The main feature apps like this offer are QOL improvements like different layouts, fonts, reading statistics and timers, and the aforementioned download features that are already a part of Ao3.

And if you want to use an app for those features -- honestly, I don't see why not? But be aware that Ao3 supports user-created skins that can look like literally anything you want (and although you do have to know enough CSS to make a theme yourself, lots of fans out there make AO3 skins just for fun -- you just gotta talk to one of them to ask how to make the changes you'd prefer and most likely they're happy to help out) and there are userscripts that act as site extensions that provide all those features and more (with, again, people actively developing them that you can ask help from to write your own if you don't like any of the ones available)

If you don't want the hassle of finding this stuff out or talking to people to ask for these features, you do you I guess. But don't ever pay money for one of these apps, no matter what it does. If it's showing you adds, if it's asking you to buy it, DO NOT, they're asking you to pay for features other fans have already provided for free through other methods.

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS

WHO IS USING THIS

AN APP??? THEY HAVE A FUNCTIONING WEBSITE

[macgyvermedical]

As a trans guy I'm really worried about maintaining access to T. I live in a safe state but I know how quickly things can change in a matter of months to years, so.. I'm worried. That being said, what do you know of DIY HRT? I know that cis guys sometimes use T and I doubt they always go through their doctor, so I'm curious how that works.

I don't want to have to do this, but I figured I should at least know the gist of it should I ever need to or if someone I know is in the same situation.

P.S thank you for being here for everyone who has questions. It means a lot 🩵

As a fellow trans guy, I feel you. Note that while the following looks like advice, it is for educational purposes only, and you are using this information at your own risk.

The following is listed from least to most illegal:

Probably your absolute best bet (especially if you pass) is to get a doctor that can prescribe T for male hypogonadism (low T). Now, this is probably not going to be an in-person doctor for two reasons. One is that they will probably do a testicular exam, which will give things away. Second, most electronic medical records link up these days, so any doctor treating you will be able to pull your medical records and find out you're trans.

One possible way around this is telehealth, which has boomed since the pandemic. Try googling "male hypogonadism telehealth" to check around for options. This will probably need to be paid out of pocket under a fake name if you want to ensure your account isn't linked. Make sure you know the symptoms of male hypogonadism, or come up with a story about how you're already diagnosed because you had mumps as a kid or something. Note that if they ask for a blood test, which they probably will, and you're not already out of T, skip your dose and take the test a few days later, so you test low. The nice thing about this is it gets you a diagnosis that can only be gotten if you're AMAB, so it lends credibility to your situation.

The next option is to stockpile some T while you still have access to it. Because T is controlled, the most T you can have in your possession is a 6-month prescription (otherwise you risk a 4th degree felony). However, if the prescription is written for 1-ml vials and your dose is 0.5ml/week and the prescription says to "discard vial after 1 dose" you can technically have up to a year (because in theory, you're throwing away 0.5ml of T each time you inject- but you could also, in theory, keep it and use it as long as you were careful to clean the top with alcohol before you puncture it). Keep in mind that even if you happen to get more T than a year's worth, it's only good for about 3 years before it starts losing potency or may become contaminated.

The (far) next option is to find someone in the bodybuilding community and start asking around. Making it clear that you know how to do injections will get you to people who have T that they don't want to self-inject but may trade you (or at least sell to you) for doing their injections. This is your best bet for finding illegal T. Note that T is a (pretty dang) controlled substance. You and everyone involved in getting T to you is at significant legal risk (that 4th degree felony again).

Unfortunately even looking in the dark recesses of reddit I was not able to find a safe "recipe" for testosterone. Most of what is suggested is to buy T powder from overseas and compound it yourself into a cream. This is very very illegal and could be very dangerous if you don't do it correctly. I'm not going to talk about it here because I don't understand it enough. Also it's really freaking illegal.

Note: If you haven't yet had a hysterectomy, I suggest you do everything in your power to keep a functioning ovary. That way if you do lose access to T, you won't lose bone density. If you have already gotten your ovaries removed, talk to a doctor about low-dose hormones to maintain bone density.

Triangle

<< Gideon

A few days after the Gideon incident you were hired by Stan to work at the shake. Since you did a painting of a kelpy. That Mable then put it up for sale.

Surpassingly there was a biding war on  who got to buy it. The customer even started to fight each other at one point.

When Stan saw this happen pluss the fact that one painting was sold at $453. He immediately asked if you wanted to make more paintings like that.

