The Stock Market Is So Silly Like Girl You Made That Up

Someone today will read Shakespeare’s hamlet and say omg he’s just like me fr. Another person will read moby dick and proclaim Ishmael as an adhd king.

A person grieving for their recently deceased lover reads the iliad and they watch as Achilles rages and rages and god how righteous anger fueld by love is so devastating that it’s ramifications still affect the world several thousand years later.

We might one day settle down and read the epic of gilgamesh and watch as a king has to accept the death of the person he loved the most. One of the very first stories ever written and it was about coping with death, and how to grieve.

We don’t read classics because they’re old, we read them because they remind us that we are never alone. That a character created over 500 years ago struggled with the exact same problems we all still have today. That even a king from centuries past had to deal with death just like me. That’s what makes stories so powerful–they prove to us that we are never truly alone in what we are feeling.

Love to see Mbappe losing to a South American team after he said South American football was not as advanced as European football. <3

Reblog this post to wish a non-binary person a good day!

I will not apologize for the person I will become when The Last of Us comes out

the distress of being in your 20s is such a familiar cliche like teehee aimless boohoo transitions and yet when it’s happening to me ??????? surely no one’s gone through any of this before

Imho the idea of ‘cruelty free’ products or food shouldn’t mean that nothing died to create it, but rather that anything and anyone involved in the creation process hasn’t been exploited or harmed.

Leather is good actually. Veganism isn’t the end all be all to morality and consumption. The issue isn’t that a chicken died for those nuggets, but that while the chicken was alive, it’s life fucking sucked. Vegan chocolate means little if the cocoa that made it was gathered by child slave labor.

Factory farms, abuses of the people who pick the fruit and vegetables we eat, the focus profit and productivity over all else - that’s the fucking issue here. It’s capitalism folks.

My dealer: got some straight gas 🔥😛 this strain is called “the last supper” 😳 you’ll be zonked out of your gourd 💯

Me: yeah whatever. I don’t feel shit. 

5 minutes later: dude I swear one of you will betray me

My buddy Judas pacing: surely it is not I, Lord?
