#This is why there is drinking age people

[dyketubbo]

i remember seeing someone call tubbo a fully grown adult at 19 (obvs before he turned 20) and i gotta say. i think maybe some people have a really skewed idea of what constitutes as "fully grown". and also what constitutes as properly mature. thinking that at 18/19 (or hell even at 20/21) people are now fully grown and mature is insane to me like yall thats how you get people thinking their life is over at like 23 and that 30 year olds are senior citizens 😭😭 be fr

#this is a problem no matter where you look but i think a lot of ppl in the mcyt fandom esp seem to think once youre- #-considered an adult at all that it automatically means youre fully grown and mature and thats just nooottt really true for most ppl #which i think can lead people down to sort of dangerous paths especially because 'adult' is often defined by age of consent #and theres also some slight cultural differences like even just between the us and the uk where due to 18yr olds being able to drink in- #-the uk (and other places) i think it genuinely causes some dissonance #where i see often in the us that when youre 18/19 youre still treated (id say rightfully) as being rather young and not Truly a grown adult #hence. yk. the term Young Adult #but i think in places where the drinking age is younger it starts causing people to see younger people as more mature #which is also why a lot of predators like to push for the age of consent to be at a younger age like 15 or 16 #and why many lolicons try to point at japans age of consent (which for the record is complicated and not as simple as just 'age of consent- #-is 13') as a defense for how they act #because these sorts of milestones (having sex and drinking) are seen as marks of a true adult. which gets into a whole lot of other #complicated things #and often dangerous things and ways of thinking #ANYWAYS . basically 18/19 isnt fully grown 20 is also hardly fully grown itself #and theres ways to combat people infantilizing tubbo and other creators his age without acting like hes actually #fully grown and mature lol. i promise you humans are not fully grown at 20 years old are you kidding me 😭😭😭😭 #if youre in your 20s you still have a lot of time and space to grow i promise. do not fall for the idea that your life is done by like 23 #idk. im only 18 myself but it just feels insane to me that if i were a creator people would be calling me a fully grown adult #not that im not an adult but i dont think im mature enough to be seen as fully grown and i guess itssss. sad? #to see other people my age think that turning 18 means youre fully grown. just really not true #theres a lot of 30 year olds who still see early 20yr olds as being practically babies we have Not made it to full maturity yet i prommy #mask mews

so while i do think hinata loves parties and dancing and all that - i mean just look at him, he is the most extroverted energy-filled guy, ofc he loves parties - he does all of it stone-cold sober like there is no universe where hinata gets drunk on nights out, don't you know he has training in the morning?? also like the main reason people drink on nights out is like as a social lubricant or to relax and let loose, and hinata - besides being mindful of his health - does not need anyyy help in that regard that little sunshine is just as bubbly and enthusiastic as a normal person might be three drinks in

#idk i feel strongly about this #like in canon we're shown that he choses not to drink as part of staying healthy #which you could say is shonen rules but i don't think so hq!! doesn't shy away at all from showing its (of age) characters drinking #and it always pulls me out of fics or w/e when people talk about hinata drinking or getting drunk at parties bc like.... #that's just so not like him #i understand it's just a bit of fun #but i think shou is just as fun if not more when he's sober why are we the fandom peer pressuring him??? #just know if ever i write shou at a party he has been on water and lemonade the whole night #anyways #those are my thoughts for the day #hinata shouyou #haikyuu #alcohol mention tw

Good lord I wish I had the skills to write a one-off episode fic of Donna, Martha, and Rose solving some kind of scifi mystery. Where's the Doctor? Idk. Refueling the Tardis in Cardiff and he dropped the girls off to go shopping! Girls like shopping! [Post JE AU so they're like...."shopping. sure. How about group therapy instead?"].

Any concern about the Doctor's well-being alone is taken care of when Martha texts Jack to essentially supervise him while they're gone. They're at some little cafe, and a conversation is had about the Nonsense of s3, and then the conversation goes off the rails into something that actually passes the Bechdel test, Rose talking about her Torchwood (great start and going dark) vs Martha's (dark start going...better), and the latter's time with UNIT, and Donna saying that absolutely none of it topped the evil of some of the tech companies she's worked for which gets a laugh in agreement

....then across the cafe they overheard something about something weird being seen in the bay. The three women look over to them, then to each other. Then all stand up at the same time to ask about this weird thing, that definitely is going to turn out to be alien.

