As someone who has lived in a small town their entire life, walkable cities are the coolest thing ever to me. You guys can just. Walk around? Without risking being hit by a car? Epic, 10/10. Not to mention public transport. We don’t even have taxis but you guys can just go on trains that are underground! Or ride a trolly while you look out the window daydreaming instead of being angry that 75% of people on the road should have lost their license 15 years ago when they hit 70.

#i mean #aside from that and options for foreign food that isnt mexican everything else kind of sucks #but i wanna live in a walkable town/city so bad i love them #i would be in so much better shape if i lived in a walkable city #as is my mother still doesnt let me walk to the gas station 1/2 mile away #because ‘its on a main road’ evern though very few people even drive down it #we also do not have biking lanes so that would be difficult even if i wasnt afraid of riding a bike #(my balance is not good and i am short and small and scared of running into a car)#although you would think she would be all for me walking or riding bikes #considering how scared she is I’ll have a relapse in my epilepsy and have a seizure while driving #she also does not let me drive out of said small town for this reason #which. im a legal adult #but she still scares me so…

I love that this fandom doesn't understand Baxter's character, I adore how they patronize him,a whole ass adult, for facing the consequences of his actions.

I love how people make him feel like a sad little baby when he leaves mc as if that's not something he made extremely clear. I love how people treat this 19 year old as if he's not old enough to understand the consequences of his actions. I love how Baxter is aware of his flaw's but feels like he can't break them because people only see him as a tool and this fandom reinforces that.

I love how people will get mad at Nico for doing the cardinal crime of being 6 years old but will baby a 24 year old Baxter. I love how people make him this charismatic rich guy when it's shown that he's a hot mess that doesn't know what he wants. I love that Baxter's whole character arc is about his self sabotaging tendencies and how everyone ignores that. I love that people fell in love with the mask he had for most of the dlc.

I love that this fandom lacks reading comprehension skills and understanding of nuance characters, great job everyone for not understanding how writing works :)

#our life #misty talks our life #olba #our life beginnings & always #our life beginnings and always #olba baxter #our life baxter #baxter ward #this is what i mean by “i don't haye Baxter's character” i think hes very interesting and we should look towards his dlc with critical eyes #because it's a fact that his dlc was rushed and that kab/gb lady doesnt care for him #it shown in the writing of his dlc #so that is interesting for me but is also interesting for me how ppl are quick to baby this man #like again baxter is fucking 19 when he leaves mc “but misty 19 year olds aren't fully growns up” hi 19 year old here #i know that bitch but im old enough to understand that my actions have consequences and affect others #which is smth Baxter is aware of as well #that's fhe thing that bothers me #hes young enough to make that mistake but old enough to understand it will impact mc view on relationships #romantic or platonic smth like that will affect you in some ways #and he knows because hes not a young teenager who still doesn't know how his actions impact people #hes legally an adult he can live on his own hes able to ride a car hes off to college #is not a grown up but is not a child either #as a 19 year old I would love of ppl treated him as a young adult making a dumb mistake #instead of a baby who didn't know any better #like even if he did regret it he knows that thats his fault #hes aware that hes doing this shit to himself and wont stop #thats the point of his dlc #anyways i should make a post on cove's autism

ill say it before and ill say it again. hc that teru doesnt like serizawa at all.

#im gonna go into it here cuz im not confident in my hcs hi hello #so actually not cuz of the whole claw thing. i think that seri wanting to be a better person is like the one thing teru respects about him #and thats the thing. hes like !!! hes kinda like me!!! so he lowkey tries to make a connection thru that like haha we were both assholes an #arent perfect but trying! but see heres the thing. serizawa is an adult. he wants to act like an adult. so he treats teru like a child. not #in a bad way. normal adult to child. he respects him and all but see teru acts and maybe feels that he feels like an adult. so he sees that #as disrespectful. finally someone whos kinda ignorant like him... but hes treating teru like hes a child?! maybe legally serizawa is an #adult but after staying inside his room for years and then all that manipulation at claw.. mentally teru considers them the same. except #that seri wont act like it cuz reigen told him how to treat regular teenagers but teru isnt a regular teenager get what im sayin #ok and. then teru is kinda mean to him like ok man get outta my way but seri respects him and gives him more chances which makes teru feel #guilty which makes him dislike seri even more and try to push him away by being mean and its this hopeless cycle until one day teru snaps a #him and they have an actual conversation and he can see that hes actually the one treating serizawa like a child. and that hes like a shitt #adult in this scenario am i making any sense is anyone even listening #anyways sorry this is in the tags if u thought it was good and wanted to rb. hope i made u consider some dynamics

