Billy Cranston x Skull (Eugene Skullovitch)
Mighty morphin Power Rangers fanfic
I just thought it would’ve been really cool if Billy and skull became friends or maybe something even more than that. I have had that idea for a while now so yea. Sorry if there are any grammatical mistakes, this is like literally the first fanfic I have ever written. Anyways enjoy lols. Also idc what anyone says but skull gives heavy bisexual energy. Also this won’t really be anything over the top it’s just gonna be a friendly conversation I’m thinking of writing a part two.🤞
Cw: pretty light hearted, mentions of bullying and regret related to friendship.
It’s almost night time and billy had been studying in the library for the past 5 hours, yet he still doesn’t feel tired of reading, but he has to get home before it’s too late or his parents might freak. He packs up all of his books and starts heading home, but suddenly he hears someone yelling for help nearby, the noise seems to be coming from behind the school, he rushes to the back to find Skull surrounded by putty patrol. Billy throws his backpack and runs to the putty to kick their butts. He punches and kicks through them as skull is on the floor scared yet impressed. He soon beats all of them and the putties disappear into thin air.
“ARE YOU OKAY!?”
Billy says as he runs towards skull
“I’m okay”
Skull says as he is panting
“What are you doing here this late?”
Billy asks
“I should be asking that same question to you NERD!”
Skull says in a mean tone
There is an air of silence before skull decides to drop the bully act
“I was just walking home from a party we were having, I had to leave early because I had stuff at home, then I heard these weird noises nearby and when I checked I saw these weird alien looking thingies. They noticed me and surrounded me, but then you showed up beat them up.”
“Well I’m glad I heard you screaming in the distance.”
Billy says
“Screaming? No! You must’ve heard someone else! Haha!”
Skull says trying to act tough and pretending as if he wasn’t screaming like a girl 10 minutes ago.
“Sure. Just make sure that If you optically discern extra terrestrial creatures, you absquatulate.”
Billy says
“Speak English.”
Skull says
“Just make sure that if you see aliens aka putties or any other monsters, you run away.”
Billy says acting like he is talking to a child
“Yea I heard those power ranger people take care of them, not gonna lie their pretty cool.”
Skull says
“Great.”
Billy says as he starts walking away
“Wait!”
Skull says, Billy turns around to look at him.
“I know you live near my place, do you wanna walk home together?”
Billy pauses for a moment to think and then says
“Sure.”
Billy and skull start walking down the side of the road towards their neighborhood
“Hey I know I didn’t say it back there but, thank you for saving me.
Skull says in a more nicer and calmer tone
“Don’t thank me, it was only the right thing for me to do.”
Billy says
“I know but if I were you, I probably wouldn’t have helped considering how much of a douche I am to you and your friends.”
Skull says
There is a minute of silence before skull continues,
“I’m really sorry for how me and bulk treat you and your friends. I honestly regret it and the only time I actually have fun is when you end up making a fool out of bulk.”
Both of them giggle
Skull continues
“You know to be honest with you I regret having friends like bulk, because he could probably never apologize to you like this. His ego is too big for him to even start thinking of apologizing for the shit he does. Sometimes I wish I could go back to just being normal and not walking down the hallway thinking of who I’m gonna bully into giving me money next. I can only vaguely remember the time I wasn’t doing these mean things, I used to be a loner really, until bulk showed up and actually was nice to me compared to the other kids, I guess it was because we were both always treated like outcasts. But bulk was the first time I felt real friendship or at least what I thought was real friendship. And then high school came around and bulk changed into this horrible, ego filled, hateful dude, and instead of telling him how mean he was being, I just followed his footsteps. Come to think of it I really haven’t experienced true friendship with anyone in a long time, and you’re lucky dude you have all these friends that you could actually trust to have your back. I’ve dug myself too deep into this bully thing to come out of it now.”
“You can still come out of it!”
Billy says cheerfully
“It’s never too late to change, especially when you regret what you did. And I mean, you have already taken a great step at apologizing to me for your past blunders. You’re in the right track.”
Billy says and smiles at skull, skull smiles back. Billy continues
“Hey if you wish to, we can meet up at the mall this Saturday to hang out, I heard that there’s a new arcade there…….if you’re free that is. My friends aren’t free as they still haven’t finished their assignments and for the first time in forever I have no schoolwork to do, and I was looking for someone to come with me anyways”
“Sure. I owe it to ya.”
Skull says
They slow down as they approach Billy’s house. They stand in front of the door.
