Nobody Is Irrelevant. Nobody Is Invisible. Your Neighbors Know Your Name And See You Set Off To School

🌸🌸🌸

nobody is irrelevant. nobody is invisible. your neighbors know your name and see you set off to school or work or the backyard everyday, sometimes with a spring in your step and sometimes with hunched over shoulders. there was this one time some stranger pointed you out to their friends and said “that’s the haircut I want” or “I have that shirt, too” or “they go to my school”. someone has admired the way you carry yourself or gave a presentation or even the way you’re so polite when you first meet a person. you’ve made comments or jokes that have stuck in minds of overhearers and eavesdroppers. when old classmates of yours think back to kindergarten or fourth grade or sophomore year they remember you and have an opinion of you. you’ve made recommendations of songs and restaurants and even cookie brands and actually introduced people to their all-time favorites. the cashier at the grocery store knows exactly what laundry detergent your household uses, or even if you don’t do your laundry at all.

you can never be irrelevant. there’s pieces of you everywhere, in a dozen lives, in a hundred dreams, in a million memories. maybe it’s true that you don’t have any friends, and you have a sucky relationship with your family or no family at all and no-one ever checks up on you, and you’re really very lonely, but that doesn’t determine your worth. you do. and so do the billions of small attributions you’ve already made to the world, both long-term and short-term. so thank you.

OMG YES

in museums with painted cielings they should put a few lying down spots so you can watch it for a while tbh

So I found this cool website for learning ancient languages

go wild

Attention please

Studyblrs and academics: If you’re keeping up with Turkish news or have Turkish mutuals posting about some issues, you may have seen the hashtag #AşağıBakmayacağız (we won’t look down) trending. 

Right now, many students and protesters are being subjected to police brutality and injustice due to the recent events happening in one of Turkey’s most prestigious colleges, Boğazici University. 

The only thing they want to is the decision to vote for their own warden. They don’t want any political influence in their university. We, as international students around the globe should also agree on this because academic buildings should be a free place where you can think about what you want. Freedom. 

I’ve seen images and been told that students feel uncomfortable because on the roofs of buildings around the university, there has been snipers. They feel threatened. 

This isn’t how you should treat your youth. This isn’t how you should treat anyone. They just ask for simple democracy rights. Calling them out for ‘terrorists’ or people who want to ‘ruin’ the country. It’s so dangerous to call your own future, own youth words like that. 

It’s time to reblog this important post about what is going on in Turkey. I’ve been posting about it many, many times but I don’t get enough attention of both communities I’m in and I really want you all to share it and pay attention for our fellow Turkish students.

not to be horny, but imagine sharing our spotify profiles and being able to know what type of music our mutuals like or what are they listening to, what are they feeling.
