White Trans Woman: People keep stealing packages off of my porch so I made a zine as a package trap asking why the thief keeps stealing and including an email where the thief can email me anonymously if they want to open a dialogue. Then after I posted it on twitter, people asked if they could buy a copy so I put it up for sale.

People on Twitter being Totally Normal: This has big "can I speak to your manager" energy, actually it's about ethics in zine making, you need to think about how race/class lines tend to fall w stealing, just talk to your neighbors, the fact that you won't talk to your neighbors means that you're probably gentrifying, OP should have included their cashapp in the zine and/or just put money in the package

tag yourself, I'm the person claiming to be anti-racist while simultaneously assuming that the package thief is a POC...

More rambling + image descriptions under the cut.

Image descriptions:

all images are of twitter conversations, and all have had the names blocked out

Image One:

Purple: idk this rubs me the wrong way ! like why do you think people are taking packages in the midst of mass death, unemployment, evictions... im sry your packages were stolen but this has big can i speak to your manager energy and now they are selling this zine ! ugh feels gross to be clear, i am not saying that people cannot be upset about getting packages stolen. also i'm not sure why my tweets are being read as personal attack on the OP? just naming my discomfort + how we should all strive to think about race+class and how our indiv actions fit in

Image two:

this is what happens when you lose sight of zine ethics and the radical socialist traditions from which zines emerge

Image Three:

Blue: i feel like that would depend on where you live and what you're ordering through the mail. I took this as an attempt to start a dialogue with someone who might be taking things this person really needs.

Purple (again): i guess that my first thought was that usually stealing packages is not personal + thinking about who might feel the need to steal, how race/class lines tend to fall w stealing. staring dialogue makes sense but to me this reads as scornful + insensitive, esp bc she's selling the zine

Image four:

Teal: peak passive aggressiveness lol, this seems like way more effort that just talking to your neighbor but idk reminds me of this roommate i had in college that printed off notes and taped them to my door instead of just talking to me lmfao

Lilac: yeah but you roommate actually knew you lmao it wasn't a stranger you can't even contact, projecting much?

Teal: huh?

Purple (different): Your room mate knew who you were. Eve doesn't know who the thief is, which is why contact them by leaving a note where they're likely to find it. Can't you read?

Teal: i'm unsure why she can't just talk to her neighbor, i guess, if someone in my building was stealing my packages, i'd just ask someone about it?

Image five:

it's almost as if the only people who think this is a good idea are w h i t e When white trans women think that they're above critique for being racist and will get their followers to harass POC and call them transmisogynist... You already told on yourself bc you won't just talk to your fucking neighbors in a city that you're probably gentrifying but okay.

Image six:

Pink: I am not assuming the race of the thief, I'm acknowledging that the OP went about packing stealing in a way that my comrades and I do not agree with. Their approach is lacking intention and does not consider mass death/disabling and scarcity. Zine as a gotcha? Give them money???

Purple (different): If the person wants money then they can contact the email op put in the zine. It's a harmless little project, It's not malicious, its ASKING for an anonymous conversation with the thief. Putting money directly in the box would further incentivize them to continue to steal from the op

Pink: She could've made a zine about resources, put her cashapp and asked that person to request $$ if they need some, not encourage more white people (esp. in cities) to engage in things that don't change material conditions of their marginalized neighbors.

Purple: IDK we just don't know enough about the situation to assume the thief is even impoverished or something. There's no use in making a fuss over it.

Rambling

In all seriousness, going through the retweets on the original thread, I found it fascinating how so many people concocted this story in their heads about how the package thief is definitely impoverished/probably POC and thus the OP has privilege over the package thief they created in their heads.

On top of that there was the way that the OP shouldn't be worried about getting their packages stolen (in a way that kind of came off as victim blamey ngl) + this idea of Schrodinger's package; the package is simultaneously something someone needs to steal while being something that the OP can afford to have stolen. (As someone who has my meds delivered to me, I had a raised eyebrow at this.)

