lots of detention and suspensions, but none of them were my fault
my school was just ableist
Curious because this is the Boring Nerd™️ website apparently so I'm interested to see if that started young.
Don't count instances where you didn't get caught, I want to hear about the stuff you did that was stupid and blatant and had repercussions.

The idea that uni protesters are "elitist ivy-league rich kids larping as revolutionaries" on Twitter and Reddit and even here is so fucking funny to me if you actually know anything about the student bodies at these unis. Take it from someone who's going to one of the biggest private unis in the US, 80% of the peers I know are either from the suburbs or an apartment somewhere in America, children of immigrants, or here on a student visa. I've heard about one-percenter students, but I've never met one in person. Like, don't get me wrong, the institution as a whole is still very privileged and white. I've talked with friends and classmates about feeling weird or dissonant being here and coming from such a different background. But in my art program, I see BIPOC, disabled, queer, lower-income students and faculty trying to deconstruct and tear that down and make space every day. So to take a cursory glance at a crowd of student protesters in coalitions that are led by BIPOC & 1st/2nd-gen immigrant students and HQ'd in ethnic housings and student organizations and say, "ah. children of the elite." Get real.
#also idk how to tell you this but even if it were true. wealthy children potentially sacrificing their educational careers to protest is#a good thing actually. idk how to tell you that caring about people from other nations is good#personal#“this war has nothing to do with most students cuz nobody's getting drafted” idk how to explain to you that we should be angry#that our tuitions of 10s of thousands of dollars that we pay every year for an education is being used to fund a genocidal campaign#also the implication that if you go to a uni institution you are automatically privileged by participation no matter your bg#i didn't /want/ to go to this school. i was supposed to go to a school with an art/animation program. but i realized my immigrant#parents have been working their whole lives to get me here. and turning the opportunity down would be a disservice to their sacrifice#this is getting into convos of “what 2nd gen kids owe their parents” which is different for everyone but. yeah#i just get pissed off at seeing people misrepresenting student bodies as “wealthy” and “privileged” and “elite” when it's such a blatant li#i remember a year ago a friend told me they can't fly home to hong kong for winter break because the plane tickets are too expensive#so they have to find temporary housing around the area#last quarter for a film doc class my film partner made a doc on a small group of marxist grad students from india discussing praxis#during a rally a few months ago in response to police presence the coalition invited palestinian students to speak about their experiences#and lead songs and read poems they wrote. these are STUDENTS. are they elitist too?#this is not to disregard my own personal privilege either.#this whole narrative's just to rationalize a lack of empathy to me. seeing a 19yo student get shot by a rubber bullet and your first#reaction is “HAW! HAW! bet richy rich didn't see THAT coming when she put on her terrorist hood!”#newsflash. these big uni campuses are HAUNTED by the violence of past protests and revolutions and police brutality. we know.#why do you think these coalitions have been making reinforced barricades at record speed

Honestly I don't have much of an explanation outside of I like the irony of a Blind Watcher. And. Well. Grian is right there for things to go awry like that. So,
This was created for the 2024 Reverse Big Bang hosted by @mcytblraufest !! Us artists had to create artwork for the writers to claim this time around! >:)
and speaking of writers.. my art garnered the attention of not one, but two writers, who both created fanfics based off of my art!! It's been such a cool experience seeing how differently they've both taken things and they're both VERY WELL DONE!!!!!!!!
" Glass " by @honeylashofficial
Parts make up a whole, but Mumbo hasn't been a part of anything for a very long time. He was okay with that though. The world was more than welcome to continue outside his window, as long as he had his oven and his cable tv all to himself. But every once in a while, the outside world comes inside, and he has to chase it back out with a broomstick. This time, his technique backfires in a way he never could have imagined. Or... Mumbo could count the number of his friends without even raising a hand. Who knew that a 30,000 year-old creature stealing his bed comforter could change that?
" Lost To The End " by Sary_Sary
Six months ago, Mumbo’s closest friend vanished without a trace, leaving nothing but unanswered questions. 6 months later, a strange creature appears in his bedroom, with no inkling of how or why. With no clue how this creature got there or what it wants, Mumbo is thrown into a whirlwind of confusion as he tries to figure out what is going on. Now, Mumbo has to continue trying to figure out where Grian went, all while learning what this creature even is, and how to help him without harming him in the process. To make matters worse, the only person who can help him unravel this mystery is the one person Mumbo swore he would never work with: Scar.
#mcytblraufest2024#mcyt#hermitcraft#mumbo jumbo#goodtimeswithscar#grian#Blind!Watcher AU#ill have more art for each fic Later and i have many of my own personal thoughts from when i was drawing these LOL#but man. this was such a fun experience and its even more fun finally reading what these two goobers cooked up#i Do have the recordings of me drawing this if Anyone is at all interested . its nearly 30 hours of work haha#didnt. didnt think itd take me that long to draw these. but. hey. ill know for next time :')#BUT YEAH THEIR FICS ARE REALLY GOOD SO FAR IM VERY EXCITED TO SEE HOW MUCH MORE THEY DIVERGE AS THEY GO ON#I REALLY REALLY WANT TO DO MORE ART FOR BOTH OF THEM . SO BADLY#< giggling like a little school girl kicking my leggies . i really really want to theyre so FUN GRAAAAHJ#i really want to redraw these to match how honey and sary both took and kind of ran off with them NSDKJVSDNV#its been really cool seeing the similarities and all the differences. i am so very excited to fully read these. does a little dance

