#YOU DONT KNOW HOW HAPPY YOU HAVE MADE ME

[cheesecake-beech]

M-.... may I hear about them???

YESYES U MAY 😭😭😩😩😩😩😩🥵

OMG OMG OKAY SO LIKE LEMME INTRODUCE YOU TO THEM, GIVE YOU LIKE A QUICK RUN DOWN ON THEM- HEHEGEWGHFHDGSFDSHDH

They're like BESTIES, both as normal civilians and while doing some crazy shit as Villains 😩💅🏽💅🏽✨ (they slay honestly) even tho TECHNICALLY they don't work together (like as an "official" team) as villains, they do share their chemistry, engineering and electrician knowledge to help each other create gadgets. THEY'RE JUST An OT3 FRIEND TRIO

they will literally DIE for each other, and support each other unconditionally. Like high school bffs they share all the tea.

They're also badass bitches and got that villain DRIP

anyWAY-

LONG POST UNDERTHE CUT BECAUSE I WENT OFF AND AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH KJDSAGJFJDGSFHDSGJFGDSJ

😍😍😍 THIS IS ALAN

As a civilian -He's just a candy store manager 🧍🏽+ A candy brand owner -RICH BICH -Seems to always have candy on him

As a Villain -Surprised how no one has caught him, he literally wears the same thing, just a longer coat 🧍🏽 -Known as "Sizzle" because that's his favourite kind of sound he's weird like that

Alan Rockwell is a somewhat well known candy store manager as well as a candy brand owner. He seems to always carry candy on him so if you see him, don't be afraid to ask for some ;) Then theirs the "Sizzle" side of him, still the same guy, just a longer coat 🧍🏽(ppl just be blind ig) and his favourite candy "pop rocks" turned into his greatest weapon >:D this bitch turned candy into explosives just so he can steal precious valuables and monies

THIS IS VALERIE 😊😊😊

As a civilian -She's still a baddie honestly, just in more colourful clothes -Hairstylist -Into roller disco honestly 😩

She's a badass either way

As a villain -Turns Goth/Punk because she says it contrasts against the colours of her bomb powder -known as "Smoke Bomb" I wonder why 🧍🏽🧍🏽🤯 -Demolition expert, she doesn't care if she dont have a permit

Valerie is a QUEEN honestly, il her. (She was the first OC I made for this film and overall the one who gave me the inspiration to make the others look SLAY) she's into all sorts of fashion, but kinda a bitch. She's a hairstylist (as a coverup job 🧍🏽) and honestly she'll make her clients cry by just her harsh critique before finally cutting it to make it look amazing,

As Smoke Bomb, she's still a bitch 🧍🏽 BUT HOT GOTH/PUNK QUEEN 😍😍😍 this girl goes crazy when she's out and about, whether it be just causing havoc, looking for something, or just testing out her bombs. She goes wild. It's a plus that the streets will be coated in the chalk dust 💅🏽✨

AND THIS IS ELLIOT! 🥺🥺

As a civilian -He's a HOUSEHUSBAND/BOYFRIEND 🥺🥺 -Pure boy (at times) -makes the best breakfast -Lovable 🥺🥺 -break his heart or mess with his friends or lovers he'll find you

Knows how to make poison from scratch 🧍🏽

Can hide poison in all foods and drinks🧍🏽

As a villain -He left that life behind- -BUT with some coaxing or bribing theN MAYBE he'll take his robot babies out for a little chaos :^) -Use to be known as "Blaze" -his suit can shoot lasers out of his fingers 🤯🤯 -Destroy his robot babies, he'll destroy a whole block, and then you

Elliot is a SWEETHEART, an ABSOLOUTE ANGEL not to mention a househusband/bf (bc he's not officially married yet djhfksfhds) AND JUST AN ABSOLOUTE CUTIE. He's just got a heart full of gold and is JUST A PUREST BOI BoTH ON THE OUTSIDE AND somewhat ON THE INSIDE 🥺🥺

