FOOOOOOOD
yesterday my kid gave me cream filled milk bread, meat stuffed croquets (both were even better than they look in the baking videos, like genuinely wonderful baked goods, am now a bit obsessed with milk bread and croquets) and fried cheese curds and fancy tea (like extremely posh and gorgeous stuff, this kid worked in a tea shop for years and knows from tea yo) and our family friend (who is running a store but should be a highly paid locally famous chef, everything she cooks tastes like perfume, she’s incapable of making mediocre food; people think I’m exaggerating until they taste her cooking and then they freak out too, she’s that good) made one of the best cheeseburgers I’ve ever eaten (WITH a fried runny egg, good lord) and fried potato discs
AND my kid got a very decent job in their field!!!!! first real post college job (after a metric shittonne of gig work and like yearrrrrrs of HARD labor for min wage). this kid went through college slowly because we’re so broke, and has worked so hard for so long and they’ve been through so much family and personal tragedy, like the kind that’s so brutal you don’t talk about it much, if ever, and they’re gorgeous, literally, and brilliant, literally, but they’re really really quiet and calm and always serving other people, always propping up others, so they get overlooked A LOT alot a lot. this job is a big deal. they’ve been through so much, they’re afraid to be too happy about it but I’m freaking delighted for them, they deserve all the money and promotions and accolades, like allll of them i mean goddamm
and our chef friend GOT BEYONCE TICKETS and this girl lives and dies for Bey, she’s already planning her outfit and nails for the fall concert (there are going to be the most incredible Looks and Fan Homages at the shows, cannot wait to see all the pics)
food and job and tix, all on the same day
this is a big deal for our friend, she loves Beyonce the way I love Keanu. I know everyone is suffering, but she’s an artistic genius who got a degree in business because she’s a first gen child of immigrants, so she’s running a grocery store in freaking lawrence kansas during the apocalypse. she’s always had to deal with racist and sexist shit but lately? if i could get her to wear a bulletproof vest to work, i’d feel a lot better. she gets all the bullshit and danger and none of the perks, literally none of them, not from her bosses or her employees, certainly not from abusive customers. getting Bey tix is like winning the lottery for her, it’s such a big happy thing
everything is broken and hard and awful but there’s still incredible food and precious family and friends
feeling grateful, wanted to share because other folks good news feels personal and wonderful to me lately, like community victories, so am hoping my nice day is a good thing for yawl the way your personal victories and fun stuff is so lovely for me
#for real your happy moments make me happy too#i think it's good to share nice things when we're in the shit#personal#big day for my little family

valentine, you're a horse ❤️
#my little pony#mlp g3#wish-I-may#wish-I-might#ok so. I'm gonna ramble for a sec#normally when I post on valentine's day I complain in the tags about being single. but I won't this year!#I've recently realized I'm definitely somewhere on the aromantic spectrum. and that I'm perfectly content without a partner#in the past I've described myself as 'emotionally unavailable' or having 'commitment issues' but neither of those things were ever true#I'm a very loving and loyal person!#I've always been extremely affectionate with friends and family but unable to have the same level of love for potential partners#unsure if I'm just demisexual/demiromantic or actually aroace but I'm definitely not the default settings type of gay lol#I'm a big fan of romance and sex in fiction! but irl? 😅😬 idk about that fam! idk!#hypothetically I would like to have a gf one day and maybe fall in love but now I understand why that may not happen#or atleast is gonna take a while. and that's fine :)#tldr; if your top song on spotify last year was Cupid by Fifty Fifty it's time to do some soul searching lol#happy valentine's day!! 💕

Doddles of Holm and his big sis. :3c
I have a lot feelings about them and in my mind this is what their sibling dynamic is like. I can picture them bickering a lot as children maybe even fighting a little bit but at the end of the day they still love and care about each other as brother and sister.
He he I also bet, she talks to Kabru about Holm sometimes, while he can rather bothersome and annoying to her; she is still very proud of her baby brother. Also, she probably shares some of Holm’s more embarrassing moments in his life with Kabru as well much to his dismay.
Also, I like the idea of both the Kranom siblings being above average in gnome height.
#dungeon meshi#delicious in dungeon#dungeon meshi holm#holm kranom#holm#Holm’s sister#my art#I also have a couple of small doddles of me toying around with prequel comic idea for Holm. Maybe I will do it one day who knows.#Based on my little headcanon idea of Holm being the last member to join Kabru party and how he comes around to joining his party.#I have a bunch of silly little headcanons for Holm and his big sister. As well as the rest of Holm’s family a little bit. :3c#Also I think of names to call Holm’s sister. I have two names in mind like Gladys or Eileen which I think would be nice names for her. :3c

