death note is literally a comedy
the ENTIRETY of Death Note is just a 37-episode long version of this
he says i hate everyone except you and that is addictive and that is kind of romantic and beautiful because you're young and you're kind of a sarcastic asshole too and you don't like bad boys, per say, but you don't really like good ones either. and you like that you were the exception, it felt like winning.
except life is not a romance book, and he was kind of being honest. he doesn't learn to be nice to your friends. he only tolerates your family. you have to beg him to come with you to birthday parties, he complains the whole time. you want to go on a date but - people are often there, wherever you're going. he's just so angry. about everything, is the thing. in the romance book, doesn't he eventually soften? can't you teach him, through your own sense of whimsy and comfort?
at first - you know introverts often need smaller friend groups, and honestly, you're fine staying at home too. you like the small, tidy life you occupy. you're not going to punish him for his personality type.
except: he really does hate everyone but you. which means he doesn't get along with his therapist. which means he has no one to talk to except for you. which means you take care of him constantly, since he otherwise has no one. which means you sometimes have to apologize for him. which means he keeps you home from seeing your friends because he hates them. you're the single exception.
about a decade from this experience, you'll type into google: how to know if a relationship is codependent.
he wraps an arm around you. i hate everyone except you. these days, you're learning what he's actually confessing is i have very little practice being kind.
I mean I think people should curate their own fandom experience and whatnot and it's perfectly fair to just avoid things one is uncomfortable with...
That being said. From personal experience? Immunizing myself to all my discomforts by browsing through pixiv and kink memes with raised eyebrows while searching for things I am interested in back when tagging was non-existent has really made my fandom experience much more pleasant nowadays.
I have preferences, for sure. But I have no fear. I have no cringe. The filthiest, grossest fanwork holds no powers over me. I am a god.
Like honestly dl;dr and block on sight is respectable and all but I genuinely think everyone could just benefit from purposefully exposing yourself to your nOTP and non-triggering squicks sometimes? (And obviously don't go bother the creators for it.) If only so that it makes it easier/safer to search for content you like without living in fear of accidentally glimpsing something you hate and having that ruin your day.
Training oneself to be comfortable with mild discomfort is a highly under-rated skill in this day and age
I think its interesting that "desensitized" is a dirty word now. Like...when I did my therapy, being desensitized was the GOAL. It was the fucking dream.
But also, desensitization essentially gives you the agency to say, "okay so that felt bad, now I can either put it away, really explore and understand what that discomfort is trying to tell me, or discard it." Idk...some of yall are so fucking distressed all the time and you call it "being normal" or "being a decent human being" but...it isn't normal to be distressed all the time. It isn't decent to be distressed all the time. And like...I have disords and chemical shit going on in my brain but if you don't have all that....I think you need to look at your distress and ask why it is actually enduring and who benefits from you being distressed (lessons from a pre-bush era american).
truth trying to go back into her well after dealing with mankind
Remembering the one Hades and Persephone fanfic retelling I read where the author had clearly never eaten a pomegranate in their life and just had the character in the Persephone role take a bite out of the side like an apple
laptop overheating?? pour water on it to cool it down!
i trusted you
Do not trust people like me. I will take you to museums, and parks, and monuments, and kiss you in every beautiful place, so that you can never go back to them without tasting me like blood in your mouth. I will destroy you in the most beautiful way possible. And when I leave you will finally understand, why storms are named after people
im having a moment
Did you guys know the “Sickos” artist made a Sicko thats a WGA screenwriter on strike (said comic artist is a The Onion satirist comic artist and his name is Stan Kelly)
And honestly? What a mood. Haha YES indeed.
some time ago i introduced the phrase "food pact" to my friends as a shorthand for "i'll go make and eat food if you also make and eat food" and ever since then ive just started incorporating more pacts into my life. stay hydrated pact. stretch break pact. stop doomscrolling and go to bed pact. we need to bring this back in vogue more people should be making pacts imo
the best part of this is when you ask "who wants to do a shower pact" and you get a half dozen friends all rolling up saying "the pact is sealed". faustian behavior
imagine you're in a timeloop and everything goes exactly the same every time, except for a random user that just posts completely differently each loop. sometimes they don't post at all. they never post about the timeloop, though
during one loop you message them to ask if they know what's going on and they immediately block you and go back to posting
I love that amid the stress of being caught in a temporal paradox you are checking tumblr dot com
nothing better to do
this weed tastes like the lake I nearly drowned in as a kid
I've been staring at these tags for a while @persnicketypansy.
@slamjamjordan hi yes sorry I’m just. it is 3 am and your tags have been living rent free in my head for six hours
death kisses with tongue
yes I promise
and when it pulls away it’s taken everything with it
all your unfinished sketches and stories
every idea you had, every promise you made. every plan, every dream
and the feel of your skin and the sound of your laugh
Tomorrow a package will be delivered with your name on it
and your friend will fine your hair on their couch
another will stop by to return a sweater that still smells like you
death reaches down your throat and takes your love away
and it tastes like the puddles on the cement behind the school
like the battery you licked at your grandparents house. like cigarette smoke, like the seatbelt strap, like your fathers cologne, like aspirin
death kisses, yes, with tongue
if that brings you comfort I will swear it
by the shoe you lost when you were ten
that someone found who will not know you are gone
and by the stuffed animal you never named
and by the unused shampoo in the bottle your roommate will not have the heart to throw out
and I will swear it by your handwriting on a list your mother with find in two years
that you left by accident in her car
and she will think of you every time she buys laundry detergent, oranges, hot sauce
the way you think of death every time you see a body of water
the way you ask for a promise
because hey, even if it’s death, at least someone is kissing you
right?
"it's not queer fiction unless the queerness is explicitly declared in the text according to currently accepted terminology and in a way that meets the approval of the entire audience" I mean follow your heart I guess but I trust myself as a queer person to recognise queer themes
"but doesn't this risk giving the author undue credit for queer representation" I do not care about the author
wait till the tumblr girlies find out that in binary star systems sometimes one star will basically eat the other and kill them both - resulting in the most powerful thing a star could ever do in its life.
you can become the greatest reckoning in the world but it will cost you your life and your partner’s life. or do you wish to simply circuit each other until you both die - never truly touching
Hey guys . I'm back. you wanna know something that would make this post even more yuri
fun fact Did you know that Big stars after they did can (not always) turn into something called a neutron star (most dense Object so fucking hot they merge protons & electrons into neutrons) anyways . these things can also form Binary systems that then rotate Super fast into each other and kill themselves. and you wanna know that best part?
that's where we think every element heavier than iron comes from. your smart phone is made from undead yuri that then died again. think about that
this might be the oldest jpeg I can remember. had this bad boy saved to my computer when I was like 10
Well, time to call the expert
