If OP is 24 I kinda get why they feel that way but like....In general, I find it so weird when people hate getting older.
It's one thing when teens do it, because they literally do not know better lol. They haven't experienced that type of feeling yet, so of course it'll be overwhelming and scary, and the way ppl set up adulthood (even tho, lets be real, your 20s is not what adulthood looks like) it makes complete sense why they dread it or look down upon it.
But how do you feel that in your mid 20s? Have you not caught on that life is about growing and changing and that it truly only improves with time? I think most people start getting excited about growing at that point.
And to be clear, this improvement in life isn't things just "getting better", it's more so that your mind grows. You become more confident and less antsy about how others view you because you realize other people have just as complex minds and inner worlds as you. You yourself become less judgemental and realize there's no rules, or rather, what rules hold value to you, and the autonomy to live your life by your own standards.
Basically, you become....well....an adult. You start understanding why adults told you the things that consumed you in your youth aren't important and why you were not allowed to be a certain way. You also learn that some of these (or a lot, in which case I'm so sorry omg) adults are wrong. You stop seeing yourself as a dumb little baby and instead as their equal, you learn that they didnt know much at all and feel like a fool for ever believing them.
You realize life is not static. You are not frozen in your worst, or even your best, moments. You start seeing the flow of life and realizing what living really is. You are no longer consumed by despair until its deserved. You appreciate every good moment knowing it's not forever but also that more will come.
This, in my opinion, is the greatest realization of your 20s. It doesn't really matter how things go, it doesn't matter how much it may feel like you are stuck, or suffering, or incapable of growth because everything leads to this. The realization that life is long and open and full of the unexpected and coming to terms with your place in this world are impossible to escape. You always find yourself here, even if it takes you a little longer than others....
what do y’all think happens once you hit age 25. your Doing Things card gets revoked?
#like believe me when I say this#i am not living the dream lmaooo#but even I learned this#i think in some ways#if things all go to plan#is when you arent able to figure this out#not that you never will#just that it gets pushed forward#literally kicking the can down the road#also stop judging bitches for clubbing at 27 lol#like....partying is literally eternal#have you never seen how aunties and uncles get down at the function#dancing and singing in crowds while possibly inebriated is like air and water bitchessss#partying is a right!!! 😆

Kiss Kiss Fallen Tree!
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#Sorry to everyone who was looking forwards to this comic only to find out I put WWX in the ugliest outfit.#Continuity came first. Plus let's be honest; he did *not* show up in anything fancy. Or in all black as seen in most fanart.#We are at the middle of WWX depression arc. His self-care was 100% because Jin Yanli would be sad if he didn't try to look nice.#Okay okay. Fine I've delayed talking about the kiss long enough.#It is absolutely a core LWJ scene over a WWX scene. Which is made even more fascinating because we don't get his POV.#But we get so many insights! His loss of control and his firmness all contrasted against how he trembles.#And all of that wrapped up in a wonderful self-loathing bow! You go Lan Zhan! You hated yourself so much for this!#WWX is a hilarious narrator for this because he is truly just...baffled by what's going on.#He would push the person away but he doesn't want to hurt their feelings or pride (putting other people first again are we?)#I do understand why this one is divisive for people though. I choose to look at it through a character/humourous lens.#I've seen people defend and admonish this scene as a particularly shitty thing LWJ did and let's be very clear here: It was.#That's why I like it. LWJ did a shitty thing and struggles with it. It's part of what makes him so robust as a character.#It's also fine if you enjoy this scene for it's eroticism. You're not a bad person for that. You are just A Person.#People will have their own experiences with this topic. Be kind to each other alright?

