#and I don’t think that’s heathy I think being a kid is when your human instincts and desires are most obvious

I think if I’d known and gotten into the furry fandom as a child Id be in it today, bc like most kids I’d play with friends pretending to be animals, but I’ve since lost that part of myself the same way I’ve lost the ability to play with stuffed animals the way I naturally did as a child. So I think it’s cool there’s people who retain that part of themselves to adulthood. I’ve retained those child instincts too just in different ways, mostly in my art but instead of drawing characters id want to be it’s drawing places and worlds id like to be in. And I think this is true for most people whether they realize it or not that they carry these child instincts of playing pretend into adulthood in various ways, like larping or dnd or playing video games

I would love to have either a Roman Prequel Series or a Hunters of Artemis Spin-off
I want to see Jason and Reyna just becoming close and bonding because we never saw that. Also the moments when Jason and Reyna came to Camp and there adventures togther fighting monsters, going on quests and becoming prators, them becoming close friends and how it almost became more.
I want to see how Jason became this leader like how we saw Percy did. That’s why the fandom loves Percy but not Jason because we never saw how Jason became Jason and how he developed to who he is in Heroes of Olympus. I feel like Jason would stand up for the 5th Corhort of them being treated differently because there the “weakest”. Jason felt pressured being the son of Jupiter, and having to live up to that expectation. Jason loved the Romans but he never felt at home in Camp Jupiter.
I want to see Reyna learning about herself and her own self love. I want to see her become the strong character we see in Heroes of Olympus. Her having to hide how she really felt because of her being a praetor. That sometimes she cracks under stress and pressure and just hides it. Her bottling up her emotions and realizing it’s not heathy.
I want to learn all about the side characters like Gwen and Dakota who we saw in SoN. I want to see and learn about who they are as people and get to know more of there backstory. I want to know how they feel about Jason, Reyna, Octavian, and about Gods specifically there parents. We’re they mad and bitter like some demigods were or did they understand that there gods and they don’t pay attention to there kids sometimes but still care? I want to see them get fleshed out arcs like we saw with Clarrise.
I want to see more of the 5th Corhort team and all the stupid shit they would get into like we see with the Greeks. Sure they still would train and fight monsters but just imagine them playing pranks on each other or sneaking out late night to party or something like that. We saw how even though the Greeks did prepare for quests and fought monsters, they still acted like kids or teenagers.
I want to see the moment when Frank and Hazel came to Camp Jupiter. Hazel being the daughter of Pluto, making her feel like an outcast like how Nico was. Plus being in the 5th Corhort to add to that. I want to see how she feels about people treating her differently because of her dad being Pluto. She already was mistreated in the 30s for the color of her skin. I want see her badass moments of her beating someone in a sword fight and proving to everyone that just because she small dosen’t mean she can kick your ass.
I want to see Frank being self-consciences and insecure of how he looks. How everyone has these muscler body in Camp Jupiter and then there him. I want to see him learn about how he is amazing and strong and it dosen’t matter how much he weighs. I want to see more of that and how he’s slowly becoming better.
I want to see cute Frazel moments of them either awkwardly flirting and being all cute togther. I want see Frank teaching Hazel about mordern life, which would be so cute.
I want to see Nico cameos and him accidentally almost blowing his cover several times but covers it up, the reader knowing what or who he’s talking about. Reyna being suspicious but brushed it off, thinking he’s a son of Pluto and there all just werid. Also the Roman’s dissing the Greeks and Nico pretending that it’s funny but he’s lowkey mad.
I want to see to build up to why Octavian acts like he dose. We never really saw why Octavian acted like he did in Heroes of Olympus, with Luke there was a reason because he was mad at the Gods for not caring and we understand why he’s petty. Luke never had a parent figure growing up and Hermes could have done something about it but he didn’t. Something similar in Octavian’s childhood could have pushed him to act that way.
I want to see the wars they faced. The one in California during the “Battle of Manhattan”. How the Romans reacted to there friends and family dying. All the work and training the put for this battle. How they keep pushing through and we see a more humane side to them. The Romans are not all business and work, there more than that.