“Hey, I’ll try my best to actually stand up to bulk but I can’t make promises so if he is mean then make sure you really embarrass him, and I guess embarrass me too if I say nothing.”
Skull says. They both start giggling. Skull continues.
“But thanks, for being nice to me even though I kinda suck”
Skull says
“Don’t mention it. Thanks for apologizing, and I really hope you’re able to take more steps in the right direction, because you really are a more nicer person than you show.”
They both say bye before Billy walks into his house and closes the door
Skull walks ahead of Billy’s house, towards his house, smiling and blushing. He is very excited for this Saturday.

this isnt an ask its uhhh? something? bid for acceptance? okay so im a lesbian, i dated 1 cis straight boy ever (first relationship i was 13) and everyone else has always been sapphic. but most of my life i ID’d as a bi person (to the 0 community i had IRL) ,, recently i have fully come to terms w the fact i am only attracted to women, femininity, androgyny, butch idc as long as its lady :3 ,, and i call myself a non binary lesbian!
okay so heres the problem, i finally have a very small IRL community and i am currently in a long term relationship w a fairly masc presenting trans women,, uhm i feel like no one sees me as a lesbian or that im in a sapphic relationship? i have had most people in my life still refer to me as bisexual and saying things like “bi girls take up a lot of space in LGBT spaces b/c theres never been oppression for them” (1. wrong ) im not even bi! i havent ever claimed that around these people,, it feels really uhm, outcasting? for both me and my girlfriend like im not valid and neither is she. idk if im too ‘back and forth’ on gender presentation to be seen as a sapphic or feminine all the time, while she isnt usually seen as a girl by anyone (usually gets called a gay man or a cross dresser)
i dont know what the point of this was i think im just venting sorry. i like your blog and i relate to you wanted to be seen as you
I’m sorry you’ve been feeling invalidated. It’s not good of them to be talking about no people that way, and even if you’re not I’m sorry you have to go through it

I've been seeing a lot of posts about this all over social media, and while the majority of them are fine and just people expressing their opinions, a lot of people from both sides of the argument have been saying some really inexcusable stuff (such as telling people on the opposing side to off themselves, etc) and it's really pissing me off. Pls everyone idc if you agree w me or not but at least try to be mature and respectful when engaging in these conversations bc the goal is learning, understanding, tolerance, and cooperation (working together to find solutions to problems that will benefit all of us). So here's my stance on the issue, and feel free to reply, ask questions, or dm me and start a conversation regardless of your veiws. Just be nice! Here's my opinions, based off my own personal experience:
To start off: pansexuality is not inherently biphobic and/or transphobic
Yes, there are pansexuals who are biphobic, and yes they harm the transgender community in that sense. This is because generally pansexuals who are biphobic say they bisexuals are transphobic and essentially invalidate binary trans people's identity as a man or woman by saying that bisexuals are only attracted to cis men and cis women, not trans people. However, the majority of pansexual people do not think this way. Personally (and most of the pansexuals as talked to agree w me), I do not believe that bisexuality is transphobic. Why? Trans women are women, and trans men are men. If you will not date a trans person simply bc they are trans, then you're transphobic, but that has absolutely nothing to do w your sexuality. My own and most people's understanding of bisexuality (and the definition you get if you Google it, and the definition that most bisexuals will give you), is that bisexuality means attraction to 2 or more genders (which yes, could mean all), with a preference. With. A. Preference. I identified as bi to myself for years, and came out as bi for almost a year, never feeling as if the label fully fit me or that I was fully understood by the community bc there is always sm emphasis on the fact that bisexuals have a preference, while I never have. I don't think anyone is less than anyone else for having a preference, or better than anyone else for not having a preference. Pansexuality simply allows me to be apart of a smaller more specific community that fully understands my experience w attraction. I also know that bisexuality can be used as an umbrella term for anyone attracted to 2+ genders, but in the same way that it's not biphobic for lesbians to prefer to date other lesbians bc of their shared experience, I like having a smaller community that specifically experiences attraction in the same way that I do. I've also seen a lot of people talking about how people seem to think that bisexuals only care about sex, and that pansexuals think theyre better bc they're uwu innocent babies. I'm not entirely sure I'm not on the ace spectrum somewhere but lemme tell you that does not make me any less of a whore. No one is better than anyone else for how much or little they think about or enjoy sex.
2nd; bisexuality is not inherently transphobic.
