Reality is hard for otaku. Manga/anime, fanfic, games, art, music, Japanese translations and other geeky language stuff.

When you're tempted to buy fan merch pajamas but you have no idea how to explain it to your normie hubs which means you will never wear it which defeats the purpose of buying it in the first place and hence is a waste of money but your inner fangirl is still screaming about how cute the pjs are and how you really REALLY want to wear them to sleep and it's literally the last day to order and---

Who decided we have to give up pure and wholesome things just to grow up? Sleeping with a little Pikachu plushie does not mean I don’t also make my own doctor appointments.

reblogging because I think there needs to be more notes and more people comfortable with the idea that adulthood is a lie.

Adulthood requires taking on new responsibilities, both personal and social.

It has nothing to do with your hobbies, media preferences, or appreciation for cuddling little Pikachu plushies whatsoever. Adults are allowed to be happy and watch Kipo and wear candy necklaces or whatever little things bring them joy.

I don’t know why so many people think that adulthood means you have to be miserable and eschew little joys, but those people are wrong.

Being that person right on the border of millennial and gen x, spending 10 min trying to figure out which reaction I should have to this.

To my fellow creators,

You are not factories. You are not engines of production. Inspiration and creativity move as the tides; they ebb and flow whether we wish them to or not. You are not obligated to pump out endless streams.

The cupbearer's chalice is often empty, for the gods drink deeply from it, and it takes time for it to be filled again.

Rest. Find calm. Create again not when asked, but when called by your own fingers that itch to create once more.

This. This is beautiful!
