bear my soul to hell

Well, come again to-morrow: fare thee well:
A fiend like thee might bear my soul to hell.

Fucking Apollo, man. No means no! It doesn’t mean chase the chick until she turns into a wood nymph out of desperation!

Minimalist and Modern Loft Interior Design in White Color Theme | DigsDigs

It’s interesting to look at, but I would absolutely hate to live there. Ugh. Spartan is one thing; clinical another entirely.

I just need to put in two cents here, for my own sanity:
This is bullshit.
Pain tells you that you are doing something wrong. That, if you continue, you run the risk of doing yourself serious harm. For instance—you trip and land awkwardly. Your ankle hurts, but you ignore it. Two days later, it still hurts, so you give in and go to the doctor. Turns out, you twisted your ankle and continuing to walk on it just fucked it up even more. Way to go!
But this isn’t about accidents! It’s about intentionally pushing yourself to do better! Okay, fine. Let’s say you’re working out. Awesome, good for you! Being in shape rocks. And in your quest to be fit, you try lifting some weights that are a little heavier than you can comfortably manage. You’re not going to get anywhere if you stay in your comfort zone, after all. Well, by trying to be macho, you end up tearing a muscle. Oops! Sucks to be you! And if you continue to push yourself, even through the pain of your torn muscle, you just make it worse.
But what about emotional pain? Maybe this doesn’t have to do with physical exertion at all, in which case these protests are irrelevant! Based on the exhaustion comment, I find this possibility unlikely, but let’s agree for the sake of argument. What causes emotional pain? Betrayal. Loss. Pick whatever suits you best. In nearly every case, I think you can attribute pain to the desire to hold onto something you can’t have—a relationship, a departed loved one, etc. And if we accept this premise to be true, what do you gain by persisting in your chosen path despite the pain? More pain. You only move on when you let go.
I know it’s not good form to predicate an argument on a few examples, but I feel these are representative of the inherent problems with the assertion that “pain doesn’t tell you when to stop.” Namely, that pain does, actually, tell you when you should stop, and that if you ignore it, you can end up doing yourself even more damage. If any further proof is needed, let’s examine the case of people who can’t feel pain. What happens to them? Well, usually, they die young because they can’t tell when they need medical attention. Imagine if you broke a leg and couldn’t feel pain. You could be walking around on that thing for a while until you notice the bone poking through the skin. Real world example.
So let me reiterate: this is bullshit.

“Hot N Cold” - Katy Perry

You’re hot then you’re cold, you’re yes then you’re no.

This is for you, Tumblr. I love you, but not when you keep eating posts on my dashboard. I hope you get over this. Preferably yesterday.

what is this fuckery, youtube?

Seriously, what’s with the new layout? How is it any better than the old one? I feel so disoriented without boxes to guide me! I like demarcation, dammit!

CHANGE IS THE ENEMEY.
