OK I guess I'm here for a while. I have no specific theme. Just things that grab my interest. My posts will be SFW but my follows might not be. Explore that list at your peril.

Wish I could internalize this
brightwanderer I think a lot about how we as a culture have turned "forever" into the only acceptable definition of success. Like... if you open a coffee shop and run it for a while and it makes you happy but then stuff gets too expensive and stressful and you want to do something else so you close it, it's a "failed" business. If you write a book or two, then decide that you don't actually want to keep doing that, you're a "failed" writer. If you marry someone, and that marriage is good for a while, and then stops working and you get divorced, it's a "failed" marriage. The only acceptable "win condition" is "you keep doing that thing forever". A friendship that lasts for a few years but then its time is done and you move on is considered less valuable or not a "real" friendship. A hobby that you do for a while and then are done with is a "phase" - or, alternatively, a "pity" that you don't do that thing any more. A fandom is "dying" because people have had a lot of fun with it but are now moving on to other things. I just think that something can be good, and also end, and that thing was still good. And it's okay to be sad that it ended, too. But the idea that anything that ends is automatically less than this hypothetical eternal state of success... I don't think that's doing us any good at all.

Oh to live in a time again when absurd jokes are funny cause they are absurd and not because they are just a statement of an absurd reality.

Every single time I have the opportunity. The night sky has always called to me.

This in particular is very refreshing:
"Sometimes, when we try something new, it won't work out. That's okay, and we're more than willing to be wrong if it means we can learn from it."
I have a huge amount of respect for this statement.