Yes, there are bisexuals who are transphobic, but this is not the majority of the community. Most bi people consider trans women to be real women (which they are) and trans men to be real men (which they are). I will say it again; if you won't date someone just bc they're trans, you are transphobic, but that has nothing to do w your sexuality. As for non binary people, yes, bisexuality includes them too. Bisexuality is not inherently transphobic.
3rd; all mspec labels are fucking valid.
Whether you identify as bisexual, pansexual, omnisexual, or polysexual, you are valid. You can use bisexuality as an umbrella term if that's what you're most comfortable w, or if the definition perfectly describes your relationship w attraction then that's cool too. If you feel that pansexuality, omnisexuality, or polysexuality better describes you and you enjoy having a smaller more specific community to fully relate to, guess what, that's also cool. No one is better than anyone else, and while there are members of every community who feel that they are, they do not represent everyone.
4th; panphobia/omniphobia/polyphobia only comes from the mspec community, if it comes from outside, it's probably biphobia
Let me explain; there is no problem that comes from people who are not attracted to multiple genders that everyone on this spectrum doesn't face. Bisexuality is a spectrum that we all fall on, an umbrella term that we all fit under. This means that unless it's coming from a person or group on this spectrum, it's probably biphobia you're facing. There are 2 types of biphobia: the biphobia that comes from mspecs, and the biphobia that comes from people who aren't on the spectrum of bisexuality. The biphobia that comes from inside is only against people who identify as bisexual, and the biphobia that comes from outside is against anyone who is attracted to multiple genders. I'm not saying there aren't a few instances of people who arent mspec targeting a specific group and not every mspec identity, but most of the time, if it's from the outside, it's classified as biphobia, bc that includes all of us.
In conclusion, this is what the mspec sexualities are and some of my final thoughts;
Bisexuality = attraction to 2+ genders with or without a preference. It can be used as an umbrella term by the whole mspec community, or as a specific label on it's own. It includes trans and non binary people, and is not a transphobic label. There are transphobic bisexuals, but the fact that they are transphobic and the fact that they are bisexual are not related in any way. They are not more or less than any other mspec identity, or sexuality in general.
Pansexuality = attraction to all genders without a preference. It is not biphobic and/or transphobic. There are biphobic and/or transphobic pansexuals but the fact that they are biphobic and/or transphobic is not related to their pansexuality. Many people who identify as bisexual describe their attraction in the same way as pansexuals. This is 100% valid as bisexuality can be used as an umbrella term and the label you identify w is all about your comfort. They are not more or less than any other mspec identity or sexuality in general.
Omnisexuality = attraction to all genders w a preference. It is not biphobic and/or transphobic. There are biphobic and/or transphobic omnisexuals but the fact that they are biphobic and/or transphobic is not related to their omnisexuality. Many people who identify as bisexual describe their attraction in the same way as omnisexuals. This is 100% valid as bisexuality can be used as an umbrella term and the label you identify w is all about your comfort. They are not more or less than any other mspec identity or sexuality in general.
Polysexuality = attraction to more than 2, but not all genders. It is not biphobic and/or transphobic. There are biphobic and/or transphobic polysexuals but the fact that they are biphobic and/or transphobic is not related to their polysexuality. Many people who identify as bisexual describe their attraction in the same way as polysexuals. This is 100% valid as bisexuality can be used as an umbrella term and the label you identify w is all about your comfort. They are not more or less than any other mspec identity or sexuality in general.
Honestly, I think we all get enough hate from inside and outside the lgbtqia+ community and we need to stick together and have each others backs. It's not the microlabels that are causing problems, it's the exclusionists. Invalidating eo's experiences and saying that biphobia is a bigger problem, panphobia is a bigger problem, omniphobia is a bigger problem, or polyphobia is a bigger problem, isn't gonna help anyone or solve anything. We can have slightly different experiences and still relate and support eo. Also, even if you have a problem w a specific label, pls just ask your questions genuinely, and try to understand the opposing side. Just have a mature conversation. If you're too young or immature to do that then you probably shouldn't be on social media. Calling eo names and telling eo to off ourselves isn't helping anything and there is no excuse for it. I've always loved the lgbtqia+ community for it's love and acceptance, but the more active I become within the community itself, the more I realise how toxic it can be. Sometimes I'm genuinely embarrassed to part of this community. Especially when it's grown adults acting like children that is causing the problems. Pls do better. Thank you for your time, thank you for reading, I love you, have a nice day!!!
