This is so good! I love the quirk's connections to his appearance and nickname.

bitches really listing Stardew Valley down as one of their calming games when you’re supposed to play it like you’re gonna die every 11 minutes, like an entire operation with at least a dozen tabs open and the townie’s favorite gifts on a spreadsheet and each crops yield-to-time ratio ranked and memorized
Me: "I never showed signs of being nonbinary as a child"
Me as a child: *is obsessed with skorts*
Rocks sink in water so Bakugo gave him a little help.

hhh i hate to have to do this again but my other post died out and im still struggling tbqh. i got enough to help me get out of the negative, and to pay off my utility bill but i honestly just need to eat now. idc if you order me something or donate, i just need to eat. my mental health is declining so violently. bc i haven’t been eating regularly.
i’m a queer, nb person who is unable to work a retail/fast food job bc of the limitations of my body and the pain i’m in every day (broken back in 2 places). i do online surveys but they’re not really enough to take care of all the things i need to take care of.
if you donate and you reach out to me, i will draw you something. i can’t take on commissions rn bc the pressure is more than i can handle but if you send me funds and want me to draw something for you in return please just reach out. anything helps, any amount willl let me get something to eat. for proof, this is my bank acct rn.
my paypal is paypal.me/tilianjustice
i also have venmo but idk what the phone number attached to it is so paypal is preferable. but the venmo is @RK800
thank you in advance, literally anything helps ;;’
no cops at pride just sam wilson with a baseball bat
The internet has ruined me. Everytime I see "yt" I read it as 'white'. I could be looking at anything and I'm like "What did white people do this time!?" assuming it's about racism even if there is a YouTube link right there. Why do people write it like that anyway??
A comic redraw I did for mealz_on_wheelz_ on Instagram (w permission ofc!). Aizawa really is that little girl that dealt with a crush by writing ‘get out of my school’
I just watched infinity train season two, and the main character is amazing! When you leave you a cult you don't just have to rebuild how you view the world, but also yourself. You have to stop trying to change yourself. You have unlearn the teachings that condemned individualality. You have to loudly scream that "I exist!" The character's whole arc revolves around these ideas making her extremely relatable.
Characters that I hold close to my heart as an ex-cult kid
The entire cast of The Path (Hulu) • Venus, Jupiter and Neptune of We Know The Devil (PC game) • Rapunzel (fairy tale) • Lapis Lazuli of Steven Universe • Aziraphale and Crowley of Good Omens (Gaiman & Prachett) • Lake of Infinity Train • Bucky Barnes of Marvel • Mark Grayson of Invincible (Kirkman) • Abigail Hobbs of Hannibal (NBC)
Yes please @ me if you do!

I worked so hard on it I even added descriptions to the answers
If I had actually read the post I would have known this is a knowledge test, but I saw uquiz and immediately thought "lol which pasta am I?" Needless to say I was disappointed when I received a grade instead of my pastasona.

When the full body of the 10th anniversary Sakura came out, I thought she looked like a sunset and that inspired me to try something I’ve never tried before. Hope compression doesn’t affect it too badly.
I can not explain how validating it is to see other nonbinary lesbians with religous trauma on here. Especially ex jw or ex cult ones. After realizing I was in a cult I thought, "There is so much crazy in my life. Will anyone understand my hyper specific experiences?" Apparently the answer is yes and it feels amazing.
Psss pssss psss meet me up in the ace tent every Friday night for frog trivia
People saying being gay is a choice and then show me characters like this:
You think anyone can choose to ignore her! Smh 😔
I'm learning that being in a high control group has made me a fantastic actor. I had doubts for years and while I felt a lot of guilt, I also just couldn't make myself feel or act how I knew I was excepted to. So I leaned hard into the shy sweet girl archetype. Sure they think I'm at least 5 years younger than I am, but I can do the bare minimum and ignore uncomfortable topics out of "nervousness".
The real me is opinionated, blunt, and consistently makes jokes. My family will tell others this, but they don't often believe them. It goes unquestioned and gives me some freedom. Still, I will be extremely relieved when I can retire the role.
It's interesting to me how people in high control groups believe they are being persecuted despite being heavily supported by governments and their culture. From my own experience, I think its easy to pretend your feelings of embarrassment caused by your own doubts about the group, are actually a result of "the world looking down on us". I would see people joking about us or about other Christians and feel terrible because I agreed with their points, but internalized it as "they hate me". Still, seeing content like this helped sort through my feelings even though at the time I wished it would just go away.
First off, excellent take. Authorial intent is relevant and interesting to discuss, as with the internet, it's easier for creators to interact with their audience.
Secondly this was so comforting! I feel like I now have permission to unapologetically revel in my comfort media, created by fans or otherwise.
Something about kirishima and bakugou being in love makes me so emotional. Even though it's just a ship, the fan works I see for it feel so authentic to me. I can imagine the relationship actually functioning and it makes me get sappy about the experiences I feel I missed out on being in the closet.
In conclusion, am I a repressed gay projecting onto fictional characters? Yes. Does that make them or the artists/writers any less precious to me? No.

Yo, I saw The Mitchell's vs the Machines and it was so good. Even tho I love when a character's sexuality is shown more openly, the way it was slipped in means none of my family noticed. Yay, no homophobic comments for me lol
CW: Religious Abuse
Hey, it's my time to vent to the void called the internet. So I'm a pimo exjw and it sucks. Only recently did I realize I was in a cult but now I just feel stuck. I am forced to feign faith, hide my activities, and process alone. If I don't I will be shunned and possibly kicked out with no support.
The cult raised me with the idea that obedience was my whole worth, so my mom found me and the rest of my family easy to abuse. I can't stand having to pretend to worship the god that wanted me to let her hurt me. Even after I set boundries and shook up the status quo, my father let's her hurt him because he knows he will never be able to divorce her and wants to fix her.
I also get torn up when I think about how much being queer in that environment fucked with me. I wanted so bad to be 'normal', and tried to 'fix' myself. I was told your environment and bad habits make you lgbt and that it would probably be a phase. But then time based while I tried to be as perfect as possible. It wouldn't change. I told my parents thinking it would be a phase, who despite saying 'only acting on your feelings is bad', told me to keep it secret to avoid harrassment from other people in the cult. I was regularly exposed to anti-LGBT rhetoric and hate speech from the people closest to me.
Despite all this I wanted so bad to be good for my parents. I cringe thinking of all the things I did in that aim. Who I treated unfairly or had to abandon because they were "bad association". My experience is by no means the worst you will hear, but its telling. I've been taking a lot of comfort in the exjw community and hope this can at least validate someone else.
Tumblr is so fun. Like obviously incredibly cursed but it feels comfy. Unlike Twitter it seems like people just want to enjoy things in peace now.
