i saw this tiktok where someone was basically bashing a “standard american” barista for forcing small talk bc they only want tips, but i do something similar (but not forced) and it’s not for tips it’s bc i genuinely like talking to people 😔😔

still not over the time i told a recent friend (now recent bf) i liked his shirt (pale blue-grey polo w narrow white horizontal stripes, compliments his fluffy light brown hair + hazel eyes) and several lunch walks later he said he can’t remember the last time someone complimented him on his outfit. i think my heart audibly cracked
#where to even start with this like.#HE LOOKS GOOD. FREQUENTLY.#he matches the accent colors of his band tees to his pants and/or shoes. my fave combo rn is#the black The Who tee (white and red lettering on both sides) + cream shorts + black sneakers w red accents#he does the accent matching thing subconsciously btw. i pointed out ''your sneaks match the shirt that's cool'' he was like ''oh they do''#no one ever said anything huh#my understanding is dudes are hesitant to compliment other dudes bc they fear being called gay for it. classic homophobia making life worse#first and foremost for gay ppl but also for the straights#and women are hesitant to compliment dudes bc they worry he'll take it as flirting. classic heteronormative#''women and men can't be just friends'' + ''she asked for it'' garbage making life worse first and foremost for women but also for men#and yeah also all genders of trans and/or enby folks may be hesitant to compliment guys bc they fear being hatecrimed. can ya blame em??#look at the fucking statistics#on the one hand not being constantly judged for their presentation is a win for men. i love the compliments but it's also unnerving how#ready ppl are to appraise my appearance#that said it sucks that men getting pos attention for looking nice on the daily is so rare#all that suit hype yet no love for subtle accent matching. sweet kicks. a good sturdy jacket. FLANNELS#also would it kill us to tell guys their facial hair looks good? multiple guys ive dated have asked my opinion on their facial hair choices#before stating what their preference is. i'd get asking out of curiosity or wanting to know how it affects the kissing texture#but dude. man. my guy. people who love you will kiss you anyway even if it's a lil fuzzier than they prefer.#what's important is you like it#idk how to condense all this into occasional normal compliments anymore i just tell#bunny boy#his hair is pretty and his taste in band Ts fucks and spend 30 seconds curling and uncurling his fingers bc his hands are nice#sigh#snowswords

thinking abt....🛍️
#entirely random thought i felt like sharing#when im speedier/better at drawing and writing this will become more apparent but#i have REALLY DETAILED fashion hcs for all the holic characters#built off of their prior fits and stuff#and patterns and prints they're associated with and trying to apply them to casual wear#one of my fav silhouettes is haori + crop top + shorts#its so breezy and fancy while being kinda laid back still#i forgot where i was going with this but half the time i picture#🐣 in my head hes wearing coords like that#like#still wearing kimono type garments for casual faffing around daily activities but layered with like y2k and casuals#stuff that shows off that the main holic cast have legs for days tends to be fun to imagjne coords wise#and stuff that reflects yuukos y2k glamour type fits when she goes out to check client situations#haori get lots of compliments when you wear them as part of a casual look i think cause ppl expect 'kimono jackets' to be super flimsy#i have like one non japanese kimono jacket type thing and its super floaty and detailed and silky hed wear tf out of that#i have fashion brain so everything comes down to fashion for me even when im coming up with headcanons and fic ideas#im also a big haori enjoyer they are easy to get hold of and make a big impression while being casually wearable outside of jp#but yeah i like to imagine 🐣 would wear lots of haori + y2k crop + jeans or shorts#or on the other side stuff that reflects rou era like long dresses or pleated maxi pants or silky long sleeve stuff#plus because hes clamps silly little dress up doll you can just go insane w him its not like its not canon or anything#i had an art concept ages ago i wanna draw still where the golden trio switch aesthetics so 🌻 is in sorta retro chill monochrome casuals#🏹 is in kinda y2k and haori style stuff and 🐣 is in gothic lolita#🌻s mix of like soft casuals and gothic lolita is SO GOOD shes the girl of all time#anyway u cant say 🐣🌻 wouldnt share and trade clothes and you cant say 🐣 wouldnt inherit at least 1 old school moi meme moitie piece#i like the idea that 🐣🌻 can freely share clothes cause they have a similar body shape and size but 🏹 is a bit too tall and a bit buffer#but then that also means 🐣 can wear 🏹 clothes AHAHAHA my master plan#one of my actual irl 'love languages' when it comes to my friends is aspiring to become the friend with the infinitely lendable closet#like out of a chick flick or something#characters sharing clothes or switching aesthetics platonically or romantically is very appealing to me#tldr FASHION BRAIN FULL!!!!! FASHION BRAIN FULL!!!

Hey, I saw you wanted ppl to request some drabbles, and if that was something you still wanted, how about yn works in retail, but in a store that has the only brand of mac and cheese yelena likes, so finding out its sold out, but not wanting to see this attractive woman sad, yn asks for her details so she can call when they get some in. Which in turn she keeps the whole stock that comes in and calls yelena, and yelena wanting to thank her by asking her out. Bonus for a Fanny cameo? is this okay?