As Blaze, that dude is long gone (he says every time after he was tempted to pull a heist) was someone he could just let out all the pent up anger or stress AND OUT ONTO THE STREETS AND BUILDINGS WHILE HE STOLE SEVERAL THINGS 🤪 He was also great at engineering and built robot droids he called his babies "his little invaders from space" who are now locked in his basement 🧍🏽HE CHERISHES THEM SM he puts his heart and soul into every one. 😭

OKAY MORE SHIT

Alan was the one who brought Valerie and Elliot to his little squad. It started with just him and Valerie, then Alan became acquainted with Elliot. Became even more silly chaos when the three of them found out that they were training to become villains 🤯🤯🤯 These bros went to every villain con (probably stole a lotta shit from the other villains their xd) before finally helping each other make their own personas recognized (of course as their own and not as a squad, was the agreement) But they still help each other, BECAUSE BFFS.

These guys will literally die for each other (mostly Valerie and Alan WILL DIE for Elliot) like fite one of them then the others will be at ur door

I also kinda maybe just mayebye kinda also just a little have oc x cannon ships for these guys DSFHGDSJFGDSJFGSDFDSKJ

what was with cameron house md she spends 90% of the episode saying she wants their patient to die bc he's a genocidal dictator and her colleague husband says "babe it bothers me for ethical reasons that you want our patient to die :(" and she said "hm maybe you're right :/" but when it comes down to it the genocidal dictator lays a finger on her in an aggressive manner and chase instantly commits medical malpractice to murder the guy and then when he tells her she LEAVES HIM bc boo hoo he's a murderer now like GIRL he killed a man for you!!! he's wracked with catholic guilt!!! he's being crushed beneath the weight of his sins because he chose his devotion to you over his devotion to god!!! he literally could not get any sexier at this moment in time!!!

#girl what are you doing...... #also just in general she did not deserve him honestly he was so good to her and for WHAT #just to be abandoned at peak devotion and guilt and hotness 🙄 #girl get OUT of my way i'm stronger than you #if she cared she could fix him or make him worse but i could love and support him no matter what 😌 #his muder is a part of him and its SEXY #robert chase #house md #malpractice md #i know the actors broke up irl or whatever but wtf..... #i should have ended my rewatch w their happy lil wedding at the end of s5 #s6 everything instantly goes to shit #and stays shitty #chase should be happy fr #he's supposed to turn into house basically but they should have made him the well adjusted version of house #like how nightwing is the well adjusted version of batman #anyway i have no real point here i just lowkey dont like cameron bc of this arc #also her obsession w house is so weird i wish they hadn't made that a thing #this has been a shitpost #anyway she left chase at the absolute peak of his sexiness wtf....... #anyway since this apparently needs to be said its not that deep this is a silly post if you send me hate messages i wont answer #i block and ignore anon hate bc i am too busy touching grass to be rude to strangers over a tv show

On the string propaganda

Heeellll yeah

Bestie is an entire PLACE

I look at those guys and let me tell you the soul of that thing ain't just in the puppet, it's in all the neurons carrying the thoughts and emotions, it's in the power rails that serve as the heart. All the memories in the memory conflux and all the numbers we see flicker across displays, the flux condensers, the puppet; a little avatar.

No way these massive machines see life the same way we do. They have their own experiences and senses and things they hold dear. A world we can't imagine, a way of living we couldn't even comprehend.

I could never tear an iterator apart to be just a puppet. Who am I to decide how's life supposed to be enjoyed or perceived?

You treat your creechurs however you want- I ain't gonna dictate that. But damn, hearing the thrums and buzzes of the linear systems rail? They are alive with so much power, these mechanical beasts are exactly what they should be.

