#lush bath bombs are all the rage #heres how bernie can still win #im reblogging pictures of white girls and not thinking too much about it #i just moved from beijing to california and i found those tumblr-famous floral sheets at ikea for my new bedroom #am i moving on from my psuedo pastel goth phase? #excited to have access to youtube hauls and instagram influencers without circumventing firewalls #this excitement often clouds the political sentience ive been kind of developing

#i try to make the best out of the conservative-ass environment im in by romanticizing parking lot sunsets and trips to home goods #but theres only so much that can do #memes helps me find a little common ground #and ive learned from my family the method of cultural assimilation through pop culture #so my desktops filled with rose-colored and less rose-colored teen movie screenshots #i use them as album covers for my garageband eps #its obvious i have a crush on winona ryder #i briefly consider pursuing film #i watch sitcoms while doing math homework #daria gets me through my first finals season

#despite my penchant for girly things im misanthropic and angsty #wearing mcr tshirts is one way to make some really close friends i still talk to everyday 9 years and 2000 miles later #but its also how you end up pouring all your time into how things look # at school i obsess over guys i hate and tudy hard out of spite towards them #those guys also watch rick and morty like i do #sucks to see the parts of yourself you hate in other people all day #on weekends i ask my mom to take me to michaels so i can buy gildan blanks and iron on transfer paper #i save and print out rococo images and transparent pngs from tumblr #credit be damned #and make my own graphics t-shirts #i suppose indulgence in visual culture is one way to grasp desperately for control
