Dear tumblr,
Ngl today was kinda ass. Pa and Ma got mad at me and were jst being total dicks all day. Ma also kept on pointing out a lot of my insecurities which lowkey made me feel really shitty abt myself but whatever things could be worse ig. I wanted to text Mari n stuff today too but I didn’t wanna annoying him. If I’m being honest I’d say that I’ve been a little too clingy lately and I feel like I should lay that off…idk tho. Like I wanna talk to him and I wanna not seem like an ass but at the same time like he’s busy and shit and sometimes I might not get a respond so idk why I even try. It’s not like I’m not in love anymore I just feel kinda tired. Ion know things have just been really boring lately soooo. Whatever it is tho I just don’t wanna make the same mistakes and be distant like how I was with Tyler. I think I learned a lot from that relationship and I’m applying it to this one but idk if im doing something wrong
#sophias tumblr diary 2024#idk#ive just been kinda out of it lately#like i wanna hang / talk but like#at the same time im like actually being realistic and like#now im kinda accepting the fact that im not gonna get a fast reply or whatever#idk why i even expect one#ik ppl have boundaries and shit#i don’t wanna cross any so ig ill jst lay shit back and like#ig wait for him to talk#i feel like shit tho#it just doesn’t feel right to me#something about it makes me feel sort#idk the word#guilty?

I find it so ironically funny when hardcore Debbie defenders use the defense that she was just a victimised teenage girl (agreed) and then proceed to slander Fiona and express their hatred for her character and lack of sympathy
as if being an adult magically absolves an individual of the horrifying trauma that precedes them and screws up their mentality and actions
funnily enough these people get mad at others for "expecting Debbie to be an innocent angel and hating on her for acting out as a result of trauma" (also agreed, debbie does deserve more sympathy, she can't be expected to grow up to be a perfect saint when she's been through so much) yet seem to hold Fiona to the same unattainable standards and put her on a pedestal as if she wasnt a child that was forced to intensely grow up while never actually being raised
like lets put this into perspective and remember that fiona grew up surrounded by corrupt morals and insanely screwed up behaviour yet still emerged as messed up, yes, but surprisingly good considering the situation she was in??? she had to navigate basic things such as morals and being a good, responsible person on her own. imagine how difficult it must be to lead a bunch of kids, including yourself, with no previous role model or good example of your own to follow. most of the time, she always tried to do what she thought was best and would have the most desirable outcome
#listen a lot of the time debbie defenders make good points#is debbie my favourite? no but she does deserve more sympathy#im really unserious on here and ive made some dumb meaningless jokes but at the heart of it i have sympathy for debbie#so no its not the debbie defense i have an issue with#its the way these people claim to be#1 understanders of shameless women and their complexity#top defenders#including of the women who have said and done worse than/just as bad as fiona#and then proceed to spew all this vitriolic lack of sympathy regarding fionas character#they always talk about fiona making the choice to be their legal guardian#as if the situation wasnt complex and 1) she felt pushed into an inescapable corner#2) that doesnt change the fact that she'd have strong feelings about her baby sister choosing to have a whole baby???#she claimed legal guardianship over HER siblings she did not foresee any other children being added to the mix#so yes she went about it harshly at times when she made debbie raise franny independently#but its not surprising considering her exhausted life?? her history as a TEENAGE GIRL and CHILD of raising kids???#there are actual mothers who'd be worse about this situation and fiona wasnt trying to be nasty#it was tough love and it could've been shown in better ways#and im not putting all the blame on debbie cause she was so young and vulnerable#but at the end of the day she made a choice and fiona was trying to help her understand the importance of consequences to your choice#and navigating adulthood when you choose to behave like one#of course debbie was often put in situations where she felt like she had to be a grown up and that is not her fault#but its not fionas either. theyre all just trying to survive. and fiona tried her damn hardest to preserve debbies childhood#so how do you think she'll react realistically to the whiplash of debbie purposefully getting pregnant#ultimately theres a lot of complexity and flaws and nuance to these situations and i find it weird when people criticise#others for putting so much blame on debbie#and then do the same to fiona as if shes not a victimised product of her environment too#you can show sympathy to debbie while understanding Fiona too and being critical in a mature#nuanced way#im not being a hater to anyone btw im just sharing some thoughts and letting it out. all im saying is#most of the shameless women deserve sympathy and understanding and its strange to deny fiona of that

