✧ — if you ever decide to age, love, invite me. i'll retire my bones to make you tea and read you poetry.

love is like religion is a trope commonly found in pop songs and other romantic works where religious imagery and terminology are used to talk about love as though it itself were a faith or as though the beloved were a celestial being.

  • unsainted, slipknot — you've killed the saint in me, how dare you martyr me?
  • arkangel, thornhill — are you an angel right now? i need an angel right now, i see red
  • closer, nine inch nails — my whole existence is flawed, you get me closer to god
  • blessed be, spiritbox — i say my blessings all for you, i feel it fade from the inside, i open up to adore you / and if i lose myself, blessed be, i could survive in these chemicals for you. offer me, i have the heart of a coward, so open up my sternum, the only blessing that i know

✧ — a lot of this is out of context but i think that makes it funnier. from the archives of my personal discord channel, # nyc-sewers

post "therapy" session with em, alt title: this meme

  • sooner is better, but better late than never
  • what are the chances of that happening?
  • you can take the credit for that
  • you don't have to "earn" good things like sleep, food, praise, etc. please realize that this is a psychotic way of thinking
  • the way you speak to yourself matters
  • did you eat? did you sleep? did you drink water?
  • break the cycle. you know that poem about the dog with a chain that's just as long as the worn path around the post? THAT IS YOU. YOU ARE THE DOG
  • self-destruction is not inherently part of your narrative. i know you think you know that but i don't think you do. it will not get you closer to god, or yourself, or truth, or love, or peace, or success, or perfection. it keeps you from all of those things.

𝔦. — folie à deuxfall out boy

  • don't feel bad for the suicidal cats, gotta kill themselves nine times before they get right / hell yes, i'm a nervous wreck / hell yes, the drugs just make me reset / knock once for the father, twice for the son, three times for the holy ghost / your eyes are blocking my starlight / i'm the last of my kind, and that's all that should matter to you
  • have you ever wanted to disappear? / i'm stray dog sick / give me a pen, but don't let the doctor in, i want to blow off steam / you know me, i like being all alone, and keeping you all alone / and my ego's in a sling
  • life's just a pace car on death, only less diligent / and when the two collide, it's no coincidence / then came a baby boy with long eyelashes, and daddy said "you've gotta show world the thunder"
  • what a match, i'm half-doomed and you're semi-sweet / so boycott love, detox just to retox / and i'd promise you anything for another shot at life

notes for myself to improve my study habits

  • keep pting regularly to build stamina. if you have extra time and are overwhelmed, take a ~45 second break to just relax before checking your answers.
  • blind-review practice tests. mark all questions you are unsure on, before you see your score, answer these again untimed, then compare.
  • for hard rc passages, repeat back to yourself in simpler words. replace confusing technical terms with easier ones, e.g. it's not necessary to remember the species name, just that it's a fish.
  • don't overthink the easy questions, save time for the harder ones. finish the first 10 in 10
  • for lr, evaluate the author's argument, for rc, smile and nod boys. it's a waste of mental bandwidth to crit the author whe...
