having writer friends is being like in the world’s tiniest fandom except to get new content you have to beat it out of the author with a stick

I made a bad comic and now you have to look at it

y'know now that i really think about it- its extra funny that AFO tried to kill Deku with a bomb at least twice

Yeah, lets try to kill him with bombs. That he has a conditional immunity to due to being exposed to bombs since the ripe age of 4. like vaccines but for bombs.

while most of the immediate anger towards my maga parents has faded into the usual exhaustion of the day, i still think about them a lot.

having gone no-contact i have no way of knowing how they're viewing the absolute hellscape that is this current administration. are they among the magats realizing that trump doesn't actually give a damn about anything other than his own material gain? or have they managed to dig themselves even deeper into cognitive dissonance?

both of their children don't want anything to do with them anymore. my sister's getting married this december and my parents won't get to be there. they don't even know the date of the ceremony.

in my goodbye letter to them, i was explicit in my reasoning. I told them they were supporting fascism. a year before we cut ties, my sister and i made it clear that we'd walk away if our parents kept voting for these dangerous people. my parents have no excuse to claim they don't know why my sister and i cut them out of our lives. they know full well.

and i can't help but to keep wondering if that's enough? if the loss of both of their children have forced my parents to finally LOOK at what they voted for. Look and find a way to atone.

when i was still so so so angry at them, i wanted my parents to realize how badly they fucked up and i wanted them to SUFFER in that guilt. i wanted them to agonize over what they did to push their children away and tip this country into a dictatorship. i fully admit that while there were practical reasons to go no-contact (and a history of abuse that further justifies it), one of the reasons i did it because i just wanted some way to punish my parents. I was so angry i wanted to force them to experience even half the pain they've inflicted on my sister and i, whether directly or by the way they voted.

now i just... i don't know. life doesn't work that way. people rarely realize how badly they hurt you. my parents very likely are hurting, missing their children, but... is it worth it? beyond my own safety and satisfaction... did it accomplish anything?

is it misguided to even hope it accomplished anything?

if you’re a baby trans and you haven’t started smoking cigarettes or vaping yet don’t. it’s actually not that hot or interesting. It will just cause you ungodly frustrations and suffering and cost you a bunch of money and be next to impossible to quit

For caitvi kinktober I’m proposing my idea for a fic where Cait and Vi want to try bdsm but don’t have a good way to always be expressing consent, so Cait shares a dream she had about an alternate universe where they have these things called traffic lights and they then proceed to use the colors from these lights to express consent

Does everyone have something you'd be kind of curious to try out for a little bit, just to see what it's like, but that you 100% never will because you rationally know that it's actually legit dangerous and that you cannot just "try it a little bit" just to see what it's like?

I've always been kind of curious about what it would be like to join a cult. Like I know that it's like those underwater whorls that pull you down in a blink and you're never going to fight your way back to the surface again, so I'm absolutely not going to fuck with that shit, but I'm pretty sure I'd be really good at being in a cult.

The haters are trying to put a cup over me

[vaguelyaperson]

i was opening up the nature center and a little wasp flew by while i unlocked the door so i let him out. then i looked down, and there was a spider, a millipede, and two rollie-pollie bugs waiting at the door and they all walked out in a line like they’d been at a party together overnight.

it’s been two weeks and i can’t stop thinking about it.

Almost a million protestors in Israel against the war today

A minimum of 300 thousand in Tel Aviv alone, probably closer to 500 thousand

300 thousand Israelis is a little over 3 percent of the Israeli population; if there was an American protest of that magnitude today that would be almost 11 million protestors

Almost a million protestors is 10% of the population, which would be 34.2 million Americans protestors

This is unprecedented

If y'all would just listen to what the actual Israelis want, you'd understand that WE WANT THIS WAR TO END

They both suck at giving each other gifts but they look so pleased with themselves, neither of them could outright refuse
