#i am literally friendless!!!

[kayawolfhorse]

Something about how Joel’s been chill throughout the entirety of Secret Life, uncharacteristic to previous seasons, where he’d been red long before his eyes changed to the color. How he’s been on neutral terms with Scott, someone he’s had a one-sided rivalry with for most of the life series, until he was given a task that made him Scott’s assassin. How Joel hasn’t felt true bloodlust until he missed his shot, running from the fail button vowing to kill Scott, when or how ever that may be

is it autism or is it a symptom of previous longterm social isolation and lack of agency ?

[lavenderdayze]

the horrible experience of waking up to a decimated group chat and no one is talking so you don't know if you even have friends anymore because you're the tertiary third friend

Theres a guy near me who’s white, not super pale, but definitely not Black either. Three years ago he got the pass to say the n word and it’s since been revoked by the person who gave him the pass, but he keeps saying it “just to prove he can.” A lot of people have tried calling him out on it, but he still won’t stop, and he’s started expanding his vocabulary to other slurs and using super racist terms. I tried pointing this out, but I keep getting ignored, so I’m wondering if you could offer any advice (besides punching him in the face, I have considered that multiple times but ultimately ignored the thoughts™️. If this isn’t something you’re comfortable with giving advice on, it’s totally okay, but I’m really stuck and literally no one is acknowledging the fact that he’s being super bigoted and racist.

(FYI, I am white, but your blog is the reason why I know that the words he was using weren’t okay, so thank you for the work you do! Ik I’m late but happy blog-aversary)

This is why the whole "inviting people to the cookout" thing is stupid, and whatever Black person genuinely "gave him the pass" needs to ballsy up and swing about it to fix his mistakes bc THREE YEARS is INSANE work 🤣. Let me be clear:

JUST BECAUSE ONE BLACK "FRIEND" LETS YOU SAY THAT WORD TO THEM DOES NOT MEAN THE REST OF US WILL!

That is HILARIOUS lmao he really said "oh my Black friend-" 🤣 no tbh you might need to just hit him. Or, to get easier, put him in a space where someone else will catch him with a twisted tea 🤣 Challenge him to enter a majority Black space and start dropping them words, or he's bitch 👀. If he gets quiet, he knows he's wrong! Hell, record him saying this stuff and send it to his job! Stupid games, stupid prizes!

Because atp he's just a racist. He knows better, he's been told better, and he doesn't care. Aight 🤷🏾‍♀️ so you've chosen violence! Y'all gotta stop letting these folks upset you and start humiliating them. He should feel embarrassed, friendless, for this behavior, and if he continues to feel safe and included to speak like this amongst yall, that means that your inner circle has some issues too. 👀 Might be time for you to reconsider who you look like birds of a feather with!

Credits to @/_momorxn on twitter for the translation! I just wanted to have it in the comic because this literally destroyed me this morning. I ranted to my partner abt this for like a good 30 minutes.

The bully calls them losers, and ivan didnt know what it meant. So, he asks till, and he explains that it basically means "friendless idiot" after calling ivan an idiot, which then prompted ivan to say that the bully was right and they were both friendless idiots. This clearly made till upset and since he only knows how to defend himself with violence he punches ivan and runs away in frustration because in his eyes, ivan, the only friend he had and probably the only person that didnt make him feel like a "friendless idiot", was insulting him of being just that. However, ivan clearly didnt mean it as an offense, he was simply stating what was obvious to him.... that till and him only had each other, and so that made them both "friendless idiots".

Ivan learnt two things that day : first, when something is hurt, you gently touch them and tell them to stay strong. second, he was a loser. So now that hes hurt both physically from till's punch and emotionally for offending his one and only, he gently pats his own injury and tells himself to stay strong, despite the lingering pain that was tormenting him and making it hard for him to confidently believe in what he was saying. am i being dramatic? probably. But this is worth being dramatic for

No more KOSA (Kids Online Safety Act)

I am a minor, and I'm speaking from experience.

Without the internet as it is, I would:

Have committed suicide

Be friendless

Not be able to start my career early

Not be able to share my artwork and writing

Get help

First, LGBTQIA+ concern:

I am part of the LGBTQIA+ community as a young minor. I identify as a genderless AroAce (which is uncommon, but part of the community). Without being able to explain who I was, I would have felt alone, an outcast among girls (as my original gender), and felt like something was wrong with me. And I would not have been able to explain my romantic and sexual attraction. I would have been pretty much forced into a relationship when I will be older, but identifying as AroAce helps me avoid those questions. I could have had the inconvenience of a boyfriend (because what would be gay? I would be forced into a straight relationship). I learned about sex and how to stay safe with it ON THE INTERNET. Along with orientations and genders. There are so many teen pregnancies that fuck up people's possible future careers, all because they didn't know how to practice safe sex or even the possibility of not being attracted to people in the first place!

Second, mental health:

I have Autistic friends, most of them are from the internet. I only know the symptoms and problems with Autism. Without the internet, I could have felt like an outcast between my peers without explanation. Knowing about Autism (and other disabilities and disorders) and its symptoms is a valuable tool, it could help you interact with people with those who have it, or find out if YOU might have it.

