i just wanna say that even if you have degenerative diseases, life can still get better with age. i don’t know how long i have left and i just seem to keep getting sicker, but im steadier and happier and more secure in myself than ever.

i started my 20s healthy and my 30s deathly ill and i’m much happier now. i wouldn’t even trade health for everything else i’ve gained since.

contrary to the popular misconception, health isn’t everything or even the most important thing. it’s good to have! but you can make a happy life as a sick person, in whatever time you have

Richard Siken continues to kill it on twitter. He just explained why his poetry is so popular in tumblr graphics - “you can take any of my quotes and apply them to any fandom or picture and they will work because they are sad and mopey and full of longing” and then proceeded to demonstrate this. With cat pictures. With lines of his poetry slightly altered to be lol cat speak.

(from his twitter thread here)

People are doing their own versions in response and he is complimenting them.

When I have a conversation I feel like I’m piloting my personal universe between and through a cacophony of multiverses. Someone says something and you can think of three things they could mean by it. You can think of five ways to respond to each meaning, more if you count the combinations of those responses, which are often viable as well. Your every word and the order of those words (As well as their inflection and how you move your body while you say them!) can have enormous effect on your conversation partner’s mood, how they view you as a person, and where they choose to (or even can) go with their own (personal, just-as-complex) conversation flowchart. The conversation lulls and you can think of ten or so relevant things to mention, but would they be interesting or palatable to the other person? Have you talked about these topics before, or too much? Can you choreograph a question that will let you learn something new about this infinitely intricate human being, without being boring or invasive? Can you arrange your desired phrase into something that neatly discloses your meaning and also moves the conversation forward? Is this a spoken conversation? Because if so, you have thirty seconds.

Anyway, I love my friends, and I want to replay the game so I can see all their dialogue options

THAT LITTLE BEAST

That pretty little beast, a poem,
has a mind of its own.
Sometimes I want it to crave apples
but it wants red meat.
Sometimes I want to walk peacefully
on the shore
and it wants to take off all its clothes
and dive in.
Sometimes I want to use small words
and make them important
and it starts shouting the dictionary,
the opportunities. Sometimes I want to sum up and give thanks,
putting things in order and it starts dancing around the room on its four furry legs, laughing
and calling me outrageous.
But sometimes, when I’m thinking about you,
and no doubt smiling,
it sits down quietly, one paw under its chin, and just listens.
