The thing about Chip Zdarsky's daredevil run is that it takes inspiration from the Netflix show and forces that into the comic continuity, but it doesn't even lean into the elements I personally love about Netflix Matt?
He's not perfect, but NMCU Matt at his best is shown to be deeply compassionate and has such a rather warm demeanour to him. When he's happy (especially in college-aged flashbacks) he's really expressive. Women like him because he comes across as thoughtful, rather than being a womaniser. And there's no question as to whether he loves Elektra or not, considering he spends most of the Defenders trying to get through to her.
Not to mention that his Catholicism is deeply personal and certainly not devout. He's a person who grew up around religion and is uniquely attuned to the suffering around him, trying to work out his place in being a man of the people.
None of these traits are inherently better than 616 comic Matt, or even drastically different (although I do think they're fundamentally different characters who I like for different reasons).
But I guess my point is that... it feels like Zdarsky's Matt is based mostly off the "he's an emo Catholic who dresses like a devil to let out his anger and also sleeps with loads of women" jokes based on people's perceptions of Netflix Matt, without adapting a lot of the likeability and nuance that made me like him in the first place.
#daredevil#daredevil comics#anti chip zdarsky#matt murdock#I don't think I've ever really 616 ranted on here mostly because I'm more of a murderdock blog LOL#but like... idk I felt like throwing out my take???#because I genuinely do love Daredevil comics AND the Daredevil Netflix show#which is absolutely flawed and isn't a 1:1 adaptation#but I don't necessarily need an adaptation to be 1:1 when it's good#BUT what bugs me more is the misconceptions that an adaptation can bring#especially when those misconceptions seep their way into the source material#so people are right when they say zdarsky's run is made with the netflix show in mind (particularly his awful treatment of elektra)#but the irony is that zdarsky's matt is just... not netflix matt#so no it doesn't appeal to me#in fact it makes me madder#personally I much prefer when 616 matt is drastically different to his netflix counterpart#I'm done now but byeeee I love you if you read this

I need the people who look at posts talking about Wyll's treatment in both the actual game and especially the fandom and respond with "but i don't like him and I think he's boring" to know that shutting the fuck up is 100% the better option 100% of the time. Him being the only origin character to not have at last 10 hours of content and the existence of mods that literally whitewash him and his dad - among everything else wrong with how Wyll is treated - are not suddenly okay because you, personally, as an individual, don't find him interesting, and your personal individual feelings about him are irrelevant to the issues surrounding his treatment in the bg3 community at large, so like. Stop barging in with your unwanted, unhelpful opinion
#not 3h#wyll ravengard#being daring today and using a non FE main tag because holy shit is this one of the most annoying things fucking ever#had to rant about this because it happens ALL THE TIME in the bg3 fandom i swear to god#person (usually a black person or someone otherwise nonwhite): I think Wyll should have been given more content individual to him#some fuckwit: but he's boring!#person: I think Wyll should have been given more autonomy as a character and not have everything about his arc be up to the player#fuckwit: but he's BORING!!#person: I think it's strange how antagonistic we the player HAVE to be towards Wyll many times especially compared to the other companions#fuckwit: BUT HE'S BORING!!!#person: I think it's problematic that Wyll is constantly connected to his abuser in promo material when no one else is connected to theirs#fuckwit: WYLL IS BORING THO!!!!#person: I think it's unfair to people who like Wyll that bugs that have been around for multiple patches are only now getting patched#(while characters like Asta/rion get even more content on top of already having a shit ton)#fuckwit: BOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIING!!!!!#person: I think the fandom treatment of black Wyll fans who want more Wyll content is racist#fuckwit: HE'S SO BORING!!!!!!#person: People making mods that turn Wyll white/have you beat up *only* Wyll/give Wyll's content to white characters is racist#fuckwit: BUT HE'S SOOOOOOOOO BORING!!!!!!!#like holy SHIT shut the fuck up. that is SO not the damn point.#Fandom Be Normal About Characters of Color Challenge (IMPOSSIBLE) (FAILED) (I ENDED UP BEING RACIST???)#go back to eating Asta/rion's toe jam or whatever the hell his fans do jesus fuck

Thinking about how Leo always flips his shit and searches recklessly for his brothers when they go missing/are separated but probably genuinely didnât expect to be saved at all when he locked himself in the prison dimension
#sorry but the idea of him desperately loving them so completely#only to not usually receive the same treatment (outside of life or death obviously)#like bug busters#he wouldâve given up the bugs for Raph immediately I think#and portal jacked#they didnât really seem to miss him at all as much as he missed them#(tbf they were chilling and probably thought he was also chilling#but the lack of energy matching still stands)#also heâs always one to step in to take the fall or stand up for his bros#but they throw him under the bus#(again#usually because heâs being a massive shit so itâs not unwarranted)#anyways I think he was flabbergasted that he was saved#because when he messes up/self-sabotages he always manages to take the fall#heâs the face man#they shoved him under the bus for the laberinto de muerte stunt#so why would they save him when heâs finally making up for his biggest mistake yet??#he doesnât think theyâre stupid enough to open the portal again just for him#so he mustâve been so honored and surprised when Mikey pulled the impossible#(also Raph and Donnie were highkey ready to quit?? like so quickly)#regardless I love him#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt leo#rise leo

idk i dont think we give hickey enough credit for jumping on the bomb that was about to be the whole manson / irving conflict to de-escalate it.
