The fact I refuse to confront/inform the people who have basically ruined my mental state and my ability to function bc that would make them feel bad is honestly bonkers
#miranda talking shit#I cant say id be having a good and normal life if i wasnt abused as a young child but im 90% sure I'd not have this must trouble#Id still have my autistic and add problems but my anxiety and depression would definitely be a lot better#Its... Insane. That my older brothers probably have no idea how much they have actually ruined my life/mental state from such an earlh age#As 4 yrs old... Hell they might not even remember it or even think it was a 'big deal'. I know my second oldest brother probably falls into#The latter. I know now that they both most likely have undiagnosed adhd/autism and they used me as a way to act out/feel better#But being told youre stupid. Fat. Ugly. Useless from the age of 4 like... I cant stress how much it have ruined my self image#Ive tried to build confidence in myself and love myself since my teens and i can barely say im 'avarge' without doubting it#Like they also hit me but that's nothing compared to the mental torture i had to go through on an almost daily basis#Funniest thing is that bc it happened/started when i was so young i didnt think it was... Bad or weird or abnormal.#I started crying when my parents told me to go tell my brothers it was dinner time. I was terrified of knocking on their doors#I still to this day 20 years later am still incredibly uncomfortable and anxious talking with them and i havent been able to make much of#An relationship with them bc of it. Im scared to say anything to them even if its simple shit. And men/boys in general ive thus been#Terrified of since i was young. Once again i thought it was normal to mistrust and be scared of men until i was in my teens#I wish i could hate them i wish i could be angry i wish i had someone to blame#But no my brain is too nice and give excuses to them. Their actions are excused. They have ruined me mentally but thats not their fault#Fuck that might be true but they were still 6 and 11 years older than me. I didnt have a chance to protect myself in any way#I wish someone saw i wasnt okay. I wish someone understood that i wasnt well. I wish someone saw me.#Negative#Abuse

proshippers r funny to me because of the degree to which yall just lie. "we always tag our content correctly" no the fuck you dont ive been in the world you cannot trick me, trying to filter out all the ""shotacon"" when i still used ao3 was a nightmare because even when it wasnt split between 2293809 different euphemisms which changed frequently as everyone else started realizing "old man/younger man" was being used for like a 6 year old kid instead of age gaps between adults which outside of your roleplay most people do have a different stance on than pedophilia, and people constantly just posting 5 yr old/20 yr old porn ageddown porn of canon adults with zero relevant tags. this has been my experience in all of fandom, telling a proshipper that they need to avoid posting untagged graphic rape porn in tags for shounen is apparently as painful as having your leg sawed off from how people react to it. you have posts insisting that it is at all reasonable for an ao3 user who doesnt want to see pedophilia should simply filter out every possible shotacon ship which is what i did so i can tell you thats incredibly unreasonable because that number is generally in the thousands, doesn't count as "tagging correctly", and also DOESN'T WORK because again people will just not tag shit or do agedown porn without tagging it so you can be in the tag of a ship for characters who are 50 and 60 in canon when lo and behold AU porn where the older one is babysitting the younger one and theyre 20 and 10, no tags except "Au - babysitter". like tbc i do think that even if you have the minimum balls to tag your adult raping a kid porn "pedophilia" you should still be criticized for that which i know the main conceit of the anti anti movement is pretending is worse than murder, but its wild how often people let yall just lie that tagging correctly is the universal or even a common standard. thats not even getting into the fact that ao3 doesn't let you select tags to automatically filter so you have to type in every individual tag you want out every single time you do a search. but no everyone should have to spend 4 hours theorizing every possible way you could weasel words your way around describing an adult having sexual intercourse with a child and then individually type em all in just so they can see read old men fucking without one of them being turned into a middle schooler. like with every other anit anti talking point it runs into the ultimate problem that yall are lazy assholes who are in this community in the first place because youre so allergic to compassion you can only tolerate people esp children if youre jacking off to them and so any measure yall claim you take for the good of others is ultimately a lie. also i still havent forgotten all those times you defended irl pedophilia or that one time you said you had a kneejerk reaction to discredit someone talking about a case study of irl csa by defending the pedophile and blamed "antis" instead of the fact that you spend all day every day defending being attracting to children. which is much worse, obviously

I really like your analysis on ES and the way the children are dealing with the adults’ problems. Quick question though, do you think that kids’ cartoons CAN deal with mature topics on a healthy way, like Batman the Animated Series did (esp since Batman is an adult helping people and not a child)?
VVVVVV
Sure! It helps a lot that BtAS is also written for an older audience of kids (early-late teens)
I think that it’s important to understand that ‘children’s cartoons’ are not a monolith. The level of social development in an 8 year old is not the same as a 14 year old; the older child is going to be able to handle more nuanced and complicated depictions of emotion in their characters (and in fact will start seeking it out as they age) while the younger child is just not going to be able to grasp it yet.