Lastly, and IDK if I can phrase this correctly, there was this weird idea I saw floating around that the OP's whiteness canceled out the fact that she is a trans woman. Like, okay, I'm not trying to argue that being white doesn't give you privilege because it does, and being LGBTQA+ doesn't cancel that out, but there was this weird vibe to a lot of the comments that the fact that she was white meant that she didn't have to worry about transphobia. For example, the number of people saying that she should just go talk to her neighbors. I want to call it transphobia, but a lot of it was coming from people who ID'd as trans themselves (them used bc multiple people not meant to degender people). IDK, it was just weird. Like, the flip side of "white trans people still have white privilege" isn't "being white means you never face transphobia" but so many people were treating it like a "get out of transphobia free" card

(Also I'm personally not comfortable with the idea that if someone steals from me it's because (1) they need it more so (2) per socialist (??? if that's what it was supposed to be???) praxis I need to just suck it up, do nothing and give them more money. I mean, the OP made a zine and included her email so that the package thief could contact her if the thief wanted. She didn't put up cameras and then put the pics of the thief all over the internet, she didn't call the cops, she didn't booby-trap the package, she just made a zine with the option for the thief to open a dialogue, and somehow that was still not good enough.)

(And no, the people aren't trolls; I tracked down a couple before posting and they're all either really good at playing the long game at trolling or they're all very sincere.)

a3! as part-timers

I FINALLY FINISHED IT AGAIN. Thank you all for being patient with me because I really liked these headcanons and Tumblr just decided to delete them all <3

WARNING: rookie Chikage Utsuki will be included! (this means spoilers for Act 5 are present throughout).

It's canon that Sakuya works with Misumi, but I have no clue as to what their jobs are. Let's safely assume that Sakuya works at a cafe! His bright disposition and cheerful smile is bound to put a smile on customer's face, but he's a little clumsy when it comes to making drinks so his co-workers always tell him to stick to the cash register. It suits him anyways, being able to talk to different people of different walks of life. He mostly works in the mornings, only after he manages to get Masumi to school on time. He is a customer favourite no doubt, and he brings in a lot of tips for all of the workers to share! Many of the children that come by love him, and especially teachers who are running late to work deem him the sunshine in their life.

Masumi would work at a music shop. Not to be obvious or anything, but music is possibly one of the only constants in his life and he grew a deep bond with it while staying alone at home for most of his life. So when he manages to get a job at shop in inside Veludo Mall, he's ecstatic. Although he gets to spend less time in the dorm (which means less time with the Director), Masumi absolutely loves perusing the endless aisles of music cds, vinyl records, posters, and so much more. He's also very diligent at his job, organizing things perfectly and on time and even helping out customers even though he doesn't really want to. His coworkers grow so fond of him to the point that they let him listen to his own music while doing his job, headphones on while he reorganizes things on the shelves.

I don't really know what part-time job Citron would have, but I know he hangs around the Veludo markets a lot. He's there all the time, helping out the lovely ladies at their food stalls by actively advertising their products of the day and even charming young couples into buying some trinkets at another stall. His charm is very effective, smile so dazzling and eyes so hypnotizing that you can't help but follow him towards a stall where they're selling handmade mochi or fresh produce. This is all volunteering though, Citron doesn't get paid with money. What he does get paid with is lots of hugs and groceries to bring home to the dorm-- much to the delight of Izumi and Omi! Citron's so popular at the markets that he receives a greeting from every single stall while he passes by. And he never leaves empty handed!

Tsuzuru tends to boast about the countless number of part-time jobs he's had. From gas station worker, to waiter, to library work, he has done a lot of things. I don't really think it's something to brag about because if I had that many jobs I would probably d-word. But working at Mankai as a playwright, that's already his dream come true. I don't think he'd want to work anywhere else when he's writing stories and bringing them to life like he has always wanted and it makes me happy to see that he's living out his dream. If anything, if he does work a part-time job, it's probably to get extra money to spend on his younger and older brothers since he's such a family man. And because his stories bring so much attention to Mankai, Sakyo compensates Tsuzuru very generously.