Drabble || Just For You
Pairing: Yelena Belova x Reader (Platonic)
Summary: When a new customer quickly becomes a regular to buying out as many boxes of the store's Mac n Cheese has you intrigued so when the store has none left, the blonde is disappointed she'll miss out on her favourite snack, until you assure her that next stock is all hers.
Fluff
Warnings: None, this isn't corrected or proof read. | 1K
AC: I love this so much!! Thank you for sending it!! I hope you enjoy this x
You saw the disappointment on her face as she made her way towards you at the check-out. You greeted her with a soft smile when she placed her items down.
"Hi, how are you today?" you asked as you grabbed one of the cans of dog food and scanned it. The woman sighed, "I see you're out of Mac n cheese" she replied.
"Yeah, unfortunately we sold the last few boxes in the lunch rush" you said, scanning her next item and placing it into a paper bag for her. The blonde comes in every few weeks and likes to buy at least eight boxes of Mac n cheese, it was very clear it was one of her favourite meals and the sadness on her face told you she was really looking forward to ending her day with a bowl of her favourite food.
"But, hey, I tell you what. I've seen you in here a few times so why don't you leave your name and number and when our stock delivery arrives in a few days I'll make sure you're the first person to get their hands on it" you added.
The green eyed woman's face lit up, she smiled, "You'd do that? for me?" she said, her Russian accent coming in thick.
"Of course. You're like the only person I have ever seen that buys more than two boxes of it" you replied making the two of you to chuckle before you handed her a piece of scrap paper and a pen. She wrote down her details while you scanned the rest of her items.
"That'll be $15.68" you smiled once more as she handed you back the paper and pen, "Yelena" you read, looking up at her.
"Y/n" she replied, looking at your name badge, you chuckled, "It's finally nice to put a name to such a beautiful face" you said. Your compliment took Yelena back for a moment, "well, it's not every day a beautiful check out worker wants to take my name and number" she replied, her cheeks slightly red. She paid for her items and thanked you for being so kind.
----
"Y/n, could you please more the new stock so it's ready for stacking" your manager asked just as you finished up checking out the last customer in your line. "Sure, I just need a quick toilet break first" you replied before making your way to the employee bathroom.
You pulled out the piece of paper Yelena wrote her name and number down on and began to punch in her number into your phone. It rang a few times before you were greeted with her thick Russian accent.
"Yelena speaking" she answered.
"Hi, Yelena, it's Y/n. We got our stock in today and I am about to get it ready for stacking. If you're free, did you want to come down and pick up the boxes?"
"Hey, of course! Fanny and I are just on our daily walk, we'll be there in 10 minutes or so"
"Sounds awesome, please tell me Fanny is your dog" you chuckled.
"What else would I be walking?" Yelena replied, "we'll see you soon" she added before hanging up.
You had just finished up stacking a product when you saw Yelena walking towards you, "You made it" you smiled, unsure why you even made that comment. She smiled softly, "yeah, you should've seen the crap I had to put up with before walking through the door" she chuckled, making you blush.
"You must be pretty hungry then" you replied, "I've saved you a few boxes, come with me" you added. Yelena couldn't help but noticed the newly stocked section of Mac n cheese that reminded her how excited she was to finally get her hands on her favourite snack. You led her into the backroom, the manger was on lunch so you knew you were safe.
"So, I'm not sure if you have a car or anything but by box, I mean I saved you a whole crate" you turned on your heels, smiling at the blonde. Yelena's eyes widened, "you saved me a whole crate?" she asked, just to be sure.
"Yeah! I may or may not have noticed how much you like this brand and considering we are the one of the only stores that sell it in the city, I thought why not give you enough to keep you going! Oh, and you'd be saving money" you replied excitingly.
Yelena's smile only grew bigger, "I guess I'll have to call my sister, I don't think Fanny will approve of pulling this bad boy home" she replied with a chuckle.
----
A few days had past and you were just about to clock out, serving the last customer in your checkout when Yelena had walked in. "I didn't think I'd see you back here so soon" you greeted her with a smile as you began to tidy up your check out.
Yelena chuckled, "don't worry, I'm not here for more Mac n cheese" she replied.
"I'm glad! I would be a little concerned if you were! What can I help you with?" You asked.
"Are you busy after your shift?" she asked. You shook your head, "nope, just going home and hitting the gym a little later" you replied.
"How do you feel about skipping gym and maybe having dinner with me?" Yelena asked. You paused and looked up at her, smiling softly, "I've skipped the gym for the last three days, what's another day going to do?" you replied, causing Yelena to smile.
"Great! I'll let you finish up and I'll meet you outside with Fanny" she spoke before slowly walking towards the entrance.
Once you had finished tidying up and gathering your things from your locker, you met Yelena outside where she waited with her dog, Fanny, sitting by her feet. The dog wagged her tail as she greeted you, "she's adorable! what's her name again?" you asked, giving the pup at good pat.
