most about Gen Z is how unbothered but simultaneously extremely bothered we are in general

“I’ll probably die in my 20s and even that is an overestimation of my lifespan. I don’t even give a fuck I just want it to be over soon”

“I stg that if you old dumbfucks do not fix the damage you did to the earth I will put hot sauce in your contact lens solution. Also just vaccinate your kid Jillian they’re probably not gonna end up autistic, you absolute idiot”

Sometimes I just like... breathe. Like, oxygen. You know? Like I just am alive. Not sure if other people can relate, but sometimes I live. Not sure if I'm the only one who does this lol
