#and IT IS NORMAL

Bit of a vent:

Tw: amatonormativity

Just right now I had a bit of a frustrating conversation with some adults and I am feeling slightly emotional :l

Some of my mom’s friends came over to have a party and they were talking about someone’s daughter starting to really like cooking, and they joked that she was cooking for her boyfriend (she doesn’t have one) and I was listening next to them, so I said

“I don’t understand, why do people have to cook for someone else,”

And one guy replied with

“It’s because you don’t have a boyfriend yet,” (I am very closeted irl, so I identify as a cis straight girl to him)

And I was ever so slightly triggered by that, so I continued to argue with the guy, which was a big ass mistake, because now I feel a bit like shit,

But anyways I responded with

“Why do I have to have a boyfriend anyways? What if I never get a partner in the future?”

And my mom who was also listening piped up, said something along the lines of

“When I was 19 I also thought like that, but I met your dad and I changed my mind,” some shit like that,

And the other guy chimed in

“You’ll want to get a boyfriend when you’re older, just you wait”

And now I feel a bit mad. :(

Of course, there is no way I feel angry just because of some stupid chat, but it really is a problem that I normally have this conversation with some adults. The main two things are

Adults (mostly parents) not taking the things teens an kids say seriously, and

Amatonormativity

OH MY GOD FUCK AMATONORMATIVITY

If someone says they ain’t going to fucking date anyone, let them BEEEEE

I���ve overheard conversations where people insult other people for being single or have never dated anyone in their lives before

I’ve had conversations with my mother about me not wanting to have a partner in the future, and her just brushing it off, saying either, “You’ll change your mind one day”, Or “You are just young, your hormones haven’t kicked in”, Or , “Wait till you find someone you like”

I’ve listened to people say how there is ALWAYS that other-half, or special someone, or forever soulmate or WHATEVER THE FUCK, and I’ve had enough.

PLEASE.

STOP.

Some people just AREN’T GOING TO HAVE A PARTNER FOR LIFE.

ITS NORMAL.

LET ALL OF US BE ARO AT PEACE.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH :(

Fuck amatonormativity.

what if your doppelgänger wasn’t evil it was just a person. what if your doppelgänger wasn’t trying to replace you it was just trying to learn to be a person and you were the best model it had. what if your doppelgänger looked at you with your eyes and said with your voice that it just wanted to be loved. what then.

im a fucking sucker for the “character gets so badly injured that they can’t think clearly and start calling for help in a distressingly vulnerable way.” characters who start using nicknames for their friends they haven’t used since they were kids. characters who start begging for their brother they haven’t seen in years to be there. characters who would usually use their parents’ names or call them mother/father/etc crying out mama when they go down. u understand.

"can we normalize-" NO!!!!!! we do not need to expand whats considered normal!!! we need to teach people to stop reacting judgmentally when encountering something new and weird!!!! things dont need to be normal to be respected!!!!!!!!!!

Rumour has it, although the King of Ithaca had returned to his shores, his throne remained empty for the better part of a year.

i love my cat but he is very fond of trickery

I don't think that Viktor swears often but I really like that people sometimes write him swearing in Czech. Also I think that it was a little traumatic for Jayce when he heard Viktor swear for the first time.

I just had to draw it.

The thing is that czech swearing often contains more than one word. The bigger fuked up, the longer you swear. And it's…let's say…very rich xd

I was thinking about translating it but it's imposible
