#fatherless rambles

[bughideout]

My reading goal of the year is 20 books

Books I've read this year

Metamorphosis, Franz Kafka

Never let me go, Kazou Ishiguro

Heaven, Meiko Kawakami

If cats disappeared from the world, Genki Kawamura

Minor detail, Adania Shibli

Notes from underground, fyodor dostoevsky

Nineteen eighty-four, George Orwell

Almond, Won-pyung Sohn

These violent delights, Micah Nemerever

Minor Detail is a book that left a strong impression on me, it's a short read and I cannot recommend it enough. I read the entire thing in one sitting. Normally I would be capable of reading more through a year but it's been a really tough year, becoming fatherless and all. (Hes not dead, just not in my life, he sucks) and graduating from 10th grade and starting a new school is very tough for me as an autistic person. Most of these books were read in January and then I didn't read way too much throughout the year until recently.

My tbr/books I am reading

The brothers karamazov, fyodor dostoevsky

The plague, Albert camus

The world according to physics, Jim al-khalili

The unbearable lightness of being, Milan Kundera

Life for sale, yukio mishima

Nausea, Jean-Paul Sartre

All the lovers in the night, meiko kawakami

White nights, fyodor dostoevsky

The double, fyodor dostoevsky

A man's place, Annie Ernoux

im not a super emotional person, when it comes to my personal life, so this is new for me.

my father left my family when i was 14 due to his alcoholism. he always said he'd kick it, but he never put in the work. i guess it never really hurt me when he left, because i was just expecting it. but im sitting on the bus, and theres an ad for and alcoholic recovery group on the wall—and the tagline on it, is a father holding his two daughters, saying "i did it for my girls" and i cant help but be. angry. and sad. i guess.

sorry for a bit over sharing, but i dont know who to talk to this about, haha

[dingdawny]

Hi chat sorry to drop this on main but I just wanted to explain my possible absence for a bit so no one worries and also bc I don't have the mental energy to dm people individually to say that I won't be online. But my dad died last night in his sleep so erm yeah. Might not be super active for a while and I'm sorry if I seem off or dismissive or anything.

Love yall <3

I really like that Luffy single teen dad one you did it's great! do you think you can do a part 2? Focusing more on how Luffy view and raise his kid?

I really, really can't see Luffy raising a kid. Not on purpose at least.

He'd have to basically make exceptions that Shank's wouldn't, compromising the foundation of what he believes to be a pirate to take a baby with him. Or a toddler.

And there are a few brutal ass wake up calls along the way that would do much to dissuade him from persisting with a kid on board. Just a regular kid, mind you, to speak nothing of basically everyone hating that the kid is there for one reason or another.

Luffy is violent, aggressive, passionate, and thinks very little of broader consequences when it comes to his goals. He has had way too few gentle role models to appropriately raise a kid, like, at all. Even if the kid was half as durable as he was (before DF), it would not be a pleasant ride for much of that kids life.

I'm not saying he'd abuse his kid, but like...

It's going to take a miracle for this kid to be well adjusted if they're 'raised' by young Luffy.

Even if he got it into his head that kids are delicate little things, he'd need to launch away from danger and, idk how strong you think toddler necks are, but they ain't sling shot a few dozen feet in seconds strong.

He would need to do A LOT OF FUCKING GROWING before I'd even consider his ass a viable parenting option. I mean, hell, in Wano he's such an ass to that little girl who just got the news about Ace broken to him.

I mean, obvs he's still pretty devastated, but she's just a kid and this one, amazing man who selflessly helped her village despite the circumstances had died and she's expected to give grace to Luffy before he gives some to her for... You know. Being a kid and losing what was a charismatic role model in terrible times.

Her.

She's literally 8.

Most kids at that age have a hard time conceptualizing death, let alone empathy over their own grief for someone else who has experienced the loss in a much more raw way.

This is about 2 years of piracy. He's 19. It's been 2 years (the loss is no less devastating but he's had time to process that grief). Tama literally just found out and was essentially told "stf, u met him once, that's literally his bro who has been living that reality for 2 years".

So yeah... Luffy is nowhere near mature enough to be handling a young kid right now as a father, let alone when he's like, 12/13?????? I'd like to say he'd learn, but with role models like his... I fear for that baby.

I love Luffy, he'd be a great vacation uncle or smt, but Jesus Christ DO NOT MAKE HIM A SINGLE FATHER FOR AT LEAST FIVE MORE YEARS OT SMT

That's not to say he wouldn't try, mind you. He would genuinely do his best until realizing that Shanks was right to not sail with a baby on board. He's got a lot of love to give, but he is far from a gentle man in any aspect.

I think, more than any overt danger, it would only take seeing his kid in fear to realize that this is no life for a child.

