"We can get through this by working together, reach out to your friends, community is all we have, a social network will be your security in the world, now is the time to lean on others!"

I do agree, and it's scientifically sound (pretty sure there is data about how people with better social networks live longer and etc) but also....augh..... what about the severe social issues, difficulty to leave the house, physical issues which lead to like zero socialization energy a majority of the time, etc. etc. Social support can be a replacement for structural support, but.. I guess I just wish it didn't have to be. Community is extremely difficult to build, even moreso if you're someone who has issues with social cues or group conversations or even just being around others in the first place. And blah, nuance, of course I'm just complaining or maybe being too negative or maybe misunderstanding, but, I hardly have the energy to brush my hair once every 2 months.. how am I supposed to maintain a wide social network and be active in a Community and Join Groups lol... sometimes it kind of feels like "er.. well if thats my only option then...... ruh roh". It's overwhelming

#Kind of like some post I saw a long time ago talking about how even the meanest shittiest most difficult to get along with #elderly people or whaever still deserve to have some sort of systems in place to support them so they're not just relying on the #grace of relatives or etc. who may not be able to deal with them. Not saying that I'm like mean and cruel or anything #but the fact of the matter is in most social situations either I am compromising or the other person is. Not in like an ~`ouuu im so weirdd #nobody willever understand my quirky swagg hee heee~' way but like a.. Just factually the things that make me happy and comfortable #are often incompatible with people. The way I communicate and process things is different from the way other people do and that #is always a barrier. I cannot have ''easy''' interactions. Even with 'understanding' people there is nearly always a significant #amount of effort. You can't walk into a group of people and then be like ''okay you guys all have to wear #masks and you also cant play music too loud and also we should communicate turns of speaking very clearly so group conversations #arent too stressful. and also i need this and that and we have to do this and that and '' etc. etc. You CAN. And some people will #go along with that. but they will ALWAYS secretly resent you for it. You will be the one person they're relieved to not have to be around.#theyre glad when you dont show up since they can go back to doing things however they want and not masking and all these boring #annoying things. OR you can say none of that and just deal with the loud music and the talking and the unmasked people. but then #YOU'RE compromising. and no matter how nice they are it's exhausting to be around and youre just further alienated #while in the presence of people and uncofmrtoabel the whole time.#Which I'm not saying the only form of community is a group setting specificially but just giving that as an example lol #I just wish there were a better option than ''well learn to socialize normally or just suffer then'' . Which I know is not what people are #saying. I guess I just always feel a bit scared when 'community is the answer'. Since its not like 'oh im just socially anxious and need to #get out of my shell~!' or something thats really that remedy-able. It's like.. my mostly unchangeable physical health issues combined #with the mostly unchangable literal way that my brain processes sensory informationand other things means that interacting with #others in a normal and easy way is incredibly difficult and often exhausting especially to maintain in any longform fashion. So then #when it's like ''the answer to staying safe is to maintain longform social connections!! :3 just reach out!!'' then.. ermm... O_O #also I'm not even one of the cutesy shy emotional hermits that's nervous. I'm the Bad Stereotype emotionless robotic cold seeming #looms in the corner of the room type of thing so people have less pity on you in that way. -_- ANYWAY gghj #I need like.. a designated social representative or something.. When I did work in that bookshop forever ago they gave me a #person who basically was just with me to help communicate with others on my behalf and supervise me and stuff. I need that.. Some #more extraverted person I can latch onto and they can maintain the Social Support Network for me and I can just be their +1 to all #of the Social Things and community. I have helpful skills I can contribute to other people and stuff it's just like.. I cant socialize lol #I cook food or something for you.. then you keep me in contact with Community.. a deal. (but then what about when I'm too sick to #contribute? as is often the case. there's not much place for people like me in communities sometimes i fear.. sigh.) ***

Every time I see people responding to less than perfect institutional responses to their demands by scrawling “I’M NOT READING THAT” over them (either on the paper or in photo edits) I want to shake them

