*ੈ✩‧₊˚✧ GIRLFRIEND ❥ The first time James calls you his girlfriend!! (fluff)

Today was the day you were all able to visit hogsmeade for the first time.

Correction, it was the first time you'd be able to visit hogsmeade with permission. To be fair you'd already been countless of times, after you made friends with James, Remus, Sirius and Pete. They'd taken it upon themseleves to show you all the secret passages they'd found prior to your friendship.

Even your first date with James had been spent sneaking into the very town, holding hands through the passage way and kissing off his butter-beer made mustache.

You were currently walking down in groups, you and James were holding hands slowly watching the others as they conversed.

Sirius was, of course taking as much of the attention he could get by speaking quite loudly, "Well I think we should go to Honeydukes first, I'm all out of chocolate frogs from our last trip!"

Pete squeaked nervously beside him, "Will you keep it down! Minnie will hear you!"

"He's right pads, keep it down, also maybe we should split up? I need to make a stop at Tomes and Scrolls." It was Remus he had been leisurely strolling after Sirius' gallavanting, every so often stretching his long limbs.

Sirius, like a child was the only one who didn't quite listen to Remus when he spoke, no matter how intimaditing he could be. "Fine, but we can't split up, that's against the code moons."

Remus huffed out annoyed,

"Are you seriously bringing that up right now?" James was getting uncomfortable, like he always did when they fought, shifting the arm he had around you.

"Yes. yes I am. and if you follow the code you know, we don't split up. ever."

Even Peter was getting antsy, you'd all stopped at the ridge right before entering the town to continue the conversation . "W-well, do we have to follow the code? Jamie brought his girlfriend for godrics sake, I hardly think its necessary!"

Your heart skipped and your cheeks flushed at being called James' girlfriend, you knew it wasn't exactly the time but you hadn't yet had that talk.

James finally spoke, brought out of his daze by the mention of you, "Pete's right, I did bring my girlfriend and if you lot want to split up go ahead, I'm going with her."

He pulled you against his side tightly, leading you through his friends who were still squabbling about the 'rules'.

Walking down to the main ridge you still couldn't proccess what he said, he'd called you his girlfriend, correct? Not person-he-was-dating, not friend, not anything else, but girlfriend. right?

As you approach the three broomsticks your eyes are still blown wide, asking hestitantly, "Y-you said girlfriend?"

He grinned down at you knowingly leading you toward an empty booth, "Yes sweetheart, I did."

"S-So am I- does that mean-we're-"

He leans down to kiss your temple, silencing you as he smiles and pulls back to see your hopeful face, "Yes' believe it means we're boyfriend-girlfriend now, if that's okay with you?"

When you seat yourself your mouth is still agape answering quickly, "Yea, yea that's more okay with me Jamie!"

He tries to hide the small tint in his cheeks by looking down at the menu the waitress put down, "Good to hear, so what're you having?"

And the rest of the trip is spent perfectly, stopping by your favorite shops, almost never being out of each others reach and buying enough goodies to last you till Christmas. He even lets you drag him into a jewelery store nearby the pub.

Yet throughout it all you're still in a slightly lovesick daze, because James Potter had called you his girlfriend.

Rambling About Hanakou <3

────── · · ୨୧ · · ──────

Hanakou has been a long-standing ship, cementing itself in the earliest chapters of TBHK - as far back as the Young Exorcist arc. At the time, Kou was mostly used as a gag character. He was a silly, bumbling exorcist, no good at his job, even though he had at first been established as a threat. (Although, he hadn't turned out to be more than a minor inconvenience.)

Though, when Kou had his moments ... they meant something. He was the tails of the coin, the yin to Hanako's yang. Alive, a slayer of the supernatural, weak despite his greatest effort. His brother's approval meant everything to him. And being rid of Hanako - it would get him that.

But Kou had never killed before.

That's not what Teru called it, at the very least. But in Kou's eyes, Hanako was a boy, barely younger than him. Mysterious, annoying, powerful. He couldn't help but feel that getting rid of him was wrong. But he had to. Hanako even said so himself.

Before Mitsuba had been introduced, Nene and Hanako were the most important characters to Kou. (Excluding Teru, but Teru was barely a character at that point.) Nene, the cute upperclassmen that he admired, and felt he must protect. Hanako ... Hanako confused him.

He seemed so straightforward, blunt, but roundabout and secretive and a mystery at the same time. The boy liked to bother him, skim through dirty magazines, and flirt with Yashiro. But he seemed sweet, too. Hanako liked donuts. He got flustered talking about things he actually liked. It was difficult to tell when he was joking or being serious at times.

The two of them also became sort of buddy-buddy - smushed into the same category by Nene, bonding over their care for her. They often found themselevs working together, and therefore, Hanako and Kou got closer. Being in such proximity all the time, who wouldn't?

Kou could claim all he wanted that he was doing this just to monitor Hanako, but he really had begun to enjoy his company. Hanako is a bit more difficult to understand, always the ever mysterious character, despite his open, blunt persona.

The main draw of Hanakou is that sort of dependancy on each other. Kou needs Hanako's strength. He's weak. He can't help against supernaturals well enough to matter. Hanako needs to talk to someone. To pretend things are like normal and he's a boy with friends and homework and teachers he hates for once.

There's also the exorcism of Hanako hanging over their heads. Kou needs to get rid of him one day. Basically, kill him. Hanako trusts Kou to take his life. His very being and existence.

The difference between Yugi Amane and Hanako. Hanako is Kou's friend. Amane is a murderer. Amane killed his brother. Amane didn't have friends. He didn't hang out with anyone. He didn't understand people. He's lost to time.

Hanako wasn't popular when he was alive. He was always overshadowed by his healthy, friendly brother. Weak, cold, that's what he was. Someone who pushed people away, who could only dream of a future where he mattered.

Maybe Hanako sees that in Kou. The desire to be loved. To be selfish enough to allow someone to love him. Just to let someone care about him. But Hanako finds himself personally disgusting. He's never liked himself, not from the beginning.

Kou and Hanako both struggle with a sort of self loathing, a deep, si ming feeling of inferiority.

Hanako had been sick, before. Weak and useless and pitiful, most of all. And he hated it. Feeling so helpless and like nothing and like he was just something to be sorry for. I'd expect that even though he healed, the remnants of those feelings probably stayed with him throughout his life. Maybe he's even come to loathe that name - Yugi Amane.

Kou, on the other hand, feels helpless as well. He's forced to rely on others to protect those he loves. No matter how hard he tries, he can't wield his clan's staff. He's unfit for his family's duty. Kou spends. most of his time taking care of others, and this had caused him to feel he needs to. He needs to help other people.

The arrival of Mitsuba caused Hanakou to mostly fall off the radar, then, to be doomed to the status of rarepair.

As an enjoyer of Mitsukou and Hanakou, I still believe Hanako and Kou can have their moments of preparation for exorcising Hanako, rebuiidling their trust, etc. Without Mitsukou being ruined. It's sad to see Hanako and Kou now interact so little and basically never think of each other.

(⸝⸝⸝╸▵╺⸝⸝⸝)

However, I'm interested to see how Hanako and Kou's arcs will tie off, and if they'll ever be as intertwined as before. (Or if Mitsukou scrubs their dynamic completely (╥ᆺ╥；))

If people enjoy this one I'll make an analysis of how I think Hanakou would work out 👍👍👍

KND (Mainly Sector V) Headcanons!

After a stressful mission, Sector V has a chill movie night / sleepover not at the treehouse but at one of their houses to make it more calming. Number 1 (pre-GKND) always tried to skip out so he could go on more missions but Sector V forced him into taking a break.

Number 1 has a small groupchat called "Part-Time Members of Sector V" that includes him, 274, Lizzie, and 362.

Number 3 made them all matching rainbow monkey pjs with their numbers on the shirt, as well as a rainbow monkey that matches them (1's has sunglasses, 5's has a hat, etc.)

3&4 and 2&5 go on double dates often.

274 is the only teen operative that most kid operatives know about due to the GKND situation and Lizzie is the only intergalactic operative thats well-known for the same reason.

GKND left Sector V, 274, 362, Lizzie, and honestly most other knd operatives with severe trauma. Some operatives begged 86 to decommission them asap because of it.

Nigel and Lizzie get back together and they're much healthier and more patient than last time.

#1 and #86 will NEVER get along and atp its not even really anything personal its to keep the dynamic going

362 and Lizzie are best friends (Often asking #1 why he didn't introduce them earlier), causing #86 and #1 to not constantly bicker bc they don't wanna ruin their gfs playdate w/ their arguing

Post-GKND Father is less of a huge villain and more of just an major inconvenience. He likes to cause trouble yk? He'll steal the code module and make the KND, Teen Ninjas, and Villians battle for it via a TDI-esque thing

Abby is the eldest member of Sector V and Wally is the youngest

When Mr. Boss was told about Fanny and Rachel dating (and introduced to 362 in general), he was kind of just awkwardly like "Oh hey! You like girls?? Me too! We have that in common, that's great!" and it made Fanny very embarrassed but Rachel thought it was funny.

Mr. Boss never remembers Rachel's name and ends up calling her Raquel

Occasionally, whenever a member of Sector V doesn't feel like doing something (mainly #3), they'll swap themselevs out for their negative version just because. Usually, most operatives don't maintain eye contact or know Sector V personally enough to tell so it actuslly ends up working most of the time.

Intergalactic operatives choose human disguises based on what they find beautiful.

[khaleesiofalicante]

just a little vent

I saw someone say you cant be South Asian and declare yourself British, as its a traitor. (They werent joking which seemed like they were)

Im south asian but born in the UK i do call myself British like most people I know do or they call themselves either Asian, or English. They choose whatever they identify themselevs with.

I understand what the trauma the British did when they left my great grandparents birth home.

(We dont learn much about the British Empire in secondary education)

Anyone else from scotland, wales and Ireland were taught different from what we were taught in school.

I always wondered what other countries were taught about the British?

((Hate it here))

Two things here.

My close friend is a history teacher in London (she is Sri Lankan) and we got to talking about how the kids there barely learn about the British empire and the colonization. Like we (in each country) learn so much about what happened to our countries when we won the British role and how it changed us for better or worse (mostly worse). it’s blowing that the kids in the UK don’t learn this. But not surprising.

The other thing is a lot of people confuse nationality with race. Your nationality is British. Your race (or ethnicity in some cultures) is South Asian (or specially Indian, Sri Lankan etc). You can be both. You can choose the one you identify with. There is nothing wrong with it. People who tell other people who they should identify are fucking weird 🙃

DAVE: like the square one of juice

ROSE: Yes, tha's the POINT!

ROSE: Apples are stalartingly difficulf to reproduce.

ROSE: We take for granned our ability to take idealized intsances ofeven quie comlicated objects and conshure them from the void.

ROSE: But compalexity implies a heavilly recombinatife nature.. So.. so many things are synesthized from a series of mushh simpler ideas!

ROSE: To those ennities capable of, of conceshualization and absraction, an apple is as closed to being a noshushnally irredushible object as it gets....

ROSE: **Irr, ed, ducible.

ROSE: Tell me, hoch shot, what ideas would you combide to make and apple?

DAVE: uh

ROSE: Exaaalley/.

ROSE: Thusis why apples are sush indivisible symbols, when it comes to thefield of ideas and their reducshunistHIC!!!!! reductionishtic essence from the perispective of humans in paticular.

ROSE: Both from a stantpoint of cultrulal and mytholurgical singificence,, and from a pratical one a swell, if you happen to fine yourself acshualy trying to ENGINEEEer one.

ROSE: Why do you thing, HIC!!! Why do you think Adam mand Eve were punished for biting in to one??

ROSE: They attemped to pentetrate an indivisible unit, uf fundamenetal knowledge. To consume the interior of a thought whish cantot be reduced any further.

ROSE: This knowleshe was for BIDDEN..! Hic. So humanity was forever bandished to live in sin, and, hass strive ever sinse to redeem isself from the hubrinse of this innallectual foily.