like manson had just shoved (?) irving (MAJOR no-no, since irving outranks him. also you cant hit your coworkers)and irving was threatening to lock manson in a room alone in the dark with dead men over an unspecified amt of time, because manson expressed being afraid (dangerous to admit!!).
obvs irving is projecting his own anger at himself onto manson here, but itâs especially not ok to do that to manson of all people, who reads to me as someone whoâs mildly intellectually disabled. you dont do that to your coworker, or your subordinate, and you certainly dont do that to someone who may not be capable of defending themselves in the same way you can attack them/defend yourself. itâs a complete abuse of power, and itâs fucking sick. irving i dont care if you hate yourself and youre stressed!!! dont be a dick!!!!
like yeah, itâs to hickeyâs benefit to reassure manson (hes already read crozierâs little note, and i think hickeyâs probably disturbed by francisâ previous plans to leave, shaken that francis believes they need rescue, plus being flogged is not reassuring about crozierâs mental state or sense of control over the crew, and while i dont think hickey is really consciously planning mutiny yet, itâs definitely something his subconscious is chewing on) but thereâs definitely a sense of hickey saying, âoh fuck this shit i am stepping up and interfering with thisâ. which is something heâs demonstrated before, and was flogged for it. like, christ. give the man some credit for calming manson down, and giving him actual tools (lantern, safety in distance, âguardingâ the others) to cope with his fear.
also. sidenote. itâs been made very clear earlier that hickey is not supposed to be carrying heavy things. goodsir says this. hickey flinches when he sets that toolbox down. and then he goes and volunteers himself to help hold a dead body so that manson wouldnt be punished for being afraid. you know how much pain that probably caused him????? like literal, physical pain??? christ
#i do not Get why people like irving. he isnt uwu oppressed angel hes a fucking powertripping bigot#<- to be clear this statement could apply to any number of the crew irving in particular bugs me cause he coats it all in this oilyâ#âchristianity#the terror#terror meta#john irving#cornelius hickey#magnus manson#i havent finished terror so im gonna wait 2 see if inend up likking irving but chances are NOT looking good lmao#also. hickeys a racist cunt. just to be like. clear. i like him and all but. yeah his treatment of silna was sickening#terror amc#the terror amc

My allergy injection this week has upgraded to officially burning and has also turned me into a floppy meat sack.
#ramblies#allergy shots#I knew going bigger would be getting more uncomfortable but thus far itâs made me take a nap on injection day and been slightly itchy#now itâs more like a painful bug bite or perhaps beesting in the lingering burn#upside is knowing it generates fatigue means that allergy treatment should help lessen my overall fatigue#even if its just been contributing at a low level every little bit helps

while my wax wing wilson/icarus house is marinating in my brain, i am thiking about! a house/tma crossover!! idk how much these fandoms overlap but its fiiine im doing this for myself
i just think itâd be cool ok. like, these guys work in a hospital! there are so many options for fear-touched patients!!! some of the patients are avatars, some of them have just had encounters. most of them are in this in-between space, where theyâre not avatars, but not not avatars; theyâre still a little human, but at the same time, theyâre not human anymore.
anyway, thereâs gonna be a corruption patient. whether that be mold or worms/maggots, or whatever, itâs corruption. theyâre at a hospital. itâs gross. i think one of the doctors/nurses would get marked.