And while it might feel like ‘adult problems’, you’ll notice pretty quickly that shows like Teen Titans or BtAS depict a very stylised form of character drama, abstracted enough alongside the plot to be more digestible for younger teens. Darker themes get a kind of pop-art abstraction, where perhaps certain elements of that darkness are obscured in order to highlight what a young teenager would be able to relate with without forcing them to relate to it in an adult way (hating your dad because he sucks ≠ we need to depict explicit abuse/ I’m angry and sad bc I lost someone and lashing out ≠ we need to depict substance abuse used to cope)
And you hit the nail on the head when you said Batman is an adult! There’s a whole discussion out there on maturity levels and the age you need to be to be empathising with characters who aren’t also children, but it’s safe to say that a show like Justice League or BtAS provide a natural kind of interest check at the door, where it’s more adult tone and older characters will ward off a lot of younger (5-7 yr old) kids who aren’t explicitly seeking out a more mature tone.
My issue with ES is that it feels very confused in this regard, and blurs the lines between what’s tonally appropriate in a way that’s probably quite upsetting for young 6-10 year old children (which it’s trying to appeal to) but doesn’t commit to the other end of the spectrum and artfully depict an abstracted form of adulthood that both kids and adults can enjoy.
And, like, I do also enjoy a lot of media that is marketed towards kids! I love animation, and I’m aware that there are a lot of good kids media out there that are Kind Of Fucked Up Actually, but you’ll find that those shows aren’t trying to appeal to the same age demographic as, say, Bluey. And also very rarely ever actually kill/hurt children, or put very young children in traumatising situations that elicit an on-screen mental breakdown.

"Touya should have known that killing Shouto..."
How old was Touya there? Maybe 6, 7 years old? Let's say he was 8 year old, for the sake of it.
I'm gonna repeat this slowly and gently. Because I swear to God I'm scared of how you all talk about little kids as if they were obligated to be in full understanding of his surroundings and identities.
If you tell me a 8 yrs old jumped out the window because they felt lonely, my instinct is never going to be "he misunderstood his parents, poor them, they couldn't express to the kid how much they loved him, he didn't try to..." IT IS A CHILD.
You brought the baby to this world, the baby has no idea how this world works and have no sense of control because you should be teaching them. Along as they are minors, especially if they're younger than 12 or maybe 13 years old, they are your responsibility. Fully.
Those are not workers you can fire. Those are not barbie dolls you get to dress up but they must behave perfectly or you are gonna send them away. They are humans and you are in charge of raising them, of their safety and education.
If Enji was too busy with his job to raise a kid let alone four, if something was mentally and physically wrong with Touya AND THE DOCTOR TOLD ENJI IT COULD HAPPEN but Enji was not even there for it, if he knew the source of Touya's distress was his fault for trying to crossbreed Rei like she was some cow to get the prized animal of the festival, that is on him.
If a kid kills another kid with his father gun, I'm not thinking "omg that child", I'm thinking "what the fuck is the father that he 1) show the gun to the kid, 2) taught the kid how to shoot, 3) left the gun unsupervised and the kid unsupervised and 4) decided it was on the kid if he took the gun and decided to kill his brother".
With 8 years old.
Bnha is fiction and we're talking about s topic that has more to do with the intention of a good storytelling than the rant on this post, but once again I swear you all talk with the confidence of a a system willing to see a child in jail.
At least treat Touya as a fictional character and be done with it, but don't ever again try to argue a kids point of view with me.

i like to think jouno, tecchou and tachihara all first met teruko in her 10 yr old girl form and started off under the assumption that she's just Genuinely 10 (would not be the weirdest thing bsd's japanese government has allowed) and so the 1st time she uses her ability, it's a huuuge shock
jouno was the first to experience this. he and teruko were arguing and he properly pissed her off so she grew to 6 feet tall and jouno didn't even realise what was happening until she punched him square in the face and he was like THAT IS NOT A CHILD'S FIST. he was so humiliated and upset over the whole ordeal that he was like EVERYONE who joins after me has to also go through this. so they didn't tell tecchou or tachihara about her ability prior to her using it in front of them
tachihara was a little spooked (like wow another reason to be FUCKING TERRIFIED of the vice commander) but tecchou had 0 reaction to it. maybe didn't even notice she changed ages. said something like "vice commander did you cut your hair?". cut to jouno screaming and slamming his head against the wall in frustration

Welcome Lovely’s <3
Disclaimer: I just want to say that I fully support recovery, and I am in no way trying to encourage ed’s. My account is about MY personal body issues and mental health issues. If that is triggering to you, then I strongly suggest you block me and move on, therefore protecting your peace. (do what is right for you💕)
(I unpinned this post so like just ignore it thx )
To everyone else , WELCOME!!!
Hi my name is Angel. I am 18 yrs old, and I have struggled with my weight for as long as I can remember.
I was always a fat child, at no point my life was I ever not overweight, and of course the problem worsened as I got older. I was constantly put on diets as a kid , and my mom tried to limit the amount of sweets I had, but it never really worked and I just kept getting bigger and bigger.