You said yes but only if you got a fifty of the money you get from the sold artwork. Stan was skeptical at first until he was that the painting could be sold at a high price. Plus he would still get a few hundred from just half the profit.

So he agreed to terms and conditions of the agreement. Currently you were chilling in the empty gift shop as you wrote down what you were going to paint.

— — — — — — — — time skip — — — — — — —

You watched as Mable and Wendy were having one of there random dance parties for no reason. As well as Dipper of to the side pretending to write down on a clipboard. As he looked at Wendy this the oh so familiar crushing look he gave Wendy.

"Oh no I know that look." You whispered to your self as you saw the look on dipper.

As Mable told Wendy the story of the lambí dance. You then see how embarrassed Dipper looked.

The clock on the wall then chimes telling that it was now 6pm. "Hey look at that, quitting time." Wendy said as he took of her name tag and started to leave the gift shop.

"Hey wait what if I— I mean we come with you?" Dipper asked as he tried to his the fact that he wanted to hang out with Wendy.

"Oh I don't know my friend are pretty intense." Wendy told us as she stoped in her tracks. "How old did you say the three of you were?"

" W-we're thirteen so technically a teen and y/n is 16" Dipper said rather quickly and nervously.

"Ok I like your moxie kid. Just let me get my stuff." Wendy told us as she then went. In to the employees area to get her things.

Dipper then turned around and looked at us. "Since when we're you two thirteen?" You questioned Dippers with a raised eyebrow.

Dipper then lied about being able to hang out with the cool kids. Mable then started to chant about Dipper having a crush an Wendy.Mable then ran up stairs saying something about getting ready. But before Dipper could walk off. You got up and stoped him.

"Dipper as you're now honorary big sister I have to talk to you about this." You told him as you healed both this shoulders.

"What what are you talking about?" Dipper said as he tried to act like he didn't have a crush on Wendy.

"Dip don't lie to me I know that you have a crush an Wendy. And I just want to tell you that it's not going to work. She's five years older than you. Plus I've been in your shoes before. Trust me when I tell you this." You told Dipper as you see the look in his eyes as the hope fades.

"Hey I know that me telling you this is a let down but I'm just telling you the truth.But hey you can still hang out with her and whatever. I'm just telling you what is most likely to happen.  So just do your own thing."

"Ok I see your point and we'll yeah I can understand your reasoning thanks sis"Dipper told you as he gave you a hug.

The three of you then got out the shake to meet up with Wendy's friends. While they were doing some type of weird game.

"Hey guy's these are my friends from work." Wendy told them as we introduce ourselves. Mable then showed a guy she was chewing and Dipper tried to act cool. But was only meet by silence.

"Hi I'm Y/n." You introduced your self to them. The guy with a stitched heart then made a comment about babysitting.

"Guys this is. Leon and Nate." The two then punched each other.

"Tambry" the girl with diyed hair only said a small hey as she didn't look up from her phone.

" Thompson, that once ate a run over waffle for fifty cents." She pointed guy in a mustered yellow collar shirt. As he told her to to tell us about the small bit of information.

" And Robbie you can figure him out" a guy that looks like your average my space emo boy that tries to act like he has no feelings.

"Yeah I'm the guy that spray painted the water tower." He told us as he tried to act cool.

"Oh you mean the big muffin?" You and Dipper said at the same time. " Jinx Dip you owe me five bucks." You called out.

"Hey No far that was out of nowhere." Dipper told you as he lightly punched your side.

"Um it's a giant explosion not a muffin!" Robbie called out mad as we all turned to look at the muffin.

"Huh? Oh forgot you were here for a second emo." You said as you looked at the poorly made ( explosion) on the water tower. As Nate and Leon laughed at the muffin looking explosion.

"Haha it's really good for a starter ." You said as you then got out a sketch book and finished up one of your latest sketches.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Robbie yelled out defensive.

"Wow there I'm just saying that a good looking explosion for now even if it looks like a muffin." You then show him your sketchbook with a few small sketches of explosions.

"If you want some tips you can give it more of a mushroom shape on the top clouds. You can also switch up the colors so that way you can give it more of a look of a exposing."

Robbie only grumbled as the others complimenting your sketches. "Yeah whatever." Robbie said sarcastically as he just looked away."Well either way let's get going I have plans for tonight." Wendy said as they all get into the van.

