only literature students make friends by telling a classmate “i loved your analysis of this obscure book’s title yesterday, really impressive! wanna be friends?”

im so glad my analysis skills didnt completely vanish omg

Update: i just had a class about the history of french orthography and my inner 10 yo child obsessed with The Right Spelling In Every Word is living their absolute best life

(In middeschool i wanted to be a lexicologist lmao my dreams were…….. quite something)

We all got tricked by some 9th century Italian riddle can you imagine???? youre a fucking 9th century italian monk writing a quirky riddle and CENTURIES later college students are STILL pranked by your fucking riddle can you IMAGINE omg i love literature

Also ive decided not to be shy around girls anymore since, yknow, got nothing to lose anymore & i chatted a bit with a really pretty girl who is in several of my classes, cause life goes on, right

girls and books: im literally living The Ultimate Dream i wanted SO BADLY for my WHOLE LIFE this is so awesome

Also…….. s/o to those french monks from the 9th century who started to write (oral) french with the latin alphabet cause lmao it was 100% not adapted since half of the french sounds didnt exist in latin and therefore ended up writing things like “gié” for “je” – yall are the reason the french language is Written Like This

one the one hand, you were linguistic macgyvers and did your best with what you had

one the other hand, you’re hated by generations of french children & non-french speakers learning the language across the world

so ¯_(ツ)_/¯

the whole concept linking being open-minded, liberal, and free-spirited with being sexually available to men and having no sexual boundaries is an absolute tragedy. almost every woman i know has been traumatized or harmed by this ideology in some way, and it is being pushed on girls at increasingly younger ages 

i would also like to point out that the idea that it’s cooler to not be emotionally attached in sexual encounters, not have expectations, etc. and be casual about sex and love is also harmful to women and puts the onus on them to change themselves, to criticize themselves for being loving and feeling things deeply, rather than for men to stop being sex-obsessed and devoid of human emotion

racism isn’t just annoying it is literally traumatizing and a lot of brown and black folk have ptsd from the racism we have experienced. i feel like this isnt taken into account in any racism discussions had by white people and it’s honestly upsetting.