so. yeah. corruption patient. but what about, oh i dunno, a buried patient? they have water in their lungs, and no matter what procedures used to get said water out, it comes back. they are always drowning, and there is nothing that can be done. strangely enough, the patient doesnât seem to be in any pain.
a dark patient, who is effectively blind, despite nothing being wrong with their eyes. a flesh patient with way too many bones. an eye patient who is basically another Albrect Von Closen, they do scans or x-rays or wtv, and they find âtumorsâ and go to do surgery; surprise! all they find are eyes, all over his organs, bones, etc.
a desolation patient, which i have vague lore planned out for, and has become an oc. i will maybe make a post abt them later.
thereâs just! so many options!!!
EDIT: look at the tags teehee :3
#the magnus archives#house md#malpractice md#hatecrimes md#the corruption#tw bug mention#tw maggots#just a mention but still#a Lonely cancer patient who has refused treatment#because they arenât getting better#nothing is working#so they request to go home. they want to be comfortable.#there are mandated nurses sent to check on them every few hours.#one of those times the doors are locked. nobody answers. there is a weird fog coming from inside the house and it is cold#and nobody. can get. inside.#they are able to get in eventually. but the patient is lost.#what that means is up to you.#i have to be mean to wilson#cant give house all the interesting ones can i?#tw eyes#tw scopophobia#the eye#the lonely#james wilson#gregory house#dr house#the ducklings

For real tho health freaks who scream about how sugar and salt will kill us all and try to push for restrictions on things like candy and chips for SNAP recipients or politicians who try from time to time to replace food stamps all together and give out Government Approved Staples like bread and peanut butter and Government Cheese are gonna kill a whole lotta sick and disabled people like
Diabetics
POTS sufferers
Hypotensives
People with peanut allergies
People with celiac disease or wheat allergies
The lactose intolerant
People who can't eat solid food
People who are undernourished for any reason and need all the calories they can pack on
So-called "picky eaters" who can't tolerate certain tastes and textures without getting violently ill
A myriad of other human conditions that cannot be neatly tallied into categories because the human body and human experience is vast and infinitely variable
But I don't think ableds really care about us and our health like they like to claim so they can harass us about it, do you?
#tag yourself I'm five out of ten#health food is gonna kill me one day i swear to God#vasovagal syncope/POTS was actually a fun disease to have since the treatment is honestly junk food#to get my sugar and sodium levels up quickly so i don't pass out#but then the United States government in their infinite compassion slashed my food stamps in half#and now i can't afford 'luxeries' like enough chips and candy i need to not faint and concuss myself. again#add the celiac and to a lesser extent the lactose intolerancy and now two fruit allergies...#and I'm paying three times the amount for like fifteen food items and that is accounting for the food inflation even ableds are facing#whatever food shortages ableds are going thru right now i swear to you it's much much worse if you're sick/disabled#stop policing what food people buy with the money their given i don't care if it's a paycheck or welfare#SOMETIMES I'll get a pitiful and defensive 'well how was i supposed to know?!' when i confront people bugging me about this#you don't know so shut your trap about it in the first place#most people just ignore the reason and accuse me of making up excuses to eat 'unhealthy' foods tho#health nut#ableism#systemic ableism#food#Salt blessed Salt

How do you feel about "character joins bloodclan" aus? Im curious about ur thoughts since youre really in tune with the themes of the series but personally i just hate them bc its ALWAYS aimed at 'unfortunate' characters and always ALWAYS ignores the fact that bloodclan is a horrible place in-canon and that they're just reflavoring the abuse and trauma the characters qent through to be more emo or goth themed.
Ravenpaw is ALWAYS a prime target for this and its like. Great. You took the character being abused by their mentor figure and is being harmed from the violent culture the clan has generated... and giving them an EMO mentor figure who will inevitably abuse them and harm them as a result of the violent culture the emo clan has generated. Sasha is another one I've noticed- you've put the woman who lost her kit and is struggling to survive with the others while being controlled and abused by someone who sees her as an outsider (aka alone and easy to isolate), and are gonna put her in a faction who specifically separates kin from one another to easily control them and who have canonically tried murdering those who stick with their family. What was gained here.