rewatching she-ra again while I draw and and and omfg
In S5 when Wrong Hordak (never not funny) asks Entrapta about her "facial tic" and she IMMEDIATELY just explains to him what it is - a wink - what it's called and how it's used and THEN gives him encouragement to try it out so he understands it better and feels more confident??
My. Fucking. Heart. neurodivergent ppl looking out for neurodivergent ppl and showcasing EXACTLY how to just not be a dick to people who don't get social cues. It's not our fault. It's not personal. It's not us trying to be difficult. We just don't get it. Explain it, give an example, a safe place to practice it and boom, logged and loaded.
#she ra and the princesses of power#spop#things that make me feel feral in a good way : entrapta#gods i adore her#her smile in the opening credits make me giddy and grin EVERY single time I see it and ive seen it literally hundreds of times haha#I think the way entrapta is “treated” is actually really well done cuz it's realistic and the payoff is earned#they have to learn to understand her and she also has to learn how to not step on feelings as much#both parties do bad things and work towards one another#ya know? Like im glad she's like... not some innocent flower who can do no harm#girls harmed haha girls harmed a LOT in fact#and in many ways the others are justified in being frustrated with her#and the resolution that's 90% just communication issues is SO GOODDDDDD#cuz it's NEVER been that Entrapta just doesn't care - she does! She has almost 0 tools to express that care and walls herself off instead#and the princess' help her break down those walls and build doors and windows#one painful brick at a time#GIRL same

how to write vent post title that does not come off as self-pitying and or accusatory (because it's NOT !)
#sorry tumblr is like a diary to me idk what i'll do w this blog after i (sigh) inevitably move on#either way#im convinced everyone hates me again :3 but realistically no one cares about me even enough to hate me im just stupid and self centred 💔#if anything me TYPING these posts is actuvely turning people against me#again with the assumptions that people care enough to read these 😭 fhskfbhsjfkg#i hate that i care so much what people online think of me cuz irl it's like. whatever#but here there are so many cool people who i admire and would love to be friends with im always hyperparanoid of everything i do#and still i manage to overstep and come off as annoying#like obvs you're allowed to hate me even if you're someone i look up to like that's your perogative#but i hate worrying about IF anyone hates me#oughgh this is easier irl because usually people send off pretty clear signals if they dont like you#but online (esp with how prickly this fandom is) i don't know whether im being insecure and reading into things or whether people just don't#like me (which again is fine i would just rather know if anyone gets it)#i figure art is the one way i can get people to like me 💔 which sounds kinda pathetic because irl i KNOW im liked and capable!#fandom has just become such a big part of my personality that i cant detach my self worth from it#and i do love art and drawing and such i hate that even if i know people my stuff EYE dont and it doesnt mean anything or act as a signifier#of my friendships#wow .... i really am my own therapist ..... i should shut up#the industrial revolution and its consequences (jofandom)#i think these posts are half self exploration half ... almost self harm? because sometimes im so derogatory about myself on purpose in a#'you're worthless' way. but at the same time it's cathartic and i always feel better having probed at my feelings and gotten them in order#not to do a complete 180 but it's MY post and JO LONDON IN *12* DAYS!!!!!!!! AHH i'm sooo excited if it doesnt live up to my expectations i#may cry a little. and there will be another vent post from me !#sometimes i wonder if anyone actually reads these 😭#vee rambles

