I had to answer a security question over the phone today and it was honestly surreal the guy asked me “okay, what’s your dream car” and for a solid ten seconds I’m thinking ‘what the fuck I can’t even drive?’ and then it hits me. I made this account in 2014. I know what I have to say. I swallow my pride and whisper into the phone:

“1967 Chevy Impala.”

There’s silence. Then, he gives me my password. Fuck you, 2014 me. Fuck. You.

I just felt the shadow of something ancient and awful brush past, like a great leviathan peeking from the waves on a moonless night far from shore.

This is by far the most haunting addition to any one of my text posts. I won’t sleep tonight.

the signs as falling in love with

zodiacsociety:

your best friend: gemini, cancer, virgo, libra // full of shy kisses, calls at 3am, late afternoon sunlight coating bodies. comforting in a familiar sense of warmth and affection. they are the scent of home. take their hand.

your rival: aries, taurus, scorpio, pisces // filled with smirks, sarcasm and initial frustration. hugs that lift you off of your feet and fiery eyes that you are so familiar with glaring into but now you’re driven insane by them. your lips never leave their skin. tempt them.

a stranger: leo, sagittarius, capricorn, aquarius // breathless, they are unexpected, sudden desire filling your veins with gasoline. at their gaze you’re in flames. dandelion wishes are to see them again. give them a reason to stay.

Iconic seafarer beards became a trend to scare away pesky mermaids.

Mermaid, seeing a bald pirate: Zero threat…!
Mermaid, seeing a hairy, bearded pirate: If I get too close their face tentacles will eat me…!

Most mermaids only grow short beards as not to scare baby mermaids (longer beards look like the tentacled mouths of hungry squids and octopuses).

Pirates use this innate fear to their advantage to protect themselves from mermaids, hence the iconic beards and hat:
