https://www.tumblr.com/jeonscatalyst/763656696583290880/tkkers-never-listen-to-what-they-actually-say-if?source=share
I don't really check on any tags only because they make me want to counter attack their post because those posts would be full of lies and Projection and their takes really makes me frustrated with how they project so in order to not get mad at what they're saying i don't check up on any but since Tumblr wants to give me updates on what others are saying i got two post from tkkrs recommended and in one post it's the anons asking if jungkook really meant AYS trips were best of his life or if he was lying (didn't read what the blogger replied tho) and another one was the blogger (diff blogger) itself saying "what's big deal in staying at some place before going on trip" i mean yes it ain't a big deal even i didn't make any big deal out of it but it's the "staying at some place before going on trip" took me out because they said it like as if jikook were staying at some hotel that company booked or something and not exactly at jk's home itself that too after he came back from US. Mind you these were the same people who dragged jimin saying jimin doesn't even know jk's home because him and jk don't go to each other's home After that vhopekook live where vhope came over at jk's place after jk sent a message asking members to come over if anyone's free and vhope went there and later on left lol. No because I'm sure if tae said same thing they would be on cloud nine but since it's jikook it's either jimin is lying or it ain't a big deal and it's just "some place" and the audacity to say jimin don't know jk's home after jm posted jk's picture on his b'day in 2022 from jk's home where jm visited him with hobi lol.
lol anon
I’m sure I got sent some posts of some blogger swearing that Jk lied when he said AYS trips were his best trips ever but honestly anon, what did you expect tkkrs to say? That was a huge slap in the face to them after they spent a year singing about “private trips” only for Jk to go and say AYS trips were the best trips he ever had in his entire life. Mind you “entire life” which means including the “private trips” taekookers thought was the beginning and end of the universe so what else did you expect them to say? Their whole world blew up in their faces when Jk said that because imagine how painful it must have been for them hear that trips that were taken with Jimin the member who they claim he hates and cannot stand and which also happened to be “company content” were the most impactful for Jungkook? The heartbreak!!!
Jimin saying he spent the night at Jk’s before their Jeju trip shouldn’t really be a big deal because duhhh they are friends and have been band mates for over a decade but it was, especially to them and not in a good way (even though they’ll never admit it) because if you think about it, why would Jimin be with Jk, spending the night with him after a trip instead of Tae if taekook is real? Everyone knows that after trips, people just want to go back home to their lovers and not necessarily their friends but here we had Jungkook going back home, Jimin going over there, Jungkook cooking for him and them spending the night together with Tae nowhere in sight. Doesn’t really read as coupley for taekook now does it especially considering how much tkkrs had been loud about Tae (and Hobi) being with Jk at night before Jk had to leave for LA even though they know there is a huge difference now because we don’t know that Taekook have ever spent a night together before or after a trip like Jikook have. Tkkrs tend to downplay or invalidate anything that Jikook do which their ship doesn’t. They downplayed spending bdays and couple holidays together because their ship doesn’t, they downplayed spending nights and alone time together because their ship doesn’t, they downplayed sharing cars till their ship did it a few times, they downplayed matching clothes till they thought their ship did it and they are downplaying Jikook spending the night together before and after a trip even though that is something they thought their ship did and celebrated it like hell.
Accepting that the AYS trips were the best trips Jk ever had in his life like he said would mean that Jk preferred his company, time and activities on the trips with Jimin over those with Tae. It would mean that the “private” doesn’t hold as much weight and they desperately want it to hold and tkkrs can’t accept that because “privet” is all they have. They can’t accept that Jikook spending the night together before a trip means anything because deep down they know that if taekook was real like they want it to be, Jungkook would want to go home to Tae not Jimin especially since they claimed that Tae joined AYS to spend time with Jk since he was travelling so much (even though Tae was on his phone the entire time). So anon, they just cannot do or say anything else. Jimin spending the night with Jk before a trip doesn’t prove they are real but it kinda debunks taekook just like jikook spending bdays, couple holidays and other special days and times together debunks taekook because why would Jungkook want to do all those things and spend all those moments with anyone other than the person he is romantically involved with. Jikook spend bdays, couple holidays, nights, spend nights with each other after trips while taekook go to concerts, musicals, premieres and go on ski trips where Jk ends up being left behind alone because Tae wants to go back home with friends. Even if you didn’t know the first thing about relationships which one of these seem like things what a couple would actually do? See my point? They have no choice anon.

