los human AU wiwis

wheatley, chell and arthur when they were younger :3

chell was adopted when she was 10 years old, she spent early life in an orphanage, she struggled being around other kids and always preferred playing alone.

her favorite toy was a fox plushie! everytime she was found smiling was while playing with it.

it was, however, a shared toy that belonged to the orphanage and when she got adopted she had to leave it behind. when her loving adoptive father bought her a new fox plushie, she found herself missing the first one, it just wasn’t the same ❤️‍🩹

i like to think she became more lively and cheerful once adopted, having a caring parent changed her for the best. she even got to participate to the Bring Your Daughter To Work Day at Aperture, where her father worked, and she got first place 🔥

wheatley has been chatty ever since he was a little kid!!! always yapping people’s ears off. kids used to avoid him so similarly to chell he was lonely, but unlike her, he continuously seeked out company and genuine friends, always failing

Arthur (cake core) is Wheatley’s younger brother, they used to spend so much time together as children but then he was sent to boarding school due to his very high grades so that’s when they started drifting apart

(Bullying CW)

Wheatley stayed in regular schools due to his below average grades and performance, he changed schools 3 times in total and one of those times it was due to him getting involved in a fight with bullies, which he didn’t start, but he got punished for swinging first after months of harassment. that school in specific was rly bad for him but things got better for him once he was transferred, he still struggled with loneliness tho

but yeah main idea is that chell’s loneliness is a choice, while wheatley’s isn’t. lol

chell likes being around friendly faces but she actually enjoys her alone time and is a lone wolf at heart. wheatley is in desperate need of real connections, of people who take him seriously and want him around. Sobs

wanting to talk to people is so fucking embarrassing. literally hi it's me again I wanted to have a conversation with you because I think you're fun to talk to. oh god you can just fucking kill me if you want sorry

[nondivisable]

I need to say something and I need y'all to be calm

if it isn't actively bad or harmful, no representation should be called "too simple" or "too surface level"

I have a whole argument for this about the barbie movie but today I wanna talk about a show called "the babysitters club" on Netflix

(obligatory disclaimer that I watched only two episodes of this show so if it's super problematic I'm sorry) (yes. I know it's based on a book, this is about the show)

this is a silly 8+ show that my 9 year old sister is watching and it manages to tackle so many complex topics in such an easy way. basic premise is these 13 year old girls have a babysitting agency.

in one episode, a girl babysits this transfem kid. the approach is super simple, with the kid saying stuff like "oh no, those are my old boy clothes, these are my girl clothes". they have to go to the doctor and everyone is calling the kid by her dead name and using he/him and this 13 year old snaps at like a group of doctors and they all listen to her. it's pure fantasy and any person versed in trans theory would point out a bunch of mistakes.

but after watching this episode, my little sister started switching to my name instead of my dead name and intercalating he/him pronouns when talking about me.

one of the 13 years old is a diabetic and sometimes her whole personality is taken over by that. but she has this episode where she pushes herself to her limit and passes out and talks about being in a coma for a while because of not recognizing the limits of her disability.

and this allowed my 9 year old sister to understand me better when I say "I really want to play with you but right now my body physically can't do that" (I'm disabled). she has even asked me why I'm pushing myself, why I'm not using my crutches when I complain about pain.

my mom is 50 years old and watching this show with my sister. she said the episode about the diabetic girl helped her understand me and my disability better. she grew up disabled as well, but she was taught to shut up and power through.

yes, silly simple representation can annoy you if you've read thousands of pages about queer liberation or disability radical thought, but sometimes things are not for you.

diet culture people make me feel like i’m going crazy. you want me to take an experimental pill that destroys my appetite?? you want me to remove part of my stomach??? you want me to stop eating bread and rice, two of the staple foods most inherent to humanity????? why exactly? because my stomach is big? because you don’t like the way i look, and you think it’s reasonable to tell me to carve pieces off of myself and try random drugs and ruin my own life so i can look more visually pleasing to you? and you somehow don’t see how absurdly cruel and selfish that is to ask of somebody???? while pretending you care about their HEALTH????????????????? FUCK YOU!!!!

people who only use conventional social media are so funny bc they’ll casually be like “can I see your tumblr??” are you Insane. this is no instagram or twitter. this is my vault of secrets

i feel like it's absolutely crucial in the social justice world to take "he a little confused but he got the spirit" and similar sentiments/situations as a Win. intent is so much more important than saying it right the first time! if someone is approaching with scuffed language and incorrect terms but they're visibly being as polite as they know how, that person is a friend and should be treated better than what their words might invite in someone else's mouth.

“If you have time to watch Netflix you have time for a side hustle” my side hustle is relaxing so that my body and brain can heal from by this nose-to-the-grindstone bullshit. I refuse to feel guilty for being a human with the need to relax sometimes. my side hustle is no.
