This always gets me: “The most valuable of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do, when it has to be done, whether you like it or not.” - Aldous Huxley

Never feel like you gotta pick a side with me because I’m getting rid of everyone involved.

"fuck it we ball" I say as I almost vomit from anxiety

“People know exactly what they’re doing” Until it’s you. Then suddenly, your intentions matter. Everyone wants grace for themselves, but rarely wants to extend it to others.

You’ll never convince me that people catching themselves in unsavoury thoughts or feelings and self-regulating out of them is a bad thing for humanity. We need more of that actually. More of people who admit they’re capable of evil (and work through it) than those who think they’re permanently good.

when i get anxious for no reason i know it’s because my parallel in another dimension is engaging in a skirmish of some sort. i channel my energy in these moments to give him the fortitude to be victorious

Mary Magdalene was labeled a prostitute in 591 CE by Pope Gregory - not by the Bible. The Gospel of Mary was banned, buried, and lost for over 1,500 years. Mary Magdalene financially backed Jesus's ministry. Jesus repeatedly trusted her with spiritual authority the male disciples struggled to understand. Peter openly resented her in early Christian texts. The Gospel of Mary teaches that liberation comes from within- not from external authority. She was the first witness to the risen Christ. "Apostle to the Apostles." Her teachings centered inner knowing. Direct connection. The divine within. Early Christianity was deeply divided. Peter's church: hierarchy, obedience, control. Magdalene traditions: gnosis, equality, mysticism. She was never fully erased. From ancient France to modern Magdalene movements she keeps returning. So does the truth.

If you say “AI” he just wastes water LMAO

A left-handed person dating a right-handed person is peak romance, actually. You get to hold hands and still wield your swords properly while fighting side by side against your enemies.

Last Days of May by Nell Brinkley, 1920

So, I took multiple classes on Moby-Dick as an undergrad & one of the first things you learn is that Ishmael is NOT his name; it’s an allusion to Ishmael from the Book of Genesis (the exiled son of Abraham, of whom it was prophesied, “His hand shall be against every man, and every man’s hand against him”). The narrator imagines himself an outcast, rejected by society & forced to seek his destiny on the high seas. His self-understanding is beautifully transformed during the scene in which he shares a bed with the cannibal harpooner Queequeg, who becomes his bosom friend. As his heart softens, he writes, “I felt a melting in me. No more my splintered heart and maddened hand were turned against the wolfish world.” Love has come to redeem him. He is Ishmael no more.
