#sitting at the store

[rosekasa]

i think what i adore about ladynoir beyond high school age (18 and over) is the opportunity it leaves for some of the most DELICIOUS best friends to lovers scenarios. because, like, two people who've been fighting side by side for years? who've known each other long enough to make jokes about it, haha remember when we were fourteen and you-- we AGREED to never speak of it!!!! who've spent so long learning each other inside out, even, in chat noir's case, getting over feelings, that the idea of anything romantic between them is so far off the radar that they don't feel the need for certain boundaries, because why would it matter if they made jokes about how attractive they find each other, about getting married, about how they could totally mess with the rest of the miracle team by pretending they're hooking up because it's so far out of the realm of possibility.

but then there would be that imperceptible shift. the moment where one of them makes a joke and it feels just a bit more loaded than it should. gazes lingering where they never lingered and playful smiles turning curious. the sudden awareness that, while maybe they were cuddling on a rooftop with their best friend, they were also wrapped up in the arms of someone they trust with their lives, and is extremely attractive, and, wait, if the only reason it was platonic before was because there were no feelings, what does THIS mean?

THE TENSION. THE PINING. THE INHERENT MESS OF BEING IN YOUR TWENTIES. PLEASEEEE

#as i go through more things in life i ache for ladynoir to experience it too #i want them to be at a grocery store and for him to reach out to tickle her and she turns around and makes a joke but their gazes linger way #too knowingly #i want them to sit down and have a 'okay like this is so tmi but isnt the concept of sex so weird??' conversation #i want them to joke about starting a podcast together #make impulsive amazon purchases that make no sense #find a song that one of them hate and then continuously play it on loop #compare spotify profiles and one of them steals the other's login to sabotage their spotify wrapped for the year #do you know i am so normal about ladynoir #♡alizeh talks♡ #tagged:ladynoir

based off an actual thing that happened to me

#my art #stardew #stardew valley #stardew sebastian #so the story is #i was in this antique store because I wanted to browse the place #and i eyed this jar of seashells that was labelled 1998 #it looked cool #the lady at the counter saw me and said oh those were handpicked from #some beach on the east coast #and i #The idiot stick riddled with social illness #said oh haha nice #and then we had a painfully one sided conversation on said jar of shells #I was the only person in that store #so i felt stupidly obligated to buy them #and I did #now they sit on my desk and I don’t know what to do with them

Also idk what parent needs to hear this but with the curriculum changing to reflect bigotry, you'll have to pickup the slack at home.

Not knowing your history and awful education leads to entire countries of people that dont know what communism actually is, never learned about organized workers movements (despite capitalism being the system), and can't recognize fascism when it's staring them in the face.

It's not a coincidence bigots are densely populated in areas with awful education systems. And it's not a coincidence they don't even see it as bigotry.

My kid is 9. She knows about police brutality, classism, and racism and why we fight it. She had to. She's brown kid, poor, and ADHD; naive by nature for the moment and I don't want her being taken advantage of or exploited. It's why she knows about boundaries, saying "no", and listening to herself.

This year during PRIDE she'll learn about stonewall and why we're still fighting for that too. She's old enough to tag along and participate with more understanding so she will. She's learned about bodily autonomy and women's rights as well. And she's learned about having a healthy relationship with nature; to respect the critters, plants, water, and climate.

Protest and fighting and standing up for yourself and your rights and being a good ally are all family values in my house. And if the school won't teach that to her then it's on me, just like it's on all of us.

And no, she doesn't know or understand enough to have a whole debate but she's 9. There's still so much time to teach her more. But she understands the basics and for kids, it really doesn't need to be more complicated than that because she's just interacting with other kids.

I taught her about police & homophobia in 2020 as soon as I got her back from her homophobic dad. She was 6.

It was as easy as "But I'm a gay people too & when you say theyre gross that hurts my feelings. Do you have to think what your dad thinks?"

