Your body no longer feels like your own.

#the wheel of time #wot on prime #wot show spoilers #moiraine damodred #wot edit #wot s2 spoilers #mygifs #mine: wot #you're a cool one #I have a backlog I know #I retract what I said about the gateway opening channeling #this was the bookend to the season opening for her #the contrast between Moiraine curled up in the water #the perfectly still water #her hands moving like slab of stone not belonging to her anymore #her palm breaking the surface with barely a gesture because everything is so narrow now #and Moiraine in the finale lost in this beautiful dance #hands alive #the waves disrupted by her weaves so powerful they break the surface like sea creatures racing underwater #the vastness of the shore #the open air #THIS SHOW

getting hit with the 8pm impulsive thought of becoming a youtuber

#it's so joever for me #you know. I'm the kind of person that suddenly gets hit with the itch of learning a new skill just for the sake of knowledge #and it consumes me until I at least try it once #the world is so vast and beautiful and I must experience it all

Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep - Radiant Garden

#kingdom hearts birth by sleep #khbbs #radiant garden #scenery #my gif #if only i could mod the game just to be able to roam freely with the camera because this world is so vast and beautiful #so many of these rooms are huge and i really wish i could zoom out and view them from a distance to just get a full sense of scope #also imagine my disappointment when we got to see this world remade in kh3 cutscenes but weren't given the opportunity to explore it

Irish poetry is awesome it's either like "God bless the beautiful and proud nation of Ireland and all of her natural beauty and culture", "God bless the beautiful and proud woman I am in love with who is a metaphor for the beautiful and proud nation of Ireland" or "Fucking English bastards ruining everything"

#brieuc.txt #*SpongeBob meme* this is an international vast oversimplification for comedic purposes #irish poetry has a very rich and diverse range and especially modern Irish poetry is unique and beautiful n you should read more irish poets #other than heaney and yates #gaelige

I will never ever not be insane about winter solstice.

The fact that it makes astronomical processes noticeable to humans. The symbolism of the longest night. The cultural significance.

Ancient Ireland used to have passage tombs, built in a way that the light only reached inside a few days in a year. Tonight is the solstice point and two days ago it reached Newgrange, the most famous one.

#just the thought of it staggers me #celestial movements captured by people who had no idea about space or the vastness of it #you can visit newgrange and they even give a demonstration with artificial light #which is nowhere near as powerful as sunlight but the whole burial chamber still glows #I didn't expect much from that trip but I stood in a crowd of people barely fitting in that tiny room and cried from the sheer beauty of it #I can't explain

I feel like there's got to be a hairdresser somewhere on ds9 and they are constantly having the weirdest time anyone's ever had

#maybe except for o'brien he is the weird times king #star trek #star trek ds9 #ds9 #brought to you by my thinking about cardassian men seemingly having one (1) haircut available to them #and spinning out wildly from there #I love thinking about hairdressers in sci-fi universes. not because I am interested in hairdressing in any way (I am not) #but because it's the perfect blend of the magical and the mundane #the stakes may be high and the stark coldness of space between stars vast but somewhere out there in the universe #someone is getting an inadvisable haircut they have to live with for a while. and I think that is beautiful

Good evening, why do you think americans are obsessed with Doctor Zhivago and what do you think of the novel?

I'm being charitable when I say that there are maybe five Russian books that John Liquor American can readily name, and all of them have been made into movies and/or musicals. With Zhivago, part of the reason it became a cultural touchstone so quickly has to do with the circumstances of its publication in the United States during the Cold War, closely followed by the epic David Lean film, in which Omar Sharif is so hot that it hardly matters that the movie itself is mid.

In regards to Zhivago's specific appeal to American sensibilities, I think a lot of it has to do with that adage about how an English language romance begins with a kiss and ends in a wedding, while a Russian language romance will begin with a kiss and end in Siberia. The weddings are fun but after all that stale cake, you want to want, and you want to be left wanting.

My relationship with Doctor Zhivago is that it's fundamental to my understanding of human dignity and human frailty. It is also a very nice love story.

#raised by atheists who told me pushkin created the world and tolstoy populated it #but pasternak sighed and exhaled all the stars into a vast night sky to make the loneliness sweeter to bear #i find that it's difficult to quantify the breadth and depth of certain kinds of beauty in english #i'm fluent but sometimes i'll be reaching for a sentiment and an angel appears to redirect my hand to a hot coal on which to burn my tongue #hayward translation is fine p&v is fine too but nobody has done much of note with the poetry—i do appreciate the effort #people should keep trying. i certainly will. that's what we do!! #russian literature #boris pasternak #doctor zhivago #assbox #anonymous

i love you lesbians questioning their gender identity. I love you sapphics who encourage their partners to test new pronouns. I love you wlw and sometimes the journey to and beyond “girls” kissing “girls”. I love you those who can not disconnect their experience of femininity and loving women from their identity. even if it means often times it’s hard to understand yourself or hard for others to understand you. i love you.

#mod caden #lesbians #sapphic #wlw #transgender #nonbinary #gender questioning #i love my community oops #and etc #i have a very intimate relationship with my girlhood #and while i know it will evolve i know they are other flowers just as beautiful #much to say there are some beautiful vast spaces that frankly are not mine even though i’m a frequent lover and kisser of ppl dealing with #this #flower as in we have very unique but beautiful dynamics that aren’t always easy and aren’t always tough. love and hate and expression. #there’s afab aro 🤝 wlw girlhood solidarity

Trans women. I'm grabbing you by the shoulders and yelling. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE SKINNY TO BE FEMININE AND PRETTY AND CUTE. PLEASE STOP MAKING DIETS PART OF YOUR TRANSITION GOALS. WEIGHT LOSS IS A SCAM. I LOVE YOU. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELVES. YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL.

#I see so many transfems say they want to have “flat stomachs” or do diet and exercise regimes to try and get an “hourglass figure” #and it really worries me. girls you do not have to destroy yourselves to fit into unachievable beauty standards #the vast majority of cis women don't even fit those standards #and the same goes for you transmascs! I see you! I see you trying to get smaller chests and hurting yourselves with weight loss routines #and excessive workouts. it's not worth it. weight loss has OVER a 90% long-term failure rate and there's a reason for that #I assure you whatever diet you think you've found that “works for you” won't be working so well 5 years from now #and you're going to blame yourself for “slacking off”. but it's not you. it was never you. it was designed to fail. #these standards are made to hurt people and then sell them a false solution at the price of your health #I encourage you to transition if you'd like and live your best life I really do. but please please please do so SAFELY. #if weight loss is part of your transition goals please reevaluate WHY you believe thinness is necessary for achieving femininity #(or masculinity or androgyny but this stuff particularly affects women in the way it's marketed) #do research on fatphobia and the roots of weight loss culture. Learn where these ideas come from and why they're so prevalent. #It's extremely important #take care. stay safe. love you very much #trans #fat liberation #transgender #lgbt #trans rights #fat positivity #diet culture #fatphobia #transfem #trans positivity #transgirl #trans women #trans woman
