You know it’s actually really nice being trans and true to myself as a person

Like, progress feels slow but every month I look back and think “Wow, that’s something unique I learned about myself!” And I am a much happier person because of that!

There is a girl under all of these repressed feelings that me and my friends are uncovering.

And she is just, Wonderful

Me just laying in bed chilling the fuck out:

My brain: do you think doffy gets bad insomnia alongside his nightmares.

Me who's an insomniac that also has nightmares due to ptsd: *few seconds of thinking* he fucking would the poor bastard.. and it's not like anyone can convince him to sleep, what the fuck are they gonna do?

My brain: true..we should write about it.

Me: stop with the false motivation man you do this all the time.. not a bad thought.

Random thought, but I cannot be the only one thinking Venti and Kaeya would appreciate Eurovision immensely.

i really just dont think more than one person cares that i write fics tbh

and yes i love that one person so so so much and i love creating with and for them and its the light of my miserable existence

but it would just.. sometimes be nice. to be acknowledged when i do share something publicly

and yes i know it only matters that im happy and im writing for a niche ship within a niche fandom; trust me ive heard it all before. it doesnt change the fact that i feel like i dont even exist as a writer, like in general. within the fandom or otherwise

and idk its just very demotivating and it sucks so

We Don't Have Enough Time

This is a personal story and some reflections I had about these events.

Your best friend calls you. You two haven't talked in two weeks, catching up has become less and less frequent. You normally place the blame on the fact you're both twenty-something.

You pick up the phone and greet her with the usual:

- Hey Trixie! - made up name for privacy's sake - How are you? - Horrible.

Usually this kind of dry and negative answer is paired with sarcasm or a pinch of hyperbole. But not this time. Over the last two weeks a lot happened, too much happened. Her cat died. As she is talking to you she is on the way to her grandfather's funeral. And her mother, the mother of your best friend, was diagnosed with cancer a few days prior. She does not know what to do, and you don't know what to say. And in the dreadful silence that takes place after hearing these news, all you can think is:

How much time do we really have?

I have been on a hiatus since July, both creatively and socially. Since then I have gone back to therapy, and what began as a journey full of sadness and self isolation has now become a depression diagnosis and a battle against time to find who am I and what time do we have.

After the phone call I couldn't help but remember of a week in 2012, when a friend invited me to his uncle's country house. I was pretty nervous in the beginning but the following three days were some of the best of my life. But one thing I remember very clearly was his uncle, who was always drunk, but he is the kind of guy who gets funny when he drinks, and in one afternoon while he was watering his plants he looked at me and said:

- You... You look like a cowboy! - He sprays me with his garden hose - I'm gonna call you... Bill!

Ever since then my friend his whole family calls me Bill, I find it funny how such a random event became part of our little culture.

In 2023 this uncle said he was feeling too weak to take care of the garden in his country house. Not too long after he discovered he has stage 4 cancer. Now, he decided to enjoy whatever time he has left by doing what he loves with the people he loves by his side. The man who is such an integral part of such a fun memory of mine is fading. And I don't know what to do. 

She whispers.

However, that phone call was a wake up call, and it finally made me understand: For a moment in the beginning of this year (2023), there was the very real possibility that my father could die. He had a aneurysm that doctors could only describe as a "ticking time bomb".

Our whole family was immensely worried, people who hadn't called in ages reached out, prayed for us, and offered help afraid that the worse could happen.Luckily, after two weeks and a twelve hour surgery, he was free. But, to me, it took more time than that to process what happened. We worried he could have died during the surgery, we worried he could have died during the two weeks of waiting, but never worried about any of that before discovering he had a problem.

I didn't know what to do, until it hit me:

One thing is knowing you're going to die. But KNOWING you're going to die is a very different story.

Death is not obvious in our day to day lives. It doesn't hunt us down in the form a wolf, nor is it a grim reaper. Death whispers. And as gracefuly as things are created they are taken away, but we are too proud to accept that. We are too arrogant, thinking we always have one more day to live and too little time to reach out to a friend.

So call your loved ones. Life goes by so quickly, and who knows how much more time do we have? If only I could protect the people I love in the realm of my dreams. But I can't, it's not up to me. So care for those you have near you. Not in fear of death, but as a celebration of life.