i think the reason i always feel so lonely is bc rlly all i want is a romantic relationship that is kinda co-dependent but we love eo nd it works for us. idc that it's generally considered toxic. that's what i need nd want. like i do want to experience nd go thru life w someone always by my side. i need someone close to me all the time to seek quiet, verbal nd physical comfort nd reassurance from. i need to share the burden nd horrors of life w someone else. have their warmth nd closeness be an anchor for me.
#nd it wouldnt get 'too much' bc im actually not like that#i can be content w the same thing for sooooo long. thats comforting to me#nd like to have this we wouldnt need to be attached to the hips or anything. we could be in different rooms or go for a walk alone or whatev#but rlly i want someone to spend most my time w. i want someone where the love makes us want to be close even if we're silent#nd not doing anything. being alone yet together#there r prob lots of psychological reasons for this but honestly i dooont caaare#i want a comfortable life im sick of being scared. nd i dont want to be 'brave' or push myself to live how others want#idk.... i also think this would be realistically possible for me bc im not a person who fights lol#like i just dont. if im in a bad mood i say im in a badd mood i need to be quiet nd thats that. i can coexist without causing friction#but yeahhh it's (part of) why i constantly feel alone. this is what i need to feel truly satisfied nd nothing else can soothe it#📓💭

okay i give up i cant write this pjo fic percy loves sally too much
#which is good! love that he loves his mom i think that’s so realistic#maybe i just need to do a re-read but i dont ever remember him being angry/bitter about it which. i do not understand#like i don’t need to understand it i just need to be able to write it but like. okay.#in those situations there is a lot of manipulation involved from the mothers side esp when the men are introduced to the kids young#so that part was easy like gabe prob smacked percy and sally was like im sorry hon next time just try to be more careful ok#but i have no idea how this didn’t lead into him resenting sally as he got older#esp since i don’t think he knew gabe was hitting her too so it’s not like he was putting up w gabe to physically protect his mom#which would be another issue in itself bc he’s literally 12#anyway this is all being said to reiterate that i still do have so many sally jackson thoughts even though this fic crashed and burned#shoutout to sally jackson your efforts as an accomplice to your child’s abuse will forever be tossed around in my mind#also while i’m here talking about her i need to talk about that scene in the pjo show where she told him off#so many ppl were tryna “um actually 🥸☝️” the entire thing by saying book sally would do the same cos she’s fiery in canon#which is so true sally did stand up to gabe#and i have no doubt she would have told him off in the book to#o#but i also have no doubt that she would have gotten the shit beat out of her for it later#it’s a double edged sword people who get abused aren’t 100 percent meek or 100 percent strong willed all the time#its an ugly little mix of everything and depending on the day some of the traits present more strongly than the others#ok i’m done in a fr way now

I prefer Guys characterization in the princes path rather then his consort route
I feel like all the routes should've progressed slower tbh but with Guy in particular I feel like it would really work with a slow burn romance
Also, unrelated but MC always falls in love with her chosen consort by chapter 10 like girl you've known this man for 2 weeks
#also the length of time each path spans isn't clear therefore it either feels too fast paced or soon#i kinda wish book 1 consort routes were more figurative like still focused on the progression of their relationship and character developmen#but less focused on the actual establishing of the relationship if that makes any sense#i guess it would have to be different for different characters and the overall dynamic of the relationship but regardless#with 30 chapters + 3 interludes and your chosen ending you would think you can do alot with that#cus 30 chapters is alot and 5 story parts per chapter too#i dont think alot of the stories need tp change if im being honest now#but imagine if each chapter included more subtance not to mention detail to clarify alot of things#overall I thing the book 1 consort routes to felt really filling were Roy or Toa#or maybe knight i remember the first time I read knights route like i was watching a movie cus i ended up really sucked into the story#and the lore of it too#same with Roy#i wish there was more side plot to the consort route cus realistically im not thinking about or doing the same thing everyday even if im#set on a specific path and moving forward towards a goal if that makes any sense#the path or goal in this case being cuffing one if these ridiculously hot men yk like im not gonna be thinking about this man every second#of the goddamn day no#court of darkness#kay just saying shit

back in my "seething about being on sick leave" era again
#:)#you know how lame it is to be stuck at home beholden to the will of the hospital and not be able to really go anywhere/do anything#i think it's killing me because i plain and simply don't feel sick like at all! completely symptomless health issues here#but i'm still stuck with my only realistic options being either play videogames or write (but not for any uni-affiliated projects)#and idk when i don't leave the house for too long the Horrors set in#and even though i actually only have like one hospital appointment every two weeks i am overwhelmed by the feeling of being Stuck#kinda stirring up the same emotions as 2020 quarantine except this time the world's still going on without me lol#howwwwwwwwwwwwwww do people actually endure such isolating frustrating conditions long term. i think im gonna go insane

