We may have only spoken once or twice,
on the rarest of occasions.
But you mean a lot to me.
Not romantically.
I just think you’re a cool person,
even if you never hear me say it out loud.

This is a picture of the largest swimming pool ever. It’s over 1000 meters long, and covers almost 20 acres. It’s so big, you can sail on it. It’s in Chile.
Oh, and guess where they built it?
That’s right. Next to the FREAKING OCEAN.
Who’s the idiot who thought of that?
Seriously, whoever came up with the idea of making a 20 acre swimming pool next to the ocean needs to get punched in the face.
Are they blind, or something? Did the not notice that the ocean is right there??
“I WAS A HIPSTER BEFORE IT WAS COOL!”
Fun Fact: The Hipster subculture started in the 1940s as a bunch of young people trying to lead the life of a jazz musician without actually playing jazz music. They smoked weed, were very sarcastic, and overly relaxed about everything, tried to live with as little money as possible, and listened to jazz and bebop.
So all you hipsters out there can put away your baggy sweaters, ironic mustaches, and neon skinny jeans, and crank up the Louis Armstrong, and Ella Fitzgerald.
Crocodile Tears
Two years after her father’s death, eight-year-old Sonia and her mother still haven’t recovered. Sonia has removed herself from the outside world and lives largely in her imagination, with no friends. Her mother has abandoned the task of caring for Sonia, preferring to sulk. Then Sonia discovers the night fish in the lake that her cottage is on. Only, these aren’t fish. They’re people, who have long since been forgotten, and not all of them have good intentions. Desperate to find her father in the vast swarm of fish-people, Sonia pours her soul into the fish, and they begin to pour theirs back into her.
(My story! No touching!)
Please stop asking me why I don’t like Taylor Swift or her music!
1. You cannot be an ally if you ever use “gay” as an insult.
2. “She wears high heels, I wear sneakers.” “She wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts.” Congratu-fucking-lations. Don’t slut-shame. There’s nothing wrong with either of those of those choices.
3. Must you always make the girl who is also interested in your blonde, heterosexual, cisgendered male figure - black hair, brown-eyed and wearing revealing clothing? Stop making your “bad girl” into a stereotype.(a rant by Alyson)
How to Care for an Introvert: Treat them like any other human, because that’s exactly what we are.
I keep seeing this “How to Care for an Introvert” post, and it’s starting to get on my nerves. It’s treating us like we need special attention, or like we’re animals of some sort. It’s like it’s saying that we’re not independent enough to do things on our own. I’m an introvert, and I get along perfectly fine without any sort of special care. In fact, I would be insulted if someone thought I needed extra care.
You know what the difference between introverts and extroverts is? Introverts expend energy while socializing, and and extroverts gain energy from socializing. That’s it. That’s the difference. We all need human company to stay sane. Some just need it more often than others.
So stop it. We’re all humans, we’re all the same species. Saying that introverts need special care is just another thing dividing us. Plus, almost half the population is made up of introverts (Myers-Briggs statistics) and if we gave all of them special care, well, that would be a lot of work, wouldn’t it? So please, stop acting like introverts are so different from extroverts. We’re really not.