Something I like about Leo is that he’s honestly really chill? It’s easy to remember the moments where he’s being obnoxious or excitable but I feel like most of the time he’s incredibly “go with the flow” and has an overall affable demeanor.
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt leo#rise leo#Genuinely speaking I feel like said demeanor is incredibly useful for when he has to charm and/or persuade people into listening to him#I have a whole post talking about Leo’s charm and how he consistently gets people to hear him out even if he’s annoyed or upset them#like they’ll still listen to what he has to say in full#his charisma stat is real and utilized quite often in this series I swear he’s not just a loser cringeboy all the time 😭#if he wants to persuade and/or charm then he honestly sooo often does#me listing the 400th reason why Leo grows up to be the worlds best ninja and a good 365 of those reasons are Leo’s various subterfuge skill#Like most episodes where he’s not the main focus (and even many where he is)#he’s a voice of reason who notices things quickly and is often the one taking point to talk down situations#something interesting I found between Leo and Mikey is that#Mikey tells people what they need to hear#Leo tells people what they want to hear#not only out of his own agenda either#when bullhop was wrecking their home leo was the one that negotiated to make the situation go smoother#even if he would have rather bullhop left#meanwhile Mikey is the one who bluntly tells things as it is#small character moment that means a lot to me#Mikey is an honest boy who is upfront about his feelings#Leo prefers to let people make their own decisions he wants them to through steering the convo in that direction#but he is easily cowed by guilt#regardless leo is a people person - he knows how to talk to them and how to manipulate/persuade#and I like that his bros know this and often push him forward to do the talking if they wanna charm someone into doing what they want#I think Leo’s hope speeches are also an example of this - he’s saying what people really want to hear (and often it’s ALSO what they NEED)#the further the series goes on the higher Leo’s inner stress rises and he just keeps that chill aura anyway#there’s a reason!!! he wanted to go to a SPA so badly!!#literally the first thing he does when he gets in is rest#no joke meditation would do him good? like- it’s a Leo thing and I genuinely think rise leo would be no different here

been thinking about Roy's story a lot this past week...
(no crossposts this time but here's my new Bluesky account for whenever I do end up posting there!)
#fire emblem#roy#fe6#binding blade#elibe#just. like...#how he faces a villain whose whole campaign revolves around demonstrating the worst humanity has to offer as a point of principle#and the sum of it all just eats away at what little he has to give#but he keeps pushing forward#and maintains enough curiosity and compassion to perform arguably the purest act of heroism by an FE protagonist#something he will never be lauded or remembered for#insert “it got to me” meme here#will return to pasha comics soon#just needed to get this out of my system#love and courage to you all 💚

please pray for my grandad-in-law in the coming months, it’s suspected he has cancer in his lymph nodes and there’s a plan for surgery but he also has pretty severe heart failure so general anesthetic is risky.
#both zach and grandma-in-law have an anxiety thing going where ever since he got sick#it’s just ‘oh the Inevitable is finally here’#Zach i’ve managed to convince to at least try to push back panic with ‘I don’t know the outcome I will go forward acknowledging that#the worst could happen but also knowing that it also might not’#but his grandma is a wreck and I know it’s gonna get worse as we get closer to all the big stuff#please especially pray for peace in their family because let’s just say there’s some stuff that needs to be in order#and some silly conflicts they need to settle#prayer request

ok so
the instructions were for Wally, not the whrp/qa/You. which is especially interesting, because I think we all assumed they were instructions from Wally - after all, he's the one telling the whrp that they have work to do, he's sending envelopes (assumedly), he's sort of the driving force behind the whole in-universe project. he calls the shots, in a way. he's the one with the phone.
so who the hell is giving Wally instructions?
is it related to the distorted "extra" voice under Wally's in some of his hidden record audios? is it related to Sally's "monster"? is there someone else in Home?
just... there's a whole 'nother layer underneath Wally that i think is really scary. there's something else there, i feel. i Fear. i wonder if Wally is aware of it, or if he isn't quite as aware as we all - including him - like to think. how aware can a puppet be if they can't see their own strings (so to speak)? it's one thing to know what you are, and another entirely to understand what that entails.
#is there a puppetmaster? something or someone lurking underneath the surface?#i know there's not like... a Big Bad if i remember correctly#but im really suspicious that there is something Extra fucking with wally#like i really hope wally is acting of his own accord#but then again - what if its a mix of him acting on his own AND something else pushing him forward#is there something trying to get Out of home?#i think now of the 'im going to get it out' sentence from the about us page#i feel like wally is trying to stay In. i feel like he just wants to revive the show but he wants to Stay#so what the hell is trying get Out. to Leave#that sentence could just be talking about the show / memories of it#but now. im just. im thinking#homebogging#and i cant remember exactly but something about wally closing the guestbook bc it wasnt 'fun' anymore for some reason#i doubt the extra secret Something is home themself#because home seems to be Suffering to an extent from wally's attempts to connect with the 'outside' world#SO WHAT IS IT? HUH#i swear to fuck its connected to sally's so-called monster. the distortion. the spiral/eye pit. something looking through wally#which - no too many thoughts about that to say in tags#AND WHY IS WALLY DOING WHAT WHATEVER IT IS SAYS#is it automatic? like a 'oh. instructions. ill follow them' or does he Know who's talking to him or or or#i feel like an entire layer of the story was just revealed to us in one small simple marvelous update#who the hell is telling wally darling what to do...