#us politics #vent adjacent #current events #this is very much about five different things at once but honestly I’ve thought this way since 2016 #If you can’t be bothered reading it if it’s not exactly what you want then how are you ever going to build a coalition?#I hope the leftists who I keep seeing do this on tumblr (not @-ing anyone this was in the for you) figure this out soon #bc whether you’re talking about a college or a country #if you want institutional change you need to be able to work with a broad spectrum of people #and acting like my little brother and throwing a tantrum when you don’t get what you want is both really childish #and also probably not going to help bc now you don’t have a good relationship with the administration #so they likely won’t be interested in your further demands bc they know you’re not going to be happy no matter what they do #and other people might not want to work with you if you can’t compromise

I have a friend whose favorite series is a•t, which, Yknow, I am trying so hard to be polite about having extremely different tastes. but I cherish & support her and when it comes to bday presents I’m either waiting for someone to express a need/want for smth during any time of the year & just buying it & going ‘happy early/late birthday’ OR I’m planning months in advance (& sometimes collaborating w/ folks) for The Perfect Present but I can never bring myself to get something I’m halfhearted on… I’ve been on & off scrolling thru mercari/ebay/amazon/aliexpress and feeling very Eh abt the quality/size/price and was almost close to just getting two small cheap but cute plushies (13 cm & 10 cm :/), then on ebay I saw smth that was 20cm (good size) and actually very cute, but it was like $50 for the plush & $20 for shipping and while I cherish my pal I am not dropping $70 on a plushie (AND ESPECIALLY NOT ON A•T MERCH). so I do a exact match search of the specific brand and find one (1) online store selling it for $20 (incl shipping) (they’re having a 20% off sale). which is suspiciously low so I made sure to look up reviews outside the site & it looks legit, so I’m gonna buy it & hope that even if it’s not legit it’ll be an acceptable quality bootleg, and if it isn’t even that then I still have a month and a half to get one of my backup plans. in a week we’ll see if I get a Perfectionism Win.

#my ramblings #NEVER COMPROMISE YOUR VISION!!!#nightmare scenario is she already has it but I’ve been to her apt and I’m sure I would’ve seen it #plus as a fan I think it’s great to have duplicates #double the cuddle and also if one gets destroyed there’s a backup #sometimes mom does take me by the shoulders and go like You Don’t Have To Buy Birthday Gifts For Everyone #but #well first of all let’s shove aside the standard blah blah it’s nice to give friends things and see them be happy #1) when a gift lands well I like being right #actually that’s it I just like being right #the other day a friend was like ‘you know how I have bipolar’ and I was like ‘huh? I didn’t actually’#and she was like ‘I think we’ve had this conversation like three times’ (sorry)#but I do remember her aesthetics and interests and the types of clothes she was browsing one time when we sat at the desk together #about two years ago when she offhandedly mentioned that she was trying to figure out lighting that would fit a bar she was asked to design #it just stuck in my head and one time I was in a place that had lighting that reminded me of what she was trying to go for #so I sent her a pic of it #anyway yeah I have a really bad memory except when I have a really good memory

I must admit I'm getting this horrible image in my head of Tarn as that type of creepy guy who donates way too much money to a streamer and then absolutely loses it when he hears they're not single.

That's probably accurate lol. Although unlike (seemingly) most people in this fandom, I blame Megatron more for turning Tarn into that kind of obsessed freak than I do Tarn for being a freak. I mean, my view is basically "you reap what you sow/the monster you created turned around and bit you" so I don't really have sympathy for Megatron with regards to Tarn showing up and ruining his life lol. I actually really like the DJD coming in MTMTE as basically the living embodiment of karma and Megatron's comeuppance about not being able to run away from/ignore his past.

Like blah blah "no matter how sad your backstory is you're still responsible for your own actions" but also Megatron is literally 100% the reason Tarn is Like That, and Megatron also used parasocial manipulation, propaganda, and his grandiose personality to manipulate the Decepticons into worshipping/following him without question. So like. It's fiction, I don't have to be all "well they're all problematic" I can just be like "lol, lmao even" and point and laugh as Megatron gets fucked up by Tarn and the DJD because he can't talk his way out of this problem.