actually im kind of thinking abt how all the main players in the AU are probably way more mentally Not Great than it may appear at first
#like Alex is constantly worrying she isn't doing enough for her family and pushes herself way too hard physically and mentally bc of it#no one expects it out of her but she kind of just got herself into that mindset and ends up hurting herself by pushing too hard usually#(Rana is working with her to help break the habit)#Herobrine lived in caves for like 7 (I think. im too lazy to go check the rough timeline rn) years straight#like i already dont have to explain why thats bad on its own but hyperfixating on a dead civilization that long#to the point where you almost entirely forgot your first language is Worse.#he's had so many spider bites and eaten parts of spiders that he's literally just immune to the venom now#Rana you'd think would be better off since she's like the traditional happy cheery character but I guess that's also why she's Not#being happy is a choice to her. she's lived through some of the worst shit but she keeps persisting because the world needs more love in it#she's going to be happy out of spite despite all the odds and she wants to give that to others as much as she can#this girl walks in and out of the Nether every other month for potion ingredients like how 'okay' can she actually be really#Steve is probably like the most normal by comparison#but im not really sure how sane you can realistically qualify yourself to be when you've previously done DIY top surgery with a sword#that was not a fun day for neither Steve nor (pre transition) Rana but it worked! please dont do that again#no one else do it either neither of them would recommend it#he's not traumatized from that or anything but ill be damned if the gender dysphoria didnt win that day#but at the same time so did he. via the use of like 20 healing potions#thanks Rana#minecraft au mastertag

Last Night:
This morning:
they just love to look so fucked up and rotting. I guess. for fun?
#toy pic post#undescribed#90gal#corycats#corydoras#corydora catfish#the duality of corydora?#i promise perspective is making that size difference look even worse than it actually is. the big cory IS a bit closer to the camera.#also when i fucking woke up that one on the outside looking so so so bad was in the exact same spot and if it was still there after therapy#i was gonna maybe poke it. probably feed first since i want to feed them today but. yea#it stayed there all night and then now its. acting normal. swimming about. being social with its friend#THAT SAID i do notice that chunk of tail missing. luckily i only think its that one. the other has a healthy tail....but fucked up dorsal#BUT the fucked up dorsal might be my nemo attempter. cos whichever one did that did fuck up the dorsal a bit?#anyway. theres 5 large bronze/green ones in there and 2 of these guys so im hoping the aggression balances?#and that one in the pic is the Largest of all of them. i think thats the only green one?#but idk. hopefully i can get my shit in order and get a qt tank and then maybe i can add like ? 4 more lil white guys and then maybe theyll#be less bullyable. harder to single out?#i still think this tank is the better option rn considering that i started with 6 in the 40gal and now i have only 2#and never found any corpses. only. very very fat kuhli loaches and an extremely fat clown pleco#i want to add loaches to that tank eventually but i fear ill be growing them out in a qt tank cos otherwise they might get eaten#my loaches are so so fat rn and im worried i wont find any big enough to homd their own for sale#but i should also maybe be able to get some in at work now easier? so theres that#and realistically by the time i have my shit together enough to think about a qt tank ill prolly be trained in the fish room by then

