metaphorformetaphor:

We die to each other daily. What we know of other people is only our memory of the moments during which we knew them. And they have changed since then. To pretend that they and we are the same is a useful and convenient social convention which must sometimes be broken. We must also remember that at every meeting we are meeting a stranger.

—T. S. Eliot, from The Cocktail Party (Boulevard Books, 1950)

This is my sixth unpaid internship. I have no time for the bullshit complaints of people who are the same age as me and on their first one. Shut up and get a beer.

thatisntchanel:

the hardest part about breaking up with someone/stopping a friendship is the fact that you don’t really have anyone to talk to anymore and you sort of realize that without them you don’t really text or call someone anymore. your phone is just there. and your phone doesn’t light up anymore, no matter how long you stare at it. it’s just something that really makes me hurt and makes me sad and i wish some things weren’t like this.

magicalnaturetour:

Waitomo Glowworm Caves are a famous tourist attraction because of the large population of fireflies that live in caves. Fireflies, or Arachnocampa luminosa - tiny bioluminescent creatures that produce blue and green light live exclusively in New Zealand.

White people get mad when you wear a band t shirt of a band you don’t listen to, but they’re fine with wearing headdresses from cultures they know and care nothing about.

“Yes, false rape accusations happen. Run the protocol anyway. I’ve heard that perhaps the military has the highest number of ‘em. True or not, RUN THE PROTOCOL ANYWAY. Because in 15 years of investigating rape accusations, I can count those that panned out as false on one hand. Meanwhile, the one time I almost skipped the protocol, the one time I almost didn’t believe a petty officer, because I was naive as an investigator and a young woman, because her commanding officer described her as “a party girl, always late, always out drinking, don’t bother with this one”, she turned out to be the victim of one of the most brutal assaults I’ve ever investigated. She shouldn’t have still been -alive-, let alone up and making the accusation. So let me repeat: five false accounts in fifteen years. And one time I almost failed a woman ‘cause of the bullshit way it’s normal to talk about us. Take your shipmates’ word, and then run the protocol. Every. Single. Time.”
