the argument for minimalism and particularly all white kitchens etc is still raging on instagram diy pages which is almost exclusively what i go on instagram for so. idk i just find it interesting bc the defense is always “it looks so clean and calming to me, too many colors and textures make things look so cluttered and messy to me” n i will never understand this because a white kitchen (or any light monochrome space) looks fucking disgusting if u actually use it like omfg the amount of time n energy it would take to keep the walls from getting scuffed idek just everything. how do you cook and live in there if COLORS give you that much stress. do you think its the phones

#idk everyone told me i would grow out of maximalism n wanting everything to be colored n patterned #but theres plenty of grown up women who actually enjoy decorating their homes #(and are relentlessly mocked by certain ppl thats another strange thing) #whatever i just dont get why ppl see a completely white empty space as clean and calming #go live in a hospital you need help

When I was in uni we had to do a presentation on an artist chosen from a provided list and I chose Mark Ryden and the lecturer who I presented it to laughed and asked mockingly why I would make the presentation pink because it’s extremely unprofessional and I was like you mean this guy?

Why did I make a presentation on this guy pink???

#we were told the aesthetics didn’t really matter and to make them cohesive with the theme #and it was LITERALLY just a muted millennial pink background w white boxes and dark pink text #everyone else did black and white but we legit had people with dyslexia on our course so I didn’t wanna do that #AND other peoples were just as heavily decorated and coloured it was literally just the colour pink she bitched about #and I was like why? what’s the issue? it’s a major part of his work and it’s just a damn colour what’s your problem??? #in front of the whole class I was so mad and embarrassed but I was too annoyed to drop it #we were also in pairs and I ended up doing the whole thing for a lot of reasons and then my partner couldn’t even pronounce the words #so it was made extremely clear I’d done everything and for some reason this makes teachers assume YOURE the asshole #I’ve had it so many times where I’ve been that guy doing the whole thing and then those in charge are like #why are you being such a control freak and nasty to your group #like idk maybe because I’m the only one even remotely trying and I don’t want to fail SHARON

AAAH I have a mutual who’s 18 and he sorta kinda is flirting with this one guy who is a minor as a joke of course ( to which a concerned anon said that it’s weird ) but I can’t help but flashback to er*s

#granted the er*s situation was thoroughly complex and the reason she did those things was her copism with not being able to pull ( LLLLLLL ) #and ik that guy doesn’t mean any harm etc etc he’s not messed up like some ppl #BUT I DUNNO STILL #sobbing #they’re pretty sweet so #hes* #OH AND HES IRAQI TOO I LEGIT COULDNT BELIEVE THAT #dora daily #lowkey kinda sorta sad that a whole anon was more concerned than ppl i knew and who knew my age #and freely saw it happen so readily #and everyone else on that blog #genuinely and utterly disappointed #it’s always protect minors until the minors need protecting goddamn #this is especially directed at rhy yeah I’m not censoring that #🤷‍♀️ #too busy simping over minor characters who don’t have a time skip in canon and aging them up then complaining about it when ppl call out #the brain deadery of that behaviour #girl pls #you did not care about minors from the beginning literally bye #e[redacted] literally ruined my brain chemistry to say the least I will never go into how what she did absolutely muddled my brain never #told anyone and I don’t think I can ever tell someone ever #not to mention practically hyperventilating being unable to breath literally going into madness and ppl think that I’m overreacting and #telling me to shut up about it and blaming me for the situation as if I wanted any of this #lmaolmaolmao #all that and I was expected to do uni girl byeeee I need a good century to recover at least ☠️ #the only thing I DID want is friends but clearly that was a hard ask when ppl can get friends just by existing on this god forsaken app #atp I don’t even know what to say literally just wth #yall say mdni with your dumbass banners and decorate it like something special when yall are the ones to keep from minors you disgusting #wastes of clean oxygen 😭 mdni my foot gross ass adults should’ve never trusted them #the way I’d give them therapy to their complex traumas ☠️ imagine relying on a minor for therapy

like thinking abt it my favorite type of game protag for games where you can make your own guy is the one that already has some hooks built into the characterization... like either you have a backstory vaguely outlined (like kotor2 exile always blowing up malacor V, durge always being durge, bhaalspawn always coming from candlekeep and being bhaalspawn) or some recent event having a deeply personal effect on the pc (watcher getting their powers, courier 6 getting shot in the head, the pc accidentally fits the nerevarine prophecy, Areelu kidnaps the pc). Like having that little extra something elevates the story and allows for more coherence bc the writers have those hooks to draw together whatever the game is trying to say and what story it can tell. imo

#quenthel special #like ig there are always attempt for these hooks but imo in for example in inquisiton or fallout 4 it doesnt really work #neverwinter nights 2 also had a very interesting setup that is similar #like i had a friend who treated games like this exclusively as like toyhouses for her to write her own characters #and was 100% interested in the stories she was creating through these and not engaging w the stories the games told #and like thats just not the way i would ever enjoy games like this... #i also ig love when games are less sandbox type and give you a lot of focus... like a more controlled experience #only game that i liked that wasnt like this was like... sims dwarf fortress and house flippers lol #bc i love building houses and decorating them... #df also just presents you with a lot of constant problems you have to keep solving and i enjoyed it a lot #but even then i was like looking up content made by other ppl to see what you can make w the tools avaliable

it’s kind of wild that you don’t realize how depressed you were until you start feeling better