Okay.
I only meant to make one SJM post cause Ik how certain girls like to tussle
But since the gwynriels and elucians decided to mess w me EVEN THO I SAID TO LOOK AWAY IF YOU GET EASILY TRIGGERED…
There is only one thing to do:
Talk more about why Elriel is not based in delusion — unlike some ships (not naming names, if you take offense that’s your mind questioning things)
Again, I am giving my PERSONAL OPINION. I even said at the end of my last post that I am not the author and I will love & respect whatever SJM does, which some of y’all can’t echo. That’s sad. This is a fictional world.
DISCLAIMER: if you’re easily triggered by elriel/elucian/gwynriel…l o o k a w a y
DISCLAIMER#2: I am unapologetic cause this is my page :)
Also, stop hitting my line with the “I wasn’t going to respond to this but…” or “you’re so anti…” like 1, if you weren’t going to respond, then don’t. It’s not that serious where the world is BEGGING for your opinion. And 2, I’m not anti anything, I’m pro-logic, again if that offends you then that’s a convo for you and you not you and me.
Now onto the main event…
Azriel
My mans is being dragged through the mud both in the books and online. We say we “love him” but are ignoring what he wants and babes, that’s Elain. If you don’t like her personally, that’s not how Az is feeling, that’s how YOURE feeling. Gwyn has one chapter (+1 sentence) of where I can even attempt to grasp at what Gwynriel’s quote as bible, but again, AZ AND ELAIN HAVE 3 BOOKS. Y’all are acting like Rhys in Az’s bonus chapter and if Rhys couldn’t make his stance acceptable, y’all definitely can’t.
Elain
Again, I say, if you do not like the lady pictured above, stop reading ACOTAR cause she ain’t going anywhere. To be so for real, I didn’t mind Elain at first, meaning I didn’t care whether or not she was included in any story whatsoever. But as I read ACOWAR and ACOFAS, I started realizing that there’s something so lovely about having a character who is innately good and wants/practices peace in a world of animosity and ugliness. She brings beauty in all areas of her life and I think that there’s nothing bad about being “boring” cause that just means your life ain’t a dang mess (*cough* *cough* everybody else in this book)
So here is where I debunk all the claims I have grown tired of ignoring:
• #1 - “He hadn’t gotten that far into his planning beyond the fantasies he’s pleasured himself to.”
(Picture credit: unknown) Get a good look cause that’s what he’s doing at night when he thinks about ELAIN. (It’s canon, so cry to yourself)
So, y’all really think you got us here, huh? So, my man Azriel blatantly admits to thinking of Elain when he wants to be intimate and y’all STILL want your girl to be with this man?
Ugh
Anyway, so Azriel hadn’t planned a relationship with Elain…OKAY???? Did you expect this man to have a map laid out about how he’s going to steal Lucien’s mate??? Do y’all even know Azriel? Like, be so for real rn.
Idk about y’all but when I have a crush on someone, I’m not thinking about how to steal them from the rest of the world, I’m imagining kissing them or going on cute dates. Not how I’ll actually make it happen. And ik y’all do that too with your favorite celebrities so stop playing.
He has a crush. Can you let the man figure out if Elain even wants him to act on it before he plans a 12-step mission on making Lucien disappear forever?
Azriel doesn’t want to force his emotions on anyone (as seen with Mor) so of course he’s not going to act or plot without confirmation that the other person in the party wants that. I.E. why he hadnt tried anything with Mor in all the CENTURIES that he liked her.
So, yeah, consider that point invalid.
• #2 - Lucien is Elain’s mate
(PC: @shauna_the_author) *sigh* This one cannot be dubunked, unfortunately, because it is true. You got me here.
BUT
Elain is more likely to marry Nuala and Cerridwen before she spends the rest of her life with Lucien.
And it has nothing to do with Lucien. It really, really doesn’t. Elain simply doesn’t like him. Y’all were in my comments like “oh he didn’t really sell out Elain and Nesta, he didn’t know”. OKAY. But Elain literally says in ACOWAR that she knows Lucien as two things: Feyre’s friend and the MAN WHO SOLD THEM OUT TO HYBERN
Who cares if it isn’t true, that’s what Elain thinks and with her in mind, you can’t say that this bond means anything more to her than Lucien having some ownership of her which she doesn’t like at all. She even tells Graysen that she doesn’t care Lucien is her mate (“I belong to no one, but my heart belongs to you.”)
Whereas with Azriel, my girl is practically skipping into his arms; talking with him about her dream garden, getting him not one but two solstice gifts, almost-kissing him, recoiling at Cassian’s dagger but actively using Azriel’s…
Idk about y’all but if someone who was fated to be with me was acting this way with another girl, I’d drop him like a hot potatoe. AND AS LUCIEN SHOULD. He deserves someone who wants him, not someone who, as even Lucien said in ACOWAR when he was questioning if Elain was “worth it”, is shackled to him.
I harbor no ill will toward this dreamy man, but it ain’t gonna happen so do Elain a favor and lose her number, k?
• #3 - Sarah wouldn’t do the 3 brothers with 3 sisters, it’s too cliche
Write your own book then. Fan fiction is a thing. If the ONLY thing preventing you to see reason is the possibility of a cliche in a book about kingdoms and fairies and magic then your priorities are so out of shape I won’t even spend the time explaining it to you.
This is SARAH’s WORLD. If she wants to be cliche and have the three female protagonists end up with the three male protagonists then let her. Omg.
• #4 - That Gwynriel scene tho
(NOTE THE PICTURE) Oh, you mean the bonus chapter that featured thoughts about Elain? Not that one? Oh, then maybe you mean the other bonus chapter that featured thoughts about Elain? No? You mean the scene with Gwyn…hmmm
OH! You mean the 2 page conversation about training and why he couldn’t sleep (cause of Elain) and the subsequent regift of Elain’s present to Gwyn. Yeah, I know about that but why are we talking about it? Cause that means Az likes Gwyn? Huh?
That’s how delulu y’all sound. And if I hear another “you’re the ribbon Az”, one more time I’ll scream. THE RIBBON WAS ABOUT TRAINING NOT GWYN WANTING TO SLEEP WITH THE MAN. We are talking about the same girl who hadn’t left a library in god knows how long because of a sexual trauma and y’all are forcing her onto another man??
Gwyn was focused on coming into herself and mastering the ways of the Valkyrie. Nesta meant Gwyn found another obstacle in Az that she would have to overcome to become a Valkyrie. The only man Gwyn was concerned about was Cassian and that’s cause he was getting it on with Nesta. Again, be so for real right now.
I refuse to acknowledge this point until the opposing ships acknowledge the 3 books (+ ACOFAS) of build up between Elain and Azriel.
• #5 - Elain doesn’t belong in the Night Court
This is the last point I’ll mention cause I actually feel bad for dogging the Gwynriels like this, but it had to be done. (Elucians get a pass bc at least their ship is based in evidence)
Elain doesn’t belong in the Night Court, okay, yeah Cassian said that the colors drown her out, I’ll give you that.
But Elain doesn’t know where she belongs anymore, just like Azriel has said about himself. She’s still figuring herself out and what she wants, so it’s okay she looks odd at times or feels at times out of place. Azriel keeps his shadows out 24/7 for the same reason. He doesn’t let anyone past the front he puts on unless he knows it’s safe to. They’re both figuring out how to live their best lives in their current lives.
I’ve heard Dusk Court theories and others but I won’t even repeat those (even tho they’re so good and you should definitely look into them). They just need to find their place in this world (and Cassian was right, Elain DOES NOT BELONG in the Hewn City).
Just like how Nesta didn’t believe she belonged in the Inner Circle, I believe there’s a place for Elain and Azriel where they can be themselves. They just need to find it I.E. their book.
-
Okay, that’s enough slaying of my enemies for one post. Again, this is just my opinion/theories and at the end of the day I’ll be happy with whatever Mrs. Maas gives us as long as she gives us something.
Act correctly or else I’ll be back.

i don't understand people who think steve and nancy are just completely incompatible and never should have dated in the first place (this is re: a post another anon referenced about "bro code doesn't exist when you and your ex are clearly not meant to be in a relationship")
it's such a weird idea that any outsider can claim "oh these two people should never have dated" when...they did. they chose to. it was a relationship that two people both wanted and pursued and spent almost a year in, and it might have ended but how fucking invalidating for a friend to be like "and it never should have happened in the first place, so let's pretend it didn't" it was a year of their lives
even though i don't agree with the interpretation that nancy was waiting for jonathan to make a move and only settled for steve, (i think she was just waiting for jonathan to re-enter her life at all, and didn't think dating steve would end their friendship), even if she did date steve to stave off her loneliness it was still a source of comfort and safety for her for months. steve's the first person she slept with and her first serious relationship (maybe her first relationship ever?)
and for steve she was his first love
but hey, they, like, obviously never should have been together in the first place (tho if they're so incompatible how are they even friends? or if it's so messy how would the hurt feelings not be relevant?) so like, let's just pretend they weren't and that they don't mean anything to each other and that they never did, because they never should have
so many people that hate stancy have an inability to actually view it critically, and just interpret it the way they want to, rather than what they’re actually shown.
even if you think stancy never should’ve been together, that’s such a weird thing to say to defend steve’s best friend dating his ex. like yeah, maybe he looks back on his relationship and thinks, “hmm, we shouldn’t have been together”. but that doesn’t erase the hurt!! that doesn’t take away the fact that they were in a very real relationship!!
i really liked the way you worded that! like, yeah, even though at the end of the relationship it had become tougher and tougher for nancy to ‘pretend to be normal’ for a good portion of a year, steve was there for her! he helped her through her grief, and was a person she could rely on and talk to. steve was the boy she chose to lose her virginity to, and nancy was, at one point, the most important person in steve’s life.
to just say they shouldn’t have been together anyway so who gives a fuck, is so stupid?
besides that, they broke up just over a year ago!! it’s not like it’s been years since they dated and their emotions and hurt over it are long gone. and they’re teenagers! they won’t be able to reflect back on their relationship with that degree of maturity and separation for years.
also. i know i talk mainly on the stobin side of things, but i don’t think nancy would be comfortable being in that kind of relationship either. steve would be her girlfriends best friend, she would have to spend day in, day out with her ex, that she didn’t speak to for about a year because of the rough breakup. nancy is the kind of person that avoids awkward situations like that. and considering the fact that nancy’s girlfriend would always chose steve over her. i don’t think nancy could deal with that.

Coming out to Kazuha as transgender
Tried to make this as inclusive as possible so that all trans people (both ftm/mtf and nonbinary) can see themselves in this. There a lot of ways to be trans tho so hnng
Oh and this could definitely just be viewed as all platonic. Kazuha and reader might be dating, or might not be. YOU decide 🫵
You seem nervous when you tell him
Little do you know, he’s known for some time already
“I had a hunch that may be the case. There was something distinctly unique in the feeling you give off, unlike that of a [agab].”
Honestly just goes with it, instantly starting to refer to you with the terms you prefer
This man is so used to thinking through his words as he speaks (making them pleasing to the ear) that he doesn’t struggle at all if you ask him to use different pronouns for you
Even neopronouns will be a walk in the park for him! Though he has to properly grasp how they work first, of course
Will ask you if you’re only comfortable with him knowing this, or if you want others to know too
Depending on your answer, he will act accordingly around people who don’t know
If you don’t want others to know, he’ll refer to you rather neutrally
Will go with either your agab pronouns, they/them, or might even try to avoid pronouns altogether depending on what you prefer
If anyone could refer to you with no pronouns ever and still have it sound natural, it'd be him
If you’re fine with others knowing, he will act like your gender is as normal as the sun being up during daytime
Will be a little hesitant if you ask him to explain it to someone, as he really won't be speaking from experience. But if you truly are too nervous to do it yourself, then he'll try
And despite his hesitance he'll be damn good at it, explaining it in a way that makes it sound so very natural and almost beautiful
Will definitely hear you out if you wanna discuss gender stuff
“Whilst I am unable to relate, I still understand that this is important to you. Please know that I am here to listen to anything you wish to tell me.”
He’ll ask questions if he feels he doesn’t understand something, but never in a way that invalidates your identity
If you tell him what causes you dysphoria he’ll definitely try to subtly keep you away from those situations
And if you tell him what causes you euphoria he’ll try and help you experience that every now and then
If you start altering your appearance to match how you feel inside, he’ll support you
He might even suggest things he thinks could help you feel more at home in your body
After a while, he’d definitely remind you of your progress
“I just have to say that seeing how far you’ve come, it truly brings me joy. You have grown so much with this, and the confidence you’ve gained from it makes itself apparent in all that you are. I’m proud of you.”
There’s nothing but respect from this man regarding your gender

