just saw someone reviewing the erin hunter books like, ‘they should publish the whole series at once, i don’t want to wait a whole year to read it’. like babe i hate to break it to you but,,,, go touch some grass and think about your relationship with consumerism okay, because it’s gotten really weird on you

"she killed innocent people" ok well her eyes are literally big and brown and sad so she can do whatever

"Maybe none of this is about control. Maybe it isn't really about who can own whom, who can do what to whom and get away with it, even as far as death. Maybe it isn't about who can sit and who has to kneel or stand or lie down, legs spread open.

Maybe it's about who can do what to whom and be forgiven for it."

-Margaret Atwood, 'The Handmaid's Tale'

sunday 18th october ‘20 ☁️—

i’ve been studying nonstop all weekend and i’m so. tired. i finally got it all done and i’m genuinely really proud of myself because i didn’t think i would physically be able to, so i’m gonna spend my sunday afternoon back in bed with tea, beans on toast and celebs go dating (my guilty pleasure show please don’t come for me i don’t know why i watch it either)

if any of yall are interested in poetry and learning how to read, analyse, and appreciate a poem, check out this free course by the University of York that goes in-depth about reading poetry! i’m taking it now and it’s really good, 10/10 would recommend to anyone who is even a little bit interested in poetry

For old times sake is actually such a heartbreaking and beautiful sentiment. Like, let’s do it for the love that used to be here. It is reason enough.

@storyseekers event 17: art in books

Caring too much for objects can destroy you. Only—if you care for a thing enough, it takes on a life of its own, doesn’t it? And isn’t the whole point of things—beautiful things—that they connect you to some larger beauty?

life is really just like. the world is crumbling around us and here i am doing the dishes. and taking meticulous care of the little houseplant i bought last month. and making my friends cups of tea. and cleaning my bathroom.

#and these are the most important bits of my day #i adore humanity’s ability to just… carry on