In 2020 I reached my , then highest , weight of 280lbs / 127 kg , I was completely disgusted with my weight , and decided to start my weight loss journey for the first time ever, my plan worked out well since we were stuck in quarantine anyway. I restricted myself a lot , and stuck to a very low calorie diet. I also ran/ walked on the treadmill everyday until I reach 2-3 miles. Then I would dance for 30-45 minute a day. Doing this I was able to go from 280lbs ( started half way through freshman year) down to 215 lbs (the end of sophomore year ) .
But then for my Junior year , we returned back to in person school. At first I was intermittent fasting, and taking my own low-cal lunches, yet was stuck in a plateau. I never got lower than 215lbs. I was also hanging out with friends afterschool, as well as joined school clubs, this didn’t help at all with the fact that I was trying to lose weight. Hanging out with friends always involved going out to eat somewhere ( Jack in the Box, Mc Donald’s , Starbucks, Wingstop, Boba, etc) and The teacher would always serve pizza to the students in the club. So no matter where I went, there was always junk food. So eventually I just gave up . Then over the course of 2 years ( junior & senior year and a few months after graduating ) I ended up gaining weight 220..230…240…the scale only kept going up …250..260..270…280…..and atlast I reached 290 where I’m at now.
I am once again completely disgusted and disappointed with myself. I worked so hard, yet I let myself go , and now I’m back at square 1.
I turn 19 in a few days, and I am gonna fat as fuck for yet another birthday. But I refuse to be huge for my 20th and even less my 21st birthday. There is no moment better than now to get back on track.
I am attempting to lose the bulk of my weight in one year ( from April 23,2024- April , 29,2025) my goal is to lose at least 100lbs , but I’m aiming for 120lbs.
I know it’s a lot but I’m going to try my hardest to get there. If you guys have any tips , or workout suggestions, or diets that I should try. Please do let me know, i appreciate all the help I can get.
I’m going to use this thread to keep track of every 10lbs I lose. I have multiple gw’s , but only one ugw. So bear with me.
SW: 290 lbs (April 23,2024)
GW 1 : 280
GW 2: 270
GW 3:260
GW 4: 250
GW 5: 240
GW 6: 230
GW 7: 220
GW 8: 210
GW 9 : 200
GW 10: 190
GW 11: 180
GW 12: 170
UGW: 160

one of my friends didn't know what ygo sevens was so they asked me to horribly explain the main (or more common) characters to them
SO IMA TYPE IT UP HERE (it's kinda long also I do swear a lot so you've been warned)
Ygo Se7ens (horribly summarized)
First we have our protag, lil 11-yr old hacker midget that's also an engineer. 11-yr old midget has many friends, such as boy who loves dragons and talks to cards also really wants to be king someday. We also have student council president guy who's also a Japanese ninja samurai guy who's also a rapper. Or a dj, whatever way you see it i guess. Then there's guitar lady who's most likely a lesbian and makes blue and pink curry that explodes. Then the cousin of guitar lesbian is gay homophobic celebrity boy. As in holy fuck make up your mind ya little shit. Gay homophobic celebrity boy is the vocalist in the rock band that's literally just his and his cousin's names squashed together. Other members in the band are gay guy that needs to find a better boyfriend and guy who's name is legit "look behind you." Not joking. Gay guy that needs to get a better boyfriend has a crush on gay homophobic celebrity boy. Toxic yaoi mmmmmmmmm scrumptious. Then our favorite identity crisis boy, "look behind you," is literally the best i mean just look at him (the original thing was on paper and there was a drawing) he's probably nonbinary and maybe knows Latin and Japanese, you can fight me on this. Likes urban legends. Then we have the children presidents. Oldest one, speedy boi, drives a car. Very colors of aro. Second oldest, ocean boi talks to dolphins+other sea creatures and can play the ukulele. Lovely first middle child, female autistic baseball gigachad. Likes fire. Second middle child, kendo guy (big stick) beat the shit out of 25+ people with said big stick. Youngest (i think) child is queer (very queer) catboy who likes puppets and can make them too. Called our favorite 11-yr old hacker midget cute. Those bitches are gay. Good for them. EHEM. then there's chameleon boy! He's shy, and was befriended by dragon boy! Chameleon boy is so nic- wait a minute he's actually the last child president???? Turns out, chameleon boy is actually chameleon boy that got his memories sealed away until they came back and he started wiping everyone's memories. Then there's a nice little girl- wait no she's actually 37. Wears a sign that says "I am an adult," to bars and gets called a little girl all the time. Then there's providence programmer guy he has glasses, a god complex and his best friend is a sentient robotic massage chair. How lovely. Then we have lesbian lady, she gets called princess and she has a forklift (I'm sorry don't kill me Asana) named R6. R6 can talk. Okay well only lesbian lady understands R6 but that's besides the point. R6 is one of the best in the show because he roasted gay homophobic celebrity boy and simultaneously traumatized him but he deserves it. Then there's angry lady. Everything about her is strong, even her eyebrows. Especially her eyebrows. Lesbian lady and angry lady are lesbians for each other. Then there's bitch guy. Bitch guy is 6" 9 I'm not even joking I wish I was. Bitch guy gave gay homophobic celebrity boy ✨trust issues✨ when he was a child by not giving him a playing card. That led to gay homophobic celebrity boy blackmailing his cousin, lesbian guitar lady, so she could spy on 11-yr old hacker midget, dragon boy who talks to cards, and student council president/dj/ninja. 11-yr old hacker midget was actually the one that got the playing card.
