ace 🤝 robin, growing up feeling unwanted and unloved, told they should be dead and didn’t deserve life, constantly sold out by the people around them, learning that in order to survive they had to harden themselves to the world around them, until they find the family who would love them unconditionally and reminded them how much they love life and want to continue living

I just got off the phone with my brother’s friend and I want to share something about the conversation we had real quick. If you don’t wanna listen to me talk about how I feel as a creative, then scroll on, I won’t be offended. I just want to toss this out in the ether.

I usually keep the things I create to myself. There’s a running joke in my family about how I spend so much time writing but they never see any of it. And it’s because I never feel more vulnerable than I do when I write or on occasion draw.

Okay, so. The Ghost art I did last week. I showed my brother, because he’s a CoD fan and I thought he’d appreciate it. He asked for permission to show his friends, and I said that was okay as long as they kept it close.

And today, one of his friends reached out to me to talk about it. He said it was, and I quote, “very epic” and I thanked him. Then, without me having to say anything, he told me it must not be easy to put your work of full display, even to friends and family (I didn’t tell him it’s so much harder to show people I know than people I don’t).

He could tell how relieved I was to be understood and allowed me to explain. I told him that, for me personally, when I create something, it’s a part of me. And he caught on, saying that I must hope more for good reactions because it’s a part of me.

Exactly. It’s like giving someone the power to hurt me and hoping they won’t. Like if I were asked what part of me the drawing of Ghost is, I would have an answer, but it wouldn’t be easy to admit to someone who knows the me I am when I’m perceived bodily. Same way it isn’t easy to show the drawing, because you might not be able to see what part of me it is, but I can. It’s an intentional vulnerability, but even knowing and being braced for it, doesn’t always make it easier.

Then he asked if the reward outweighs the risk. And I had to tell him that, yeah, sometimes it does. Sometimes it’s enough that someone will look at something I’ve made and like it—like a part of me without me having to say that it is, to point out which part. That little glimpse of acceptance is what’s the light at the end of the tunnel, and some days it’s enough.

I also think that all the "um okay knives out & glass onion were good. Wrap it up now" posts are so funny. You're tripping if you think there's not going to be at least five Benoit Blanc films lol

Not socialist in a “I won’t have to work” type of way but socialist in a “I’ll still be working but I won’t be worried I won’t make the rent” type of way. In a “billions won’t be hoarded by one person” type of way. In a “janitors, fast-food workers, child care workers, preschool teachers, hotel clerks, personal care and home health aides, and grocery store cashiers, will live comfortably” type of way. In a “the sick and elderly will be cared for” type of way. In a “no child should work” type of way.

Christmas as a cultural icon is starting to get really dystopian in a climate sense, december has historically been a time of year in which there would be snow in a significant portion of europe and north america, and the fact that its not even icy this time of year and all the christmas songs and decorations reference a time of year that will likely never exist in the same way again in my life time is so strange.

y’all just— thinking about how excited Stanley must have been to host the twins— Alex says he smokes cigars but he doesn’t smoke once in the show— has a beer gut but he only drinks sodas in front of the kids— doesn’t swear when they’re around which must have taken INCREDIBLE effort— Stanley Pines, known crook, buying pancake mix at the supermarket and many bottles of syrup— learning to cook basic healthy meals and burning so many of them before he gets it right— buying new sheets, new mattresses— avoiding bunk beds because it reminds him of Ford— looking at the attic room he made wondering “is this enough will they like me”— trying to act aloof at the bus stop so he doesn’t betray the fact that he was there hours early— watching them goof around and thinking of New Jersey beaches— then the first night they’re there, he watches them debate running away and only stay because Mabel shook a magic 8 ball. That must have kept him awake all night.
