May your life some day be as awesome as you pretend it is on facebook


Dedicating this one to J. Jack Halberstams "The Queer Art of Failure" and the politics of failing to be successful in a society where success is defined by heteronormative capitalism. Social media is turnings us into self-marketing little robots with smiles firmly planted on our faces... As human beings one day we might evolve towards realness, instead of flaunting successes and hiding failures, but capitalism sure is taking us in the opposite direction...
 "People shouldn't have to always appear stable and content because people aren't always stable and content and it makes us harder and as a majority more unstable and more discontent, cuz we feel more alone and don't have the freedom to express the darker sides of our emotions, cuz we're supposed to keep everything friendly, polite and appropriate, but I think that every emotion is appropriate" - Fiona Apple