venting about my day:)
today was my first sober day since my 11 day streak in november! and let me tell you it fucking sucked i mean i swear every hour felt like three and i just kept asking myself why i’m trying to do this. and my brain kept trying to sabotage, i kept coming up with reasons why not to and invalidating myself and telling myself “i don’t even have a problem, it’s all made up, other people with real addictions would laugh at me” etc etc basically i had to fight myself all day and it was so annoying and constant and i feel as though i mentally ran a marathon. emotionally today has felt like five days and i feel like i need to sleep forever to recharge but i work the next three days and it will be my first time working sober in a month! so basically i’m worried lmao bc if anything is going to make me fuck up it’s work stress and work people. so tomorrow better be an easy day bc istg i have not a lot left in me and im feeling very grumpy and angry rn i feel like i need to scream. maybe i should try dialing back the forced positivity tomorrow tho like maybe i really am trying TOO hard to have the right thoughts and answers and motivations. i’m gonna try ignoring those doubting questions in my mind tomorrow. like doesn’t matter all the reasons why we’re doing this, it’s what we’re doing so i need to get on board and stop asking myself questions. damn. i am so annoying i am driving myself crazy

tw stalking
I hope this isn’t a touchy subject for you but do you think Jinx is a stalker? A friend of mine said she couldn’t get into arcane because Jinx‘ stalking was off-putting to her. I didn’t say anything to that because my friend sadly has been a victim of a stalker and I wouldn’t want to invalidate her. But still calling Jinx is a stalker doesn’t seem right to me? She is a kidnapper, a killer, a thief and a terrorist yeah but a stalker?
I really value your opinion on Jinx as a character so I was wondering what you thought about this.
Have a nice day!
she's like a lil bit of a stalker, like I don't think she does it a lot because she just doesn't care about people that much except vi and silco and like a) she doesn't have to stalk silco, he's always there anyway b) she did stalk vi a lil on the bridge like she did do the creepy telescope thing. but like I don't think she's Joe from you level stalker she's too reactive to be patient like that. but i dont think stalking is too out of pocket to her, its like a minor atrocity compared to everything else she does. her breaking into caitlyns house to wait her out in the shower only to kidnap her was creepy bitch behaviour tho like she was crazy for that, how long was she even standing there

Watching german newsies. Am disturbed. Need sleep now.
Update
Jack „duzt“ (the not formal you) kloppman and i love it
So they have absolutely no singing skills which is weird considering its a musical
YK THE PART IN CARRIING THE BANNER WHERE THEYRE ALL SINGING ABOVE EACH OTHER??? HALF OF THOSE ARE ENGLISH???
Not abt the german sync but i love boots so much ydek i love him almost as much as albert
They also call themselves newsboys in the german version like BRO WHAT ARE YOU CHANGING THE NAME FOR IF YOURE NOT TRANSLATING IT ANYWAY
PLSSSS „hast du keine aguen im kopf“😭
They did make it a whole lot clearer what jack meant when he talked about oscar with his shoes on
And you can understand what they say in the backround soooo much better
Mush’s voice actually fits better than his real one
Snaps is so funny😭😭
Omg boots singing in german is smt I didn’t know i needet (because i dont. Its terrible)
Blink cant pronounce Harlem „helm“💀💀💀 you go boy! Don’t let anyone tell you not to where that helmet!
WE LOVE U DENTON UR AN ICON *fucking fangirls*
„Spot kanlen“
They made „i spent a month there one night“ into „a night there always feels like a whole month“ :(
Wheres the fun in that???
What the hell is a spot kanlen
I take the thing with races sync back. In fact i think its really really good. And so is blinks (especially blinks) and skitterys.
STOP SAYING KANLEN WHAT TH HELL
I already didn’t understand why they would make a song called seize the day when it could be carpe diem but i guess in English it makes sense cause you can say both versions. In german u cant. No one ever said „nutz den tag“ if anything they say „nutze“ but like just say carpe diem christ. Maybe u can actually find some fitting rhymes then that aren’t just the same thing twice.
THE NEWSIES BACK UP A GAY KID IN THE GERMAN VERSION!!! I REPEAT!!! THEY CANONICALLY BACK UP A KID THAT GOT CALLED A schwuchtel (which is the german equivalent to f4got) THIS IS NOT A DRILL GUYS
„das hinkebein? Ich hohl ihn“ why was that actually kinda cute????
„IcH wIlL NiChT dAS JeManD MicH tRäGt“
Istg crutchie is such a slow talker in german i cant even
RACHE FÜR CRUTCHIE
AINT NO WAY THEY QUOTED STARWARS😭😭😭
„Brooklyn hält euch die Stange“
Thats what he said—
(Im so invalid for this😭)
Ok just lemme get this straight cuz im not sure im correct. The newsies on the pic are the characters that actually got named right??
I have so many feelings about german kony and only very few of them are good
But snipeshooter still kind sounds like himself in it so i guess that good
WHY R THERE NO GERMAN SUBTITLES THO????
Ok but „harlem bis nach sonst wo“ was actually handled pretty well
I only just realized mush swalloing a laugh when davey doesn’t wanna spit shake
Why do they juat completely change some things they say?? Like they could have easily translated it??
Why is the refuge and orphanage in german
IS LES SMOKING???
Edit: nvm its just a lollipop
Istg Esther is so done
GEWERKSCHAFT
(I didn’t even know that was a word)
Still can’t believe blush is cannon
Ok but in santa fee jack talks to a crowd, to himself and to someone else entirely all at the same time
The way jack say snoddy is simply just wrong
Skittery is weird too
„Spot conlen macht uns n bisschen nervös“ nawwwwww fucking cute ass
Omg the men in the backround talking????? Awesome!! Can hear every word!! „Die werden sich noch umsehn“ yass
Why tf they calling him captain instead of kelly
„ICh FrEsS n BeSeN“
Ast-rein
Boots is so poursouled
Edit: i take it back
Reminder to anyone hc‘ing mouth as daveys nickname that in german his nickname would be SpRacHrOhR
WHY DO THEY TAKE DIFFERENT ENGLISH WORDS??? Either u translate it or you leave it. But if you’re changing it but not translating wheres the point??
WAS WILLST DU DAMIT SAGEN? HAT SPOT ALSO RECHT??
Nothing. And i mean nothing. Makes sense in seize the day. And it doesn’t rhyme.
WiR GEBEN IHNEN SAURES
Fucking blink
Edit: rn -mush
Why is crutchie so dumb?
I just realized some of the scabs were already convinced before the fight w the Delancys
What is the woody gate??
Boots is a fucking icon
Spot just livked his palm instead if soitting in it??
NO O E FUCKING TALKS LIKE THAT
What denton says doesn’t make any fucking sense istg
Some of the rhymes in kony are actually okay
THEY REMOVED SPOTS VIBRATO
cant fucking understand a word snipeshooter says
„gut so“ KLOPPMAN LOML
Why did snider donate to the strike??
Herrliche aussicht STFU ALREADY
Who casted Sarah‘s sync???
Motherfucking Pulitzer is licking the paper
Motherfuxker is one of them the guy frim umsere kleine farm
„Brooocklin“
Wtf they didn’t even try to make emphasis‘s similar
They removed meddas accent:(