seems to me like zac oyama is repping some experiences of asian american schoolkids, defined by such hits like 'regulate your anger,' 'communicate clearer to deliberately misunderstanding assholes,' and 'perpetual sense of unbelonging in both the american part and the asian part of your life.'

I'm going to preface this by saying that I have really complex feelings about this, and much of it is inspired by my personal experiences and a bit of learning about what other trans people experience. If I come across as messy, it is because of these reasons.
There's this unshakable feeling I have that when allies and even other trans people talk about trans people, transition and motivation for transition, and anything related to such, that there's only certain things that x type of trans person can (and should) experience and talk about.
Like, when people talk about FtMs/trans men/transmasc people, a common idea is that we're motivated to transition to game the system, to manipulate people into treating us better because we're now seen as men. A huge reason I never even bought into that idea is because, since transition (especially medical), I have been treated worse than I ever have been. Since transitioning and being on testosterone, I've been catcalled, had people insist I hand my number over, and I have to emphasize that I've never experienced these things until a couple of years ago (to clarify, this was in my real, corporeal life). I honestly can say that, while transition has saved my life and soul, I am treated worse by others than I ever had been pre-transition. However, because the idea of transmascs is that "they were victims of misogyny and they only want to escape it through transition" is popular even among some trans people, I feel like it's almost... taking something away by acknowledging that. Add to this that I'm white and that TPoC have so many experiences that intertwine with race, and that race absolutely goes into how trans people are treated.
I am not saying that my experience is the only valid or true one. I am very aware that I'm probably an outlier. However, I just notice that, time and time again, people hear what they want to hear about transness, and if people have even slightly different points of view from their experiences, it doesn't matter, or worse, those people are duplicitous and conniving.
#trans#transgender#lgbt#lgbtq#ftm#nonbinary#transphobia#transphobia tw#misogyny tw#i just feel like there are very few spaces i feel safe even talking about my experiences with#because it's either ending up in transphobia ('see? you'll NEVER escape!!!') or downplaying or denying my experiences (men don't face that)#i just wish you could talk about the good and the bad without people picking at your carcass like vultures y'know?#because that's how it feels. it feels like i've been laid out on the ground to be *picked* apart and torn#making this after being harassed once again. catcallers get the boot.#it's just amazing to me how pre-transition i was almost... immune to that shit#the worst treatment i faced was being an undiagnosed autistic kid in school (which was ableism and not applicable to the conversation)

reading all about the white calf, love your work, can i just say. gonna put some hibrides appreciation out there because damn. nobody in this story is lucky but she in particular seems to be having a Bad Time
Yeah a lot of things suck pretty bad for her. Unwittingly in a lavender marriage, mutual dislike between her and her dogshit husband, extremely strained relationship to her former best friend/gay quasi-boyfriend/father of her children who alternates between avoiding her and desperate attempts to make her love him again, having to constantly maintain multiple levels of facade to socially protect their throuple and therefore herself, shy and socially isolated, dealing with trauma that she doesn't even begin to recognize as such because 'nothing bad actually happened', pretty sure something is deeply wrong with her, living under a damocles sword of catastrophic social consequences should her children be exposed as bastards, has discovered an unexpected and mostly unwanted pregnancy while on a months long cross-country trek, etc.
She's also someone who prides herself in being rational, put together, stoic against adversity, and not overly emotional and weak, which basically means all of this is getting suppressed and compartmentalized away like crazy.
She HAS managed to fall into a rhythm with it all and her life IS NOT constant misery and agony. But the situation she's in for the duration of the story completely tears her out of this rhythm and makes all these factors very acute (though also opens her up to new opportunities, new and more positive/differently complex relationships, and much bigger things to worry about than her domestic life).
Unrelated drawing of her struggling not to lose her shit in public (in this case trying not to laugh)
#She does have some things going for her. Biggest one being that she is immensely class privileged and doesn't have to experience#hardships that the majority of the population do (like hard labor for basic subsistence. Malnutrition. Constant lice infestations. Etc)#She also had a pretty damn good childhood and a loving and supportive family. Her parents were an example of an arranged#marriage going well and turning into a genuine companionship. Her mother was a pretty good role model and did her#best to prepare her for the inevitable 'leaving her family at 15 to marry an older man she barely knew'. Which did kind of help#though her advice of staying strong and toughing the transition out (because things will get better eventually if you do) backfired a bit.#Dad saw to her getting a very good education and allowed her to pursue interests that wouldn't usually be a part of a girl's schooling#(namely politics. which becomes relevant)#Her paternal uncle absolutely adored her and is the one who got her into poetry and would have books delivered to her even after#she was married and moved away.

