the glorification of your 20s and fear of anything else has got to stop. mainly bc your 20s is quite literally the worst decade of your life the idea that ppl think you peak at 25 has me so sad for them
also when ppl act like 20s is peak sexiness. im 26 so if you presented a 22 year old as the pinnacle of desirability i would morph into a chimpanzee and rip you limb from limb. WHAT am i supposed to do with someone who hasn’t even gone thru the age 23 ego death
i just think it’s incredible how art can touch people and become facets of their identity… human beings’ capacity for empathy and honest, open understanding is astounding to me sometimes
everyone has a movie or a song or a book that they hold in their heart and can say “if i hadn’t experienced this piece of art at this specific point in my life i would not be the person i am today” and it’s just kind of beautiful how someone can create a piece of art that means something to them and share it with the world, and that thing can literally change another persons life… it’s so uniquely human and so. intimate i think
idk if this is because i’m aroace but it baffles me that dating apps exist like who tf came up with this idea?? i mean i go out with a total stranger with the specific purpose of starting a romantic relationship with them?? what the fuck is that? where’s the friendship part? where’s the part where we’ve know eachother for most of our lives? like some people really go “oh hey nice shirt, i know nothing about you but i definitely wanna date you” nah i don’t believe it