"Y'all go ahead without me. I want to go look for more inspiration for my art." You told Wendy as the twins got into the van.

"Ok then y/n see you tomorrow." Mable yelled from inside the van. Then Thompson then drove off.

— — — — — — — Time skip — — — — — — — —

After a bit of wondering in the woods you see many weird creatures. From seeing Ness and there baby in the lake. To going inside a cave and seeing some flaying eye bats.

You eventually got tied and fell asleep on a hill.You slowly then see that you were in a cave like place with water around the bottom that looked like galaxies.  Around the area were floating stars that seem to be made out of crystals.

As you wondered around in the cave you then see that all the stars that were floating around were actually memories each different color for different things.

As you keep walking around the cave you then in an area of yellow childhood memory stars. "Hmm, if this is my mind then I can go back to when I was little and see what the other Glyphs combinations are."

You said out loud as you then walked around looking in other areas. Watching were you stepped and not stepping into the galaxy water puddles. Going into a different area you then see some light brown stars and see memories with a smaller version of you in the crystal stars.

As you kept grabbing the stars and seeing throw them and then letting go back into the sky. Continuing to look throw them you then notice something floating of in the distance only to then see a floating yellow triangle?

The triangle didn't notice you as it then went to some stars as it quickly went throw a few then went to another areas.

"Hey! why are you looking for something! Plus who are you? What are you doing in my mind?"  You questioned the triangle.

The triangle only stared at you in surprise as you both stare at each other for a bit. So much that you we're able to see every detail it had.

From the one eye, top hat, and bow tie. To the small libs and brick pattern it had.The triangle then moved its hand from side to side watching you as your eyes fallowed this hand.

" So you can really see me. Huh?" The triangle said as it then put its hand up to its body in a thinking position.

"If I couldn't I wouldn't be talking to you." You told the triangle as you walked past him as you put the stars he was looking throw back into there's areas were they were floating.

"What are you even even doing in my mind while I'm sleeping?" You questioned the triangle as you then continued to look.

"Well don't you just get to the point. Names Bill Cipher for your information. Your not supposed to be in gravity falls for what I know."  The triangle now know as Bill said and he then floated around you.

“I don't live here but still." You said as you continued to look throw stars.

Bill only floats around the place as he then takes a star out your hands. "what I mean is most meatbags aren't able to get to there mind space. For some reason you can. It's unusual?"

“ It's not really something someone that just came into my mind gets to know?" You say as you put your hands on your hips realizing that the triangle looks the same from the one in the journal.

"That's what you think. But I don't work your your logic. So I will do what I want." The triangle says as he continued to float around quickly.

You tried to keep up with Bill but he was to fast. After a bit you lose track of him as he floated of in the cave. As you keep looking for the triangle you then see that everything was started to fade.

You then wake up and see that you were in the hill with your sketchbook next to you. Seeing the sunset was going down and it was getting dark fast. You started to get up and grabbing your stuff you went back to the cabin for the night.

The unsettling felling of being watched was still there, but the moment you went inside the cabin it stopped. 

"Huh? Must be the magical property's of the cabin?" You mumbled as you went to shower and get changed for the night.

bridge builders of the left here, I've trolled liberalsarecool plenty as well, but I also want to open the gates for people to realize that liberalism and neoliberalism, neo-neoliberalism, it's not going to *liberate* us from the deathgrip of the billionaire ruling class

My parents were loyal democrats and the "liberal" healthcare system steamrolled their lives and extinguished them, through silly errors, systemic mistakes, midieval practices, and outright fascist greed dictating health policy so that patients lose their lives to protect patents and profit for billionaires.

The Nazis rounded up all the cute cuddly "liberals" and sent them to Auschwitz along with the rest, lest we forget. Being a liberal is not enough anymore, we have to realize war is being waged on us here in the working class. Fascist trumpty dumpty won't fall if we just stage a sit-in. I now identify more as a leftist because I can't trust CNN/MSNBC to speak for me anymore.

PSA: Every cancer death is a homicide and cannabis extract ingested orally does solve/cure/eliminate cancer (ie dropped into a veggie capsule and taken immediately since it tends to eat through a capsule wall in 10 minutes or so, so like you can't pre-dose it and store the caps), but we've been supressing this info since at least the 1990s to protect billionaires who own oncology patents. Fuck dem patients though right?! [sarcasm alert] Billionaires need more billions so don't listen or learn here, keep dying of cancer to protect those precious widdle billionaires

hiii!!!