#does this make sense to anyone else #i’m like currently coming out of a funk #even my therapist told me the past 6 months is the most depressed she’s ever seen me (i’ve been seeing her weekly for 3+ years) #and literally these past like 2-3 weeks since i put my resignation in at my old job #i have had so much energy and motivation #today i walked both dogs and went on a walk with baby girl after daycare #i went to the local nursery and bought mums & pumpkins #i brought out the interior fall decor from storage and put it around the house #like obv i have extra time bc i have some time off before i start my new job #but like!!!! i haven’t *wanted* to do anything for so long #like i was just completely apathetic #i’m gonna cry thinking about it #but it feels so good to feel like i’m turning a corner #hi if you read this far ilysm i am kissing you on the mouth

I don't think accidentally stumbling upon bram stoker's dracula playing at a halloween party when I was 5 & staying and watching it in secret had any effect on me at all (no one look at my blog lately)

#so liiiike we were at these family friends' house. they lived down the street and they were SO FUN and nice and wonderful #truly they were just great ppl. and the wife was SO into creative stuff and she would go ALL OUT for parties esp Halloween #all the adults would dress up and the house was elaborately decorated it was SO MUCH FUN! #and they had 3 boys around my ahe and the husband had a daughter from his 1st marriage and she was much older like a teen #and she abd her friends had rented the movie and they were told they could watch it on the condition that they ONLY watch it #in the master bedroom away from all the kids #welllll I had to go to the bathroom but the main bathroom was occupied but I knew I was alloeed to use the master bath #so I went into the room to go to the bathroom and walked in right in the beginning when vlad is impaling ppl and I was like #wait a minute what is THIS this is something I'm not supposed to see ooooohhhhh #so I peed and then pretended to leave & hid and watched the movie lmfao #all the adults were making margaritas lmao I was like hell yeah watching a big scary adult halloween movie!!!!! #erin explains it all #these typos all stay idk what to tell you man I don't have my glasses on and my nerve damage is still not great 🤷‍♀️

minthe cute. tummy

glad u agree

#ask #personality wise i think shes one of my favorite ocs atm #shes very competent and good at her job but Really Wishes She Wasn't Here Right Now #shes like a very tired millennial wine aunt personality wise lol #you just know if she had a house she would decorate it in millennial gray and teal and would have a country farmhouse aesthetic #and she has a dedicated wine glass thats like disturbingly large that she pulls out if shes told she can only have one glass of wine #alcohol mention

I will say I was laughing so hard my stomach hurt a little when my aunt had told me why my "cousin" (her niece, one I cut off. Tradwife cousin) isn't talking to her

So cousin's kids all look like fucking Charles Dickens orphan characters with these huge ass foreheads, whispy ass hair, and huge like sunken looking eyes. Well she had sent my aunt a picture of the kids and the one looked so fucking raggedy like always and she had asked if my cousin had ever seen "Call the Midwife", bc that's who her kids looked like, the kids on the show. She meant this as a compliment.

My cousin goes no I haven't, what do those kids look like?

And this is where my aunt made the mistake, she said they were desolate poor kids who like never had nice clothes. Not connecting that she was telling her that her KIDS then looked desolate and poor. (I was already cackling bc accurate. I know her husband makes a LOT of money and I know how much our aunt left her bc I've seen the will/got the same amount. So all together she's like upper middle class. They CAN afford to dress their kids nicely)

So my cousin didnt find that funny and she's like "and you're saying my kids look like that?" That being poor and raggedy.

Aunt heard "like those kids on that show"

My aunt then PHOTOSHOPS SAID KID INTO A COLLAGE OF THE KIDS FROM THE SHOW and puts a caption "which of these children Arent on the show Call the Midwife?" As a joke

Cousin didnt like that. Anyway the next day my aunt and her kid were at a flea market and saw really cute baby clothes and she had said "oh I wish I knew someone in the family with little kids. OH! COUSIN'S KIDS" and she texted that to her asking if she could buy them for the kids

Well she wasnt thinking anymore ab the previous conversation and how it essentially was her saying (in my cousin's eyes) that my cousins kids look poor and like they never have nice clothes, and hey can I buy your raggedy ass kids these clothes?"

