My mother bought me some books recently and I asked if they were required reading and she said “No, for pleasure??? I thought you MIGHT enjoy them because I did when I was your age.” (She was mad at me, what specifically she said isn’t hugely important.)
Pleasure?
PLEASURE?
I don’t even have a concept of reading just to read, just to enjoy what you’re reading, Lord, reading just to learn? The only think I have a ‘concept’ of is reading because I HAVE to get it done, because it’s REQUIRED, because whatever. I hate this stupid school year. I hate this stupid year.
I wish friends had stars bars like in cattails. And wikis. What do you like, what do you hate? I love you. Do you love me too? Do you hate me? I miss you. I miss you all. I’m missing the ones I still talk to, just thinking about the day we’ll part. I can’t imagine not talking to you for the rest of my life, even if it’s not often. Even if we’re just catching up at the end of the week. ‘For a season or a reason’, but, I can’t do that. I care too much. You’re all so great. You’ve all taught me something. You’ve all seen me grow.
I’ve known you since I was 10. You’ve known me longer than any other friend. I have never had a friend I kept longer. Since September 2022. I remember our first conversations. I don’t remember our last. I don’t remember our last long one, either. I love you. I was so annoying. Lord. Why’d you put up with me? I was weird, really just plain odd, was rude to you, rude to your friends, rude to… everyone. You were a better representation of my religion and you aren’t even a part of it. Did I lead you astray? I was so horrible back then. I wouldn’t be surprised. I wish you weren’t so old. I wish you didn’t have to stop talking to me. I wish you didn’t want to.
being sleep-deprived and watching a nuggets game with your even more sleep-deprived mother, highlights:
"he was trying to be like caitlin clark! they need caitlin clark, anyway, she's better than fuzzy boy"
"let this be a lesson to you, when you bring someone home, he needs to be like christian braun, not like fuzzy boy"
"yeah, that was an offensive foul!" "no it wasn't!" "he changed his pivot foot, too, look!" "no he didn't!" "yeah, look at him, he's just skipping down the court!" "no he's not!" "look at that, he's just skipping down and then does a little elon musk jump at the end" "WHAT NO HE DIDNT....."
"you think you're so big,,,,,,,,,, because you're so big,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"
"i heard he's dating ilhan omar" "WHAT" "yeah, he wanted to date taylor swift, but the other guy was already dating her, so, he had to date ilhan omar" "WHAT" "listen, this is just the gossip going around the locker rooms, i don't-" "HE'S MARRIED AND HAS TWO CHILDREN" "to ilhan omar!"
just realized i forgot one help,,,,,
"he's a three-time mvp, by the way" "of what?" "what do you think?" "i don't know" "playing basketball!" "his own team?" "the whole league!" "the whole league?!"
okay so i can’t get a good screenshot so basically! the twitter beef in a nutshell || scottie pippen (nba player from the 90s): How many championships would we have won with Elon Musk? 
insert ai-generated image of elon musk in a chicago bulls jersey || austin (one of my mutuals): Zero. His bum ass would do nothing on the court, sit on the bench tweeting, and being so annoying and toxic that you and Jordan take your talents to serious franchises || annoying queerphobic rando (we will refer to him as aqr for shorthand): Of course you have pronouns in your bio lol I literally looked just to verify it to be true and had a good laugh. You gays are so weird. Don’t ever say you’re just like the rest of us aside from your attractions. You have all proved that’s so far from true. || me: gender and sexuality are not the same thing insert the more you know gif here || aqr: Another low iq weirdo posting nonsense. Wonderful. || austin: If gender and sexuality are the same thing, are all men gay or all women gay? || aqr: Another moron chimes in. Where did I say they were the same thing? Oh that’s right I didn’t. You are all so dense and know you can’t argue for your beliefs so it’s always the same game. Just make up a quote from thin air and try to argue that. Typical low iq shit || me: buddy you said he was gay because he had pronouns in his bio || aqr: If you have pronouns in your bio or announce them in any way you are absolutely gay. The monkey pox got to your brain or something?(+)
(-)How do you equate that to being the same thing as gender and sexuality being different? || me: so, let me get this straight. you say that gender and sexuality are not in fact the same thing, which is true, but you say that having pronouns in your bio, which are linked to gender, means your sexuality is gay? || aqr: Pronouns are linked to gender. Announcing your pronouns as if you are so special you get to select any of your choice is something only a true homo could think was anything but [r slur!], and yes also gay. || me: blocked you don’t deserve my time and effort
basically he said something stupid, i pointed it out, he said something even more stupid, i pointed it out, he didnt know what to do so kept restating his stupidity, i kept pointing out how stupid it was, he got mad and called me the r slur, so i blocked him
twitter is a lovely place because elon musk doesn’t do crap about idiots like this running rampant