I want to see different POV’s like we saw in Heroes of Olympus. I want to see all the adventures they’ve had. The monster fights and training. Going on quest to save the Camp or even the world. I want to see the introductions to characters we all know and love. I want to see even the fun times they’ve had because the Romans are not all training and work. I want to see the heartbreak of there friends or siblings dying. We saw how the Greek were and how they acted, now we should see how the Romans are.
Another thing I want to see is the Hunters spin-off
I want to see how the hunters fuction and work. I want to see the badass monster fights or missions they go on. I want to even see the stupid shit like them seeing who can fit the most marshmallows in there mouth or Thalia making a bunch of pop culture references that no one gets. I want to see the Hunters being the queens they are and showing that hey you don’t need a singficant other. You can still be powerful with or without a partner. The Hunters imbody female power and sisterhood.
We have seen a lot about the Greeks and now I want to learn about the other two groups, the Romans and the Hunters.

reese’s EXTRAvaganza...
Tumblr media
disclaimers: {yes, this is basically a follow forever at the request of heath} {no, i did not do that trend justice} {i have 2 friends} {enjoy this smorgasbord of chaos}
Tumblr media Tumblr media
as you all know, i started this humble blog as a blissful joon bias. life was good. i loved bonsai trees, art museums, and one (1) god of destruction. flash-forwards a few months, kook burst onto the scene with his fluffy hair and his black clothing and his fricking wide eyes. TOO MANY TIMES DID I LIE AWAKE AND THINK “why am i being subject to such wrecking?” “what am i even doing?” “what is the meaning of life?” IT NEEDED TO END.
one day, i stopped lying to myself and decided to come clean by double biasing joon and kook. BUT NO. JUNGKOOK WAS STILL NOT SATISFIED. THAT BRAT WANTED ME ALL TO HIMSELF (but who wouldn’t? sksksk okay, probably everyone). after reading the entirety of the sub!jk genre and writing my own fics, i came to the grim and shameful realization that i was indeed whipped for the maknae. (this just in: today’s video of jungkook sitting on his bed singing with his tattoos out? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? the FINAL STRAW.)
hi. my name is reese, formerly known as lustjoon. and i’m a jungkook bias.
my url is @luxekook​.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
as some of you may know, i’ve only been active in the tumblr community for a few months now. however, those months have been great and full of new friends. one friend in particular (who is the king of being soft) demanded requested a follow forever post to commemorate my new milestone or whateva. as i think follow counts are meh and am a chaotic and unconventional person, i have decided to spice things up and make this a little different. 
so, buckle up! It’s time for the reese’s pieces awards. (also, before y’all roast me, YES i’m only doing three awards. why? because i suck! also because i have 87 fics to write and double that amount in academic papers OOF)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The King of UWU Award: Heath @shadowsremedy​
lemme tell you about my friend heathy… he slid into my tumblr dms waaay back when i posted intimidation to tell me that someone had plagiarized my work. without even knowing anything about me besides my url, heathy gathered his friends to report and message the author who stole my fic. long story short, that author deleted it, and my love for heath was cemented. HE IS A RIDE OR DIE SWEETHEART WHO WILL DEFEND HIS FRIENDS AND WHOEVER HE FEELS IS IN NEED. i cannot explain the amount of uwus that is heathy. and for that reason, he gets the reese’s pieces award for being the king of uwu!
The Lovable Loose Cannon Award: Tay @interludemoonchild​
oh lord, where to begin with this girl. there is never a dull moment with tay. she - without fail - will make anyone and everyone laugh with her big emojis, her horrific emojis, and her general extra tay nature. she is also so sweet and trusting and loyal, like she might really be the griffinosifudis she proclaims to be (yes, that was how she spelled gryffindor). you never really know what you’re going to get from tay… will it be heartbreaking angst (RIP [redacted], i will never forgive you, tay), kinky smut (STAN BAPTISM), or hybrid hyungline (i may have commissioned this sskskskks). but, not knowing is half the fun! therefore, the reese’s pieces award for the lovable loose cannon goes to tayyyyy. 
