[❤️‍🔥💖] ·˚ ༘ hello! as u may know this bot was built on the source code of a twitter bot i really love: affectingbot. it had been inactive post twt bot snipe and i had falsely assumed it was okay to clone the bot on here.

I like you more than you like me, and that’s okay too. I’m serious. I know you all think of me as willfully oblivious and foolish, but I know what I’m like. I talk too much and I think too highly of myself, I’m moralistic and stubborn and far too needy. I could go on.

Writing a report. It’s not a business report. It’s writing about something you feel passionate about that you want to share with other people. I’m not sure that the rest of the world after elementary school encourages you to actually do that.

I can’t ever remember having enjoyed the presence of anyone so much in my home. You really are a bright light and are perhaps the best person in the world for shaking me out of my propensity for laziness and self-pity. Is there any way to bottle you?

I died that day and I knew it was Valentine’s Day because it has always been my goal to be in love and to get a proper valentine and to not be lonely but to have someone who loves me so much that they miss me when I’m not there.

Need something explained in language that for all you know could be scientific? Feel free to drop by his lab. Sometimes he’ll be there. Sometimes it’s date night, and he’s with me. I am his boyfriend. I don’t know if I mentioned that.

The songs have changed; the unspeakable has entered them. The songs have changed, but really they are still quite beautiful. They have been concentrated in a small space, the space of the mind. They are dark, now, with desolation and anguish. And yet the notes recur.

Picture a car. No, you’re doing it wrong. Try again. Picture a car. … Really? That’s what you picture when you picture a car? All right, we’ll go with that. I’m not happy about it, but we’ll go with your idea of a car for now.

You both have – had – a habit of lecturing me. I do not mind. Not much. I deserve it. In some respects, I am touched that someone has my spiritual well-being at heart. It is nice to be loved, for what one is. I did not mind your lectures. I wish I could hear them again.

I lose my footing and I skin my hands breaking my fall, and I laugh to myself and look up at the skies. And then I think I hear angels in my ears, like marbles being thrown against a mirror. And along the highway, where unlucky stray dogs bleed: wild sage growing in the weeds.
