I try to be appreciative of what I have instead of bitter about what I’ve lost.

A hug is like a strangle you haven't finished yet.
doors years two
Then I yelled through his door, "It's an anniversary gift for you, asshole. Two whole weeks early. FIFTEEN YEARS IS BIG METAL CHICKENS.

Some people we define as trolls are just critics. Sometimes they have a point. And I hear them. But for the ones who comment "I want to kill you in your sleep," I respond to them too.

facts internet realizing
I very much own the fact that I'm a misfit. The Internet makes everyone realize they're screwed up.
