“Breathe. You’re going to be okay. Breathe and remember that you’ve been in this place before. You’ve been this uncomfortable and anxious and scared, and you’ve survived. Breathe and know that you can survive this too. These feelings can’t break you. They’re painful and debilitating, but you can sit with them and eventually, they will pass. Maybe not immediately, but sometime soon, they are going to fade and when they do, you’ll look back at this moment and laugh for having doubted your resilience. I know it feels unbearable right now, but keep breathing, again and again. This will pass. I promise it will pass.”

- Daniell Koepke (via perfect)

“Everything we think of as great has come to us from neurotics. It is they and they alone who found religions and create great works of art. The world will never realise how much it owes to them, and what they have suffered in order to bestow their gifts on it. We enjoy fine music, beautiful pictures, a thousand exquisite things, but we do not know what they cost those who wrought them in insomnia, tears, spasmodic laughter, urticaria, asthma, epilepsy, a terror of death which is worse than any of these”

“I have been some bodies that might not be obvious upon first glance. I have been a thimble. I will be mud. I want to be, one day, the goats—which are, in fields, like stars. When I trust, I want to trust like the peony. Which is to say, when I open I want to open like the peony.”

“All the accusations of “ugly bulldagger” in the world can’t convince me that I’m not still desirable even when I’m telling someone I don’t want them to do something to me, that I’m not worthwhile even when I reserve my right to give consent. In the shape of every crater I leave is the declaration that I have agency, and I am still beautiful.”

here is a thing i wrote!

i want to be super clear! a lot of you do send me cute little flattering messages here on tumblr and they’re great. sometimes they’re even a little more sexual than that and it’s fine, because i blush and it’s cute and it’s all good. HOWEVER to those of you who tell me what you want me to do to “your pussy” and get really fucking graphic, and there’s enough of you - that’s super uncomfortable for me, as i’ve said many times, and being sexualized in that way makes me incredibly uneasy and anxious