ROSE: Hahaha! , Foily.

ROSE: *FOLLY. :)

ROSE: Or what about, the tale of Isaac Newdon under the tree?? He was BONKED on the head by an apple.

ROSE: Not reallyan apple though... an atomic idea. An emlemental unit of inspripation itself, id clocked him right on then noggin.

ROSE: And this indivisible notion colliding with hish awareness, much like.. . a high speed partical fired to create a nuculear chain reacation, jarred from the void a more profund unnerstand, HIC, ing of the intrinsic nature of nothiness. Thatis,. Gravivitation.

ROSE: Of course thess stories are acutually bullshit. They didn't happen in realaity. But thef act that they'rare bullshit makes them more inshresting.

ROSE: Men have crefted many stories that are bullshit out of symbols risen from the abyss of coinsciousness withou necesharily knowing whath e fuck they were doing or saying, as they flounered around for some truth.

ROSE: Bust in spite of themseleves they would for howefer briefly cross through a ray of light regarless. Becuss of the sbymbols. Dave.. The symbols hol dall the power.

DAVE: well shit

DAVE: looks like i wandered into a really weird uncharted side of town tonight

DAVE: its called the drunk rose district

DAVE: and i am scared out of my fucking mind

Blu your speaking straight FACTS on the demonization/ostracization of masculinity in the queer community! Like I was talking to my brother about this ( him a gay man and me a bi women) about how he wishes there was more queer men that leaned into masculinity bc while he has no problem dating/getting to know effeminate men he prefers the masculine men. While he was apologizing for sounding harsh about his feeling, I was like no I totally understand bc a drag queen that I like put it best "I am gay man. Meaning I like men and their features. I like deep voices, big body, hair everywhere." Like when I was getting to know the queer community more in my teens I was finding it weird/off how the gay male community would want their ideal men to be that stereotypical man but anybody they deemed not fckable with those features they would ostracized.

Even in the Sapphic community leaning to much into masculinity ostracized the Sapphic that embraced it and they'll be accused of wanting to be a man or accused of betraying Sapphic women for leaning away from the feminity their attracted too. Like doing this demonization damages the community because 1.) It makes it harder for those ignorant of themseleves/on their journey to understand themselves TO UNDERSTAND themselves bc the features/actions that they have are hated by a community they thought was opened (as u said.) 2.) Ostracizes those who do know themselves and want community ( AS U SAID!) 3.) Kills hope in that their are no positive examples of healthy masculinity so those attracted to it give up on finding a healthy and positive partner who is masculine or give up on the idea they themselves can be queer and engage in healthy masculinity.

Going back to the talk with my brother, I told him I'm like him in that I like my men to look like men too. While my bisexuality has me attracted to people with gender presentation fuckery, I also do like it when a person of that gender presents their stereotypical gender BECAUSE IM ATTRACTED TO MEN AND WOMEN AND I SHOULD LIKE AND APPRECIATE THEIR FEATURES BC THATS WHAT IM ATTRACTED TOO!!!

Like when I see TF2 fanart of the mercs with body hair and body fat/heftiness I go 😍🫦😝💦😜😍👀🫦🤪 bc here are some hot men that look like MEN. ( I treasure the fanart that has Scout having body hair and muscle bc 1.) He a full grown adult not a twink high-schooler 2.) Mfer can go 1 on 1 with someone like Heavy [might not always win but there are chances he can win- looks at his meet the... video], it's his job to fight other beefed up guys, and have you seen how thick/muscled up baseball players can get.) Bc even in fanart, not just TF2 fanart, men are depicted in a narrow ideal of masculinity where they are not allowed to have masculine features which to me makes it artificial. And that something real is the masculinity the community keeps denying/gatekeep in real life and online.