can't stop thinking about shannon hanchett's death. i feel sick. i don't even know if something like justice exists for what was done to her.

#like if they call you crazy they will just put you wherever. they will neglect you or torture you or kill you. they dont fucking care.#nobody does #temporarily losing my legal autonomy as an adult via being in the psych ward is one of the scariest things ive ever experienced #and i didnt go thru a fraction of what shannon hanchett went thru. i mean the difference of psych ward and jail too #i was in 4 times inpatient and 1 outpatient as a teenager and it sucked sure. but it was like a playground compared to the adult ward.#but after my overdose age 20 one of the cops got in the ambulance with the EMTs as i was losing consciousness #and the cop rode with us literally pounding on my chest to try and keep me awake and like asking 'who is the president' etc. but #he was hitting me with his knuckles. my breastbone fucking bruised black and blue. it took weeks to fade away #(mastectomy is relevant here bc i have less tissue in my chest than most ppl do. the bones feel closer to the surface)#so yeah that hurt like a mf but i didnt feel it fully in the moment cause i lost consciousness during the 7-10 min ride to the ER.#and then after being in the ER on an IV for ? hours and being moved to the psych ward... they just fucking left me for 2-3 days. i dont eve #KNOW because i dont REMEMBER because i was fucking zonked from all the pills i overdosed on. i had no sense of time at all.#and it turns out one of my best friends was showing up every day & begging/demanding the nurses to put me on an iv bc i was dehydrated #since i was out of it obv not able to eat or drink. and they wouldnt. and she was begging them to check on me or attend to me because they #simply left me in my room for days. no clue if a doctor saw me after i left the ER. my blood pressure was literally 60/30 though.#which was extremely painful thats all i remember of those days. it still hurt so fuckin much the day i finally got up and was semi consciou #like my muscles were being squeezed yet exploding. walking was so difficult. it was some of the worst pain of my entire life #besides some sense memories of incredible pain and discomfort it's like blank from when i passed out in the ambulance until that 3rd day #my friend told me later she didnt even know if i was in a coma or something. they wouldnt tell anyone anything #so then i saw the psych team and i remember seeing the room as if thru a 10 meter tunnel. and the doctor started telling me #how lucid and aware i was. repeatedly. he was like. pleasantly surprised. meanwhile i actually felt like my entire body was about to ruptur #and i KNEW that doctor was implying 'you're so aware and insightful - unlike all those Real schizo freaks here!!!!'#ha ha doc! i'm crazy enough that i could easily tell passive lies & come across as fairly well adjusted (when i wasnt activly spiraling.) s #fucking despised him for that. well i would fight & die for the people who were there w/ me. but i would NEVER fucking save a psychiatrist.#police/psych industry overlap is hell for me to hear about. it makes me so fucking angry i want to scream and just rip all my hair out #the helplessness drives me fucking insane i will never ever trust authority because i know they dont care if i die.#i was the fucking. hysterical womanman with a death wish. of course they didnt fucking care if i died.#i was not fucking tortured like she was tho. what i experienced just pales in comparison to this news story. im not trying to #make it about me it just brings everything back. it reminds me how fucking lucky i am. HOW FUCKING LUCKY I AM TO BE ALIVE AND HAVE AUTONOMY #we're all fucking BLESSED to not be institutionalized rn

it's literally not a good idea in any way shape or form but I want to get a second job in fast food

