It's funny to be an adult who didn't realize they were queer until they were grown. Turns out those "crushes" on the cool boys weren't crushes. It was gender envy, but I didn't have the vocabulary to convey that

#lgbtq #nonbinary #i have such a distinct memory of a boy in middle school #i remember nothing about him but his look #he was one of those cool tall lanky emo kids who wore what he wanted had painted nails and dyed hair #even had the classic emo hair cut #he was also a sweet kid #if my friends hadnt made my “crush” weird i think i could have been friends with him #we talked every now and then but then when i went on to high school i never saw him again #i think his name was chris #i remembered him a few weeks ago and i realized it was never about having feelings toward him #it was how cool his vibes were and wanting to be more like him #not in a following a trend sort of way but a #'i finally have a visual representation of how i feel on the inside'#but at the time i was an awkward little girl with crooked teeth and badly bleached hair with stupid pink streaks my parents put in it #wondering why i didnt feel at home in my body #high school came around and i found a friend who was into emo bands and metal who had tattos and long hair #he was the nicest coolest person i knew and we were friends all 4 years and i finally felt seen #i didnt have a 'crush' on him but he was the cool dude friend i could always talk to and i took so much inspiration from him #he was even a huge artistic inspiration for me

good morning everyone, are we all recovered after whatever that was last night

#käärijä #kaivohuone #a lot of emotions going around last night #a lot of people feeling guilty about encouraging this industry that seems to be fucking over our boy #and like... good that that's been brought to light #we should be consuming content while thinking about the effects #he loves his fans #so we should be the best fans #basically let the boy rest and vent and respect that he's just some guy #jere pöyhönen #idk what i wanted to say here really #just there's no point feeling bad #if you see him on the street hold back on taking pictures #and continue supporting him by keeping him trending and posting positive things for him to see when he inevitably searches his name lol #music industry sucks #okay enough #rant over #time for some coffee

#beat his ass yoshiki #i hope yoshiki kills twitter quicker #if you don’t know #because i didn’t know until like 2 seconds ago #musk boy wants to rename twitter to just X #so if ‘x’ was in japan it would be named #. x japan #except you know . x japan is x japan #and yoshiki was like Hey man it’s actually trademarked by us so #then x nippon started trending because that’s the only other thing he could name it #my post 🔮#laurence says things 🌌

Bothers me immensely that Reverse Flash, the dumb fuck, gets the Yellow Flash Costume.

The Yellow Flash Costume should have gone to Wally. Because it matches his Kid Flash costume. It gave him individuality. Being the Flash, but in yellow, would have given him something more of his own.

Instead, he got Barry’s hand-me-downs. Both, in name and costume... Now, the mantle itself, I don’t mind so much; Jay’s the Flash, Barry’s the Flash, Wally’s the Flash, Bart’s the Flash, everybody gets to be the Flash, whatever. It holds meaning.

But the costume. The costume I do mind. Screw the Reverse Flash. He doesn’t deserve it. Wally would look so much better wearing it.

#Wally West #I just want to be able to tell the Flashes apart honestly #but also. I really do think that this weird trend #of making the new Flash just... look like Barry...#sucks a whole lot. because it robs them of their individuality #both Wally AND Bart who also #with the costume and the name changes and the HAIRCUT #just became like a Wally-slash-Barry copy essentially #that's so frustrating #why won't the creative team behind the Flash have some FUN #and design some ORIGINAL NEW COSTUMES for the boys #The Flash #DC Comics

The name Luka may be canon, but Luisa lives on in my heart...

And thus, I headcanon Luka as nonbinary, and they use whatever name they feel like on a whim. c:

#dee p thoughts #alien stage #alnst #vivinos #TRULY did not know what luka's gender was at first #referred to them as ''they'' but was expecting them to be a girl because vivinos trends lol #and I thought they were named luisa at the time lol #now Im assuming luka is a boy #but let me have this lol yall are free to do whatever #I just started off calling luka they and its been Associated In My Brain #either way I ultimately feel like they (like me) probably dont care about what pronouns are used for them too much #they have better things to worry about (surviving c:)#okay now Ill actually fold my laundry lol

Either that guy who harassed me in hs genuinely liked me and was being a freak or as the one girl said he just did that to be a douche and was trying to make a joke that hey he’s hitting on the quiet girl

#I know I’m not ugly from a conventional societal stand point #ever since I was a kid I’d get compliments from adults fatema for some reason was always so jealous and bitter abt my looks #but she would always compliment me #in truth I do not know what the hype is about and I definitely do not see it #myself #but like stuff like this makes me feel stupid cause if you’re gonna be a freak at least like me and do it #don’t do it to make fun of me #I’m literally that TikTok trend of that manga panel #where the guy asks a girl out and then she was like we’re you dared to do that ?#it’s so mean #the boys in my class for ma to would mock me once when I was saying my name #for math *#I was literally just a quiet math nerd what did they ever want from me #like it’s so mean genuinely #dora daily #literally don’t belong anywhere ☠️