holy shit this is gonna sound so stupid, maybe i actually shouldn’t say that tho as my therapist would say it would “invalidate my feelings” i don’t want to invalidate them but if they weren’t so intolerable maybe i wouldn’t have such a hard time validating them. Really i just don’t think they’re that interesting, i don’t think i’m interesting. this wouldn’t be a problem if i actually knew how to behave normally around other people. but no i have to get anxious over the fact that i can’t ever think of anything to say to make people stay, or to make people like me which that of it self is so annoying like “oh boohoo people don’t like me and i’m gonna make it a problem for myself but not enough to change just enough to make my own life fucking miserable” and the truth is i’m not sure if i’m just too lazy to change or if it’s because i have such a hard time focusing on one thing for long enough to make any change in the first place. yet again starting a “new project” i won’t finish in the end. i mean it’s not like i died so i do have time to finish the project i’m just not sure when that’s gonna be. i love lists i think they are great maybe i should make one of every thing i want to change and see what the recurring pattern is in the bullet points, maybe i’ll actually see something i’ve never noticed and that will give me some fucking motivation to change. dissociation also doesn’t help though i‘m not sure if that’s what’s making me lose so much of my memory or if i just regressed and because stupid (this is such a big fear of mine). i picked up smoking i think, it’s just been a recent happening not rly wish to keep it going it’s an expensive habit in the long and short run. anyway going back to the fact that if i met myself i would hate me 😃 i admire so many of my friends and i am so judgemental i wish i could just love unconditionally and freely maybe it’s my dads fault i’m like this but i don’t even talk to him anymore so maybe i should start finding ways to fix it instead of just remembering all the shit he did to me. i think if i were to say this in therapy m would be like “ you need to start being kind to yourself and in time you will be to others as well” i am so fucking impatient tho will i ever be able to get through the process ?? i mean time passes anyway so might as well but it’s hard and exhausting and i am already tired.
how do i start changing if i am already tired, maybe i should ask that in therapy.
#writing this helped a bit i think#i’m not sure posting this will help but maybe someone will find it comforting#if anyone sees it at all#this is a very angsty post omg#well this is tumblr#i think it’s okay then

youtube
She’s a little annoying, but this YouTuber is a fan of his and does a pretty good job of analyzing the sources of these claims and weighs them out without being too in gaimans favor, which I appreciate. I’m always one to listen to alleged victims because, not only is it like. Yknow, tantamount all things aside that we try to listen to someone who claims they’ve been abused or assaulted, but logically because it’s very difficult for someone with little to no fame or money to go against someone with a lot of fame and money publicly, for a multitude of reasons. That alone gives their plight credibility, and as someone who can relate, I’m always inclined to hear them out.
There’s some odd things about the podcast that reports on this. I’ve yet to listen to it, but it sounds sloppy as hell. Regardless, there’s a ton of very damning things about gaiman that are confirmed by himself, as well as friends and family, that even without affirming the allegations, are just. Eugh. Stereotypical older nerdy rich white guy tho honestly. Dating younger women, soliciting sex randomly, he’s into bdsm which isn’t a crime at all but unfortunately older men in the community have a track record of not really seeking consent. Nothing that’s necessarily illegal, and in all honesty, about on par with his contemporaries. You could say ‘this is morally repugnant’ and I might shrug and agree but it’s very much what you’d expect from a celebrity nowadays imo.
Overall it sounds as if he’s into sadism, pushes it onto younger women who aren’t, and made one of them sign an NDA and ‘offered’ to pay her rent. She assumed the signing the NDA is what would insure her rent be paid. Then when it all comes out that she’s accusing him of rape, he says ‘I’m going to kill myself’ instead of addressing anything. But the podcast that covered it did a bad job, which doesn’t invalidate this story at all. I think that’s fucked up. I’ll divulge more as I learn. I’m going to listen to the podcast but apparently the journalist is Boris johnson’s sister which is already. Eyebrow raising
Neil gaiman allegations?! Dude I literally am on a roll with predicting this shit. I mean it’s awful but like every time I focus my hatred on a new celebrity some shit comes up, but I guess that’s actually just the nature of being a celebrity often coinciding with being rich and being rich often coinciding with having to do pretty shitty things to get to that point. I’m not so reductive that I actually believe ‘you are a bad person because you are X’ but rather, the chances of you being a bit morally repugnant increase the likelihood of you getting into this position of power MOREOVER once in a position of power, regardless of your ethics beforehand, you are presented new temptations. Yknow what I mean? Doesn’t matter fuck him and Jimmy beast

invalidating their s/o’s hard work
w/ oikawa and suna!
part 3!
series masterlist here!
(a/n: the highly requested part 3 is here !!! i hope this part does the others justice hehe😚this one only has 2 characters bc i lost motivation halfway through tho😢anyways—
all scenarios are written in the timeskip !! as always, thank you for your support everyone!💞💞💞)
oikawa
you knew your boyfriend was a hard worker, and you loved to encourage him
lately he had been working more hours than ever before and you wanted to show him that you appreciated him
so on your day off, you decided to surprise him
you made a ton of food that he liked and prepared the space for a night together
you set up blankets and snacks and movies; everything that you could think of
after spending most of the day gathering and setting things up, you sighed, awaiting his arrival
you hear the door open and perk up; he’s finally home! you look around to make sure everything is in place for the night and wait for him to enter the room.
“welcome home, tooru!” you grin, and he looks around. his brows furrow, and your smile dims slightly at his reaction.
“what is all this?” he asks, and you swallow.
“i thought you could use a night to relax. with me,” you offer, gesturing to the food and shrugging. he sighs, and you pause. “you don’t like it?”
he scrubs a hand over his face. “i don’t really have time for this. i have to get up early tomorrow, and i can’t have any distractions, okay?” he explains. distraction? your heart sinks. of course he doesn’t have time tonight. you should’ve expected it.
“oh,” you mutter, looking away. “well, you can just go to bed without me.”
he nods and heads off without another word. you want to follow him to bed, taking any time with him you can get, but you still have to clean everything up, so you stay.
it’s a couple hours later when tooru wakes up, throat dry and scratchy. he gets up to grab a glass of water but pauses at seeing the light seeping from under the door. you’re still up?
he opens the door cautiously, careful not to make any sound as to alert you of his presence, and peeks out the door.
you’re wiping down the counter, chin resting in your free hand, and you stare down at the marble sadly. you look tired and lonely, and tooru’s chest begins to ache upon seeing you like this.
you put the rag down and rest your head in your hands, taking a breath. your stomach growls and you grimace, having forgotten dinner, but you resume cleaning anyway.
he opens the door and steps forward, making his presence known, and you straighten up, startled.
before he can say anything, you grab a glass from the cupboard and fill it with water before handing it to him. he takes it from you, looking at you guiltily.
he feels terrible, now that he can step back and acknowledge everything that you did for him today. or, everything that you tried to do for him today. he hasn’t been spending a lot of time with you lately, and he knows you were just trying to make it better.
“hey, um—” he starts, but you cut him off.
“you should go back to bed! you have an early day tomorrow, right?” you ask, turned away. he winces upon remembering how he shut you down earlier.
“yeah, but...” he trails off, looking around. he can see all of the food you made sitting in tupperware containers, untouched. “you made all this food, and—”
“it’s okay, tooru. just go back to bed,” you mumble, scrubbing the sides of the pot you’re holding and sighing.
more than anything, you’re embarrassed. embarrassed at having put in a day’s work just to be shut down by someone who didn’t care for it in the first place. now, all you want is for him to just leave.
“hey,” he coaxes gently. “you haven’t had dinner, right? why don’t we sit down and eat?”
“tooru, i don’t need you to humiliate me even more than you already have, okay?” you blurt, face hot.
he stares at you, mouth opening and closing as he searches for something to say. it never comes, so he just nods, and retreats toward the door.
but when he takes another look over his shoulder, he sees you leaned over the counter, face in your hands, and he crumbles.
he pads over to you and wraps his arms around your waist, pulling you in firmly. you make a noise of protest, but he shakes his head.
“i’m sorry. i should’ve appreciated everything you did for me today,” he murmurs softly, face buried in the crook of your neck, and you shrug.
“‘s fine. i know you have things to do,” you respond, and he turns you around to look at him.
“hey,” he tilts your chin up. “that’s not an excuse. i should’ve set aside time for you, too.”
you smile a little at that, and he pats your head affectionately.
“let’s take the day off tomorrow. we can do everything you planned for, ‘kay?” he suggests, hopeful, and your eyes light up.
you wrap your arms around him and squeeze tightly. he coughs, laughing and burying his nose in your hair.
“thank you, tooru.”
suna
when it came to your housing situation, suna didn’t care about the aesthetics of it nearly as much as you did
even so, he liked to listen to you talk about the things you wanted to do with the place
so you decided you’d surprise him while he was at practice by redecorating everything and making the house look nice !!
you went out and found a couple pieces to put up on the wall as well as some little lights and things
you spent the entire day setting everything up and stood back, looking at it proudly
all you had to do was wait for him :)
you move the new lamp to the right just a bit, and look at it. perfect.
you stand back, inspecting each element of the living room to make sure it looks just right. you grin, excitement making your heart pound.
finally, you hear the lock clicking open, and run to the front door. rintarou stares at you blankly, and you beam at him, coming around behind him to cover his eyes.
“y/n, i don’t want—”
“i have something to show you!” you singsong proudly, leading him to the living room. he grunts, and you uncover his eyes.
“tada!! what do you think?” you wait eagerly, reading his face as his eyes scan over the room. he scoffs, and you frown. “what?”
“it looks like you chewed up a salad and spit it out all over our room,” he mumbles, gesturing to the house plants you bought just to decorate. you gulp before laughing nervously.
“i don’t know, i kind of like it!” you offer, and he cringes.
“well, it’s your idea. doesn’t matter what i think about it,” he shrugs, and his obvious disapproval stings.
“of course it does! i wanna know what you think,” you murmur, and he shrugs yet again, tiredly shuffling into the bedroom wordlessly.
disappointed, you finally let your shoulders fall sadly. you hadn’t expected him to be over the moon about it, but you still wanted him to like it.
you feel stupid; it’s his room too, and his approval is just as important as yours.
you go to pick up one of your hanging plants, taking it off its hook and holding it up. it’s got the greenest leaves you’ve ever seen, and you think it might be your favorite one.
you bring it up to your face and sigh. “you’re a beautiful plant. i hope your life is good to you,” you whisper, kissing its leaves. you once saw on tv that talking to your plants makes them grow nice and strong, and while rintarou always made fun of you for it, you started doing it anyways.
one by one, you take the plants down, whispering affirmations to them along the way.
—
suna’s stomach grumbles loudly, and he groans. he didn’t get the chance to stop for dinner on the way home, and now he’s paying for it.
he’s about to open the door to the living room when he hears something. it sounds like mumbling, though he can’t make out what you’re saying.
slowly, he pushes the door open just a crack and puts his ear against it.
“you’re the last one, little guy,” you say quietly, and he opens the door just a tad bit more, peeking through it. his eyes widen; all of your plants are sitting on the counter, removed from their initial places. you’ve taken down the lights, too, and put the lamps in a box. you laugh, but suna can tell it’s not real.
“rintarou never really liked plants, i guess. should’ve thought about it before i messed his living room up,” you shrug sadly, and his heart sinks.
he didn’t mean to hurt your feelings; the plants were really a nice touch! he was just passive about these things, and he didn’t think you’d take his commentary to heart.
“i hope you get lots of water and plenty of sun when i take you back. please grow strong,” you whisper, and suna pauses. take you... back? you’re gonna return them?
he opens the door, and you turn around sharply, alert.
“talking to the plants again?” he teases, hoping to lighten up the mood, but you just stare back down at the pot your holding. his chest hurts at the sight, and he pads over to you, taking the plant from your hands.
“let’s just put these back up, okay?” he suggests, but you shake your head.
“‘m just gonna return them,” you answer quietly. “i don’t wanna keep them up if you don’t like them.”
“but—” he protests, but you cut him off quickly.
“it’s fine, rin. it’s not a big deal.”
you turn away, organizing the rest of the plants, and rintarou sighs helplessly.
but then, an idea pops into his head, and he blinks once before sighing again, defeated. fuck it, he thinks.
“i’m sorry for calling you chewed up salad,” he mumbles, embarrassed. you freeze, turning around slowly.
“..what?”
“i think you’re a, er, very beautiful plant. you have nice... leaves?” he cringes, holding the plant to his face, and you chortle, laughing loudly. suna softens at the sound, relieved at finally hearing a real laugh from you. he walks toward you, holding the plant next to his ear. “i think it wants to stay,” he whispers, and you sigh.
“i don’t want to decorate our house with things you don’t like, rintarou.”
“baby,” he says gently. “i didn’t mean it like that, okay? i think our house will look perfect however you decide to decorate it,” he shrugs, and you exhale, letting him hold you.
“okay, okay.”
“i think so too!” suna imitates whinily, shaking the little plant at you, and you giggle happily.

