#can i also just say

I also need to talk about my blorbo (scar. Ofc.) so here's my silly thoughts on these two:

Theyre both aroace and awkward as fuck when it comes to showing affection. Scar loved holding hands. Mumbo does too except he's very weird about it and is always very anxious to initiate any hand holding and doesn't know if it's appropriate in the given moment (he's just like me fr)

Mumbo also struggles with social anxiety. Scar struggles with general anxiety. They're both anxious little fucks.

Scar always feels cold and Mumbo is surprisingly warm so Scar loves cuddling with Mumbo. He's like his own personal heater.

That's all for now djfkdkgken

he's so me FRRRR

Mumbo is SO aroace and just incredibly socially anxious, like that man does NOT know how to initiate any physical touches and interactions, he just overthinks everything and just makes himself more nervous (pov a friend just hugged him)

Also!! Yes yes yes Mumbo constantly being warm for some reason?? I've been going INSANE over this idea for so long and GAHHHH his hugs are always one of the warmest, so the hermits who are almost always cold like Scar would 100% just seek out hugs from him if they're feeling down

Which I find silly cause I imagine Mumbo just being🧍while cuddling for the first few times that happens because he?? doesn't know??? what to do???? he's the completely oblivious to affection type guy. He gets used to it tho ofc, you kinda have to when 2 of the people closest to you (Scar and Grian) really enjoy cuddles and sleepovers

Scar, the incredibly affectionate one + Mumbo, the non affectionate one = "Hey he asked for no pickles" type of dynamic

also you bet Mumbo babysits Jellie sometimes and its definitely not because he's always warm and she's a big fan of it

See now I’m getting overconfident. This is Skizz’s miserable attempt at killing Tango. Probably from Skizz’s pov, but maybe Scott’s. I think Etho stayed above water.

This was session 5.

[ID: a minecraft screenshot taken underwater in a warm ocean biome. Tango is swimming out of a hole in the ocean floor. He’s looking up towards and facing the viewer, not in swim mode. He’s wearing an enchanted diamond chestplate and holding a sand block which combined with the darkness of the water is blocking the visibility of his lower armour, making it impossible to tell the material. It’s enchanted, whatever it is. His name is green. The viewer’s shield is visible in the bottom left corner of the image, too. End ID]

so nothing special has really been goin on just was feelin really down physically and emotionally

I think I only mentioned this to a moot but I've been having a lot of numbness and pain in my hands which was just making work h e l l + the usual work life drama which just made me feel worthless lol but I finally went to the doctor nd definitely have carpal tunnel 💀 I'm on an anti inflammatory and need to get some kind of brace to sleep in but just the meds have helped noticeably vvv thankful for that

aside from just how physically demanding my job is my boss has just been on some dumb shit so im trying out part time before throwing in the towel. hoping decreasing my work schedule will help with thw pain + building my routine back and being happier

I'm going to nashville tmrw to see mr peck again at his rodeo I'm taking a break from packing rn lmfao but I'm so excited!!! this has fr been the only thing getting me through this month I'm excited to party and feel a littlw normal again!

Anon confession: You inspire me! Your unabashed love for the stories and characters and art you create makes me want to embrace my own work more fully, and your love for nature and especially bugs makes me want to pay more attention to the world around me!

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

Messaging people for the first time is so hard. What am I supposed to say? Like, "You seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters?" What! Whatever. I will just follow you back and stare at your blog with my big beautiful brown eyes.

EVERY SINGLE DAY there are MILLIONS of characters in their late 20s who get falsely accused of being father figures to teenagers when in reality the description of "weird older cousin" or "step-sibling that moved out before you were born" is 1000000x more apt

The world exists in such a baffling state of simultaneous sex-aversion and sex-hegemony. Every social platform on the internet is trying to banish sex workers to the shadow realm but I can't post a tweet without at least two bots replying P U S S Y I N B I O. People are self-censoring sex to seggs and $3× but every other ad you see is still filled with half-naked women. Rightwingers want queer people arrested for so much as existing in the same postal code as a child and are also drumming up a moral panic about how teenage boys aren't getting laid enough. I feel like I'm losing my mind.

was talking with a friend about how some of dunmeshi fаndom misunderstands kabru's initial feelings towards laios.

to sum up kabru's situation via a self-contained modernized metaphor:

kabru is like a guy who lost his entire family in a highly traumatic car accident. years later he joins a discord server and takes note of laios, another server member who seems interesting, so they start chatting. then laios reveals his special interest and favorite movie of all time is David Cronenberg's Crash (1996), and invites kabru to go watch a demolition derby with him

I feel like Jon is a bit of a rebound…

“People are inherently terrible” no!!! Have you ever seen a child wait for their friend while they tie their shoelaces? Have you ever known someone who would bring hurt squirrels and rabbits and mice to the nearest vet just so it doesn’t suffer? Have you seen someone grieve? Have you ever read something that hit your heart like a freight train? Have you looked at the stars and felt an unexplainable joy? Have you ever baked bread? Have you shared a meal with a friend? Have you not seen it? All the love? All the good? I know it’s hard to see sometimes, I know there’s pain everywhere. But look, there’s a child helping another up after a hard fall. Look, there’s someone giving their umbrella to a stranger. Look, there’s someone admiring the spring flowers. Look, there’s good, there’s good, there’s good. Look!!!!
