Flickring
I'm a systematically disappointing spin-off of the best friend you'll ever have and the worst enemy you'll ever make. I hate the third month of the year, I love Betty White, I fear old age, I'm a decent writer, an okay pianist, a terrible jack-in-the-box of puns and tear jerking one liners, and I can't dance.
I make every error of human reasoning, I don't break promises, I'm not a solipsist, I can't waste time, I'm a hypocrite, & a flirtatious cornucopia of cliche causes and ironic effects. My heart and my head are the same like in shrimp, and I'm begging just begging to get my heart broken by the next Byronic hero that walks by.
Give me a polar bear, and I'll give you my soul-which is nothing but a blissful reminder of why you miss childhood, and a spinning vortex of stinging insecurities and paralyzing self-doubt.

You know why I like philosophy? Because it makes me feel like maybe there are other people who won’t think I’m fucked up.
Why can’t we just live our lives as SINGULAR people, appreciating others for their singularity? Why do we have to have exclusivity based on some fucking social morale? It just destroys the individual. Therefore, what you love..is destroyed. You RUIN what you like by “officially” liking it.
THAT is why we want we can’t have. Because once we get it…it is CHANGED.
“I want to be sure that every moment I’m with you, it’s a choice. I want to always be choosing it. If you can’t always be making that choice for the other person, then the relationship is over. But if you DO make the choice to be with that person despite having sex with someone else, that’s what makes it real. You choose that person as a reflection of their individual singularity.”
“Which do you prefer? Love or sex? Sex. I’m choosing the real thing, not the fictional thing. Any idiot would say ‘Oh I want true love’. If it were possible, who WOULDN’T want that? If it were possible to always be married to a singular individual, ANYONE would want that. But maybe that experience of true love, if it’s grounded on the recognition of singularity, is going to have to involve more of a risk than what we prefer. Jealousy is a severe problem. Perhaps it’s connected to different impulses than just sexual exclusivity.” -M. Deere
