semicolons are not only for formal essays and anyone who tells you otherwise wants to deprive you of the second most satisfying punctuation mark; do NOT believe them. i promise they get no bitches

I love it when people use "shrimp" to mean "beyond the human range". like "shrimp colors" but applied to other things. "shrimp emotions" "shrimp sounds" "shrimp morality", as if shrimp are living some kind of transcendent existence that humans can never comprehend

“Gays can’t drive” posts drive me nuts. Everyone knows that Gays have their Designated Gay who learned how to drive, and now does all the driving.

I really like “pretentious” writing styles. Complex language, labyrinthine sentences, long parenthetical asides… I love them. It’s like going on a scenic tour and encountering strange and wondrous new sights and sounds. Language is beautiful and words are free, so why be economical? Indulge! Be decadent!

Have you ever reached that point where you’re so consumed by a book that literally nothing else matters anymore and all you want to do is read and not study or do anything productive because none of it matters anymore because THIS BOOK

Mix your aesthetics.
Listen to The Killers or Queen or Foo Fighters whilst annotating Shakespeare. Drink coco-cola out of a wine glass. Wear those black spikey punk heels to an art gallery. Wear smudged eyeliner and red lipstick but keep your hands perfectly manicured. Rock out to classical composers whilst you spead along the coast.
Mix your aesthetics. We don’t have to be one thing. We contain multitudes.

please stop saying that white people have been oppressed.
and stop using jews as an example. as a jew, please stop that comparison. we weren’t oppressed for being white. it was because we were jewish. it was religious oppression, NOT racial oppression. they’re not the same.
this isn’t about us.
this is about black people and black struggles. stop making the conversation about anyone else.