Also I just want to add that ik there are more mspec identities than this, and you're all so valid. These are just the sexualities that ik enough about to give a proper statement on and the ones I've seen mentioned in this discourse the most. I'm actively trying to learn more about the mspec identities I mentioned, and those that I didn't. Pls feel free to give me any info on any sexuality (doesn't even have to be mspec I just want to learn more so I can be good ally for everyone), or ask me any questions about my own sexuality, and pls let me know if there is anything I should add or any misinformation in this post (I will not be including blatant blankphobia against any mspec identity so don't even try it bitches)

Let’s talk about Hazbin Hotel
So, I finally sat down and watched Hazbin Hotel. I’d heard so much about it and felt the need to launch myself headfirst into having my own opinions about it instead of just listening to other people talking about it. This is gonna be a long post, so I’m gonna put it behind a neat little read more. Please note that this is coming from someone who genuinely enjoys adult humour and edgy humour and themes. I’ve got no problem with something that’s all swearing and raunchy jokes. It just needs to be done right.
Point 1 - The Plot The plot is describes as the Princess of Hell trying to open a new hotel to rehabilitate sinners so they don’t get exterminated during the yearly heavenly extermination to deal with Hell’s overpopulation problems. This plot is quickly undone through a few things that anyone can notice during the first viewing. 1 - Overpopulation? WHAT population? The scenery is most often noticeably devoid of any signs of life, outside of when background characters are called for. The scene where Charlie’s doing her news presentation is the most notable example of background characters. After this scene, we see almost nobody outside of the main cast and those weird little egg things. There are a few throwaway demons but outside of that, the streets are devoid of people. There aren’t even the corpses we had just seen during that opening scene. 2 - Charlie may as well be a total nobody what with all the power being the Princess of Hell holds. Just look at how the other characters treat her. You’d think the Princess of Hell would have some kind of benefit that would sway people towards agreeing with this whole idea. Instead, she gets mocked by just about everyone for reasons I can only guess involve winning her sympathy points from the audience. 3 - At no point does she give any proof that redemption would work. She basically says, “Hey guys! I hate seeing you all die, so I have this idea that has no backing evidence, that may or may not work, to try and get you guys into Heaven! Let me sing a song about it where I insult you all!”
Point 2 - Presentation I applaud the animators. Must’ve been hard, especially for Charlie’s overly fast song that really didn’t need to be nightcored, or literally any time Angel Dust was on-screen. Frame by frame. No rigs. All those stripes. All those colours that blend if you stare at them too hard or squint even slightly while watching. All that unnecessarily constant movement. It’s no wonder the thing took four bloody years to animate. Outside of animation, there are too many unneeded details and not enough needed details. Seriously. 1 - The turf war. We didn’t need this. We didn’t need this at all. If you take out the entire opening to it and the entire actual fight scene here, the episode still flows smoothly and we get the same amount of information and worldbuilding. In a pilot/first episode, you should only give the audience necessary details. Leave them wanting more, yes, but make sure they actually know what they’re getting into from the first episode. Make every scene count. Make it mean something. Don’t just shove every detail you can think of together and call it a day, especially if you don’t actually give the audience much information from it. 2 - Why is Hell overpopulated? Why isn’t Heaven? Why can angels go from Heaven to Hell, but demons can’t go from Hell to Heaven? Why does nobody care about being redeemed if Hell is so overpopulated that Angels annually come down and kill people because of it? Why does everyone treat the Princess of Hell like she’s worthless? Why doesn’t Angel Dust know about Alastor if they got into hell within 10 years of each other? Where is this supposed overpopulation problem? Would redemption even work in the first place? Why should I care about most of these characters (who are mostly complete jerks with no redeeming qualities other than “PROTAGONIST”, especially when two of the fan favourites repeatedly sexually assault other characters and, in one case, is both sexist and racist at one point)? Why are there turf wars? I should not be having to ask these questions. Don’t hold the audience’s hand, but don’t leave every single question you present in the show unanswered. Some of the questions presented make absolute sense to leave unanswered. Why does Alastor want to help with the hotel? Why are characters like Vaggie and Niffty, who do nothing all that bad, in Hell? These are questions that make total sense to leave unanswered for now. 3 - What crime is too terrible to be redeemed for? Charlie seems to think that literally everyone can be redeemed. That means murderers, rapists, abusers, tormentors... Certainly her song holds some kind of key to figuring it out! “Inside of every creepy hatchet-wielding maniac” Hmm... Okay... “All of you cretins, sluts and losers, sexual deviants and boozers” Uh... “So, all your cartoon porn addictions, vegan rants, psychic predictions Ancient Roman crucifixions end right here All you monsters, thieves and crazies, cannibals and crying babies" Oh... Also, did she imply that mental illness, alcoholism, drug dependency, plant-based diets/lifestyles, rabies and enjoyment of sex were sins in that song?
