saw this post the other day that talked about how so many of us are soooo scared of appearing even momentarily human towards each other these days. like you can’t see me sweat or cry or without makeup or with food stuck in my teeth or laugh loud and ugly. everything must be composed and sanitised and photo ready at all times. it’s like corporate office culture seeping out into our homes and our lives and for what. it’s not cringe to be a real person around other real people
“i watched this movie on netflix called someone great. it’s about this relationship that ends after 8 or 9 years. and it’s this gut punch because it’s this movie about how she has to end this relationship that she didn’t want to end because she’s still in love with the person but they just grew apart. and he’s not a jerk. it’s just sad. it’s just realistic. time passed and now we’re different people. and that is the most devastating thing. i cried watching the movie and for about a week i start waking up from dreams that i’m living out that scenario, that that’s happening to me.”