I'm gonna rustle some feathers. In EVERY queer environment I've ever been in, the only way I've ever gotten the vibe that it's ok for a man to be a man is if he's a girl. If you're too tall, too bearded, too hairy, too fat, too bald, too deep a voice, too masculine in presentation, you're irredeemable—god forbid you LIKE how testosterone has changed your body. You are the monster in their fairy tales. You have to prove yourself as "not like other men" somehow because if you're a man and you like men, that's not queer enough. If you're a trans man who is too masculine or passes too well, you're betraying your community somehow, or your birth sex. Fuck your dysphoria, we'll only feel comfortable with your presence if you walk in tits out in a miniskirt, ~flambouyantly GNC~, and even THEN we'll make comments about how your masculinity makes us uncomfortable because you still look too male.

And if you're a bisexual man? Hell you might as well be straight. Won't even give you the decency of calling you an ally—nah, mate, you're an invader. Iunno what the B stands for.

[daisy-has-too-many-wives]

all practically ran from teh door, yelling rushed thank you’s at him. Crowley laughed, laving enjoyed that class, as for more than half of it, Him and his year 13’s were having a discussion on what they though angels would look like to be able to survive as high up as they suppossedly did. They had all decided on very large oxygen tanks. Crowley made his way through the courtyard of the school, pausing at the staffroom for Pepper, who he was taking out for lunch, just like they did every second wednesday. “Crowley!” pepper said, as she walked alongside him “Are you coming to Samaels with Adam and i?” Crowely groaned, running a hand through his long hair, “ugh- is hastur going?” “Nope” pepper replied, sitting herslf down in the passenger seat of crowley’s car. “I guess i am going then, arn’t i” Pepper nodded, resting her feet on the dashboard “where to today, anthony?” The two decided on a classic. A small cafe, unbeknownst to almost all of the civilians, named ‘Apple and Serpent’ Crowley ordered his usual, a large black coffee, and pepper ordered a milkshake. “You’re a child”  crowley laughed as their waiter brang the order to tehir table “At least i  have good taste. Who drinks a black coffee at 1 in the afternoon?” “Me, that’s who you cheeky-” “Laungage!” pepper snorted, “so- mr ‘ive got such a good coffee selection-” (crowley rolled his eyes at her. Hard. she just smirked.) “what do you think of the new teacher at sameals?” “What do i think of him?” crowley asked, raising an eyebrow “pepper, i havent even met this man” “He is your type though” “How do you know my type? I dont even have a type, pepper” “Yes-yes you do” she told him “you are the classic Black cat. You eiether need a golden reteiver or an orange cat” “Are- pepper are you telling me you want me to buy another pet? I have 2 dogs alr-” Pepper groaned, loudly “you need to- my god anthony you are a boomer” “Augh” he said, faking offence “i am Not I thank you very much,  i was born in 1990!” “Old” Crowley rolled his eyes again “why do i need a labrador and a hamster?” “You are deaf as well, then” “Why, pepper, enlighten me” A black cat, pepper explained to him, as tehy left the cafe, adn on their drive back to school, was someone who kept to themselevs, was a ‘loner’ and typically wore black clothing. Crowley saw how that waas him. A golden retreiver, was ‘the happiest person in the world’ pepper said. ‘Always happy, always active, optimist’ crowley definetly wass not that. And apparently a orange cat was just a pshyco. Pepper told him, that poeple online often ship what’s called a black cat x golden retrevier, where one person is ‘goth’ and the other is ‘very cheery’; and what not. Crowley was impartial to this idea, not really ahving tha much of an opinion on it, since the only relationship he had ever been in was with someone he didnt even know what happened to them. And that was when he was 18, and just figuring out that he was gay, genderfluid and wanted to be a teacher, not an artist. Once the school day had finally come to an end, crowley dragged himself home, and changed into his work clothes, a plain black shirt and pants. Yes, he had a part time job, but he felt he needed to support his neice Angel as she started law school as sa favour for his older sister, Daisy who had helped him more time than he could count. So, crowley had become a chef. He had worked up his ranks, and was now head chef at a local sushi restaurant ‘家’ or ‘Home’ in english. And sometimes, he worked the till if business was slow.  Luckily, the sushi place was moderately busy on teh best days, so most of the time it was him talking with his colleagues and teh regulars. His coworker, Abby, was the only otehr one on tonight as the shop was slow, and they both had the late night shift. The bell tinkled as their last scheduled regular entered to shop “hey azira” crowley said, from behind the till. Their regular, and crowley’s favourite, Mr. Azira fell entered the shop, wearing the same matching beige waistcoat suit and brown shoes that he wore day in, day out

I LOVE THIS AAAA

Hi I've been seeing you talk abt it a lot and it's piqued my interest- what's Caligula effect?

