Me, confused but delighted: oh, Kitty!!
IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ME

In the UK, the minimum wage for someone over 23yrs old is about £10.40 an hour. Generally, a paperback book costs £9. So it's less than one hour's wage for a book :/
oh sure when actors playing a character with DID or otherwise acting as multiple people in one body switch between alters on screen they're "such a talented actor" and you "get chills" but when I, actual diagnosed DID system, switch in front of you, it's "scary and unnerving" and you "no longer know how to talk to me".
I love when people complain about dangerous drivers because... there are some dangerous drivers out there! However, the solution isn't, like, a surveillance state. The solution can be found (in part) in actually investing in free public transportation and a variety of transportation. The fact that we often live in a very hostile world for pedestrians and non-motorists is a travesty, and helps contribute to the mess that is driving.
You don't need to ban certain people from being able to drive. You need to pressure your local and state governments to actually invest in trains, buses, trams, taxis, public bicycles, well-maintained sidewalks and trails, and whatever may be best for your community. Banning certain people from driving isn't going to effectively keep drivers safe.
One of the things noone talks about about growing up as queer in extremely queer-phobic society is how it can damage your ability to connect to people on deeper/emotional level. Because friendships are all fine and dandy, but when you get too close to someone questions of who you like would inevitably come up. We live in cisnormative heteronormative society after all
And kids/teens aren't stupid, they can tell something is off. So whenever difficult questions come up you either have option to lie or tell the truth and pray 1:9 chances are in your favor and your "friend" isn't queerphobic and won't tell you to seek therapy. And even if by some miracle they aren't, they'd still avoid talking about your sexuality/gender experiences because deep down it does makes them uncomfortable. That's closest to accepted you've felt irl, so you keep quiet
At school you hear peers talking about hanging out after school; open hanging out, everyone's invited. When school bell rings you're packing stuff and going right home
A papa 🐉 tending to his garden and shoveling soil to plant some seeds. His toddler, who's romping around in his mini-dragon form, is tailing him. The little boy happily helps papa by digging holes with his paws like some energetic puppy.
Except the dirt the boy digs up flies straight to the ones his papa has carefully shoveled.
Malleus laughs merrily at the chaos his son made. He pats the boy's head with a toothy smile.
"Thank you, my little assistant."
He's already took the entire day off, so a few more hours of extra gardening work isn't too bad.
