That feel when it's Pride day, but your friends decided to conform to cisheteronormativity by flaking day of, so now you're stuck with no one to go with but you spent $100 on clothes and still want to wear them.
yk im always amazed that we insist on sticking to the arbitrary 'summer autumn winter spring' bullshit when like. they dont even line up that well with the weather patterns we get here? and we already have a perfect six season cycle that was developed after thousands of years of people living off the land?? like yeah okay i know why we use the generic four seasons instead of the indigenous australian's seasons (colonisation baybee) but also like. wh. why
okay but a thing i think about every time we have one of those few day periods where the weather is not fit for even a dog being outside is how the hell are homeless people surviving this. like i said in a previous post it's currently -40 degrees with the windchill and i honestly cannot imagine how someone who does not have a place to go inside and spend the night is supposed to not freeze to death. it makes me upset every time the temperature drops like this, i cannot imagine how many homeless people will be frozen to death in the next 24 hours if they somehow haven't already. the fact that there are hundreds of empty houses sitting there empty with totally functional heating while people are DYING from the cold on a street corner makes me SO FUCKING ANGRY while at the same time my heart is breaking in pieces for them. rest in peace to every poor person who will not make it through the weekend. i am so sorry.
strong day today. went to a thrift store and found a 100% cashmere sweater in perfect condition that probably retailed for $140 that the lady sold to me for a mere $5. took a nice and cozy nap later. what more could you ask?
First lookbook of the 1930s, circa 1931, is of Consuelo Huntington Morales, this decade’s heir. The Great Depression neared its peak as Consuelo is navigating her new role as a married woman and adoptive parent to her nephew, Héctor. She and her husband Andrés, who found themselves in a marriage of convenience, are living off the land in a cabin where Consuelo enjoys gardening, fishing, and searching for collectibles. She likes to wear pants and androgynous styles, especially at home or working in the yard. Her traits are Loves the Outdoors, Self-Assured, and Noncommittal.
[Image description: a detailed outfit reference for Kirika from my mha/dp crossover fanfiction locked out, with five different styles. The styles are labelled "warm weather outfit", "punk outfit", "cold weather outfit", "work uniform" and "formal attire". There is also a drawing of two golden rings on a chain with the annotation of "dead parents' wedding rings on a necklace wears constantly under clothes". There is also a small bio in the bottom right corner.
Watanabe Kirika / 23 / female symbol / june 3rd / 183cm/6 feet / aro ace

refuses to use bags and will complain when she needs to
steals @ every opportunity mostly for fun but mostly due to habit
fluent in many languages due to landing in many places
experiments with hairstyles often
End image description.]
i finally finished this. i'd been meaning to have this done since i first posted locked out, but nah i had to redo it a bunch of times and i was late getting to it in the first place. but please know that kirika has a lot of different hairstyles and the only constant is her fringe and how she doesn't let her left side of her hair free. she'd likely shave that side if her hair didn't take forever to grow (she's had like two proper haircuts her whole life outside of trims).
some other facts about kirika's style that i think is important but i didn't manage to showcase it here nor write it in the bio:
her parents rings usually end up being tucked between her boobs, not for a sexy reason mostly just to keep them secure and out of the way
she would have a tattoo (previously pictured) if she wasn't worried she'd get sick of looking at the same image constantly. if she sees something too much she'll get annoyed by it. temporary tattooes are her best friend.
almost always will choose a high waisted skirt or trousers over the low waisted option. she has wide hips and high waisted things tend to feel more comfortable to her
when she's in a universe that doesn't normally have bright hair colours she uses temporary hairdye that usually is black or brunette. she's rather adept at applying it quickly
wears a lot of jewelry and mostly rings. a fidget she'll often rearrange the rings on her fingers
has a variety of different surnames as aliases depending on where she lives at the time though watanabe is her birth name
cw for flashing lights tw for (slight?) ab*se mentions in the lyrics!
ok so ever since i saw this post (specifically the last pic) i could not stop thinking about how the first glass beach album is kind of cocole coded which led to me thinking about it for like almost a week which led me to start progress on this custom level of glass beach by. glass beach which. is far. VERY far from finished (7 FUCKING MINUTES ARE YOU KIDDING ME) but i wanted to share what i have of it it anyways bcuz. i need ppl to see my vision.
this post got longer than i thought it would so. More ramblings under the cut
ik the song is supposed to be about a girl’s parents being shitty and the guy wanting his lover to run away from them and stuff, but i have a plot in mind about how instead of parents its nicoles smoking addiction which keeps on hurting her and how cole is tired of it. i think its nice to explore their journey of cutting away from their addiction (even though its mostly talked about in the game… idk i still think its interesting) and how everyone else in the hospital helps them idk. also including some pining because that's always wonderful
theres also this little mini comic i drew w the first couple of lyrics of classic j dies and goes to hell part 1, theres not really a story its just random moments but i still think its decently alright? i am. not a storyteller. IDK
but anyways i just want people to get that they are so. glass beach coded and i could NOT get them off of my mind for the life of me. i hope i can muster up the motivation to finish the level because i really really want to and i think itd be cool idk RAMBLE OVER
After cutting my hair short & my face changing to look less like my parents’ with age ... I can finally wear a plaid flannel shirt and not be met with the horror of seeing the spitting image of my mom (who constantly wears flannel shirts) staring back at me from every mirror ...