#squiggle answers #i'm not mad at you or thinking you're saying anything #i'm just very fond of dying of the light and i enjoy megatron suffering #i love how dying of the light is like megatron's personal torment nexus of getting trapped by his bad decisions #but also getting other people dragged down with him by accident #and then he's so fucking pathetic that he can't even compromise his 'pacifism' to save those people he dragged down #and then he lashes out in anger and becomes violent and hateful again and slaughters the whole DJD #i love that shit. love when megatron is fucked up and dysfunctional #i'm not saying i wanted him to become WORSE and like die a horrible fate per se #i'm just saying that i disagree with most of the fandom when they're like aww let this old man rest and tarn should fuck off he's a loser #i'm like nah. put megatron in the blender. don't let him just suddenly decide to be a pacifist and then that's it. make him fuck up #ough sorry it's just. i like megatron getting better but i also like him staying bad lol #like i want him to get redeemed but i also still want him to be fucked up and full of anger and hatred. if that makes sense #but yeah. not to be a tarn defender or anything but like #sometimes the fandom seems like it listened too much to the part where megatron was like #'i was happy i was at peace and you ruined everything'#meanwhile i'm sitting there like: yeah they ruined it. and so what. it's your fault. you don't get to be peaceful and happy #when you still have mistakes that you need to address and do something about instead of running away #muah. muah. muah. love dying of the light #i wanted to rip megatron apart from being so pathetic but i was also like. awww sad old man #mostly i wanted to rip him apart tho lol

Hi! Just popping in to say that you're wonderful! And plz don't feel pressured to change designs that you don't want to, or add details that is too much. Your art is yours, and your wellbeing comes first! Have a nice day/night!

Thank you for your kind intentions, but I didn't ask any (closed) questions on the survey about things that I was unwilling to change~ I have my preferences, but ultimately I do want to please as many people as possible.

These are the facts: NSR has a low amount of merch, fan-made or otherwise. The most substantial things are the plush, but all 3 were limited, and there's only 3 of the 16 main characters (12 if you count 1010 as 1 character). Even including the official stuff, you could probably count on less than one hand every piece of physical merch that has been made for any given character from the game.

My philosophy is this: I already draw whatever I want and post it for free for the enjoyment of the masses. All of my initial designs are already out there, so if I wasn't making them into keychains, then I've already achieved my usual goals when posting art.

But if I'm going to be one of the limited sources of merch, which is to say that I'm making something that people will pay for, then I want it to make the most amount of people happy. For some characters, I will be the only source of merch for them, so it oughtta be the best I can possibly make it.

I promise, I'm not doing anything that completely compromises my desires and/or values, and I will make every design in a way that will make me happy first, and hopefully y'all happy second. Because ultimately, I can't make *everyone* happy, so at the very least I need to make myself happy first and foremost, which I intend to do.

Sometimes it's just a matter of, "How do I do the thing they want, but in a way that pleases me?" Sometimes I can't do it (as was the case with Fyra's guitar), but I want to at least try to meet y'all half-way if I disagree with the masses.

#thanks for the ask!#keychain feedback #i appreciate that y'all value my health and happiness above all else #but the purpose of this project isn't for my happiness outside the intrinsic joy i get from creating things:#the purpose of this project is to provide something which this fandom is lacking but wanting #which is collectible trinkets of their favorite little guys (gender neutral)#if i did ONLY what i wanted to do #then i would have just made kliff for myself and have been done with this already #but this is something that a lot of people wanted so i want to provide what i can #it's not like it's some noble purpose or goal: ultimately i'm only going this far because i'll profit from it. this isn't a charity #but it's also just nice and fun to have a little something of your favorite guy ya know?#but when your favorite guy is a niche character in an already niche fandom that's not so easy to achieve #but since i have the means to make that happen for at least a handful of people #then why not do it in a way that'll make the most people happy?#and sometimes that does mean i'll have to compromise what i want for what the collective wants and that's okay.#that's just the way it is sometimes

one thing about me is that I'm never not gonna be obsessed with soulmates as a horror concept