The Loyal Encourager of Shenanigans Award: Jess @rkivenamu​
grab a snack (preferably a banana) and get comfortable bc this will be a big boi of a dedication. jess, the almighty creator of banana jin and sub!maknae smut, is an all around 10/10 human!! (and yes, jess, i know u don’t like affection so i will try my best to stay chill...) what i appreciate most about jess is that she always encourages my wildest dreams. veggie tales au? she supports. kidz bop au? she is ready for it! moss!reader x florist jimin? she stans! IDK what i did in a past life to deserve such a loyal and supportive kween in my life but THANK U PAST REESE!!!!! jess also encouraged me to acknowledge my kook bias so plz partially blame her for this chaos (skjkjkdshjsbkdbfh). AND SO WITHOUT FURTHER ADO, the award for the loyal encourager of shenanigans goes to jessssss UWU!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
there is so much i could say about each and every one of you! but, i think it all boils down to ~thank you~ thank you for following me and putting up with my erratic self! I truly appreciate y’all :’)

The new advisor (tdp OC one-shot)
It was Rayla who first saw the new face as she walked through the gates of the Castle. After living in Katolis for almost five years, she new almost every court member by name or at least seen their face. Even if it has not really been five years since she and Callum have been traveling back and forth between the human kingdoms and Xadia for the past year and a half. This time they had been gone for 5 months, for yet another peace treaty.
It took Callum, who was walking beside her, his hand in hers, a few seconds longer to notice the unfamiliar person standing a few meters away from them (Rayla likes to believe that it is because the assassin training helped sharpen her senses, even if she doesn’t have any real proof that her eyes are better than his). Callum stopped in front of the new girl, she seemed to be around Ezran’s age, a bit smaller than Callum and wore a hood that was like the one Opeli normally wore. They could still see a bit of her light brown hair that turned blond at the ends and her green eyes looked at them rather excited, even if her posture appeared to be formal. Rayla noticed that she tried to hide her emotions with her posture, but her eyes betrayed her, and Callum noticed that she reminded him a lot of Opeli, not only because of the hood. Before either of them could introduce themselves, the girl started talking.
“It is an honor to meet you, Prince Callum and Lady Rayla”, she said and bowed, “the king asked me to meet you here and take you to the throne room, where he is waiting. He asked Barius to make even more jelly tarts than normal” she smiled at the last information. “Thank you… uhm sorry, if I’m being rude but I haven’t seen you before, are you new here?”, Callum asked polite. “Oh, I’m so sorry, I forgot to introduce myself”, she said and bowed again, “my name is Leila and I am the new adviser in training. Opeli has been teaching me for the last 3 months”, she explained and looked up, “she told me to introduce myself, because you have been gone for the last five months, but I forgot. Please excuse my mistake” Rayla and Callum looked at each other, since it now made sense why they did not recognize her, but now they had other questions like: Why did Opeli start to recruit a new advisor? Why did they choose a kid for that (granted, she probably was a teen, but since she was around Ezran’s age and was still a kid to them, so was she)?
“It is nice to meet you”, Rayla said finally and Leila smiled and answered, “it is an honor to meet to of the heroes that saved the dragon prince” before she lead the way to the throne room.
--
Both Rayla and Callum where a bit suspicious, but the moment they arrived at the throne room and the guards only glanced at Leila before they let her pass, their suspicion passed away. She opened the doors and walked in front of the throne, Callum and Rayla following her. Leila stopped and bowed: “my king, Prince Callum and Lady Rayla have returned and are here as you requested”. Ezran looked up from a scroll he was reading and it still amazed Rayla and Callum how much Ezran had grown in the past five years (even if they saw him five months ago). He grew and was as tall as Rayla was when they first met and even if he still had his unruly hair, it was not too big for his head anymore. He still had his soft features which made him look as friendly as before.