#it's not a good idea bc the wages are GARBAGE compared to retail #Macca's base rate for my age is less than half my sunday rate #and they don't get much beyond the base rate #whereas retail we have an incredible base rate AND more weekdays past 6pm and weekends (sat is the same as mon-fri 6pm #and sunday is significantly more)#and like yeah im not getting many shifts but if i were to ask for more I still wouldn't be able to work more than 4 hour shifts til july #bc my retail corporation is surprisingly ethical and extends the age limits by a lot #whereas my friend has a 7.5 half hour shift tomorrow AFTER school. on a week night 😁#which is actually horrifying and should nawwt be legal. thats school 9-3 (+20 min) then work 4-11:30 btw #like i should just wait til my birthday in july n ask for more shifts in retail but i want to try fast food #even though the pay is incredibly ridiculously bad (<10 AUD) (yes our adult minimum wage is a good ~23 but under 21 is a percentage of that #like the pay is so bad so i would earn the same or more doing wayy less hours than retail #but i kinda want to get the fast food experience bc it'll be more difficult to get hired as i age #bc i want to save up 20k for top surgery but at the rate im going it'll be difficult to have even thay #let alone savings after top surgery or money to get a car before #and as school gets more difficult it'll be harder to work more #so maybe i should just grind for a few months or til the end of the year then go back to retail exclusively?#and enjoy higher pay and some longer shifts?#but idkkk it's just such a dilemma bc i want more shifts than I'll get at retail but fast food pays so little #but i also really want the experience and to just try it out #im gonna. idk im gonna sit on it for a bit bc i want to get my legal name change sorted before i apply to any second jobs and that will #take a while #so i shall consider. draw up a timetable. write a pros and cons list #yes that sounds like a solid plan #whoop typo but im on mobile i meant 'wayy less hours IN retail'

Saw my own tags mentioning Lucis never had their quinceañera (or as we call it here simply Cumpleaños De Quince) so I thought it'd be cute to draw them actually experiencing it even if a bit late. This is how they can still be saved ☝️💯☝️☝️

#my art #oc lucis mori #btw i didnt have one bc I'm butch LMAO #i just had a party at home w my friends and i wore my rainbow sockssss -_-#but Lucis deserves the pampering #dsaf oc #<- no other way to call it this is literally just an au now 😭#i had NO reason to draw them in the style except for #this actually being a gift for them is jsut... y'know... really cute...-_- 🥺#lucis has a innocence to them a purity that l.l. lacks for shit like this #also fact they're an adult legally makes the possibility for fucking deranged partying possible which is just hilarious #quiero ver el carnaval carioca...#GOD JUST THOUGHT OF THEM GETTING THE SCAR COVERED FOR THE OCCASION TOO W JACK'S HELP GREUUSHAUAJGB #im literally just throwing lucis here and making them get adopted its so funny #queueing tjis for 9 am

rapidly approaching my 21st birthday is hard and weird but not for any normal reasons thats for sure

#not a vent post im just rambling in the tags #theres 4 main factors at play here.#firstly theres Society n all that telling me 21 is a Special Biethday!!! you'll be old enough to legally do adult things!!!#secondly theres the fact that i love being alive and celebrating it this shit rules like fuck yes i get to keep living hell yes #thirdly theres the fact that i kinda dont actually care. like its chill. ive reached the point where a birthday is a cute lil tradition #i dont gotta go wild with it and dont feel the need to treat it differently than any other day #but also the 4th thing which is 21 is yet another age my doctors told me id never get to see so like this is A Big One #so this is actually hard as hell because fundamentally i dont care that much n dont have strong emotions BUT FUCK DUDE WHAT IF BIG CELEBRAT #constantly sitting here going hehe yayy its my birthday soon cant wait to hang out with my friends and then go back to normal life #while also going I NEED BIG PLANS I NEED HUGE PLANS I NEED A CELEBRATION OFF THE WALLS OH FUCK OH GOD #it doesnt stop being funny. i dont even know what kind of big thing id do anyways #mom said i couldnt go to moterey bay aquarium too much money and that was my only idea #ive been thinking about this for weeks and have come up with 0 other plans #'we gotta do a huge party' ok then come up with one then dumbass #oh noooo guess ill have a nice time at home just like any other day oh nooooo #guess my 21st birthday will be unspecial. darn. anyways

keep on feeling anxious about the idea of starting t and its like well do i feel i wouldnt like it? no i want more hair. and also a deeper voice. and also other stuff. but what i really do not want is to have to make a phone call