Point 3 - Edgy for the sake of edgy Hazbin Hotel tries to be an adult cartoon, but comes off as something a mentally disturbed teenager wrote during their emo/scene phase. 1 - The swearing and sex jokes. Oh boy. I’ve worked with children under the age of 15 who swear and crack sex jokes better than the adults in this show. The swearing and sex jokes are the only reasons this show couldn’t be aired as a Cartoon Network show aimed at edgy teenagers. It’s so poorly done that it in and of itself takes away from the quality of the show itself. Also, we have a character who’s name is an actual sex joke itself. Vaggie, full name Vagatha - a lesbian sex worker, of course. Fun fact for those who don’t know, but all of her previous character drafts had her name as some form of joke on the word vagina. This isn’t an accident, this is blatant and intentional. Also, here’s a pro tip for you! You can make an adult-oriented show without having swearing, slurs and sex jokes taking up a solid third or more of your script. 2 - The... “Representation”. Yes, Hazbin Hotel has LGBT+ characters! Yes, it has biracial and Latina characters! Charlie is bi, Vaggie is a Latina lesbian, Angel Dust is a gay man, Alastor is ace and biracial, Husk is pan, Niffty is Japanese (YIKES). Except none of it actually matters. No, really. Vivziepop was all like, “btw you can ship w/e, idc! also, i rlly like the fanon version of human alastor (who is whiter than marshmallow fluff even though he’s supposed to be half black)! :)” and threw all that out the window because... Who knows at this point. Now, if you look at the connected series, Helluva Boss, you get Moxie and Millie - an extremely obvious and loving couple. In Hazbin Hotel, you get Charlie and Vaggie who you probably couldn’t tell were a couple without somebody telling you that in the first place, what with all the loveydovey-ness going on with them. In fact, the biggest hint we even get is literally one line. “Life ain’t a musical, hun.” But then again, I’d be more apt to believe Charlie and Vaggie are friends, or Vaggie is pining after Charlie. Also, Charlie is a really bad girlfriend! She lets Vaggie get abused by practically the entire cast without so much as a single word in her defense and ignores everything Vaggie says. It came as no surprise when I remembered hearing about how the only reason these two are a couple is because one of the people on the team thought they were during storyboarding and Vivziepop just went with it. Also, fun fact, Vaggie fits both the angry lesbian and fiery Latina stereotypes. Charlie fits the stereotype for the bisexual cheater, what with how she seems to actually like Alastor more than her own bloody girlfriend. Alastor is canonically ace because he’s too full of himself to be with anyone else. Speaking as somebody who’s ace... WHAT?! As much as I don’t like Charlastor, it’s partially more popular than Chaggie because Vivziepop actually made them act like a couple for an entire musical number. Also, he’s annoying. He not only kept telling Vaggie to smile (heck you dude), he also smacked her butt, which is a form of sexual assault, people. This was all played for laughs, along with Vaggie’s (actually very reasonable) anger. Niffty is Japanese. A yellow-skinned demon who’s boy crazy and obsessed with cleaning... Big yikes. Finally, Angel Dust. The kinky gay man porn star/drag queen/drug addict/prostitute who verbally sexually assaulted two guys. Where do I begin. When it came to this guy, Vivziepop must’ve been like, “Imma throw every stereotype for gay men on this guy and call it a character!” If you look a Helluva Boss again, you get Stolas, who verbally sexually assaults Blitzo over the phone and also cheated on his wife with him in the first place, so this isn’t a one-off. Also, he was originally AFAB, so that whole line about “Why are you all women?” is more than a little heinous and in extremely poor taste.
In conclusion, this show is terrible. Everything about it. It needs some serious reworking, because as it stands, it’s really truly not that great of a creation.
tl;dr: Needs a lot of work and “ThEy’Re In HeLl!!1!!one!!!eleven!!!11″ isn’t even remotely an excuse for the genuine problems in it. Remember, at least one actual human being on Earth, not in Hell, wrote this garbage fire. Also, the animators deserve a higher wage than whatever they’re getting to deal with these designs. I shudder just thinking about animating them, with or without a rig.