#like. there's just so much there #not even in a 'state mandated partner' way but in a 'i need to be close to you on a deep gut level that i have no control over even if i #don't like you or we make each other unhappy'#like the idea of having someone who's 'made' for you or you being 'made' for someone else and how horrifying that would be when you really #get down to it is just so compelling to me on a thematic and narrative level. you can't be happy with them but you also can't be happy #without them and they feel the exact same way so you're just trapped in each other's orbit unable to move closer or farther away #because even if you do love them and like them...do you really? is it you or is it the compulsion? is it them as they are or them as they #exist for you in this position?#your autonomy is so deeply compromised that yes AND no are both on some level meaningless #or maybe they die before you meet them so then you're stuck with an ingrained need for someone you've never met and never will. you can't #really grieve them because you don't know them but you also can't just let them go because it's wired into you to care so there's #literally nothing you can do to process this and you're just stuck #idk man it's just so miserable i can't get over it

#YEAH I MAKE AN EFFORT THATS WHY I ONLY COMPLAIN ABOUT THE STUFF I REALLY CANNOT DEAL WITH LONGTERM #god #it's just #incredibly annoying how my mom just goes OUT OF HER WAY to shrink the scope again when i just explained to her what would work #''so you can't speak up and if we do nothing it doesn't work'' yeah no shit then speak up YOU then. like i just said you probably should #i mean. you did say you don't control what guests bring. BUT YES YOU DO #yes you can speak to them about it #you can discuss and make it less systematic #you can express your thoughts #so you actually just lie to sympathize with me but you don't give a shit #and yet you still act like you tried everything like you just don't know what else could be done #i told you what was my problem i told you what would make it better #say you have other priorities #say you expect me to make an effort and not to be the fucking freak i was my whole childhood #that you were kind enough to tolerate most of the time #even though i was sooooo fucking weird when you knew i had problems but couldn't categorize them so why would i need to do things different #say you don't understand why i hurts me if i can ''try to make an effort''#sorry the only kind of family reunion we have is food-based and i can't try and have good relationships w my family if i dont can it #and eat whatever's in front of me so that they can be happy i'm finally normal and grown up #god jesus christ #yeah it IS your house and i don't get to veto or force anything #dont act surprised when your smart plan for dealing with difficult things is expect your kid to shut the fuck up about any problem they hav #and then huh. weird. your kid isn't happy.#i try to foster a good relationship holy shit #i try to go past the things i don't like and compromise and engage w them #how is that not doing my best #i'm sorry i don't feel great when difficult things happen and also i can't control any of it #when you can and you've also shown me many time i can't expect actually meaningful support from you #broadcasting my misery #vent

I just. I would love a fic where Sebastian isn’t treated like a spoiled brat for wanting *nders dead for what he did. I would love to read a fic where Hawke doesn’t break up with him and is treated by the narrative like they made a righteous, self-sacrificing decision.

#obviously I’m venting and people can write whatever they want but it sucks getting kind of into a story and then they do THAT to your boy #venting #and this has happened more than once in a SebHawke fic #where they’re in lvoe and happy but then the chantry explosion happens and Hawke breaks it off bc sebastian can’t compromise on *nders #understandably #I don’t care how you dress it up his pseudo mother figure and home for well over a decade was destroyed #this is the second time he’s lost a family of course he’s not being rational #and you wanna spare the murderer and act like he’s a spoiled child???? fuck off #I don’t usually vague but FUCK

#continuing that thought #I do appreciate when people remark that I seem happy and confident with my life #because I have WORKED to get to that point #it was a bumpy road #still is plenty of the time #and it’s hard to accept that I’m not broken just because I’m not where teen-me thought I’d be by this point #when your friends tell you that you have to compromise in order to succeed #and people tell you that you have to change who you are to get what you want #yeah that hurts guys #definitely know your faults and weaknesses and work on them and grow and learn #but don’t make yourself into an entirely different person thinking it’ll make you happy #(really it’s a blessing I’m too lazy to put in that kind of effort)#(I’ll work on kindness and patience and I’ll learn to be a good host and a good neighbor but if you don’t like my humor you can just go)#ok I’m done #now I want a nap shopping is exhausting

Hi! This may be a bit of a rant but there is something I really wanna share with someone so I hope you don't mind.

