How am I to know the good side from the bad?
These are similar to a flower I posted before, but the leaves are a different size. Nonetheless, they look pretty neat in UVIVF lighting.
if you’ve never seen the x-files, reblog this post and tell me what you think it’s about based off of what you’ve seen on this website
some personal favorites:
- #local man is desperate for a threesome with hot cop friend and extraterrestrials
- #two detectives mudblock and skeleton work for the illuminati #one of them never sees the actual aliens bc shes always too busy tying her shoes or st
- #gillian anderson is responsible for a lot of girls’ gay or bi awakening #she rolls her eyes at david duchovny who gets excited about aliens
- #hot ginger woman eyerolls through sexual tension and some man with a jawline wants to know if aliens have tiddies
- a hetero couple does the will-they-wont-they trope for 19 seasons and in the background theres bigfoot or something
- murder and scallop have adventures
- Aliens and one of them keeps fucking around
- she babysits him but they’re in love
- Three cops who like to talk on the phone while in bubble baths
- two cops eyefuck also they hunt aliens and government is evil
- She is done with his shit but he is very intense about his shit. They all have a bubble bath and deny it
- this guy called mouldy ((?)) annoys gillian anderson a lot but it’s fine bc they sometimes punch aliens
- Two badly dressed white people never kiss while looking for aliens or something
- Mr and Mrs Goodhair spy on the truth, which is out there
- Alien falls in love with man but their love must stay a secret
- Mumford and Sully have sex while talking about aliens. One of ‘em doesn’t believe in aliens. I think they work together, too
- An FBI agent decides to wear as many pantsuits as possible
- the tall man shows the grumpy lady all the spooky stuff
- muldur and sculls r fucking and there are probably aliens at some point. there also a guy named skinner but he’s not a cool skateboarder he’s a bald guy who’s in a bubble bath??
- so there’s a man with a pointy face who believes in aliens and… maybe other supernatural stuff? and then a lady who a lot of lesbians like who DOESN’T believe in aliens. and I think they’re in love, maybe? and they wear coats?
and last but not least:
You have nothing to fear, if you have nothing to hide.

The Incredible Machine
David M. Seager, 1986
i know there’s like a joke about being a “starving artist” out there and how it won’t make you money but like we really should talk about how there’s a serious economy inaccessibility in art because even with having a relatively “cheap” art (i only need writing utensils), with 5000+ poems, that’s about 1500 hours of hard work which is unpaid. i work in “the real world” in two jobs, at minimum wage, and am a student full-time. i keep writing out of love for it, and the vague and desperate hope somebody one day might discover me and publish me so i can actually make money. plenty of us will never get there, and we’re pretty grateful the internet gives us a place to be heard even without being financially equal. i will probably, realistically, have to stop writing at some point. although it is my breath, it doesn’t put bread on the table. as far as the world is concerned, all of these poems don’t add up to “work” at all.
it’s the hardest thing in the world for a creative person to rip themselves out of their talent in order to survive. it feels like a part of yourself is being torn from you. and we do it. we work at starbucks and smile when you shout about how “these aren’t the normal size names”, we work as waitresses and serve you politely when you whisper to your kids “stay in school”, we stock shelves with food that we will not be able to afford and nod gently when you turn to your husband and hiss “that’s why you don’t get tattoos.”
actors, painters, poets, dancers, musicians. except we can’t be those, not really. and we’re laughed at for that. we all should have known better. artists starve. the occasional one of us is remembered once we die. many of us know that we will fade. we chase our dreams even though someone better - or not even better, just better selling - will erase our trail completely. we jump out of warm beds to pen bad poems, we coat our bodies in writing, we leave the shower to sketch, we sit in achingly early hours just working at it. and that is love. a love that cannot feed us, cannot house us, is just love.
and yet we are laughed at for it.
Palace of Versailles
Anakin and Padmé first met as children on his home planet of Tatooine. Years later their love blossomed and matured. Yet it was am ill-fated love. One that would exist all too briefly and only from across the stars…
