Lena: *speaking Irish*
Kara: I know, I know.
Alex: You speak Irish?
Kara: No. I just know the phrase, 'this is all your fault' in every language Lena speaks.
I lost my best friend 3 years ago- not lost as in dead but lost as in we only text each other on our birthdays now. Movies and books don't tell you that a friendship dying is like the sinking of a ship, you try to get higher and higher and hold onto the rails and unanswered texts, the captain tries to steer it to safety and salvage pieces of two broken hearts until you're left with memories of what once was. We were friends for a decade and knew each other's diaries by heart, I still remember her phone number and the way she took her coffee. Seeing her in streets is like breathing in a scent you forgot you knew but it immediately takes you back to a summer in '07.
Movies and books also don't tell you that friendships don't just end after one fight or incident, it's like the rusting of a bridge, the slow decay of flesh and bones and secrets. It took weeks, months- until one day I woke up and I realized I hadn't thought of her in a while. And I wrote a poem that day and I titled it 'The dying of a best friend' and I put all my love for her in a tiny box with my half of the matching pendant of a dolphin we had and stored them in a corner of my heart under the heading Grief. Where else can one hide unspent love?
It's been 3 years since I lost my best friend, lost as in I still carry our secrets in a tiny box but we only text each other on our birthdays.

It’s the perfect crime. We give the gays everything they want right up until they just die! X

I’m just over it. I fucking hate the toxicity in the uswnt. I never believed in Vlatko. I know good Coaches when i see one. He isn’t. He couldn’t handle the Olympics. He thinks his little friendlies with teams that barely leave their countries and have 0 money to invest are great to measure his team. He is delusional. He lacks a core team. Most of them are out. I won’t talk smack about any player in that roster but I don’t think it’ll end up being good for the US.
I just wish CP peace of mind and a full recovery. She doesn’t deserve this treatment.
But alas, all futbol federations are little mafias…iykwim. She’s better off.
All I keep saying is that I’m tired of fighting for something we should all be innately fighting for. I am so tired. I can’t process it all right now.
Happy Valentine’s Day!!!❤️❤️❤️
Y'all reblogging it with #LENA in tags and I don't remember on whose blog I saw it first so no sponsorship of today's edit 😉

I am still stunned by how amazing season 2 of Warrior Nun was because honestly it felt like it filled a whole in my heart. I honestly can't remember when was the last time I enjoyed a show so much and especially the writing for a sapphic couple.
The casual intimacy,the pining, the jealousy, the empathy, the kidness, the cute moments, the lack of any heavy drama and conflict between them, the ride or die and I will get through an army for her.
It's just felt beautiful and most importantly it felt uniterupted, like it had time to develop instead of relying on a few over the top moments and being ignored otherwise. It just felt sastifying
That one scene that broke me but then again the entire fic broke me