Gaming is Itaru's part-time job. Taruchi is a mysterious persona who is crazy good at video games and has a soothing voice. The kick is that nobody knows what he looks like and Itaru would like to keep it that way. He's a popular streamer and Let's Player so there's no doubt that he is raking in a lot of cash. How he finds time to juggle an office job, Mankai, and streaming is beyond me, but it is absolutely impressive because despite how lazy he seems to be, he is a diligent worker who is very good at entertaining people. Plus, nobody knowing what his face looks like brings in a lot of intrigue and fans. Itaru always baits his fans that just maybe he'll reveal his face to them, but never does. Everyone loves his teasing and Itaru loves messing with people. One of the top streamers on his platform and he's proud of it. The appearance of Banri's NEO also helps a lot with bringing in viewers. (The extra money he makes is donated to the Mankai fund box)

Not gonna lie, but with Chikage being a spy as well as an office worker, I don't think he has enough time to have another job on top of that. As we saw in Act 5, he worked tirelessly on his computer, rarely sleeping. Being a spy is hard work, and now that he realizes that Hisoka may not have betrayed the organization, he now has to work to keep Hisoka's location hidden from enemies. Can you imagine being an office worker tho.... could never be me. Sry Chikage and Itaru lmfao but that sounds painful. Anyways, if Chikage isn't actively working for the organization and isn't posting on his curry blog, maybe he's doing tech support? He's always sitting at his computer so he might as well you know lmfaoo

"I'm too famous to work a part-time job" he says while at the same time applying to work at a bonsai shop. Who are you kidding, Tenma? Also pretty sure the owners don't really care so he gets the job right away since they're in desperate need of help. Tenma acts kind of bratty as it is his first time having a job that isn't acting, but he gets knocked down a few pegs when he has to carry around heavy bags of soil and nutrients for the bonsai trees. Eventually, he comes to love his job, seeing the owners as part of his family as they take great care of him while he works at their shop. Unfortunately, there will still be those fans who will watch him as he works at the bonsai shop, but Tenma uses it to his advantage, saying that if they want to look a little more, they're going to have to buy a bonsai tree. The owners are like ??? wtf tenma ??? but inevitably, it brings in a lot of business;;;

Yuki would definitely work at a boutique as an apprentice!! Working with different types of fabric and body shapes and frills, god, what a dream come true for him! Sure, making costumes for Mankai is one thing, but those are costumes, not actual clothes you would wear outside on the daily. His skill in clothes is amazing and it amazes his mentor who watches on proudly as Yuki sews something gorgeous every single time he comes to help. And Yuki absolutely loves being there too, getting to work on normal every day people who aren't huge hulking men that manage to ruin their measurements every time Yuki makes something for them. Plus, using this experience from his apprenticeship helps him a lot if he so chooses to go to a school for fashion. I'm rooting for you, Yuki!

Working at a manga store, Muku is absolutely in love. He's already in the Library Committee at school so might as well work somewhere book related, right? The boy was lucky to get the job at his favourite manga shop at the mall, and he doesn't even need to wear a uniform! As long as he wears his employee lanyard and name tag, he is all good to go! Being surrounded with his favourite book series and figurines and posters alike is very exciting for Muku, and he works extremely well with customers who need help looking for recommendations or gifts. His enthusiasm charms everyone he talks to and he becomes a customer and workplace favourite after a couple of days. His avid hobby of reading manga is apparent to everyone he comes across, and when he meets another customer who is just as dedicated to manga as he, they have long talks while Muku convinces them to buy more books.

Kazunari would definitely work at an arts store. Cliche, I know, but he wouldn't want to be anywhere else! Michaels would be a good place to start, but knowing how great he is at aesthetics, I think a paint store would do him well too. Both places would mostly have university students as their workers anyways so Kazunari would fit in right away! Popular with customers due to his enthusiasm with art, Kazunari gets a lot of requests for help when choosing certain pigments and wallpapers for bedrooms and large scale art projects. His knowledge with the subject of art is deep and wide, so he is able to answer any questions thrown his way. He is so loved at his job that when he eventually quits to achieve bigger things, they throw a party for him and all promise to visit and watch his next play!

