no i do not want to give you my email for 10% off. and furthermore, I don’t think i should have to click a button that says “i’m a dumb bitch” to indicate that. you’re a website that sells blankets and you can’t speak to me like that.

Remember folks, during winter every ten degree temperature drop lowers your tire’s PSI by 1 so it’s very important to go to the gas station and notice that the air thing doesn’t work and then do that five more times at five different gas stations

I like that people enjoy this one. Feels nice sometimes to drop the pretense and let out my genuine wish that everyone achieve some sort of security and ability to appreciate and find joy in their idiosyncracies.

At age 60, four decades into her career, Mexican composer Gabriela Ortiz has arrived. Last year she released Revolución Diamantina, a breathtaking album recorded by the Los Angeles Philharmonic and conductor Gustavo Dudamel. It won Ortiz three Grammys in February.
It's time to listen to the bold music of Gabriela Ortiz
At age 60, the Mexican composer has finally won the recognition she deserves, with new recordings, prestigious residencies and a star conductor championing her music.

I didn't expect much for my birthday. I don't expect much anymore really. I especially didn't expect to find out I had a niece I had no prior knowledge of & that she passed away in January & I unknowingly held her ashes (they were in a bottle) in my hands.... Something else to unpack in therapy.

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.
