gnarpy saying "gnarp" to refer to xyr species implies that their name in xyr society would be the equivalent of "humany" in ours

can we normalize the idea of being inspired by your friends without turning into "you're copying me"? like, i like how my friends started drawing stars the same way that i do, i like how they're sending me miffy memes ever since i introduced it to them. not everything needs to be like "your brand" or "your aesthetic" just let yourself live and try out new experiences without feeling shame around it...

This is a genuine question I have: If byler aren't meant to be something more than just friends/best friends, why are they the only two of the og party that have super intimate, romantically coded scenes together? Lucas and Dustin never have those moments, nor do Lucas and Mike/ Will, or Dustin and Mike/Will, etc. It's only Mike and Will.

I know that people will say, ‘Because Will is the one that is in love with Mike.’ But Mike is framed in these scenes the same way. He's not super aloof or confused about the way Will feels. They're connected in these scenes. They're expressing similar emotion in different ways. It's not "brotherly" nor is it "strictly friendship".

It's More.

Realizing that my fawning and people pleasing really only hurts me in the end because now nobody, including me knows who I am and if somebody does something wrong and I dismiss it it's my fault that I didn't communicate that I had a problem with it

Yknow what's fucked? There is SO much time between the Winter Solstice (longest night) and the Summer Solstice (longest day) and yet almost no time at all between the summer and the next winter solstice IM SICK WHAT DO YOU MEAN ITS TAKEN 8 MONTHS TO GET GOOD WEATHER AND THE LONGEST DAY BUT IN ANOTHER THREE OR FOUR MONTHS ITS GONNA BE DARK AND FUCKING MISERABLE AGAIN?!?!?

Especially as someone with (potentially) Seasonal Affective Disorder it fucking SUCKS I love summer I live for those few months of good weather and putting my windows down when I drive and not having to wear hoodies all the time what the fuck do you mean it's taken almost 3/4 of the year to get here and in another 1/4 we're back to being depressed and bedbound?!??!

Do you guys think that Roman is acting this way because of what happen with the whole betrayal thing from Seth back in the shield days?

I know they touched on it a bit during his feud with Seth. Could be the root cause.

I am a Serious Author but sometimes I want to write fanfiction again or post a serial romance novel on wattpad for the hell of it. even if no one read it I think it would be a good time

I think one of the weirdest parts about being in the obey me fandom is how we all have like the same HC and ideas for each character. Like I stg I’m not a copycat, I had the exact same idea before I even saw your post. 

[beykhabarr]

Is it possible to be in love with someone, but like, not romantically? Like to think someone is your soulmate but the thought of being anything more than what you are right now is repulsive,like there's a line you must not cross or everything would turn from pure glee into disgust?

isee a lot of fics writing about the st characters and especially the byers and christmas, describing their house as basically one big Christmas tree with the lights all over, or sometimes will having Christmas lights hanging in his room permanently just for the sake of vibes, and while I do believe they would be the type of household to do that pre-upside down, I just can't imagine them continuing that after the whole talking through the lights Shabang.

I would imagine that especially the coloured lights, but in reality just most kinds of lights would just remind them of everything that happened and instead I imagine Joyce does whatever she can to mimic the vibes of christmsd lights but as much without electronic lights as possible. I'm thinking candles and glow in the dark stickers and maybe even some of those old gas lights they found somewhere in the shed. any christmas lights in the house are 1. the plain white light kind and 2. thoroughly diy-ed so much that they barely even resemble christmas lights at all.

and of course they still do have to use electronic lights, because you kinda just cant get around it anymore, but they are hidden by decorations and lampshades and blankets and even though it might takr up a bit more of their budget than before, they always buy high quality bulbs that are replaced as soon as they show even the slightest sign of a flicker because you cant tell me everything theyve gone through with the communicating through the lights left no impact on them, especially joyce

Sometimes I feel like I’m “done” learning about myself, that I’ve learned all the big lessons there is to learn, but life will twist in a way that exposes a major flaw & I have no choice but to look. Look at myself, look at the dark parts, look at all the things in my life from this new angle. Pain hurts, it destroys, but it uncovers. And I’ve learned when you accept what has been exposed, no matter how ugly, you can choose to evolve from it, and years later the same situation that brought you pain will bring you gratitude

art of imitation (life&death)

i'm sitting on a train, and trees rush past, the sunlight peeks through, bringing images of my life flashing by right before i die.

it's funny, isn't it? how much life imitates death. years spent drafting nirvana for the end of a tragic drama.

it's as if, once it starts, life becomes the art of simultaneously avoiding and steadily plummeting towards the inevitable.

[faggy--butch]

My experiences with Manhood and Womanhood are very similar. Seems like people are always striving to be the "ideals" of man and woman, but while manhood is always stripped from you or denied to you in some way, womanhood never lets you escape. They'll call you ugly and boyish or whatever but they dont mean "you are a boy" they mean "you're a girl in the wrong way"

So I'm always trying to claw my way out just to have the rubber band snap and get pulled back in kicking and screaming

sometimes i think we are all just children of the months we are born to

january babies, headstrong leaders

like a new year’s resolution come to life

may kids, soft and bright

the budding of a million spring flowers

then there are nature’s most desperate;

the children of august, longing and lingering

a fading sunburn you peel off your back

this is the family I was born into to

never taught to be anything more than fleeting

a last kiss, sand washing down your shower drain, a wave the sun gives as it dips below the horizon, tearful departures for the shattered hearts we leave behind

soaring temperatures help to coax you into 5 months of darkness

the sun never burns brighter than the final weeks before the equinox

peaches are ripest just before they rot

my entire life colored burnt orange before my very eyes

every summer is a new summer

until august

when every summer is a last summer

the children of august, transient and constantly searching for beginnings

instead of perpetual ends