Posted this on Facebook, but wanted to share here as well.
Alright so I don't like to post politics on my Facebook for many reasons(and was hoping to post some cool personal updates), but I think I need to speak out on some things that i've been wanting to talk about for years(but have been afraid to do so due to antagonizing people that I am close with in my life). If you have time, please please read as i'm about to say some things i've been wanting to get out for years and i'm about to get real vulnerable here about some subJects that I can no longer be silent about......
The state of the world we are in right now is far too dangerous to ignore, and i'm sick and tired of people in my life who are defending Trump and who have no idea what's going on other than their own personal beliefs they get from Fox News. I'm going to hide this post from family and a bunch of people, but if you see this and are a huge Trump Supporter or something and disagree, we can have a civil debate in my messages, or feel free to remove me if you are going to be rude about it(or ignore it, like I probably usually do for you.) I simply don't have the time, energy, or resolve to get into a long argument, but it is what it is. Feel free to leave a comment though, Just be nice. 
As the protests are going on now in Kenosha Wisconsin after the shooting of James Blake, a far-right militia member about an hour or so ago murdered 5 protesters. These protesters were not causing any damage or any problems, and I saw this as it was happening live on Periscope, no media spin attached.  As many other cities have done, they are fighting for the simple reason that Black Lives Matter, and enough is enough. I'm sick and tired of seeing new names being added to an ongoing list of innocent black lives being murdered. Breonna Taylor. Philandro Castille, Trevon Martin, George Floyd, Sandra Bland, and many more names. Seeing the video of what happened with James hit me even hard then George Floyd for some reason. Maybe it was the fact that gun-shots were featured idk. While I understand the convenient narrative being pushed that rioting is bad, as Martin Luther King Jr says "A riot is the language of the unheard".  Anyone who knows me knows I don't condone violence, as i'm a huge pacifist, and have even had this used against me in my life to take advantage of my kindness. However, who is really listening to black lives when they do try to speak out? Collin Kapernick sat down during the national anthem, he got criticized. So he changed to kneeling, still criticized.  People were(and still are in many instances) peacefully protesting, and many still aren't being heard. I'm studying Psychology as an Undergrad, and it makes sense that when people aren't being heard they tend to lash out and violence often ensues.  That's what tends to happen when your community constantly is having trauma inflicted on them.  I'm not condoning it, but maybe we should listen to people who have been trying to get our attention for years and do something to fix the root cause of this issue.
Most politicians on both sides don't care. Just like Trump didn't care when he's personally made decisions that affect either myself, many of my friends I have made both online and offline, as well as my basic sense of empathy for humanity.  A sampling of these actions include trying to remove DACA, eroding LGBT rights or attacking those in the LGBT community, Trans-Military Ban, Muslim Ban, promoting violence through his Twitter, ruining the mail system that many people rely on for basic needs, saying that there were "good people on both sides" in Charlottesville when Heather Hayer(a Bernie supporter) got run over by a car by Neo-Nazis, gaslighting anyone who disagrees with his views, among others.  It's not a political issue. I don't care if you support Republicans because you believe that "Socialism is a bad economic policy that would ruin our country" or something like that. I'm a Libertarian Socialist, but that's beside the point, vote for who you want. But when Trump systemically comes for my friends and attacks those I love and care about, I'm not going to stay silent. 


Finally, this also ties into my religious faith. Growing up as a Christian, I grew up with the teachings of Jesus Christ and i'm sick and tired of so called "Christians" using their beliefs to try to Justify voting Trump, because they want "A conservative maJority on the Supreme Court" or are "Pro-Choice", or "Mike Pence is a strong Evangelical." Trump is the biggest con artist this country has ever had, and I can't believe so many people I love and care about are falling for this. He doesn't care about Evangelicals. He doesn't have love in his heart, and Jesus would probably be out there with the protesters right now fighting for Change. I had to fight with whether I was still a Christian for many years after graduating High School, due to seeing how so called "Christians" and people I love have so much hate in their heart. I have Just recently reconciled with the fact that there are many other Christians Just like me who want to do what's right. Innocent people are dying from Covid due to our president. He's trying to divide us up in order to win, as that's all he has left. I've been called not a "true Christian" due to my views(which is literally a logical fallacy by the way), and i've gotten so much hate from people due to being Bisexual, a Libertarian Socialist, and a Christian who is mostly alienated from those I grew up with. But idc anymore. I'm not arguing to vote for Biden at all, I personally don't like either candidate. But please, don't vote Donald Trump. I don't know what else to say, but seeing constant hate and divisiveness has really being causing some awful depression lately, and I needed to share. 