No one is saying Harry has to come out to as queer. He’s gonna be queer whether he comes out, tweets about it, sits down with Oprah and does a tell all or stay in the closet forever. But, that doesn’t mean that he gets a platform to speak out and give opinions about queer issues that directly impact queer people when his perspective is that of a cis/het man. It’s like, say I non binary person, before I came out and was therefore seen as a cis woman started talking about how gender is pointless and overrated. Obviously that invalidates other trans people and even tho I’m trans, if at the time I said those things I wasn’t out, they would hurt people and cause offence.
It just means that people, of all marginalized communities need to be mindful of the communities we claim and how we interact with them before speaking about important issues. That’s all. No one is forcing H to come out, it’s not about that, it’s just that, while he’s not out, making statements about what he thinks is good gay sex on film, while it may have been well intentional, offended a lot of people.
Because how would you like it if your straight friend started saying that the gay sex they watch is too rough for their liking. I’d bet you’d be offended. Why? Because straight people don’t get to decide what good queer representation looks like because it’s not their community that’s being represented.
So while I know that queer people don’t need to come out, and that Harry doesn’t owe us anything, in this society it is the standard that queer people have to come out. Especially public figures. If you don’t tweet it, you’re straight. And I know that fucked up. It’s really really fucked up, but that doesn’t change reality. And that reality is that Harry Styles will be perceived as cis/het by the general public until he tells us blatantly otherwise.
And knowing that, means knowing that what he says will be taken as the opinion of a straight man, which I know, sucks, but it’s true. And when those opinions are on a queer specific subject, Harry’s words will be seen as him talking about something he has no right to talk about.
And again, he doesn’t need to come out in order to voice his opinions, he can say whatever about whatever, but, that doesn’t mean the GP is gonna see it as him, a queer man speaking about something that impacts him personally. They won’t because that’s not his public persona or narrative right now. So when the GP and his queer fans get frustrated with him it comes from a place of constantly living in a world where their identities are prosecuted. It comes from a place of anger, that this straight man gets to talk over them, gets to decide what good representation is for their community. They have a right to be angry because if all they’ve seen is the recent tabloids of H and O holding hands, walking down a street every other day, or listening to WS, Carolina, Cherry, Cinema, and all the media just pushing his heterosexuality, it’s easy to understand why they’d think he’s straight. You can’t blame them for believing what Jeff has been forcing down their throats for the past 6 years.
So yes, fans are angry and disappointed, but the Larries and real fans aren’t asking him to come out, we know the truth. We know about the closeting and how much abuse he’s suffered in the industry and how hard he’s fought to be himself. We know all this, but they don’t, and right now they see another white, cis/het popstar profiting off of a marginalized community.
That’s all I have to say.