it is a truth universally acknowledged, that a bernard down in possession of an empty lap, must be in want of a tim drake to sit in it
#that is tim's spot exclusively#that is his lap to sit in to be cradled in#that is his lap to feel safe in#they get a cat one day and tim hatessss that little calico bitch#who the fuck does lovelace think she is curling up in his area#bear doesnt even try to argue anymore#they're at like a family movie night and steph has a spot open next to her#except tim sees bear's open lap and tunnel visions so hard that he never makes to steph#he just flops onto bear's lap and snuggles into the crook of his neck#and bear just has to sit there ears bright red as the rest of family looks on#also tim's not the only one who gets jealous btw#tims got this teddy bear that he dresses up in 🐻 clothes and bear hates the thing#loathes it despises it#if he could throw it away without making tim sad he would#bernard dowd#tim drake#timbern#tim talking to lovelace: listen to me you little homewrecker. bear's lap is *my* spot okay? that's my big strong man!! not yours!! got it?#🐻 the very next night talking to tim's teddy: listen to me you homewrecker. that is *my* baby!!! my bf to hold!!!#they're like certifiably insane about each other

dabi doing toga's hair because he used to do fuyumi's dabi helping tomura and spinner when they get stuck on game levels like he used to do with natsuo compress and kurogiri parenting the league and both dabi and toga don't know what to do with the attention and unconditional love twice being like a big brother to all of them, most of whom have never had an older sibling before the league being family to each other because most of them either don't have family or don't have family that wants them (or that they think want them)
#give me the little day to day things#the bonding that's practically unavoidable if you spend months living with someone#give me the league being there for each other#league of villains as family#they care about each other#dabi's big brother instincts#boku no hero academia#my hero academia#league of villains#touya todoroki#todoroki touya#dabi#tomura shiragaki#shigaraki tomura#himiko toga#toga himiko#spinner mha#spinner bnha#mr compress#kurogiri#fuyumi todoroki#natsuo todoroki#bnha headcanons#mha headcanons#soft dabi

It’s Christmas morning and your parents actually got you that 7ft tall robot jester you’ve been raving about and now you have to awkwardly unwrap them in front of the rest of your family.
#this post was inspired by something I read a long long time ago that I couldn’t hunt down if my life depended on it#its really funny to imagine your hyperfixation in real life and your family seeing it with absolutely no context#how would you even begin to explain it#I would also like to think that the daycare attendant would just seamlessly fit into your family for that day and would help with#preparing the Christmas meals and cleaning up all the torn wrappings and ribbons etc#if you have yunger relatives the dca is running around with them playing silly little games while the adults are sipping eggnog catching up#just a really wholesome hypothetical where everything is peaceful and happy and everyone gets along#and no one really questions your big and very friendly sociable gift#anywhooooo it’s October why am I thinking about this#dca#dca Christmas#sb daycare attendant#Christmas#hypotheticals#crunch ramble

