Was just at the beach and there was about four dead fish (big fish probably 10lbs)
then a few fresh skeletons on the sand.

Maybe this is a very stupid question but is there a reason for all the dead fish? Again I know nothing about fish or anything so this could be incredibly simple and I’d have no clue.

(I’m new to sharing, and open for criticism and suggestions)

I walk through the large wooden door
Leading into my house. A beautiful house that would make
Even the wealthiest of the small people in this town
Gasp in the most ravenous feeling of pure Need.
The walls are littered with gold-plated picture frames
And the most beautiful of wallpapers, the floors
Are old hardwood, something that's been walked over
By only the best. The dining room is filled with only the best china
And the most beautiful cloth and silver. A beautiful bouquet of roses
Placed perfectly in the middle of the long table. And the family room…
A big couch, made from the finest fabrics, and pillows filled with 
 the Softest feathers one could own. But with that comes the 
Uncomfortably silent nights, where it's only the moon and I 
Together. Sitting in the family room feels like a cruel joke 
And the roses are wilting in the dining room.
And I sit there longing for more, so I buy a new string of pearls
Then a pair of sparkling sapphire earrings. And maybe I'll invest in a boat
I'll befriend the water and the wind and the fish around me…
But it'll never be enough. For I was already friends with the wind and the water 
And the fish are too busy to even take a second glance at the bait.
So I sit in the family room, contemplating where I had gone wrong,
Was it the gold, the cloth? Maybe it was the silver that's done it
Anything to show it is not I who caused such longing in my own heart
But I take a breath and I recount my steps
And realize I never said a thank you or exchanged a word with my florist 
Or even the store clerk. And in that moment 
Alone in a house that does not feel like home
I realize it was I who filled in the missing pieces
With gold and silver, with flowers and feathers 
I signed my life away with every signature on every bill I ever paid.

I binge, fast, purge. I’ve been doing this since I was 13, I’m 19 now. No tooth damage, or organ damage that I’m aware of, my teeth hurt all the time, I get pains in my chest like cramping. Ive lost weight Ive gained it back, lost and gained lost and gain. I’m currently gained back almost 20lbs and gained back 35 in the last two years, while binging and puking, I feel fake, I’m at a high weight, I’m gross and I know so dont make me feel worse please I know it’s bad. I made it down to my LW 205lb now at 225, my highest was 240. I’m disgusting and I feel fake I’m at a high weight and I still eat without worry because I know I’m going to purge or fast after. When I’m in public I’m embarrassed and in a shitty mood because I know I’m disgusting and fat. I clean my bathroom a lot with bleach because I throw up in my shower and sink, I’m a slight germaphobe and won’t purge in the toilet. I’ll even purge outside if I have too. I don’t know what to say or do I just feel fake. Larper.

Hi, I’m 19f, I was first introduced to the phantom when I was probably 5-6 years old, my dad and I used to watch the movie (04) all the time, it was my favourite, I still love the movie immensely, especially as a child growing up with the same features as Emmy, brunette curly hair, pale complexion, it was important to me since I was the only girl in my grade with hair like that. I know a lot of people seem to be opinionated about the movie (which I can understand after reading the original novel), but I also did enjoy Gerard butlers voice in it (again I know some ppl didn’t like it.). I’ve read the OG Novel twice now, and my parents were into the musical, seeing it in Toronto at the time. What else should I read or watch to fully understand Erik as a person, the movie doesn’t do him justice (again I do love him in 04), but I find him incredibly interesting and I want to put him in my pocket. How should I go about learning more and understanding who he is as a human, as a man, however you’d like to put it. (Apologies for my wording, I have trouble explaining my thoughts out loud sometimes)

I live across from this big amazing empty parking lot, but it’s rough pavement and I also live next to a river and a messy trail. I want to rough skate, like fast and dirty. I love my current skates but they’re more for smooth pavement and rinks. I want to be rough and fast and do tricks and shit. So what skates should I invest in?