Hey.
Kim teaching Harry how to skateboard and Harry teaching Kim how to roller skate.
Harry thinks he fucking sucks at first because Kim gets the hang of roller skating pretty quickly. As it turns out, skateboarding is a lot harder than roller skating.
I don’t know where I’m going with this. Um. Kim still prefers skateboarding because of the technical aspect and risk factor but he’s surprised he enjoys how chill roller skating is.
Harry enjoys skateboarding because a) time with Kim as a teacher and b) oh wow a challenge? Your physical instrument loves challenges. You will conquer this with the force of your—what do you mean this is more the centipede’s thing? Holy shit no wonder Kim’s so cool
#disco elysium#harry du bois#kim kitsuragi#anyway I got a cheap Walmart skateboard yesterday and I’m a little bit taken in right now#practiced just getting on the board and pushing forward for like 30 minutes and ended up sweating#confused at first before I remembered…#you know how you get super fucking tired after a long day of travel in the car or on the train and stuff#it’s because your body is always making micro adjustments to keep you in place#and skateboarding? it’s all about body control baby#skateboarding is hard man#be cool to have a custom made Dolores dei skateboard though imo

Are you just gonna keep pushing it back everyday? Likeer
thea works nine hour shifts that take up most of the day’s waking hours, meaning that the only time she’s had to work on the fic during the week are either at 6 am before work or at 10 pm after work (after consistently chaotic nine hour shifts). she has consistently been getting 5 hours of sleep a night to work on a chapter that is currently over thirty thousand words long (30k!!! and counting!!!) for you guys, AND she had an interview this morning the literal second she clocked into work. personally, i think she’s allowed to prioritize her rest and sanity and push the chapter back as often as she needs to if she doesn’t think the stress of a 2 am upload is worth it. kind of weird that you don’t think that tho 🤨
#i understand it’s disappointing to look forward to something just to have it delayed but if you have been seeing her push it back you have#also definitely seen her posting abt how long it’s been taking and how late she’s been working on it and how tiring the editing process gets

yay a week until my 29th bday ✨🔥😎🔥✨
#about myself#heldig life stories#birthday#it's hard to believe that a year ago in that same period of time i wrote my last will haha#the only reason i didn't make an attempt on myself was my hyper responsibility 'cause i wanted a notary to approve my last will#so my beloved ones would have no problems with my property and my corpse after i die#but i had no time to do so and then my husband led me to psychiatrist and she confirmed i'm having a suicidal depression all my life#after i described my habitual living she was shocked that i managed to go so long without any medication just on my inner will itself#just because i constantly pushed myself forward from 'you need to go everyone counts on you'#but then it was awfully worsened by my long term burnout due to constant work crunches to the point when my inner will became not enough#and i stopped functioning like a normal person completely: not eating not getting up from the bed not wanting anything except disappearing#now i'm on antidepressants and it feels like i'm awake from a living time nightmare#it would have been so much easier if someone gave me antidepressants back then when i was 14 and tried to take my own life for the 1st time#fortunately unsuccessfully#so it will be another happy birthday to me that i wasn't supposed to live haha#don't be like me pls don't ignore yourselves and your condition and instead take care of yourselves dudes <3#go to the doctor if you need to it's neither scary nor shameful - it can literally save your life#hug you all tightly

imagine a small town having an annual mechanical bull riding contest but for overdue pregnant people
#pregnancy kink#public birth#birth kink#imagine the birth denial#imagine the public birth#when they fall off the bull they just lay there to tired and bruised to do anything while contractions work their way through their body#and their baby gushes out of them while the whole town watched#or someone who was denying their own birth to win and doing their best to hold their baby in#and after they do win they slide off the bull thinking they'll easily give birth like everyone else#but maybe the baby is huge or a breech or gets stuck#and they're too tired to do anything but lay there and cry#and the whole town watches but doesn't come into the bull pit and stays outside the fenced off area#imagine the town cheering everytime the head inches forward and booing everytime it slides back in#or what if there's some other complication like cord around the neck#but after finally getting off the bull and pressure finally being released the baby shoots forward#and now someone who just gave birth comes over and pushes the baby back in and tries to turn it#but they just tried to ride a bucking machine and then gave birth immediately after so they aren't the most steady or careful#and maybe accidentally causes more pain#but still no one in town jumps in because they like seeing#these helpless pregnant heifers birthing in pain and clumsily trying to help each other and fail#lol that ran away from me