really dangerous for me to learn the value of quitting right before starting grad school
#i hate doing difficult things take me out coach!!!!!#i think if it were expensive i'd be more stubborn about sticking it out#but they gave me a really good funding offer so it's very close to free for the first year which is how they get you#they gave me the hellofresh first month free of grad school experiences :( and now my brain is like hey girlypop why NOT quit 🤷#but i'm being brave and sticking it out#personal nonsense

“What the fuck are you wearing, squirt?” Katsuki’s voice isn’t acidic, but rather bewildered as he shifts his glasses up the bridge of his nose. “Y’look like Lisa Frank threw up all over you.”
“Who the hell’s that? Your age is showin’, Pops.”
Watching the two of them bicker is a highlight of my days and something I choose to never get involved in. They usually sort it out themselves, anyways. Better not to get in the middle of a Bakugo household argument, especially father and daughter squabbles.
“Granny would kill me if I let ya walk out of the house lookin’ like that.” He points at Ryuko's skirt and jacket specifically. “Those colors don’t match at all, sweets.”
“She’s literally decades old, Dad. Fashion changes all the time!”
Oh, she said decades. Ouch.
“Listen brat, m’just saying to change into a black jacket or somethin’ so you don’t look like such an eyesore.”
She scoffs. “Fuckin’…fine. Lemme change.”
“Little harsh, Mr. Fashionista,” I joke toward Katsuki. “You gotta let her be bold, even if she does look ridiculous. You can tell her, but if she says no, let her figure it out on her own.”
“Peach, my daughter is not leaving the house lookin’ like a mannequin someone tossed random clothes onto. She’s better than that.” Katsuki puts his book down on the dining table and takes off his glasses. “S’outta love. Last thing we need is her punchin’ someone’s lights out for makin’ fun of her clothes.”
Ryuko comes back into the living room in a new outfit - a pink leather jacket, white top, jean shorts and black combat boots. She puts her hands on her hips as her ponytail sways back and forth.
“Better?”
Katsuki smiles and crosses his arms. “Much better, kiddo. Have fun. Be home—”
“—by 9, I got it.” Ryuko opens the front door and waves over her shoulder. “Love you, byeee!”
I can’t help but laugh. “She’s gonna rule the world one day.”
“Hell yeah she is, she’s a Bakugo, after all.”
#☆.reis selfship lore#☆.katsurei#☆.Ryuko-Bakugo#high school Ryuko is an independent force to be reckoned with#she loves to experiment with fashion and it’s a canon event to go through good and bad fits#I can’t get in her way - nor do I want to#katsuki loves to pick on her though - lovingly

how about you shut the fuck up Mr. Irresponsible
#i forgot to add the context but this is the part of empyrea part 2 where mellori previously got bodied and now she's in a coma#and so the arcanum is trying to figure out how to save her life when ambrose barges in and starts insulting them for no reason#the man who directly puts children at risk: how dare you do unnaproved experiments on MY children? its a school night!!!#okay so like. ambrose if the arcanum is Not Approved to save lives who is. who do they need the permission of. You ?#the ONE TIME ambrose cares about the children under his jurisdiction its just to get to tell other people what to do 💀#this conflict leads to nothing by the way. ambrose fails to make a point. much less a valid one#he appears. he insults everyone and talks back to a grieving mother. he does not elaborate on why he is so upset. then he leaves.#this would have been an interesting conversation if ambrose actually. contributed to anything#this also fits into his personality: focusing on the greater good#viewing living beings as Keys and Saviors first - people second#ambrose will yell at a grieving mother if he thinks it will save the spiral#wizard101#wiz101#w101#text posts