"Fanny" Yelena replied, you didn't question the slightly odd name choice. "How do you feel about loaded hot dogs and a walk through the park?" Yelena asked.
"This is going to sound a little odd but I have been craving one of them all day!" you smiled.

Title : Genshin characters as highschool students.
Note : This will probably mostly relate to central asian students. Also, most of the interactions are platonic :) Characters that look older will be teachers cuz it's strange for me to imagine them as students😥
Tags : crack, fluff(?), headcanons.
Warnings : mentions of vaping, insulting, alcohol.
Characters : Xiao, Scaramouche, Childe, Zhongli, Venti, Kazuha.
Xiao is the type of student that follows the uniform rules strictly, a well-ironed shirt, a tie neatly sitting on top, with a good-looking blazer. Has good grades, kinda one of those lonely mysterious excellent students who look very pretty while literally putting no effort😭.
We have this thing where starting from 6 or 7th classes will have to go out patrolling on break time. Basically to watch and scold students if they run, misbehave or don't follow the dress code. So I imagine Xiao taking the patrol very seriously, like man would lecture you for a solid 10 minutes when you slightly quickened your pace in the halls💀. I swear, he would enjoy patrolling so much, he would continue to do it even when it's the other classes turn.
Scaramouche is the type of student who has beef with the whole school. With this behavior he would not survive our schools, man would get slandered on daily basis😰. You know, we have this type of insta acc's where you can send anonymous letters inside of your school, like confess to a crush from the other class, right? Scaramouche would literally get hate letters all of the time. Every second post on this account would be about him☠. Either ppl insulting the shit out of him, or defending him with their life, with his pretty privilege I think he would have at least some amount of fans.
In my opinion, scaramouche is those type of people who tried vaping once, didn't like it and started hating and dissing everyone around him who vapes.
Venti is the student who spends his break time in the toilets, vaping with his friends, maybe even drinking. Remembering there was a case in my school where some students hid some beer behind the toilet walls😶. Venti would try to do something like that too, for sure. Also I think he would be very interested in the drama around, involving himself in some conflicts accidentally.
Kazuha is the type of student who vapes, but hides it surprisingly well, the only person knowing being Venti. Generally has a good reputation in school, being a chill student that can get along with literally anyone. Could be one of the Scaramouche defenders, or could be not informed on the drama at all. The one who you always see in the art classroom, hanging out there with the art teacher, talking with your class about the meaning of life, philosophy, and all those other artsy things.
Childe is the PE teacher that never, and I mean NEVER, spares you. You have your PE uniform? Run 10 circles on the 500 metre length. Oh, you don't have your PE uniform? Do 500 squads in the uncomfortable school uniform and then don't have the permission to sit on any benches, you don't deserve them. He's the type of teacher who has the most useless lessons in school, but acts like they are the most important ones. Some ppl simp for him, and you can see why, but you still think it's kind of sus how he acts when his students compliment him🤨.
Zhongli is the sweet and kind history teacher, who puts a lot of effort in your studying and let's you draw things and write stories on your tests if you've done them early😭. Actually appreciates all of the goofy little drawings and stories and thinks of them as the warm memories. Also the one who always greets you whenever you see each other while passing, but somehow doesn't remember your name and always misses it😐.
I think I'll this one on here, let me know if should make a part 2!! This was very fun, and I honestly didn't expect to write that much😶.

Haikyuu x Extrovert!reader
requested, extroverted reader, dating fluff, kind of went on with kita's bc Shinsuke Kita is near and dear to my heart recently
[ reader x ] : tsukishima. bokuto. kita
Tumblr media
Tsukishima
this is one of the situations where the extrovert adopts the introvert
you found him scary at first with his height being so tall and his mean resting face
but when you noticed the artist of the music he listened to was also a favorite of yours, you had to approach him
and he’s startled at first, because you never really spoke to him before (except for that time you asked him to reach for your eraser that fell in front of his seat).
so then, now you go to school, glad to have found someone with good music taste, looking forward to having chats about the new album and your favorite tracks
before you know it, you’re both catching feelings for each other
and he surprises you with tickets to the concert which you both thoroughly enjoyed
it wasn’t until the end of the concert, the ride home, when you finally ask “So, was it a date?”
“Of course it was.” He confirms.
No one would’ve guessed that you’d end up together
however, if anyone messed with one of you, the other would definitely fight back
Tsukki gets a little possessive when a random stranger walks up to you and starts flirting
practically gives them the death stare while hugging from behind you
but turns out, they weren't flirting nor a random stranger. They were just a childhood friend of yours lol
you're always telling him to 'be nice' or 'play nice' to people you meet
and he listens to you always ofc you got him wrapped around your finger
Tumblr media
Bokuto
two very energetic energies
so ppl weren’t surprised when they found out you two were dating
in fact, it happened very fast (although, Bokuto was very shy of you bc of how pretty you were)
he kept asking Akaashi to ask you abt stuff like “what's your favorite color?” “what’s your type?”