Just realized Vincent's character can kinda be summed up as "i can fix her" and horrendously failing
#'i can fix her' bro she is actively being made worse as we speak!!!!!#okay i jest but this did make me think about some stuff actually#vincent's honestly a guy that seems so. not human. like literally in that hes kinda a zombie and can transform into monsters#and then metaphorically in that hes canonically a 'natural loner' as nojima calls him and comes off as cold and admits hes just like that#but hes So. Fucking. Human in that he was in love and chased after a woman with a million red flags#and who frankly didnt deserve him and he butted into a situation that actually should have stopped being his business#but he continuously tried to do 'the right thing' and got himself screwed over for it#and proceeded to BLAME HIMSELF and try to fix 'his mistake'#like. whats more human than 'its my fault and i should have tried harder and done the right thing' WHEN WHAT HE SHOULD HAVE DONE#WAS GET THE FUCK OUTTA THERE ONCE HE WAS TOLD TIME AND TIME AGAIN THAT ITS NONE OF HIS BUSINESS ESSENTIALLY#the more and more i break down vincent the more i realize like#wow. he kinda sucks. like not even just in a loser way but in like. yep! thats a human! way#thats a person who digs himself deeper and deeper into a hole thinking if i just dig a little deeper itll get better#and now hes six feet under in a grave :/ metaphorically. well. he does end up in a coffin but like. unrelated actually. huh.#okay i actually shouldnt call him a loser and say he sucks actually cuz i think he acts very realistically in terms of like#guy whos in love and thinks he can save her if he just talks enough. guy who thinks maybe this time will be enough to fix the situation#GUY WHO THINKS IF I SAY THE RIGHT THING ITLL FINALLY GET THROUGH TO HER *proceeds to reword the same statement a million times*#hes too human really. ohhhh my god im gonna lose it. OH MY GOD HES JUST SOME GUY#HES THE RESULT OF JUST SOME GUY TRYING TO BE A PROTAG BUT THEN HES HIT WITH CRUEL REALITY AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA#personal

♡ younger! s/o x bakugou headcannons !
YALL DONT THINK OF THIS IN A P3DO SENSE, I MEAN IT IN A WHOLESOME WAY. PLS DONT ATTACK ME. fair warning: this is HEAVILY unedited... pt. 2
you first meet each other when your mom invites his family over for lunch due to her and his mom working together. (yes this is gonna be a moms friends son trope bc thats whats happening to me 😈).
you walk down to greet the family- completely expecting to see the ugliest boy youve seen in your life. only to find out hes a ua student, built, and ofc... super fucking hot...
bakugou just stares at you blankly as you walk up and say hello to his parents and him.
recognizing his mom, you give her a hug with a big smile as she does the same.
"y/n! meet my son katsuki! hes a year older than you, but you two should get along just fine!" introduces mitsuki happily.
all you manage is a nod in response as you meet his gaze again. "um... nice to meet you bakugou.." you say smiling slightly. "just call me katsuki..." he responds gruffly as he stuffs his hands further into his pockets.
"y/n.. why dont you take katsuki upstairs and let him play on my ps5?" says your dad jokingly as he nudges your shoulder. you roll your eyes with a grin before motioning him to follow you back upstairs.
as you turn on the ps5 you hand him the controller, "we only have cod right now..." you say apologetically. "so, i heard you go to ua right...?" you ask questioningly as you sit on the other side of the couch facing him.
"yeah im in the hero program" he responds focusing on the game playing in front of him. you nod you head thoughtfully at his response "what year are you in katsuki..?"
"im in my final year, what about you...?" he says finally glancing back at you with his carmine eyes. "uh... im in 3rd year" you say fumbling over your words slightly.
"damn your young.." he chuckles as he shakes his head slightly, "hey at least im not about to go to college.." you retort with a small smirk.
bakugou cant help but grin at your response, "you calling me old shorty?" he asks with a slight smirk.
you internally melt at the sight but remain composed, "hey, im just being realistic here.." you respond as you raise your hands up.
"realistic my ass.." he mutters quickly turning back to the game, "what ass are you talking about katsuki?" you ask with a laugh.
suddenly, you hear the sound of laughter and turn to see his head thrown back as he struggles to keep himself composed, "you- you should not being saying stuff like that shorty..." he says in between chuckles.
throughout the rest of the time you and bakugou start talking more and more, almost as if you two were old friends reconnecting. heck, even his parents were surprised to see him actually talking to you like a normal person.
just before they leave you stand by the door quickly responding to a friends message. "shorty.." he calls, making you look up to see him handing you his phone. "lets stay in touch so i can keep an eye on ur bratty ass.." bakugou gruffs blushing slightly.
you widen your eyes but quickly agree as you type in your number. "ill text you soon shortcakes.." he grins before ruffling your hair and walking out right beside his parents.
All you can do is stand there rooted in your spot with flushed cheeks, grinning like a delusional idiot
#bakugo katsuki#bakugou katsuki#bakugou x reader#bnha bakugou#kacchan#kacchan bakugou#katsuki bakugo mha#katsuki bakugo x reader#katsuki bakugou#mha#katsuki headcanons#my hero academia#boku no hero academia#mha headcanons#mha bakugou#katsuki x reader#bakugo katuski#katsuki#t3ag3rs

