“I wouldn’t say I ‘want’ much of anything, but I am waiting for something. Waiting for what? Any why? You could wait forever- nothing’d ever come of it.

hate it when people say you shouldn’t engage in an artistic endeavour because it doesn’t make any money. so?? humans are meant to create. art should exist for art’s sake! people can make money to fund their art in particular even if there’s no meaningful monetary return. because it exists and someone made it and poured time into it. that’s so valuable and human
let’s say that being hot as a form of empowerment for all women could even be a thing. let’s say it’s possible to look hot for yourself and not for men. where did your idea of hotness come from? why is it important to you to look hot? who decides what’s hot? why must you change something about yourself or cover something about yourself to get hot? what makes you not hot at your most unmanicured state? why? how did you know what to do to get hot? do the people around you view hotness in the same way?

Dear person reading this,
I am a little drunk and have too much love to give, so take some. Has anyone told you that you are divine? Your eyes sparkle so beautifully when you talk about that thing you love. Your body is your vessel, even with the flaws you see in it. You have purpose, every smile passing your lips does. And I support you. Take my love tonight, you deserve the kindness.