#sorry im just a really passionate on the string believer #you cant tell me that these massive structures kilometers wide capable of things we cant even image would look at something thats #thats comparable to a speck of dust and be like #yes i would like to rid myself of practically my entire body to be that tiny #this aint no “if i were a supercomputer i'd be sad i couldnt see the sky like i do now” #thats only because you have something to compare it to #if i were to suddenly loose everything to be just some microscopic creature i'd be miserable but only because i know what im loosing #id be loosing the ability to think like i do now id be loosing the ability to enjoy the things i do now #i dont know what life is like as a microscopic creature but i wouldnt be willing to give up my life as i know it now #and i think with iterators are the same #just how different is their life from ours and what things can they see that we are missing out on? #give up everything comfortable and known and for what?? #to feel the sun? they absolutely have various temperature sensors #see the sky? those overseers were made to see things those visuals are in 4k #other animal comforts?? what about computer comforts?? #what makes a lil creature happy may not necessary make a massive supercomputer happy #sorry big rant in the tags um just wanna say this is no hate to anyone who wants their creatures off the string #these are fictional beings and you do whatever makes you happy take them off the string set them loose yess enjoy little robots running #around be happy i love reading ya alls off the string shenanigans #rain world #iterator #drawins #oc veil of dreams #rw talk #rain world oc #iterator oc

Deacon loves two things: Ymber and digging himself a grave.

Fulj hates one thing: Deacon.

#my characters #waiting on some info on the next commission so i indulged in ocs today bc i doubt i will have as much time for lil comics for a bit #deacon is so devoted hes like yeah i would kill for a deity that could easily kill anything himself but yknow teehee #and fulj just did you tell him you needed therapy also does he even know youd murder in his name #deacon caught red handed haha no of course i havent told him it should be obvious enough haha.... and its in his defense not his name :c #man really does have some issues but i love him so much and hes so devoted but like. unhealthily after a while #he does in fact need a chill pill and therapy but to be fair #ymber has needed therapy for centuries and yet he just bottles it all up and suffers so #its pretty unhealthy until they yell at each other one (1) time bc they are so insecure about things and get mad over very valid reasons #but then theyre like you know what that was necessary and i still want to stay by your side if you let me #and then fulj is like dude hey sorry you seem really happy did you fu- and ymber is like no please stop there we have not #fulj just squinting cause have not is very different than will not but whatever she doesnt wanna think about that with deacon involved ew #and eventually fulj is like hey ymber im sorry to say but i really do hate deacon and i dont even know why but he makes me uncomfortable #while deacon is just. in the room. hearing this and thinking how he knows she thinks hes weird but wow that wording hurts #and ymber doesnt wanna fill in memories better forgotten by fulj which she had forcefully removed #so he just says oh well his hair and clothing are black and you had someone in the past that you might see in him and its not a pleasant en #so you know maybe its that idk #and fulj is then WHATST i was rude to him for someone i cant even remember? lame im gonna try SO HARD to be nice to him now #and deacon just still sitting there with some food like this is v awkward and i wish i could not be here for it #and later he asks ymber about who he resembled and as ymber is descibing her it clicks in deacons head and he gets really sad #that he might somehow remind fulj of the woman she loved before she was punished for loving a mortal #and he feels kinda bad pestering her so much with his curiosities about deities and he kinda gets it #the fact hes close to ymber might remind her at the core that she was once that close with a mortal if not closer #anyway story time in the tags again #im so obsessed with these peeps and i have made them suffer so much but they do all end on a happy note #its still funny and nice to me that while fulj is creeped out by deacon and doesnt like talking to him #he still expresses the most emotions to her - he tries hard to remain serious around ymber and collected and obedient at all times #and when out and about with ymber he has to be intimidating and refuses smiling but fulj?? all sunshine and smiles and emotions easy to rea #and she is just that is so weird go away i hate you

S1M* is now available, with digital and physical copies! This art magazine features 50 different artists (myself included!) and is chockers full of incredible art!!!

This is arguably the coolest project I've been involved with to date, and I'm so happy with how my piece turned out. Please consider grabbing the free copy to check out all the incredible artists, or consider purchasing a physical edition!

https://s1m.ufoshock.moe/

This is pretty different from the stuff I usually make, but I feel when it come's to art for arts sake, this is one of my strongest pieces to date. It was so nice to go back to my roots of fine art and make this, and I almost gave up and quit this project. I'm so happy I didn't, because this is one of my favourite things I've ever illustrated.