Like i know bloodclan is revamped in ur au (thank god for it) but in canon bloodclan is HORRIBLE. People ignore that in favor of putting their favs into bloodclan bc bloodclan is cool and killed tigerstar that one time bc of revenge. Ravenpaw becomes Scourge AUS are SO SO SO much worse bc of this too- sure you manage to point out how scourge and raven has roughly similar stories in their youth but you could also do something interesting and make an au where raven and scourge are FOILS and do a firestar/scourge thing, while pointing this comparison out!! Instead you just went "Ravenpaw emo now and is sad about beating up Firestar his friend" and basically kept everything the same.
Sorry im basically venting here but i just dont like how people forget that scourge in canon does NOT look out for the 'little guy', he's a murderer and abuser who wants to keep his subjects afraid and separated so that he alone has power over them. Bloodclan is not the cool strong goth group, its the group where two cats slaughter eachother over a piece of twoleg scraps, only for the survivor to die bc the food was poisonous to cats and no one knew bc theres no cohesive group that can pass that knowledge around. its a fucking horrible place to live. Im not saying that you cant do interesting "character in bloodclan" aus (a Rusty who lives in bloodclan who STILL wants to do good but is shaped by the horrid reality of bloodclan would be fun imo) but its so often used with already traumatized characters as a 'solution' or 'fix-it with some emotional issues involved' that i just foam at the mouth and howl like a rabid animal on principle at this point.
Hmm... I think for me, it doesn't tend to read that way for me when the fandom makes AUs for it. I'm coming at BloodClan from a point of really deep critique and frustration.
BloodClan's not a REAL place, and what that means is, every speck of how horrible it was is a choice the writers made to justify its treatment. It was something they actively decided, because, BloodClan was a tool to suddenly invalidate the previous 5 books of TPB so that the series could comfortably conclude there was no need to upset the status quo.
If you haven't read it before, I recommend this post I made on how Darkest Hour Is A Personal Disappointment, but anyway;
We spend a whole series on how Fireheart challenges a broken society, because he is different. Their xenophobia, how isolationism and glory get people killed, the way that Tigerstar's greatest asset is how respected he is... these are bad things. They're things that Fireheart fights for several books.
But then, in the LAST book, in the 11th inning, they introduce BloodClan. They're just evil. They have no nuance. The narrative bends over backwards to stress that this group of evil foreigners LOVES murder, hates friendship, and doesn't believe in our good god.
Suddenly, the Clan cats have to be EXTRA xenophobic and glorious to kill these filthy, murderous foreign hordes. Clan cat belief in their good god makes them stronger than the bloodthirsty barbarians. Firestar kills Scourge and we can feel happy and triumphant about it, when Tigerstar was killed a few chapters ago and given a tragic sendoff.
So, I encourage you to step back from an emotional response to how Filthy and Murderous this group was portrayed, and look at it as a writing choice.
When Tigerstar, known cat-racist and murderer of mixed-race people, is killed by Scourge in self-defense, he is grieved by Firestar and commended for his "good qualities". (and then they retconned in that it was actually secretly revenge all along, not just self defense, so this killing is extra evil)
When Scourge is killed, Firestar just thinks about how it's cool he's not going to heaven, and how all of the previously ferocious BloodClan warriors look so inferior to the forest Clans.
And so, with all that said,
I'm 100% in favor of how the fandom widely looks at this, says, "fuck that" and just makes them the Cool Goth Group. I'd argue pretty strongly that the least nuanced idea of that is still infinitely better than canon.
There was nothing there. It was literally just Xenophobia-Is-JustifiedClan. They literally hated love and friendship and banned families so that Clan cats would look good in comparison. Banned families. You don't get this level of stupid evil from anything else but an 80s cartoon.
Maybe I just don't see the AUs you tend to see (I curate my Tumblr experience very well and generally hang out in more adult-oriented spaces, I can imagine a place like Amino being mostly kids who tend to be immature. Edgelord Angstpiddle is just a normal part of growing up), but every project I see that gives me a glimpse of BloodClan Ravenpaws and Sashas come with such tweaks already assumed.
Like, these are examples I've seen,
They'll have Raven be involved with the formation of BloodClan
Scourge will actually be a character with some pity and mercy, like how he was in Rise of Scourge when his abusive siblings begged him for food, and he fed them before sending them away.
no ban on love and friendship. Lol. Lmao, even.
