shauna shipman WHEN I CATCH YOU!!! i hate her sm nothing will make me like her 💔💔💔 anyone who is an opp to coach ben is my opp!!! and idc what anyone says she was a terrible friend to jackie but their relationship is interesting in how tragic it is 😞

What’s hilarious but also kinda sad is scrolling through the secret history tag and seeing all the aesthetic moodboards and all that because the literal point of the book was warning against that.

Richard literally said his fatal flaw was ‘a morbid longing for the picturesque at all costs’.

The whole point of the book (well, one of them) is to tell you about the dangers of ignoring things right in front of your eyes and instead only focusing on the ‘picturesque’, on the side that fits with the aesthetic you’ve assigned to certain people, or situations, or books, and not seeing the larger picture.

And this is exactly what people are doing to the book (not that i don’t love the moodboards), focusing on the aesthetic and vibes of it rather than the underlying messages and the events that occur, ignoring the warning signs because they ruin the way you see things.

richard and henry in a nutshell:

richard: *shrugs* yea i like homer, he’s ok

henry: ok??? *slams his book on the table and stands up* OK? I WOULD GET ON MY KNEES AND SUCK THAT MANS DICK IF I COULD. I LOVEEEE HOMER. DONT PLAY W ME, DONT PLAY W ME.

francis: *trying to hold henry back and looking at richard* he’s very passionate about homer.

just checked my airbuds stats and I listened to sailor song 124 times in one day.

I don’t even know how that’s possible.

FUCK!!!!!!! FUCK!!!!!!!!

I swear they put something in challengers that only affects gay people because why does it only have 3.5 stars on IMDb but I’m still regularly thinking about it all these months later

Hey you've read A Little Life right

Could you please let me know in which part abd chaoter this line is from

"I weep because you cannot save people. You can only love them"

I CANNOT FOR THE LIFE OF ME FIND IT.

Also hi :D

so actually I didn’t find the quote in A Little Life, it turns out it’s from a different book by Anaïs Nin called Nearer the Moon: From "A Journal of Love"

The full quote is quite lovely!!