#art #illustration #anime #horror #body horror #UFOSHOCK #flesh #meat #fleshcore #meatcore #i dont know what im doing with these tags uhh #horror art #internet #y2k #I will probably disappoint you one day #my art #I CANNOT FUCKING WAIT TO SHOW OFF THE WHOLE THING IN A BIT #CAUSE FUCK #I POPPED OFF WHEN I MADE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #JUST LET ME HAVE THIS ONE SEC #I'M SO FUCKING HAPPY WITH HOW THIS CAME OUT #IVE NEVER DRAWN A PROPER ANIME GIRL IN MY LIFE AND LOOK AT THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #I'M TOO FUCKING POWERFULL NOW #I'M FUCKING UNSTOPPABLE #anywya the secret sauce is: just say to yourself #no mattter whast it takes I WILL draw the subject matter #and dont stop till it looks good #pulled up so many pics of vtubers as reference for this #it was so much fun!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey babes, sorry I've been dead, but I coulda been literally dead if I had not gone.

I didn't hurt myself and we're still figuring things out. I would love to share but I've already forgotten what I've learned. I hope I get more guidance and time for healing and learning on how to lead my life in a better direction than where I was. But that takes time and effort.

I hope to get some rest, get some support, and get it together. But right now, I don't think it's healthy for me to worry about art in the way I do now. I may not express it here, but trying to maintain my art endeavors/projects while there's so much bullshit going on backstage is not helping me. Especially since I'm not even obligated to do so. But trying to force myself to do something I am currently unable to do will just make me feel worse. I'll follow my dreams and passions one day, but I've been putting off the healing process for years.

So I guess it's better to get better now so I can get the ball rolling again. Why drive on a flat tire?

#i was in there for a week and ill continue partial hospitalization for a few weeks #i hope i learn more and i hope i get specific help to my issues. because whay i learned there didnt directly pertain to me #but having structured daily life felt nice. but it wasnt all relaxing because there were still responisibilites on the outside world #tapping on the window or calling me on the phone. chose the best time for a meltdown. i have taxes and credit card bills to take care of #but if i stress about it now ill jsut be going back to the ER and thats no good. the hospital was so cold dude im glad im home with blankets #this is mr octopus again. im glad i broguh hom to work. i went straight to er from work and if i had no plushie with me #i probably would have stayed longer or be even more mentally unstable and distressed. its good to have comfort items #i dont think i want to know ehat if be like without some kind of companion or grounding item with me. i dont want to imagine me without em #its okay to have a little friend with you. i would be so distraught. everyone loved me there #the nurses the patients the residents yhe social workers the students #mr. octopus made them happy because of his big smile and mine too. the people there did not expect the mass amoutns of stress and depression #in this bubbly happy baby witb a happy pink octopus. one of the patients thought it was the meds the happy pills they gave me #no im jsut naturally like this. or artificially like this. i still dont know how to express or understand my feelings #if what im showing is real or not because i know ill be the happiest in the room wherever i go. maybe its a front or a mask #but when im like that kinda hard to know whats really underneath. they always ask me if im okay but i turn to myself #and its nondescript like ive put a blanket over how i really feel. its weird. the bubbly energy is blinding. #words #mr octopus #mental health #doodles

sometimes i'll think abt a Fandom and wish it were bigger, and sometimes i'll read something from a fandom.. and wish it were smaller

