oh anyways i know have a decent amt of teens & college aged ppl following me here so just in case no one has told you this - it’s important for you to know that the “freshman fifteen” is just a stupid way society has framed the fact that human bodies are still growing and developing in their young twenties.

you may not gain fifteen pounds from age 18-19 but it’s VERY likely that you WILL be 10-30 pounds (minimum!) heavier than you were at 18 by the time you’re 24. and that is good AND healthy AND damn near unavoidable!!! as a slightly adultier adult (late 20s) i can tell you with absolute certainty that the VAST majority of people gain a decent amount of weight in their early twenties. your weight also tends to redistribute around this time so physically you may look different than you did as a teenager.

all of this is NORMAL and HEALTHY and not anything that you are doing wrong and it’s not a sign you’re making bad lifestyle choices. it’s simply the way human bodies work.

so if you’re in this life stage or just coming out of it and finding that you look different than you used to, that you’ve gained a lot of weight despite not really changing anything about your lifestyle, that your face looks fatter, that your tummy is fuller - none of this is a flaw, none of this is a failure. it’s what human bodies DO. it’s aging. it’s growth. it’s nothing to be ashamed of.

i just know that while i DID hear a lot about the “freshman fifteen”, i didn’t ever hear anyone warn me about this tendency to gain and keep on weight slowly over those college years, and the way that your face shape can change, and it took me a while to stop looking at myself and thinking “how did i do this to myself, what is WRONG with me!” before i looked around me and realized it happened to literally every other person in my life too, that it’s not something i did wrong or needed to be worried or embarrassed about, that it’s just something human bodies do.

anyways here’s a picture of my sister and i ages 17 & 19 vs aged 27 & 29 for posterity. you don’t stop growing & changing just because you exit puberty and anyone who says you do is trying to sell you something.

it's so so weird.

I got to see some ppl that I love very dearly yesterday. I haven't been able to see them for around 6 months. I felt isolated and sad for a while because of it. I thought I was finding some joy with some new friends. I kept feeling like things with my mom are a lot better. that maybe all the terrible shit that she did to me was actually my fault.

but then I go see these people, who are more family then friends at this point. it feels like sunshine has split me open. the almost forgotten but familiar feeling of love settles back into my bones. it feels like Ive come up for air for the first time in months. I love them. they love me.

and it's weird. bc they so so clearly care for me. I can see it in the way they visibly soften in my presence. in the way they know that my brain tends to be silly goofy, but they love it bc that's just how I am. in the way they let me click right back into the spot I left. in the way they left that spot open for me in the first place.

and I can just see it in the little things they do. they want me to be doing better. they want me to take care of myself. they want me to feel safe and joyful. they love me, to say it simply.

and it puts everything back into perspective. my mom is a fucked up person and it's not my fault. I can't fill the missing gaps they left with superficial friends I just recently made. I love them. they love me.

they showed me what it's like to be cared for, to be loved.

I miss them.

Admiral ZEX (Star Control 2): Textually queer (is a man who is always interested in the always-male player character), distinctive speech pattern, hints of sadbrain, antagonistic, tall (VUX average over 6 feet tall iirc)

Ruby Gauntlet Tyrant (A Raving Loon’s Exalted: Crimes of Nature AP): textually queer (lunar mate and boyfriend is bear^2, writer called him gay on-screen), distinctive speech pattern, explicitly severe case of sadbrain, antagonistic, tall (described as towering over a party that included an 8 foot tall himbo—this bit got retconned but he's still supposed to be very tall)

Zenos yae Galvus (FF14): implicitly queer (you can argue if it's romantic but he becomes obsessed with the Warrior of Light regardless of gender and his speech at the end of 4.0 is Horny On Main for both masc and fem WoLs), distinctive speech pattern, explicitly neurodivergent (read The Hunt Begins) and implicitly depressed, antagonistic, tall

In conclusion: god my brainworms need better taste in men

Asshats on social media for the past few years: Covid is just a flu; you'll be fine.

Me; currently in hospital after recovering from covid but long covid triggering one of the most intense and damaging seizures in my life:

Fuck everyone who down played it.

Fuck everyone who was anti-vax.

Fuck everyone who ignored the seriousness of this disease.

Fuck everyone who went out and partied while the rest of us quarantined for safety.

Fuck everyone who encouraged covid positive people to just go out anyway.

Fuck everyone who decided to ignore mask mandates.

Fuck everyone who spat and coughed and ignored social distance to be petty and selfish.

I caught this getting groceries bc a woman decided to cough on me for wearing a mask, recovered from it with a post inflammatory condition and almost lost my vision and ability to speak from a seizure because of the impacts of long covid.

Fuck everyone of you who decided no one else's lives mattered but your social life. You've killed and destroyed lives with your recklessness and heartlessness and I hope the full impact of your actions lives on your consciousness every day of your lives.

Happy New Year! My yearly Davesprite is here to usher in 2024... it's been a quite the 2023! This also marks 10 years since I started this tradition... yippee!!!

I made the piece this year listening to @toontitsgoopbrain's davesprite tracks (give them a listen they're really good!)

2023 has been on the quieter side for me, nonetheless I'm overwhelmed by the support I've had during it anyways. Thanks to everyone who stuck around!

last night i got home kind of tipsy and very much in tears and my mother told me the force you exert to keep someone in your life is proportional to the force with which they will leave your life. if you have to fight tooth and claw to keep them, their leaving will be just as hard, just as harsh, and just as definite.
