#coconut's rant

[deadbeat-motel]

As much as I like Rosie's simplistic design, I cannot get over the fact that the animators can barely be bothered to keep this woman on model.

(Mind you, the top row is from episode 3 and the bottom rows are basically from the same scene only minutes or seconds apart.)

The animators either had no turnaround reference sheet to go with or they finally broke after having to animate the entire main cast for more than 3 hours runtime.

Hey guys !! So actually Regulus survived in ahb and he and James are actually living down here in Rio I just saw them walk around the calçadão de Copacabana.

[sniffanimal]

is it a red flag or sexy that I only like artificially flavored Pina colada stuff and not anything made with real ingredients like coconut and pineapple. I only want stuff made in a lab to be a simulacrum of the tropical cocktail

Sometimes it's annoying how unseriously people take my allergies when they find out I won't die. Like, yeah, I won't die, but that doesn't change the fact that I am allergic, my body doesn't like this, I will suffer.

I don't mind being the taste tester for people who do have deadly allergic reactions to the same allergies I have, don't get me wrong. Because I'd rather have one of my allergic reactions than have them nearly die. Doing that doesn't bother me.

It bothers me when people don't take into account the fact that I have allergies. I'm not asking for accommodation in places I really shouldn't be eating, like I won't go into an Asian restaurant with a soy allergy and demand they make something I can eat. Because I'm not an asshole and the world doesn't revolve around me, I can save everyone the time and energy, if I just eat somewhere else.

But allergies are serious whether you'd die from them or not, the fact that I won't die from mine doesn't mean that I don't avoid my allergies like the plague. My reactions are real, and they're painful.

If it's a minor reaction, I suffer for a few hours with stomach cramps and nausea, but if it's big enough, I could be out of commission for several days because of how sick I get. Hell, even the smell of my allergies can make me nauseous and give me headaches.

It just kind of bugs me when people that have known me for a long time, and this is pointedly at my parents who have seen my intense reactions firsthand, act like my reactions to having my allergies being cooked around me is overreacting. I'm not overreacting when I get headaches and nausea from someone microwaving leftovers that have copious amounts of nuts or soy, I'm not overreacting when I refuse to eat around them while they eat their dinners with a lot of soy or nuts because I get headaches and nausea, and I'm not overreacting when I'm upset that I have to constantly remind them of what I can and can't eat.

Can we all just acknowledge for a moment how great it is that one of the mainstay supporting Kaiju in Godzilla movies is Mothra? Like we got all these imaginative designs that are only loosely based on any real creature and then we have a big moth. And like in the newer American movies they make her more stylized which is cool, but I'm watching one of the older movies rn and she's literally just moth but gigantic. I know giant giant big monster movies were a thing way back in the day but low-key they need to make a comeback. Maybe I just have a phobia but I think any monster movie would be made 1,000,000x more scary if we just used modern technology to make the monsters gigantic photorealistic arthropods instead. Like you know coconut crabs? Those things terrify me, make a movie where a giant one of those destroys a city I'd watch it 10 times in theatres and dies of fright every time. Anyways Mothra is the best even though the thought of moth the size of a city block kind of makes me queasy.

the reason why liberal vs conservative youtube debates never work is because conservative talking points are short and sweet (fuck muslims, poc, women, lgbt, poor people, and black people specifically, because “god,” white supremacy, and american exceptionalism and individualism) whereas liberal talking points require time and have nuance (well actually we need equity and respect and community and intersectionality and we need to dismantle systemic racism/classism/sexism/xenophobia and etc etc and this is why—)

also because conservatives lack empathy which is frustrating for the average person with even kindergarten level empathy to converse with.

conservatives also have such conviction that there was no hope to change their mind in the first place, so when the liberal “snowflakes” start crying or get upset bc they can’t understand why the “pro-life” conservative doesn’t care about the safety of children in schools or the welfare of people who don’t wish to be mothers due to any situation, but especially when there was trauma involved or they were a minor, then the conservative won the debate because they kept their cool in their assholeishness

like wtf sorry that i care about people who look different that me and have lives, values, and beliefs that differ from mine.

Goodbye Snickers

Last week I got diagnosed with a peanut allergy. At the ripe old age of 36, I'm allergic to peanuts. I know that you can develop an allergy at any age to anything, but it's just so weird. And annoying. There are peanuts in Snickers bars, which is my favorite American candy bar.

And there is so little information to help adults who suddenly get diagnosed with a peanut allergy.

Kids with peanut allergies? Yeah, we've got loads of info and tips to help you and your parents get through this!

Adult who was just diagnosed? You're on you own!

