*sittin up projecting onto the baby blorbo when I should be sleeping*

#just havin a super normal 1 #ok but i neddta tag rant #prepare for typos #but #like ok imagine you havin your first real melt down #you dont know whats happenin just that you feel like your goin insane #and instead of helpin ya #your dad- the only person ever been lookin out for ya #his solution is restrict your freedom/ cut off access to this part of you that he was praisin and encouraging before #cause yknow it scares him now #now bein strong and aggressive is bad and you needta be quiet and calm #but ay since you cant act up now problem solved right?#he can just ignore it all now #no way this sudden unexpected shift will trigger a downward spiral or anything #....anyway yes im sayin the big evil bad guy is just an uwu over stimulated smol bean #...but fr every time paragus says ' there was somethin far darker about him ' i get sad for the dumb man baby #cause man hes talkin about his kid #blah blah blah ok sleep. thats a thing i should do soon

yknow i gotta say. lex luthor can be a really fun and interesting villain, but sometimes it does just take me aback the way some people talk about him when trying to make him funny and cool, as if his biggest and most infamous shtick is not extreme, violent xenophobia.

#rimi talks #the man is literally genocidal. AND he wants to kick krypto when he has kryptonite out. thats racism AND animal cruelty #like he can genuinely be such a fun and fascinating villain!!!!! he can!! he's FUN in say superman birthright #but for example new krypton lex? i wanted to throttle that man. i did.#and like i know people do stuff like haha what if supervillain was actually fun or funny or cool etc #but imo that can be done in ways that don't downplay that he Fuckign SUCKS #see also: reign of the supermen movie lex. horrible man. also hilarious to see him onscreen with lois #but the ''good dad lex luthor'' stuff (🙄) and other things in that general vein make me so....#you know that man would be violently abusive to an alien child in the same way white supremacists are violently abusive to mixed children.#you guys know that. right? his entire thing is vehement and violent xenophobia. you guys know that right #lex luthor (derogatory)#<- its been a hot minute since i blogged about him but im like 90% sure thats my lex tag

something he can't put into words.

#ANOTHER DAIGO POST!!!! <333 #also sorry for being like teehee yaoi dojima anyway daigo can't/probably shouldn't be close to his bio dad and latched onto this random #20 year old but Doesnt Quite recognize what is so wrong about sohei and so right about kiryu and how he should feel about either #meaning he cant fulfill his true desire (baby duck around kamurocho with his babysitter who's probably got better things to do bc people #always have better things to do than take care of him but at least kiryu pretends he enjoys it #for hours and hours and hours. some of the others ask him how he is or what he's up to at school but they don't really reach him like kiryu #does. he wants to impress him soooo bad. aughhh baby daigo you're annoying but you're also so emotionally neglected #haha latching onto mentors bc they're more involved/easier to connect to than parents haha who would do that not me ahem uh anyway #(skrunks be normal about and not project onto a kiryu + child dynamic challenge: impossible)#anyway he can't just say sohei's his father bc he's a big crime daddy but he hasn't really.. accepted? whats going on with kiryu yet either #i dont think he knows kiryu's his dad is my point #rgg #ryu ga gotoku #yakuza #dojima daigo #like a dragon #daigo dojima #ykz #i accidentally saved over soo many versions of this so i had to be like fuck it we ball. thats the final version of that panel now #gonna schedule this for later today bc i dont wanna stifle the kazumi posts but i also uh. am impatient #anyway more little daigo content he's such an ass but it makes so much sense why he's like that and he deserves a whole lotta love #also i just realized i used different name orders for kiryu and yayoi... sorry idk im just incapable of writing kazuma kiryu #uhOOPS POSTED IT EARLY NVM #yer gettin a loootta skrunk content today ig #skrunkart

if life is categorized by Before Loss and After Loss then I exist in the before but with a countdown to the after. and the countdown is always always present and debilitating. the loss will be debilitating too but i cant help myself. i will always suffer twice.

#i cant let go of it. i cant even enjoy good moments without thinking about how they'll just be memories one day #how they're already memories since moments pass so fast #everything is I'll Miss This and i already miss it and i cant believe once you're gone you're gone forever #and ill never ever see you again. and your shell is in the ground but where did the rest of you go?#should i look at your body one last time? on one hand itll be the last time i see you.#on the other hand it will be the last time i see you.#and the memory of you will die with me too. as if neither ever existed #it impacts me so much too bc i dont feel close to anybody really...and i dont make friends easily #so whats going to happen when the people who have always been there arent there anymore?#im going to be alone for so much of my life.#i will record your voice so im ready for when i cant hear it from the source while also knowing it wont be enough and one day #ill be wishing it lasted longer. it could be 12 hours long and ill want more.#how do you surpass this? it hasn't even happened. when it happens i don't know what ill do. considering my whole life has been #the timer. the countdown. hours and hours of anticipatory grief #and then ill be next. me. some of all thats left of you. it cant be true.#sorry. this gets worse every single year and its been going insane lately #id surprisingly been managing it well for months somehow ! it wouldnt cross my mind...and now its there again #like it accumulated and its all coming out right now. ive been crying for hrs tonight and last night #one day his things will just be things. things ive made and given him will be in my hands again.#talkys #i want to go hug my dad but then ill just cry over how one day i wont be able to....! how do i store it? how do i save it?#how do i preserve it forever....even as i take my own last breath....#i cant believe im the only one of me. and my dad is the only one of him.#i wouldnt want to be reborn as anyone else. i cant believe one day i wont get to draw or eat or be comfy in bed anymore.#i cant take it !! im so scared. ill be scared until the end. and you wont be there to hold my hand. im going to be alone.#and none of those years of grief and joy and memories will matter.#i wonder if it would help to tell him about this. i need something to hold onto for when it happens. anything. but i also know it'll make i #hurt more; obviously. just another piece of him that'll be gone one day