And that's where where I stopped writing
I'll update this later when I have more of Ygo Se7ens (Horribly Summarized)

,,,, Brazilian Yuu is fucking amazing.
So, here in the region of Brazil that I'm from, children's birthday parties are smth else genuinely.
Specific food (like brigadeiro and things of the sort), galpões de festa (literally translated to party shed 💀) and stuff of the sort. If yk yk
But the best part is a classic party game called canibal. Basically, an adult dressed in black chases you around a vast, dark place at night (usually some park. with a lot more obstacles tho. Brazil is wack) while you try to perform tasks. Usually, you have to collect colors n stuff, but sometimes it's just running for your life. Last person standing wins. The games with younger kids usually have a chant that "scares away" the person chasing you, but beyond the age of 6 it's run or get caught.
Oh yeah did I mention little kids play this? Yeah.
Now I'm just imagining Brazilian Yuu being just so unfaded by everything in twst bc of this. Maybe even getting the boys to play with them too. Watch them wet their pants jumpscare after jumpscare. Br!Yuu cackling, running away with ease from whomever is chasing them. This is child's play for them, literally.
Bit of a longass ask there lmao sry :[ I hope u have a good day!
Question my Brazilian friend
Do you guys also so the thing where some kid would have a first communion or a babies 1st birthday party where there's an entire marachi and 2 tons of beer cases?? Getting absolutely smashes in celebration of a one yr Olds party??
Also that sounds so cool :0

- In DBZ, Goten and Trunks were obviously friends, but Trunks obviously had an attitude. He definitely thought that Goten was lame. Trunks, despite acknowledging himself as a child outloud like two times, definitely thought that Goten was immature and babyish. They got along okay, but Trunks definitely grimaced at the prospect of having to merge with him.
- At the end of Z, it was set up like Goten and Trunks hadn’t seen each other in a while.
- It’s perfectly plausible that they grew apart as they aged.
- But then in DBS, theyre seen hanging out almost EXCLUSIVELY with each other and it’s CONSTANT. And they continue to hang out through DBS:SH era, which is like, what, a year before EOZ?
- We can reconcile these two portrayals by giving them a window in which they did fall apart, and just moving that window a little back in time. That is to say, perhaps between Z and Super they didn't see each other much.
- That’s like, a 6 year gap or something, right? 
- OK. Here’s what I believe. I believe that they did not see each other much in that time. And I think that Trunks moved on pretty effectively from that friendship. He grew up some and he felt he and Goten grow apart naturally. He finds himself thinking that Goten’s pretty lame, and he’s okay with doing his own thing. 
- BUT THEN. They reconnect during DBS. And Goten has unexpectedly gotten cooler. Like, Trunks is expecting him to be all babyish like before, and he’s prepared to have to be the older/more mature one, and he’s got his swaggy yellow sweatshirt on, and he feels pretty fucking grown for being able to come face-to-face with an old friend and with no hard feelings. But then Goten is, like, straight-up cool (for 13/14 yr old terms). Like, he rolls up all exuberant like usual but is capable of rolling out some FUNNY SHIT. Like he’s energetic and joyful and comical and playful, in a way that’s wonted for the new times. Right off the bat he gets Trunks to fall for a prank. He’s like “hey Trunks, Gohan told me that if your hand is bigger than your face, you have cancer! Isn’t that scary?” and Trunks is like “huh he really said that?” and then he puts his hand up to his face and WHAM ! 
- Trunks has to admit it. Goten has gotten Pretty Fucking Cool. He can keep up. Before they were rolling in dumpsters together and they were often on the same page but it was still too easy for Goten to dissolve into sensitive immaturity. And Trunks was always sighing and shit. Like Oh Brother. Can’t Take This Guy Anywhere. (<- exact quote from the sub). But now Goten rolls up and he and Trunks are ON the same page he can keep UP he’s got FUNNY SHIT to say himself and his sense of humor has not suffered in their time apart. And Trunks is like, damn. Is it just me or has Goten gotten cooler? No, he’s definitely being cool right now. He’s definitely cool right now
- And he’s not gonna say that because it’s not gonna come up becasue at any given point, “funny” or “silly” are more apt adjectives. When you’re rolling on the floor in laughter, you’re not gonna pop up and be like “youre being so cool right now.” When he has a good idea, you tell him he’s being smart. “Cool” just never comes up. But I’m telling you. When they reconnect, Trunks decides then and there to keep him around because he perceives that hes gotten COOLER. 