I would've committed suicide. I have many friends on the internet. And without them. I would be friendless. Without support. I would've felt lonely. My irl friends rarely text me, so one summer break I almost committed suicide. But at the time I almost committed it, I texted my online friend who lives on the other side of the Earth. And she was there for me when no one else was, when I was sad, and about to kill myself. Without the internet, I would have never met her. And without her, I would have literally died. I now have many wonderful friends on the internet, and they all help me be who I am, and stay here with you, so that I can now speak.

Third, my career:

The reason I have Tumblr, is so that I can show myself. I can post about art, interests, projects, and so on. I can reblog other peoples' art and learn from them. Without Tumblr (and other social media), I would have never been able to put myself out there. Right now I have 35 followers on my main blog, and some other followers on my smaller blogs. I can build a following, so finally when I get a job, I can say "Hey! Look at me: People know me, they like my art, they support me." And support helps. I can start a YouTuber channel and show myself and also get money from it. I can jumpstart my career here.

Thank you. Any questions or clarifications would be appreciated. I am now done speaking from my experience so far, use this however you'd like.

I have a personal gripe with stories that have their main character have no friends. I’m not talking about loner characters who open up or when that is an explicit aspect of the story/their character, but when a (typically adult) character has no friends from before the story for seemingly no reason. Like, they are an adult? Do they not socialise? Do they not have a single friend from high school/uni? Often, these characters will have parents and siblings and maybe a partner or kids, but no friends unless that friend is a love interest.

Like, I read a 70k fanfiction that was really, really good but the happy ending didn't feel like one because the two MCs (who were love interests) literally did not have a single friend whatsoever. One had one other friend who they spoke to once and that was it and it ended up weakening the ending.

I have this on my mind at the moment cuz I’ve just gotten into DCU stuff and it’s everywhere. Superman, for example, is a very friendly character but the only people he is close with at all are Lois Lane (love interest) and his parents. Does he have no friends back home? What about where he works? Sure, he’s friendly with many of them, but that’s not the same thing.

Another example is Bruce Wayne. He starts off with, at most, Alfred and 1 kid. He is supposedly a socialite who is very well liked but has no friends??? Not even from before Batman??? And even throughout his own story (not including stuff where he is explicitly working with other heroes like JL) he only has his kids, Alfred, a couple of lovers and technically Harvey (who becomes one of his rogues and we basically never see them as friends so I’m not counting it). It is why I am so attached to Oliver and Bruce being good friends in their civilian IDs - without it, he feels basically friendless. And yes, I get that Bruce is probably not going to be getting close to people because he’s a vigilante, but still, not even friendly acquaintances who are named???.

It’s not just Bruce and Clark, but a lot of other characters I notice this with. It's a thing with basically every dc hero and often pops up in a lot of other pieces of media with adult protagonists. Lover? Yep. Kids? Sure. Friends? Ew, no.

Well tell us about the graduation then

Sure! As the names implies, it's when Bonbon graduates from school, and she gets sad. See how sad she is in the drawing, what's the mystery? :0

Ok jokes aside, big lore dump warning bellow (if you haven't read the previous post, I highly recommend it):

Graduating school (or for Americans I guess it's highschool). It's the end of a chapter of your life and a beginning of a new one. It isn't any different for Bonbon, but considering I already said it's the final piece of how we got nowadays Bonbon...

There are a few things you need to keep in mind to understand Bonbon situation. First, you may recall Bonbon is almost friendless, having just 1 friend, Cinnamon. Bonbon literally maintained friendship with just 1 person all the way up graduation, she is logically heavily depended on that friendship. So much so the moment they got distant for a period, bonbon went into downhill spiral. Graduation means you stop seeing your classmates (by extension friends) daily, slowly and steady you start talking less too. You probably see where I'm going with this. It is a ticking time bomb before the course of life separates them..

The second thing you need to know, is related to how Bonbon graduated. Sure, she finished school and did the final exams, but didn't end up with the best grades, especially on that "easy year", where everyone else managed to get better grades than normal. See, the bomb now explodes. Bonbon ends up to failing to enter any university. Needless to say, this was emotionally devastating for her. And while she had a easier time coping by distracting herself, she was far from okay mentally.

What happens is, Bonbon would spend the next year in a special school to improve some of her grades, so she could try and enter university again. Yes, a new school even further away. The bonus, the classes were at night! Lovely arriving home at 23:30. Who needs a good sleep schedule when you can sleep all morning am right? More time to lazy around. Cinnamon on the other hand entered uni in another city, so far away she had to move there due to atrocious travel times. There was now a curious problem, both were super far apart and on different schedules of free time. Talking with one another suddenly became super hard, and they ended up talking only on weekends. Cinamon adapted the same way as before, by just talking with her other friends. Bonbon on the other hand, for what should be no surprise, made 0 attempts to make friends on the new school, never speaking to anybody unless she was spoken to. There was only 1 time someone tried to befriend her by introducing themselves, bonbon ended up forgetting their names and face 10 minutes later. Interpret that however you want.

