my presence is a present
omg you guys what is with this livejournal header. THE BLUE AND THE BROWN, stoppppppp it.
+ I was feeling really down yesterday because my mom has gotten it into her head that all of my social anxiety/depression problems will be solved by praying or doing some deep breathing and like. THAT'S JUST NOT HOW IT WORKS FOR ME. But I had an appointment with my therapist later and we talked about how I'm taking better care of myself (which hahahahaha really just translates into doing basic necessary things for hygiene like, idk, TAKING SHOWERS MORE THAN ONCE A WEEK) and it was sooooo comforting to hear that I have been getting better, that I do have more energy, even though my mom's convinced it's the opposite. But I'm in a good place right now! I love everything!
+ So this is old but I read Divergent. CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE SCENE WHERE FOUR THROWS KNIVES AT TRIS' FACE. AND ALSO HOW HIS NAME IS FOUR. Sometimes I'm hard-pressed to explain why I exactly like this book but the main love interest is a ~lolololol brooding~ boy who GOES BY THE NAME OF FOUR. I think that explains it all right there. Also good: how the book ended with Tris/Four actually together. I was expecting them to separated/Four to be presumed dead to set up love triangle shenanigans in the next book buuuut I guess not??? Which, I DO NOT UNDERSTAND YA LIT'S PREOCCUPATION WITH FUCKING LOVE TRIANGLES. Literally the worst trope. No one looks good coming out of a love triangle.
God I just really appreciate the recent dystopian/post-apocalyptic/disaster trend. I love disaster narratives. This is why I own The Day After Tomorrow. This is why I unironically enjoy The Day After Tomorrow.
(p.s. lollll also we can talk about how whatshisface from Camelot is going to be in the movie adaptation of Cassie Claire's books. Things that actually exist.)
+ Obligatory HARRY POTTER. Tumblr is going to be fucking annoying. And I don't just mean the people who will be hyperbolic about the movie ending--because I probs fall under that category--but something about this series brings out the worst in people. On the other hand, tumblr is great for other things like the resurgence of Harry/Luna (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) o m g. Y'all I fucking hate the word endgame, I hate everyone's fixation on the idea of endgame, but Harry/Luna should've been fucking endgame. Here's this relationship that works, in a way where you don't have to tell your audience that it works AND YET... nothing. Bitter forever blog.
+ SO OVER tumblr's Adam Scott situation but I can't wait until Friends With Kids comes out, mostly because I expect wank over Megan Fox. Mostly I want Megan Fox to make out with everyone so people will cry about it. Ugh Ilh and Michael Bay sucks and I just want her to be in movies that I'm not embarrassed to own.
God, I always sound so ditzy whenever I update. SORRY. I've also been watching a lot of kdramas, but don't worry, I won't bore you with it. Instead, I'll leave you with the most adorable thing you'll see this week:
YOU'RE WELCOME.