- Trunks fancies himself to be mature and tasteful, and he always has, and he has grown a bit in 6 years, but not enough that he can look back and disparage his past self. he thinks that he’s always been this cool and mature and smart and clever. But he can definitely see the change in Goten because there’s just an ounce more of WIT about him.
- Goten’s opinion of Trunks has not changed. Goten did not consider their time apart to mean anything at all. Whereas Trunks took it as the natural movement of growth (as we’ve seen he is precocious and exercises metacognition to a degree that is surely autistic), Goten just simply considered it an arbitrary pause because they were busy or something. So he shows back up and to him they just pick up right where they left off. He’s not thinking about how he or Trunks has changed.
- If Trunks told him “Hey you’ve gotten cooler,” Goten would cover his brief moment of incomprehension with “You’ve gotten uglier.” And to Trunks this is just proof that hes gotten cooler. And of course more of an adversary. He’s offended and they fight about it

time for some controversy all fandom specific questions are related to succession 1, 4, 6, 13
the character everyone gets wrong
I could say Shiv but I'm simply going to throw a curveball and say that it's Kendall. People bitch and moan about the whole babygirlification of Tom yet seem to allow it to happen to Kendall on the basis that his emotional vulnerability makes him girly teengirl coded bc they too, have fallen into the stereotype of masculinity fed to us by television. In reality Kendall is every single straight man who has a mid life crisis and proceeds to cope with it by being an inescapable fuckup. He wants to believe that he's just as smart, shrewd and business savvy as his father and yet every single time it blows up in his face because he lacks the ability to introspect and admit he too, like anybody else has weaknesses. He uses this facade of emotional vulnerability to justify his consistent neglect of his wife and child and drug use and ultimately refuses to change despite the clear problems it creates.
Feminizing him completely misses the point of his character and if you'll allow me to sound psychotic here wraps back around to misogyny. Because what are you pushing if not the idea that women are emotional and men are purely logical, thus a man crying or telling you he's sad makes him into a woman. Let's think.
4. what was the last straw that made you finally block that annoying person?
Every single person that keeps trying to find hidden meaning in random shots of this show gets hardblocked because this isn't the fucking type of show for that shit and I can tell you all got your media analysis ability from the exact same 5 tumblr blogs that were running around fandoms and have never expanded beyond that. There is more ways to tell a story than subliminal meaning and while the show has some of that it's not the entire foundation of the script.
Also this looking for hidden meanings is always a weird way to absolve the roy children of blame because of course I can't have a favorite character that does anything wrong or else that makes me a bad person.
6. which ship fans are the most annoying?
tomgregs tbh even though I like it myself but I also like it while simultaneously thinking Greg fucking sucks and is annoying so I'm a bit off the beaten path here.
13. worst blorboficiation
See: My thoughts on Kendall in #1. I really do have such a bone to pick with his stans. I guess my other opinion would be Greg but it's not blorbofication so much as the illusion of an everyman to root for despite the show making it clear Greg is far more incompetent than every single one of the roy children and even Tom and is only here as a glorified nepotism hire. His idiocy at times is more dangerous than anything Roman could do and his attempts to "outsmart" others are exactly the type of thing your average 16 yr old high schooler who uses reddit would post when a thread comes up about how YOU would fare in the world of Succession.

girl dad!hobie headcanons because it’s the only thing on my mind ༉‧₊˚✧ .
Tumblr media
girl dad!hobie who will wake up in the morning and admire both you and your daughter sleeping peacefully. and if you three sleep in the same bed, he’s squeezing you both into his arms and pressing kisses to your cheeks because he loves his girls so fucking much.
girl dad!hobie who is absolutely obsessed with his daughter’s cheeks. pinching, biting and poking them is his fav activity. especially when she presses her small face to his cheek, he might as well fucking melt.
girl dad!hobie who has his daughter always, and i mean always, in his arms. walks around the house holding her on one of his arms or puts her in a baby carrier while he helps you with chores. and don’t even think of removing her from her daddy because she starts kicking her little feet and fists and will not calm down until she’s back into her dad’s embrace.
girl dad!hobie who shows her off to everybody. she’s his proudest accomplishment “ain’t she cute? such a daddy’s girl… but pretty like her momma” and the moment someone points out how she’ll have people pilling after her when she gets older, he scrunches his nose in defense. “nah, willow ain’t allowed to get married ‘till she’s 30” and you roll your eyes “hobie..” “no, won’t hear it. can’t have no bloke break my babygirl’s heart”
girl dad!hobie who will, often at his daughter request, match with her. matching clothes, accessories and hair. her dad is her biggest role model and she often asks you to tie her curly hair into little buns, as to resemble his wicks (since she’s too young for them). and she’ll go around the house with her little toy guitar, imitating her father’s accent. hobie could might as well cry, she’s so cute.