part two y’all <33
spending like a bajillion hours in the bathroom getting ready and showering and brushing my teeth and goofing off in the mirror. honestly thought i’d feel way more feminine and dysphoric if i did this but taking care of myself and having my own space to just exist for a while without having to mask or pretend to be cishet
staying up late at night and talking to my friend or being on pinterest or tumblr
silent screaming !! for no reason or for every reason, it just feels good and cathartic and is a boy activity for me personally
being my gay little self and getting sososo hyped about a cute boy or girl or person (when i see a cute boy i feel most masc tho bc i’m like “omg mlm im a real boy hes so cute”)
just decorating my room however the fuck i want and making my space littered with traces of me and what i like and what i am
plastering references to things i love literally wherever the fuck i can. its just really fun and finding places to sneak stuff you like everywhere just makes me feel like a silly happy dude
working on myself. i ask for help whenever i need it, and i’ve come a long way from before, but when it comes to stuff that doesn’t make me feel as if i would be better off sharing with someone, i find it much easier, much more effective and much less stressful to work things through on my own and sort my thoughts out and research. being autistic and possibly having alexithymia as well, i’ve always struggled with communication and whilst venting helps once in a blue moon, most times it just makes me feel stupid because I can’t communicate what i feel properly because even i don’t know when it comes down to it. so being able to solve it or figure it out in my own time on my own makes me feel much more capable and secure in myself, and i feel more manly ! asking for help when i need it also makes me feel manly coincidentally sooo ye <333
being hyperfeminine just because i can and on my own terms. like a lot of masc trans boys//people, my whole childhood and even life now is spent being told “you’re too masculine, are you a boy ?” “that’s not ladylike at all” and stuff like that. personally, i love feminine stuff !! i love the colour pink and frills and sparkles and dresses. but i simply find myself unable to enjoy it because im closeted and because of my dysphoria. on very low dysphoria days though, sometimes i love to dress up all pretty and feminine simply because i’m a boy and i’m only going to be feminine if i want to and being feminine does not invalidate my gender in any way
journalling and otherwise just being my introspective self
reading a lot !! i feel like the boy chronically living in the university library with a thousand books surrounding him that he already read and i love it
playing rpgs like genshin and also old timey feeling pixel games like celeste and old mario bros games and undertale and pac man, as well as games like hollow knight and cult of the lamb
arcades !!
taking pictures of anything and everything i find cool when out on a walk or at a shop or out with friends or even just doing mundane shit outside like food shopping
making picrew characters of myself now and what i hope to look like when i transition
reading comics and webtoons
playing my guitar and writing my songs and just messing around with no pressure on my instrument
cooking and baking !! it’s already my favourite thing ever to do i love it sososososoo fucking much and i always have and after i came out to myself it had the added joy of making me feel like those boys in uni who cook for the homies and cooks for himself and tries out new recipies when he’s not studying - it’s just me and it makes me feel myself and therefore it is masculine to me and that makes me feel good <3
calling people darling, sweetie, honey
treating myself like the prince i am !! like fuck yeah gimme the fluffy blanket i’m a prince i deserve it. just romanticising myself as all boys should be able to do <33
fun socks !! i feel so masculine if i have on a pair of fun socks and i have no idea why i just do
dogsdogsdogsdogsdogsdogs all sizes shapes breeds just dogs in general
cats too
and snakes
ykw all animals apart from insects but they aren’t animals anyway so
YEAHHH I’M THE ANIMAL KINGGG THE KING OF THE JUNGLEEEEEE
trying to look at my period under the light of “i’m bleeding and in pain and i’m still truckin, a lot of cis guys can’t even do that so i’m manly as fuck !! and one day this will stop and i’ll feel right and not dysphoric about the arrival of aunt flo, but for now i’m still manly even with my period !! even more so !! you’re a dude !!!”
using backpacks and only backpacks
flexing my hands and just looking at the way they work and the muscles contract (my hands aren’t stereotypically masc in the slightest but it just makes me feel like a man when i study things very closely and it makes me happy in a quiet way so <3)
working on raising my spice tolerance as much as i can
making promises to myself and trying to keep them, for example since i was little i vowed never in my life to ever drink coffee consistently, only once here and there when out with my coffee drinking friends or when i simply felt like it, but never as a routinely thing and so far i’ve kept that promise !
egg fried rice
lobster
fish
the sea !! i’ve always loved the sea it’s my fuckin element dude i grew up with the sea and it makes me feel sososo manly i feel like percy jackson after i’m in the sea. i dive into the sea and swim sososo far away from shore and i feel so calm and just manly
learning new things !
dark chocolate. just yes
watching voice transformation videos !! i love watching those update compilations where it’s like “hi, i’m (insert name) and this is my voice pre-t <3” to “hi, i’m (insert name) and this is my voice six months on t <3” AND ITS SO COOL because pre-t they sound like me and it gives me hope it gives me so much hope that one day i’ll wake up and i won’t have to suddenly stop myself because i’ve realised that i got too happy and my voice raised ten thousand octaves
nimona. its the best. go fucking watch nimona right now you twink.
walking around barefoot on warm stone or hot sand and not being fazed and enjoying the sensation
acting like a celebrity in an interview in my bathroom and having my own talk show
kirishima eijiro from my hero academia. he is trans and so manly so fucking manly and so happy but human and he is so just MM i love him prove me fucking wrong (you can’t there’s no way in hell that mf ain’t trans)
playing rounders. there’s just something about holding a bat and having perfect poise and swinging and hitting the ball perfectly so perfectly it soars over a literal field and seeing all the fielders have to fucking sprint to even have a chance of getting you out and being able to score a rounder so flawlessly. and also the times when everything goes wrong and the bat barely touches the ball and someone catches it and you’re out but you still goddamn tried. and being the head fielder, yelling out directions and having them be trusted without question and having the team come together perfectly because you listen to them and they listen to you and fucking smashing the other team to bits because you worked together that well. it’s just beautiful alr
oranges and the colour orange
claiming both sides of my ethnicity !! being proud of where i come from and being both greek and bengali !!
flowers <333
tea too !!
feeling my adam’s apple (even tho it’s small ofc bc afab)
pt1 of oddly specific things that give me gender affirmation/euphoria (that may not be that odd but i didn’t expect them so shut up <3 /lh):
wallets !!!! a good stereotypically masculine wallet that’s small and leather and still has lots and lots of usability and looks like something a dad would use makes me feel so masculine !! love it
any type of trouser or bottoms with more than two pockets
windbreaker jackets - they make me go “FUCK YEEAAHH im such a boy a man a male tm yessir” and idk why they just do tho, even the fem ones to an extent
plantssss i love plants and they make me feel like a little gardner boy just yessss
energy drinks for some reason ???? they make the internal man dialogue of “IM A MANNN” go haywire so much
hairbands on my wrist and an excess of those wooden beaded bracelets or even stone beaded jewellery
cross earrings but just bc they look cool (i’m an atheist so yuh, i still love people who have religion too, y’all are awesome <3)
doing the thing with your hair where you take hair from one side and flip it on the other with one hand and its kind of like running your hand through your hair but with long hair…. esp of my other hand is on my hip and i scrunch my face ?!?!?!??!? so boyish i feel so good
dancing like an absolute idiot. i dont know why but every time i just do a little jig for myself by myself my gender is just like “yessssss you’re a boy frfr slay king”
watches !! big chunky analogue watches
following on from the last point, clocks too
mushroomsssss they make the more nonbinary side of me jump for joy cause like “yes ofc im a fucking forest goblin dude i love mushrooms im just a goblin guy leave me alone and let me love the shrooms”
sketching in public. it just doessss
camoflague clothing !! i mean this was probably obvious but when i came out to myself and i wore camo cargo pants (with loads of pockets mind you) i just freaked out in joy i felt so manly that day it was glorious
singing !! singing my favourite songs as low as i can go with it still sounding good
just being as stubborn as possible but in a non problematic (for the most part) way. like if you give me the option to make things easier and more convenient or not i’ll choose the harder option. idk it just makes me feel manly (is this toxic masculinity ?? i dont know but i try to remind myself that this only applies to non mental stuff so i don’t end up self-harming againnnn)
being unnecessarily overdressed
not brushing my hair till its perfectly untangled and just letting it be a bit wild - this came with me figuring out that my hair type is waywayway wavier/curlier than i thought my whole life and learning to take care of it the best i can whilst i have like zero products for waves/curls on hand and as a bonus i felt more masc !!
looking at the stretch marks underneath my boobs in the mirror. i have a large-ish chest i think (DD cup), plus i’m a lil chubby, so i have loads of stretch marks around my chest, and the ones underneath look like top surgery scars, so if i’m having a particularly rough day with my chest dysphoria i’ll look at em and feel a bit better
using my stim toys and accommodations with friends and by myself for my autism and adhd - being capable of taking care of myself finally makes me feel really confident and as a result quite masc as well
stimming by flipping my beaded bracelets between my fingers - this is specific to greek and possibly other cultures similar to greece but it’s typical for a lot of greek men to flip long-ish beaded loops (?? they’re not jewellery and specifically made for this but idk what they’re called so) between their fingers in a similar fashion, and it’s a thing that my dad does a lot when bored. whether neurodivergent or neurotypical it’s a very common thing for men and so doing it makes me not only feel good stimming but also feel manly as fuck ! it feels even better now that my mum saw me doing it once and said “what are you a man ??” and being closeted i had to say “idc im just flipping a bracelet why does it have to be gendered” BUT INSIDE I WAS SO HAPPY
playing card games - when i was younger and even now my dad and grandpa would let me sit in on their card games late at night when we visited them in greece and now when i play card games i always feel so calm and comforted and quietly masculine
drinkingggg now hear me out yes im a minor but i’m also half greek so as a result whenever my parents drink im allowed a bit too (under supervision ofc). anyway that out the way, i have a pretty fucking high alcohol tolerance and considering the fact that it comes from my dad (being asian, my mum’s tolerance is dogshit) plus the stereotypical “men can drink more” stuff i feel SO MANLYYYY when i can quite literally drink more than my dad and feel okay whilst he’s starting to be tipsy (just to clarify though, the stereotype is bullshit and should NOT be perpetuated as much as it is, at least with intent. you guys with low alcohol tolerances are just as manly !! maybe you’re even more manly than those with high tolerance !! and women with high tolerances, you’re still very fem and very cool and valid as a woman and those who aren’t binary or aligning you are valid as your gender or as no gender no matter what tolerance you have <33)
caring about myself more. and i don’t mean in a “i’m gonna have a nice fucking bath and be happy about it” way i mean in a “i’m going to feed myself well, drink lots of water, get good exercise and be respectful to myself at the very least” way. and also in the bath way. baths are nice
collecting shit !! idk dude but having a collection of dumb shit just makes me feel so masc and good cause i swear to the stars nearly every dude i’ve met and stepped into the house of has a collection of SOMETHING whether it’s games, books, rocks, crystals, cookbooks and recipies or art supplies or whatever makes them happy. like legit fucking anything and i like collecting stuff too so its a bonus !!
just being nice. just being a nice dude makes me feel so manly
being silly and myself and doing dumb shit and being unapologetic about it (im still working on being able to do this since i struggle a lot but when i can it feels so good !!)
being stupidly loyal to something equally stupid /pos. like yes i have had this stuffed animal since the dawn of time no i will never get rid of her. she’s a genderfuck lesbian rainbow tiger from buildabear workshop who goes by the name of Roxy i will never get rid of her >:(. and so what my ring is so rusty it makes my skin green every three days ?? i clean it and take it off when it gets out of control back off bitch its mine. why are you so concerned about my shoes ????? fuck you i like them how they are (falling apart and dishevelled, the sole is halfway off already and it hasn’t been even remotely okay since three years ago) and they still fit and work so i’ll wear them until i literally cannot anymore. its so fun and it’s such a “just some guy” activity AND it makes my autism goblin feel safe and good too so its great would reccommend
just talking about stuff i like and that makes me feel good but not to anybody in particular. maybe in my notes, maybe on tumblr (like right now !! i’m doing this one right now !!) maybe on my personal dm to myself. it just makes me feel like a boy i love it PLUS i dont actually have to stress about humans on the other end of it so i feel way more confident and comfortable and as a result even MORE manly !!
ice cream on cones. i will not elaborate
travelling and exploring !! like legit anywhere. as long as i’m moving from one place to another and exploring the world i feel so happy and right and also masculine it’s great i love travelling so much. on holidays i enjoy the act of travelling even more than the holiday itself tbh
(to clarify i identify as male but a bit fucked in the gender - if you want a label i still identify as nonbinary but male aligningg <3)

