#SLAMS MY DOOR SHUT

[takami-takami]

Learning about domesticated bird mating habits. How they get hormonal if you let them nest and they start wanting babies, so you have to remove cozy spaces from their enclosure when they're in mated pairs.

You already know where my mind is going.

Keigo being hesitant about moving in together, let alone sharing a room. With you. He doesn't think he could stand it. He'd convince himself it's a good idea after copious amounts of logical leaps. Surely he has enough self control... He's a man, not a fucking animal, surely he can keep—

When Keigo opens his bedroom door to find you rearranging the furniture, pushing your shared bed against the corner right by the window, adorned by new bedsheets in your favorite color. He turns tail right then, waltzing right back into the living room to take some deep breaths.

You're so cute. You're so adorable, primping a little nest for the two of you. You're so fuckable I mean breedable I mean please don't make him pull out I mean FUCK. He can't even look at you.

Sorry. The thought of Keigo seeing a nest and burrowing in the pillows and popping a half chub and whining about wanting babies like he's fucking ovulating or something makes me unwell I'm fucking SORRY, OKAY!?

Look at the Piggybank

Look at the Piggybank!

It's shaped like Raon!!!

....this must mean Hong and Ohn's piggbanks are cat shaped with their respective colors, right?

-thinks back to the Top Whips Test on the Wind Island where only the kids piggybanks were left-

...That scene is so much more devastating now

@cupcakeshakesnake I am going through supreme art block right now but I can't get this out of my head. Anyway I'm sure Lurien is super duper normal about this.

I am not going to make rent this month. Mid-November I was laid off early from my main source of income while I attempted to work at another office, and then said office dumped me on my ass for another, "better" new hire, screwing me over and leaving me with only my second (now only) job, a grocery store position that only gives me 30 hours a week and doesn't pay enough even if I WERE to work full time.

I've been scrambling to find another second job to replace my main income, but to be frank, no one is hiring. I've put in at LEAST 30 applications in the past week and a half, only three of them have reached out for interviews, and ALL THREE of them fucking ghosted me after the interview. No rejection notice, no call, just radio silence. I don't know what I'm going to do. At this point I'm filling out every single job application I can see out of sheer desperation that one out of a hundred of them will even bother to respond to me.

Until then, I'm asking for help to keep a roof under my head until someone hires me and I can work two jobs again. Please donate anything you can IF you can because there's no hope in sight for me until someone fucking hires me and the stress of it is making me sick.

post-canon samaichi, once they move in together their wardrobes become so grossly intermingled that neither of them go a day without wearing something that belongs to the other. samatoki often goes out in ichiro's hoodies, ichiro sometimes borrows samatoki's boots. samatoki wears some of ichiro's rings every now and then, and ichiro with his repierced ears can always borrow whatever he wants from samatoki's collection

so it's only a matter of time before they start going out with each other's mics, not caring which one they grab on their way out the door. soon enough samatoki with ichiro's speakers and ichiro with samatoki's big fucking coffin become common sights around yokohama

(and imagine if the special abilities are tied to the mic and not the rapper. imagine you're some petty criminal who's spent weeks hyping yourself up, mentally preparing yourself to face samatoki's counter blow, only for samatoki to send you blasting off like team rocket with ichiro's critical blow)

i can’t imagine how violating having your work fed into ai felt and the more I’ve thought about it today the more it disturbs me. you’ve put so much wonderful stuff into this fandom and it should be treated with respect.

🫂 if you want them. i’m truly sorry that happened.

Honestly I went through a lot of emotions, and I think in the moment I was mostly in shock because... they came in with like... excitement? A "hey! :D I really love what you make so I wanted to make you something with your ship! I used AI to make it!" kind of a moment and I just stared at the messages as they kept going

The only reason why I didn't purge my stuff back then was the fact that the longer they went on, the more they started to double down without me even saying a word (or them even knowing I had seen the messages), because they could see for themselves how messed up it was. And they concluded something like "so maybe this could be used as a kind of a prompt". Which was a relatively easy footing for me as well when I eventually did type back, because... I genuinely didn't get ill intention vibes from the person, and they were self-aware enough to see how it must've felt like without me having to explain it

But still. Like the one question in my mind was "if you like it so much, then why are you doing this to it?"