girl dad!hobie who has invaded your gallery. you have thousands upon thousands of pics and videos of him and your daughter being two peas in a pot. she’s an identical copy of him. and the way she laughs once he rolls onto the floor with her and starts playing with her, tickling her as she kicks her feet and yells for him to stop. and the way he looks at her.. the way he looks back at you from behind the camera.. there’s not enough love in this world to explain the way he feels about his girls.
girl dad!hobie who frequently had full on conversations with his daughter before she learned how to speak. imagine waking up to hearing hobie talk, thinking your friends came over but he’s talking to his daughter as he feeds her “no way! how dare she? and you said that? good for ya’, girl. take shit from no one” and you can’t help but laugh at his goofiness. “um.. d’ya mind, mama? we talkin’ “
girl dad!hobie who will insist on his daughter spending some time with you two, so that “mommy doesn’t feel left out”. and she’ll always come to you, little hands caressing your face as she pouts and says “sorry for playing so much with daddy, i love you” and you always reassure her she has no reason to apologise. you knew your daughter loved you just as much. but hobie and her, they had a different bond. and you absolutely loved being a witness of it. made your heart melt everytime.
girl dad!hobie who is so hell bent on teaching his daughter what love is like. so he never fails to keep giving you attention, especially in front of her, since he wants her to know what she needs to look for in a romantic partner. because she “deserves nothing less than being treated like a princess”.
girl dad!hobie who is so attached to his daughter that he gets emotional often. she said her first word? he’s crying. she started to walk? he’s weeping. she smiled at him? he’s absolutely drowning in tears. it’s cute, really. their bond truly is unique.
girl dad!hobie who, once your daughter becomes a child (6-10 yrs old) will pick her up, throw her in the air, spin her around like she’s nothing but a feather. he’s grabbing her by the ankles and holding her upside down to mess with her while she yells at you between laughs to “tell daddy to put me down!” “you stole daddy’s food, thas’ what you get, rascal!”
girl dad!hobie who will always be the first to rush to his daughter’s room when he hears something’s wrong. who’ll let her cry on his shoulder. who’ll tell her that it’s fine if she doesn’t want to talk but will always listen. who always gives the best advice and always ends it with “no matter you decide, me and your mum will always love you. no matter what”
girl dad!hobie who will, however, take no insult towards you from his daughter. if he catches the two of you fight he will immediately intervene, talk through it with the both of you and tell his daughter that whatever she does, whatever problem she has she is never to speak to her mum that way. he absolutely hates seeing his favorite people fight.
girl dad!hobie who has movie nights with you two even if he knows you’ll both fall asleep before him. but you’ll both end up asleep on his chest, you to his right and your daughter to his left as she snores soundly. and he won’t have it anyway else.
girl dad!hobie who will 90% of the times will be sprawled on the couch with his daughter in his arms as they both sleep soundly, passed out from too much playtime. and the floor is filled with coloring books, sweets, chips, crayons and toys, the stereo playing some low-volume punk from his playlist. and what can you do other than peck both of their forehead and tidy up silently?
girl dad!hobie who will always be his daughter’s model. she wants him to wear this shirt? sure. and those pants? absolutely. and wear a pink ballerina tutu of her’s on top of all that? bring it on. and he’ll ask for matching makeup too. and accessories. outfit has to be complete. and he’ll strut into the living room, making you crack up with laughter as he juts his lip and asks “well.. whachu think? designer, willow brown. she’s pretty skilled if ya’ ask me” as your daughter smiles up at him and clings to his leg. “oh yes, so talented” you smiled as you kiss her forehead. “feelin’ like lovin’ on a model like me today?” he asks before bringing you in for a kiss while your daughter runs away, covering her eyes “EWWW DAAAAD”
and girl dad!hobie who will come up to you, hands sneaking to your waist that you’ve been so self conscious about since giving birth. and he’ll kiss your neck softly, gently etching praises into your skin as he wipes away every worry about the way you look. “if anythin’, you look better than before” “you know thats a lie” you turn to him as he smiles down at you “you think ‘m not gonna push you on this bed and keep you up all night? you’re crazy” and it makes you laugh because you know well enough he means it. “stop talkin’ about my girl like that, you’re perfect”
girl dad!hobie will always have his daughter as his priority. no matter what. he will always make time for family time, no doubt about it <3

The Menu
Tyler: I want to live inside this thing.
Margot: What is it with this food thing?
Tyler: I don't know it's like you know how people idolize, you know athletes, musicians, & painters & stuff? Those people are idiots. What they do, it doesn't matter. They play with inflatable balls & ukuleles & shit.
Chef, they play with the raw materials of life itself. And death itself. It's I mean I've watched every fucking episodes of Chef Table's 2 or 3 times.
I've watched Slowik's 20 times. I've watched him explain the exact moment a green strawberry is perfectly unripe. I've watched him plate a raw scallop during its last dying contraction of muscle. It's an art on the edge of the abbys, which is where God works too. It's the same.
Margot: That was beautifully put, Tyler. I think I'm starting to get it.
