guys i don’t say fuck a lot in real life
i just fucking like saying ‘fuck’ on the internet
all fucking right
i seriously have all the opportunities in the world to do something wonderful and I’ve been so freaking blind to it
why is it that I come to these grand realizations at 12:30 in the morning because I have to go to school in the morning and care about things I don’t care about

introtofeminism:
i didnt mean to become an angry feminist it just sort of happened because i looked out my window and woke the fuck up y’know
student: can i borrow a pencil
teacher: i don't know, CAN you?
student: yes, also colloquial irregularities occur frequently in any language and since you and the rest of our present company understood my intended meaning being particular about the distinctions between "can" and "may" is purely pedantic and arguably pretentious

Jay Gatsby was black: an explanation
pollums:
So let me explain this theory for those of you who haven’t heard it before already.
The Great Gatsby is a story of a man that makes his fortune bootlegging and throws countless magnificent parties all in hopes of attracting the attention of his old flame Daisy.
But it’s really a story about insurmountable class barriers. Daisy will never be with Gatsby, no matter how much she claims...

The oldest person alive was born on April 19, 1897, meaning that April 18th, 1897 was approximately the last time the Earth was inhabited by an entirely different set of people and if you don’t think that’s the realist shit ever then you can get right on outta town.

so one of my friends would not stop complimenting me today and listing all the good things about me (even after I told her I don’t know how to react to compliments because they make me uncomfortable) and she wanted me to list bad things about myself because she didn’t think I could
but I couldn’t tell her “I don’t know how to connect with people emotionally” because then things would have gotten...

if you ever think mythology is boring or serious business or whatever shit
just remember that cerberus, the hell-hound and guard dog of the underworld, comes from the root indo-european word ḱerberos, which evolved into the greek word kerberos, which got changed to cerberus when it went from greek to latin

Unless you first read Gatsby when Scott handed it to you in a Parisian bar in 1925, apologising for the cover when he saw you disapproved.