to the point where you thought Akaashi was the one with the crush 💀
but then Akaashi’s had enough of his pestering and ends up blurting out “Bokuto wants to know.” and Bokuto’s whining his best friend’s name for exposing him
but Akaashi knows Bokuto will thank him later for it
bc now you’re walking with hands held together, sharing lunches, and matching bracelets
best believe your showing off your bf’s athletic skills to every person you meet
Bokuto's huffing with pride like ‘yes i am he. i am the boyfriend.’ with his arm wrapped around yoh
you both light up every room you walk into
however, when you fight, it's like the end of the world; it's a good thing your friends are always there to help y'all lol
not that you both need much help bc somehow you can't stay mad at each other for too long
the moment he sees you, a bright smile adorns his face while you leap into his arms
loves to spin you in the air a lot lmao
also complimenting each other is a daily thing
literal relationship goals
Tumblr media
Kita
admired you from afar at first
you were so bubbly and made friends everywhere you went
except for Kita who you secretly admired (bc gosh, he was a fine man. It was hard for you to approach him at first.)
so Kita’s wondering what he might’ve done to see you swivel around when you noticed him walking toward your direction in the hallway,
or the time you spun your head away during a volleyball match when he catches you staring
Kita just wants to be friends aw 🥺
he thinks you dislike him until you march up after a successful game, the adrenaline of victory and pride for your school’s team rushing through you, and finally confess (well, not really but Kita was clever enough to understand the situation)
blubbering like "congrats Kita-san! I knew you guys could do it! I always believed since you were the captain. Andyou'rejustsocoolandgoodlookingandathleticandgoodateverything" and so on
The rest of his teammates are quietly snickering and patting him on the back, but he's stagnant, in place, bewildered by your sudden interaction and compliments.
that’s when he realizes that maybe he's thought of you wrongly this whole time
definitely feels guilty about judging you that way before even getting a chance to properly speak to you
He compliments you back and pink dust forms on your cheeks.
"Are you taken by any chance?" you immediately regret the words once they left your mouth.
"No, no. I'm not. You?" When you shake your head, he smiles and that's how you both started dating
now he feels a sense of pride when you march into a room calling his name first, eyes going to him first
despite being the social butterfly you are, you spend most of your time by his side
very different from how you first interacted and he's so glad at how it all turned out
taglist 。⋆。˚ ʚïɞ ˚。⋆。

My self concept is literally so perfect. It's top tier . People are jealous of the fact that i have thee perfect self concept. Bitches be "working on their self concept" when i naturally have good self concept . Y'all would kill for a perfect mindset like mine . I love everything about myself. I'm so confident in everything. I love how powerful my mind is . Everything always goes my way because I'm the exception. I get special treatment and privileges just because I'm me . It girl should be my middle name cuz when ppl hear the phrase "it girl" they immediately think of me . I'm one of a kind . I'm successful in everything and anything i do . Im always showered with compliments daily .I'm literally an angel . I'm so gorgeous people break their neck just to see a glimpse of me . I'm perfect. I'm the creator of my reality.

☆ punch out sexuality headcanons ☆
im running out of funny things to say help me, also tw for mentions of homophobia & transphobia
Glass Joe
- aromantic asexual (sex neutral, romance positive) + trans, he/him
- Just because hes ace doesnt mean he doesnt make inappropriate jokes on a daily basis, if there was a ranking of who made the most sexual jokes he'd be at the top
- when he came out as trans to his parents they were suprisingly supportive even though they didnt understand much, it just went like: "mom, dad, im a boy and if you dont like that too bad" "we dont care as long as you dont murder anyone" And they were generally chill with him
- when he first binded he used bandages & cloth instead of a actual binder (before he came out) and due to that he almost wasnt able to get top surgery
- has faked a lot of crushes to fit in during his childhood, ended up dating 3-5 people he didnt even like
- thought his gender envy was attraction until he just asked himself "do i wanna be them or be with them" And boom, gender confusion
- fell down the "im not like other girls!" to "im not a girl." pipeline
Von Kaiser
- demiromantic, demisexual + bi with a preference for men, he/they
- when he didnt know the demi labels he just saw himself as a picky dater, when he saw the demi labels he was like "Wait thats me" And pretty much ascended on the spot
- thought everyone just liked both men & women until he said it out loud and got met with pure shock
- his first crush was a famous model he saw in a fashion magazine, also slipping down the "do i wanna be them or be with them" pipeline
- his dad wasnt really supportive but became a bit more open minded once he realized that his hatred distanced himself from his son even more
Disco Kid
- nonbinary,gay, he/she
- okay with both feminine & masculine terms
- somebody tried to call him "princess" to insult him when he was little, instead he took it as a compliment and saw them as a friend, still in contact with said person & theyre besties now, the princess thing has become a nickname for him
- when he first came out his parents were like "the closet was wide open" and were not suprised at all, they saw it coming 1000 miles away as soon as he started it out with the "i have to say something important"
- started doing make up & playing around with dresses thanks to a close friend of his (the childhood friend) , when he first put on a dress he was like "i think i realized something"
King Hippo
- #1 label hater + all pronouns
- if he were to use labels, he would count as gender apathetic and pan oriented aroace
- labels are for losers to him