I saw this take on twitter about Hana & Kacchan having “reverse parallels” and since they both have apologised to Tenko/Deku (but one was more or less sincere and the other was absolutely sincere) and they said that, while Hana moved away from Tenko, Kacchan ran to catch Deku. There was also more to the thread abt Kacchan & Hana’s differences. They were sorta trying to argue that this is a clue that Hori intends for Bkdk to be sibling-like/brotherly. As a bkdk shipped, I’ve accepted that it makes sense.. cause it’s an established fact that Tenko & Deku parallel each other. Tenko having his own “Kacchan” makes sense. Tho yes I am a little sad since I’ve held a little bit of hope for romantic bkdk becoming canon. I just wanted to ask your opinion if Hana was really meant to foil Kacchan or was it just a reach?
okay so I have a couple responses to this.
1. while it's true that Horikoshi has woven a lot of deliberate parallels between Deku and Tenko's characters, that doesn't mean every single thing about their lives and every single person they interact with is a part of those parallels. which is to say that no, I don't really think Hana and Kacchan are meant to mirror each other in any kind of significant way. Hana's apology to Tenko was under completely different circumstances than Kacchan's apology to Deku; I really don't see any connection between the two situations. you might as well be trying to compare Hana to Endeavor, or Deku, or Hawks, or Aizawa, or any other character who's apologized to anyone over the course of the story.
2. please pardon the forthcoming rant, anon -- and I hope you know that none of this is aimed at you in particular -- but for me personally, this whole obsession with ships becoming canon is one of the most exasperating types of discourse there is. like, don't get me wrong, I totally understand people wanting to see their favorite ships validated by the author, and not to mention there's also the issue of having more LGBTQ+ representation. but speaking as someone whose own orientation (aromantic) has almost no representation in fiction whatsoever, it gets frustrating to see so many people dismiss non-romantic relationships as being an inferior type of ship, to the extent that calling a relationship "sibling-like" is now a commonly-used attack in ship wars. so many people view romance as this completely transformative element, to the point where two characters can literally tick every other box on the intimate personal relationship checklist, and none of it will matter to some people unless they actually confess their love and kiss.
and again, I'm not saying I don't understand it, especially since queerbating is a thing. it's one thing if a writer is genuinely just trying to portray a close friendship, especially in series where romance isn't really a focus. but it's another thing entirely if a writer is deliberately hinting at a romance in a blatant bid to attract a larger queer audience, while all the while having no intention whatsoever of having those hints lead anywhere. the issue, I guess, is that it's not always easy to tell which scenarios are the former, and which are the latter. and of course, you also have people who think that the former is a type of cop-out as well, because the thing is that romance is always viewed as the default. so for a lot of people, allosexual and alloromantic relationships are the only ones that get considered as far as representation goes.
but you know what, I'm just gonna say it; even knowing where people are coming from, it's still discouraging to know that so many people are so dismissive of aro and ace relationships that the thought of a favorite ship not becoming romantic in canon is considered a profound disappointment. and it's even more discouraging that the thought of a rival ship becoming canon is considered such an existential threat to some that they will literally use "oh, they're just like siblings" as an argument against the ship, rather than a point in favor of. because siblings are a downgrade. friendship is a downgrade. any kind of close relationship that isn't inherently romantic or sexual in nature is less important, and that's just how it is.
so yeah, that's kind of a pet peeve, ngl. especially since the truth is I actually do think Bakugou and Deku's relationship is very akin to siblings. and so I do sometimes get weary of not being able to just outright say that without having to first pepper the statement with all kinds of disclaimers so that people don't think I'm invalidating the ship. I feel like I have to walk on eggshells if I ever want to talk about their relationship in terms that I can personally relate to.
but I mean, here's how I look at it. they've known each other since they were small children. they call each other exclusively (or almost exclusively) by childhood nicknames. they have an openness and an unspoken, almost taken-for-granted trust in each other to the point where they'll share closely guarded secrets ("I got my quirk from someone else") and personal vulnerabilities ("why was I the one who ended All Might?") with barely a second's hesitation which they would never share with anyone else. they have a comfortable little bickering type of rapport ("I'm getting stronger"; "well I'll just have to get even stronger then"; "you'll never surpass me"; "we'll see about that") which they can fall into with ease and which looks weird af to outsiders, but is "normal" to them and something they're both grateful to have.
they're so intimately familiar with each other's personality and behaviors that they can predict them with perfect accuracy. they're so in tune with each other that they can whip up elaborate coordinated attacks right on the spot in perfect sync. their admiration for each other is so strong that they each think of the other as being the epitome of winning and saving, respectively. their mental images of each other are so vivid that they subconsciously mimic each other's speech patterns whenever they start falling into a particularly strong Win or Save mindset themselves. they take no small amount of pride in showing off for each other. they go apeshit any time the other is in danger or hurt. and each of them would literally die for the other if it ever came to that.
all of that is already canon. on just about every metric imaginable except for "now kiss", the two of them already have a canon intimacy that rivals just about every other great relationship out there. and so to say that none of it actually counts unless there's an actual love confession involved frankly just boggles me. again, maybe it's because I have no personal vested interest in romance myself, though. I'm literally just not wired that way, and so I'm really not the best person to vent to when it comes to these kinds of concerns.
but look, no matter what happens from here on out, these two care about each other on a very deep and personal level. they're going to continue to be a part of each other's lives no matter what. and each of them, no matter what, will continue to occupy a space in each other's lives that no other person can fill, regardless of how we or Horikoshi or anyone else choose to label and define that space. and so in my book, that's already a win.
anyways, apologies again for the impromptu rant. again, this wasn't particularly directed at you in any way; if anything it's mostly just a generic response to the constant shipping discourse in this and every other fandom, and a more detailed explanation for why I personally don't like to get involved in it. this is just one of the myriad reasons why I try my best to stay very far away from BnHA twitter lol.