#ppl seeing a confident black man : FINALLY! A PERFECT ANTAGONIST FOR OUR STORY! #THE CORRUPTOR!! THE ASSHOLE! MR KNOWS ALL! #i want to be bigger into football. i rlly do #but . omg. sometimes seeing just So Much . side eye shit is . like imagine my exhaustion #and this isnt me trying to be the behavior police like let ppl write but sometimes seeing such. Fun. patterns can be like #idk man it's sad like damn thats rlly how the world is and obvs i KNOW how it can be but it's real wack #real wack being reminded even in ur supposed happy place ur supposed lighthearted little break from the world #it's still not . idk. it's just not #oh the poor pale blond qb just a little anxious baby oh and his evil zany teammates trying to corrupt him oh theyre so terrible for my angel #:/ #.. that is. a Grown. Man . #it's like replaying my 2nd grade teacher ******** me bcs i was a troublesome kid and it made her feel young and alive and bad again #like wtf am i corrupting you with maam? skibbity toliet ? leave me alone !! #listen. if it were smthing like 'x rlly likes tomatoes' when he actually likes idk carrots? i would not give a fuck. infact i prefer carrots #but bad patterns have smthing more to say bcs patterns in general have a story #it's more than 'he would not fucking say that' it's 'WHY tf are YOU making HIM say THAT of ALL people & THINGS???' #like i love having asshole characters in my stories too. and they can be poc ! NO ONE is a saint! #but having one just to fuel the only one u actually care abt? having their problems solely be for plot?? & making that one #a SPECIFIC kind of person ?? is kinda giving me 'u dont view x as a human which could mean you dont view x race as humans' #WHICH IS !! IT SUCKS ! THAT SUCKS! #i know i need to just suck it up and ignore it but thats like the life quote of being poc isnt it #ugh #it sucks

[cybrthrillz]

trust me when i say that i really dont gaf whether people reblog my art or not and i dont understand people who go like "if you like without reblogging i will block you" i literally just look at the notes and go "wow those numbers are numbering!" and move on with my life. i would literally only care if its a commissions post but otherwise i really dont need anything but my friends' praise and the knowledge that people saw my art to be happy. polls are great bc they make me realize that a LOT of people actually see my art, they just dont interact. seriously dont feel pressured to leave tags or anything, if my art managed to make u smile or laugh, then thats more than enough for me

#cybrtalkz #THAT BEING SAID YOU SHOULD ALWAYS SUPPORT SMALL ARTISTS! THIS IS JUST MY EXPERIENCE #also this isnt to bash on people who do really care about reblogs bc i get how it can be disheartening to have your art ignored #im a popular artist now so i cant say anything on that matter #this is just the case for me personally. i used to barely get any attention on my art at all and it was just the same friends replying to m #art and even that made me incredibly happy #ESPECIALLY when someone i dont know leaves a like or reblog #the primary reason i make art is to make people happy so any amount of people seeing it is enough of an accomplishment to me

Any men out there wanna pretend to be my bf to get my parents off my case about marriage? I am so so serious right now.

#my mom gave me a really really lonf lecture and upset me because her and my dad want me to start thinking about settling down ans getting #married. again. cos this comes up all the time. ans I reiterated that i do wanna marry and have kids. i know im 26 years old why do they' #think im also not aware of this??? like i suddenly forgot my own age and have my head in the clouds all the time. and i got so heated cos i #said they only believe in that in theory. in reality neither of them have accepted the idea od my leaving home or the idea of mw being with #a man. and they start freaking out if they even find out i talk to them so to say they want me to get married is so fucking naive #ans when i mentioned this and that they're more than ok w mt brothers talking tp women she said that if i wanted to settle down she could #talk to dad and they could “go about finding someone for me” and I've never been so pissed #i got so upset. why does everyone keep saying this to me. as if anyone my dad knows could ever be a half decent man #and the truth is they don't care if im in a happy marriage they've accepted that i won't be they only care that im gone and saving face in #front of family. that's all. it's always reputation it's always “what will people say?” #not once did love come up. not once did shw even imply that i should marryfor love #or that they hope i love someone and marry them. because they're more happy with the idea of me marrying for the sake of it than #they are at the idea of me finding genuine lovw #im not a fucking broodmare im not here to push out babies for the sake od reputation. #and then i said nor being married isn't the end of the world and she said “it's important that you settle down” #and i said im unwavering in my principles. she can call mw high maintenance like she loves doing but I'm not wavering on the #kind of man i want to be with and when i do marry him i want it to bw genuine. because be loves me and vice versa not because im ticking off #somethin from a damn checklist to appease them. and if being unwavering on my principles means staying unmarried then so be it. #my obligations are to god and myself and that's it #and y'know what??? i am in love with a boy already #and yet they don't care that i wanna be in love at all. no im just a puppet to follow a certain narrative in life live according to evergone #else has and that's it. #im done. #and then she tried to apologise by getting me a slice of cake and that somehow made me feel worse. #i dont want an apology. i want to be heard and actually listened to for once. i want someone to ask what i want. to actually give a shit #and love me cos it's me. not cos im some thing to further an agenda. or some toy or puppet that does your bidding. #is it so much??? to just want to be loved in return? to marry and live according to how i want to?? ans not want anyone to make these #decision's for me? #ruined my whole day.

