how do i even explain Everywhere Everything All At Once? It’s got multiverse shenanigans, sapphics, kung fu, generational trauma, taxes, rocks, romance, sausages, immigration, laundry, ADHD, nihilism, absurdism, bagels, yin yang, existential crisis, the fear of being a failure and all your choices being wrong, coming out, acceptance, choosing love and kindness despite the coldness of the universe and it’s lack of meaning, dildos, butt plugs, milfs being badasses, girlbosses, malewives, scifi, depression, passive metaphors for suicide, mother issues, ratatouille, confetti, the IRS coming for your ass, James Hong

description under the cut
digital illustration of siobhan from sucession. she's a white woman with a short stylized orange bob, minimal makeup and a bemused expression. she is turned 3/4 to the right, her face fully in profile, wearing a navy turtleneck with an open back and holding a glass with a gold liquid splashing inside. the background is a gold with graphic shapes in a dusty turquoise and dark grey, with leaf designs around her head. her face, back and hands are way more rendered in a painterly style then the dress, hair and background, which are less textured solid colors.
some of my favorite tiny love stories
“Do you realize that all great literature is all about what a bummer it is to be a human being? Isn’t it such a relief to have somebody say that?”
— Kurt Vonnegut, A Man Without a Country
“I want you to do this with me for one month. One month. Write 10 observations a week and by the end of four weeks, you will have an answer. Because when someone writes about the rustic gutter and the water pouring through it onto the muddy grass, the real pours into the room. And it’s thrilling. We’re all enlivened by it. We don’t have to find more than the rustic gutter and the muddy grass and the pouring cold water.”
— Marie Howe, Boston University’s 2016 Theopoetics Conference (via mothersofmyheart)
“I’ve seen a lot of beautiful things with a heavy heart.”
— Albert Camus
“I’ll have it. You have to give it to me. It’s gotta go somewhere.”
Fleabag | 2.04
“These are the days that must happen to you.”
— Walt Whitman (via perfectquote)
— Elena Ferrante, from “The Days of Abandonment.”