It's canon that Misumi is a freelancer, which means he works any type of odd job and never sticks to one for too long. The job that he has kept the longest is the cafe one where he's with Sakuya. He actually helped Sakuya get this job at the first place, and when they work together, they're a force to be reckoned with! They bring in a lot of tips together and since Misumi is so quick on his feet and speedy with his hands, there's never a line up for drinks. Everything goes out the door just as fast as they had come in and his co-workers love him for it. He is also very popular for his fanged tooth and eye crinkling smile! Many regulars give him triangles as their tips! And if Misumi isn't working at the cafe, he's helping out as a mover because he's quick and strong (like we saw in HaGT), or he is helping out the local mailman. Because the mailman is growing older in age, Misumi takes it upon himself to help him deliver the rest of the mail so that the sweet old man can go home early. Misumi is always seen running around the neighbourhood with the mailbag!

I know this will sound weird, but I think Banri would fare well as a tutor. Knowing that he can just flip through a textbook once and immediately know what to do, I think it would do everyone good if he helped tutor those who struggle. Although I bash Banri a lot (as a joke) I am still able to see that he cares very much for others. He has rarely struggled in his life and clearly doesn't understand the hardships of the other members when they can't seem to do this or that, so he does his best to put himself in their shoes so he knows what he can do to help others who are struggling much the same. So Tsumugi helps him get a tutoring gig, and he hits it off right away. It's impressive really, how he's able to help students understand concepts they once thought they would never be able to get and it makes Banri happy. Banri is someone who wishes to help others-- he even says that he wants to help Mankai grow by bringing back the knowledge he learns at Veludo Arts. And I don't think he'd need the money, so he donates most of it to the Mankai funds.

Is it cliche of me to put Juza in a bakery? You know, sweets, confectionaries. BREAD. God, knowing how Juza grew up with a loving mom who almost always baked sweets for him and Kumon makes me want to cry. I love them so much. Anyways, he'd be a little clumsy in the back kitchen so I think he would just stick to decorating pastries and mini cakes and all that. It's a very curious thing to watch as a customer, a young, mean looking man scrunching his eyebrows as he puts a smiley face on a cupcake. It's cute. There's also another part of me that wants to see him work as an apprentice for shūji, or traditional Japanese calligraphy. Knowing that Juza studied it when he was younger (and that's why his signature is nice), it would definitely be pretty cool for him to do scrolls and stuff. It's a tough job though, considering the art of Japanese calligraphy is an important thing, and every stroke and word you write counts. It's a beautiful art form though, and Juza could make a pretty penny out of commissions.

After learning about journalling from Izumi, Taichi most definitely applied to work at a stationary shop. He's a bit clumsy with it, but he's got the spirit and that's all that matters! Strangely enough, this is one of the rare times where he isn't actively vying for attention, but for some reason he gets it a lot here. It's not like he minds or anything, but please, ladies, quiet down ^^; He is a favourite in the workplace though since he's so energetic and is always eager to help out customers; especially the old grandmas who are looking for gifts to give their grandchildren. The old ladies love him too, and they pamper him a lot much to his bashful enjoyment. And since his coworkers know that he loves journalling so much, they give him a lot of extra stock to bring home so that he can share it with Izumi and Omi! On a less serious note, he'd probably do public dance battles outside with his friends to get a quick buck.

Man... Omi would work at a bakery too. Most likely he would work with Juza because that would make sense, and both of their presences at the bakery shop would attract a lot of attention. Two, hulking dudes working at a bakery shop? Count me in pls. He'd be the one working at the back kitchen, baking everything and such. I would have also liked to put him in a restaurant, but considering that you can't become a sous chef or even a head chef until years later (due to the hierarchy and training), I don't think I want him to do that. He's already studying to become a business major after all so it would be difficult to juggle two separate things to study for. He would also work great as a photographer, but he doesn't do any taxing jobs unless it's for Mankai or very close friends. His friends always pay him too much, but they insist he keeps the money (which he puts into Mankai funds) and as compensation from Sakyo, the older man lets Omi indulge in buying expensive ingredients for that night's dinner.

Why is Sakyo working so hard? I'm getting worried. He works as Mankai's accountant and is part of the Yakuza; those are already two stressful things to work for. He has so much to do and there's always a lot of plate considering he manages a lot of Mankai with Matsukawa and Izumi, and on top of that he always acts as Mankai's Papa, Accountant, and Grumpy Old Man at the End of the Street. And when he isn't doing anything at Mankai, Patriarch Izumida calls him in for a task to do at Ginsenkai or the area they patrol. He also owns a freakin' diner that is under Ginsenkai's care like?? wtf Sakyo. He works so hard, spends tireless days to help keep Mankai afloat and it makes my heart hurty </3 Sakyo was my first crush so I can't help but worry a little and he's my comfort character whenever I'm way too engrossed at looking at Omi's huge bahonkerz so pls... Sakyo take care of urself I'm begging. Also most of the money he earns goes to his family, and the rest is for Mankai's funds.

