(Not Exclusively) A Ravenclaw Problem

Reading a book with the dialogue in a different dialect for hours, and when you put it down, you can’t stop thinking in that accent, and you can barely suppress the urge to talk like the characters

people who don't wear glasses who are writing characters who wear glasses;

they get fogged up when we drink hot beverages. they get smudged for no reason. we will push them up using anything in our area (i.e shoulder, whatever is in my hand, scrunching my nose up so they get pushed up, etc.). they get knocked off our faces all. the. fucking. time. when we change clothes we either take them off or they fall off when we pull our shirts off. we have to clean them after being in the rain. we own multiple pairs of them, not just one lone pair for our whole lives. most people don’t wear them in the pool, but some have extra old pairs for the pool (like me). some people take them off during sex, that’s fine! but some people keep them on. they don’t get squished into your face when you kiss (most of the time. at least from what i’ve experienced and i’ve got some mf big glasses). if we look down and look back up while you talk/to peek up at something, we will just peek blindly over the top of them. we clean them on whatever item of clothing is closest. some of us have prescription sunglasses and some of us wear contacts when we need to wear sunglasses. please keep some of these in mind when you write characters with glasses cause y'all who have 20/20 vision keep telling me all characters sleep in their glasses and own the same singular pair from age 6-25 and they never clean them.

( there’s this but you missed a few iconic glasses traits - “where’d I put my glasses” (is wearing them) - new glasses getting scratched on basically nothing. where’d the nick come from? we just don’t know. - forgetting you’re wearing synthetic material and just smudge the junk on your glasses around - after doing so, proceeding to hunt down any friend who is wearing a more cottony material - getting eyelashes on your glasses - stabbing yourself in the face with the arm of your glasses - “woah are you blind?” - “how many fingers am I holding up??” - walking into a warm room from the cold and suddenly being unable to see because your glasses fogged up - going outside and everything is Super Crisp 1080p - having three pairs of glasses and putting all of them at once - “aw dude you have transition lenses? lucky.” - the non-glasses scrutinising squint - taking off your glasses and suddenly you’re a different entity entirely - if you’re too good for taking off your glasses when dressing/undressing, realising you didn’t pull the collar of a shirt out enough and subjecting to your fate )

-For female characters wearing eye makeup is pretty much useless

- the reason why is because no matter what we do, the mascara will smear on our glasses

- thinking “Oh, there’s a little smudge. I’ll just clean it quickly”, then taking the glasses off and wondering how the hell you could see with what looks like three layers of dirt on them

- giving your loved one a little kiss but in the wrong angle so their nose touches your glasses

- the look™ when you’re in your bed lying on the side with your glasses on (aka the glasses are skewed)

-sleeping in glasses fucking hurts… well, not anymore, but it used too

-if you have long eyelashes, having to push your glasses down your nose so they dont constantly rub each other, then having to push them up cuz you cant see

-WHY WONT YOU STAY ON MY FACE?!?!?!

-*they tilt crooked slightly* oh wow, And… now Im falling over

-having transitions and right after walking into a building you can’t see because they’re still dark

-forgetting where you put them then having to either ask for help or judge your entire surroundings

-dont like contacts? like cosplaying? guess what! you’re blind now!

-trading glasses with other glasses wearers to see how blind your friends are

-when there’s a smudge that just. Won’t. Go. Away.

-“hey do you have lens cleaner?”

-your old glasses become your back up pair in case your current ones break

-metal and plastic frames are very different and most people have a preference

-for some, having to go get tested every year or so to see just how much worse your sight got, and then waiting weeks until the new lenses are ready

Y’all forget the best one

-people randomly removing your glasses from your face and putting them on only to say ‘why do you wear glasses?? You’re not even blind.’

And whenever you transition from a cold environment to a warm environment or vice versa, you are out of commission for like 10 minutes unless you have a cleaning cloth, cottony clothing, or could risk smudges that will bug you for the rest of the day.

-“hey can I wear you’re glases?” proceeds to take glasses off of you face before you answer

-can cause headaches if you wear them to much

-can cause headaches if you dont wear them enough

As someone who has been living with severe suicidal ideation my entire life I wanna tell you all something, you don’t have to stay alive for yourself. People will say it’s a bad idea to live for external things because they’re temporary, and it’s true living for yourself is ideal but if you’re not to that point yet that’s ok too. 

I’ve lived for my dog for the past 4 years, before that I lived for my snakes, before that I lived for my cat. You can live for whatever needs you and whatever matters to you. Live for your best friend, live for your plants, live for your pets, live for your animal crossing town. Live for whatever keeps you alive and the day will come when you can live for yourself.

