#from boys to men

[myobsessionsspace]

No one stays the same. It’s OK.

Who you were at 15 can’t be who you are at 25, no one would think that’s ‘normal.’ People would question.

Who you were at 21 can’t be who you are at 31, people would wonder if you’d lived a sheltered life, never experienced the real world.

Some stay the same, most will change.

Who you show to your parents won’t be the same person you show to your siblings.

Who you show to your friends won’t be the same that you show to new friends, acquaintances or the general public.

Just because you hated tomatoes and were passionate about letting anyone who would listen know it, doesn’t mean one day tasting a bomb ass sandwich with tomatoes won’t have you chowing down on them like apples years later. You weren’t lying about hating them then, you aren’t lying about loving them now.

We can know something about people, without knowing everything about them, we can say we knew them then but still learn more about them now.

It’s up to us if we accept it or not. It’s not up to them to make us comfortable with it or not.

call me crazy but maybe they should stop making documentaries about serial killers. especially when the victims’ families weren’t consulted or compensated. just a thought

#and maybe y’all should stop watching them too #all the white women talking about how they were able to sit through/it wasn’t scary or gruesome blah blah blah #telling on themselves. like we get that u don’t care about this shit #when it’s affecting poc esp Black men and BOYS. #no awareness whatsoever #and you get dumb fucks like that sb from earlier talking about how it’s the queer rep they want #like god kys #antiblackness

One thing I genuinely think the fandom forgets or underestimates is just how weird Neil is. Like we paint him to be this carismatic, flashy, cocky bad boy, but in reality he's stingy, skittish, balks at anything more personal then his thoughts on Exy and Cannot for the life of him socialize. Like in the Raven King, right after Seth dies, he straight up goes:

"Neil had to patch things up with [Allison] somehow, but he didn't know where to start. He'd never been good at winning people over. Someone like Allison wasn't likely to be his first success. "

Neil's spent his life living on the outskirts of "average" life. Ergo, he's cagey and flighty and so far removed from normal that even among the Foxes he'll always be a little unpredictable and odd. And you know what, good for him; we all deserve an antisocial introverted asshole to raly behind.

#bless Andrew for being able to sniff that out from the beginning #because like sure he gets better as the series progresses #and he gains more confidence #and ground to stand on #but like come on #this boy has absolutely no pop culture knowledge and probably thinks NSYNC is an acronym #for some disease #because that stuff is only needed when making connections with others #and neil was never allowed to do that #aftg #andrew minyard #neil josten #the foxhole court #the raven king #the kings men #im in the trenches of my 8th reread #and my own emotions #wish me luck #mine

some of you took "trans men are men" and ran with it and are now calling us oppressors, saying we benefit 100% from male privilege, saying we can't have internalized misogyny and a ton of other shit like i genuinely think radfems have poisoned your brains whether you realize it or not.

#big shoutout to this website for going from uwu soft smol trans boi to trans men joined the evil side i guess! #.txt

concept: ADA!Chuuya, but All Men Are Equal gave him total control of his ability by stabilizing it and getting rid of his permanent singularity, so he reverted to his original power: enhancing others' abilities.

Bonus:

#for my jokes to work this ability needs to either be always active (like no longer human HA) #or for chuuya to not have full control over it (doesn't really follow all men are equal) #i also think there's a 50/50 chance fukuzawa's ability is made up but that won't stop me from playing in this sandbox #bsd #bungo stray dogs #bungou stray dogs #bsd fanart #bsd chuuya #bsd nakahara chuuya #ada!chuuya #ada!skk #armed detective agency #bsd dazai #skk #soukoku #bsd atsushi #bsd yosano #(looks at my collection of ada!chuuya: this bad boy can fit so many aus in him) #SPOILERS OOPS #bsd stormbringer spoilers #bsd storm bringer spoilers #nawy's comics #i have an alternate (less joke-y) vision for how chuuya would take it but it got angsty real quick and i didn't know how to end it #it might appear one day #we'll see #it liked the first part so i might use it on its own anyway #i mean kind of it's still unsure in the end

When you feel how hard he is after sitting on his lap and wiggle around just to make it worse for him while pretending not to notice how much he's struggling to hold it together

"Wah the woke gay agenda has gone too far they put gambit in a crop top" first of all I can't believe this is an actual take i saw with my eyes online. he looks incredible cry harder about it

secondly complaining about gay shit (like crop tops??!) in legitimately any iteration of x-men is a complete failure of media comprehension on a truly apocalyptic level

thirdly I want you to take a look at this picture and tell me where you see a single fucking ounce of heterosexuality. Look at this man in a pink breastplate, trenchcoat, thigh high boots and fingerless gloves and tell me where in the room the straightness is hiding:

PLEASE.

#live and let live or whatever but i am infuriated at the very notion of someone accusing gambit of ever being straight #how dare you besmirch my boy like that #HE IS LITERALLY DRESSED IN BI COLORS #HE THROWS GLOWING FUSCHIA PLAYING CARDS #HE'S FROM NEW ORLEANS #gambit xmen #x men 97 #remy etienne lebeau

i feel like the queer community lost when we started policing labels and making sure everyone used the Correct™ labels instead of letting a person decide what feels right for them

#caique posts #inspired by a post a trans guy made asking if it was okay for him to keep identifying as a lesbian even though he’s now a man #and all the comments telling him no because lesbians can’t be men #and also all the other posts of people asking if they’re ''allowed'' to use certain labels #why do you need permission? #who are you even asking permission from? #we’re not cops #do whatever you want forvever #also inspired by an article in a zine in the 80s/90s of two FtMs in a T4T relationship #one of them described the relationship as being between a butch and his sissy boy #i cannot ever imagine anyone calling themselves that nowadays #because of ''only lesbians can be butches'' and ''sissy is offensive'' discourse #i’m sure there are people out there who would want to describe their relationship like that but don’t feel they’re ''allowed'' to #anyway lots of baby queers are tying themselves in knots trying to figure themselves out #and they’re more concerned with using the Correct™ label instead of the one they feel most comfortable with #yeah i just don’t like it #knowing you’re queer should be a liberating feeling #instead of something anxiety-inducing because you’re worried if you’re using labels wrong

did you guys know that the woman who coined the term “final girl” is actually a scholar of Icelandic medieval poetry? I don’t know why this particular fact is standing out to me so strongly but just imagine, being an expert in 70s and 80s slasher films and writing a seminal work on gender and the horror audience...

and then going home and thinking about the Njála for the rest of the evening.

#carol j please explain to me how you went from medieval literature scholar to writing about how teenage boys identify with victimized women #I don't think there's anything wrong with it or that there aren't comparisons to be made between the two #but just. how. #anyway I'm reading men women and chainsaws and having a very good time! #from the bookshelf

🌊✨Camping in Cornwall 1977✨🌊

This was one of the first scenes that I wanted to draw after reading Atyd.

Now that I look at it…the pillows are kinda overstimulating, but whatever these guys lived in the wizard world of the 70s…there had to be weird overstimulating patterns everywhere 😂

I have absolutely no idea how Tumblr works anymore but let me try anyway!