As time passes, those weekends talks delude to just few monthly talks, as Cinnamon would extend the time with the friends on weekends too. For her it wasn't a matter of choosing, she just invites bonbon to the conversations with her group of friends. Sadly, it just made the bunny feel worse. Put yourself in her perspective, being in a group of people you don't get along, where everyone is in university talking about their successful life's are, while you are at the button, hits hard doesn't it? Well, it made her feel like a failure. I'm unsure if I made it obvious, but ever since Bonbon fails to enter university, she just gets slowly worse and worse across that year. An extremely bad sleep schedule for a year makes anyone way grumpier, add in a heavy dose of sarcasm for a bad mood to handle others into the mix, she feels constantly demotivated to study or try things, is extremely lazy, horrible low self-esteem... I could go on but the word 'depressed' probably describes it all symptoms well. Also, from this point forward, you will rarely see her smile. The result by the end up the year is nowadays Bonbon. She is technically at her worse during the year, she does improve a bit afterwards.

Welp, thats it! Graduation is probably the most WIP chapter, there are parts here that need more detailing or changes. But the general core idea is that Bonbon fails to enter university and she basically loses her best friend. I haven't mentioned, but they both never see each other again. (at least, for the part of the lore I have layed out)

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Chapter 33

how do you read this and come out thinking dumbledore is in the wrong? I am definitely looking at you weird, sorry. It is quite literally spelled out to you why exactly he is disgusted (actually, why aren't you disgusted as well???)

("I have asked him", did you lick his boot and kiss his ass while at it? ofc he did, what am I asking?)

Snape is a little bitch who is really just a "nice guy TM" at that point. he is stinky, friendless and bitchless but really none of that compares to the fact that he is a fucking supremacist lmao. Albus just went to hear him out, took one for the team and used his privilege to conduct these deals. I am so curious of the thought process that leads one to think snape is the victim here. (totally unrelated would love to know their stance on certain issues)

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Chapter 33

Albus is so much better than me (should have said "yeah me too buddy") He is still so slayful and so cuntyyyy, what a diva. "What use would your death be to anyone?" wow, I would kms before getting on this man's bad side.

[cloudedcreams]

Can we have a yandere who fell in love with reader because she was quiet and gave off the air of some sort of elegant princess or something while also being kind (because she'd look out for the people around her without expecting anything in return, and that includes him. And him being the oily haired, awkward, friendless little freak he is couldn't help but latch onto her), but when he starts stalking her/befriends her (or both), he learns that she's actually really fucking talkative and highkey autistic? As in, stims a lot (constantly fiddling with objects, making strange noises, clapping, shaking her head or the classic, flapping her hands) or info-dumping or poor regulation of vocal volume because he finds her at a point where she's relaxed and no longer masking!

And I say "she" or princess", but if you so please, you can definitely make it gender neutral. I just use feminine pronouns because I'm a girl.

I'm hesitant to write this request though since some authors are hesitant to write neurodivergent characters if they have no prior knowledge, so it's okay to ignore this request <3 I completely understand the discomfort of writing something so unfamiliar. Or, you don't necessarily have to diagnose reader with anything, and simply write them off as someone that acts vastly different when they're relaxed and is free from judgement.

If it's not obvious, I'm an autistic mascot🥰 (dubbed by my friend, lol).

I was going to do this anonymous but then I realised that cringe is dead and I've requested for worse things. Shyent represents!!!

Also, is it embarrassing that I made 2 requests in a day? But then again, how many of y'all are making several requests anonymously🤨

But also, I talk too much!! So additionally, hi, you like jazz? (what's your favourite song this month)

...Atp, you should actually just ignore me.

i love hearing people yap like this lowk lit my soul up a bit like this is so cool of you. you’re epic. 😾

my favourite song this month… ‘nope youre too late i already died’. obsessed with it from the moment it was released last month and after his suicide. literally crazy oh my days, i was so heartbroken </3 rip wifi skeleton. ❤️‍🩹 🕊️

cringe doesn’t exist, i have a fucking yandere blog i genuinely do not judge people at all. PLEASEEE never be shy with requests like i promise you i love hearing the amazing ideas people come up with. and when i tell you waaah this one filled me with joy.

i’m all too pleased to write about an autistic character! …i am… also… autistic! 😂 boo! did the autism scare you! 😂

okay that was genuinely so unfunny it feels like an inside joke but it’s not idk what possessed me to write that oh my days yk that trend where people think autism is all cool and silly, yeah.

on a real note, i received my diagnosis years ago and oh lord 🤦🏾‍♀️. living hell. i’ve become a lot more comfortable being myself and i don’t see it as a negative thing at all. gives me an excuse to use my special interest as a reason for excessive merch and i adore info dumping. autism definitely isn’t the ‘funsies’ that a lot of shitty social media pages try to make it seem like, but i could never see it as anything less than a blessing either. <3

anyways ahahshs corny rant im so tired im deadass gonna crash ill try to have this out tmrw. bonne nuit.💝
