Also in general I really don’t trust people who constantly call themself smart/intelligent like. Why do you value this enough to talk about it all the time? I’m not saying you have to demean yourself but also quite literally get it out of your brain that being “smart” is a virtue. It’s a made up metric of a very nebulous concept.
Knowing things, in general, is swag and cool but knowing things doesn’t make someone smart or intelligent. That’s a subjective term used primarily in academia which is founded in eugenics and white supremacy. Divorce the concept of valueable or even credible with academia.
You can get entire degrees on a subject and know nothing about it at all because that’s not HOW the world WORKS. If you don’t have first hand experience with something you don’t know that much about it. Sure, studying can be good and can grant experience and knowledge, but academia isn’t actually built for that it’s built to further eugenics and white supremacy.
Most jobs should not require any kind of formal education or degree but they do. It’s to keep uneducated and disabled people from having jobs and being able to progress in society, and don’t think for a fucking second that this doesn’t effect people of color (especially Black/Indigenous people) more than it does white people. It takes exactly two fucking seconds to notice all the racist gatekeeping in schools starting in fucking kindergarten.
IQ is made up. Intelligence is fake.
When you brag about this shit a lot all I’m really getting from it is that you believe in eugenics, that you believe that as an uneducated person that I’m worth less than you. And with the amount of humiliation, ableism, and general mistreatment I’ve gotten both in academics and outside of it for being disabled and being undereducated it’s a defense mechanism for me way more than it is being “bitter i get bad grades” like someone is going to undoubtedly try and respond to this with.
Just I get if you work hard at something you’re proud of it that’s normal but you can just SAY something like that without making it clear how much you think undereducated and disabled people don’t matter in society lmao

my two attitudes to doing the dishes include:
(1.) doing the dishes (affirmative, but resigned. bc most of the time it makes me productive enough to do other more important things, like other housekeeping tasks such as vacuuming)
(2.) doing the dishes (derogatory. sheer, blind animosity. paralysing exhaustion, evasion and procrastination abound bc there’s just too much shit in the sink and i don’t want to get wet)

Any wholesome Freunwol headcanons?
hi yes hello yes hi hello yes well
- ive mentioned hair before but like. that just really seems like an important form of intimacy for them i think!!! braiding it, brushing it, freud snuggling into euns hair when he sleeps or vice versa..... the lil things yknow?
- i do wanna touch on the falling asleep in his hair thing bc like. i think that would absolutely make euns heart melt. kind of hard to move tho
- on a similar topic, i do remember seeing a comic of freud giving eun an actual haircut as opposed to a wild boy never-had-positive-interactions-in-his-life mess and it was SO fucking cute so to me its canon that freud gave eun his haircuts & styled it and to eun that was like the second coming of jesus christmas (i bookmarked the comic but the tweet was deleted. Q-Q)
- in the maple m dialogue eun says freud gets quiet when hes angry, which i think only applies to like genuine fury, but also. no talk me angy
- i think the fact that one of euns moves is him transforming into a biggol spirit to slash at stuff is HIGHLY underutilized in fandom sphere... freud sees it for the first time and loses his fuckin mind
- i think they kind of represent different things to each other? like ive prolly mentioned i think freud is a source of stability for eun (not the least of which is cuz house), but i do think eun is a kind of freedom for freud. hes rather one-track minded- judging from his introspection in the journal event, he tended to miss the forest for the trees, getting too caught up in doing and forgetting why hes doing it. i can see fighting bm becoming an all-consuming thing in his life, and struggling to imagine a life outside of it, cuz hes already come this far. being w eun- considering how eun is- would prove as a reminder that he'll have a life after the battle, and no matter what he chooses to do, there will be people who back him up on the decision
- and on a similar topic freud is... probably repressed to the point of not understanding what romantic feelings feel like. he knows the signs of it on other ppl but hes like "hm i feel strangely anxious and warm and my heart is beating very fast... am i having heat stroke" (half joke, he would know, but still too repressed to say anything, i think. he just offers to house eun and stay with him through the good and bad times)
- hes a warm person, and its genuine, but i think often it may be kind of impersonal- more of a politeness thing. so being able to connect with eun and the other heroes is something very special to him, and hes very special to them!!!
- theres a lot of parallels that need to be explored. the moon and mr left a hole open in the roof so he could stare at the moon. the ocean and the wind. the dragon and the... fox? deer? guy? i want so desperately to make a color comparison but their main colors are red and either black or purple so its. not the best of comparisons.
- THE FUCKING ROOF THING I DIDNT EVEN THINK OF THAT DID YOU KNOW. DID YOU KNOW EUNWOL MEANS HIDDEN MOON probably you did, i thought it was silver moon for the longest time BUT. freud made space in his life for eun & emphasized it wasnt a burden because it wasnt and allowed himself to be vulnerable around him and eun came out of his shell bit by bit and was rewarded with love and appreciation from the people who mattered most and mAN. MAN,