literally obsessed with this characterization of jj
#ao3#obx#actually this is the first obx fic ive ever read LOL but it's literally so good like my standards are high now#AGAIN JJ IS LITERALLY SUCH A SWEET CHARACTER#he's reckless and he makes a lot of mistakes but he's so genuine and i love that for them#also the fact that he doesnt have hookups in the show is unrealistic for their being on a beach status but realistic for his trauma#actually im just making things up ive never watched obx#also something actually related to this fic is i literally cannot read it#like i have to read the same paragraph 4 times to get it i dont understand why

So. ive been going through your billy batson tag bc im very normal and super hinged about this kid and you ARE right about Billy growing up the normal way and how that would effect him, but I need us all to consider the opposite: The Magic went "Ah, he's pure of heart bc he is but a lad", and not *letting* him grow up. Billy being immortal but stuck as a kid forever. The realization everyone is going to grow up w/o him. That he is *always* going to be a kid. That could be a very bad time too.
OH MY HEART. you're so right and i'm kissing you on the mouth. okay i need to marinate in this now stand by
so I think it's fairly accepted now that the Wizard chose Billy to be Shazam when he was so young because all of the previous Champions were adults, and that went Badly (see: Black Adam). So obviously, if the adults can do the whole superhero thing, then we should give the role to a kid. But then, to take it a step further: if the adults can't do the superhero thing, then we should make the next Champion stay a kid.
And like, it takes a hot minute for Billy to notice. Say he became CM at 8 - he doesn't know the average rate of growth for a boy. He just thinks he's not getting as tall as quickly as his peers. It's not like there's adult supervision around to go "hello small small child, why are you still small and a child?" I could see him going at least a few years before realizing there might be something wrong. Then it takes him a little bit to figure out what exactly is wrong, and then a little longer to be in denial, before he finally has to come to terms with, yeah, he really is 8 years old for the rest of forever.
I wonder how it affects him, mentally? Because you could go one of two ways: either he stays mentally an 8 year old forever and doesn't mature, although he gains knowledge and experience with time, or he does mentally mature and becomes an adult, just stuck in the body of a child.
For angst reasons, I like the second one, but realistically, the whole reason he's in this mess is because the Wizard wanted someone who was pure of heart to stay pure of heart. Why go through all the trouble to not let him physically age but allow his mind to change? So now we have an eternally "both mentally and physically a child" situation.
I feel like, when you're that young, you can't really... process how devastating that is? He's only a little kid - at that age, you can't even imagine turning 18 yet, much less living out the rest of your life as an adult. He doesn't know what he's lost. So instead of Billy angst, it's outsider POV angst. Everyone is growing old and watching Billy stay the same as always. I imagine he reveals his identity at some point, a while into being Captain Marvel, and they have a Twilight moment of "I'm 8" "....how long have you been 8?" ("no, but actually, we've known you for 12 years, you can't actually be 8. what do you mean 'a wizard did it'."). Everyone is just quietly mourning the person Billy could have become, had he not been chosen to be the Champion of Magic, meanwhile Billy is living out the eternal childhood dream of Superpowers + Adult Body w/o Adult Responsibilities. It's tragic in a way Billy can never comprehend because of what the wizard did to him.
Feel free to add onto this post!
#mads posts#billy batson#captain marvel#shazam#dc#dc comics#dcu#anyways Billy refuses to watch Peter Pan because it makes him feel shrimp emotions#also his foster siblings. or at least his twin Mary depending on the canon#can you IMAGINE what it's like for them#that has to be wild#half a century down the line its like 'yeah this is my brother billy. i adopted him and he's basically my son because we've known each othe#our entire lives but he has never gotten older and he can't comprehend everything he's lost. i can though.'#sobs#anyways PLEASE let this become one of those collaborative Everyone Adds On sort of posts. i need this idea to spread now#anon ily