------
Chef Slowik: G'evening. Welcome to Hawthorne, I am Julian Slowik & tonight it'll be our pleasure to feed you. Over the next few hours you will ingest fat, salt, sugar, protein, bacteria, fungi, various plants and animals, and at times, entire ecosystems. But I have to beg of you one thing. It's just one. Don't eat. Taste. Savor. Relish. Consider every morsel goes inside your mouth. Be mindful. But do not eat. Our menu is too precious for that. Look around you. Here we are on this island. Accept. Accept all of it. And forgive. And on that note, Food! ----- 1st course: The Island
Our first course is called "The island". On your plate are plants from around the island, placed on rocks from the shore, covered in barely frozen filtered seawater which flavored the dish as it melts. Now, here's what you must remember about this dish. We, the people on this island, are not important. The island and the nutrients it provides exist in their most perfect state without us gathering them / manipulating them, or digesting them. What happens inside this room is meaningless compare to what happens outside in nature, in the soil, in the water, in the air. We are but a frightened nanosecond. Nature is timeless. Enjoy. ------ Bread has existed in some form for over 12,000 years, especially amongst the poors. Flour and water. What could be simpler? Even today, grain represents 65% of all agriculture. Fruits and vegetables only 6%. Ancient Greek peasant dipped their stale, measly bread in wine for breakfast. And how did Jesus teach us to pray if not to beg for our daily bread? It is, and has always been, the food of the common man. But you, my dear guests, are not the common man. So tonight, you got no bread. Course no 2: Breadless Bread Plate No bread, Savory Accompaniments. In this spirit, please enjoy the unaccompanied accompaniments. Note: "The bread you will not be eating tonight was made from a heritage wheat called red fife, crafted with our partners at the Tehachapi Grain Project devoted to preserving heirloom grains." --- Course no 3: A memory. The next course will be called a Memory. And that is what it's mean to evoke. A memory. So let me tell you a memory of mine. When I was growing up, a child in Waterloo, Iowa, Tuesday was Taco Night. Taco Tuesday! The lady's here is my mother. As you can see, she's rather drunk. This is not an unusual. When I was 7 yrs old, one Tue my father came home quite drunk. Really drunk. Also not unusual. My mother grew angry and screamed at him, at which point, he proceeded to wrap a telephone cord around her neck and pull it tight. I wept. I screamed, begged him to stop. To make him stop, I had finally had to stab him in the thigh with kitchen scissors. You remember that mother, don't you? Now, I suppose I should've him in the throat that evening. But we're not so smart when we're young. It was you can imagine, as a very memorable taco night. So here you have house smoked Bresse chicken thigh al pastor and our own tortillas made with heirloom masa, one of the Hawthorne's signature dishes. We changed our menu constantly, but as Ms. Bloom knows, this has been a staple since day one. It's what you once said put me on the map. Precisely what map would that be I wonder. Anyway, because we're always innovating, and we fear irrelevance, an update to a classic. The images on the tortillas has been made using a laser-engraving machine. It's the first time we've used it. We hope this taco night evokes strong memories for us all. Enjoy. -- Course no 4 I'm Excited. We're ready for our next course which I think you'll find... Ladies & Gentlemen, please meet sous-chef Jeremy Louden. Jeremy created the next dish. It's called "The Mess." Originally from Sparks, Nevada, Jeremy studied at the Culinary Institute in Hyde Park. Jeremy's goal, as he wrote in a heartfelt letter, was to work for me at Hawthorne. Jeremy is talented. He's good. He's very good. But he's not great. He'll never be great. He desperately wants my prestige, my job, my talent. He aspires to greatness, but he'll never achieve it. Like me at his age, Jeremy has forsaken everything to achieve his goals. Like mine, his life is pressure. Pressure to put out the best food in the world. And even when all goes right, and the food is perfect, and the customers are happy, and the critics are, too, there's no way to avoid the mess.
Chef Slowik : Jeremy do you like this life? This life that you dreamed about? 
Jeremy: No, Chef. 
Chef Slowik : And do you want my life? 
Not my position, nor my talent. My life. 
Jeremy: No, Chef. 
(Chef Slowik kisses Jeremy on the cheek left and right)
Ladies and Gentlemen, your fourth course, sous-chef Jeremy's The Mess. Jeremy: shot himself on the throat with a gun.
The Mess: pressure cook vegetables, roasted fillet, potato confit, beef jus, bone marrow. And here we have a biodynamic Cabernet Franc from our friend at Domaine Breton. It has no added sulfites, a bit of barnyard funk, and just wonderful match with wonderful proteins. Enjoy.