alright so I know literally no one cares about this but it’s my social media I’m doing what I want /lh
I’ve been seeing a lot of slander about justin russo on the internet lately and I’m currently hyperfixated on wizards of waverly place so here’s why justin is an awesome character/doesn’t deserve the hate he gets
He’s kind and treats those he loves well. Justin is canonically really good at comforting people. Although he argues with Alex a lot, at the end of the day, he’s also her older brother and genuinely cares about her. When Professor Crumbs threatens to take Alex’s magic away because she doesn’t turn her report card in, Justin says that Crumbs will also have to take his magic away. Justin is ultimately selfless. We see again and again the sacrifices he makes for Alex and I think we mainly see his kindness in that relationship. Despite that, I think he’s also notably kind to Juliet. When he finds out that he made the mistake of reporting Juliet and her parents, he instantly tries to fix it. Not only does he try to fix it, but he puts his job as Monster Hunter in jeopardy for Juliet and her parents - her parents haven’t even been that nice to him. Justin is ultimately selfless and at the end of the day, he sacrifices himself or what he wants for others. When Rosie turns back into a good angel, instead of selfishly continuing to date her and keeping her in the mortal world (which he could have done - she literally offers to stay with him), he gives her up because he realizes the world needs a guardian angel more than he needs a girlfriend. Even though it hurts because he loved her, he gives her up. There’s no “award” for doing this - he won’t move up a level in the wizard competition, he really won’t get any recognition for giving Rosie up. He doesn’t even get any recognition for turning the moral compass back to good. He does it because it’s the right thing to do. Although later I’ll argue that Justin is constantly seeking validation, I also think that the heroic/good things he does are often done with no expectation of being praised for it. He does them because he has a strong sense of morals. He’s also kind to Harper, Zeke, his parents, and even Max, who people rarely ever show kindness to in the show.
He’s in touch with his emotions. When the show starts, Justin is very against anything that will show him as feminine or emotional. In fact, he even says he’s allergic to emotions (or something like that) to cover for the fact that he’s crying over his missing dog. As the show goes on, we see Justin start to embrace and accept his emotions more and to lose touch with his toxic masculinity. I think dating Juliet changed him in a lot of ways (making him more relaxed, etc), and I think one was encouraging him to be more emotional. After Wizards vs. Vampires, Justin is pretty emotional and open about his emotions in the show. He’s even open with talking about them. In the movie, he opens up to Alex about how he feels like Jerry & Theresa wouldn’t love him as much if he were less “perfect,” which brings me to my next point.
At the end of the day, Justin is a sad character. I know it’s a kid’s show but they really do cover a lot of issues so bear w me. I’m hyperfixated and I like to over analyze shows so I’ve thought about this a lot. Justin is the oldest, which means he already deals with pressure to be perfect. Then, add in the fact that his parents are constantly describing him as the “perfect child” and putting him on a pedestal, while pitting the kids against each other as a result of the wizard culture bc of the family competition (I love Jerry & Theresa but they’re not perfect). He’s also a high achiever and we know he puts extreme pressure on himself to do well - they always make a joke about it but it’s actually quite sad. He literally feels poorly about himself when he gets a B and bases his entire self worth on his grades and skills as a wizard. In fact, in the movie he voices doubt about whether or not he’s good at anything other than magic. I have a few things I want to say about all of this. First of all, I think Justin is constantly seeking validation. I think as the oldest and “best” child, he feels the need to be perfect all the time, but he also does many of the things he does because he just wants validation. When Harper decides to run a marathon, Justin does too, and sadly his accomplishment of finishing it is overshadowed by Harper “winning.” I also think Justin feels threatened by the success of others because he thinks it invalidates his. When he opens up to Alex in the movie, he says that he’s jealous of her because it seems like everything comes naturally to her. Justin feels as if his parents loving his siblings takes away from their love from his. It’s irrational, but very real. Which brings me to my next point - Justin has generalized anxiety disorder. It makes sense - the overthinking, the outbursts he has (Alex refers to it as a conniption once) of panic or frustration, the overachieving, etc. As someone who probably has autism, I also think he’s autistic (which would explain his troubles with tone, struggle making friends, obsessions with things like Captain Jim Bob Sherwood and science, being better w robots than people, and so much more).
Ultimately, Justin has a strong moral backbone. Although he’s a stickler for the rules and this oftentimes leads him to do bad things initially, he always does the right thing in the end. For example, when Justin and Alex go to court and Justin duplicates himself to be his lawyer, his lawyer ultimately proves that Justin is guilty; he even says something along the lines of “We’re Justin Russo. We always do what’s moral and just.” Justin has a strong sense of justice (which could also be from being autistic but I could do a whole other post about neurodivergency coding in WOWP and Disney & Nick shows overall bc there’s a ton of coding) and does what he thinks is right, most of the time. Sure, sometimes he does bad things, but he’s also a teenager at the end of the day and he’s highly competitive.
Finally, Justin Russo is super progressive - in fact, he’s probably the most progressive characters of the show. He acknowledges climate change and actively tries to create a solution for it. In fact, for his science fair project he makes a water powered engine, which would reduce carbon emissions. He also wears a shirt at one point that says “Make art not war.” I will admit that his biases against the werewolf he dated were problematic, but he clearly grew from that because he never held any of that against Mason. He’s also into science and is a nerd and although this is a stereotype, most young people who are into science and are nerds are progressive. I’m pretty sure he also is well aware of current events and would probably read the newspaper. Also I myself headcanon Justin as trans and bi (again could make another post about characters in wowp that are queer)
Little note even tho probably no one will see this - this is all just for fun. If you disagree with anything I said, just say it politely hahsh. Also please don’t make fun of me for this WOWP is a huge hyperfixation and comfort thing for me rn and I just wanted to make a silly little post where I analyze one of my comfort characters. Also I kin Justin so pls don’t like hate on him in the comments.

Hi!! since I needed to gather a lot of courage to write this, I'd like to start by saying that your art is amazing and really adorable!!!! I will also refrain on commenting upon this situation with Misha because i don't think it's my place to say anything...but I've been reading a lot of comments and some “true” fans are all acting like this is the end of cockles. I am glad to see you are not one of those and you’ll continue to support and enjoy them. 1/3
I don’t see what happened as a hindrance in shipping/supporting them, but I guess everyone has their reasons. I don’t ship anything because there is a possibility it will happen and I don’t stop doing it if doesn’t. I usually just look at “this” and “that” and go WOW “this” and “that” have something amazing I would like to see more of them!! Jenmish have an amazing chemistry and an intense energy about them when they are together it just makes me grin like an idiot watching them interact. 2/3
So, while the idea that jenmish have a relationship that is more than friendship (however improbable this may be at the moment) is something that would be amazing, me shipping them is not based on that possibility. This means that I don’t expect anything from them, I just enjoy them being them (what/whoever that is) and hopefully others will continue to do so as well. Thank you for listening and for always trying to be as positive and optimistic as possible, it matters and it helps a lot !!! 3/3

Hi nonny! sorry for the delayed response.
I agree, I ... idk. People can jump ship if they want but I'm here. I was late to the game in the first place and only hopped on when the 2019 Jib panel happened awkejfalkwefjwa
but again, cockles is more than just two dudes potentially boning and I feel like 'true fans' would understand that? we are giddy over their energy together and their words and support with each other and like, that's valid be it a romantic relationship or a very deep friendship. It's still a good relationship and they are still very fond of each other like fuck — look at this weekends panel? It was like they didn't even skip a beat despite not sharing a stage for literal years [I'm not counting dencon tho even with dencon, it was still years, and they were still so comfortable]
so like, whatever this mess is? doesn't invalidate cockles to me in any way shape or form because I like them for tHEM, in whatever capacity they want to be in. i just like how they make me smile, and how they bounce off each other, and their friendship.
half the time i don't even say I 'ship' them, only that I sit here and wait patiently for more interactions because that's what's fun about it.
they'll always have my support, like always.
