i feel like i should clarify: i don't actually headcanon venti as being aroace. the flag is only in my icon because i am. i actually headcanon him as being allo precisely because i feel like romantic and sexual attraction would be Very Distressing Emotions for him specifically to have. which then just circles back around to me being aroace in a very convoluted way

bitches see a story about friendship and then focus on romance. you do NOT understand the power of friendship

Shout out to "i wanna socialize with my Internet friends but I don't have anything to talk about", gotta be one of my least favorite predicaments

romance is a type of friendship and im sick of people pretending like they're two seperate categories. your romantic partner is Supposed to also be your friend like at the very least why are we pitting romance AGAINST friendship when they r intertwined???? romantic partners are also friends and u can have romance with ur friends stop acting like these bitches are seperate forces

being a queer person who really likes a m/f ship blows because the minute you step outside your painstakingly curated circle of t4t bisexuals you find out all the straight people are out here drawing your faves like this

I think a lot of the appeal of focalette for me is that I think focalors could develop a deep appreciation and understanding and admiration for neuvillete through watching and seeing him enact Justice while Neuvilette had 20 minutes with focalors and she changed him from a Kinsey scale 6 to a 5 and then killed herself

Japan is somewhat bigger than the UK but also seems to have proportionally more wilderness? Actually idk if that's true. Hold on.

Ok, yeah, seems like it. And Britain famously has no (historically) unmanaged land; like all the woodlands and stuff have been cultivated for human use since prehistory. Whereas Japan has genuine wilderness like the US does. I mean obviously a lot of places in the US that were considered wilderness by the colonists were actually already extensively managed but that's a different thing.

Anyway as an American this is one of the things that's like deeply foreign in a very fundamental way about the UK to me.

Are there any other countries with no true wilderness?

was talking to a coworker and realised i could not for the life of me remember his name but i was too embarrassed to ask because we've spoken multiple times so mid-conversation i started concocting a plan to nudge the conversation towards the ID photos on our building passes so that i could be like oh my ID photo is awful haha the camera they use to take these has a real talent for making me look as unphotogenic as possible and then he would say oh yes me too haha everyone says that (because they do) and then i would be able to say well let me see yours it can't be as bad as mine! and he would show me his ID because we are coworkers and why wouldn't he and this would allow me to see his building pass which of course would have his name on it and then i would be able to say well yours is perfectly nice it must be me that's the problem! and then we would have a polite chuckle about it and i would have his name without needing to ask for it and he would be none the wiser and all would be well but then before i could execute this fine plan a little voice in my head went "so this is some light yagami bull shit you are about to pull" which was such a violent reality check it shocked me completely out of my embarrassment and i went "hey im so sorry your name has slipped my mind could you remind me" and he did and it was fine.
