[elialys]

today's my birthday, and i feel like treating myself with a new phone, despite being pretty poor, but i'm also old and YOLO

^ my bank account watching me about to make another poor decision

Okay, but Halsin, Jaheira, Minthara, and Astarion all taking one look at an Elf dark urge and immediately going "I can influence that"

So all 4 of the older Elves in the party end up being like a divorced couple that can't agree on how to raise their kid.

todays award for 'man what the fuck' goes to reddit for making me see pr0/-ship discourse in goddamn 2023. thought we were past that but i guess not

there will be moms who's fav activity is waking up in a rage walking to the kitchen and screaming at you for it being dirty (fair ig) and then not letting you leave the kitchen till they do to keep your in their sights so you stay cleaning (not fair you're literally giving me tasks that i need to leave the room to complete, not letting me leave the room and then getting mad when i don't complete them) and then they go back 2 sleep like nothing happened and will pretend this didnt happen and scream again if u even suggest it

when I was a little kid people used to always say I was "4 going on 40". now I feel more like I'm 24 going on 84

The irony that is my loan payments coming out to exactly $666 a month. Number of the beast indeed

[kumashire]

I try to be Good and Strong and Independent Etc. and mind my business and stay in my lane and focus on improving myself and stay busy with my Independent hobbies but I don't think anyone likes to feel unloved and annoying all the time. I think that would start to wear on anyone a bit

Not to be a nerd but I positively crushed my Pokémon school midterms 😌

Reclaiming lies in turning something harmful into something good in order to limit the damages and when people are looking for the main source can't find it . It's damage control , it's to make sure something harmful is less damaging . If at 19 you can't understand that I encourage you to block the content you don't agree with especially since you're vitriolic rude and unnecessarily mean to minors . If you can't be a basic polite human don't interact with others

i’m sorry i can’t get over “vitriolic rude and unnecessarily mean to minors”

“stop making fanart of a hategroup webcomic” ummmm im literally neurodivergent and a minor? lol

[pa-pa-plasma]

okay actually i do hate it when people misunderstand bringing people's age up in an argument. no, i'm not saying "you're 35" to mean "once you turn 18, you're no longer allowed to be a fan of things," i'm saying "you're 35 & are acting like an ipad baby who was told to read a book for the first time." hope this helps

the thing about your parents and their siblings is that they are siblings first and adults second

Something i really hate about gen Z queers is that they’re more worried about what a queer person can or can’t do, than whether or not that person is happy

“Can a genderfluid person identify as lesbian even when they’re male? Can you identify as bi and gay? Are abrosexuals valid?” And the response is always people giving super specific explanations on who can/can’t identify as xyz, what is/isn’t “valid”, like if you don’t follow a list of rules to be a “good queer” you deserve to be treated like shit. I rarely see someone saying “If this is how they feel and they’re happy, then good for them” and when i do, it’s almost never a younger queer saying it

The whole point of fighting for lgbt rights is letting people be themselves without being shamed for not fitting in the cis/straight boxes, not turning lgbt identities into new strict boxes and shitting on anyone who enters the “wrong box”. People aren’t categories, they’re people

TLDR:

Edit: the image is a joke + i’m not saying you’re a horrible person just because you used to act like that when you were 12, but i do think people who harass someone because of their identity are horrible people + i shouldn’t have said just gen z queers because there are grown ass adults pushing 30 who act like that. And the image is a joke

edit 2, last thing that i should have clarified but forgor: I am gen z and i’m talking about my personal experience. I’m not like, a 35 year old talking shit about kids, i am gen z and i rarely feel 100% safe around queer people my age. I’ve met people irl who were assholes at 14, and then years later they’re adults and still act the exact same way

I know there are 30, 40, etc year olds who act like that, but in my experience this kind of behavior is more common and normalized among gen z, not just online but also irl

i think that the use of first person present tense should be strictly outlawed in fiction writing until authors can be properly vetted & certified for it by a rigorous review board. this is not a joke
