"I cannot stand small talk, because I feel like there’s an elephant standing in the room shitting all over everything and nobody is saying anything. I’m just dying to say, “Hey, do you ever feel like jumping off a bridge?” or “Do you feel an emptiness inside your chest at night that is going to swallow you?” But you can’t say that at a cocktail party."

— Paul Gilmartin, The Mental Illness Happy Hour  (via a-sensible-heart)

Helpful if you know an introvert.

(The piece is actually billed as “An Introvert’s Guide to Surviving the Holidays” but I would think most introverts have already identified ways to cope—what we need is for others to allow us to do so and stop asking “What’s wrong?” or insisting we should “Go out and have fun!”)

Handbuilt cabin in Washington State.
Writes owner Bryan Graham:

Built in 1978 over a nine month period without power tools while living in a tent next to the site. About a week after moving into the cabin, during the night a large alder fell through the middle of the tent. This was home for several years.

Mauerbauertraurigkeit

mirroir:

n. the inexplicable urge to push people away, even close friends who you really like—as if all your social tastebuds suddenly went numb, leaving you unable to distinguish cheap politeness from the taste of genuine affection, unable to recognize its rich and ambiguous flavors, its long and delicate maturation, or the simple fact that each tasting is double-blind.

"

I loathe when people think that I’m shy rather than introverted. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with being shy, I’m just not, and they are two separate things. People cajoling me into social situations try to assure me that I “don’t have to talk to everyone” or that “everyone will love me.”


Bitch, of course they will like me. I am delightful. I just find prolonged social interactions to be extremely exhausting.