- not out but his parents know that he doesnt give a shit about labels, they first found out when he didnt care about being called "queen" and liked it, they have no problem with it
Piston Hondo
- pan, cis (?) + he/him but likes to refer to himself with feminine pronouns in japanese
- not out to his parents but dropping hints, theyre struggling to pick up on it and hes going mad over it
- going through some major gender questioning™
- playing around with dresses & femininity and enjoying it
Great Tiger
- polysexual (prefs are enbies, men & genderqueer ppl), genderqueer + all pronouns
- closeted it but trying to make it clear hes not straight,its just flying over his parents head like "oh me oh my our son is sure close with his friends!! Such close bros"
- likes dresses not only for spinning skirts but also how comfy they are
Bear Hugger
- gay, bear (ITS IN THE NAME. COME ON THE CLOSET IS GLASS), trans + he/him but ok with they/them
- when he first came out there was a lot of crying, not in the "i wont accept this wahh" way but more in the "i cant believe you trusted me enough to tell me this" way
- didnt know he was trans until he said "yeah i like being called son, yeah i like being called manly, im a girl though" out loud and he was like "wait a minute"
- has had 2-3 boyfriends during his teen years and is still in touch with them since the break ups were done without any harsh feelings & grudges, hes the only person that can see his exes all chatting together and not die of a heart attack on the spot
Don Flamenco
- gay, trans + he/they
- got called gay way before he knew it since he kept calling his male friends handsome often, always passed it off like "cant a man call his friend handsome?"
- the only feminine terms he will accept is queen and aunt, refer to him as anything other than that and he will punch you to orbit
- cut off contact with his parents since they didnt accept him & kicked him out, the only person who took him in was his aunt, she helped him get t & bind safely before he got top surgery
Aran Ryan
- genderfluid, pomosexual + all pronouns
- label hater but still uses them because why not
- came out in the most casual way possible, was just chilling on the couch with his dad and he just said "i kinda like being called miss sometimes" from boredom just to see dad go "huh??"
- sometimes does drag when he feels fem
Soda Popinski
- gay, cis + he/him
- Rocky dating history, most break-ups of his were really sad since it was either forced by family members or over arguments
- exes with bald bull but they still get along & dont care about their past, they just had better platonic connection and decided together
- out but not, making it clear hes a bit fruity but not too much for it to snowball into "the rumour come out: does soda popinski is gay?"
Bald Bull
- Boyflux, gay + he/they
- flamboyantly gay and cannot hide it no matter how much he tries, the closet is not even present, show him someone he has a crush on and you'll hear the gayest squeal in your life before he evaporates into thin air and holds you at gunpoint
- has the Don Flamenco issue going for him, compliments his male friends and calls them handsome wayyy too often, this time its 99% more obvious
- either really bitter with his exes or close friends, no inbetween, if you tell him "yeah your exes asked about you, theyre there" theres a 50% chance its gonna have his soul physically exit him and another 50% chance hes gonna walk right over to them and say hi
- not out publicly since it would cause a shitstorm, only out to a few people he trusts, has issues trusting people to not say his secrets since a close friend of his outed him during his teen years
Super Macho Man
- bi (slight pref for women), cis + he/she
- didnt really come out, he just showed up to his parents door with his (now ex) bf and was like "heyy say hi to my boyfriend" and everyone just kinda accepted it
- thought the attraction to men was envy for a long time until he learned the fact that wanting to be lifted into the arms of a man and making out with said man is not really straight
Mr Sandman
- gendervoid, demiromantic, acespec, pan + all pronouns
- feels like he should be more masculine but cant bring himself to it,he cant force his behavior to act in a way that doesnt fit him
- out and about, hes not repressing himself for anyone

ik this is maybe an unpopular opinion but seven of nine is EASILY the most autistic coded star trek character. there is no contest. it's literally a thing across multiple seasons that she takes classes trying to learn how to socialise. she observes the behaviour of others and takes extensive notes so she can learn to mimic them. she practices her facial expressions in the mirror. she often expresses that socialising was easier when she was part of a vast hive mind (although she doesn't want to return to said hive mind) because she would directly know ppl's thoughts instead of having to infer them through complex social cues and body language. loves "perfection", order and organisation. constantly missing social cues leading to ensuing misunderstandings. human but doesn't fit in with the other humans at all. strict daily routine. eats the same nutritional supplements all the time. treats every social interaction as a game to be won or a puzzle to be solved. monotone voice. often scares men (who would otherwise be attracted to her) with her bluntness and pragmatism. i could go on forever. she is the whole damn diagnostic criteria. her raads-r score would be like. 300 or something. and i say all of this as an autistic person meaning it as a high compliment. she is my favourite and i love her so fucking much

Moving from SC to NC and realizing I was deadass basically speaking a whole ‘nother language was a bit much for me to comprehend at nine years old LMFAO
The amount of “huh?”s and “what does that mean?” I heard daily was shocking because to me, I was speaking clear English but people would be quick to correct me and point out differences. Sometimes it was a compliment, other times it was just weird cause people assumed I was either from New Orleans or I was “exotic” and from the Caribbean. ignorant ass comments like that was a regular around yt people and people from up north.
