#first world problems :(

[sagetsukimura]

Your parent gently but firmly reaching over your shoulder and removing your book from you hands, and informing you it is 2 am and you should go to bed.

Their gentleness and the inevitability does not soften the despair.

Because, now that you are grown, you no longer horde your 'To Read' pile beside your bed. Instead every tab on your phone opens only to the dreaded void, displays only '503'

But the despair, the helplessness? that remains the same.

I wonder what's the equivalent of Ao3 being down for straight people people that don't read fanfic

Feel free to ignore this, I’m just getting my thoughts out before I go mad trying to puzzle this out.

I’m trying to create a staging area for photographing things (books and merchandise, if you’re curious), and I think I’ve found an affordable solution that would also increase our storage space in the living room. (an ongoing struggle in this house)

The problem is, it's the only space where we can put our Christmas tree, and if I were to invest in this item or furniture, there is nowhere else it could be moved to in the house to make room for the tree.

So now my brain is like, well, maybe Home Depot still makes the holo glitter tree. Maybe you could get a smaller version and fit it next to the window...

Except then what do I do with the old tree?

And honestly, I don't like that we can’t see our Christmas tree from the couch because the couch faces the opposite direction (our living room and dining room are one room, the tree frames the dining table in the back while the TV faces the opposite wall where the tv is because it's the only blank wall without a window/built-in in the room) so maybe we should just redo the layout of the entire room???

The TV in that room is somewhat old and freezes up a lot. Maybe if we got a smaller one, it’d fit on the wall with the built-in shelves, and I could move the couch and make space for the Christmas tree...

This is the part where if I was still able bodied I’d start playing furniture Tetris until I figured this out, but alas, I am a sick bitch reliant on the help of others and Mothman’s the type of neurodivergent that hates change in his environment without thorough planning and negotiation.

We’re the epitome of immovable object meets unstoppable force.

Or we would be if I was still physically capable of the gremlin energy my brain puts out.

Anyway. I’ve been thinking about this for hours and it all comes down to the fact that I have too much stuff but also not enough of the right stuff. Annoying.

Reader curls Geto's hair w a straightener and keeps her hand btwn the straightener and Geto's skin so as to not burn him but burns herself instead heheheh

„I’m not really a pro at this, but I’m trying my best.“

It sounded so easy in your head. After all, you curled your hair like that for what feels like forever by now. But doing this on another person is totally different.

His strands of hair fight desperately against the heat of the straightener, don’t allow you to put them in those cute curls you imagined earlier at all. Damn, it took you way too long to even convince Suguru to do this, you can’t give up now.

“We don’t have to do this, I’m-“

“NO”, you interrupt him immediately.

“Believe me, I got this, I’ve done this a thousand times, I-“

Out of instinct, your hand flinches back in an instant scorching pain that leaves you dizzy for a second. Fuck, did you really put your hand between the straightener? Your fingers start shaking almost immediately, the upbuilding burn leaving you breathless.

Fighting monsters as a living and a little burn with a straightener brings tears to your eyes?

“Hey, are you okay, (y/n)? Did you burn yourself?”

“No.”

Your miserable attempt to lie yourself out of this fails immediately. When Suguru turns around, his eyes widen in shock.

“Did you put your whole hand between that thing? I told you those cursed machines are dangerous.”

“I said I’m fine!”, you blurt out.

“Let’s finish this…”

“With that hand? Ain’t no way, (y/n). Go and see Shoko before your skin gets all bubbly.”

“All bubbly?”

“Never heard of blisters?”

“I…I don’t want that”, you finally give in.

“I promise I let you curl my hair once again if you go see Shoko right now”, Suguru speaks out gently while letting his hand run through your very own hair.

“Fine”, you grumble while putting the straightener out in the most dramatic way.

“Stupid death machine”, you hiss while trotting towards Shoko’s office.

I'm trying to get a photo but all the lights in this building are motion activated so every time I think I've found a dark room the lights turn on!

what is it with me always falling for these chinese fandoms where spicy shit isnt officially allowed and then the authors have to get all creative to tiptoe around the government and find weird and unique ways to give us thirsty hoes the juice we so crave but then the ppl in fandom always deliver the filthiest, most raunchy fanfics and I'm all here for it. first 19 days, then tian guan ci fu and now love and deepspace... someone send a rescue team before i lose even more of my money and dignity

So I was thinking about doing a doodle with the Batboys being corrupted by the Chaos god from War-hammer 40K.

I know for sure that Tim would be corrupted by Tzeentch and Dick would be Slaanesh, but I'm not sure about Damian and Jason.

I'm thinking Khorne for Jason and Nurgle for Damian...but the opposite might work for them too..hmmmm

[metamatar]

so i have gone through life around people who did mean well. which is incredibly lucky – and im still so fucked up. it just makes it really hard to draw clean lines around what is maladaptive and why.

[xno-chill-memesx]

This is true

On one hand I got a job (yay) but on the other hand I can't sit and stare at a blank page for hours on end (boo)

Ok something I just noticed about this photo:

HOW FUCKING DEEP ARE DAVID’S PANTS POCKETS?!

Why the hell don’t I have pants pockets that deep?! I need to hold shit too you know! Half the time my pockets are the third of the size of a normal iPhone. Or they’re just a seem that’s been stitched down. FAKE POCKETS! What am I going to do with FAKE POCKETS!

Or worst of all NO POCKETS AT ALL!

Where can I put my hands when I trying to casually stroll around and pretend that I’m Crowley I ask you?!

I’m trying to go for an aesthetic here and completely failing because apparently David Tennant gets ALL THE POCKETS!

They banned leyline of resonance. Of course they did. It was my favorite card. I could get turn two wins if I got the right hand. Now my deck is completely broken. I feel so impotent.