I will never make this because it would be for an audience of one (me) but ever since reading "If we Were Villains" (story about serious drama kids in college who perform shakespeare and deal with a murder) I have been entertaining the thought of a crack fic crossover with High School Musical The Musical The Series where the staff decides they will no longer put on shakespeare after the tragic accident that happened at Thanksgiving, because Shakespeare plays would only increase the tension and drama. So they hire Ms. Jen who decides their spring play will actually be High School Musical (which exists in the 90s in this universe) and it ruins the vibe so much that everyone gives up on being dark and mysterious because they're universally pissed at Ms Jen for making them learn choreoraphed basketball dancing.
#if we were villains is actually genuinely good and has actual literary worth and pulls from shakespeare in an intelligent meaningful way#but unfortunately all i can do is comedy so this is the only fan content i have to offer :(#THE THING IS iwwv is just hsmtmts if it hsmtmts was good and also they committed crimes#they utilize the same parallel of casting choices with real life drama which I love#umm so casting: Meredith would be Sharpay Obvi. I think it would be really funny if James was cast as Ryan bc they hate eachother and would#have to pretend to be siblings working together. And I think ashley tisdale and Lucas Gabreel actually didn't get along when filming#also i love the thought of Ms Jen looking at James and going “i know what you are”#HOWEVER it would be more interesting if james was Chad to Oliver's Troy (which is really just reversing their Romeo and Juliet moment)#bc chad is like nooo don't do theater... stick with me and do basketball... but it would be Coded Subtextually#Unfortunately Wren would be typecast as Gabriella and I don't think that would cause drama bc I don't believe James actually liked her!#I think it was comp het bc she was very sweet and nonthreatening as opposed to Meredith's big flirting energy so she would be a “safe” crus#lets lean into that actually. this gives Wren a chance to have a personality (bc I enjoy this book but it is not good at fleshing out women#So oliver and Wren spend more time together and kind of talk about James a little and Wren is like yeah James is very sweet#and I like him but it feels so hard to get him to feel comfortable with me... i guess he's just closed off and doesn't talk much#we also get to see more of her personality and interests maybe she's like I relate to gabriella because I also like to Read :) feminism#and oliver is like Hmm That Is Not My Experience With Him perhaps our bond is deeper and James does like me Hm#And then Meredith can flirt with him as Sharpay and James gets pissed and in character gets very intense about how Troy can't join THEATER#that's why he's upset and sad bc sharpay represents theater and only that reason and nothing else and he isn't in love with oliver At All#Alexander can be Ryan now since James is Chad (and he's also Gay) and Filippa can be Kenzie bc they're both queer coded#Anyway at rehearsal one day Meredith and James and Oliver are having their fighting over troy moment and then Meredith stops and is like#wait guys. This musical is so freaking stupid. why are we even doing this#and their mutual frustration at their art being turned into a farce is enough to bond them together and they're like#we need to focus on our REAL enemy: ms Jen#and then they hatch a scheme and it's probably like. They dump a bucket of fake blood on her at opening night a la carrie#and then put on their own rebellious production... it still has to be a musical because i like musicals#families with children are in the audience and they're like OK FOLKS! HERE'S ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW!#if we were villains#iwwv#hsmtmts#high school musical the musical the series

Ouhhhh friendship I love friendship……..
#I’m reading volumes 14-16 of the ouran manga OOUGHHH MY HEART#I love this weird little friend group so much its unreal#like u have this charming sweeps you off your feet prince but he’s actually a huge lovable idiot with a kind heart and his friends#who are all misfits that he reached out to and drew in because of his kindness and own weirdness like that shits TIGHT BRO#and the trauma part where he has some deep seated issues with love bc he thinks that itll break a family apart like with his mom#how his family isnt allowed to be together because his mom and dad fell in love and how he says he wants to build a big house#so that way one day everyone will get along as a family like. all he wants is not to lose everyone and the only way to do that is#by maintaining a certain order.. he both wants a complete family so bad and doesnt want anything to sour between anyone#so he assigns each of his friends a family role based on how he sees them and YEAH its mostly played for giggles and tamakis#already weird so its his way of showing theyre close to him but. god damn this boy has LAYERS#it also feels kinda meta towards how found family tends to get thrown around to assign characters as 'siblings' or family roles instead of#using it to describe characters who are close enough to be each others family. cuz tamakis doing that EXACT THING in a way tht#ties in with his character and i have to say its fascinating using that within the story itself and its completely plausible#theres a lot of things i can say about ouran that are good bad and questionable but. god i love it when characters are niceys to each other#i remember i really liked the mall episode bc kyoya and haruhi got to spend time together and their relationship isnt very close#but it was really nice to see their personalities bounce off each other. i think i also wouldve liked to see haruhi alone with kaoru#i also firmly believe all of the hosts are at least a little in love with haruhi and this can be anything like endearing romantic cuz like#who DOESNT love haruhi. kyoya i think would want to study her under a microscope like his fascination with her draws him in#but im fucking obsessed with whatever haruhi and tamaki have going on because YES hes obsessed with her YES he jumps at the chance to#put her in a cute costume but haruhi? she just fucking goes with it because she knows hes fun to be around even if hes a little wacky abt i#theyre all so. NNGGHHHH#ouran#ohshc#yapping

