A poem, being an instance of language, hence essentially dialogue, may be a letter in a bottle thrown out to sea with the—surely not always strong—hope that it may somehow wash up somewhere, perhaps on a shoreline of the heart.
—Paul Celan, from “Speech on the Occasion of Receiving the Literature Prize of the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen” (1958), trans. Rosmarie Waldrop

Tumblr copied Twitter's layout and they did in such a way that it's cramped, difficult and not pleasant to look at, and not even a space-efficient way of doing it... Can't you guys go back to just, y'know, breaking the entire website every time you try to update something and not this and the userbase spent the entire time laughing at them for their pathetic management and never giving them a break instead of babying corporations
Edit: and now activity partially covers your dashboard instead of filling empty space when you open it. Great job! The website usage is probably going to dramatically drop now until X Kit fixes this should-have-been update abortion

Goes wildly insane over Catherine depicting her love for Heathcliff.
"I cannot express it; but surely you and every body else have a notion that there is, or should be, an existence of yours beyond you. What were the use of my creation if I were entirely contained here? My great miseries in this world have been Heathcliff's miseries, and I watched and felt each from the beginning; my great thought in living is himself. If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be; and, if all else remained, and he were annihilated, the Universe would turn to a mighty stranger. I should not seem a part of it. My love for Linton is like the foliage in the woods. Time will change it, I'm well aware, as winter changes the trees - my love for Heathcliff resembles the eternal rocks beneath - a source of little visual delight, but necessary. Nelly, I am Heathcliff - he's always, always in my mind - not as a pleasure, any more than I am always a pleasure to myself - but, as my own being - so, don't talk of our separation again - it is impracticable; and-"

Καλησπέρα, κατ' αρχάς να σου πω ότι ούτε ψάχνομαι, ούτε μου λείπει κάτι. Δόξα τω Θεώ μια χαρά παιδί είμαι, ανθρώπινα και μόνο σου έστειλα. Απλά, προσπάθησα να σε κάνω add στο Facebook και δεν μπόρεσα. Σου είναι εύκολο να με κάνεις εσύ; Και μην αγχώνεσαι δεν πρόκειται να σε ενοχλήσω. Και αυτά στα λέω γιατί σε α-
