Nevermind about that previous depressing post about my 30th birthday. Turns out the cure for an existential crisis is megafauna skeleton.

If you're ever worried about the future just remember ancient sloths could weigh up to 900 lbs.

ok, so—

(cw for alcohol, implied transphobia & reference to suicidal ideation)

you emigrate when you are six. this is where, later, you will really think of your life as beginning, even though you don't remember much; nausea, gulls, huddling under your father's big red patched coat and the baby squalling constantly. your parents were following the trade winds, and they didn't really mean to stay, but time passes and they become stuck here. as do you, in your own time.

#tl;dr: local nonbinary tax clerk has the worst year of their life and realises that they're a tar pit of a human being#tysm for the ask Sacha! it means a lot that you're interested in my awful little ttrpg character <3#please do not feel obligated to read through all of this something just. took over me. and would not stop.#tbc Kirrin's life is also absolutely a slapstick comedy. last week their evil boss wanted them to run an errand#so she fell through their ceiling at 3am into their bed in order to tell them.#and was then nearly seen walking out of Kirrin's bedroom. horrors for all involved.#oh & in case it wasn't clear—Kirrin's world & the cultures within it operate on quite different gender paradigms from our own#voices from beyond#K#age of unity

I don’t know how to feel about this Eridan because reasons.

#eridan ampora#homestuck#homestuck fanart#how can I express to others the complexities of my sadness#without coming across as trite#or self important#it’s actually funny that I was drawing Eridan while I felt like that#that deep understanding of how unlikable you’re appearing to others#juxtaposed with an inability to stop yourself from continuing to be pathetic and ugly#you talk to so many people about the same thing over and over#feeling it bubble at the back of your throat like tar in every conversation#and you’ll see it on their faces#the pity#the annoyance#you can’t stop it from bubbling though#you can’t stop yourself from spilling over#idk if this counts as trauma dumping#tw vent#just in case#I Guess

sorry but if the monolith robot is on the wet planet, it's case not tars please remember this

tars is everyones favorite special smartass and it's deserved, but case is a good boy too that is also deserving of our love, don't forget him

#and they are married 💖#interstellar#they help raise the colony kids and case is the one that politely suggests after the human scientists they start naming the kids#after the other robots#kipp is the first#at least kipp is a passable name once we get to tars jr its over