I know that some people are very insecure about their English skills (which is also why they sometimes comment in their native language instead of English; and I've thought about replying in my own), or creative abilities in general, which... like that I DO GET. That I understand. I've been there. I am still there. That's what learning new skills and developing them feels like. But... I don't mind the typos or incorrect grammar or structural issues or whatever, just don't... bastardize my writing.

Because it's like... I knit a shirt. You take the shirt and say you like it a lot. You start pulling the threads apart and stick it into a sewing machine to make a franken shirt, and hand it back with "it's better now! I used a machine to fix it!" Which will inevitably make me feel like whatever time and effort I put into my craft, the development of the shirt (or story) and the pattern (the characters) actually isn't good. And if you want a sweater that's made of plastic "yarn" and can barely survive two turns in a washing machine, you can go buy one. Go ahead, I can't exactly stop you, but plastic shirts (no matter how fluffy) won't keep you warm like real wool.

yeah... that was not a good day

But thanks for the hugs, they're very much appreciated

It's 9pm and Dave comes back with chicken. And he's not above brotherly antics :) . Thus, he slams open his sisters door with the flat of his palm and stands menacingly in silence. Karkat peeks inside waiting to get some food and wondering why his boyfriend is being a idiot, he just wants to eat some succulent fried sqawkbeast.

Art tips appreciated, I'm still learning and would like guidance 👍 (how to better use Ibispaint especially)

Or y'know send me tutorial vids thx

URGENT ARTIST QUESTION !!!!!!

YOU REMEMBER THAT PRINGLES COWBOY HAT POST??? I NEED IT BUT CAN'T FIND IT AND I CAN REMEMBER YOU REBLOGGING IT OR USING IT---

THE COWBOY SPRINGTRAP???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

IT'S HERE IT'S HERE IT'S HERE I HOPE THIS IS THE ONE YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT ?????????????

[smimon]

ok whatever i am sick so i can say whatever i want

It's not easy to start a conversation and my personal pet peeve is when I bring up some piece of trivia or some speculation regarding a thing that I know my friend is passionate about, and the friend says “yeah I already know about it” and nothing else. because not only are they rejecting an opportunity to talk to me, it also feels like I lost at a game I didn't even know the rules of :(

There are so many other possible replies that are still true but don't sound so degrading, like “that's so cool” or “I think that it could go like this...” or just repeating the opinion you told your other friends before. God it's all pointless I need a year long break

....Y'all.... I am scared and threatened by a creepy ass bug downstairs. It kept evading my chancla like it's a Soulsborne boss. What am I gonna dooooooo? I need my laundry from the basement!! 😩😩😩

[booksooks]

guys i'm wearing the coolest outfit rn but it's ruined by my fucking thumb

[eldritchmochi]

forgot my cane in my buddy's car when he dropped me off last night which a) damnit but also b) ..... whoops new kink

the inherent eroticism of someone else handling my cane, this extension of my body that is both so visible and yet so intimate. sure, its pretty common for strangers to "help" me by picking my cane up when i drop it, but that is very much a thing done out of pity, not something kind or fond or understanding of the importance of my cane

and im really glad i had that realization to a *picture* because i think i woulda absolutely horny blue screened if i had opened the door cold to seeing this dude, who is aggressively my type and also unbelievably kind, standing there leaning on *my* cane like he had every right to

[jaynovz]

Anyway the world is full of opportunity, full of new ppl who will love you and treat you the way you deserve, with care and respect and understanding. Ppl who will actually Put In Some Fucking Work.

And then you'll realize that the last person was giving you mere crumbs of effort, that you were starving

Moving on from relationships is scary, especially if you put in so SO much investment. and it aches, it pulls, it itches. it feels like your personal circle will soon be whittled down to nothing. but it's not, it won't, there's time. the world is big and you have more time than you think to find those connections.

Just, keep your arms open