I'm going back to bed, and then continue working on my Junior Year Psychology courses that I started Monday with UCF Online. I have known since 2017 I want to work in Mental Health, and we need/will need it more than ever. This post might have a lot of spelling and grammar errors, and normally I would spend time proofreading my post more. But it doesn't matter. Innocent people are dying every day, things like that are insignificant. Make sure you use your platform to do what you can to change the world. Silence is complicity. Black Lives Matter. LGBT lives matter. If you are also a Christian, please consider your actions and how they might be impacting those around you. Because for all you know they are absolutely heartbroken, and have reconsidered whether their morals are in line with the Christian faith. If I can share something as vulnerable as this publicly on Facebook(which could get me in huge trouble with my family), then you can put a little effort in to make some change. Register to vote by mail at vote.gov. Vote the day(or within a few days of) when it arrives, or early-vote/ drop it off to ensure it's counted. Finally, make sure to have these tough conversations with those you care about. Remember it's supposed to be uncomfortable, as creating change around you shouldn't be comfortable.  If you read all this, please stay safe, wear a mask, and consider how your actions affect those around you.

In solidarity,

Alex Morgan

Hey, I just wanted to free myself from the thoughts and all my ibfs and bfs are asleep so yeah, where should I start huh, I am bisexual, and I am questioning it. I mean both genders are fuckin hot but I've never felt it, I mean, I've never felt love for a girl, I had a lot of crushes (boys) and maybe it's just.. I was thinking about it and maybe I just want to be bi but I'm not? I might sound really desperate but idc, and I told a few ppl already that I am bi but.. well I am out of space here
Hi love! I’m glad you want to share this with me and I want to thank you first for trusting me and for letting me help you. Now..you are completely right, both genders are beautiful in their own ways and you might look at other girls or something and think that you like them, but it’s natural to look at someone of your own gender and think how beautiful they are, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you are attracted for them. It is possible that you just think that you are bisexual and that you are confused, especially if you are in puberty, but that’s not a bad thing. Maybe you are bisexual and someday you’ll find some girl crush…but let me tell you this - who cares! You are free to like whoever you like and you don’t have to say I’m straight, bisexual, homosexual…you can’t control your feelings and you don’t have to answer to anyone about that! Like who you like, you don’t have to label yourself, just let your feelings be free and you’ll be happy. Don’t stress yourself about thinking what to call yourself, just be you. If you have anything else to say don’t be afraid to massage me, this is a safe place for everyone!❤❤

For the show/book/fandom game thing, YJ and YYH?
ohboyohboyohboyboyyyyyyyyyohbooyyyyyy
YJ:
CONNER’S BIRTHDAY.
Slap slap kiss is not always a good setup for a romantic relationship unless it’s implied that the slapping is done because both people are denying their feelings. (AND EVEN THEN IT’S OFTEN NOT A HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP DYNAMIC.)I recognize that the writers probably feel that the leadup to the eventual Spitfire kiss was obvious, and that it made a certain amount of sense. I would like to make a motion that they are wrong. Seriously, I’ve seen this three times and apart from “Find your own little spitfire” and ‘Hmmmmm, Artemis hits my arm’, there was like…. no….. romantic subtext. They wanted there to be subtext, so bad, but like… it read… as friendship. I saw needling and banter and eventual respect, but Artemis had a major crush on Conner??? and that was dealt with solely during the ‘Hey are you sure beating bad guys up is the best possible way to deal with your feelings? B/c i mean i’m down but we can talk this out, I’m all ears’ series of events with Zatanna. And it’s…. dropped? And suddenly they’re kissing? And then they have a mutually affectionate relationship after the timeskip? I JUST DON’T AGREE THAT IT’S GREAT ROMANTIC DEVELOPMENT, OKAY (relationship development, sure, but it seems….. off? I AM A SHIPPER OF SPITFIRE, I JUST DON’T SEE IT. I’VE TRIED SO HARD.) So like…. other than aggravating each other and one bioship scene where Wally goes “Hey uh actually I know I’ve given you a hard time but I respect you now” before taking it back because he feels betrayed by her, I’d… either put in more romantic subtext, or REWRITE THE NEW YEAR’S SCENE. AT LEAST MAKE IT AWKWARD AF. COME ON. Like, something like *wally scoops Artemis up in his arms* “Uh, sorry. Reflex. You were the only girl close by and not spoken for, sooooOOO….” Artemis sighs or something, looks mildly exhasperated “So what, are you gonna kiss me or something?” Wally looks hesitant “If… you don’t mind. IMEANICANPUTYOUDO–”arty kisses him “Stop talking.” Wally looks more pleased than he’s ever been “I can do that.” instead of that out of nowhere “I should’ve done this a long time ago” like WHAT? YOU WERE BARELY TOLERATING EACH OTHER FOR HALF THE SEASONIT WASN’T THE TYPE OF ANGER THAT HAD ROMANTIC SUBTEXT I MEAN I KNOW I’M BAD AT THIS BUTC’MON
