Today someone referred to my group of friends as “guys, girls, and Tim.” That made me really happy.

I’m pro-choice, but…
I’m not a racist, but…
I AM AN ASSHOLE.
I went through my archives to tag all of my music posts and it occurred to me that there are only two photos of me on my tumblr since I started this new one over a year ago (two and a bit if you count that nose shot).
…Still deciding what to do about that.
EDIT: My face popped up a few more times than I originally thought - in things such as facebook profile pics when I’d...

I’d love a gym in my basement. I really enjoyed the stuff I did at the gym last year and the year before, but I forgot to factor in the way it could set off my social anxiety at any moment, ultimately, my downfall.