Oh hey i'm glad i picked your interest. Caligula Effect is a videogame from 2016 that got a remake in 2018 Caligula Effect Overdose, this is the one you should go with as is the most complete. I got interested in it because Takuya Yamanaka, the writer in Milgram directed the game, Deco27 also worked as one of the composers for the game, which i think is how they met. There's also a second game Caligula Effect 2 which Yamanaka was more involved with as he was diector, producer and main writer of the game.

As for the plot of the game, it's about this virtual world called Mobius where people can go to escape the real world. In this world everyone becomes a high school student and doesn't age, and all their wishes become reality (well kind of). This world was created by a virtuadoll (basically just a vocaloid) called µ (basically this world's hatsune miku) who made this place to help people who were hurt by the real world. There's this group of students who call themseleves the Go-Home Club who realized this world is fake and want to find a way to go back to the real world. On the opposite side there's also the Ostinato Musicians, a group of people who work with µ in order to stop the Go-Home Club because they don't want anyone to escape.

You as the main character start the game with the club but can join the musicians later as well, then the game will have segments where you play as the president of the club or as a musician and you can have all those characters as party members and get to know the characters through their Character Scenarios, which are basically like the social links from Persona but a little less complicated. These scenarios also have a lot of influence on each other and even the main story in the case of two characters.

I haven't finished the playthrough i'm watching yet but i do like it so far, though it does start very slow imo i didn't really get that invested until the fourth dungeon. I will say though the game discusses heavy topics, but i do want to mention two things that can definetely stop someone from enjoying the game. First, there is a canon trans character as part of the musicians, and i think the way she's treated in the main story is not...very good? First off because the way you find out she is trans is because she's outed by someone from the main party during her dungeon, and after this many of the characters misgender her and make transphobic comments about her (even WAY after her dungeon's done), which i do think at least during her dungeon this was intentional in order to portray her hardships (because honestly these characters can be REAL assholes), but then they make jokes about her and even among the musicians she is STILL treated badly by the others and it's just tiring, especially because her character scenario IS genuinely really good and actually addresses many of these things that the main story does but you don't really get to see these things being properly talked about in the main story. I haven't finished the game tho and i think there's a few things later that will more properly address this aspect of her but it can be very uncomfortable. Second thing is that one of the musicians is...a creep, his name is a pun on the pronunciation of the word "stalk" and his dungeon is a public bathhouse. I think you can get where i'm going with this this. His whole thing is that he's a pervert and likes to peep on other women and you see him doing this multiple times during his dungeon. Anyways, as with all the musicians you can interact with him after his dungeon and do his scenario and all that, which i hate because he's still the same afterwards, i already didn't like him when he was first introduced, i thought hey maybe his scenario will show me something interesting, haha no learning more about him and how he was in the real world made me hate him even more. Even if some of the things discussed in his scenario were interesting i don't care, he's gross and creepy and he should be in jail like ayana said. Both of these characters are the bosses in the second and third dungeon, which is why i said the beggining can be hard to get into.

Aside from that, the soundtrack is awesome, and i do like most of the characters, i haven't finished it yet so obviously i still don't know how everything will end but i have been enjoying it. It's also very fun to find some similar themes to the ones in milgram. If you're interested in it i can link you to a playthrough of the game if you want, let me know!!