Even when I was living in SC (Myrtle beach specifically), I was still getting corrected but mostly by yt ppl. Thinking about it now, I didn’t notice that it was actually racist as hell. Keep in mind I was between the ages of 4-7 through these times and they once put me in a speech class for disabled children along with like three foreign kids because of my pronunciation and grammar. They deemed me and those children far behind and illiterate because we spoke in our original dialect. By this time it was illegal for teachers to beat children but I’d still use the term “beat the geechee out of you” because that’s basically what they tried to do to me LMFAO. Didn’t work so well because I came up with the “idea” to speak “proper” at school and only use my dialect at home, the first time I ever code switched.
fast back forward to years later after moving to NC, I had code switched so much that I forgot A LOT of my original dialect and really only had my accent left. It was to the point where when we went back to the country to visit family, I could barely understand by grandparents anymore and had to relearn a lot of things 🥲

Talking about how narc abuse is just as same as any other abuse to victims is like saying "not all men" to women who get harassed and put down by men on the daily. You know NOTHING about narc abuse, and if you do you're an apologist anyways. Narcissists have inherently abusive traits. If your little self esteem can't take that when no one even said "all narcissists are abusers" (which I'm sure ppl will start saying soon, and you all deserve it atp).
It's narcisstic abuse, fix your insecurities before you project. No one said shit about your disorder. So insecure.
they are not correlated in the slightest. men are not an oppressed group while pwNPD are; it is a neurodivergent, trauma based disorder. all we are trying to do is explain you people have a false perception of our disorder… that’s literally it. i don’t understand what’s so hard to get about that. we explain it a thousand times over and you guys still don’t understand.
and yeah, i know nothing about narc abuse because it isn’t a real term, it is demonizing a disorder that has nothing to do with abusive tendencies. the “abusive tendencies” people always pull out are lack of empathy and interpersonally explorative but it’s because y’all don’t understand what that means. the former is not a bad thing, many people with autism and childhood PTSD lack empathy as well, we aren’t the only ones. the latter is just fishing for compliments for an ego boost, not being manipulative.
there are 250-ish ways of having NPD and even more for NPDt. some people don’t have any of these “abusive tendencies” in the slightest but still have NPD. and yes… people say “all narcissists are abusers” all the fucking time. like i genuinely see it that comment all the time on here, tiktok, and instagram. don’t say y’all don’t say it when y’all do.
also, yes, i’m very insecure!!! it’s almost as if that’s a key fucking part of the disorder that you claim to know everything about!!! it’s almost as if “disordered sense of ego” disorders your sense of ego!!!
you say i know nothing but you are the one that knows nothing. because you don’t know anything other than what you’ve read on your little unreliable blogs and stupid newsletters. those aren’t reliable, especially if they don’t use sources that actually mean shit.
you need to describe the abuse, not the abuser. by blaming it on their “disorder” (that they probably don’t even have given y’all armchair diagnose anyone who is slightly manipulative as NPD), you are taking the blame away from them and giving them an out.

confident about confidence & not confident that makes sense.
*real Quick. This (G)entry might make ur head spin. Could also Title : what you think no one knew. U tried it.
I wont ask for a raise of hands. Everyone deals with it. There’s no solution, no answer. Experience & being a dumbass——>Guidance and wisdom. There are many reasons I bring up confidence. One, it’s one of those words that’s not a word …it is a State of being. you just kind of don’t know where to place it b/c well, you’re not confident of where to land w/ it and even if you were you’d be like just leave it bc i don’t have time for this. to debate confidence v confidence? again Dog-ear the page or burn it bc im not even confident about THAT. Then once and only if it’s (the whole world of confidence) placed hyper-questioning kicks in: is that where it should be? Then… be and stay? Also am I losing it? I’m not confident about that but maybe. That’s always on the agenda you never agreed to and I AM confident about that i think.
If there is one constant in My Life it’s been My back n forth relationship with confidence. I have this thought daily, truly. I’ll say to myself ok yea I’m cute…
[insert any other compliment you give yourself or even receive by others only b/c you’re actually insecure— and just like the fact you’re still sick from being healthy (Me) it doesn’t make sense so bc it doesn’t make sense just I guess get over it and carry on]
…but R u cute enough to actually be happy and okay about that or do you want to change something? Take another chiseled mirror picture flexing? And u never went to a trainer? Feel better now? But I only got 3 likes. So idk.
Er No i think I’ve figured it out. Just dont eat. Exercise 2-4 hrs a day. Weights. 100 Push-up’s. 100 Calf raises. Repeat. Twice a Day if ya can. Anything to find confidence in the material. Find Pride. Only Pride you’re good at tho is the lgbtq spectrum and recently are glad it’s a spectrum since u have no idea where you fall into it anymore bc you’re not confident and it’s completely irrelevant b/c I can live between the letters+ the rest of my Life— that’s fine. Any of which could be foreshadowing of any category of Illness to come. But yea Now that you’re sick…you gotta trash your other Pride AGAIN b/c you can’t do anything without help.
