old German lady gave me acupuncture today

she lifted up my shirt, saw my top surgery scars, and immediately went "WHOA! What caused THIS?"

my fellow comrades, it took every atom of my strength not to just say the funniest lie I could think of on the spot.

If you see someone with a really bad fandom take, I’m begging you to open your emails and write a strongly worded missive to your local government official about something bad happening in your community or country.

If you’re in Canada you could email a rep about concerns about Elon musk interfering in our next federal election.

If you’re in the US the list is endless.

If you’re in the UK you could email about trans health care.

If you’re in Australia, what about dental care in Medicare?

If you’re in Europe, look into some EU initiatives of particular concern. Perhaps something to do with nature and biodiversity? Idk

Just today I emailed my local mla about coal mining in the Rocky Mountains and tomorrow I’m going to pick something else and do it again

hear me out.....

Sander Bugs...... it's them but it's bugs..............

does anyone share my vision-

im not the best at drawing insects, so in case it's hard to tell: Virgil is a spider, Roman is a butterfly, Remus is a moth, Logan is an ant, Janus is a wasp and Patton is a bee.

(click the thingy if you'd like to indulge me in more details lmao)

Virgil, the spider: he already has spiders motifs. Also, spider webs can work as a metaphor for falling down an anxiety spiral (one step down a slippery slope and you're unable to get out).

Roman, the butterfly: the (mostly agreed upon) prettiest bug, for the prettiest boy in the party™. They're not overly romanticized in media for nothing lol. And of course, he's a "monarch butterfly".

Remus, the moth: "like moths to a flame" that represents self-destructive behaviour (unable to go against a desire that ultimately harms you, and could be your doom). Also, he shares the buttlerfly similarity with Roman. Plus he's a nuisance to your wardrobe

Janus, the wasp: they can sting without dying, having more of a defense purpose. Acting as Thomas' self-preservation, he acts like a last line of defense. And the yellow and black color scheme suits him nicely.

Logan, the ant: they're hard-working, resourceful and persevering. Those are pretty much words that easily describe Logan as well. And if anyone would be able to carry two times his own weight, it would be him (?)

Design fun fact: his extra set of arms are retractable! He uses them when he needs and extra pair of hands (lmao). Patton can do this too

Patton, the bee: hard-working too, but more centered in providing for others: he provides the others with affection and dinner (lol). He's sweet as honey. Their existence is helpful to the environment, and Patton's existence is helpful to my mental health /hj

i'd love to hear your own interpretations or even assign them different bugs !!! dont be shy

Enemies to lovers, but I want them to actually hate each other and think the other is ugly

Like I need them to DISPISE one another. I need them to trash-talk each other. I need them to find the other person REPULSIVE in every which way

And I don't want them to get together through a series of wacky events. no. That's boring

I want them to actively seek each other out, because they're hatred is so extreme that they wanna see the other person at their LOWEST. I want them to CRAVE their enemies' downfall so hard that they take time out of their day to sabotage them

And fuck you, I don't want them to COMFORT each other when at their most vulnerable. I want them to be UNCOMFORTABLE. I want them to sit in a room, both feeling real vulnerable, actively bitching to each other instead

and THAT. That's what gets them together. Them realizing that their hatred for each other is what's keeping their heads above the water. Their motivation to dislike each other is the reason they, themselves are achieving such high goals and potential (Yes this is a rival to lovers too, fuck you again)

And no, no I do not want them to have steamy hate sex. That's PREDICTABLE. I still want them to be repulsed by each other. No no, I want them to realize "Why are we even fighting?" because it's been so long that neither of them even remembers what started it all. And then, I want them to actively drift apart. To silently agree to just ignore each other because they're mature enough to realize what they were doing was pointless.

AND THEN. THEN I want them to crave each other again. I want them to miss the passion they had for each other, because no one else dedicated themselves like their enemy did. No one was as committed and there for them as their enemy. And I need that to RUIN them for everyone else as they go through life.

And it's only years later, when both of them have matured and grown as people, that they FINALLY meet again under different circumstances, having grown different perspectives, and yet still hold that same passion. And it HAS to be AWKWARD at first. It has to be weird and strange

Because that's not their enemy anymore. They're a stranger. A stranger whom they never noticed has qualities they like. And then the REAL slow burn happens as they navigate how to act without that burning hate

just a burning something that both of them are too up in their own ass to unpack

And that. THAT is my enemies to lovers

I didn't ask if it made sense to keep going. I said I'm going to kick your twisted evil ass.

Things I learned from today’s “Hear Me Out” Sanders Sides video:

-Patton likes squishy huggable guys

-Logan is still king of lesbians, and as an ace lesbian was very much making me feel seen

-Virgil flat out refused to come out of his room when Roman pitched this idea to him

-Roman might be a furry