“Callum! Rayla!”, he rushed to them and tackled them into a hug, which ended with all three of them on the ground. He was still the same Ezran.
Leila was fast enough to avoid being coughed in the people pile and walked over to where Opeli was standing, on the left side of the throne, while Corvus was standing on the right. It took a few minutes until he let them go. They quickly said hello to Opeli and Corvus.
After Callum and Rayla explained how their mission went and Ezran updated them on everything that has been going on at the castle, Barius walked into the throne room and the trio had a jelly tart break while Opeli excused herself and Leila, since she had to continue teaching her, and Corvus went to the courtyard to train.
During the update about the castle Callum and Rayla learned that having Leila as a advisor in training was his idea and Opeli agreed, because she thought that it was a good idea to have someone that was Ezrans age around (since Callum and Rayla have to leave for meetings all the time). “Why did you decide that it should be Leila? How did you meet?”, Callum asked confused. Ezran explained that she was wrongly accused of hurting a child, but it turned out that she protected the child, but the parent misunderstood. While she was still at the castle, she witnessed a dispute between two members of the high council. Opeli later told me how she talked with the high council members, as if she herself had taught politics and her arguments sounded like they could have been from Ezran. That is how he came to ask if Opeli thought she taught that Leila was advisor material.
“Ezran… you truly have a good heart”, Rayla said and put her hand on his shoulder, “but don’t you think that it’s a bit too risky to train a stranger to be one of your advisors? What if she is out to kill you?”. Callum nodded to show his agreement, of course it was an extreme thought, that Leila wanted to kill Ezran, but he was the king and you could not be careful enough. Especially because not everyone is happy how he wants to have peace with Xadia.
“Bait trusts her”, Ezran answered and pointed to the glow toad sitting in his lap. “Does… does Bait know her?”, Callum asked, the glow toad still was a bit of a mystery to the prince. “No, he doesn’t”, Ezran said smiling, “how would he? But he told me that she is trustworthy, and it wouldn’t be bad for either of us, if we keep her around”. Callum and Rayla looked at the animal in question. “Why do I feel like he is planning something? Or knows something we don’t?”, Callum asked and looked at Rayla. “Sometimes I would really like to know what is going on in his brain”, Rayla mumbled.
--
“You are dismissed”, Opeli said and closed the book, that she was holding in her hand. “Thank you Opeli, I will ask the King if there is anything left to do, before I will go to sleep”, Leila said and bowed, before she walked out of Opeli’s office like room. The sun had already set, as she walked through the halls to the throne room. There is stood in front of the King, keeping her head slightly bowed. “Opeli dismissed me, so I came to ask if there is anything, I can do for you”.
Ezran had already said goodnight to Callum and Rayla since they were exhausted from travelling. He was playing chess with Corvus which had become a bit of a routine for the two of them. The tradition started because they used to search Bait every evening, because he did not want to go to bed and Corvus offered to help. When Bait stopped disappearing at the end of the day, they decided to play chess, or another board or card game if they felt like it, to discuss the events of the day, since it was what the used to do while searching for Bait.
“No, you are free to do whatever you want”, Ezran said, “you could also join us. If you aren’t to tired”. Leila smiled but shook her head lightly, “thank you but I think my bed is calling me”, she said and Corvus chuckled: “don’t worry, you can always join us on another day”. It was true, Ezran would always ask her to join and sometimes she did, but today had been a busy day for the advisor in training. Leila nodded and scanned the chess board before she turned to Corvus, suddenly turning serious. “Corvus, as unofficial, somewhat official protector of the king I wanted to remind you how important every person around the king is, especially his loved ones. If they are gone, what will happen to the King?”, she asked and was about to answer, but Ezran interrupted her, “the King will fall! Ha, checkmate!”. While Corvus was looking at her confused, Ezran had understood her hint and managed to take Corvus’ Queen and cornering his King in one move. Leila smiled and bowed, “good night, your majesty” she apologetically patted Corvus’ shoulder, her smile never leaving her lips, “good night Corvus, sorry. But your Queen was almost begging for that”. She left the throne room with Corvus’ “oh come on, that’s cheating” and Ezrans “Wuhu, thanks Leila!”
