not gonna lie, the eclipse was a masterpiece.

like, yeah, khao give us flirty teenage badboy, but, heck, man. first really nailed the exact feeling of being closeted.

just found out that my dad thinks that its "not a man's place" to learn about periods and it is "absurd" that my brother should be learning about that age nine.

does that mean that he also believes that male members of government are not fully qualified to speak on women's issues?

no.

in fact, he holds the secret belief that there should be no women in government at all, and that's just great because there definately aren't women in the country that we live in, nope, nope, nope.

i don't believe that i, even as a dude who has periods, am fully qualified to speak on women's issues. i'm kinda like an enemy spy who learned the language from a book: i'm never going to fully understand how the natives speak and think, but i am informed of my own experiences there in a rudimentary way.

but my dad, a cis man, thinks that other cis men have that right to speak on women's issues and make massive decisions on women's bodies, despite it "not being their place" to learn basic biology because it's not of their gender.

what?

and he's telling my brother that now, like??????

cis men are just :0 to me.

me, randomly: hey, have you ever thought about- my eight-year-old brother, interrupting: going to jail? my brother: yeah. me: ... my brother: ... me: ... me: not where i was expecting that to go... me: but i was going to ask- my brother: -if i've ever thought about the meaning of life? my brother: yeah. my brother, ominously: nothing. death is all there is for us. me: ... my brother: ... me: ... my brother, perkily: bye!

Things you should not say to people (especially neurodivergent people & people with trauma):

"It's weird that you carry a stuffed animal with you"

"just clear your head"

"you're not a kid"

"you're too old for toys"

"stop humming"

"stop bouncing your leg"

"just go over there"

"it's not that hard"

"grow up"

"you're talking too much"

"you don't seem [enter mental illness/disorder]"

"your room is disgusting"

"don't you ever do anything?"

"did you even try?"

"you look crazy"

"are you sure you want to wear that out?

"why are you always crying?"

"that's just life"

"get over it"

"you should understand this easily"

"I think you're faking it"

"i don't think you need meds"

"you used to be so happy"

"you've always had a good life"

"what part of ____ do you not understand???"

*yelling*

"it's not that many people, stop covering your ears"

"this is the real world"

"it's not hard to make friends"

"are you slow or something?"

"what's so hard about ordering food?"

"you're still not done with that?"

"it didn't seem like you had adhd until your diagnosis"

"i really don't think [insert mental illness/disorder is real"

"i don't care how you feel about it"

"why can't you follow simple instructions?"

"you always pull your phone out in public and don't talk to anyone"

"if you cared, you would've heard me"

"no, you're just not listening."

"it's just a hug!"

"could you just act normal"

"stop being so quiet"

"stop being so loud"

"why can't we touch you? we're your family."

RB and add your own! Remember that your mental illness does not make you any less of a person and no one should treat you as less of a person because of it. ✨

i love football because it means that the names i give my characters aren't unrealistic because people with names like ja'marr chase and eli apple and cooper kupp exist and thats beautiful.

a slap in the face

explain your gender in 10 words or less without using boring words like “male”, “female”, “nonbinary”, “masculine”, “feminine” or “androgynous”.

go!

help, i lost my het card! person who made me lose it, wanna help? we still can't find it? okay, lemme borrow yours- you- you- you don't have one?

they are looking for their heterosexuality

y'all do realize that we get the spoilers as to who ends up with taegyeong in the "end credits"?

the bracelet is daon, and the keyring is shinwoo. the picture is namgung and the book is mr. seo. the next frame is two hands, both reaching as if about to grab, but one has the keyring.

we know who the keyring represents, don't we?

so that's fun.

honestly, as a nigerian oldest son, i could totally empathize with pat and pran and their attitudes towards their parents.

many african families are agressively tight-knit, and often, what ever your parents say goes. kids aren't allowed to bring someone form a different tribe home, and often it's treated as a joke, or a shortterm fling.

and i'll never truly understand what its like in an east/south-east asian family, but i could empathize, and as a bi dude who hasn't come out yet, it made sense.

pat and pran's reactions to their parent's reactions to their relationship was so moving to me because it made sense. i could understand it.

it might not be totally the same, but if y'all ever wonder what black and south-east/east asian kids bond over: parental expectations.

don't worry asian community, us black folk gotchu.

It is hard to explain to non-Asian folks why we care about our parents' opinions that much (even when we know that it's borderline toxic and wrong). With Southeast/East Asians, you'll rarely see people go against their elder's wishes. Some of us don't even leave our parents' home after we are married. We continue to live in the same household, or at the very least, within arm's length of our original home.

Despite garnering thousands of international fans, BBS was mainly created for Thai audience who completely understand the nuances of choosing your family over your lover. It might not make sense to you, but it does make sense for a lot of us whose family dynamics are similar to Pran's and Pat's.

As Pran said, we all just got to live with it. 🥲

okay.

lets talk about the evil queen.

vanity, vanity, all is vanity - enough, in fact, that you would ask to have a teenager's heart cut out.

BUT.

when you try to murder them yourself, you just put them to sleep.

