so the good place is widely lauded on this site for its takes on morality and capitalism, which i totally agree with
but i think it should get more recognition for the line "all humans are aware of death. so we're all a little bit sad all the time. that's just the deal. we don't get offered any better ones. and if you try and ignore your sadness, it just ends up leaking out of you anyway. i've been there, and everybody's been there. so don't fight it. in the words of a very wise bed bath and beyond employee i once knew - go ahead and cry all you want. but you're gonna have to pay for that toilet plunger."

I think above all the worst misconception about a naruto character has to be a 31 year old obito still being in love with 14 year old rin. Not only does this go against obito's whole character past the third shinobi war but it's plainly disgusting that people think this about a middle aged man. I'm telling you now that rin was not the sole reason for Obito's hatred for the shinobi world she was just the catalyst for him agreeing to madara's plan, resulting in everything that happened.
It's just annoying to see this misconception even when within the manga itself obito has stated he isnt in love with rin anymore in his adulthood as he refers to his love of her in the past tense. It's just painful to see people forget that rin was his best friend, not just his crush. She was the first person in his life to introduce him to friendship and to truly believe in his abilities and dreams. They were eachothers closest friend within life, even if rin didn't reciprocate obito's feelings she still loved him and cherished him.
I see comments about obito being the ultimate simp or some shit like that and its infuriating to see this shit about such a complex character like obito, he's only wittled down to some guy in love who apparently caused a war only for her or kakashi's friend.

Chu Wanning: You are driving a car and all of a sudden, there is an elderly woman and a young child crossing the road. What do you hit?
Mo Ran: (in deep thought)
Mo Ran: The elderly, because she already had her fill of life but the young child has barely experienced life yet so it would be a shame if he got killed.
Chu Wanning: …
Mo Ran: Or you can hit them both if you want to be a little silly
Chu Wanning: The BRAKES, Mo Weiyu. YOU HIT THE BRAKES.

I just accidentally casually came out to my mum. Coolcoolcool. I mean, it was fine. But, wow, was I weird about telling her before now. Maybe it was because I’m older and settled and coming out didn’t seem important? Hmm.

Sometimes I ponder the idea of going back to a single blog, like,, not in the sense of leaving my currently active multi behind, or Gil behind, but like, that craving of having a new muse, that has their own space,, it feel like I haven't have that in some time already (and to those who know me, it's nothing unusual to find 844738382 blogs following u which are all mine OTJRPRJTRK)

I don’t know man. I feel like because Argyle is so genuine and loves being there for other people he often forgets to take care of himself. He is the type of person who will go out of his way to make someone feel included and taken care of but I don’t think a lot of people do that for him. Argyle is human after all. He has moments of self doubt and anxiety. He has moments where he feels like he isn’t good enough.
That’s why I think Jonathan and him are such a good pair. He can recognize when Argyle is giving too much of himself. When Argyle does something for him he tries to do something in return. When Argyle lets him vent he extends the offer to talk over anything with him. When Argyle started to teach him to skate he teaches him a few things about photography. It’s a mutual give and take.
I think Jonathan is the first person in his life to really take care of him. To remind Argyle he is allowed to have bad days. And that he has someone there to support him in the way he supports everyone else. Most importantly to remind him he can rest. To let someone else do something for him.
The first time Jonathan brings it up a few months into their friendship it’s the first time Jonathan sees Argyle get emotional. He gets quiet and misty eyed. Argyle just pulls him in for a hug and mutters a quiet thanks man. Jonathan hugs him back and Argyle relaxes more. He learns eventually that the Byers give the best hugs. And that they are a perfect cure for just about anything.