More of the social structure will be based around acquiring food for people in a 'harsh' environment, leading to that battle, instead of just Evil Foreign Greed (which canon!scourge only had after being almost killed by tigerstar, because he said "actually, in light of new information that you are a murderer, i need to reconsider our deal.")
BloodClan will be overhauled completely. I've seen this a few ways. Connecting them to SkyClan, or the Oakstar raids on Chelford, or even as a positive entity; a surprise ally. (VERY common with BloodClan Ravenpaw AUs I've seen).
Anyways... (Shrug), I dunno dude, it doesn't bother me that much.
#and remember. BloodClan is 1 of 3 actively hostile evil foreigner groups with no nuance.#4 if you also count Slash's rogues as their own entity and not just a continuation of One's.#This is NOT a treatment ever EVER given to Clanborn cat factions.#Berryh's hate crime club is being treated with more kindness than this.#None of Mud's supporters were punished for attempted murder or treason. Or anything.#And there is only ONE DF trainee who was Dark Forested after his death.#So anon I'm so sorry but I am your worst enemy u_u#We will fight at dawn#I think that one barley map is super awesome and it's the only time I ever really liked canon BloodClan#I like to imagine my own version in my head when I watch BloodClan-related art because canon BloodClan bugs me so bad#The xenophobia in this series is so blatant and yet so overlooked

also, not to be a perv but does the nudity setting do nothing??
#the closest thing i got to nudity was a naked woman soaked in blood thick enough to not see details#oh but a sex scene? UNDERWEAR#it is bugged or did some romances get special treatment or something#because as far as i can tell that setting does nothing#but it would make lucanis' romance scene so much funnier with my looming qunari lmao#dragon age veilguard#does this count as a spoiler technically...?

The Reds and the Feds: Little Trusts
The short version: i got carried away thinking about helmet hair and wanted to doodle something w Neko and Donut
The long version: under the cut
âOh!â Donut gasped. He was standing in the locker room just outside the showers at the latest base on their âtourâ of the Federal Army of Chorus. Outpost elevenâŚ.something?? Donut didnât know the specifics. What he did know was Private Micce was standing across the locker room from him right now and had the prettiest hair Donut had ever seen, himself included. Thick black curls, unleashed from the winding braid Micce usually wore his hair in under his helmet, fell in loose waves down to his hips. His hips! Sarge called Micceâs usual style âprincess hairâ, and frankly (hah) Donut couldnât help but agree. A tiara would look so good among the curve of the braid. But this? This was some elegant, mermaid, front cover of a novel kind of hair.
âYour hair!â Donut flapped his hand, finally catching Micceâs attention. The federal soldier turned, half towards Donut, and reached an ungloved hand up to his hair.
âWhat? Is something caught in it?â Micceâs brow furrowed and Donut shook his head.
âNo, no, sorry! Itâs just- itâs so pretty!â He laughed. Now, normally Franklin Delano Donut was much better at picking his words and saying the right things. But his lack of decent vocabulary could be blamed on spending the majority of the last 12 or so hours in a warthog with Washâ even for the Red team with their undeniable skill with the big guns and engines, twelve hours was a long drive. And Wash had insisted they spend as much of it as possible playing the quiet game. Now that might have worked on Caboose, but Donut knew that it was really just Wash trying to gently tell him to shut up, so he had cheated the âgameâ by switching off his external speaker and instead having a chat with Lopez on a private channel! So his brain was still coming out of El-Spanisho mode.
Micce just blinked at him. The thick curly bangs that never quite seemed to make it back into the main braid looked almost comical now, seeing the length of the rest of Micceâs hair. Donut didnât want to say that though, so instead he opted for a cheerful,
âYou should wear it down more! It looks so soft too! Is it hard to get it into that braid you wear all the time? Iâve heard that curls can be sooo unruly, especially with helmet hair,â Donut crossed the narrow room now, armor half forgotten by his temporary locker to engage Micce in conversation.
âHow do you keep it from getting kinky from the braid? Mine always has this like dip in it from where I tie it up, you have to share the secret with me!â
âOh,â Micce narrowed his eyes, and held up a hand to pause Donut for a moment. âI donât wear it down because, ya know, helmet, I think it is pretty soft but Iâm biased. It isnât super hard to braid especially if Iâm doing it myself because Iâm pretty quick, but it can be a hassle if someone else tries because they get lost in the curls which I think counts as unruly?â
Micce folded down one finger at a time as he answered Donutâs questions. He was so sweet like that, making sure he didnât miss anything! Donut appreciated it.