Can I request Hobbie w/ a gyaru gf, I can imagine it working with gyaru starting off as a rebellion against japan's beuty/ social standard <3

落ち着く？(calm down?)

(hobie x gyaru!gf)

warning: really bad translations!! i don’t speak japanese #sorry

a/n: technically, no gender is named in this. but it is DEFINITELY a fem fic. anyway: be who you want because at the end of the day, you're opinion is the only one that truly matters. #reqsopen #messageme #sorry this took so long my dad had surgery and i was stuck taking care of him but he's all good

ill provide translations dw

the stares weren’t unfamiliar, in fact, you embraced it. it came with having some semblance of a personality that these people clearly feared admired. you just wish yours, and hobie’s, appearance alike weren’t so abstract to the general public.

it's as if you were committing a war crime by having a tan. in japan, any difference from the norm is seen as an insult to those who surround you. truthfully though, that was why you began dressing gyaru in the first place.

conforming had never been your thing, especially when it came to how you dressed. you were always one to disobey even when you got a nagging grandmother in your ear.

"おじさんたちの前に姿をさらすことになる、" (cover up, you're exposing yourself to your uncles.)

a common phrase that plagues the minds of all young teens in japan. the idea that you need to cover up, instead of your uncles needing not to stare. she means well truly but it's just a showcase of how plagued the mind is of those who grew up and reside in japan.

"looking lovely as always my dear," his thick english accent coats your mind. a hand wraps around your shoulder.

hobie. at least you had one person that you could voice your woes to.

"hungry?" he asks as he stretches slightly. the two of you met in the heart of kawaramachi. a charming street that over looks a dazzling river. although you couldn't bring yourself to care in this moment.

you turn to look up at him, covering in diy piercings and tattered clothes that, even in london, are seen as trashy. although, he didn't seem nearly as bothered by the situation at hand. how people now adays sneer and turn away from any expression of a sense of self.

"いいえ, ぼくのおばあちゃん practically shoved fruit down my throat this morning," you say with a slightly exasperated tone. (no, my grandma practically shoved fruit down my throat this morning)

"wha's up, luv?" he say in a cool tone, but lying underneath holds a bit of concern for your, clearly annoyed, timbre.

"don't you think this is a bit bullshit?" you say looking forward as you walk side by side down the streets of kyoto. "like even a little," you say referencing the people who can' t seem to take their eyes off the two of you. like you're some zoo animal.

"wha? them people? don' pay attention to them. they're bloody barmy." he says, you're suprised he's missing the point.

you grumble at his words. "why do i have to be the one to ignore it. why can't they just not stare in the first place. we've got a myriad of tourist attractions and yet my makeup and clothes are the only things they can keep their fucking eyes on."

ordinarily, you'd wait to voice your opinions until you reach a more secluded area. especially since foul language is a more frowned upon subject. but today you felt like pointing out the issues with society. with the standards for women.

thin, fair skin, straight hair, minimal makeup.

pray tell you experiment with makeup. maybe wear a short skirt and vibrant colors. god forbid you wear anything revealing in public. may as well give your obaasan a heart attack the second you put any jewelry with color on yourself. (a commonly used name for grandmother, in japanese)

hobie hums and looks down at you. "you're really chuffed 'bout this aren't you dove?"

"you aren't?"

"im formulatin'" responds non chalantly. you take a deep breath. you knew you couldn't change the who world over night but if one person wouldn't gawk at you as you walked down the street that would be mighty nice. you lean into his side. "how 'bout we think how daft this is over a cuppa,"

you nod softly, almost undetectable to those who aren't paying attention to your every move. "do you get bothered by the stares?"

hobie looks up. considering his height, he practically towers over you and the rest of japan. his eyes scan the crowd, catching all the eyes that fall over him and you. he sighs.

"no' anymore," he says

"anymore?" you half expected hobie to just say no. to have always been as unbothered as he is now. to never have needed to learn the skill of ignoring the whispers and distraught stares that befall him.

he nods silently and leads you into a small restaurant. it smells of herbs and soup. a mix between sweet and salty. the scent of a tea immediately calms your nervous system. hobie slots the two of you into a corner.

"luv, i wasn't always li' this,"

"well i know, i just, you always seems so confident. like nothing gets on your nerves besides capitalism and those white dogs that are always barking." you say it semi sincerely but you smile when your joke earns a chuckle from hobie.