Tsumugi on the other hand would stay as a tutor since it's canon! Sure, he has a bit of competition now that he's helped Banri enter the tutoring scene, but he's still got his loyal students to take care of. He is a very diligent worker and is very smart so working out problems is nothing too hard for him. He cares for each and every student he has, writing personalized study outlines for them as well as keeping notes on them with what they're struggling on, what they're excelling at, and even takes notes on their study habits and how long their attention lasts for until they need to take a break. Tsumugi makes sure that he is teaching his students properly and cares for them a lot. If not tutoring, he is helping at the local Veludo flower boutique and is very popular there. He helps create a lot of bouquets with deep meanings, but sometimes those bouquets he makes are gifting to him right after, lmao

Ugh as for Tasuku, knowing how good he is at fixing things, he would be great at an electronics store or a mechanics shop. He has a natural talent at fixing things and I can only assume it's because as a child, he really loved tinkering with items that were laying around the house. Plus, knowing that he has an older brother, he probably had a lot of Gundam sets laying around that sparked his interest in building things. You've seen him fix a lot of things right? To his motorcycle, his car, the television, my heart, omfg he can do it all like wtf. He becomes so skilled at fixing cars that he somehow acquires the skill to soup them up too?? When did those big ass rims get there? Where the hell did those damn hydraulics come from? That sort of thing. God he would look so sexy in a classic Ford Mustang </3 On the other hand, I think he would be great at becoming an acting coach. He might give Yuzo a run for his money.

It's canon that Hisoka has a job, but no one really knows what it is I think. I believe he would be a mattress tester! Remember that backstage story with the All Male Lap Pillow Competition or whatever? Hisoka is basically a connoisseur at all things soft and comfortable because he chose Izumi's lap as the most comfortable. He said it was so soft (god I wish I were him) that he could fall asleep and he did!!! Absolutely amazing. With his picky sleeping choices, Hisoka is able to tell whether this or that mattress prototype is good to go or needs some working on. The benefits to this job is that he gets to sleep a lot too because of course, they need to see if the mattress is good enough to sleep on!! Of course he gets paid in money, but since his managers know that he loves marshmallows, they pay him in that too.

Does Homare really need a part-time job? He's basically a renowned writer, it's just that Mankai seems ignorant to the fact. Tsuzuru and Muku has found a whole bunch of his books in the library for goodness sake so of course he's making mad bank! In HaGT he had a business meeting with a publisher/editor so you can't really tell me that he isn't good at his job because if he's having international meetings?? UHM. Of course he's famous literally what is he at Mankai for? The Found Family??? GOD OF COURSE you can stay Homare I love you so much. But seriously, he is super rich, and because he loves Mankai so much, he helps out and chips in to fill the Mankai funds so that they can stay afloat.

And here we have Azuma. I am not going to lie, but I am very protective over Azuma when it comes to his part-time job. Azuma was lonely for a huge chunk of life, unable to fill the void where his family used to sit in his heart. So he picked up skincare, and then he picked up cuddling/escort. His job in the past was full of false security and fake love that would never seal the cracks in his body, but when he found Mankai, something was different. He felt like he belonged somewhere. Especially after Nocturnality, it's obvious that Azuma has finally found his home. So I don't want him to go back to his cuddling/escort job;;; but if he wants to work again, I think being a skincare consultant would be really good! Since his skin is so flawless, many customers would flock to him for advice and the best products to use. His gentle voice and soothing caress as he rubs cream into his customer's skin is hypnotizing, and he shares his skincare routine with anyone who is willing to spend the time, effort, and money into making their skin look pretty like his.

