a talking point i often see when defending the consumption of dark content is that it’s a coping mechanism for those with trauma which is very valid and true but i also want to make this abundantly clear: you can like dark content for no reason. you can enjoy fucked up shit in fiction because it’s enjoyable and entertaining. trauma is not required as a ticket for entry. enjoy your dark content bc it’s fun and sexy and don’t let anyone take that away from you

Hey, take it from someone creeping towards 40:

Ignore the fun police.

If you like it, order your steak well done. Get your bagel toasted with jam and butter. Put ice in your scotch and ketchup on your hotdog. Get red wine with fish and white with steak. Who cares?

If you want to, listen to pop music. Watch blockbuster popcorn flicks. Read dime store novels. Enjoy them.

Dye your hair or cut it off. Paint your fingernails blue. Wear whatever the fuck you want on your own time (ie, when not at a job or school or whatever where you can get penalized for breaking rules) as long as you aren’t like welding or shoveling snow.

Anyone who tries to tell you you’re wrong? Say “okay” and go back to what you were doing. You’re not hurting them by enjoying yourself or having things the way you like them.

There are no caveats or addendums to this. No “but what about x?” Nah. You’re allowed the things you like. You don’t have to justify your taste or apologize for it if it’s not hurting anyone.

And likewise, let other people live their lives. We’re all dead in the long run, so tend your own garden before you become fertilizer in it.

Shout out to the people who never had a safe place. Who didn’t have a before trauma. Who were loved but not protected. Who were collateral damage in someone else’s breakdown. Who got fucked up so young that they’ll never know who they could have been.

Shout out to people who’ve never felt safe. I hope you do someday.

I’m at a phase in my life where I go very long stints of time between drawing anything and I’m always afraid, when I pick it back up again, that I’m so out of practice that I’m not going to be able to do it anymore. But it’s always there when I try again, my hand works the right way, the pencil makes the same marks it always has, and it’s always just this quiet relief that I haven’t lost it yet

I've finally decided to contribute to the COD fandom and post some brainrot that wouldn't quit pestering me until I wrote it down. So for your viewing pleasure, I present: The 141 at the nail salon💅

Soap would be the kind to hardly sit still during a pedicure because he’s so damn ticklish. You’re lucky if you can even get the rough edges of his toenails smoothed with a file without him flinching or jerking his feet. And you best have good reflexes when you start filing his calloused heels because the last tech that worked on him accidentally got kicked in the chin by his size twelves. He felt so bad about it he tipped them three times the amount he usually would and bought lunch for the whole salon. Would definitely get polish applied if he’s on leave. Either black or some other dark color. Maybe his favorite football team’s colors if they’re doing well. Wouldn’t get manicures though. He needs those callouses on his hands for the gym, he’s worked hard to get them that way. Plus if his nails get too long, or he gets a hangnail, why does he need nail clipper when it's just easier to bite them off? 

Gaz likes to have his nails done on the regular if he can since military life can be so hard on them. His mother took him along with her to the nail salon when he was a boy when she’d get her nails done. It wasn’t too long after that he started having his done too. At first it was a way to whittle at the boredom of waiting for her before he started to realize he actually enjoyed it. And you best believe every tech in the salon clamors for a chance to work with him when he comes waltzing in for an appointment. Those big brown eyes along with his handsome features and charming personality made him a salon favorite unsurprisingly. Somehow always manages to make his tech blush even if he doesn’t say a word. Gets both manicures and pedicures, preferring to have his nails buffed to a nice shine. 

Price maybe goes to have his feet worked on once every few months or so. He’s just too busy to make regular appointments. But on the occasions he does make it in, he isn’t very talkative. Preferring to bring a book with him to read while his tech does their thing. His position as Captain always has his thoughts going practically 24/7, so it’s nice to just let himself get lost in that novel that’s been on his to-be-read list for months now. Although he’s been known to fall asleep during the massage portion of his service and his tech always makes sure to give him an extra few minutes. He’s always polite and is a great tipper so they don’t mind spending the extra time on him. Doesn’t bother with manicures though. He knows he’ll just rough them up again anyway so what’s the point?

Ghost has never set foot inside a nail salon. Not because he thinks it’s “unmanly” or some other toxic shit like that. Why would he have someone else do it when he does the job just fine himself? Plus whenever he’d walk by a salon in the past, they always seemed to be too crowded and noisy for his tastes. By some miracle, his feet never have callouses and are always soft no matter what. Also mother nature decided to bless him with practically no cuticles so he’s never had to worry about that.