#if i go on t i have to fight my dad about it so im trying to hype myself up #but it makes it more anxiety inducing by default bc it feels like i dont have 'permission'#as if im not like. a full legal adult #gerry & kabru will kill me if i dont which should also serve as motivation on its own #aster speaks

Can’t wait for my drivers license to arrive so I can be driving legally again for the first time in 1.5 years!

#for legal reasons this is a joke #SO THIS IS WHATS UP #as a youngin #a young adult one might say #I was starting to learn that some systems are bullshit when I’d previously been a pretty big rule-follower #my mom showing me how to navigate the healthcare system a bit/showing me how student loans legit have practices to confuse and fuck us over #also im really bad at getting things in on time (this is an important fact)#so when I see that my drivers license is abt to expire. I’m like ‘Oup gotta get that done!’ then promptly forget abt it #next time I remember it’s 3 months expired.#I check the date and realize that wait! in a year imma be turning 21 and just one yr after that Real ID’s will become mandatory (im p sure)#so I decide to push off renewing my license! I think that the whole process will b annoying asf bc I’ve only dealt with the DMV in-person #and it SUCKED and took forever. I’m thinking that if I renew my drivers license right on/after my 21st birthday I can knock out two birds #with one stone: I can get it as a Real ID and I can get an updated picture that’s flipped sideways so getting age-checked is faster #little do i know: it’s v much illegal to be driving around with an expired license!#I drive around for a year (over a year? I don’t remember when I first realized it was expired) j having fun #then one month b4 my 21st birthday I get into an abroad study thing and have to get my passport. which I realize is also expired. and #realize that to renew my passport I have to have a valid drivers license. At this point I also realize how fucked I could be if I get pulled #over with my expired license. so I check out the process for DL renewal and rejoice! it’s online!#AND THANK FUCK I CHECKED THEN. bc if I had waited LITERALLY two more days I would not have been able to renew online and would’ve had to go #in-person. and there were no in-person appointments until after my 21st. and I learned in this process abt the fines my state applies when u #renew a DL late and ALSO that u have to entirely retake the test/redo all the paperwork shit if it’s expired for too long. I would’ve had to #retake the test n everything if I’d gone past my bday. I was also in another state for college. idk how incoherent these ramblings are but #basically I would’ve been Ultra Fucked. anyways! got that figured out #renewed the DL and had it sent to my home. then da house floods and crime goes up in the neighborhood and my DL ends up either being lost #Or tossed (with other flood-damaged things) or stolen.#I don’t realize this for 4 months bc I am silly. also in college out-of-state. also other reasons.#finally got around to calling DMV and telling them that my DL never arrived… 6 months after I renewed it!#and they were v sweet and are resending me my DL for free. so in the next few weeks I shall finally b driving legally again #!!!! the end #mypost