F/O Asks to Rile Yo Up: 1 and 10 + Prussia

oh gosh those r actually very easy 2 answer for my hubs lmfaO thank u for the ask!!!! ❤️❤️❤️ there’s a LOT of tw content here so I’m gonna tag them as well as slap em up here in case i forget one!!

so warning for: tw nazi, tw misogyny, tw drinking, tw suicide mention, tw drinking, tw mental health, tw incest, tw hetalia ???? just general tw for like everything honestly sorry guys :O if i wasn’t on mobile id put this under a readmore just in case so pls be careful!! anyway here’s the Hot Takes!

1. a hot take abt this f/o

ok first of all. the official animation? the Source Material (tm)? ugly. he looks like he’s made of legos. like a minecraft skin. a fool. his english voice is also Horrific. 0/10. honestly 99% of the actual canon content of him i just.... i am Not Looking...... additionally: he definitely used 2 be... Problematic. like. v bad innapropriate jokes. a lot of ‘get in the kitchen’ type shit. he didn’t REALLY mean it but like... he’s several hundred yrs old that’s just. he didn’t know it was hurtful bc he’s absolutely a dumbass. he’s learned a LOT since ‘retiring’ bc he has nothing to do but Internet Around and he was like ohh. oh. so I’M the problematic fave. huh. he has made a great effort 2 unlearn the icky shit!! but sometimes it slips out and he feels AWFUL but hes rly trying i promise....

also: unhealthy coping mechanisms galore. boy drinks. i do Not like when peopl drink around me it scares the shit outta me i am the least helpful person 2 text if ur drunk and need help bc i will nope the fuk out and I’m SRY but i just can’t. deal with that lol. but he Really likes drinkin. refuses to go to therapy bc hes a stubborn dumbass. a LOT of compartmentalizing. he basically thinks as long as he’s not sad ALL the time then he’s fine, even if when he IS sad he is severely depressed and has full on panic attacks and breakdowns like twice a year (which is not tru fyi!! u dont have 2 be constantly sad to seek treatment!!! don’t do what he does he’s a dumbass)

2. what made you think ‘of course i had to like THAT character’?

shkahdkfjks the list is a mile long lol.... first of all. the one associated with nazis. of COURSE it would be that one. and obv in my hc he was and is NOT abt it but like. the amt of nazi content for him is deeply unsettling and i Do Not Like...... also: idk specifically why (tho i have a few ideas) but apparently hetalia is a v problematic show/fandom ?? which i wasn’t aware of ??? i watched it in like. 2008/2012 era-ish idk when exactly but i was DEF uneducated in the whole problematicness area so,,,,, of course i had to like the most problematic character in a problematic show what the hell. why. why am i like this. also he’s like. dead ? question mark ? or at least he’s supposed to be ??? so there’s always the potential he canonically disappears and i have to yank canon out of the creator’s hands and put him back 🙃 also the one that has a virtually unknown japanese voice actor so there’s like NO other content for his voice ugh ,,,,,, AND the actor in the stageplay just. didn’t capture him at ALL unfortunately so. not much good content other than fanart where everyone ships him with his brother 🙃

#tw nazi #tw misogyny #tw alcohol #tw suicide mention #tw mental health #tw incest #tw hetalia #tw #trigger warning #major trigger warning #major tw #pls let me know if i missed any!!! this is definitely an intense post i don’t want anyone to be upset by it!!#gray answers #otp: stay awesome #tw problematic #negative #tw negative

i figure that i should probably make an “official” post about this, but i don’t mind if your character assumes that tleikkzik is male, especially if it’s the first time they’re meeting! i, as a non-passing transgender man writing a transgender character, understand that assumptions are going to be made.

should your character refer to her as male, she will correct them!

#ask to tag /#transphobia /#just to be safe i guess #〈 out of character. 〉#honestly nuprur females don't even have br.east.s in the ' traditional ' sense but i feel like most people would assume that to be the case #and i'm not saying that every character /would/ make that assumption but i'm basically just trying to clear the air #and i don't want anyone to feel guilty or to feel like they need to avoid mentioning her gender altogether just to be safe #like i said -- as a trans man writing a trans character her gender identity is smth that i wanna explore!!#particularly in an alien species that's just smth i'm really interested in #nwjivbner i just got way too attached to this character too quickly lmfao sry i keep making posts abt her #mmmmmm and i'm scared to post this bc god forbid u bring up issues(tm) on tumblr dot com #but w/e i guess if i get any gross shit i'll just delete it

Numbers 1 through 20 :)

1: full name

im gonna be honest as much as i would love to that one’s a pass, but i go by Jov since it’s short for my first name.