--
“Callum is right, I do feel like you know more than us”, Ezran told the glow toad later at night as he sat down on his bed, Bait in his hands. Bait just looked at him without any expression. “Maybe you can just read people really well”, Ezran assumed.
A few weeks passed, before he found out, what Bait knew that he did not.
--------------------------------------------------
Hey tdp fandom!
I’m super nervous, because this is m first time posting any of my drafts, but I wanted you to met my OC Leila! I wrote this a while ago and in this one-shot I just wanted to introduce her. I do have a few other drafts that have her origin, how she became the advisor in training and of course a one shot revealing why Bait thinks that she is trustworthy (she does have quite a few secrets up her sleeve). I may post them in the future (depending how Long this quarantine is going to last and how much more I’m gonna lose of my sanity).
I hope you enjoyed my small introduction of Leila and it is mentioned above,but I just wanted to mention again: This plays five years after the events of the Show (or at least, after the events of Season 3)
Sorry if there are any grammar or spelling mistakes, english is not my native language.  
Stay heathy and happy!

This July was the 10th anniversary of my moms death. This year has been the absolute hardest year without my mom by far. I've faced a lot of firsts this year I never saw coming.
I have a story to share. I don't know if anyone will read this but I'm going to say it.
Back in 2009 the H1N1 flu outbreak happened. That year the most popular Halloween costume was along the lines of a pig with a mask. Everyone I knew mocked the H1N1. Called it fake. Called it political. The vaccine had the mark of the beast. Only those people who are immunocompromised die anyway, so what's the big deal? You know, the usual temper tantrums. I get it. Serious illness isn't fun.
You know what else isnt fun? Having an immunocompromised family member during an outbreak.
Being in high school and watching your mom puke her guts out from her latest chemo treatment. Actually puke blood because she's puked so many times her stomach and throat are bleeding.
To come home from school and walk to the back door, having to use a separate entryway than your mom to decrease the germ transfer from your shoes. To take off your outer clothes systematically and then scrub like youre preparing for surgery, all before getting your after school snack. Which is stored separately from your moms food, by the way, because not only can your family barely afford to feed one person all organic, the risk of contaminating her food is so high.
To have to wave to your mom across the livingroom during the flu outbreak instead of hugging her. Even though you know there isn't a lot of time left for precious hugs to begin with, but the risk is too high. To spray everything you touch with alcohol or bleach to protect your moms absent immune system.
Then go back to school to listen to little parrot-like children script how fake the flu is and only the really useless people with bum immune systems die anyway. To be mocked as "sheep" when your family decides to get the vaccine because herd immunity for your mom is her best chance. My mom survived the H1N1 and its because we did our best at protecting her. she didn't survive cancer.
My own kids run barefoot. They eat dirt. Because we are privileged and blessed with a healthy immune system, we can afford to naturally build their immune systems with dirt, and heathy food and sunshine.
But I still make them wash their hands and I'm teaching them to wear a mask and "give our friends lots of space" to protect those who immune systems cant fight this Covid-19, and those who are caregivers for the immunocompromised, and those who have an underlying comorbidity like asthma or diabetes.
Unfortunately I've experienced the most judgement and insults from christian neighbors for so easily "giving up my rights". I'm called a sheep and it triggers flashbacks. As if it's in the bible thou shalt not give up thy right to convenience of not wearing a mask.
It must be nice to be part of a school, office or church where there is not ONE SINGLE person that is or cares for those who are immunocompromised that could benefit from you wearing a mask and keeping your respiratory germs to yourself, huh? Must be nice.
My local icecream shop has a handwritten sign in the window that reads "if you don't feel safe here, stay home" and I've myself chuckled, knowing they're addressing the Karen's of this world. But deep down, I cringe and my stomach knots because they're also addressing people like my mom on chemo, and her children and her nurses.
