hi cutie thanks for asking! it’s going well, I must say, or I’ve just gotten better at coping with misery and whatnot. I have my first full-time job, which is by no means a dream but at least it’s in my general field (museums) and I’m learning a lot. I live alone with two cats, Jupiter and Io, who I am severely allergic to and might be slowly killing me, but I can’t give em up! human relationship wise….. I have some nice friends but no romance and, since my standards and boundaries have gotten better, not even sex! I miss sharing stories here but now I just be using it to escape ya know? how’s it going with you?

kafk-a:

Beauty is not a luxury, rather it is a way of creating possibility in the space of enclosure, a radical act of subsistence, an embrace of our terribleness, a transfiguration of the given. It is a will to adorn, a proclivity for the baroque, and the love of too much.