#i just CANNOT write Donna's voice #i'm not great with Rose's either #annie writes things #martha i've always been alright with #(been there done that) #((its why i get defensive when people act like martha was less intelligent for being driven by her unrequited crush)) #(((i have done some really fucked up stuff at the cost of my own mental wellbeing and sometimes physical because I was in love with a #really truly fuckin awful hipster jackass when i was her age [god i'm getting old] and yeah!!!! if your'e friends with them too its the #absolute worst and honestly...the whole ''if i'm not watching him he's gonna off himself'' GIRL. WE'RE GETTING DRINKS TOGETHER.))) #doctor who

Double shift last weekend and this is the only picture I got (which my coworker actually took with me for her Facebook story RIGHT when I looked like shit and it was low effort makeup day because I had to be there early to open the bar)

#a drunk girl in the bathroom called me pretty and two other regulars kissed me on the cheek and called me pet names this is why I'm gay #one of those regulars (who's the bff of my coworker i haven't worked with yet because she's taking a break) asked me to have shots with her #she and the other girl are the sweetest every time i swear they're there almost every weekend and they call me Schatz and Maus #the moment i came back in after putting away my bag and jacket on saturday a middle aged guy mentioned my volbeat hoodie #talked about all the metal bands he's seen like judas priest acdc saxon iron maiden and showed me some new songs he's been into lately #later sang mama i'm coming home to/with me and he and another guy gave me lots of career advice and encouraged me to be bolder in interview #a metalhead dude with long blonde hair and beard (who was also at a concert I worked at last month) winked at me and gave me like €4 tips #and every time he ordered his drinks he put his hand on the back of my head to say it in my ear #because the music from the speakers above was kinda loud but technically not loud enough to do That gjsgfjdshhh 😭😭 #he's so hot too he looks like a kind boyish viking idk if that makes sense but 😫😫 #the amount of people who have flirted with me or acted a little bit 😏 in the last three months #but nothing came of it so far just trusting they'll come back soon when i'm working the shift again #no phone numbers no insta handles we pine like in the old days and smirk when we see each other for the first time in a while #my face #the bartender chronicles

do you ever just. decide to check out ao3 for a new ship and realize that all of the top fics absolutely suck

#why do so many fics make up an age difference…. Peter and wade are the same age?? #maybe not the same year but probably pretty fucking close #like spider-man existed before Deadpool did #not to mention the overuse of a nickname that showed up in ONE panel. ONE #he calls him webs! not that! how many comics have these people actually read? #also the babyification of Peter Parker sucks so bad #like are y’all from Ancient Greece? why are you squishing canon to fit this specific mold? it’s not even a good one??? #the APPEAL of the ship is that they’re evenly matched like GOD please stop #also PETER PARKER DOESN’T DRINK everyone keeps getting that wrong! #he’s said it so many times!! #not to mention WHEN THEY FORGET THE HYPHEN #I can’t. just can’t.

darkners have food and drink that they can consume BUT light world liquid would fuck them up severely. if it flooded darkners would very much die

#LANCER SOG…… #I’m thinking abt this bc ag #again i Hate it when people call scc or queen robots (/lh(but still)) bc they. just arent. they’re people as far as they’re concerned #THEY KNOW THEY ARE OBJECTS queen says she’s a computer and kk says he’s a cd player but they weren’t bu #they weren’t Built like that they just look humanoid bc that’s the form the fountain gave them. do i make sense #they drink milk and acid bc dark world food like darkners themselves Aren’t Real (susie says it feels like nothing she eats there matters ) #their forms Arent Real. they do not look like that For Real.in their own little universe thats just what they look like they were not built #they were built IN THE LIGHT WORLD bc they are electronics. they were manufactured. yknow. but in the dark world they were ‘born’ like that #no one cares and I Should Not Care but i am thinking about darkners logistics forever and always ok #IN THAT SAME VEIN OF SHIT THAT DO NOT MATTER THAT I CARE ABOUT SO MUCH. i don’t like the goopy rouxls interpretation. he’s made of paper #he’s a card there’s no reason for him to be goopy. #i know it’s bc how his mouth is drawn but still #that’s why i interpret it as a scratch on his card #he is two dimensional #anyway good morning #was this my first post today i don’t remember #deltarune #words from the monarch

if i start posting about my one copia-coded oc. well. be ready for that.

