he says i hate everyone except you and that is addictive and that is kind of romantic and beautiful because you're young and you're kind of a sarcastic asshole too and you don't like bad boys, per say, but you don't really like good ones either. and you like that you were the exception, it felt like winning.
except life is not a romance book, and he was kind of being honest. he doesn't learn to be nice to your friends. he only tolerates your family. you have to beg him to come with you to birthday parties, he complains the whole time. you want to go on a date but - people are often there, wherever you're going. he's just so angry. about everything, is the thing. in the romance book, doesn't he eventually soften? can't you teach him, through your own sense of whimsy and comfort?
at first - you know introverts often need smaller friend groups, and honestly, you're fine staying at home too. you like the small, tidy life you occupy. you're not going to punish him for his personality type.
except: he really does hate everyone but you. which means he doesn't get along with his therapist. which means he has no one to talk to except for you. which means you take care of him constantly, since he otherwise has no one. which means you sometimes have to apologize for him. which means he keeps you home from seeing your friends because he hates them. you're the single exception.
about a decade from this experience, you'll type into google: how to know if a relationship is codependent.
he wraps an arm around you. i hate everyone except you. these days, you're learning what he's actually confessing is i have very little practice being kind.

...so now that grandfest is over and the results were revealed am i allowed to say that some of y'all were such dicks to team present over their team choice for NO good reason ever since grandfest was revealed or am i going to get mauled for being right.
anyways congrats to the team past members who weren't assholes about their team choice and those team past members only every match against you guys made me feel like i was crawling in the trenches and it's very impressive 👍

I love how you completely changed everyone’s wardrobe for the Beach Episode, save for gorgug’s hoodie (do they take it in the water?) do you wanna talk about the outfit choices at all?
I mean there's not a lot to talk about there I think? I'm a big fashion-focused character design artist, I'll say that, but a lot of that I can't really translate into words sadly... there are just certain character-specific silhouettes that once u've picked out u can hang onto to give them new clothes and it'll usually be good that's kinda how I do it. I fully see gorgug going Anywhere in that hoodie tho I think by this point babygirl's like I have a theory it's indestructible and I intend to test it

procastinating at work but here's my philosophy for today: it's okay to hate a behavior in someone else but also understand that this behavior does not make them a bad person. like i HATE when i'm venting or talking about a serious problem i have and then the person i'm talking to starts trying to relate by talking about a similar experience they've had. like absolutely hate it. make me feel like the focus is being taken off me and it genuinely is in some ways, regardless of your intent. yeah, i understand that's your way of trying to comfort me -- but that's not the way i need or want to be comforted, and that's what matters in a situation where i'm coming to you to be helped.
and that's okay! like. no one is in the wrong here unless i have explicitly asked you to support me in a different way and you're intentionally refusing, or if i lash out at you when i could just disengage. it just means you're not a person i should go to for help when talking about my problems. we can still be friends, you and i can probably support each other in different ways, but we're just incompatible in this regard. and that's like....okay. it's okay to be incompatible with people.

so so sad about lando today in the sprint 💔 and his bet about ferrari winning by 30s... gorl stop i'm trying to defend that championship mentality dawg in you 😭 but saying that i hope someone (oscar) gave him a hug
sghdjd ok perhaps controversially going to say that idt lando is an unsubstantiatedly self-flagellative dude? most of his public low moments come from feeling solely responsible for a poor showing relative to the performance ceiling of the car/team that weekend. if we alr suck he's not going to be like omg it's MY fault we suck u kno... and seeing how saturday shook out (13s gap to P2 🥲)...... we were never going to convert that win even if bro hadn't bottled lap 1. sad but true
the way i read the ferrari bet line was him being pleasantly surprised with how well we did on a track ill-suited to our car. unfortch managing one's expectations is merely a muscle you develop by virtue of being a mclaren driver (and by extension a mclaren fan 😔). it is what it is !
also Much can be said about the correlation of dawg & mentality with wdc hopes but in the interest of being brief! fast, reliable, driveable car + competent strat dept + manageable politics to performance ratio + scrub teammate...... it's HARD to round up all the tangibles that amount to a gainful title bid. while certainly necessary and useful, dawg alone does not a champion make. and anyways lando has enough of it over the net course of a season

the idea that Killer is really flirtatious but also super easily flustered
like when in stage 2 he’ll say the most inappropriate, sexual, disgusting thing but then if he’s in stage 1 and Color holds his hand this man is blushing and giggling and he can’t even respond. and like in stage 2 he’s trying to get a reaction bc he can’t feel emotions so he’s like kinda living vicariously through the others. and in stage 1 every little experience feels new and overwhelming
idk this made more sense in my head

contrary to popular belief it's not that hard to be a lesbian around straight women talking abt how they're into conventionally attractive men because ur not really expected to genuinely find them hot; even if ur not attracted to them u can say "yeah that's what u call hot for men". but really. it's hard around queer people talking about dilfs or their "hear me out" weird looking guy crushes. being around a bunch of people talking abt how much they love dilfs is truly isolating bc it takes a true man liker to love dilfs and weird guys.... which i cannot hear u out on but i wish u guys the best