"you are a sight," he says glancing over you. it's a comforting feeling as he takes in your unique appearance. the tan you sport, even though it's nearing winter, and the colors too. almost completely neon, sans the animal print that you don on your boots.

he scans over your face. your eccentric makeup, all perfectly practiced and executed on your face. he grins.

"you 'on't need anybody else to tell you tha'," he says. "sure they might stare, but their opinion is rubbish."

you smile. it's rare you get hobie in such a state where he truly speaks from his heart. but you can't get enough. it's just you and hobie. at the end of the day, that's all you truly need.

[somecunttookmyurl]

your posts today are how i found out if i ever went to japan i wouldn't be able to take my medication even with a letter (adderall)

the controlled substances list for japan is hysterical and bizarre and only gets funnier the longer you look at it

-there are only FOUR substances on planet earth that are straight up prohibited like cannot bring them in legally even with the correct paperwork

-they are heroin, methamphetamine, amphetamine (adderall).... and cannabis

-there are 3 laws that collectively deal with substances. the narcotics & psychotropics law, the stimulants & stimulants raw materials law.... and the cannabis law

-the latter 2 were clearly drafted later because the only things defined as "stimulants" are methamphetamine, amphetamine, and lisdexamphetamine. that's not a stimulants law that's an amphetamine law

-this means cocaine and MDMA are classed as narcotics not stimulants

-this means that technically, hypothetically, you could import cocaine easier than adderall

-THC is not defined as a cannabis product

-You can bring in THC as long as it is not derived from cannabis. Unsure how you prove that

-cannabidiol (CBD) is not on there at all

-so you can bring in CBD and THC but not cannabis

-flatpack cannabis. some assembly required.

-the result of this list is that cannabis is more illegal than cocaine, morphine, barbituates, MDMA, LSD, GHB, and fentanyl

-adderall is also more illegal than any of those

-dexamfetamine, which is the same drug as lisdexamfetamine but shorter acting (the body converts lisdexamfetamine into dexamfetamine that's why it's slower release) is not on the list at all

-on a legal technicality i will not be arguing at the border i could bring in dexamfetamine without any paperwork at all because they forgot it existed

-levoamphetamine also is not on the list

-lisdexamfetamine is the only thing labelled as a "stimulants raw material" the two actual stimulants raw materials (ie, component parts of amphetamine) are not on the list. lisdexamfetamine is not a component part of adderall, it's an altered version of a component part.

-technically you can make DIY adderall on the other side of the gate

-it would still be easier to get in with cocaine

hey there doll !!! 🎀💖

I have a question for you as a girl i truly struggle to keep up with my looks. I surely dress to impress when i go to work or when I go outside for an important meeting but on my ordinary stay at home days I don't really put any energy on how i look so I end up wearing pyjamas and messy bun , no make up... a total mess.

I tend to admire girls who has this motivation to get up everyday regardless of how ordinary or important that day is and do their hair and make up and nails dress up cute and go on about their days. I aspire to have that same mindset and energy.

Help a girl out I want to doll up and feel cute and do girly things too but I am lazy and unmotivated 🥺

How to Doll Up 101!!

(all photos above are not mine) “Life is a party, dress like it.” - Audrey Hepburn

Discipline! Not every girl has the motivation to get up and do their beauty routine. But, they get up anyways because it makes them feel good. It makes them feel put together and happy. It’s all about having discipline. Some days you will have motivation, other days you won’t. So, that’s why you have to get up anyways and start your routine. People always show them with all this motivation to get up. In reality, they don’t always have this motivation. They want to stay in bed all day and rot. On the other hand, if you rot all day you’ll get no where. So unless you want to get no where in life, get up. It only takes one second to get up. After you get up, you’ll realize it’s not all that bad. It’s really just all in your head. You’re this way because you let yourself. You make up excuses that only make sense to yourself. Other people who take action, won’t understand all these excuses. Maybe in the past they would understand. However, right now it’s all just nonsense. Four words, get up and start.

Slowly start incorporating new things into your routine!! It takes time to get into routine, so be patient. If you rush into it too soon, you’ll lose motivation quickly. So, take your time. As for being patient, add new things little by little. Maybe start by buying cute matching jammie sets? Maybe start by buying new satin sheets? Maybe you start by washing your sheets once a week? Maybe start by cleaning your room. There are so many things to start off with. Plus, you don’t even need to spend money to start. It’s super simple to add tasks into your routine.

