In the last 18 months, I helped my sister plan her wedding, planned her bachelorette trip, threw her wedding shower, threw my sister-in-law a baby shower, and today threw my sister a baby shower.
I am now requesting at least a three year break from party planning.

Finally finished a little piece of writing, so that's really great actually. Now to decide whether to attempt to replicate that success or pick a less intensive activity.

he says i hate everyone except you and that is addictive and that is kind of romantic and beautiful because you're young and you're kind of a sarcastic asshole too and you don't like bad boys, per say, but you don't really like good ones either. and you like that you were the exception, it felt like winning.
except life is not a romance book, and he was kind of being honest. he doesn't learn to be nice to your friends. he only tolerates your family. you have to beg him to come with you to birthday parties, he complains the whole time. you want to go on a date but - people are often there, wherever you're going. he's just so angry. about everything, is the thing. in the romance book, doesn't he eventually soften? can't you teach him, through your own sense of whimsy and comfort?
at first - you know introverts often need smaller friend groups, and honestly, you're fine staying at home too. you like the small, tidy life you occupy. you're not going to punish him for his personality type.
except: he really does hate everyone but you. which means he doesn't get along with his therapist. which means he has no one to talk to except for you. which means you take care of him constantly, since he otherwise has no one. which means you sometimes have to apologize for him. which means he keeps you home from seeing your friends because he hates them. you're the single exception.
about a decade from this experience, you'll type into google: how to know if a relationship is codependent.
he wraps an arm around you. i hate everyone except you. these days, you're learning what he's actually confessing is i have very little practice being kind.

Been thinking about how Donnie and Leo’s insecurities juxtapose each other.
Donnie is insecure about his place in the family, but confident in who he is outside of it.
Leo is secure about being a part of the family, but thinks he’s nothing outside of it.
I think it’s a very interesting comparison that reflects their respective personalities, Donnie’s “Will all I have to offer be enough?” versus Leo’s “Do I even have anything else to offer?”

Hi! I hope that you are doing well🥰💗💕 I really adore your art!! Your Yuu really wins me over to the very heart!💘💘💘
I wear lightning-shaped earrings and they really remind me of Sebek!⚡ I would like your girl to put them on and draw this🥺💓
But I also really love her black earrings that she wears when she's a teenager and green ones when she's an adult! It's really cute💕💕
And! I would be interested to know if Sebek notices when Yuu puts on other earrings or doesn't wear them at all if she doesn't want to?👉👈💗
Have a nice day!🥰❣️❣️❣️
decide ur ending, which feels more in character

I moved recently to start a new job and part of my commute now involves one of those high capacity toll booths where a two lane road suddenly flares out into 5-7 lanes of total anarchy with no lines anywhere, and then narrows back down to two lanes again, and we're just supposed to sort ourselves out? Who designed this
anyway I dreamed up this helpful anatomical guide on the drive home

A while back @naffeclipse answered a question from @boxofcreampuffs’s asking: “what would the boys do if they lost their vessel?” (This post)
@pure-plum came up with the adorable idea of the hunter sewing up a rag doll for the boys to settle in while they searched for a more suitable vessel for both the boys and their little hunter to enjoy.
Needless to say I fell in love with the concept and jumped to draw it immediately XD

somehow being a weird teenage girl in a plague-ridden insanity-flavoured steppe town is easier than being an adult with a degree and a gun OR a massive fucking bear guy who could snap your neck with one hand. interesting!

On Tim's Boat
*Tim and Bernard are laying in bed sleeping, limbs entangled as Bernard sleeps on Tim's chest*
*at 3:47am Bernard is awoken*
Bernard, swatting Tim as he is squinting in the dark: Hey grasshopper? Is that a sleep paralysis demon-
Tim, shifting slightly, eyes still shut, basically sleepy mumbling: you wouldn't be hitting me, you'd be paralyzed
Bernard: then I think someone is stealing clothes from our closet
Tim, running his hand through Bernard's hair so Bernard knows he is listening: don't know why, we are the pits of fashion, they should be stealing from Sophie and Louie's closet, or even Tammy and Lauren's closet
Bernard: is that... Robin?
Tim, wide awake now, swiveling his head towards the closet: WHAT?
Damian, standing there in a Robin outfit looking through their clothes in the closet, gathering a pile on his arm: Your father wants you to call him, Drake
Bernard: Robin works for Bruce? Actually, that's not surprising.
Robin, walking out with a pile of clothes on his arm: I am confiscating these *walks out the door*
Bernard:
Tim:
Bernard:
Tim:
Bernard: Guess you could say he was... Robin us.
Tim: You're lucky I love you
Edit: Part 2

This video is so fucking good.
I feel like this is such a good video for holding someone's hand through understanding. not that anyone should have to have their hand held to be kind, but for people whose folks--without hand-holding--will not put in the effort to get it, this video existing will really help ease that burden by providing something that will do some of that work for them.
I particularly think it will be helpful to show people who are generally trans affirming, who intend to side with trans people on trans issues (would probably need the issue's existence & relationship to transness stated explicitly, but would support the 'trans rights' position once they realized the issue existed), but who do not really understand why. they would do it because they believe they should.*
*(which is great! so much better than many other people. BUT allying yourself with someone just because you feel socially that "you should" without having an analysis of why, can leave you so vulnerable to propaganda that preys on the areas where the bond of solidarity is only simple social pressure. Reactionaries can present a new explanation, that might convince you that, maybe, the social pressure around you is in the other direction. maybe the thing you "should" do socially, is to break the line of solidarity. They can manipulate people's perceptions of which side is the social good. If it's just social pressure holding you in solidarity, fash can EXERT social pressure and create social consequences. If it's not grounded in analysis & understanding how trans struggle aligns with your values, then the solidarity is just so vulnerable.)
With that said, reading through the comment section, it stunned me that there were actually some conservatives reconsidering their positions after watching, and that makes me wonder if for some (I still think this video will probably be most successful for getting cis liberals to just think a bit harder) it might serve as a first step de-radicalization tool.
(Dropping two example comments below the cut that really surprised me. I'm adding below the cut cause these are still deeply prejudiced people and you don't need to see it. but if you're curious, I wanted to add the screenshots. For anyone who doesn't want to read them, one example that just stunned me was a conservative who, by some grace of the normally fash-acceleration algorithm, was directed to this video after watching Matt Walsh's transmisogynist propaganda video, and is basically expressing that this video gave them enough perspective to make them question their assumptions and reminded them of trans people's humanity.
It's so hard to inspire even a little hiccup in bigoted thinking--especially after just having consumed a whole transphobia special-- & that this could do that even for just one person? genuinely impresses me as a piece of nonfiction art.)

hey do u ever think about how crowley's eyes (a feature he's worked to hide nearly his entire time on earth) were fixated so so so firmly on aziraphale during the final fifteen, to the point where he followed the tiniest of movements, even as tears began to form in his waterline? even as his not-quite-human-heart was splintering in his chest?
CAUSE I DO
how was this permitted to be aired???? knowing full well that angsty queers like me would be sliding down the wall sobbing about it????
(also, if u want to read more about crowley and his eyes, i am once again recommending one of alex's metas: x)
anyway! full gif below the cut!
yippee!
