I can’t stand politics. Every time someone at work starts to give their two cents about politics, I immediately start planning how I might go about faking seizure. Where I’d fall dramatically but not actually hit my head. Should my mouth foam or not? Heightening the severity of my seizure to match the political fervor of my colleague, of course.

donna simone johnson: sonnet 116 →
donnasimone:
Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediments. Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove: O no! it is an ever-fixed mark That looks on tempests and is never shaken; It is the star to every wandering bark, Whose worth's unknown,...