10, 9, 8…my Tourette’s R throttled.
Then lately, aka the past 2 years—I can make the cute comment, i like my sun freckles and My eyes. My baby hairs when i wear a hat backwards. My smile. Just dont smile where you look fat or have a dbl chin bc you worked too hard to get all that weight off and how would that look if you just got fat again? Pitiful and weak and a fraud. Going back on your word b/c anything I declare Online is binding. So just Show some of your body in pics but not all so people dont think youre trying NOT to be totally honest with internet fame but so you still look confident. but as for doing anything about it…physically can’t now b/c trying to get better is not a good idea bc of POTS and Pppunishment for trying to be in shape but oh when u tried to be in shape never was not-not punishment. Then what…back to no confidence. Felt like My Face is cute but _______ oh, ill still think that later. Confident about that. Forget about iiit. Post it.
Then all the sudden youre not just fighting with yourself. there’s the whole social Media thing also including the “felt cute, might _____ later.” What R we doing later (?!) LOL. We say Shit that doesn’t make sense at all. (English still deemed the hardest language to learn b/c we have three versions of the same thing). Who decided why ppl need to know what we’re doing later if we are cute? LOL, Well then, I’m typically the later. I think. B/c if I even did feel cute I didn’t have enough confidence to say it, yea? Even if I was?
TRAP
This goes back to My eating Disorder(s)—which, is technically a fantastic eerily precluding example of the back and forth weight and confidence issues I’ve always had on and off. Ok so weight, up and down. Confidence obviously plays along. Self worth in that scale- turn the lights off. Can’t see your bones anymore, I’m doing something wrong. I’m healthier but I also have Long COVID-19? I lost all this weight and im fainting? Oh and science does back up that the reason u were so susceptible to getting sick is bc you got healthy! Your body was so assaulted it kicked into overdrive to help you but did a 180 gainer instead of the whole 360. So u Quit smoking. stopped drinking, et. Working on an eating disorder mixed of anorexia and exercise bulimia bc you used to be morbidly obese and lost 150 lbs and dammit you’re gonna let ppl know it for confidence’s sake. Do. Not. Waiver. Social Media is holding us all hostage and accountable.
That’s weak, Gentry. B/c if it’s on the Internet it’s REAL and it’s permanent. Keep it up. Don’t think about it too much.
Back to my body being so healthy it gets sick. The most laughable backwards bull shiggity I’ve ever been a part of. My Pleasure. Again, body got So healthy in fact, the health takes form and wants to protect you so badly that it turns turbo, fast, furious and wants to heal you SO fast and so well, well, it’s bad. And, AND, you cant do anything about that trust me your body is confident in that. Oh and also wait even tho u did follow all the covid safety rules half of America made fun of that is also irrelevant. Why? I’m confident the answer is bc What why? LOL. This gets Good, gets better. Need 2 years to explain. So book it in advance.
Speed ‘round to tie all the above mess? not confident I can do that with this entry. Can’t speed through any of this type Schitt in a few words. Forget a proofread.
Engine sputters. Then stops even sputtering. And pls stop using that word.
Pretty confident I can’t go anywhere now!
See now? Ofc you don’t.
Truly it was the beginning of the End. I’m confident about that. I do thank God for that tho. Not that this needed to happen but something needed to distract Me from myself and its prison only I could have built. Go ahead and add that pressure to your Tab too.
Me thinks i do. I sound Manic. And steroids influenced.
PS: if you take anything from this—these strategies of extremes to get extremes don’t work. They’re temporary. It’s more your mind than your body. They’re not going to make you happy everlasting.even Snow White got F’d temporarily and she was not even cute. There’s a shallowness to the extremes intoxication but unless like an Addiction you’re ready to Face and admit it honestly healing cannot Begin. TIME is on your side and most of the time you’d prefer it the other Way then the other Way. So This “advice”— or call it what you want— doesn’t just apply to confidence and the extremes we Will take so you CAN be all about you you you. Where is the line btw confidence Health and cockiness and a titch narcissism? The obsession—It Will leave you empty.
I just read the above and thank goodness I didn’t handwrite it b/c then you’d really have no chance of deciphering any part of it! Even so you may have to learn the hard Way like most of us. Something I’ll never understand but can look at somebody and know they’ve been there too.
Just do you. Don’t try so hard. You’ll be so tired. But just be present. That’s gonna bring joy. Not a scale. Not a selfie. What do YOU want. Trust my confidence on this at least. Ya can’t beat it. Truly is what is at your Core. What do people think first? I’m still unsure I want to know that anyway! Being yourself is terrifying. WHYYY?!
I need a scribe.
Don’t ask Me ;)
Be blessed.
