#he starts catching Feelings for me

me, blissfully unaware that this specific song is going to throw me full-tilt into an imaginary relationship with a toxic, evil, manipulative, abusive pimp

me, seconds later

You know what? You know what I think?

I think that if we lived as we were meant to, in larger intimate ("extended family") groups and with more shared labor and time to do it (UBI NOW) people like me would not feel so useless and burdensome because there would be people around to help and to do what neurodivergent people can't while making valuable space for the neurodivergent to do what they ARE good at.

The way we live right now, all right, the way we live right now forces units of two adults to be able to do EVERYTHING or PAY to have someone come do it for them. I have to do the housework. I have to do it! But I am having to do a million different things and most of them I am not good at. I suck at them.

I wouldn't feel like shit, okay, if I had more than one other person around who was not a child and who could do the things I can't, like do the yard and cook and do repairs and basic maintenance; and someone else to split everything else that I like but is too much for me. It would free me to do what I am good at and enjoy. Cleaning, as in the sink and toilet, the windows, the blinds. Taking out trash. Folding, hanging, and sorting laundry.

But because all the shit I can do often relies on other shit being done first, and I can't do or have trouble doing those things, the shit I can do often can't be done. And even the shit I can do, I can't do ALL of it. So I can't keep up, and things get very bad.

We aren't meant to live like this. We are not meant to live like this.

That thought hurts so much because being able to flee the birth family is integral to survival for so many people. I'm so afraid that living in larger family groups would create more opportunities for, say, queer kids to be isolated, rejected, bullied, and abused. But if we gave people enough money to survive, and stopped considering children the property of their parents with no system in place to help them escape bad situations except a system that is often just as bad, just different.

I'm aware that communes and collectives aren't all that successful and are kind of a joke. I don't mean that. I mean a fundamental shift to multigenerational families where taking in "strays" (which my family did) is also normalized so people escaping abuse into existing households was accepted, with these families centered in maybe a couple of different larger residences so not everyone has to buy and maintain their own fucking washing machine and vacuum cleaner, and so people can benefit from large group meals that yield leftovers, and so child and elder care can also be centralized.

Then disabled people and the neurodivergent and sick and injured people, and pregnant people, and grieving people, would not have to either labor through all those stressors or consign themselves to living off an unlivable pittance or being put under legal guardianship.

I'm not saying anything new. People live like this in other parts of the world and maybe it sucks and I am wrong. But I'm just really mad right now because I can either do laundry or clean the sink but not both, and I really think we could improve society somewhat by making it so I did not have to choose one without sacrificing the other.

I know the decision to have Julian's parents have him augmented was made on the fly but imo its pretty obvious from early on that Julian has Family Issues because he avoids talking about his family like the plague and I think they should've incorporated this into the Julian and Sisko dynamic right from early on because I think it would've made for some really compelling stories and moments and could've set up a REALLY interesting Julian and Jake dynamic which they kinda started to do but never fully went for

Steve has to wear jeans all summer, even on the hottest days when all he wants is to wear shorts, because Eddie keeps biting his legs (mostly his thighs). Honestly, he’d never admit it, but he doesn’t mind the biting—maybe even likes it—it’s just that sometimes Eddie leaves bite marks and they’re getting hard to explain

(This starts before they get together by the way)

Everyone believing Alex in season three makes me feel so many things because ever since Ian died no one had believed him without proof. Even Jack and Tom took convincing in both season one and two before they believed him.

And in season three after he gets manipulated by Scorpia and is about to fall off the deep end, his friends, and Jack, and the department believe in him. And it just breaks my heart how he didn't believe them first because in the past when he came to them for help he always had to prove he was telling the truth but after Scorpia they don't even need to know what happened to believe him.

Fourteen Days of MHA | 6/14: Minor Character

Monoma takes Ibara’s loss in the tournament worse than Ibara does.

He doesn’t blame her, which is a relief, because Itsuka has been babysitting his nonsense all day and that might be her breaking point, and she’s pretty sure the principal wouldn’t appreciate it if 1-B started their own mini-tournament in the stands. But he is visibly stricken when Iida Tenya propels Ibara out of bounds, and with her, 1-B’s hopes of even making it onto their first year Sports Festival podium.

It’s tough, but at least 1-B put up a good fight. They had their moments, too—Ibara’s first match, for one, and Tetsutetsu’s somewhat-surreal draw with a student from 1-A who has almost exactly the same quirk. Tetsutetsu had been weirdly upset when he first found out about Kirishima’s power, but had cheered up a little when Itsuka pointed out that his quirk was so good, UA wanted two of them in the hero course in the same year.

By the time they return to their homeroom for dismissal, Tetsutetsu has made a new friend, Ibara has been consoled, and Monoma has mostly recovered from his bottomless despair and is frowning thoughtfully at the chalkboard in a manner that appears innocent enough, but probably promises some new 1-A-related machinations in their class’s future. Then again, who knows. Maybe their defeat at the Sports Festival and watching Bakugou Katsuki destroy half an arena will be enough to get him to back down.

It surprises her when Kan calls Monoma back as the rest of 1-B files out the door. She and Tetsutetsu wait for him at the threshold out of one part solidarity, two parts plain nosiness.

Vlad King places his broad hand on Monoma’s shoulder, and Itsuka prepares for whatever wise, thought-provoking, character growth-inspiring advice a pro hero and teacher at one of the most prestigious schools in the country will give them.

“Don’t worry,” he says, very seriously. “We will get them next time.

Damn it.

Actually, Guzman is his spanish name.

OH YEAH some other folks pointed that out too, makes sense since it's an irl Spanish name (probably why I see it around a lot!) 😳

(normally it's a surname, I've only seen it used as a first name once in a blue moon -- but also in the pokemon world it's pretty clear that naming conventions aren't the same lol)

[saitamastamaticsoup]

Not to be dramatic but since hiori is blasian in canon I need black x readers asap🗣️ like we are DEF not getting any cultural background on this kid (because they just slid it in there like we weren’t gonna recognize in the first place)not that we have any background on any of these children’s parents but I think he should explain how he feels being mixed in Japan because it’s just really funny having these two in the exact same anime, and they are both black 

This is ABSOLUTELY hilarious 😭

Edit: so I’ve noticed a pattern of EVERY character looking like their mother and barely sharing any resemblance to their fathers so ig he gets a pass for being pale BUT there’s even more melaninated characters so let’s give him some sun too!!🥺

Respectfully; come the fuck on