I worked at the Bronx Zoo in 1995 and there was an old man volunteering there who in the 1920s saw their live thylacine. Sad conversation with him b/c he'd always known it was a special opportunity to see it, but he couldn't describe it as anything special - what he was saying was what you would say if asked to describe the video clips. The pure experience of it cannot be transmitted. I have loved thylacines my whole life and feel cheated. We were all cheated.

Woah! Lucky you :D There are probably not that many (if any) people alive today who saw a thylacine as kids and were old enough then to remember it still, since the last one died in 1936. Pretty cool that you met someone who did and got the chance to talk to him about it! Even if he didn't find it that special, I'd say that that puts you closer to tassies than most of us will ever be in a way :P Not many people can say they saw an extinct animal alive, so I think that alone is pretty cool too. I'd have asked him to describe so many details he'd probs be annoyed, lol. I can see why some people would think they aren't special, but I do. Yes, a lot of the wonder and mistique around them comes from the fact that they are extinct, but I think they're special on their own.

Possums that looked like wolves. What's not to love?

I love that you sent this ask, actually. It warmed my thylacine-loving heart in a way :'3 have some other pictures I took in the museum as a thank you (the lighting there is terrible for pics, but hopefully you enjoy it still)

But honestly, I get you. There are things that can't be said with words, and I think experiences are one of those things. Even with the most eloquent of descriptions, I think you can never fully understand what someone else went through or felt at a certain situation. I know that if I got to see a living thylacine, I'd never be able to convey what it meant to me. Even if most people found it dumb/didn't get why it was special to me. Heck, people at the museum were probably confused as to why I was crying at a mounted animal oop

It's sad, but in a way, thylacines disappeared twice. Once when the last one passed away, and again when the last people who saw them alive passed away too. First they were gone, and lived on only as memories. Now that the memories are gone as well since those people are (most likely) gone too, we only have the ghosts - the pictures, the drawings, the videos, which shape the ideas we get of them. Like you said, you, and I, and anyone else who wishes to see them, were robbed.

All we have of the thylacine is old. A video I've seen a million times, pictures that will never move or make a sound. We were robbed of so much when it comes to them. We were robbed of their sound, of their colors, their behavior. We have nothing now. We'll never know what they sounded like, or watch them hunt, or learn more about them. Really, all we have is ghosts and other people's memories as we look at the pictures other people took.

And that will have to do.

Little story for yall: when I was at the museum, there was a little girl with her dad there too. She'd jump from one animal to another, asking him to tell her where each animal lived (as the exibitions were labeled by place of origin of the animals). They got to the tassie the same time that I did, and when she asked "where does this one live?" he read the sign and replied "It doesn't live anymore. It doesn't have a home anywhere. They're gone."

And then they walked away, and I didn't see them anymore. But man, that hit hard. I keep hearing that in my head, over and over again.

It doesn't live anymore.

It doesn't have a home anywhere.

They're gone.

That dad and little girl probably didn't think anything of it. But I'll never forget that. How thylacines once lived, once had a home.

And now, there's none.

Been thinking of incorporating those sentences into a drawing of them or smth. I know it's very r/im14andthisisdeep but let me weird about them ok they make me sad

But yeah, that's my thylacine rant for the night. Because there aren't enough of those in my blog :P Thanks again for this, as it allowed me to ramble oops. Hope you doing well!