Giving her the freedom to make that choice herself, to disagree, and grow out of it and end that association with "gross" was the best thing I could've done for her. Cuz guess who told me she might like boys and girls 3 years later?

Those many tiny talks over time could've saved her from decades of shame induced trauma.

Our kids deserve everything. And they deserve better. We must teach them that and we need to teach them to fight for it. Teach them what to fight against.

They aren't too young. Give them more credit. "Think of the children" by educating yours.

#im also not sitting there giving lectures #just every now and then we'll talk about it - bring it up while watching a show or talk about inflation at the store for example #i don't want to discuss it with her so much that she becomes stressed by it so its only maybe once a month or so #keeps her critical thinking skills enaged #parenting #parents #allies #gen alpha #millenials #gen z #solidarity #fascism

every single day i think about the influence touya would have had on shouto as an older brother.

he has to take him everywhere he goes, so they're always jamming to the same hardcore music in touya's shitty car. shouto, obviously, develops a taste for the same bands, same songs. shouto is also in the ride-along to buy cigarettes and beer at midnight, and touya threatens his whole entire life if he tells rei, but shouto would never because he likes going too much.

shouto 100% would attempt to kick the ass of anyone that talked shit to his brother. little string bean, doesn't matter, this little boy is throwing HANDS for touya, and touya very much has the attitude of "no one can fuck with my little brother but me". whenever shouto gets in trouble for doing something he shouldn't be doing, touya is always taking the fall for him, no questions asked. shouto lies for touya like it's second nature.

shouto wants an earring because of touya, and touya probably GIVES the piercing to him, which makes enji blow a gasket. touya learns to play the drums and then shouto wants to, too — though he ends up being better than touya and touya promptly quits after that. touya teaches him to drive. shouto gets drunk for the first time with touya BECAUSE touya wants to be there to take care of him. they hate each other, they get into fist fights all the time, rolling around the house as fuyumi screams at both of them. they're best friends. they understand each other more than anyone else ever could.

#they're partners in crime #they fight CONSTANTLY especially at home #shouto makes a face at touya and flips him off and it's SO TOUYA. like SUCH ATTITUDE #touya will sit next to rei at dinner all 'mom what the fuck is wrong with your shitty kid' and — he's scolded for cussing — but #rei is like. are you serious rn. he's exactly like you #which they both VEHEMENTLY DISAGREE WITH #touya pretends to throw up violently at the accusation and shouto twists his little face up like that's the worst thing he's ever heard #and then later they're both playing a video game together ajfbduskak #like they are such BROTHERS #natsuo is there too but i think he's so inbetween them both that he wants to be his own person #shouto is young enough to be influenced by EVERYTHING touya does #and touya is like 😒😒😒 you're so goddamn annoying 😒😒😒😒 are you coming with me to the store or what 😒😒😒😒 #peeling my skin off i want this so much :) #screaming with my mouth closed :) #i dont even know what to tag this skgbsiakqk #✿ willow writes #✿ thoughts: dabi/touya

I won't make any grand, sweeping statements about it, but I do think taking public transit has and continues to make me a better person than I would be otherwise.

#on the bus today a gentleman in front of me gave up his seat so an elderly couple could sit together #the bus driver said ''oh!'' in a decidedly surprised and pleased way when I thanked him for the ride #at one of the stores I stopped in the woman behind the counter almost slipped in some snowmelt #and I was one of three people reaching for her; trying to catch her #I just think it's very easy to get lost in your head; I live alone I work remotely most of the time #it's important sometimes to be reminded that people move through the world gently and well. #celestial emporium of benevolent knowledge

one piece filler ep where they run into another peto-peto villain of the week guy but this time instead the devil fruit power rearranges people's brain chemistry so they have the thoughts behaviours emotional intelligence etc of a dog. zoro gets hit but he's just exactly the same