âAnddd I switch the direction and angle I braid it at, mostly because if Iâm undoing it I hate to put it right back where it was. Also I think itâs because itâs a loose braid? It settles better under my helmet but I think it also doesn't get as squished into the braid kinks because of that?â
Micce lowered his hand now that he had answered the questions and tilted his head curiously at Donut.
âYou have long hair?â
âOh! Right, duhââ Donut tugged off his helmet, tossing it towards the bench that had his gloves on them already. Then he reached up, taking a moment to find the little hair tie desperately fighting to keep his own hair up in the bun at the back of his head.
âIâve tried the looser hair style thing! But it just wonât stay up for me when I try, I donât know why,â Donut lamented, even as he coaxed his own hair free. He knew Micce had seen him without his helmet but, like Micce, it was hard to judge how long Donutâs hair actually was when it was tied up.
âTa-da!â Donut beamed once his hair was loose. It brushed against his scars, which still felt weird even after all these years. Micce blinked again, and not just the quick kind of blink that everyone does, but his weird slow blink. It always made Donut think of a cat, which, when he told Washington that little fact, Wash had scrunched up his nose in a funny expression that also reminded Donut of a cat. He wondered how Wash would look if he wore cat ears, actually, because Donut was certain Micce could pull them off. Micce had a very cat-like face, especially with his cleft lip and the little fang poking out over his bottom lip because of it.
âActually, wait, is that why Pavoz calls you Neko all the time? Oh, thatâs so sweet! What a fun way to get a nickname,â
âHe calls me Neko because my first name is Necoda,â Micce answered, seemingly unphased by Donutâs tirade about cat ears that had not been entirely intended to be said out loud. Oh well. âAnd because no one pronounces Micce right. Neko is just easier,â
âWait, I'm not saying it right?â Donut crossed his arms. âWhy didnât you tell me sooner! Oh gosh, Iâm sorry- how do I say it right?â
âYou- you canât. Itâs hard, itâs likeââ Micce frowned, tilting his head side to side. âItâs a throat thing? I donât really know how to explain it, but you have to make two sounds at once. I donât mind whichever sound is easier for people to make to be the version they use, itâs just⌠not correct? If you want to call me Neko like Pavoz does instead, thatâs fine, but how youâve been saying it is fine too. I donât care,â
Donut hesitated because usually when someone says they donât care, they didnât look so sad about it. And Micceâ Nekoâ did look sad. Why, Donut couldnât begin to guess butâ
âIf itâs a Chorusan name, why canât anyone else say it right? That just seems rude of them,â
âOh, itâs not Chorusan,â Neko laughed. âIâm not from Chorus,â He snapped like something occured to him and pointed a finger pistol at Donut with the same hand and a grin. âHey! Something I have in common with you guys! Neat, huh?â
âYouâre not? Wait- are you lying again?â Donut squinted.
âIâm not, but if you think Iâm lying then asking me doesnât matter, does it?â Neko winked. âI could be lying about lying, or Iâm being completely honest! âThe next statement is true, the previous statement is falseâ kind of shit. Youâll never know the answer,â Micce shook his head. âBut we were talking about hair, not tragic backstories,â
âOh! Right!â Donut could see the obvious topic change but you know what? Fair enough! It was clearly something Neko didnât want to talk about, and Donut did have one more question about his hair anyways.
âCan I play with your hair? Like, while youâve got it down?â Donut grinned. âNo gloves! Wouldnât want to catch on anything,â
Neko blinked his weird cat blink, then shrugged.
âYeah, sure. Just donât tug,â
âI would never tug on someone unless they wanted me too!â

Okay serious question. How bad are mosquito bites to most people? Because I always considered them a minor annoyance that I donât even really notice 90% of the time, but people talk about them like they are the Worst Thing To Ever Happen and having itchy bumps on their body justifies hatred and destruction of an entire species of animal. Are mosquito bites actually that bad? Have I just become numb to it because I attract any bug in a mile radius?
#assuming disease isnât an issue. bc obviously they can carry disease but thatâs not like their fault#we should be more concerned about treatment and prevention than hatred against a species of small bug