I think bpd is a bullshit stigmatizing label thrown at women to pathologize what is very obviously a response to prolonged childhood trauma and would be better labeled as C-PTSD. that being said my god I am bpd as fuck

#my sister just snapped at me bc i said i dont want to do a ton of physical labor for the job she signed me up for which apparently does i #in fact involve a lot of it. and her being mad for even that moment sent me spiraling so badly & i had the reaction i often do where #i start hating both her & myself terribly & want to isolate forever #i think she hates her new job & is taking it out on me but it doesnt matter bc i cant handle being yelled at #and the fact thst it took me till adulthood to realize thats bc i associate it with my father is crazy. yeah its just the cptsd like #everything else. and whats nutso is how i continue to think my trauma Wasnt Bad Enough for ptsd .#just bc he didnt beat the shit out of or molest me i feel like i dont even have a right to be this fucked up #not that it was only him. being bullied at school really did not help. i guess now that i think about it the problem is that until #i was a teenager i literally did not feel emotionally secure anywhere. home or school. always the ticking of a bomb in the bg #the inevitable moment my dad blew up over nothing or i overheard my peers talking about what a freak i was #i dont know why it still hurts to think about. im so far removed from it my life now couldnt be more different #well thats the stupid fucking thing about childhood isnt it. those are your very first experiences with the world & other ppl #i do know my view of romantic relationships was irrevocably poisoned by my parents & that is never going to be undone. so cool

I don't think y'all 2 parented people understand what it was like to be a kid who only knew 1 parent when Percy Jackson started becoming really popular. my entire early childhood I was the odd one out, constantly being asked what happened to my dad. this series changed the fucking game entirely. we talk a lot about what it did for kids with learning disabilities, which is also extremely important, but I think it's time we acknowledge the way this series normalized and even sort of glorified having a single parent in a way nothing else ever had

#its still so important to me as a narrative about kids who feel/are abandoned #especially the way its totally normal in the series to talk about parents‚ even literal gods‚ as people who can do bad things #like id never encountered a narrative where it was ok and normal to talk shit on your parents #to say you know what they ARENT doing their best. they dont care about me. but thats okay because i can find others who do #ykwim?#this series told me as a kid its ok to be mad. youre right to expect more. parents shouldnt be fucking deadbeats #they should CARE about their kids #i read pjo before realizing how abusive my mom was‚ and it primed me for understanding and accepting that #especially seeing how good of a parent sally jackson was. compared even to annabeths dad who really was trying

some of my durges heehee some of my tavs: [part 1] [part 2]

#HIII dont read the tags if you dislike talks of extreme violence OR murder OR torture OR cannibalism OR just general bhaalist activities lol #if u do read the tags though llol hiiiii sorry for the ramble but erm. enjoy ig #something ive done with all my durge playthroughs is have orin take a trophy from each of their bodies in some way.#in this case; casimir's horns and carrion's right eye #she took casimir's horns and capped them in gold as a slight #before da lobotomy cas said the way shed kill herself after murdering the world was to forge herself a crown of gold from her own horns #cas wanted to be king of the murdered world in the name of her father. therefore crown. yeag #“crown” as in she would pour molten gold over her horns and let it drip down and boil her alive before she joined murder dad in death #so thats exactly what orin took from her #she made her horns into a golden crown then took it from her by cutting them off #in my head orin made the crown of horns wearable and would wear it during their duel #carrion's trophy situation is different from casimir's #carrion's name pre-orin lobotomy is still unknown to her #carrion was just the first thing she remembered when she woke back up after everything #all because orin called her that while torturing her #orin picked at her body like it was carrion and she was a vulture. she plucked out her eye and cut her open and ate her flesh and innards.#and when carrion finally remembered this she decided to keep the name and wear it with pride #as she would the the world's final piece of carrion #made to be the final rotten meal for her father to supp on after the world dies by her hand #she would be the carcass that houses the world. a true gift of flesh and murder only for her father #ALSO orin kept carrion's eye in a jar on her desk to look at fondly while doing her creative writing or whatever idk.#after carrion killed orin and found her eye she ate it lmfao #ok that’s all bye :3 #my art #my durges #bg3 #bg3 art #artists on tumblr #baldurs gate 3 #dark urge

look i love spot just as much as anybody else but if i see somebody actually unironically siding with him and saying hes in the right, im gonna think theyre fucking insane

