I guess that's back to zero days without an accident in the lab..

I don't think Butter Roll would be so chill about losing countless hours of research and expensive equipment because of Matcha Cookie blowing up the lab if he didn't have other cookies watching.

Ooooh yeah! Things are starting to come together! I tried to design this based off the Lava Reef Zone but it kinda ended up looking more like Ecco. I need to add some checkerboard patterns in there somewhere to make it look more Sonicy.

Part of autonomy and body neutrality is accepting nonjudgmentally that people will do things that aren't good for their bodies, getting over the fact that many people will do those things on purpose and it is never your business nor your job to fix it. Yes promote the idea that we don't need to have cosmetic procedures done and push for people to examine their relationships with themselves. Yes advocate for people being fully informed of the risks of drastic weight loss and push for people to practice harm reduction if they plan to lose weight. But at the end of the day, what a person does with their own body is always their own decision and they should have every right to do that without a lecture (or people trying to interfere and stop them). You're not "body positive" if you get aggressive towards people who diet, have work done, or intentionally modify their bodies in other ways. You're not better than people who pressure others to lose weight etc. Ultimately you have to get over the fact that what people do with themselves isn't up to you.

You cannot live alone on the fantasies you feed to your mind, eventually you have to touch your life for real, assess and analyze your habits, understand your character, try not to hate yourself for your character as it was shaped when you were very young by circumstances outside of you, and begin learning how to cope with your character, how to build habits that work for you, finish small projects, finish big projects, expose yourself to more uncomfortable situations, assess why you want to leave that friendship before you leave it, raise your anxiety levels on purpose, so that you can grow, raise your work load on purpose, so that you can grow, so that you can build resilience, so that your life expands, and can be experienced by you in full and in reality

bn thinkin abt KTE stuff

i got into the BH and KTE in general thru fandom when i was like, 15? the space back then was very adult-oriented (despite being actively populated by many minors!) and most of the stuff was so overtly problematic its actually impossible to read without wincing

it took me a long time to transition away from the BH in my own fan-canon bc they were a cornerstone of my interest in sonic for years. when i began rping privately, i struggled to contextualise the BH existing outside of pndrs crappy writing. thats always been the problem. i knew all my time of writing those canon characters that i was 'writing around' the more glaring issues with pndrs canon - trying to make them more coherent and sensical. thats one thing with smaller issues like characterisation or like particular events, but the whole thing falls apart when u try and remove it from the shitty foundation pndrs laid under it. it really just doesnt work.

soon after i tried to incorporate the bh into my own canon i found myself simply not paying attention to anyone above athair. so they were scrapped. this was easy bc i scrapped the dark legion as well, which just removes much of the point those older guardians served anyway. reworking the remaining characters is mandatory at that point because of the significant changes to their setting and history!

thats why i so strongly dissociate my guardian ocs from all of that - besides the stuff with athair opting out of the guardian post and his son taking it up in future, none of the pndrs stuff has survived as far as i see it. before the nocturnus burst onto the scene in our canon, the guardian post was more ceremonial than anything else. there wasnt any direct threat to the emerald until robotnik's war. so the guardians werent a fraction of as strong as knuckles is, and largely served a diplomatic purpose. i absolutely do not see my ocs as interchangable with pndrs stuff or other BH renditions at all

there's been a surge in BH related fandom seemingly in the past five yrs, which i would have once loved. but now i actually block those accounts, because seeing that stuff elicits a weird feeling in me. i would never have thought i'd feel this way, and im actually so glad that interest in the BH was minimal back before i changed things for our canon, bc otherwise i would never have developed my ocs as they stand and would still be struggling to write around pndrs plot holes 🫥