Pamper yourself the night before! Maybe you wanna put heatless curling rods in, while you sleep? Maybe you braid your hair before bed instead? Maybe you pick out your outfit before hand? Maybe you shave your face, so tomorrow your makeup goes on smoothly? Maybe you take a long shower or have a bubble bath? The list could go on and on. Whatever works for you, is what’s best. Overall, take care of yourself with lots of love. Pampering yourself the night before, can help you the next morning. You will have less to worry about the next morning. Not only that, but less to do!

4. Invest in your looks!! Ofc, looking dolled up doesn’t come for free. You have to be willing to spend money on dolly stuff. “Dolly stuff” could be cute pajama sets, makeup, nail appointments, perfume, jewelry, and ofc lip gloss! Those are just a few examples though. You could invest in your looks MANY other ways. As always, whatever works best for you is what’s best. Moving on, make sure you always keep a budget. Why? Well, as much as you need to invest in your looks. You can always do diy beauty care. For example, doing your own nails, making diy lip gloss, diy face masks, diy body scrubs, etc. Super simple, self care you can make with what you already have. So, yes you should spend money investing in your looks. However, make sure you have a set budget and be wise with your money. Why? Well, because technically you can always do your beauty care at home.

5. Dressing to impress! Dressing to impress…..yourself. Honestly, dressing to make yourself feel good is a MUST. When getting dolled up. It’s rare that you see Barbie or the Bratz dresssing to impress someone. They dress to feel cute and good in their skin. So, you should do the same! If you wanna learn how to doll up, you have to up to the ogs. Aka, the Bratz and Barbie. This being said, stop thinking about others and start thinking about yourself. Also, have fun with dressing up. Pretend you’re a movie character, that always has the cutest clothes for every occasion. For work, you could dress up like a business woman. For home, you could dress up like a rich housewife. Just have fun with how you dress. Make your life seem like a runway show. Cause, who’s really gonna stop you. Well, except you.

Intro post!!! (finally)

Heyyy I’m just a silly guy who likes silly things :P welcome to my blog!

I am a minor, anyone can interact but I’ll block creeps etc. There’s no dni I’ll just block people

He/him pronouns! I usually go by elliott online so feel free to call me that (I swear I used that name before I liked elliott smith lmao)

This is mostly an mcr blog, but I occasionally post other things!!

Music I enjoy:

☆ my chemical romance (clearly)

☆ elliott smith

☆ the libertines (I’m a newer fan but I love them so much)

☆ radiohead

☆ dazey and the scouts

☆ rush

☆ all of frank iero’s projects ever

☆ especially pencey prep dude I love them so much

☆ pierce the veil

☆ pink floyd

☆ I do choir so the occasional brahms requiem or mozart piece mention loll

*i probably won’t post much about non-mcr music besides the occasional fanart every 3 years, I feel bad when ppl follow me and I just post mcr so that’s your warning lmao

Other topics/interests:

✧ unholyverse (technically mcr but I tend to disassociate the characters from the actual people I guess?? I just enjoy it as a separate work of fiction)

✧ velvet goldmine (1998) (I just watched it and I’m never recovering)

✧ buffy the vampire slayer!! Currently on like s3

✧ hooky (webcomic)

✧ general diy and clothing design (I sew and modify most of my clothes)

✧ a ton of susan sontag’s writing. She’s really cool

I am autistic, queer, trans and disabled (ocd, hypermobility, chronic pain + joint problems) and might talk about that sometimes :P also probably adhd but I dunno

I love receiving asks!! I’m kind of awkward and often sound overly formal when I don’t mean to, but I promise I enjoy talking lol. I <3 my mutuals!!

As far as tags go, I try to have a couple consistent tags to organize things but mostly it’s a complete mess and I have no order. The only really consistent one is “my art”

K now it’s time for as many blinkies as I could add 🫡

I don’t own any of these btw

i feel like theres something specifically glasses swagful about taylor adding them into her mask lenses via prescription swim goggles even though its technically making them Not Glasses at that point. like something about the specific attention to detail about how someone with glasses could DIY a supervillain sorry hero mask feels Glasses Swagful to me because it's both considerate of the practicalities/reality of a cool character needing to use glasses and intentional in integrating the glasses in a thoughtful and interesting way instead of just tacking them on top or going 'uhh she crams them ebneath the mask' as an afterthought or something