#it's a problem in that of it's a non-problem. i.e. no one notices so it never gets addressed. the straw hats just leave #zoro starts growling and barking at an enemy mid-fight and nami's like i really wish this was new for you but we all know it's not. #sanji finds zoro in the store room like 4 weeks later on all fours gnawing on a bone and is like yeah nothing out of the ordinary here #(kicks him out) #his tactile needs increase marginally but luffy's already on top of this so it goes entirely under the radar #he catches a rabbit with his bare teeth and starts shaking it around and usopp just starts screaming CAN YOU FUCKING STOP WITH THAT SHIT #(normal usopp-zoro interaction) #zoro gets flocked by children one time and he just. accepts it. Lets them pile up and crawl all over him. And Robin's like ''actually....' #''No. Nothing new.'' #the gang only start getting suspicious 4 months in when zoro gets into a habit of sitting between luffy's legs or at his feet #but the suspicion is honestly more directed towards the relationship status there #one piece #op #opla #zolu #roronoa zoro #zoro #CJ's op watch-through

Stiles: Um, sure. Let's see...hmmm...Oh! If you see a drowsy looking bee on the ground, you can give it a little drop of sugar water to help make it feel better.

Derek, in the middle of cleaning out a bullet wound:

Stiles:

Stiles: I'm now starting to realize that you were probably asking me for a "Q-Tip" rather than a "cute tip".

#sterek #teen wolf #derek hale #stiles stilinski #tyler hoechlin #dylan o'brien #mieczysław stiles stilinski #incorrect teen wolf quotes #incorrect quotes #incorrect teen wolf #Stiles: Sorry. That's my bad. #Derek: No no. I didn't realize how much I needed to hear that today. That was delightful. Thank you. #Derek: But yes. I would also very much appreciate a Q-tip if you wouldn't mind. That would be very helpful right now. #Speaking of cute tips: you can buy stickers of your kids' favorite characters and stick them to veggies at the store #Your kids will be more willing to eat them if they think you're buying “Avengers Brand” zucchini or “Paw Patrol Brand” carrots #Also if your cat likes to sit on your laptop while you work hook up a wireless keyboard and quietly type to the side as you pet your cat

something soft ive been working on for @redminibike1 in the between-moments at work. based on A Scene from their story The More I See You -- a tale of class and bookshops and the 1920s that pays absolutely NO rent in my heart and deserves its spot amongst your repertoire Red my darling!! 💓💞

I love Moth Howdy’s extreme floof, he is an actual puff ball and I want to live in his hair

i guess you could say he's a.... mothball

(amplified fluff for your viewing pleasure <3)

#as soon as i scribbled the first one i was Immediately reminded of that 'a christmas story' scene #where the protag's lil bro was so bundled up for snowy weather that he couldnt lower his arms #fluffy howdy.... #moths are the Supreme Fluffs #scribble salad #welcome home #i am very very fond of moths so moth howdy Is capturing my heart #if i sit down to actually like. solidify a Design... actually i might keep him this fluffy. might just. #im still not aaaaas attached as i am w/ butterfly!howdy since it suits him much better imo #howdy deserves to be ostentatious and just So Fruity #and butterfly him Delivers on that methinks #but i am still Fond of moth howdy #he must leave dust Everywhere... #im imagining him in his store sweeping while his wings just shower moth dust everywhere #he turns around - didnt he just clean that spot? *sweep sweep* #turns around again - HUH? he just swept! *sweep sweep* turns around- #hard cut to ten minutes later hes frantically sweeping like a complete madman. absolutely losing it.

nervous subject as the cool older brother in a teen movie

#ts4 #ts4 cas #ts4 simblr #simblr #show us your sims #i tried to replicate his ts2 self while also making him in my style #i've been wanting to make nervous forEVER #i like to imagine he’s in a band with his old high school friends #and he works at a pet store and he likes to sit and watch the fish 😌 and he named all of the rats #and he has a massive collection of fossils and geodes 😌