#thinking of dinosaurs and troodontids were my favorite dinosaurs as a child#when younger i had a real full troodontid tooth fossil that meant a lot to me#for a time we lived within a few kilometers of hadrosaur sites and troodontid sites#while wider general area had many sites of recovery for the big celebrities like tyrannosaur and multiple dromaeosaurs#at that time troodontids were kinda infamous for i think the depiction in some childrens field guides and dino books#which depicted like a fantasy speculative humanoid troodontid based on 1980s model at Canadian Museum of Nature in ottawa#anyway would visit a small local paleo center a lot and woman in her 70s or 80s ran the counter of their center and rock shop#one day she asked me what my fave dino was and i said troodon so she pulled out the tooth and just gifted it to me#in little black case size of ring box with padding and transparent plastic viewing cover kinda like laminate for displaying a trading card#tooth got stolen from out my vehicle while giving some people a ride while at university before i got too poor for tuition#later during first year of pandemic owner of my storage unit died and new property owners threw away everything i ever owned#i was homeless anyway lost job due to early pandemic closures and had to allocate any money to insulin and other prescrip meds#but wouldve found a way to save my things if the new owners had contacted me#they threw out photoalbums y backpacking gear y books y musical instruments y clothes y artwork y camera y all family keepsakes#and all childhood treasures like souvenirs and gifts and school awards and writing portfolios and all the little memories#which i was always sentimental about as child#from earliest age my room looked like a natural history museum with plants and maps and library of field guides#and rocks and field trip keepsakes and all kinds of little animal figurines and mother had painted room in forest greens and browns#to feel like a forest and among the succulent plants and a globe sat the troodon tooth#parents passed when i was a child#never near any family and were always moving never got to settle into proper stable place then father passed after long sad illness#and mother put in so much effort but she passed few years later and i could not take care of myself or my remaining material possessions#and so im still quite hurt having nothing whatsoever remaining of my childhood or school friends or mother or life generally#and when trying to process grief my thoughts often come back to the troodontid tooth as a focal point a distillation of what was lost#even when young i knew it was advised not to become too connected to material physical possessions#but still there are some small little trinkets in our lives that seem to hold so much meaning and i tortured myself for losing that tooth#thinking about troodon reminds me of childhood

Admittedly maybe this is just because I only got through season 1 of Elena of Avalor before getting sidetracked (and right now I don’t think I have the time to continue binging), but at least from what I’ve seen there, I feel like it’s not acknowledged enough the fact that Esteban was the only member of the family to have aged a whole 41 years
Though specifically, I mean the family doesn’t seem to address this that much
Like, before Shuriki, Esteban was only a couple years older than Elena, wasn’t he? He was probably less than a decade older than Isabel. And now suddenly for them, he’s a full grown man, presumably around 60
Is this not weird for them? No adjusting period? Like okay, maybe I can understand Elena because she was semi-aware of time passing, and then maybe Fransisco and Luisa since they’ve lived a long time and saw their own children grow up into full adults, so it’s at least semi familiar, but is it not weird for Isa, her teenage cousin now suddenly being an old man? Especially because he was living with them for presumably the majority of her life
I don’t know if I’m explaining myself right, but it just sort of irks me how they seem to accept this new circumstance so quickly
I mean, I guess I get it, it’s a Disney Junior show, maybe they don’t want to deal with all that drama, especially within the first season of the show where this would be most prevalent, but you know
Hopefully there’s fanfiction of what I want somewhere
#it also personally irks me how little Esteban is used in Season 1#he’s usually just an antagonistic force outside of his 2 focus episodes#but like my main irk is that he’s not there at family stuff#when the family goes on vacation in that one episode he’s nowhere to be seen#and he’s not even in the first Day of the Dead episode#it’s like for gods sake include him in stuff#he’s part of the family too#sorry this all isn’t really a big deal#it just came to mind and it’s bothering me right now#elena of avalor#esteban flores#random stuff

Vent.
Not my mom saying, and I quote, "there's men–...and women, who deserve their fiancee to treat them badly"
And then I look at the hypothetical camera in concern as if I lived in a dark-humor sitcom.
#vent#so this might explain a few things about my almost complete lack of self esteem lmao#i have been having terrible truly terrible days and this just almost made me laugh loudly because#because damn my family isn't even subtle yet i still have the very victim-like complex of defending them and put myself down viciously#like this isn't particularly a big deal compared to...well their usual awfulness but it showscases it nicely#almost like a summary of character lolol#rhea's notebook#and then i wonder why always my fave characters are the most traumatized and beaten little guys ever
