Experience Tumblr like never before
literally anyone: hey what are you thinking about right now
me, at any given moment: i’m not like you. i can’t afford to be reckless. i wasn’t raised by a loving, supportive family like you were. i have centuries of history bearing down on my shoulders. my life is the crown, and yours is politics, and i will not trade one prison for another. i can love you, and want you, and still not want that life. i’m allowed. alright? and it doesn’t make me a liar, it makes me a man with some infinitesimal shred of self-preservation, and you don’t get to come in here and call me a coward for it.