—— Course no 5 Palate Cleanser: Wild Bergamot & Red Clover Tea There’s a saying. Sometimes all you need is a good cup of tea. I learned that growing up in Bratislava. I’ve found that not only does tea cleanse the palate, but it offers a soothing balm when facing some hard home truths. But before we continue, are there any Q about me or Hawthorne? Think of yourself as ingredients in degustation concept. A tasting concept. Figuratively speaking. I think that is the best way to describe it. But none of this should be a surprise to most of you. Ms Bloom, Lilian, if I may, my cherished early advocate knows the damage she has done to so many livelihoods. You enable the fifth. You buttress. You coddle. More broken Emulsion, Madam. You loved that I texted you an invitation for this evening. Me yearning for your attendance. Your ego was fed. But that is to be expected. And no, you fed my ego as well. My loyal regulars. How many times have you eaten here in the last 5 years? 11 times. Most people consider themselves blessed if they eat here only once. Mr. Leibrandt, kindly name one dish you ate the last time you were here or the time before. 11 times you take the boat out here — 6th course Our next course will be presented by our sous chef Katherine Keller. Good evening, everyone. 3 years ago, Julian Slowik tried to fucked me. I refuses his advances. A week later, he tried again. And again, I refused. But he didn’t fire me. No. He kept me in his kitchen and refused to look at me in the eye or speak directly to me for 8 months. He can do that. Because he’s the star. He’s the man. Our next course is called “Man’s Folly.” She stabbed Chef Slowik in his tights with scissors. To our male diners, we now offer you the chance to escape. You’ll be given a 45- sec head start, at which point members of my staff will try and catch you. If they do catch, 45 sec starts now. Man’s Folly: Dungeness crab, fermented yoghurt whey, dried sea lettuce, umeboshi, kelp. Passard Egg: egg, creme fraiche, and maple.
7th course Tyler’s Bullshit: undercooked lamb, inedible shallot-leek butter sauce, utter lack of cohesion.
Supplement Course: A cheeseburger Just a well-made cheeseburger
Last course:
S’more: marshmallow, chocolate, graham cracker, customers, staff, restaurant.

talking about my hysto/oopho surgery!
so i had my surgery and the surgeon came in after was like "dude, your ovary was SO WEIRD." (i don't mind that she talks like that, i actually love it)
so apparently, one ovary was normal and roundish or whatever. the second one was LONG. and attached to my bowel. and stretched up to my abdomen, where ovaries in 35 yr old people shouldn't generally be. AND there was barely a fallopian tube attached to it. just part of one? i wasn't quite clear on that part.
she took pictures while she was in there and gave me copies, so if anyone wants to see my weird ovary, just send me a message lol
i asked if this would have affected a potential pregnancy and she was like "OH YEAH, definitely" so. GOOD THING i never wanted to birth a child. good thing all that shit is outta me.
now i got 6 to 8 weeks to do whatever the fuck i want as long as it doesn't involve strenuous activity or lifting 15+ pounds.

PSA: If you’re out in public and see a visibly disabled person sitting there minding their own business, you do NOT have the right to record them just because you think they’re lesser than you.
I was at a restaurant with my friend who’s “severely” autistic (I hate functioning labels but idk how else to describe it), his understanding of the world is on the level of about a 6-7 yr old, and he has apraxia, so his movements are stilted and forced, he’s super thin and just never gains weight so it exaggerates the awkwardness of his movements, and his speech is very slurred and hard to understand. So to the average person, yes, he looks and talks funny. He also carries around a giant Chuck E Cheese plush and a Curious George plush, so that might be seen by others as weird too. But he’s the sweetest guy, super cool, even if he’s not exactly a conversationalist. He’s really and truly great.
But this asshole sitting at the bar perpendicular to where we were at our table pulled out his phone and was openly recording him on video. Just because my friend had the audacity to exist in a public place as a visibly disabled person. I didn’t see it going on or I would’ve confronted them. The only person who saw it was my mom, and she flipped them off but didn’t say anything to them.
Like, what gives you the right to record someone who’s just minding their own business? Just because they look and sound different from the average person? I consider my friend to be my brother. He’s a great guy, and everyone who knows him adores him. But this person didn’t bother to come and ask questions or anything, just thought it would be funny to record him.
And this isn’t the first incident where someone has discriminated against him for being visibly disabled. One time we were at Chuck E Cheese, and this man decided he was gonna try and get my friend thrown out because he didn’t like the fact that he was existing in public as a visibly disabled person. He went to the manager and made up a lie that my friend had his hand down his pants and was watching the man’s child and fondling himself. My friend was wearing skinny jeans and couldn’t have fit his hand down his pants if he had TRIED, and he’s NEVER exhibited that kind of behavior before. This guy just didn’t like that a disabled man was daring to exist in public. Luckily, the manager didn’t believe his story, but she told my friend’s mom what happened, and my friend’s mom actually confronted the guy, and he left with his child, thank god.
Disabled people exist. They exist in public. And they have the RIGHT to exist in public. You don’t have the right to record them, nor do you have the right to try and get them kicked out of a public venue just for being disabled. Mind your own fucking business.
And it pisses me off because I’m autistic too, but I’ve NEVER had this kind of problem, because I’m good at masking and I don’t have apraxia. I appear perfectly “normal” to the average person most of the time, unless I’m stimming or something like that. But because my friend doesn’t have the ability to mask, he’s viciously discriminated against. It’s not FAIR. People need to mind their own fucking business and leave visibly disabled people the hell alone.
