#and now I realize that wouldn't be it

[rose-tinting]

I just noticed something that made me reflect on my own blogging habits

I’m less likely to like and reblog the art of artists I actually follow

People are more likely to like and reblog art I reblogged from someone else and not my own original art I posted even though they follow me (This is not accusatory I am just noticing it because I do it too)

I’m not a clever man but I’m going to try to wrap my head around this

#also it's actually a confidence booster cause I thought people were ignoring my art because they hate it lol #and now I realize that wouldn't be it #so I am going to try to think about... why don't I reblog from the artists I follow?? Why do I look at it go 'nice' and then keep scrolling? #A mystery... #It's been happening on my neopets blog for a long time #I post art of my neopet #two people who don't follow me like it #I reblog art someone else did of their neopet #followers of the account start reblogging like crazy #it was making me feel like Garbage #And now I'm like... huh! Wait! This is just a thing! #A thing I do as well! #That noted I'm going to try to reblog art I like more from people I follow

my second pass at a sonadow fankid. this time, it's a little more serious than the looney tune that is dawn lol.

this is 3. he was created by tails in an effort to develop the "ultimate defense system."

basically, tails was thinking back on how, during the forces war, eggman was able to conquer the world when sonic and shadow weren't around. and, well, he got a little worked up remembering that! he got mad! yeah--real mad!

so, tails did what all great minds do when they get mad, and he conducted some... let's say... unethical science experiments.

#sonic #sonic the hedgehog #sth #sonadow #sonic oc #3 the hedgehog #scribbles #dawn the creature #maybe if shadow hadn't super destroyed the rest of the black arms he wouldn't have to deal with these #unwanted and previously unknown failsafe instincts that were hardcoded into his dna :/ #cuz wouldn't you know it! super powerful aliens don't like it when they get wiped out and will do anything they can to survive! #which includes INTENSE parental instincts #tails did not account for this. of course #also only now am i realizing 3 :handshake: prism = tails' hubris

no really ALL im saying is if aziraphale was infront of ME and me only and even gave me a smallest amount of attention i would've already confessed right there. wouldn't have taken me 5 minutes let alone 6000 YEARS. nuh uh. especially if he slutted me out while dressed like THAT in 1793 or rizzed me up in 1941. i may be oblivious but im not dumb as fuck and i would've taken THE FUCKING HINT. unlike SOMEONE. ugh if only i was in crowley's place this shitshow wouldn't have taken more than aziraphale's eyelashes to flutter once and i'm done for the wedding is already in full swing oh lookie here a priest appeared completely out of nowhere how odd how mysterious!! anyway we must not waste this opportunity let's just get over w it for completely normal regular reasons YEP!! nothing to see here just a perfectly regular every day wedding !! like come on man atp u gotta blame urself for wasting opportunities like that

#lets all be completely absolutely dead fr rn. if aziraphale smiled at YOU and complimented YOUR stars u would've fallen ass over heels in #love too dont deny it now #just SOME OF US would actually do something abt that shit rather than sigh and yearn and crave and whatever tf that simp ass got up to #im joking btw but COME ON he's soo pretty i wouldn't have been strong enough to wait any time at all #im reading a fic where everyone is under a love spell over aziraphale and fall immediately in love w him the moment they look at him and im #just now realizing that's unironically how i'd act around him if he was real and that's embarrassing as shit #good omens #good omens s2 #azicrow #crowley #aziraphale #ineffable spouses #aziracrow

After the whole Kuwei auction debacle, Kaz suddenly becomes a huge stickler about pairing off during jobs. The Dregs all complain to each other about what a hard-ass he's being, but unless they want to be scrubbing toilets for a month, they'd better stick to their pairs all the way until everyone reconvenes at the end of the job, no matter how in-the-clear or "finished" it may seem. No detours, no dallying, and absolutely no one going on their own. The Dregs don't get what the big deal is, and maybe Kaz doesn't even admit it to himself, but some buried part of him knows why.

