The YouTube content creator community was wracked by macabre tragedy this morning after Amelia Bedelia was instructed to hang streamers for a six year old’s birthday party

More vibrant “dreamy” version version of the drawing of @/caffeinelapin’s Daphne done in procreate.
Tried drawing @/caffeinelapin’s Daphne in procreate. Still feel like I’m fighting procreate’s controls, but I think this came out ok despite that. Messy as always but I guess that’s my trademark lmao
Imagine you're several millennia years old and learning that the Legendary Sword That Seals The Darkness not only breaks like a toothpick but is also wielded by a twink
how the fuck does a relationship just run its course
Guys. It's not a bad thing. It sounds very frightening, especially when you're young and the worst thing you can imagine is becoming vulnerable enough to love deeply and then end up single again, but the reality is a long term relationship is about more than love. It's a long-term project of building a life together, and that requires being in sync on a number of levels, including some choices that cannot be reversed (like having children, for example). When you reach that point and realize you and your partner are out of sync, you have these choices:
1. One of you completely submits to the other and get strongarmed into a life you didn't want, leading to a lot of grief and suppressed anger;
2. Neither of you fully commits to anything, leading to constant tension, arguments, and false starts;
3. You come to the realization that you and your partner are incompatible, and in order for the two of you to continue to live happy, fully realized lives, you must part ways.
1 and 2 are disastrous. They hurt you and your partner and your loved ones, they lead to hatred. 3 sounds cold, impossible, incompatible with fairytale romance, and it's not easy, but it's the only one that's rooted in actual mature love, the only one that will let you both grow and flourish. And you can still love that person after the fact. Love is not a finite thing! It can change forms and directions, and the surest way to destroy it, to grind it into nothingness, is to refuse to let it do so. A relationship that ends will always be a valuable stage that helped you become who you are. There's no point in your entire life where you and your partner will fossilize and freeze in place, and neither will any relationship. You will never be fully able to love and be loved until you can embrace impermanence, and be honest about yourself and what you want, and understand that isn't the same as failure, or the end of love.
