whenever i see another tiktok girlie talking about how she wishes to have been a fangirl in 2010s i feel like a seasoned veteran overhearing a foolish youngin boasting about wanting to go to war for glory and adventure. you naive little idiot. you know nothing. you understand nothing. you weren’t there in the trenches. i have seen things, terrible things. i cannot plug in my phone charger at night without being plagued by the visions of Him
at the start of every month everyone reblogs some insane poetry that’s like “august has arrived and again I swallow my bones in the burning sun” and every time I’m like damn that makes no sense. but kind of true.
i just think it’s neat that odysseus gets put in a position where he has to kill his child to avoid going to war and he can’t do it and then agamemnon gets put in a position where he has to kill his child to go to war and he does it
well mother what the war did to my legs and to my tongue you should’ve raised a baby girl I should have been a better son if you could coddle the infection they can amputate at once you should’ve been I could have been a better son And when we go don’t blame us we let the fires just bathe us yeah you made us oh so famous we’ll never let you go she said you ain’t no son of mine for what you’ve done they’re gonna find a place for you and just you mind your manners when you go and when you go don’t return to me my love that’s right…
crowley and aziraphale are both the worst guy in your intro to philosophy class but for different reasons
crowley: i’m just saying, given the existence of intelligent humans, can it not be said that we are the creators of our god, and therefore the creators of our selves? if descartes was correct in writing cogito ergo sum, does it not follow that deus ego sum? also, i’m fairly sure we only exist in a worm’s nightmare
aziraphale: this is all very confusing, can’t you just tell me the answer? what do you mean there’s no answer? what do you mean i have to form my own opinions using critical thinking? what do you mean the nature of philosophy necessitates continuous debate and nobody is ever truly right or fully wrong? what the fuck