Sure, he was scared growing up at times, but those dangers seemed so small in hindsight. With (usually) grown ups pulling him out of the worst of it. And half of those were Garp's fault to start with as 'training'.

This realization, ironically, would make him a better father than most. The desire for his kid to live in a way that would have been impossible for himself. Free of fear and loneliness and brutality.

There's time for strength later.

Did he not spend so many hours as a boy running through the forest side by side with his brothers, safe in the knowledge he wasn't alone? The worst for they'd face a crocodile, which they'd serve for dinner that night.

He didn't spend day after day scared Marines would sink his home to the ocean floor. Afraid that all his loved ones, who cared about his safety, would be killed for pursuing their dreams.

I'm not even sure he'd get to this point, or if he's just Decide his kid needed to grow stronger somewhere a little less... Fatal than the grand line.

Tldr: his heart is in the right place. He doesn't want to abandon his baby so easily (though he doesn't seem to miss the void his literal parents were meant to fill). But to pursue his dreams necessitates danger around every corner. And he won't sacrifice his kid for his dream--or his dream for his kid.

They'll grow up somewhere safe and loved, probably with daily calls to check in when possible. And when he's strong enough that nothing and no one could ever touch him, he'll come back and take his baby anywhere they want to go. Teach them everything he knows.

He made a mistake thinking he could save Ace when he was so weak, and Ace was a grown man with his own incredible strength. His kid is just that... A kid. No chance against many of the people he's faced.

Luffy is selfish, greedy, violent, and childishly cruel. But he's also deeply perceptive when the time comes and knows what it takes to survive. He loves boundlessly and has already tasted loss so many times.

He loves his kid, and he learned from a young age that loving someone sometimes means leaving them behind.

Occasionally I think about how someone got super heated about me making a post about autism that they sent me death threats and called me a “fatherless female”

[crispycrunchers]

what are your favorite things about fnaf ? could be your favorite characters, game, silly things like that :3c

welcome to tumblr btw !! i hope you like it here :D

Well, first off, I was a really weird kid so fnaf just reach that part of my brain that probably shouldn't have been stimulated lol. And now, being a perfectly normal human being, I will answer this question with the utmost detail and passion- I mean, casual explanation.

I think what I really like most is the storyline, I know, big shocker. But I am an absolute lore nerd. If a video game/movie/show/literally anything else has deep lore, I'm going to be all up in there. I really like the complexity of it, since it leaves a lot of room for theories and ideas, so there is a lot more participation and creativity in the fandom rather than everything bring handed to us on a silver platter as cannon. It's really a lot of fun for me to hear other peoples theories and then gather my own from the little and big details in each game.

Other than that, I'd say probably my favorite game is Security Breach, since that's when I really got into the fandom if you know what I mean. I grew up with the older games, but really started to like it after Security Breach came out. Though, Security Breach is having to fight one-on-one with Into The Pit, since that one was pretty awesome, and I REALLY liked the art and graphics of it. I really like that digital type art.

Though, on the topic of Into The Pit, I was a little upset that they kind of abandoned Cassie and Gregory, and I really hope they use them in the future, specifically Cassie since I really feel like they could make her an awesome protagonist or even a sick-as-hell villain.

My favorite character is most likely Glamrock Freddy, he's just so golden retriever dad material and I am painfully fatherless.

Anyways, if this doesn't show you how much of a yapper I can be, I don't know what does :') thank you for the question~!

[oldladyhabits]

if somebody tries to use "fatherless" as an insult to me one more time I swear I'm trauma dumping to them

There's a phenomenon that occurs in both Avalir and Cathmoíra.

Not all of the populace is quite conscious of it, but clerics, druids, and midwives alike are acutely aware and make appropriate preparations for the occasion.

It is known as the Replenishment Boom. With little exceptions, eight to nine months out of Avalir's departure, there'll be a boom of births on Toramunda as a whole even as Crown and Throne grow further apart. This event only reinforces the concept of those seven years as a new cycle, that first year as a new start. Ripples of this phenomenon can also be seen throughout the rest of Domunas.

ive truly gaslit myself into think smokescreen and knock out are friends. they barely interact in canon but ive convinced myself that they'd have such a solid amicable partnership that it is beginning to infect every fic i write

[masked-and-doomed]

What mental illness is making me very unnormal abt characters and in like a separate non-blorbo way

[toesuckler]

"fatherless" jokes are just an alt right dog whistle 2 me tbh . like the explanation "bad times make strong men, strong men make good times, good times make weak men, weak men make bad times" is so bullshit alt right mysogynist nonsense.

[sweetpupii]

my mom saw whatever my dad got me for christmas and said "why couldn't you be my father? :(" ok woman don't trauma dump on this christmas evening
