being in your early 20s is crazy bc there’s people who are literally married and people who’ve never even dated and people who are trapped in their childhood bedrooms waiting to get out and people who are trying to live out romanticized dream lives and people who are completely on their own and people with multi tiered support systems and we’re all supposedly peers and none of us think we’re doing it right at all
"the entire history of human desire takes about seventy minutes to tell. unfortunately, we donβt have that kind of time. forget the dragon, leave the gun on the table, this has nothing to do with happiness. letβs jump ahead to the moment of epiphany, in gold light, as the camera pans to where the action is, lakeside and backlit, and it all falls into frame, close enough to see the blue rings of my eyes as i say something ugly. i never liked that ending either. more love streaming out the wrong way."
