#Preferring Peace

I'm a very observant person. So if you think I didn't notice, I did... I just decided to keep quiet and avoid drama.

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 used to think it was romantic too and then i was like. now i see it as a HUGE red flag #writeblr #it is also almost EXCLUSIVELY said by immature ppl who think this is normal #fyi even if u think it's funny and ur like 'im an introvert it's just TRUE' like. you need therapy (ily tho) #healed introversion is just ''i would prefer to be by myself'' not ''i hate every person'' ... hate is not normal. that is not healthy #im sorry. i know it feels accurate. but if you're walking around with that kind of rage.... #1. you're making a LOT of assumptions about every single person u have ever met. which is often unfair and unkind #and also usually involves judging people based on their worst moments or little mistakes #2. you are being unfair to the person who is ur ''exception'' #3. there is a VAST difference between ''ur my favorite person'' and ''the ONLY person i like.'' #idk i think this is just a personal bias thing tbh #im sure there are people who have this experience normally #but i have YET to find a man who thinks like this and ISNT absolute DOGSHIT. although tbh.... like. im sure he exists #when u hit like 30 some of the things that were once kind of hot now just sound fucking exhausting. like ''im in a band'' #edit in the tags: i used to kind of be like this too. but the thing is that like. my life became so much more peaceful #once i started believing that people are generally good. like yes i am mad at the world at large #but it's just.... a very hard way to live. you're not a bad person or wrong for the ways other people hurt you and taught you to be angry. #but that anger will continue to hurt YOU. it will punish YOU. it will prevent YOU from making new deep connections. it will protect you yes #but it will also cause MASSIVE blowback. bc if you lose the One Person... your life will fall apart. i know this personally. #i really recommend just trying to be... cautiously optimistic instead. like. yes #people can be horrible and cruel and there are some communities (incels for example) that aren't worth that optimism #but i think like... most people will hold a door for you . most people want to help you find your wallet . #i hope one day you are able to find peace. i hope that rage eventually smooths over. i know how hard it is PERSONALLY #and i know what must have happened to you. and im deeply deeply sorry we share the same wound. #but i promise - sometimes we all need someone else to help us carry the weight. eventually the rage has to die so that we can let help in #i had to spend years biting at outstretched hands. i still often do. im still very wary . and my heart breaks that you flinch too. #here's the thing: i don't blame you. but we were both acting out of fear and pain. .... not out of healthy behavior. and ... change #was needed. i needed change too. rage was useful for a while. then it just left me isolated and bitter. i had to (with effort) #choose to let that rage go. and let people in . VERY SLOWLY THO LOL

A comic to properly introduce Prof. (Austin) Maple. He is absolutely the guy to run to his discord friends in a crisis - for better or for worse...

If you want to know exactly why this is happening to him, take a look at the original character plan I made when designing him here.

#my art #fat art #weight gain #weight gain art #male weight gain art #mpl tag #fat belly #instant weight gain #magic weight gain #yes that is professor magnolia from galar. yes she plays minecraft. yes she prefers to play on peaceful. #no i do not know why pike queen lucy is here either and i also dont know why she uses tone indicators #girl dresses as and works/lives in a building that looks like her fave pokemon shes got that good good autism yk i can see it for her <3

the meaning behind the kanji of mizu and taigen's names is literally not ever gonna leave my mind.

like are you kidding me. mizu is 水 ("water"), we all know that. but what drives me insane is that taigen is 泰源 ("peaceful origin").

so when you put them together ("tai" 泰 + "mizu" 水), you literally get "peaceful water."

MIZU ALONE IS JUST MIZU, BUT PUT TAIGEN NEXT TO HER AND IT'S MIZU, BUT AT PEACE.

ALSO, both "tai" 泰 and "gen" 源 contain the "mizu" 水 character as a radical. for those unfamiliar with japanese or even chinese, a radical basically means a building block for another character; so in this case, the kanji for "tai" and "gen" both use the kanji for "mizu" as one of their building blocks.

this is also why, while "gen" 源 can refer to any general type of origin or source, it also specifically refers to a fountainhead: a source of water, or the origin of a river or stream.

and like yeah okay i know that it's a 99.9% chance that the creators didn't even think about any of this. but STILL. the brainworms have fully taken over and i am going CRAZY.