You will NEVER understand the immense stress and the soul sucking isolation a family faces when someone they love is immunocompromised until you've lived in it. Constantly thinking about germs like you're in a battlefield. Wiping down groceries is our norm. Getting sunshine for vitamin D is impossible, the parks are too dangerous. unless you have your own private backyard, and even then the dirt is a carrier of germs. It goes on and on and on.
I wear a mask because I love ALL of my neighbors. And perfect love casts out all fear. My love for my neighbors is bigger than my fear of a shadow government. In fact I have this funny belief that Jesus is bigger than governments. One day Jesus will separate the sheep and the goats. I guess I'm glad I'm a sheep. Sorry not sorry.
- My sister
I felt like this needed to be shared here too. I was only in Middle school during H1N1, not even 11. I don't remember much, but I remember that fear, that sadness, anger, the dread. This whole situation does drag up those memories. You'd think that people would learn, but human history proves otherwise.
I myself am a caregiver for immunocompromised individuals. I may be healthy but I pay attention to everything I do. I wash my hands, wear my mask, and stay away from others. Like a decent human being.

Hi! I'm really excited about how your blog will turn out! I hope this question is okay, but I was wondering how the main four would feel about dating a girl with an eating disorder like bulimia or anorexia? If you aren't comfortable with answering, I understand, I'm just curious about people's opinions on it :))
Stan:
Would always try to help, but would be very scared of overstepping boundaries.
Very torn between keeping it secretive or telling everyone in search of help.
Switches between being very persistent in helping, and not mentioning it at all. After trying to help, he often thinks he went too far and ends up going silent about the issue for a while.
Leaves you little treats and candies in hopes you’ll eat them.
Always buys you a huge meal when you are out and doesn’t care what happens to it.
“I just want you to have something to eat if you want it. I’ll love you either way.”
Kyle:
Asks a billion questions and tries to make sure he knows absolutely everything about the issue and how it affects you.
Asks a bunch of people hypothetical questions about it to verify/dispel any and all of his ideas/plans to help.
After learning that you were affected by the disorder, he spent the next night doing research on it.
Spends too much time thinking/worrying about you.
Never asks you over for dinner, fearing what his parents will ask/think.
Has talked to Ike about it (most likely in hypotheticals), and Ike gives you play food whenever you come over.
“I’m just worried about you, and I don’t want anything bad to happen to you.”
Cartman:
Does not understand the idea of not constantly wanting to consume food and asks how it is possible at almost every meal time for a while.
Makes fun of you for it, but only in private and usually feels awful afterwards, even though you tend to take it with a grain of salt. He rarely apologizes, but when he does it’s very heartfelt.
Will threaten to fight anyone who jokes about the disorder in any way shape or form.
Often takes the food you don’t eat off of your plate. When in groups, he uses this as a way to make it seem like you’ve eaten more to avoid questions.
Will offer to share his food with you. You are the only known human who has been offered anything edible by him.
Has whined to his mom about you not eating to which she suggested that he gives you a gentle nudge and tries to get you to eat little by little.
“I don’t get it, but more for me right?” (Usually followed by a sheepish look, a just kidding, and a quick kiss)
Kenny:
Will always share what little food he has with you.
Constantly invites you over for dinner, despite his parents scolding him for bringing over another mouth to feed.
Picks you up a lot and usually makes sure your weight isn’t fluctuating drastically.
Tries to keep you as heathy as possible and insists that you follow the same general routine that he does to keep healthy with little food.
Has serious late night conversations with you about it. Asks why a lot.
Often insists that all women are beautiful, no matter what their weight.
“One day, everything will be perfect. We’ll be married, live in a big mansion, and eat a huge feast every night.”

Portland OkCupid profiles that I have matched with an average rate of 85% copied verbatim (spelling mistakes and all) and complied to create the ultimate dream man.