Xx, g3

hi! I've been questioning aro for awhile now, and I guess I'd like yours/other's thoughts on how I experience dating, whether it's a common aro thing or I'm just allo and overthinking it lol.
so I've dated people before, I guess I don't mind some "romantic" things. but I know for sure I'm allosexual, so the lines blur? I don't exactly see the distinction between romantic "dates" and hanging out except for the different physical closeness, like cuddling or holding hands. acts that seem romantic, like compliments or gifts, are all things that I would do (and sometimes actually do) with my friends.
I think in my past relationships i experienced crushes, those butterfly feelings people cite when they talk about love/romance, but they faded quickly within a couple months. I don't see myself having those feelings with a long-term partner or getting married or anything like that.
sorry for the long ramble, and thanks for reading
Hi there anon! I've never dated anyone and so I can't really answer this question, so I have turned to the GC of truth (and anyone reading this and wants to talk about their experience with dating)
The GC of truth decided they were no help so now I have turned to the second GC. I actually also made this a daily aspec question so check that tag for more answers! "It's similar 4 me; I don't really feel romantic attraction to ppl? But I crave affection and praise and I get attached very quickly, and I currently have 2 partners 👍" - Apathetic and Chaotic "lithromantic? there are like several definitions for it but it's kinda like when you have feelings for someone and if it gets reciprocated, it'll fade away in some time. but if it doesn't get reciprocated, the feelings are just there." - Kaz "It seems like that person isn't interested in a real romantic relationship but a temporary feeling with others. Like they might feel like they love someone temporarily then it fades out within a few months (basing this off what they said), they might just be forcing themselves to love someone that they like in a friendly sense since they might think that they need to love someone if you get what I mean?" - Noirs Hope this helps! Stay safe and remember no matter what you are always valid!

I wonder if Felix was too good a character. He was made to be perfect up to being top of the graduating class and the point was to teach Kim and the audience a lesson about diversity and inclusivty and not assuming things about people who use wheelchairs. But with him being perfect does it also devalue people who use wheelchairs or have other adaptations?
there's a lot to cover, here, Anon... and most of it not about KP at all. i'm not entirely sure where to start.
to paraphrase the late Zig Ziglar, your attitude determines your altitude. i think the full quote also mentions that it's not aptitude that determines whether or not you succeed. i'll use myself as an example.
i'm a musician and i'm a good one. i'm primarily a timpanist. and i've received compliments from the likes of Jack Stamp(!!!!!!), Mark Camphouse, and others, worldwide, about my playing. even just thinking about those comments right now gives me a rush because...i'm SO far from the best it's not even worth comparing. i'll watch timpanists in world-class symphonies and their skill compared to mine is like, why do i bother? i'm nothing compared to them at least in my own eyes. i'm not beating myself down, i'm simply aware that i have limitations. some people have physical advantages, like Michael Jordan in basketball. but there are also short statured folk who practice, work hard, and can succeed in an area where usually to be successful one is very tall in stature. those shorter folk can never grow tall, but they succeed despite that perceived "limitation." my own body, my hands and fingers, are trained through four and six hours of daily practice of timpani alone to move in a certain way that apparently creates a wonderful and enjoyable sound when i play the instrument. but other timpanists still surpass me.
to acknowledge limits beyond one's control is okay. and for me at least it's healthy. i don't define myself by the fact that my hands will never move like some other ppl's. but through hard work, and with my attitude, i am still successful in something i am passionate about.
let's get to Felix now... his attitude has determined his altitude. he hasn't let the perceived and in some cases actual physical limitation of a wheelchair stop him from being successful. and before anyone says "it's not a limitation" let me give you the real life example of Nick Vujicic:
Tumblr media
Nick was born without arms and legs. but! it most definitely has not stopped him! Nick is married with four children. he is motivational speaker and most of the time is not using his wheelchair, but is hopping around under his own power. i think he even has a special car he drives with that partial foot he has.
your attitude, not aptitude, determines your altitude.
so, back to KP. while i think that yes Felix was created as a "perfect" character to make Kim and anyone else feel bad perhaps about automatically judging someone in a wheelchair... this doesn't bother me. i love that it is demonstrating to people that perceived limitations don't have to be limitations! yes, there comes a point to be realistic. my hands will never play timpani like some of those professionals, they physically don't move that way just as Nick and Felix won't walk in the same way most people do. but that limit doesn't define me, and didn't stop me from working hard enough to reach a skill that earned me compliments from ppl whose words carry a lot of weight.
i don't think Felix being perfect devalues anyone. i think more people, all people, should strive for attitudes like Felix and Nick, should work hard, and achieve whatever it is they want to achieve. it may look different than someone else's achievement, but...does it matter? in my opinion no, not if they are happy.
sorry there wasn't much KP in this ask answer... Felix is an awesome character who deserved more screen time. had the writers given him a tiny flaw he would have been interesting and more realistic. but his purpose was to primarily show people not to judge on appearance and stereotypes, and i think the secondary goal of showing ppl that your attitude determines your altitude. he fulfilled his character role and i don't think he devalues others who have different circumstances. the problem would be if we try to say that everyone can do the exact same things as Felix, or Nick. each person has different circumstances and that can't be ignored. but no i don't think Felix devalued anyone.
a VERY thought-provoking question, Anon!