#hey not to ruin your day but. i think that kaz would 100% take matthias's death as a personal failure #his whole thing is that he keeps his deals. he promised matthias his freedom and instead he dies during a plan kaz made #he didn't take into account the period of time where matthias was alone in the city crawling w enemies bc the job was supposed to be done #it was supposed to be SAFE and it wasn't. and in his mind if he just planned more and better then it wouldn't have happened #and he just plans more and better now then he can prevent it ever happening again #i think this half-realized sense of failure would haunt kaz for as long as he continues with this life #anyway. lol silly times with six of crows #kaz brekker #matthias helvar #the dregs #six of crows #soc #tgt #soc headcanon #ck spoilers #crooked kingdom spoilers

i just keep thinking about harley getting to know the truth about why peter is alone and finding out why people don't remember him and for a moment thinking he's glad he got to meet him after everything went down and immediately feel guilt and shame because its not fair peter went through so much pain and had to leave everyone he knew behind but,,,, just thinking about meeting each other before and getting to know peter and then completely forget him makes his feel sick

#but harley my baby you did #there was another crying teenager at the funeral that knew exactly what you were feeling in that moment #you just don't remember him #i feel like the world could have ended right there and peter wouldn't have notice #theres a blank space since the moment tony died until weeks after the funeral so can u blame him for not remembering harley? #they met in one of the worst days of each other's life #i just can't stop thinking about them realizing they met before and being absolutely devastated on how close they were to losing each other #because yes they met they talked and acknowledge their bond with tony but they were grieving #they talked for a couple of minutes but they didn't keep in contact they didn't become friends just like that #but now they can't possibly think about not being in each other's life #and to think they were close to lose that without even realizing it.. #ugh im sad don't pay attention to me #once again i do NOT care about the english language so dont bother i know there might be typos #harley keener #parkner #but platonic parkner works just fine too

Opportunist may be our inner negotiator and can, in the right context, be great at talking us out of a pickle, but he also carries so so much of our neurodivergency by being so so tonedeaf in the worst possible situations. I love him.

#I just thought about how each of the voices would handle losing someone in the group #and all I could come up with for Opportunist was just loads of denial followed by a massive m e l t d o w n #Like of the divergent kind #It just made so much sense to me #And now I'm here just realizing why I could relate to his dumbass actions so well #Like obviously he was going to try sweet talking the unforgiving spirit breaking our leg #He hadn't caught onto the “unforgiving” part yet and tbh I wouldn't have either in his shoes #slay the princess #stp #voice of the opportunist

does your boyfriend superman get along with all of your kids? how was his reaction to first meeting them?

He loves them all. Damian tends to question anyone and everyone in his life but he even likes Kal.

The first time he met them, he was an absolute angel. He met them alll at different times so it woulddn't be as intimidating. Dick loves him. Tim thinks hes interesting. Jason thinks it would be cooler for me to date Wonder Woman, I thnk. But hes only joking.

Maybe you can ask my kids, actually!!!! I can only speak from my own perspective and Im sure they sugarcoat it for me sometimes, so maybe you can find out what they think?

@ohgodtheresanotherone @cassmeifyoucan @caint-see-me @onetruewayne @thegreatflyinggrayson @totallytimtastic @future-mr-darcy what do you think of Superman and I dating?

Hi! would you by any chance have tips on how to get a binder when your parents refuse to buy you one? ☹️

That's definitely a sensitive and complex answer, and while I might not know of the best option for your unique situation, there are some ways you can go about this.

If it's a foregone conclusion that you cannot convince them of this, what I used to do is DIY my binder. The ways I primarily did this were:

Option One: Wearing a camisole that was one size smaller than I actually was (so, wearing a small instead of a medium, for instance), then folding it up over my chest. As a disclaimer, this may only work well if you are smaller in the chest

Option Two: Layering two sports bras in my size over each other. Some of the DIY tips I found before I got a traditional binder advised to wear one sports bra in your size, then wear another sports bra backwards in a size smaller. I would advise against this for potential safety reasons, but also because (at least personally), it can be ineffective and a waste of resources.

Some people have also had friends or other family members order their binder for them, but this can be risky, depending on your situation. While I don't know the ins and outs of your specific circumstances, risk management is important to me, so I would recommend this if it is a risk that is acceptable to make.