#thinking about her so much lately. she kills people for her dad who pretends he's not her dad. she's autistic. she's never been truly loved. #she loves ants and has an ant farm and leaves old food all over her bedroom so more ants will come over. #she has a ridiculous makeup routine she has to do every day or she'll die. she eats string cheese and cold boiled eggs and energy drinks. #she has a younger half-brother who's a marine biologist and hates her. #her entire character arc is her wanting to get fucked so bad she orchestrates a coup. #she's jesus coded (dies age 33 and comes back). #somehow i made her long before i ever knew copia existed. but i'm sure you can see now why he appeals to me so much. #anyway i wrote one egregiously long book about her but it ended up in my backlog. and got kinda unwieldy. #so i'm gonna pick it for scraps + write another one and just. focus on what really matters this time (all of the above things). #she's probably my favorite oc like i for real have written something in the range of 250k words of content about her. #anyway. ANYWAY.

i keep reading that lil story u shared and that’s just so heartbreakingly cute(?) idk,, i’m sending him good vibes

aw anon!!! 🥺🥺🥺 this is really sweet :(( i understand what you mean! it’s stuck with me for years, especially the way he said it like the ‘i can’t—i can’t take you out just yet’ was so,,, honestly i don’t even have a word to describe it. really earnest, maybe? not desperate or begging but a genuine hey, i’m getting out of here soon and i’d really love to take you on a date the moment i can. i dunno, it was really endearing! i really do wanna write something inspired by it 🥺 i sincerely hope he’s doing wonderful <3

#i literally said ‘i have a boyfriend; i’m really sorry’ because he was so aaah i dunno yeah it really is that like risking it to just catch #up to me for a moment and talk to me #i think it was also just that hopeful note in his voice #like almost proud that he’d be leaving soon—which he should be!!! #that’s awesome #it takes a lot of bravery to be there and go through their programs etc #my dad could never make himself go through rehab so i have a lot of respect and admiration for the people who were brave enough to do it #people don’t understand how terrifying it is to do that and the strength you need to stick with it #so really hope this guy is absolutely flourishing now #sending him tons of love #probably would’ve said yes to him had i been single tbh #anyway anon!!! i’m glad this story touched you! i don’t know why it was on my mind today but i wanted to share it #because it has touya vibes #dabi was out presumably homeless on the streets from ages 16-24 so #i’m rambling i shall stop now #i hope thursday has been treating u well!! <3 #stay safe n drink water bb <3 #inky.bb #clari gets mail

Even though I'm old enough for it now at 21 I think I'm still set on not really ever wanting to drink alcohol. Simply more for preference than anything but I'm also prone to migraines and Tummy Issues™ so it's probably better for me generally if I avoid it

#cookie.txt #don't know why i bring this up now #ig i was just thinking about it #since we're nearing the end of the year and all its holidays #and people tend to expect you to want alcohol on holidays if you're of drinking age #especially on new year's eve

🌀🌀🌀oooh you want to read the ninth rain by Jen Williams sooooo bad ooooooohhh 🌀🌀🌀

#I just finished it. why is no one talking about this series #there’s alien worm invaders. a rich mad scientist middle aged lesbian who is obsessed with the alien worm invaders. #a nearly wiped out ancient empire of vampire elves who used to fight the worm people. one specific bitchy vain dramatic mean vampire elf #who I think about daily. a newly escaped convict witch with a penchant for blowing stuff up. #there is a romance that involves drinking blood and it makes me go insane I guess that is my theme for late 2023 #it’s so fucking good #the plot what is the plot. well! there is a lot of walking around and talking about history #which I like! it takes like 200ish pages to pick up imo but like after that it is so fucking good I think #anyway. read it.

[vanians]

fun little scam i think you could run if youre 21 ish is start telling people youve never drank because like 50 people will come out of the woodwork to offer to buy you your first drink. so. get it for free i guess

#or whatever the drinking age is. im just american #speaking from experience of being 21 and actually never drinking #not on purpose but i dont think people realize how many experiences are social and thats why ive never had them. so.