I was nearly in fucking tears man 😭 I mean I'd be pissed as hell if she'd done that to me ab my hypothetical kids but bc it was a cousin I cut off and hate, and one who has really ugly children (they look like those renaissance paintings of babies sgsggsgsg like I'm sorry that is a man that isnt a baby) it was so funny

#marquilla #i was so glad that someone else finally admitted that her kids look like Victorian street urchins 😭 i found a skeleton baby decoration #thing at halloween and it had sunken in eyes and a sad face and i went 'oh my god i didnt know 'cousin's kids had their own dolls! #mom didn't find it funny but i did #oh and my uncle was like 'well you told her her kids looked homeless! what was she supposed to think!?' and she stops and went 'i didn't #say homeless i said they looked desolate' as if that was better 😭 #i was like 'no she didnt day that she said they looked poor and like they didnt have any kind of nice clothes' 😭 #i mean when you are so far up the tr/adwife pipeline that you dress your kids like peasants and never comb their hair...

love 13&graham's duo vibe of 'the only two adults here' which is really only there on graham's side bc 13 does Not think of him as in charge with her, does Not think of herself as an adult, and Is one of the kittens to be herded also

#graham would look at her like 'oh these kids am i right doc' and she'd look at him like how she looked at yaz when told #'women this way men that way' or how she looked at ada when babbage was like women are as much for decoration as purpose or whatever #like she says earlier in this book like 'im not a man OR a woman the way you understand it' #'im the kid AND im in charge here' #breaking the binary

just noticed the checkerboard pattern Benson drew on the front of his green coat... true 2000s girlies doodling on their eastpak backpacks with sharpie kinda swag <333

#SO MANY MEMORIES!!!!! #reminds me of the pink pencil case my parents forced on me which i turned black this way (faded to dark blue bc i used cheap markers) #and then attacked with silver and gold pens <3 #and the other pencil cases i decorated in a similar fashion #2000s nostalgiaaaaaaaa #like if you had any type of sturdy fabric? you put scribbles on that shit!!! denim of any kind. backpacks. pencil cases. etc #i was also the type of kid to draw on myself with various pens and pencils lol #everyone told me it'd make me sick and kill me but 20 years later i'm still somewhat kicking haha

an episode of the venture bros centered around pete and billy's wedding that they're putting on for the sake of rose but also because they could use the insurance benefits and through the course of the episode they start to realize they do have feelings for each other for real and it's weird and new and billy goes to talk to his mom about it and says, "mom, i think i might be gay" and she's like, "oh sweetie i already knew that 😊" and pete goes to rusty like "hey rust it's so weird but i think i might actually be gay for billy" and rusty's like "white we are literally at your gay wedding are you stupid"

#the venture bros #pete white #billy quizboy #billy whalen #i just enjoy the visual of billy nervously talking it through with his mom and eventually coming out #and it cuts to her with the wedding decor behind her and she's like ????? yeah i know?? we're at your wedding?? #and meanwhile there's a b plot of the monarch trying to sabotage the whole thing #not because he doesn't like pete or billy #but because if he can kill rusty before the reception he can get home before rush hour #and dr mrs the monarch is genuinely happy for billy and pete and she's like 'babe i need you to be normal for once in your life' #meanwhile gary is hiding in the flower arrangement waiting for the signal and the monarch forgot he told him to do that #dean being all misty-eyed and hank being bored stiff so he winds up causing more trouble than the monarch ever could #the idea of all of pete and billy's contacts being forced into one space together and restricted by social rules #and they're all dying to beat the crap out of each other but this is Not the time or place for it but god that guy just looks so punchable #and of course OF COURSE pete would be wearing the most ostentatious tux you've ever seen in your life #just because this isn't a 'real' marriage doesn't mean he's not doing it in style

I cannot take a lot of what cis women have to say about """"femininity"""" seriously esp the pink preening variety because it all looks the fucking same. It's not so much a genuine expression of self as it is purchasing an identity in lieu of actually thinking about what all these actions and values they claim constitute this idea of femininity mean. ur not feminine ur just a buyer of pink objects lol I can't respect that anymore than I can respect alpha males because it's two sides of the same stupid cissexist coin

#Its all 'I love vanity and beauty' but you look the same as 300 million other people. stop lying #also I find it personally offensive as someone who actually enjoys preening and curating my appearance #like who made you gatekeepers of being vain and sexy and extremely particular about the way you arrange your body and home?? #plus the decoration of self and surrounding is a very instincive human trait we just get trained out of doing it by being called fussy #and being told that having any concern about your comfort or appearance is a sin and a sign of being unintelligent or wtv

#minor vent. #i left my home town about 6 years ago #and im kind of sick of some friends and especially family being like oh come visit. come up and visit us we never see you #like are you not perfectly capable of travelling down to see me why is it always on me to make the effort #im about 5 hours away by train and its just like. idk. Annoying #also i havent forgotten the one time a friend of mine just bought a house with her boyfriend and i had just moved to worcester #and i was like yeah you should come see me for a weekend we can hang out #and she didnt because her boyfriend told her. and i quote. #'why would we waste time travelling when we could spend it decorating our new house' #like yea i get it they were excited to have their own house but telling me that spending time visiting me was a waste. Lmfao. Sure #and in the six years ive been away my parents have not once made an effort to come down to see me #when my brother got married he booked a hotel for the guests that did not have enough room for me to stay. #i wouldve had to stay in a separate hotel miles away from everyone else bc he got married in the middle of nowhere #and considering i moved away to get away from them in the first place. i ask u #why should i bother making a fucking effort.