The fact that Icicle Jr. is a villain because he’s starving for attention is addressed, or at least mentioned, and they give him a freaking break. Like!! this boy!! Just wants a friend! Just wants affection! He never! ever! gets it! He’s pushed around and shoved aside and forgotten! Even by the people he tries to protect! He stood up for and protected Conner and Artemis! and they were both on a mission! literally! to screw! him! over! He was a villain, yes, but he just! wanted to make! his dad proud! I know Aqualad was hella preoccupied and fucking stressed, but have you seen the way that guy reacts to people who’re having a bad time? There’s so much compassion and understanding in his facial expressions. He doesn’t even flinch when Miss Martian reveals her white martian form–and he’s the only one. Notice him! Bring him with you!!! Give him affection! just–just show him Lian! It’ll be amazing, I promise!!!!!!! HE JUST!! WANTS!!! LOVE!!!**this does not dismiss or condone his actions towards Tuppence Terror. However, whenever Artemis tells him he’s gross in the comics? He stops. So I’m not saying his behavior is okay, I’m saying he probably doesn’t have a very good read on people and needs to be told things directly, and Tuppence… never did that? M’gann!Tuppence just grimaced. Actual!Tuppence just kinda brushed him aside. Still doesn’t condone or dismiss his actions, just takes into account the idea that he might not be able to pick up on things like subtext. They think they’re being obvious, and yes! he should back off, he’s a jerk! he should get it! but some people just will not get things until you tell them, that’s just.. not how their brain works… they have to learn first and I’m snowballing down a rabbit trail, ANYWAY. 
The only reason to kill off Garfield Logan’s mom was angst porn. That’s it. They could have kept her around. They’d already deviated from the comic books–Gar’s parents both died, he had to go live with an abusive uncle or something and then he ran away and then he found the Doom Patrol and they sorta adopted him, I think the dad of the team legally adopted him eventually and suddenly he’s very rich, and then he found the Teen Titans. I read like his entire bio when I was in my TT frenzy but it was years ago and I haven’t read all the comics. Marie Logan was one of the only canonically implied bisexual characters to appear on the screen. I say this because they never actually say she’s bi. They do show her kissing Queen Bee, but a) that’s right before she drives off a fucking cliff and b) they only say that Queen Bee can influence men ‘and some women.’ It’s implied that’s romantic. But never explicitly stated, in this particular canon. And although showing a f/f kiss is great, again–context–and also, use the words. Also again, this was only shown outright in the books. The show lightly references it like once. They could have had her begrudgingly allowing Garfield to go live with the team, and throw in a reference like “I have to go write my mom, she’s so–”m’gann cuts in “She nags because she loves you. Like me.” *squishes face* or something “Yeah, yeah” and then Gar goes to communicate with his very concerned mother likewas that the only way you saw him joining the team, writers? Did you really feel that strongly that he would never be allowed to join them if his mother were alive? Could you not have given him a happy relationship with a living mother? Other than the fact that Queen Bee did it, this particular plot point wasn’t relevant to the overall storyline, they did not need to kill her off Note: I do understand that a lot of people love that this showed PTSD in a realistic manner. You know who else shows us stellar examples of very typical PTSD behavior? Superboy. But I’ve never seen anyone talk about that. 
IDK what else. I think I thought of something else while waiting to think of something else, but I didn’t write that thing down. YJ is actually really very good.Low-key wanna see Chalant as endgame rather than DickBabs, but whatever.I THOUGHT OF SOMETHING Someone needs to exorcise the crap out of Nabu’s helmet. Idc that he’s a lord of order. Spirits that control humans are a huge freaking dealbreaker. Call a priest, whatever. I. don’t. care.Speaking of which, here’s one, I suppose: MORE CHARACTERS OF FAITH. PLSKTHXN.