#mizu x taigen #taigen x mizu #taimizu #blue eye samurai #like this is greatly the reason why i prefer taimizu over taizu as their ship name #bcs taizu is like. huh. what's the kanji for “zu”? it doesnt matter it's irrelevant here bcs “mizu” itself has its own kanji and meaning #the only way to spell out taizu then is to use the hiragana or katakana but in that case it wouldnt mean anything #BUT THIS???? GUYS..... IT LITERALLY MEANS “PEACEFUL WATER”.... “PEACEFUL MIZU”. LIKE CMONNNNN #taimizu in my mind = 💚💙=🌳🌊 #yeah i'm scheduling this post it's been in my drafts for way too long it's time to let it roam free #fandom.rtf

see you soon, laika

#danny phantom #vlad plasmius #vlad masters #danny phantom fanart #I was gonna put a whole disclaimer in the post abt how this piece has nothing to do with the russian vlad hc #and how I would prefer if people didn't interpret it as such #but it would ruin the aesthetic so for those who read the tags: #to me Vlad's mother was a Czech woman who ran from the soviets to america #I wrote Laika's name in cyrillic because it felt more meaningful to me with that context #I was also inspired by soviet post cards and propaganda posters for this reason #it does have meaning but doesn't necessarily mean the character depicted is russian #thank you #this isn't hate or anything I just don't want to be misinterpreted #love and peace always <3

a lot of people are using nex as a queer talking point without even mentioning they were choctaw and 2S. without even mentioning that this - harassment, assault, murder, disappearances, lies/indifference/denial about the circumstances of our death - is typical of the violence we face. not once have i seen non-native people address that we, as natives, face this same treatment within queer communities. that queer institutions use our land while declining to offer native-inclusive and -sensitive care. we suffer at the hands of white lgbt+ people just as much as we do at the hands of people outside the community.

nex is not your NB pariah. nex was a 2S, NB, choctaw child. thousands of native people go missing and are killed and no one cares. many are two-spirit. many are LGBTQIA+. many are "queer" in ways only defined and recognised by our closed cultures, that you may never hear of and may never understand.

if you are going to flock to nex, you are not going to take them from us post-mortem. they were choctaw. they were native. their tribal affiliation has already been falsely reported on. if you are talking about nex, you will talk about how unwelcoming and dangerous your communities are for us, too. you will talk about how natives face this violence constantly, everywhere. you will not remove nex from the context of them being choctaw, ever - or you won't say their name at all.

even when we die, you don't care about us. i am telling you to care about us if you want us to stop dying.

#howling #nex benedict #yeah no i'm tired of seeing edit: and they were 2s!!1!! #no. first and foremost they were a native child. can you people stop fucking stealing our children. #some other notes if you see my tags: allegedly nex preferred he/him. i will prioritise using he/him. sources seem credible. #secondarily: if you aren't Black do not say ''rest in power'' for non-Black people. i do not know choctaw mourning traditions and language #(i'm algonquain and aleut) and won't tell you what To say. but please do not use ''rest in power'' when inappropriate. #thirdly: if you don't know how to talk about us Don't Talk About Us. QUOTE us. share OUR words. #may your spirit walk freely nex. may you be at peace. may flowers grow in your footprints and birds fly on the wind of your breath. #may your ancestors open their arms to you and embrace you in love. we will never forget you. i'm sorry we failed you. #we will do better next time.

Random late night thought, but it's BORING to think of the strongest characters of different shows/anime and compares them by asking "who'll win if they fight" --

Booo! Next question!

" Who'll choose tea or coffee "

Good.

Yoriichi drinks his tea like a gentleman he is, Saiki is happy with his coffee jelly and Gojo is at the back chucking on Fanta while in despair of what's happening with his life.

