i need all the bands i liked in high school to stop going on 25th anniversary tours please i don't have this much time to go to shows and also be reminded of my own mortality
having the weird experience where i'm having a sudden intrusive craving for a certain flavor or something, or like a memory of a smell or something that i know i want, but can't quite figure out exactly what it is. what IS this why does it happen
i love it when the clock strikes 10:30 every morning and the usual sites publish their 3 infuriating news stories that will drive all discourse today like zookeepers raising the enclosure's gate and letting the seals get into the day's bucket of chum
don’t mind me just having an existential crisis over devil wears Prada 2 over here

reading reviews of the new Devil Wears Prada movie and already need to call my therapist without having even seen the film lol