And in a prayer that we both will have one more day... I finish by hoping to...

See ya in the near future!

I know it's wrong and bad to say this, but sometimes I really hate when my friends have other friends. (specifically when I can't also be friends with those friends) because every time I want someone to hang out with or talk to, the only couple friends I have are always busy with their other friends. when I want to plan something with them, they will always choose the other friends over me. they will cancel plans *with* me as soon as other friends ask, but won't cancel plans *for* me when i ask. they will use up their social spoons on other friends and leave none for me. always putting things with me off or simply not responding at all.

i'm always told by random people when I say I want mkre friends "it's better to have a couple great friends than many aquantances" or something like that. but honestly it sucks because you can't rely on 1-2 people to always be there for you every day or every week when you want or need someone. if you keep asking, you're seen as annoying and clingy and they will ignore you eventually (or worse)

it's annoying that they get to fill their social needs at all times, but I never get to. because i'm never the one that gets to go first in the social queue. and when it gets to my turn, it refreshes and i'm pushed to the back again.

the only solution I can ever think of is being friends with my friends' friends too....but for some reason!!!!!! that never works out!!!! (if my friends will even share their friends with me to begin with)

[theflyingfeeling]

you’re not the only one who has spent the past days thinking about olliallu kisses 😩 but aaaaaaaaa tipsy kisses 😭🥺💕 and some hotel room cuddles after a show 💗🥺 and them trying not to get caught in the tour bus 👀

and I gotta admit I also thought about them sharing some secret kisses in the Aleksi’s home studio while his partner is home (but it wasn’t their intention!! it just happened)

oh god these two are just made to share cute, loveydovey kisses with each other aren't they 😩

hhmmhmhmmhmhmhmhmh yesyesyes this is so very mhmhmhmhm 👀👀👀👀 alsooooooo can we discuss the turmoil of finally realising you've fallen for a bandmate, like, they've spent weeks, maybe months just trying to ignore this stupid feeling they may or may not have (or, alternatively, trying to understand it, but they can't quite grasp it) and trying to rationalize and come up with other explanations for it, and then they have a hot, spur-of-the-moment making-out session while ever-so-slightly wine drunk and they're like oh shit oh fuck oh shit am I ACTUALLY falling for him oh no this is terrible 😭

'friends falling in love when they shouldn't' my most beloved angsty trope <3

After some consideration, I decided to turn my current art Instagram into a professional/animation-only profile, and make a new Instagram where I can post whatever fanart and drawings I want. Give a follow if you're interested! <3

P.S I should be able to change the username to temtamtom soonn

Didn't think the 1989 version of The Woman In Black would be scarier than the one with Dan Radcliffe in it

I was Wrong flkjdsafkldsja, but I'm delighted to have been wrong. I had missed getting scared with more practical effects/careful timing of things in the background of shots appearing and disappearing, and this one scratches that itch well.

I've grown so comfortable with who I am now that I sometimes forget that there are still people in the world who don't believe cringe is dead. Like I blink rapidly when I talk about something I did that I enjoyed myself with and the response is dicey, as if I should feel ashamed for drawing cartoon characters or writing stories about them.

As if the literal people that make these things aren't adults themselves. As if whole careers aren't based around making content about little guys and what they do in their lives.

who hurt all tomorrows for you :(

Spent a really long time questioning if I was ace or somewhere on the asexual spectrum. And now I have the most wonderful partner who is ace and it’s so safe and lovely to have someone I love without having to sacrifice my boundaries. I still don’t know exactly where I fit but I’m really happy. And I love that you’re ace. It feels so nice to have someone I really respect and admire feel somewhat the same. I love the community

what the heck that is so sweet oh my gosh im so happy for you!!! that is so amazing that you found someone who gives you the comfort you deserve. your boundaries are so important, too important to ever be ignored or pushed through, and i am so happy for you and your partner :')))

figuring out where you fit is really hard! but its absolutely not a mold. its a spectrum, not a container! every day i find myself on different spots and it got easier to accept when i embraced that, and you have no reason not to be proud of who you are!!!!