My Self-Summary
Vegan INTP bike nerd. I consistently test on either side of INFJ/INTJ.  Very into self-improvement, various energy healing modalities, healthy living, escaping the matrix, etc.   I Love to go to festivals. Fire dancing is my favorite hobby but crafting my wearable leather art is my passion. I take care of my body. I am attracted to women that take care of their mind, body and soul. Non-monogamy is a gift that my partner and I have given each other.
I smile and encourage others in passing. I am going through a period of transformation, renewal, and brutal honesty. Finding wisdom in deeper levels and adopting a fresh perspective on my relationship with the world. I savor genuine human connection and I am resourced and ready to face whatever comes in its way.  I have a vision and I need you and your vision. I need the vision to come down and be embodied here in community. I love the transformation and creating something beautiful and lasting.
I am a highly sensitive person, with extreme shifts between introvert and extrovert, who feels emotions on a grand scale and often cannot hide this with masks, barriers, or boundaries. I am a glorious mess with a lot of love to give, digging deep to find that love for myself which will provide the foundation from which I will seek balance in all that I give – to myself and to others.
I just want to let you know my hair is to my butt so if that is not your thing or you judge a book by the cover pass me by.
Let's play together!
What I’m Doing With My Life
Unraveling the mysteries of the universe.  Daydreaming about getting out in the woods for a week.  After ending a long term relationship last year I devoted most of my spare time to internal examination.
I have passed through eleven years of severe mental health issues that have put my life and the pursuit of my dreams and happiness on hold. I submitted to the Western Idea of Medicine – to only soothe the symptoms, and not address the root cause.
I raise happy animals and plants to feed wise and caring people. I am spreading love, happiness, and joy wherever I go. It's who I am and a big part of what I bring to this world. Learning is a hobby as well as my vocation
I'm into tribal dancing. I pray when I dancing. I do ancient dancing sacred to Mayan and Aztec. I can make shoes. I can fix cars. I garden. I'm kind of everything as I age. I see so much wisdom I have and knowledge in the seen and unseen. Being on here discredits my karma and manifestation abilities. I'm not part of sex positive not will I club up for love. I'm very serious I might add. I'm the real deal. I know medicine well. Even Latin. I'm not some rich kid. I'm actually poverty
I am wearing a couple kilts in my pictures. I enjoy wearing them, I am getting more in touch with my Irish heritage. Yes, in two of them, I am also wearing tights. They are tights for men, but still tights. They are comfortable, and nice to wear. More and more men are beginning to realize what woman have known for a very long time. Leggings, tights (and even bodysuits) are really very comfortable.
I am living everyday striving to become my most authentic self by practicing AHO. I am currently in the midst of a revolution. It is beautiful and it is heartbreaking. It is inspiring and it is painful. It is passionate and it is overwhelming. It is full of challenges, ideas, roadblocks, breakthroughs, breakdowns, searching, yearning, learning how to take care of myself for the first time ever, and attempting to find community, my own family or tribe where I can continue this journey surrounded by support and love and possibility and responsibility. The past year has been surreal and fascinating.
I run. I hide. I fall into deep pockets of introspection and isolation. I get foggy and lose track of time, and it is difficult to focus on anything that doesn't feed into this ancient evil of helplessness, hopelessness, agony, and suffering.  I work at festivals like the Oregon Country Fair, Pacific Fire Gathering to name a couple.
What I am Looking For
What I am looking for? First of all, I am not a bigot, or racist, or anything, but I prefer to date within my race. Please. Also, I DO judge you by your profile pic. Shallow?...no. I just am more likely to click on your photo if you are smiling, or you have made it a point to look like you are enjoying yourself. Has nothing to do with how attractive you are. Some pictures....they could double as county jail in-processing pictures. SMILE Fer fuk sakes!!
I find that SOME of the ladies who write that they don't want to see pictures of a mans junk, who are here for a serious intentions, and not here for a quick fling are quite often the same ones who have their camera half way down their shirt, showing me how large their cleavage is, how big their breasts are etc....Frankly, I really don't want to be seeing how big your chest is, anymore than you want to be seeing my junk.