I just got used to all the ridiculous things I have to do to get around a coconut allergy (coconut is in so many things, including shampoo and toothpaste). And now I have to learn all the alternative and derivative names for peanuts! I don't know how I'm going to get through this. Peanuts were one of the only protein replacements I liked (I stopped eating peanut butter in 2002 because of a dance partner who was 1/2 an inch taller than me, putting my nose level with his mouth, who liked to eat a peanut butter cup before every rehearsal). Now I'm stuck with beans and lentils.

I'm sorry, if you're still reading this. This was not meant to turn into a rant. I'm just really frustrated and Tumblr is the only social media site I use regularly that allows me to post something this long. I'm just so frustrated with my body and everything that it keeps putting me through.

If you've read this far and also have a peanut allergy and are willing to share some tips as an adult with the allergy, I'm all ears (or, rather, eyes).

Ah. Uh-oh. Oopsie.

[sniffanimal]

I told my primary care Dr Ive been developing a lot of sensitivities to different foods and I suspect it might be a common additive I'm allergic to and he was like huh and sent me to an allergist who then told me I should just stop eating that ingredient and ill stop having a reaction to it. hence my rant on allergies

She want a big dawg

Inspo: that trend on tiktok and yall know the one. Somebody made a edit to him to this and i seen the vision. Plus the girlies been saying they tired of smutt so

warning: its purely fluff; 865 word

Being ex military Terry always felt like he was on guard— being a light sleeper, always scoping the scenery out, early morning 6 mile bike rides but there was just something about you that put him at ease.

You were so soft, gentle, always finding the humor in something even if you did have a bit of a dark sense of humor. The scent of coconut always lingered on your smooth skin and your lips stayed pink and glossy no matter how much you licked them. 

The way you thought you could command him to do something even being nearly half his size when all he had to do was give you complete eye contact and you would fold like a lawn chair. All you had to do was bat those pretty brown eyes up at him and that man would build you a house anything to keep that smile on your face.

And in the evenings he loves sitting on the porch with you more specifically he’ll come find you wherever you are in the house, wrap his large arms around you and carry you listening to you rant about your day, or whatever book you were reading or whatever you see on social media.

“She dont want no puppy she want a big dog” you sing for the fourth time since he picked you up holding you with just one arm as if you weighed nothing and he just chuckles at you when you place a bunch of kisses on his face.

“You better chill before you start something mama” he leaves a peck on your lips watching the way you look at him with so much love and admiration like he hung the sun moon and stars in the sky just for you.

Ignoring him you squeeze him tighter in a hug loving the way he kisses the top of your head pulling you closer inhaling his scent feeling the humidity kiss your skin the minute he walks to the porch swing. down south was always warm but nothing could beat the warmth of your embrace.

“Babe, you know how much I love you?” You smile up at him tightening your legs around his waist and he holds your face in both of his large palms pecking your forehead, then nose and finally lips.

“What silly little tic tac trend you trying to trick me into now?” He asks, reading you like an open book watching the way your jaw drops. He knew when you were sweet talking him and what for too— you had been singing that song that one specific part for the past two days. 

“Its tik tok! And what you think you know me or something?” You playfully scrunch your face up pushing your long dark curls that fell from your bun out your face. He chuckles, angling his head down to you watching you squirm instantly. No matter how long yall was together it was certain things he did that still gave you butterflies and made you nervous.

“Baby girl don't insult me, of course i know you” and he pulls you back to him tightly closing his eyes enjoying the sound of nature as day turns into evening. “And i know if you keep pulling away from me imma have to really pin you down”

Terrys love language actually was physical touch, loved having you in his arms, carrying you, waking up in the morning to you still cuddled up to him or when he’s making breakfast and your little arms wrap around his waist grumbling about him leaving you and the bed being cold without him. Or when it’s your turn to cook dinner and he steals kisses knowing you don’t like to be bothered when you cook, always successfully fishing when you swat at him for trying to steal food from the pot. So who were you to deny this time as if your love language isn't spending time together.

You finally settle in his arms, head on his chest yet halfway on his upper arm and he sinks further into the swing slowly rocking it back and forth, left arm running up and down your back unaware of your antics until something catches his ear.

“She dont want no puppy” the music plays and you try to sit up as if he made empty threats tightening his biceps around your shoulders, he definitely was not against pinning you down. “She want a big dawg”

Opening his eyes he looks down at you watching how contempt you look with him squeezing tightly around you not even bothered in the slightest only looking up when you see him looking at you through the camera.

“Ok ok im done go ahead put your old man music on” you giggle happily. you got your video and his muscles were wrapped tightly around you, even placing a kiss on his bare chest before laying back down. Ignoring your slick comment he puts on redbone by childish gambino and like clockwork your hands start running over his back and arms slowly and softly turning him into putty, unraveling his muscles slowly putting him at ease like you always do.
