And another thing that gets me about the human condition is how we weren't even meant to survive this world alone - humans with humans. We chose to trust certain animals, to nourish them, to be symbiotic with them, to love them like we love ourselves. I think a lot of people talk about how selfish it is for humans to take advantage of animals, but I think that's too simplistic. It's closer to friendship - if you do not foster the relationship, then it simply won't go anywhere, and I think the implication that animals can't ever know anything for themselves, for their survival, is also human-centric and selfish (selfishness not inherently being a bad thing).
It's just nice to know that we want to be around people - we want to be around comfort and security and safety so much that we now have animals by our side. Every time I cuddle with my cat, I think that we weren't meant to survive this world alone; she is shaped to fit in my chest, and my arms were made to wrap around her.

i put pokemon card mystery packs on my etsy just now. just a stack of bulk from my year of collecting pokemon cards. i'll be turning in a bunch of bulk to the card shops, but I thought wouldnt it be fun to make my own mystery packs? i always loved goodie bags, grab bags, blind bags, and gacha. its a thrill of opening something and getting something unexpected more than the items themselves.
altho getting a $100 card is pretty neat. Here's the link if you're interested~ https://www.etsy.com/listing/1717302949/pokemon-tcg-bulk-mystery-goodie-pack-of

Imagine your siblings child referring your F/O as their Uncle/Aunt because you two have been together so long !!
You've been together practically their whole lives, whether your F/O is good with/likes kids, they were always around when you babysat (Because you live together. Maybe they were helping you with your niece/nephew! Maybe they were just watching TV in the same room and got dinner ready so you could continue keeping an eye on the baby. Maybe they hid away in your shared bedroom the whole time but the child always knew they were there), they maybe even went to family gatherings with you!- they have just been a constant in your niece/nephews life. Just like you.
In this kids mind, you and your F/O are a package deal.

it's like. everything happens so much. it's all happening right now but at the same time nothing is happening whatsoever. it's a liminal space of an existence. it's slowly crushing me under the weight but when I look up there's nothing actually bearing down on me. there shouldn't be any weight. something is wrong but nothing has happened. I'm simultaneously overwhelmed and utterly bored. nothing is happening and maybe that's the everything that's happening. maybe the everything is the nothing. we aren't there yet but it's all so imminent. either everything is going to crash down or nothing is. I'm just waiting to figure out which.

OH YOU KNOW WHAT
"but i'm not anything like you / cause i'm fantastic / i'm still not worth your time" kobra if he and poison seperated for a while and he built up his own name, racing, fighting, if it was him and ghoul or something who then joined party and jet to form the fab four but it still. wasn't enough
WHEN I TELL YOU THAT ALMSOT THAT EXACT THING IS INTEGRAL TO ALL MY VERSIONS OF KOBRA-
i especially love the idea that they end up back together out of a sense of obligation more than anything. and maybe kobra thinks that because hes older now and he's grown and hes his own person it wont matter- and then as soon as hes in such close proximity with party again everything just falls back how they used to be. party still has this hight and mighty attitude (worse now probably) and they still dont give a shit how their actions effect other people or how they effect themself - and so kobra just ends up feeling stuck because he know he *cant* leave them again because theyre siblings damnit, but they are just so exhausting to be around and kobra cant help but think they dont even deserve his help a lot of the times bc they never seem to learn. and yet kobra keeps fucking trying anyways because he has to, because as much as he states the contrary he knows deep fucking down that theyd do the same for him if the roles were reversed

saying this for the benefit of all the other adhd bitches who have dolls: please just use that nice piece of clothing you're saving. do not just put it away for the nine hundredth time because "what if I find a doll that suits it better" you can take it off whatever doll you're putting it on now, then. "what if i forget" more likely to forget about it if you just chuck the outfit back into storage "what if i fall in love with it on that doll and don't want to remove it" then you don't actually want to put it on the other doll. use the clothes for their intended purpose instead of hedging your bets on Doll Futures

You guys I'm so excited for tomorrow!!!!! I literally haven't even been to a sleepover at someone else's house in over like 5 years, so the fact that I'm going to be multiple hours away from home without my parents tomorrow is crazy!!!! It's going to be an awesome couple of days in the Bay Area. This is the most independent thing I've ever done.