WHERE DID THE MURDER GO?

at this point? who knows.

for real, tho. what sense does that make?

your whole reason for killing her was so that she wouldn't out-beauty you or whatever, and if she's asleep, she's still pretty????? like, putting her to sleep ain't gonna do nothing for either for you. she's still alive but comatose, and you're still less pretty than her because she's still alive.

AND THEN,,,,

you leave in a giant loophole: the spell is broken by true love's kiss.

(i have no clue how that random prince kissing snow was true love's kiss, but that's an essay for later.)

LIKE,,,

were you counting on the fact that she'll never find anyone who loves her? cuz that is really freaking dumb.

why is it dumb?

because she's obviously super pretty, kind and nice? like-

its a giant freaking loophole, becase it means there's an antidote.

there shouldn't be an antidote! she's supposed to be dead! there isn't a freaking antidote for death!

(if there was, science would've found it already.)

so, yeah.

what happened to the murder, people? because it definately disappeared in act two.

next up most likely in linc's really stupid rants about fairytales: I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE HECKITY HECK YOU WERE EXPECTING EVIL STEP-MOM, BUT WHY WERE YOU SURPRISED WHEN YOUR BRATTY DAUGHTERS DIDN'T GET THE PRINCE, BUT YOUR KIND, HARDWORKING, BEAUTIFUL STEP-DAUGHTER DID?! LIKE- HONESTLY-

[lincnok]

okay, yeah, no, makes sense, good job three in the morning linc. wasn't expecting quality, ngl.

um... does anyone realize how stupid sleeping beauty's family was? like, no, really.

first, who invites the whole kingdom (how did they fit in the building btw, like how small was the kingdom and how big was the building, cuz in the disney movie it's in some kind of castle or something) but deliberatly leaves out one (1) person? like, dang, i would be upset too!

no wonder malificent was so pressed.

she was obviously a very powerful magic user and fairy, and it honestly didn't make sense for you to not invite her - that's just really petty, if i'm honest. like what did she do to you?

second - super powerful fairy shows up at what is essentially your baby's christening, and you, who invited fairies to bless her, don't expect the one (1) person you didn't invite (who happened to be said super powerful fairy) to not curse the kid? HA!

if you weren't expecting that, you're an idiot!

third. the curse weren't even that bad. she gave you so much time to prepare. literally 16 years. and okay, she did say that she was gonna die not sleep. but she probably would've accounted for the fairies softening the curse, and the true loves' kiss was probably a popular antidote at the time, and therefore was kind of implied? not that bad. she still had looks and intelligencnce. that could get her far, huh?

fourth, you - you isolated her?

what was that supposed to do?! if she needs true loves' kiss, raise her normally, teach her not to touch spindles and let her make a best friend, someone who she would trust enough to let kiss her to break the curse, someone she truly (TRULY) loved.

DID YOU NOT ACCOUNT FOR THAT????

as her parents, you should be focusing on raising your daughter and protecting her. SENDING HER INTO THE FOREST WILL ONLY STUNT HER EMOTIONAL GROWTH, ESPECIALLY WHO YOU SENT HER WITH, MORONS.

my goodness, honestly.

next up most likely in linc's really stupid rants about fairy tales: WHY THE HECK WOULD A WITCH WHO INITIALLY WAS FULLY PREPAREED TO CUT A FOURTEEN-YEAR-OLD'S HEART OUT MAKE HER FALL ASLEEP AND THEN (and then) PUT IN A "TRUE LOVES' KISS" CLAUSE?!

naw b- thats not cool, don't do that to them poor frogs, man. froggy wonder would be honestly offended.

hey y’all I just found the sloppiest, wettest sounding bass patch I’ve ever heard. here you go 

[lincnok]

i have a friend, i would call him my best friend, and he's just the friggin coolest.

lets call him bean.

so bean is super cool, like really cool. he says he isn't cool but he really is.

he gives the best hugs, and he makes bad jokes that are so bad they're funny, and understands that sometimes i just need affection, and loves rainbows and puts them in his insta bio even though he's straight, and hangs out with a bunch of weirdo queer people, and doesn't mind being what my friend group calls 'the cishet safety net'.

but i feel bad cuz bean is straight, and he's young and i'm not going to be as huge a part of his life as he is to me. he wants a girlfriend, and that's cool. i 10000% want to be his wingman. but.... i keep getting worried that he'll get tired of me. which sucks. cuz he's cool and i love him.

but other people need bean, not just me. other people need bean, bean who's okay with holding their hand when you walk in the halls when they don't have romantic feelings for each other even though he could get bullied or harrassed for it. other people need bean, bean who hugs you in the middle of class because he notices you're uncomfortable. other people need a bean, cuz bean isn't just for me, he's his own person and other people need him in their lives.

and it makes me happy that other people will have bean, and will love bean the way he wants to be loved.

cuz its all well and good that i get this super cool dude, but others need him too, cuz he's just that cool.

so anyway, this was my best friend appreciation post.

(it ain't his birthday or nothing, i just haven't seen him all day and i miss him.)
