@Electrarythm Can you reach the sky by passing through a cave?

[ArdiG @ardinghellinho]

@samhaselby That critique still has a point if one considers microhistory as a genre: lots of works ignore Ginsburg's point that the individual should reveal the universal, and chose to emphasise the arbitrary, the aleatory, the totally contingent nature of their object of investigation

[ArdiG @ardinghellinho]

It's even more fun if the person who wronged you was yourself

[Amanda Killian @eroscestlavie_x]

by the time you hit your early 30s you’ll have met basically the worst people alive multiple times over who wrong you in shocking, cosmically horrific ways and you usually just have to find a way to forgive them and move on / accept the lack of closure or your spirit suffers

[ArdiG @ardinghellinho]

I used to think like that as well before I fell into the shadow side of life. But it's not all bad, I walk vast caverns and hear the drip-drip of stalactites

[☾ @ranjishheesahi]

in ur late 20s u have to learn to be delusionally optimistic and romanticize the fact that we only have days, hours - minutes possibly - remaining on this planet

[Bird @vogelbrah]

Please be more dramatic. I’ve had it with commercialized stoicism.

A new term for the old internet:

The Warren: “a network of interconnecting rabbit burrows”

The scene in Demonlover where the guy is naked and writhing like a slug or pig on Connie Nielsen, with the shot lingering on his square butt ...

Everybody needs to get a grip on themselves, it's really not that deep

@marygaitspill sounds autistic to me

[ArdiG @ardinghellinho]

bro wtf

[ArdiG @ardinghellinho]

Being in love with a lost lover feels like having spiky chestnuts lodged in your armpits. How do you release them? You have to hug someone else.

@kaliyugacowgirl Penelope and Argos

[ArdiG @ardinghellinho]

@notsaraferdowsi Ask yourself this: If you are convinced of the latter (incapable of being loved at this specific time), what is it that draws you towards going on dates?

Worrying signs that the 2000s-Cosmopolitan blowjob super-cycle is nearing its end

[morbidly obeast @STRONG_PlSS]

You know how lotion is a meme in tv/movies about jacking off? That's what blowjobs are to sex. No one actually does that

I picture the salty waves washing over the now blank outlines of his struggle.
How many centuries, I ask, until the last specks of blood are scrubbed off the slates?

They say three days the hero struggled in the waves.

[ArdiG @ardinghellinho]

Sometimes in quiet nights
there comes to mind
Odysseus' skin
still stuck to the rocks.

Or have pelicans and crabs
nagged and nabbed
the imprints of his hands?