This is something everyone should see. Thank you for sharing this.

Transformers kept me alive. When the 2007 movie was announced I was going through an incredibly hard time emotionally. I saw the preview and every time I thought about killing myself I thought, “but then I won’t get to see this thing I’ve always wanted to see, good or not.” And it got me through.

I’m in a place where I live for myself now, but don’t toss away a life preserver just because other people think you should be able to swim on your own.

don’t toss away a life preserver just because other people think you should be able to swim on your own

THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS

I can say that for myself, waiting to see how all these Marvel films turn out has been a hell of a life preserver for me

Yeah. Whatever it is you gotta do to keep yourself alive, cling to it. The “reason to smile” tag equates to a “reason to live”. It is those connections outside of our ownselves that can give us the ability to live.

In case anyone is having a bad night:

in this essay I will thank you for coming to my ted talk

I think I just got whiplash

This is like the text equivalent of when you go to shoot a rubber band off your fingers and it gets caught and stays looped around your thumb.

not to be an asshole, but if you’re gonna make a post that’s super long - either in text or with pictures, PLEASE either tag it as “long post” or put it under a “read more”

nothing frustrates me more than when it takes a full minute to scroll past one single post on my dash

There’s a fic on fanfiction(.)net that I’ve kept tabs on for years to see if it’s been updated or not. While I’m no longer even in the fandom it’s written for, it just has one of the greatest storylines I’ve ever read. Last time it was updated was 2011.

The other day, I decided to reread the entire thing and leave a very in-depth review of what I thought of each chapter. I also mentioned how I started reading it when I was 13 and am now 21, but always came back to see if it was ever finished because I loved it so dearly.

Today, said author sent me a private message saying that her analytics showed that the story was still getting views even after all these years, but no one ever bothered to leave reviews other than “update soon!!!”, so she never felt motivated enough to finish it. She said that me reviewing every single chapter with lengthy paragraphs made her cry and meant the world to her. She also mentioned that she felt encouraged to write the two remaining chapters needed to complete the story and that she would send me a message the night before she updates the fic.

I’m literally sobbing. I’m so excited :’)

Please always remember to leave a review when reading fanfiction!!! It means a lot to a writer.

Seriously, this is what keeps us going; YOUR COMMENTS. 

And you think my ranting about it is just being salty! It’s not! Reviews can mean the difference between feeling motivated and feeling out of place.

It’s how I finished a fic after it sitting unfinished for half a year. Got a long ass review that gave me ideas and then I wrote the last chapter.

I’ve always admired the mascot of the Burrito King restaurant on Sunset in LA so I did a couple of my own interpretations of him. The first one is more in line with the original pose, while in the second one he’s wrapped up like a burrito in a regal robe while carrying a sceptre with golden ends shaped like an onion, cilantro, and a tomato.

I was trying to channel a bit of Chuck Jones with these, so in keeping with the classic cartoon feel I didn’t render too much and I left the colors relatively flat.

I’d like to think the Burrito King is a fair if somewhat smug and aloof ruler. But don’t you dare cross him or he’ll throw you in a dungeon like he did the Sunset Foot Clinic mascot.

There is NO statistical or concrete proof that most people who identified as asexual during their teens realized that they werent actually ace as they grew up.

There is NO statistical or concrete proof that most people who identified as asexual during their teens actually did it bc they were suffering from internalized homophobia and werent actually ace

There is NO statistical or concrete proof that teens were more likely to misidentify as ace than any bi,gay,trans etc

YET the fact that a large group of people are willing to throw ALL ace teens under the bus and are willing to ignore the abuse and trauma ace teens might be exposed to if they arent taught about asexuality or discouraged from identifying with it because of these HYPOTHETICALS and strawmans  is proof that these people really dont care about “protecting the teens” AT ALL .bc then they would also take ace teens into consideration

PLEASE stop listening to supporting these shitty people who try to use the excuse of “Im thinking about the kids!!1″ to hide and propagate their bigotry. Ace teens deserve better.

Because Crofters is the only belly I will put in my… wait that’s not right.

I will physically bite you!

This is my intellectual side. My hopes, my dreams, my creativity.

Lying and deceiving his way into the castle and getting the pizza.

How about we practice with my friend… Val.

Sure, have you heard of blood diamonds? They’re delicious.

A little clarity always hurt everyone.

I’m feeling all types of badass. *motivational 80s music*

So I’ve decided to duck out. That’s right. Quack quack motherfu-

This is so cursed