I prefer to look for someone who already has children or willing/interested in adoption, (for that is the ULTIMATE show of love) If you have kids, the younger they are better. Because yes, I want to experience all that being a father brings. Being up 2 hours after I went to sleep to change a diaper, or woo them back to sleep, or holding them after a scary dream. I yearn for the days of showing them how to do things like holding a bat catching a ball, tying their shoes, going to games, and recitals, and yes....even going so far as to play dress up. (Yes, I am cool with that, you should be too).
I believe we transfer energy by who we hang with. So No Burners please. Your weird and high. Not my kind of people.
I’m Really Good At
Getting present via: breath, tapping cortices, lips & tail (energy points), mindfulness, adrenaline, focused effort, etc. Falling apart and putting myself back together again.  Spinning fire for the masses, helping others, loving you, expanding my consciousness and all I set my mind to. I’m REALLY good at talking.
The first things people usually notice about me
Perhaps it's that I emanate a god-like quality of peace, love, and understanding to everyone around me, also my eyes. Bonus points if you find something else to compliment first.
Favorite Books, Movies, Shows, Music, and Food
Science and Sanity by Alfred Korzybski Immediatism by Hakim Bey Mother of the Universe: Visions of the Goddess and Tantric Hymns of Enlightenment by Lex Hixon Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu Theory of Harmony by Arnold Schoenberg
I don’t own a tv.  You shouldn’t either.
Lately I've been listening to Beats Antique, String Cheese Incident, Job To Do, Bassnectar and Blue Lotus. Music is whatever can get me moving, enrich my soul, make me cry, reminds me of something special. Right now I'm listening to a lot of 5 finger death Punch and Tool repetition, polyrhythms, heaviness, swing, bass, texture, sweetness, darkness, contrast, ambience. My own music has been an attempt to reconcile my love of the traditions springing forth from dub reggae and gay disco.
Heathy food is a big part of my life. I am a big juicer and my superfood bullet is the best purchase ever.
Six(teen) Things I Could Never Do Without

I Spend A Lot Of Time Thinking About
How to get the perfect balance in my life between all my conflicting goals and desires. Discovering how to leave a positive impact on humanity, loving life and those in it, entrepreneurial activities (in conscious business), etc.
Where I should ride on my weekend. Road or mountain bike? Probably mountain bike, but which trail and how far am I willing to drive this weekend? Should I camp somewhere?
Doing what I'm here to do, and helping others get on their journey to do the same. I've been feeling more & more tuned in to the fact that we're all perfect the way we are, going through what we're going through (we each have our own reality that may or may not make sense to each person), and could all use reminders to dial in to our divine selves even more in each moment. How can we live & be more authentic in every moment, while turning up the volume on who we really are and what we're really passionate about?
On A Typical Friday Night I am
I am into spontaneity and flow. Making homemade cashew ice "cream".Making rhythmically driven noise (pretty & noisy types). Working on a deep poem. Practicing dancing or doing Danza.
The Most Private Thing I’m Willing To Admit
I tend to Meow a lot. Usually out loud, and sometimes at inappropriate moments.
You Should Message Me If
You appreciate being present and want to discover someone to share memorable moments with. You are truly open to an abundance of possibilities. You've got more passion/drive in life than most.  You choose to live life the way that makes sense to you (rather than following everything as pre-described). You've explored enough about yourself to deeply know you. You actually know the world we live in, and you're still in gratitude to be here in this time! You'd love someone to learn, grow, & live passionately with. You get that logic has its limits. You get the gist of me and my energy from this, even though there's SOOO much more to me (I am a Libra)! ;)
You work to be kind to yourself and others. You can manage your expectations and can trust me to manage mine. You don't hide from your despair and you know joy. You are strong at the broken places.  
If your profile is real and you live near or in Portland. I am very busy and do not have time for games
I will NOT meet expectations of masculine behavior. I am strictly sexually submissive. You will have to pursue me and make me feel desired.