I understand what it's like to not have access to this resource, so what I will do is advise you against:

Binding with ace bandages (I did this before (multiple times, in fact, because of dysphoria), and believe me, not only did it hurt like hell, but it constricted my body so heavily that I may have done long-term harm)

Wearing a DIY binder (or any kind, for that matter) for longer than your body can handle

Doing DIY in such a way that even mimics binding with ace bandages. This means that your binder shouldn't constrict your ribs, breathing, or range of movement

Here are some general good practices that you should use to guide you for any type of binding, whether traditional or DIY:

When you start binding, only do so in very short sessions to begin with. While binding shouldn't outright hurt, it can be a weird transition while your body is getting used to that new sensation

Minimize heavy lifting or exercise while binding. If it is unavoidable, drink plenty of water and take plenty of breaks

Stretch after binding

Don't bind while sick or have inflammation in your lungs or chest

If you DIY, treat your binder like it is a traditional binder. Don't make the mistake of assuming you don't need to listen to your body because you aren't using a "traditional" binding method

Ultimately, listen to your body. If it is telling you that it needs a break, honour that. Your body isn't punishing you, it is trying to keep you (and it) safe, even if it doesn't feel like it

In the end, this isn't perfect. Sometimes, parents do come around, even in their own ways, even if little by little, they come around. When I first came out officially around 2016, I was convinced that my transition would be completely forbade by my family; I concealed a lot of it in the worst instances of this. However, now, I think most of my family has come through their own journey with the understanding of the reality of what and who I am. I tell you this, anon, because I want you to know that this, too , shall pass. You can make it. I know this might be devastating to you, and believe me, I know what that's like. But it won't be forever. These bridges aren't burnt forever, and I hope you can find your happiness and contentment wherever it may be.

#ask #anon #trans #transgender #lgbt #lgbtq #ftm #nonbinary #long post #if anybody has other tips or ideas then feel free to speak up #this is what i did before officially binding and what i have seen other trans people do in lieu of getting a 'real' binder #it did suck when i was coming out because i don't think my family had any idea how *their* hang-ups with... me as a person... affected me #and i think a lot of people get their preconceived notions or headcanons of you stuck in their head to the point that it is Reality #i think part of why my dad started actually *trying* to accept me was him realizing that i was actively hiding things from him... #...like he loves me and our relationship is fine now but i'm not going to pretend like he didn't massively blunder after i came out #and if it turns out that your parents don't ever come around (gd forbid) then you aren't obligated to keep them #you don't choose your parents but you can choose your family i think #i always always hope that parents come around to their child/ren and the reality of who they are but i recognize how messy it all is #anon i wouldn't blame you one bit if you feel many complex or 'negative' emotions toward them #i have many complex feelings about this and that's my own baggage. i hope i haven't put words into your mouth or assumed anything too much #i am sending you best wishes and care. this too shall pass💛

thinking about the fact that if Neil had died in Baltimore, literally none of Andrew's family would even know he was broken as much as he was by it. Like they saw him choke Kevin, but even after Baltimore, Nicky assumed it was just a fling.

#Like Bee and Renee might have the most knowledge #but how likely is it that Andrew would just shut them out anyways after that? #I think Wymack. Kevin and. in fact. Aaron would have SOME idea #but like I'm just saying #most of them had that Baltimore reunion to sorta solidify how important Neil was to Andrew #and if he'd died they wouldn't have that #all they'd have is Andrew choking Kevin out after the riot #I think Aaron had a good idea of it BECAUSE of the Baltimore reunion #which is why he was able to so quickly realize that he could trade Neil for Katelyn #and I think Kevin and obviously wymack knew before that #but still. #without that reunion scene it's just Andrew having adopted another stray that he'd now failed to protect and I'm just #listen..... I read another MC death/canon divergence fic and then just here I am #thinking about the fact that Andrew would be 100% wrecked by that and almost no one would even know exactly how messed up he is about it #it's fine I'm fine #aftg #Andrew Minyard #Neil Josten #Andreil