I have a friend who I knew 'cause we were in the same club at uni. He's very eloquent and smart, so I really respect him (but mostly from afar 'cause I was shy lol). And then I saw him post about ST season 4, and about Will in particular so I mustered up my courage and messaged him "hey have u seen the parallels between Will and Vecna?". And we started talking about other ST-related stuff. We even ranted a lot about vol 2 after watching that lol. We also talked about books and TV shows and overall, I was glad ST helped me make more friends.

When the free Palestine movement became popular last year, I was not surprised when I saw him post about Gaza or Rafah 'cause well... he's just like a typical queer, chronically online, twitter user lol (both complimentary and derogatory, sometimes I find his humor funny, sometimes I just wanna roll my eyes). We have never talked about this topic and honestly I really don't feel like. I just simply carry on sharing posts and stories about discrimination against Jewish and Israeli people and anti-Hamas stuff.

And then recently I saw him posting overtly anti-Israel things, like "u think this is hot now, wait til you go to hell for supporting Israel". Not gonna lie, I chuckled when I saw that 'cause first of all, I am an atheist so whatever man I don't believe in hell anyway. Second, I don't know what other non-Jewish people who support Israel (as in 'its existence is legitimate and the people there deserve peace', not the government itself) may feel about hell, but as far as I'm concerned, Jewish people don't seem to put that much weight on the concept of hell and heaven, right?. So like "bro you should have choose something else more menacing than that lol"

Now I can scroll through that post but what irks me the most is what he chose to share today.

https://x.com/redstreamnet/status/1841561550378651724

I find it so freaking ironic how after everything that has happened in Iran recently (and how many Iranians have spoken out against the Islamic republic), this is the first Iran-related thing he posted about. Like I'm so close to just forward to him a video of Iranians celebrating the death of Nasrallah or comments/posts of Iranians thanking Israel for it, or overall just people between these two countries wishing each other peace and freedom. I'm not sure if I can call what I'm feeling "anger" 'cause it's not exactly strong as when I see people deny October 7. But there is surely a sense of resignation.

I don't see those pro-pal people as bad or evil. I actually believe that most of them have good intentions, but to me, they are too caught up in their self-righteousness and black-and-white views to acknowledge the grey area of this whole mess.

I saw you own up to your own hypocrisy a few days ago and ngl I admire you for that lol. I only think of humans as "paradoxical by nature" so a person saying conflicting stuff is normal to me. But it's annoying as hell when someone doesn't think they are capable of hypocrisy or double standards.

Anyways, have a great day. Thank you for reading all this. Sorry it's kinda long. Being concise is not my strong suit lol.

hey anon, let’s hug. if you want?

i rly don’t have much to offer bc my brain is currently mush, you probably just wanted to vent and that’s ok. i just didn’t want to leave you on read. 💚

look, i’m using jquinn even though he annoys me atm but i just couldn’t resist, lmao. like yeah, #me.

