rereading the nuca pink doujin and seeing yakumo tear himself apart re: his snake form vs his human form
all this agony and self-doubt and silent suffering and fear of rejection like "if i looked less human would u hate me" , "if u saw me in my true form wouldn't that be horrible. terrifying. disgusting" , "if i admitted i want to swallow you whole would you think worse of me"
and i imagine him asking something like this to the crowd of clan members , who are , undeniably,, a group of Kinky Fuckers
they all smile with the serenity and carefully masked excitement of a horny olivine. masterful beautiful reassuring expressions (errr..... masked to different degrees depending on the clan member)

Living with Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors
Me: *Is super stressed over life.*
Trichotillomania: Time to pull some hair! C'mon. You won't even notice you're doing it. It'll make you feel better.
Me: NO. *Spends 4 days putting hair in a mini twist protective style* There.
Dermatillomania: Hey. Your hands are free. And restless. And dry... Pick your skin. Bleed. Bleed.
Me: Stop! *Starts up a new crochet project to keep hands busy.* Ok cool.
Onychophagia: Hi hi. Your nails are.... perfect biting length... you should do that.
Me: Noooooooooooo *Paints nails.*
Dermatillomania: Oh look, you got some nail polish on your skin. Pick it off... now pick some more...

this is extremely late but rarepair of rose and aurien simply because of rose’s like for uniqueness and dislike for plainness, and, honestly all you need to do is look at aurien’s design to see why it’s a rarepair haha
Slow-burn rairpair
A lot of roses rarepairs involve Rose spending time with someone a lot and falling in love with their personality, then having to quickly reconcile all their many issues.
Another "get over it Rose" character arc.
I love myself romance that involves a lot of drama at first :D
Anyway I think it's cute, too yappers in a relationship together? These two do not stop talking ever at least one of them has their mouth open. Would probably find Auriens more concerning traits pretty normal, doesn't know what love is supposed to look like either so all they can do is assume Aurien knows what they're doing because they sure don't.
Real okay with physical affection, constantly wants to give other people lots of physical affection but represses it a whole lot (they think "weirdo, why do you want to touch people so badly >:("<yikes moment) So maybe spending time with Aurien would slowly make them more touchy, like exposure therapy.

first thing: people won't know that you're upset with them and why you're upset with them if you don't tell them.
second thing (very controversial): politicians are still technically people.
third thing: in the USA you can contact politicians about stuff. it's very easy actually.
okay! now synthesize the information.

the fact that we're a year out from a major election year in the United States and instead of encouraging people to vote for their local and state elections I'm already seeing Dems on socials lecturing about "not expecting perfection" and "lesser of two evils" during a time where there is widespread objection to Biden and crew literally funding and supporting Israel's genocide of Gaza is just
ah yes, damn youths and their inability to compromise on silly non-issues of *checks notes* actively supporting and financing genocide

what they don't tell you about university is you'll feel so fucking free & you can walk outside and the weather's always more tolerable here than it is back at home & you'll see kids outside and think you're the toughest shit in the world and yet they're somehow tougher & you'll start paying way more attention to the color of rivers because water's so much murkier back where you're from & the words of your halfway dialect jump out more because everyone's a northerner and if nobody's around to say i reckon to you then you've gotta say it yourself & your people are all sober & your people are all not & the songs you listen to solely exist to make you feel like a bad bitch who's not about to kill themself & you watch shitty movies and then read two papers but still make it in time for breakfast & people cold call for some fucking reason to ask you where to catch the bus & there's always a game happening on the field with people you don't give a fuck about & you don't remember what it's actually like to be loved but if you try hard enough to be liked maybe you'll forget the absence & you break up with the only person who made you feel safe and don't give a single shit & your professor is like your dad but at least he uses the right pronouns & the kind boy is maybe a kind boy to everyone but you & you're free like the birds that fly in flocks & shit your carbon footprint's fucked with all the public transport & at least you're going somewhere & at least people talk to you & you're never gonna go back to when you were safe and loved with her hand running through your hair and your dad picking you up while old rock plays on the radio.
but there's a dog somewhere on campus & at least the voice on the metro seems to like you & if you take a walk late at night with the apple you grabbed from the dining hall, you'll feel a little bit like a criminal and all the way incomplete.

curious, as I was looking at cars today and an 'upgrade' option for one included faux leather on the seats and I don't think I managed not to pull a face. the dealer was super surprised at my dislike of this option (I did say 'ah, I don't really like that'), but my dad reassured me afterwards that he hates them so much too, as does his gf
but the fact that the guy who sells cars to lossa people seemed to think *not* liking the leather option was weird... I wonder...