#so #maybe a week ago #there was a post about the doll commercial movie on my dash #and it was about how yeah the movies feminism was like 101 babys first feminism #because the audience it was aimed at arent people who have read feminist theory #so of course it was just The Basics #so that critique of it wasnt really valid or whatever #kinda like the ''are you trying to buy ice cream at the hardware store?'' idea #but more ''why are you trying to sell ice cream at the hardware store?''#and the post annoyed me but im a mature adult who does not have the energy to get into fights on tumblr so i just scrolled past #and i was trying to parse through the annoyance to figure out why it annoyed me so much #and i was thinking ''did it annoy me because i was in this post and i didnt like it?''#but i kept coming back to the two references to native americans in the film and how both were insensitive #one being the comparison of the kens implementing patriarchy to barbieland to the smallpox blankets and hence the wider genocide of natives #and the other being the barbie version of mount rushmore which you know was settlers desecrating the black hills which legally belonged to #natives and was a sacred mountain (going off memory i think the sioux the cheyenne and the lakota people all had claim)#and it was thinking about thst mixed with watching a leftist youtuber cover a prageru video that i realised why that post annoyed me so much #BECAUSE #the criticism wasnt just that the feminism in it is babys first feminism with the training wheels on #(which i also still kinda have a bone to pick with tbh but thats another post for another day)#a major part of the criticsm of the films feminist themes is that they were white feminist themes #the entire film was from the perspective of a white audience #the film was assumedly white if that makes any sense #like barbie is just Original Barbie because she just is. she was the first one and everyone came after her #at no point is her whiteness even acknowledged let alone explored #the film explores things like beauty standards and workplace misogyny and motherhood and the patriarchy in general but it dares not even #tiptoe around race. it just blatantly ignores it the way second wave feminism did. and oh does that coincide so unfortunately with the kens #strike back plot which lowkey perpetuates the myth that giving equal rights to an oppressed group will lead to them oppressing you #the lens from which the film views the world is one of whiteness and ignorance and privilege. white feminism is not feminism 101 #basic feminism should not exclude women of colour.

As much as I like my chosen name at the moment I feel like if I were to change it again in the future (let’s be real it’s probably because I got bored of my current name, I’m a mercurial creature) I’d probably like the name Heron or Mortimer. At one point I thought about Jack or Quinn but I don’t really think they suit me anymore, plus Heron and Mortimer feel more like Me. I also really like Rorschach but unfortunately I’ve used it for an OC and it’s a pretty distinct name so I feel like that’s off the table now. Also I think I definitely want to change my surname so at the moment I’m thinking either Skinner, Tricker or Whitlock but we’ll see.

#cant tell my parents because they’ll lecture me on how “life isn’t a character creation menu” well guess what. im going to be Funky #anyway they can’t do anything once im legally an adult which i only have a few months to wait for 👍#ngl though Mortimer Whitlock is such a cool fucking name #then my nickname could be Wit hell yeah

i didn't become the biggest megabitch alive when filing out paperwork and legal documents, somebody give me a prize

#blurs #i u usually get really frustrated having to navigate legal docs and shit online #mostly bc i don't have access to a laptop and half the time i've got no other adults who know what they're doing #so im having to research as i go #which gets me fired up #anyways #i am genuinely proud of myself for it. means i'm getting better

Just thinking. Trying to maybe write later...

#Okay so in a decent amount of fic the writers make it that Makoto can read braille #and at the end of the day its a completely understandable little detail #but it always makes me 🤔#because being blind doesn't mean you'd automatically learn to read braille...#my aunty has this thing called stargardts disease which is genetic and she was diagnosed over 20 years agao #and has been legally blind for god probably 18 years #and she's still never learnt to read braille #she got taught to walk with a cane bc australia does have p good healthcare for the visually impaired #she even did a touch typing course back before she got put on the disability pension and was still working #i think they might have even given her a book of braille bc i vaguely remember touching it #but she never learnt #so im just not really sure makoto wpuld have learnt to sufficiently read in braille in the short period she had #theres no reason for Lee to know how to read it either so I imagine in 1988 it would be difficult #i mean Lee could have known someone who came and taught her a bit but idk #i think logically she probably just couldnt read in braille #had the tojo clan not upended her life with Lee and depending if she regained vision anytime soon #she might have learned but i think a lot of people who had vision and then lost it as an adult dontnecessarily #act the same as someone who was born with it or lost it very very young #case in point: my aunty #so yeah one of those things thats genuinely not really an issue #im just a mental case that THINKS and reads into things #and goes Hmm 🤔#lmao #apparently she says she reads in braille in the game which i dont remember but ?#tbh that just reads as the writers not actually properly thinking about how short a time she would have had to learn it tbh #like she might have been learning bit by bit but i highly doubt she was fluid with it #idk these games are bad with disability lmao #Aoki is a prime example just bc he got a lung transplant doesnt mean he would suddenly be fuckin able bodied like ????