2:Age

20! although if you ask me i’m gonna say 19 half the time bc age is a manmade concept and i have the memory of a goldfish.

3: 3 fears

abandonment, never getting better, and the fear that one day i might stop enjoying the hobbies i do now bc i cant physically imagine who i would be if i never playing league of legends.

4: 3 things i love

The way mercy says, “How lucky for you!”, rakan’s positivity in game made it so even when i was having a bad game he would crack a joke and i could have fun nonetheless, and when I’m playing Lucio (my battenet tag is Luciohs) and someone goes “oh man do u have the voice line” and i use the voice line, and then they’re like “but do you have the-” and i use the spray right on top of them. And then later in the game someone is sometimes like man this lucio is a beast and i’m sitting in my chair like :)

5: 4 turn ons

I’ve been struggling to come up with things that i feel comfortable with saying on the internet that aren’t like boring but also don’t out me as a freak lmfao so i guess some things could be: blonde hair, bike shorts, twintails (although i mostly love them in general it’s not strictly a horny thing).

6: 4 turn offs

i just realized these types of things dont have to be horny exclusive so im gonna go with people who think it’s fun to be mean, not showing interest in things other ppl have to say, the fucking pollen, and people who like marvel movies. any of them.

7: my best friend

her name is luiza idk what else to say she has super cool silver hair she’s like a witch but the only spell she knows makes u laugh really hard and it has no cooldown

8: sexual orientation

changes every 15 minutes but as of 12:55 pm on march 18th 2019 i could comfortably say im bi

9: my best first date

i’ve only really been on one it was with Jenna and i think we saw a movie? it was a lot of fun and she was so smart my favorite thing was her encyclopedic knowledge of the black market i could be like “how much could x organ net me” and she’d tell me and i’d be like “:O”

10: how tall am i

i think im 6′1 idk if thats with or without my hair i just know im the tallest one in the house and thus am the dominant one

11: what do i miss

i was jokingly gonna say “wanting to live” but i dont even remember that was like so. LMAO probably poppy seed bagels bc they dont have them in the south its a fucking war crime. also i miss the experience of watching some of my favorite anime i wish i could erase it from my brain just to experience it for the first time again.

12: what time was i born

like 8 am. early bird getting the worm since the womb

13: favorite color

black. i used to say blue bc its a second favorite and all those “black isnt a color” ass mfs would get on me but ion care anymore bro my favorite color is black through and through.

14: do i have a crush

yeah her name is toga himiko she’s the love of my life

but irl no and not for a long time

15: favorite quote

from bojack horseman: “You can’t keep doing this! You can’t keep doing shitty things and then feel bad about yourself like that makes it ok. You need to be better.” and then he said, “You are all the things that’s wrong with you. It’s not the alcohol, it’s not the drugs, or any of the shitty things that happened to you when you were a kid. It’s you. Fuck, man, what else is there to say?”

that always hit me mad hard i love the content in bojack so much and what happened to sarah destroyed me i wish the animation wasn’t so ugly sometimes lmao

16: favorite place

probably in my room, watching umaru or gabriel dropout. thats when im at my happiest. when i can really forget who i am and just laugh.

17: favorite food

brown rice with black beans, with chicken all mixed in. there’s literally nothing better

18: do i use sarcasm

ya lmao i never shut the fuck up

19: what am i listening to right now

my “I Am The One Who Slaps” playlist, Tee Grizzley’s First Day Out bc it goes DUMB hard

20: first thing i notice in a new person

their smile. since greetings are usually accompanied by them, i always notice since i actively smile with teeth when im getting to know people (it’s supposed to make them like u more lmao it really works) and i always notice if they smile back or if it’s tight lipped usually indicating they’re more reserved or something. idk thats not an assumption u can make entirely off that one thing but it’s usually accompanied by other things like not making as much eye contact and stuff.

sry this was so long but i had a lot of fun thank u very much :)
