goleyaas:

i’m obv not old enough or experienced enough to write grand manifesto about Love in Age of Capitalism, but i trust myself enough now and the different realizations i’ve made over past years, how each is a departure from the previous. you know how this is a culture wherein girls are validated through romance. like “romance as endpoint/telos”. i’m actually so bored to death of this. i don’t want anyone to say to me, everything i do i do it for you (bryan adams). that would depress the hell out of me. i don’t ever want to restrict anyone that way. i don’t ever want to do everything i do, everything i’m passionate about, for someone else’s love. why is western culture so exhaustive, why does it bind us down in finitude. “love as totalizing” narrative is too heavily marketed, and also poorly executed in modern western culture


no wonder fiction by woc is ignored most of the time; they don’t want general teengirl population to realize there’s more to this life than Conventional Romance

"The useless days will add up to something. The shitty waitressing jobs. The hours writing in your journal. The long meandering walks. The hours reading poetry and story collections and novels and dead people’s diaries and wondering about sex and God and whether you should shave under your arms or not. These things are your becoming."