#beth answers #i hear you and everything #also your friend. ask yourself if you’re happy with him. whatever that means. it sounds like you’re willing to agree to disagree but #he may not?? like some people just can’t compromise on some issues and that’s ok. but tbh the whole geopolitics in the middle east is #complex and has a very long history. it’s not as clear cut as saying israel is a product of western imperalism or white supremacy #nor is every arab country having similar values/democracies. even islamic terror orgs don’t always align #like consider the situation with that woman who was kidnapped by the isis and she was being held in gaza even though isis and hamas aren’t #exactly allies. and people suggest gaza is some sort of criminal outpost in the middle east #which could be true to an extent but it’s important to recognise it’s not fair on the civilians. even if they share hamas’ values bc of #their upbringing. but we gotta be careful bc we can’t steer towards racism of low expectations bc arabs are very capable and intelligent #like it’s obvious to me hamas are seen as noble savages but referred to as freedom fighters. i just think it’s important to be balanced #people can say israel is a safe haven for paedos and sex offenders which is bullshit and based in antisemitism (thanks jeffery epistein)#in every community there are bad people and they shouldn’t be held as the standard. which should be applied to ~bad orgs/states too #it’s just not easy! even geopolitics experts struggle. otherwise we’d have world peace but lmao #hey looks like i managed to say something after all #umm tldr you know your friend but you know yourself too and it’s important to have boundaries #but not to let something get in the way especially if it doesn’t concern either of you personally in the grand scheme of things #if that makes sense. like i’m not gonna ditch a friend if they think the moon landing is fake #unless they make it their whole personality and it gets in the way of our relationship #so you know. go with your gut. look at the big picture but details are important too #which i recognise is a privileged position to have and possibly ignorant #but i have to consider myself and the people i love. then my community and the place i live. then the country #then everything else. even though i want to help with things out of my control but i also feel like i shouldn’t have to feel like this?#like i’m not someone who signed up for this. ppl who have should be able to do so to the best of their abilities. i’m just not that person #ok i’ll shut now lmao mwah #sorry this is late btw

#i am not gods strongest soldier #she'll talk to someone who will say stuff like you're useless to her and take it fine but. she won't even stand to be in the same room w me #what difference is it to be being in your room playing games with the same people all the time vs. like idk.#aren't you just transferring who you're dependent on. is the difference just the level of commitment. you feel like you can leave whenever #nothing's changed really somehow. you're still doing the same things you did while back then. just that you also avoid me.#and god i don't know. i tell myself I'll care less I'll get over it it is what it is and i try so hard to be busy and not think abt it #but i can't sleep w/o watching something these days or else it's on my mind and that's been shit for my sleep quality #it's the first thing that pops up in my mind when i wake up. i get distracted in class sometimes by it. it's not like i can control it #it's just like the more you try to not think abt sth the more it comes up type of deal.#and I'm trying so hard but i think this is legitimately. gonna make me spiral and I'm trying my best to have a grip and not go there #i have things I'm looking forward to and I'm supposed to b having fun but it's hard when. There's that looming in the back of your head.#ugh ok rational choice let's go. i don't try to talk to her: we don't talk. she doesn't try to talk to me. i suffer in silence.#maybe I'll get over it find something new that feels like a safehouse but that's a big if. and idk how long i can hold on for #i try to talk to her: maybe it could go well? but maybe she'll just get more avoidant #i don't really get it it's like she can respond and laugh to stuff i say when in a group setting but she gets so guarded when it's just me #like subconsciously you know I'm not a threat you can allow yourself to have fun around me.#but you're consciously putting a guard up around me and reinforcing the negative feelings when it's just me #god. i don't. but. at least it sounds like she's happy for now so. that's all i ask for. if she doesn't want to see me i don't show up #i want to see her but. i mean. There's really no compromise or middle ground here.#they say time heals everything but it's already been so long. i don't even know why I'm still attached. she's like a different person.#the person i loved appears every now and then just never in front of me and I'm trying my best but I've never been good with loss #how do you come to terms with something being dead and alive at the same time. how do you make up the mind to drive the nail in the casket.#i can't make myself put it into the dirt when i catch a glimpse of the person i once knew. that hasn't changed for anyone else. just me.#vent #delete later

You ever watch HGTV and truly wish the couple would divorce?

#this lady #ooooh my god #she bulldozes over her husband constantly #refuses to compromise #want him to upkeep the house and yard despite him wanting a condo #her expression when he talks?#it’s so annoyed even when he’s just happy ab something #she keeps saying get what I want #and it’s like #do you love your husband? At all?

early summer is such a good movie but it makes me sad

#its like... trying to figure out the balance between what makes you happy and how you feel abt your family #and then like oops you accidentally tore your family apart and the thing you chose wasn't even what you actually wanted to do #like everyone is still upset even when you take the compromise choice... its just like super sad :(#in another world noriko and her friend would have found their own place to live and made a life together doing all the fun things they want