#why fight if they can just have tea together #don't label characters strength by how much violence they can do #especially if the said character prefers peace and never to be the one who provokes #demon Slayer #kny #kimetsu no yaiba #anime #anime crossover #kusuo saiki #gojo satoru #jjk #the disastrous life of saiki k. #crossovers

people who get angry about ships being immoral or icky or whatever are very annoying to the people who enjoy whatever ship is currently under fire, yes, but more importantly they're annoying to me, someone who simply doesn't vibe with the ship but doesn't want to be associated with weirdo internet puritans

#me #giant banner shows up in every internet space i enter that says ''MY PREFERENCE FOR GEN FIC IS NOT AN INDICATION OF MORAL SUPERIORITY'' #no i'm not a pro or anti shipper #i'm an adult with a job who simply finds fictional platonic relationships more compelling than romantic ones #leave me to read and write my little stories in peace

can we please make a concerted effort to bring "agree to disagree" back into fandom spaces

#i prefer a peaceful alternative to fandoms that are quick to fight #and guarantee the fight is never worth the energy or the overall damage to the community's reputation

The guitar melody in Robin at 1:33 being almost identical to the one in peace……..

i like the idea that despite their obvious color palettes atsushi is more into dark stuff while akutagawa prefers lighter ones. atsushi drinks black coffee while akutagawa likes lattes. atsushi listens to metal while akutagawa likes classic music. atsushi is maybe a thriller fan while akutagawa has comfort shows. it's just something i think about

#like you know how they both have very different responses to their relatively similar traumas? #i think maybe atsushi still finds some sort of comfort in things that are a bit loud and chaotic #while akutagawa grew up with violence and still works in a very violent job would prefer some silent peace #shin soukoku #sskk #akutagawa ryuunosuke #nakajima atsushi #bsd #bungou stray dogs #headcanons

tired of early 20-somethings acting like harry potter was never good or had no value in its day like shut the fuck up half of you weren't even there when it peaked

#sit with the cognitive dissonance like the rest of us or shut up honestly #was it a product of its time yes #was it's author a very basic neoliberal white lady from a country with a long and unchecked imperialist history yes #was the story influenced by said neoliberal worldviews and unexamined biases obviously #does any of that make it a bad story or an unimaginative world no #you can pick apart any fantasy world if you try hard enough #harry potter was a good telling of the hero's journey written in the format of seven mystery novels set against a fantasy backdrop #we can certainly talk about its flaws or how the author's biases leaked onto the page #but stop acting like it was never good and there was never a reason those books resonated with people #it's condescending for one thing and again- if you're younger than like...24-25 you didn't actually experience the heyday of the books #if you're 25 now you'd have been like 8 or 9 when the last book came out and probably weren't reading them yet #you might remember the latter half of the movie era but you have no idea how much it was the BOOKS that drove its popularity #never before and never since has any book series had the fanfare that harry potter did and that didn't happen for no reason #so find a way to make peace with that instead of acting intellectually superior because you grew up with percy jackson instead #this 'well MY generation's preferred childhood book series is morally superior to YOURS so I'm better than you' shit drives me up a wall #like get over yourself honestly #...sorry had to get that off my chest there was this youtube video and it was irritating me

[somewhereincairparavel]

I'm actually appalled at how gatekeeping, aggravating and Percy obsessive the pjo fandom is when you say you like Jason as a character or say ANYTHING good about him at all. I've had such horrible experiences, like why the dirty look ffs? I'm not a "true" pjo fan if I like Jason?? Bffr it sounds like something an 8 year old would say

Like I came across a YouTube comment appreciating Jason and Nico's closeness as friends and the replies HAD to be "oh L take. Imagine liking jason. Percy was much more brotherly and affectionate with Nico than Jason was" like ??? This is isn't about Percy?? Not everything revolves around him?? People can like and appreciate others too? How come I NEVER see these comments in a Leo or Nico post?

Or those stupid Instagram reels where ppl go "The people who like Jason isn't one of us" like this ain't a cult ma'am you aren't special for for making Jason lovers feel unwelcome. It seems to be some kind of trend.

Liking Jason isn't a fucking disease and people aren't obligated to have Percy as a favourite. Get over it, the world isn't going to end. I swear I didn't want to come off so aggressive here but this is seriously a very toxic and offputting trait the fandom has that NEEDS to fade over time.

#Fandom when you love a noble hero who is a sweetheart: L 😤😤 jason deserved to die bc he committed the unforgivable of standing next to Percy #Like womp womp. I ain't gonna fall at your feet apologizing bc I like Jason. He's fictional for fucks sake. #I actually thought the fandom would be more peaceful when it comes to character preferences but I was wrong #Tumblr pjo fandom is such a W tho #Liking Jason is ≠ hating Percy #pjo #pjo fandom #percy jackson #jason grace #pjo hoo #pjo series #pjo hoo toa #annabeth chase #piper mclean #leo valdez #frank zhang #hazel levesque