#Thylacine #Tasmanian tiger #Tasmanian wolf #ask #anon #also if anyone feels the need to comment about how this is probs fake and I fell for it or smth #dont <3 #i know people lie on the internet but let me have this #idec if it isnt real tbh it allowed me to ramble some and also made me happy #also like. some people out there were alive in the 90's and saw thylacines as kids #the bronx zoo had several thylacines until 1919 so. yeah #anon if yoire reading this im not calling you a liar!! i believe you and im really happy you shared this! #i just had to deal with a bunch of people being rude online recently and it left me jaded #thanks again! <3 #Oslo Museum #extinct animals

Not to be an animanga fan on main (one of the main topics i talk about) BUT oushi from a sign of affection sucks so much ass dude. Say what you want about him as a kid learning sing language and calling yuki an idiot, he was a kid its whatever. The issue is. He acts the exact same, while also infantalizing yuki and acting like she cant make her own decisions, and deciding that, even though he knows nothing about itsuomi and hasnt seen yuki and itsuomi interact, that CLEARLY itsuomi is just using her and eventually he’ll leave or some shit. Hes made up this whole false narrative, as if yuki cant make her own decisions, because she’s a disabled person. Literally fuck off sooo much dude. She’s deaf, not a fucking child. Get a grip, and acknowledge that shes never gonna be in a relationship w you dude. And also maybe grow as a person or some shit godbless.

#yubisaki to renren #yubiren #a sign of affection #look ive read the manga ok #ik he gets. some form of development #but he also. makes me pissed ofd #i feel like every time he shows up hes sad that hes in love w yuki #or pissed off bc of itsuomi existing #like dude. you have friends. youre not an awful person #do some gdamn self reflection #understand that yuki is happy #and that itsuomi isnt the villain youve made him to be #and also. get off your high horse holy shit #like how well do tou actually know yuki #lmao. #sorry i was thinking about him and i got. peeved #anyway pls dont take this too seriously. its like 1am for me lmao #i think hes a well written character that doesnt mean i have to like him 🫶 #ghost rambles #i might delete this tbh i get nervous posting things like this usually #and i def didn’t word this good lmao

i send my friend suggestions of tourist places to see in his new country (his contract was extended, lucky him!) or messages about friend of friends i have living there that he could maybe meet for fellow americans to talk to, and his response is always that he doesnt have time. and not in that exaggerated way that people do to seem busy. but in that bone tired way i recognize from him here in LA, that i recognize in myself.

#jrnlsht #i watch the lives of my friends who have Made It on social media and its like looking through glass into another world i cant relate to #theyre so happy and confident and successful and its beautiful #you know whats a funny thing about LA #so many people on the on*line da*ting apps put *successful* on their list of requirements in the people they want to date #like theres a bar of entry and if you haven't reached a certain goal post like... blue check marks on your social media or a level of wealt #then they arent even going to want to get to know you #and its so antithetical to how i was raised i cant even comprehend #and yet i see it happening to my own relationships #in pittsburgh i had friends from literally ALL walks of life from people who made even less money than me to comfortable to fairly wealthy #here my friends are almost entirely of one professional class #and i have been observing how my hyper wealthy friends self select in who they interact with to maintain this wealthy bubble around them #i dont think it's entirely intentional but its also not not intentional if you know what i mean #anyway its one of the reasons i fucking loved the talk on saturday oh my god those two were a breath of fresh air i needed so much #these smart genius dudes built their own life and instead of constantly looking up for more and more personal gain #they paused and looked at the people still desperately trying to rise #and were like if i have gotten this far why cant i help you do it too and then they DID IT they actually started helping #i think that is the true meaning of success

I twisted my ankle in front of a store today, people actually were concerned enough to ask if I was fine. I almost FELL right on top of a toddler. I can't go out of my room without embarrassing myself for 15 minutes. Now I can't sleep because it hurts enough to be annoying. Spare me from my suffering this new years eve by depositing $100 in me account.

#im a menace to society a danger to myself #im joking but i am... in need of a cheer up #aughhh im so embarrassed why do i have stupid fucking feets i am so sorry everyone i never learned to walk #there's something so silly and girly about fucking tripping/falling down and i don't know why do I have to experience it #ig this kind lf stuff is keeping me humble #ALSO i dont know who even is going to read this. but it feels unfair to say that im sad right now #because i was meaning to make a post about how y'all leaving small comments before in my art actually made me pretty happy #So. thank you forever. ily. sorry for the occasional whining #me blabbering