#WHAT DO YOU MEAN ITS MILES FAULT---------#the only legitimate grievance spot has with miles is how upsetting it mustve been to have his traumatic backstory be so easily dismissed #otherwise #how the fuck was miles supposed to know ohnn was there? how the fuck is it miles fault he SAVED THE ENTIRE GODDAMN MULTIVERSE?#spot legitimately needs help and he wont be finding it in KILLING MILES DAD #(not that spot can seem to get help considering his condition which explains his severe mental deterioration)#(which probably also resulted from the isolation that came right after a trauma conga line of becoming disabled+getting ostracized+#+losing his job+losing any support system he mightve had)#but i am not blaming miles for any of that. thats THE SYSTEM #babey!!!#another note: spot worked for evil inc. literally what was he expecting would happen? he was down to shoot spiderman for trespassing like #he was very much not working for the good guys.#mind you even if im firmly on team 'actions have consequences'i still think what happened to spot was downright horrific and #he didnt deserve to be hurt to such a degree but. shrug. im gonna make a whole post on him some day i swear.#the spot #spiderverse spoilers #atsv spoilers #atsv #across the spiderverse #johnathon ohnn #miles morales #<- dont you dare touch a hair on his or his familys head wretched bagel man (affectionate)#spot

the concept of shit being 18+ gets so ridiculous at a certain point. like what do i suddenly get the ability to comprehend gore and sex at midnight exactly the moment i turn 18? what about an hour before? am i still a little baby then? what is supposed to change the day i turn 18

#my dad just told me abt this series he likes but prefaced it by saying i'm way too young to watch it and i just #sat there as he went on abt how vulgar and violent it was thinking ''ohhh fuck hes gonna kill me if he finds out about hazbin''#thats another thing that annoys me right bc queer characters notwithstanding they'll be pissed if they find out i watched it #but like what the hell are they meant to do. wipe the memories from my mind ??#like i already saw and comprehended it. but yet i know they're going to be freaking out if they find out #ughghghhhhh #vent kinda #this devolved by my original point still stands #age restrictions are useless past a certain point

i think part of the reason tbk were so quick to jump on kalina "betraying" cassandra and conspiring against her is probly bc of the ankarna plotline with porter and her other followers betraying her only to kill her but like..... i think the key difference is that porter was just some fucking guy who wanted power and kalina was cassandras Familiar. her most loyal confidante. like im sure kalina DID want power but i think her trying to bring back the nightmare king was more a desperate move to save her goddess. and maybe a misguided idea that shed be "safer" and more able to protect herself from her followers if she was the nightmare king instead. bc it WASNT kalina that killed her! it was the mortals! kalina just followed her where she went!!

#like. Kalina is a bad person! she did terrible things to the bad kids! she killed riz's dad! thats all true!#but youre never gonna convince me that she wasnt absolutely loyal to her goddess. shes a fucking FAMILIAR!!!#CASSANDRA RAISED HER PRACTICALLY! THEY WERE FAMILY!! SHES NOT JUST SOME FUCKIN INTERN #like is it just cat bias? is that what it is? is it the myth that cats can never be loyal to their ppl?#the whole “oh your cat will eat ur body when u die” thing?#bc if so thats a really stupid thing to let get in the way of Good Coherent Character Development lol #you cant convince me kalina wasnt willing to do absolutely anything for her goddess.#its like. what if i accused the hangman of trying to betray fabian. youd think i was insane. well thats how i feel right now #just bc shes a bitch doesnt mean shes evil 🙄 god forbid catgirls do anything!#bectxt #op #txt #d20fh #fhjy spoilers #kalina

i dont trust people who think Usagi is boring like just say you dont understand her and move along. bye now!!!

#shes either a buddhist or a goth in her regards to life death and survival #she helps others bc others refused to help her #life treated her so poorly but she refused to let that change her perception #rven after her father's death she refused to take out her anger on others #(despite having the right to feel that way based on her own experiences)#((her dad killed himself bc of how horrible other people were to him))#she actively chooses good bc she wants to be that light for others who may have been in her shoes #say “manga Usagi wasnt as active” all you want but just know youre wrong #just bc she wasnt always physically active doesnt mean she wasnt actively doing other things #(like taking care of Arisu as a coping mechanism)#she chooses love light and life ALWAYS bc she knows part of life is to suffer. thats kinda the whole point #but being that good in a sea of darkness is what makes living worthwhile #the only rzn that wasnt the message right off the bat was bc it takes place from Arisu's POV not Usagi's #anyways I LOVE USAGI YUZUHA!!!!!#alice in borderland #ima wa no kuni no alice #usagi yuzuha #yuzuha usagi

most days I'm so chill with the fact I'm non-contact with my father, it was the best decision, I hate him, my life is so much more peaceful without him

then bam it's a random Tuesday at 8pm and I'm sobbing because I miss having a dad, like, excuse me what is this??
