“Care about what other people think and you will always be their prisoner.”
— Lao Tzu
something about loving a character and wishing the narrative did too
The EU Courts passed rules saying workplaces can now ban Muslim Women from wearing the Hijaab.
It's both and it's not a good thing.
I’ve always liked quiet people: You never know if they’re dancing in a daydream or if they’re carrying the weight of the world.

Therapist: So what do you feel will make you happy?
Me: Time Travel.
Therapist: What do you mean?
Me: Watching my favorite bands live will make me happy and in order to do that, I need time travel to exist. That is all.
all i know of love
is this ache that lingers in your absence
that lingers when you stay
is this sting when your eyes are on my skin
and everything burns in their wake
everything in me burns
but the lips that i know you’ll never kiss
the hunger that i know you’ll never sate
the feelings that i know you’ll never express
everything in me burns for you
knowing even if you want it too
you’ll never let yourself burn the same
— all i know of love is its ache | wt.

Whatever it is that saves Alex, all I ask is that it not be some last minute science shenanigans from Liz or “savior” healing from Max. I need it to be 100% Michael who saves him. At this point, I don’t care how Michael does it – whether by hand print or some biotech dialysis machine Michael builds to filter the radiation out of Alex’s blood or some other equally ridiculous method.
I JUST NEED IT TO BE MICHAEL WHO SAVES ALEX! MICHAEL NEEDS IT TO BE MICHAEL WHO SAVES ALEX!
