Need not add a single thing!
This damn thread!
Some people go out and look for a challenge in life.
And some just like to take things easy.
Some like to think , plan ahead and create paths where none exist.
Some like to take every day as it comes.
Some like to fight.
Some seek the thrills.
And some would rather seek some company instead.
Some like to talk.
And some prefer the silence.
Some like to be in the spotlight.
While others prefer the shadows.
Some just want to party.
While for others the party has long ended.
We build.
And we destroy.
We cry.
And we laugh.
And sometimes we do both.
We get angry.
And we calm ourselves.
We make descisions we might regret.
We fight along eachothers sides.
And sometimes we take on the world all on our own.
We take care of others in good times and in bad.
Some will become parents.
And some will find a family in unexpected places
Some want to be part of a team.
And some would rather be alone.
Some like to play.
While some would rather watch.
Life is like a video game.
We all play the same game But while some of us are just starting up their tutorials.
Others are already at the credits.
i’m just gonna leave this here as a reminder that “hitting bottom” doesn’t mean “staying on bottom for the rest of your life and dying as a piece of crap”

I'd like to ask for some help from any intersex followers I have (or any intersex folks who come across this post!)
I've been struggling a lot to find proper terminology for intersex issues in my research because Google is all gunked up and Tumblr is just as hard to parse through.
So, if anyone could point me in the direction of any good literature by intersex authors or any good online resources (especially that define terminology) that would be incredibly helpful!! I'm still doing work myself but any sort of direction would be wonderful!
(tl;dr I want to be a better ally to intersex folks in trans feminist conversations about sex/gender and approach my own theory with intersex experiences in mind better! So, any and all resources would be appreciated!)

Once, long ago, Anael said that humans understand many things, but they do not truly understand war.
Castiel has bled upon thousands of battlefields, because there was not just one battle to force Lucifer back into the cage. Day after day, he would clash blades with the twisted forms of angels and humans which once were whole. And, at the end of those seemingly endless days, he would help carry the broken bodies of their dead to where they would be laid to rest.
(His genocide of the angels, under the name of a new God, did not even come close to the body count of those battles. He would sit among the bodies of thousands, the ashes of their wings left to disintegrate in the vast corners of Hell. And he would feel nothing.)
It is not in the days of peace when brotherhood is formed. Brotherhood is born in fire and blades and blood. Brotherhood is born in loss, in the mutual, terrible decisions one must make.
Castiel fought beside Anael, Uriel, and Balthazar, thousands of years on end. The words they spoke eventually faded from his mind - everything does, especially in times like those. But he remembers those moments clearer than anything, those moments when their fates were tangled.
Anael. The moment when the flames of Hell had risen, burning half of his feathers to crisps. He’d fallen, hard, his armor dented, his eyes unseeing. He was sure he was going to die, until her arms had wrapped around him, and they were together, one, brother and sister under the eyes of all who understand.
(He didn’t see her die. He knows, with her blood on his hands, that he should have.)
He and Uriel, fighting side by side, their blades one. Uriel’s wings had been beautiful. Golden, like the sun. The war had hardened him, just like it hardened everyone.
According to Heaven, the replacement of laughter for pain was a price that must be paid. For the greater good.
(Anael had stabbed Uriel, for him. Uriel had made his choice. Staring down at his body, Castiel had thought that the price that Heaven had asked was much too high.)
Balthazar had thrown himself upon a blade for Castiel. Castiel remembers this, clear as day. The day after Lucifer had been forced back into his cage, Balthazar had left Heaven. And Castiel had let him.
(Castiel’s blade had slid into Balthazar’s back easy as anything. Castiel had felt Balthazar’s Grace slip away, and didn’t think twice about the decision at the time. Now, it’s on a list of regrets which extends for miles, regrets forged in good intentions.)
Humans have war. But it does not last as long, and nowhere near as bitter. Demons and angels, two sides of the same coin, would fight and kill forever, in the name of a greater purpose. Humans cannot understand wars in the ways that angels fight them.
(“We’re expected to kill,” Anael had said. “We’re expected to kill, and then we’re expected to feel nothing.”)
He does not feel nothing.
I can vouch for Washington, and let me tell you, it's either bitch, girl, or sweetie, no in between.

My instant reaction when friend says they’re coming over
I love what I love and respect what I don't. I wish to be there for all and love all. Dum Spiro Spero, Dum Spero Amo, Dum Amo Vivo.
