Everyone out here talking about men wearing slutty little glasses and no one is crediting the inventor of this trend, Auron from Final Fantasy X, and frankly I think that’s disgusting

5 days off hate to see me coming
Me standing in light jeans and a black jacket, looking slightly to the right. Next to me is a wall covered in graffiti. Far in the distance is an abandoned hotel.A foggy early morning hike to Grota do Inferno viewpoint. It is a dirt path with wooden railings on both sides that runs along a mountain ridge. Me looking to the left wearing light jeans and a black jacket holding up a peace sign. A coastal landscape with steep cliffs is behind me.A very good black and white cat curled into a loaf outside. Vegetation and mountains in the background.

Dyslexia brings great joy and great pain, but mostly pain. Today I misread an invitation as providing “Lite Brites” and lost my fucking mind when I realized it in fact said “light bites” and there will not be my favorite childhood toy at this function

Same thing, different font. Anonymously making fun of your wife on the internet for the up-votes of strangers is very weird actually!

I stand by these. Impeccable taste from day one, I fear. (expect for maybe Doom & Destiny, I got that because the boy I had a crush on recommended it and you can judge me for that only if you haven't done that too 🫵)
a screenshot of the first five games I purchased on steam. In order first to fifth, they are Undertale, Final Fantasy 7, Doom and Destiny, Stardew Valley and Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove. The first purchase was in October of 2015.