OMG AIAI I WENT TO WORK BC I CALLED IN BUT THEY PUT ME IN FRONT CASH ( GEN DEPT, IM USUALLY IN BEAUTY ) AND THE WAY MY PATIENCE AND ATTITUDE POPPED OUT

so we’re not doing refunds bc it crashes our computers and it’s busy so no refunds until the 27 and this customer comes back and was like “hey lemme refund this I bought it two minutes ago pharmacy said this is the wrong one i want this one” so I tell him we can’t do it and explain why and he CUSSES AT ME. im like standing there like tilting my head 🧍🏻‍♀️🤨 you can see I was amused and unimpressed yk that look that’s like you fr thinking ‘did this bitch cuss at me?’

so i rudely cut him off and told him AGAIN WHY WE CANT AND HOW UNFORTUNATE IT IS WE CANT REFUND and basically told him “if pharmacy said they can refund it and then i suggest you can go back to them to help you.” and he walked away saying how unacceptable it is bc i was not gonna take shit from customers I would literally tell them professionally to go fuck themseleves. I told my assistant manager what happened and she’s like uhhh try not to do it again. he came back five minutes and apologized to me for being a bitch 😂💀

dear lord 😭 working in retail is such a pain bc of customers like this one 💀 it’s not like you’re the one to make those decisions you’re simply following the set policy why do they have to take it out on you 😭

Re: but what can I do?

I have come to the conclusion that most activism (or other "doing stuff") that comes from a sense of obligation is fundamentally toxic, and the healthiest forms of doing-stuff come from self-interest or something close to self-interest, like wanting people in your community to be OK.

People who want to "save" sex workers tend to get things horribly wrong, tend to have dramatically different goals from when sex workers themselves organize.

People who are doing things for others either go too far in and get burnt out, or (more often) don't go in far enough or pull out the moment things get messy.

Anyhow. So. If you want to "do something" appropriately and sustainably, don't start with your psychological need to feel like you're contributing. Start with what the need is and whether you can meet it. And start with yourself and go out.

Sometimes I get hungry or otherwise notice I haven't eaten in a while. When that happens and I eat, I am doing something to make my personal world better. (Ditto for chronic illness related self care, getting enough social interaction, getting enough rest, doing my PT so my back doesn't hurt when I wake up in the morning, etc.) Same for when I do a thing purely for pleasure. There's a need, or an opportunity for joy, can I meet it?

When I ask my partner how his day went, I am finding a need/opportunity for making his life better, and meeting it. Same for when I ask my mom how her golf game went. I don't care about golf, but she does and I care about her. (When I can ask about something I do care about, I am doing a thing for two people.)

When I pick up litter in my neighborhood, I am finding a need/opportunity for making my community's life better, and taking care of it. Ditto for contributing when someone says they need money, online or in person. Ditto for when I used to do Food Not Bombs and ride in Critical Mass. Ditto for when I'm able to get my act together enough to call a politician or send an email (not as often as I would like.)

For people who have had jobs, you know the work that needs to be done and the hours you're supposed to be working don't always line up nicely, it's the same for things you don't get paid for that need to be done. Sometimes there's nothing; sometimes there's more than you can do. It's not about whether you feel a need to contribute, it's about what's there.

And the thing is, what individual people need to take care of themseleves for themselves is more or less the same, but the bigger the group is the more likely people are to end up specializing and doing one or a few things a lot. Some people give blood as often as they can. Some pick up litter. Some do the jail support. Some do things that have a high risk of getting them arrested. Some are naturals at fundraising, or art or messaging, some can learn, some want nothing to do with that. What people are willing and able to do varies SO MUCH, which is fine because the things the world needs varies so much.

And this isn't expressly political, but there's always always always a need for caring and social labor. For someone to be the person who gets their friend group together. For someone to be the person who provides childcare so the moms can participate in the organizing meetings. For someone to be the person who makes sure the person with the broken leg is getting their groceries and the person with the chronic illness gets driven to their medical appointments. For someone to be the person who makes sure the old lady whose family all lives out of state (or who doesn't have a family, which is especially often the case with queer people) has someone to talk to. It's not less important just because people who aren't anarchists do it too. (It's not less impotent because it doesn't by itself challenge systems of oppression, for a few different reasons but in part because even in a perfect world that is work that needs to be done, and in part because improving the world isn't the only work that needs to be done, maintaining the world/the people in the world is work that needs to be done too.)
