#maybe it has if so sorry 😔

[atrustfulplace]

imagine: you are chilling in front you your house getting high. along comes an old family friend who you last saw when you were six, you are now in your 50s. after a brief convo where he is kind of a dick to you, he’s like damn you’ve changed :/. and your like yeah bestie it’s been five decades why the fuck are you here. he leaves. later that night a shit ton of people show up and trash your house. just throw and absolute rager. halfway through the family friend from earlier shows up. he announces in full earshot of everyone that he wants you to come with him to rob a bank. you of course say wtf??? one of the people who broke into your house calls you a pussy. another person shoves you a contract which declares if you get shot robbing the bank they will not pay for your funeral. you pass out. when you wake up you find the contract on your table and your house almost completely back to normal. you stare at the contract for a moment and decide, fuck it this is just as a good a midlife crisis than anything.

this is what happened to bilbo baggins

cw: mention of previous abuse, dad Dabi, mom reader, mention of childbirth, angst

new dad touya that doesn’t know how to deal with his son. he’s growing too fast and his smiles are so big, but he’s still not sure how to just be with him.

touya isn’t abusive in the slightest, not like his shit for brains dad. he can acknowledge, after you’ve drilled it into his head on cold nights where you had to hold his quivering cheeks in your hand, that he’s better. that he’s trying. that he’s a great dad.

he doesn’t really believe it. it’s hard to believe that he’s a great dad when his son, still covered in that fresh newborn smell, stares up at him with matching azure blue eyes, the little shit, and he finds it hard to smile back. it’d be easier to smile back if he could guarantee a life with no trauma, with the perfect pair of parents, that he’d love him as much as his tiny little face deserved.

touya can still hear the labor and delivery nurse tell him that he must’ve gotten on your nerves for the baby to look so much like him, and that they’ve never seen a baby that fresh out the womb smile so big at their dad. he hands the little bundle back to you, and glares at the nurse who hands him a tissue. he takes it anyway.

touya loves his son. so goddamn much that it hurts, but, he doesn’t know how to be a dad. and he knows that you don’t know how to be a mom either, that it’s a learning process for the both of you. but he’s so scared—he’s terrified that he’ll fuck up this innocent brat with his ruin. with his scars and history and the want to better but never knowing how to just be.

so he leaves. it’s the day after your sons first birthday that you celebrated together in your home.

you thought everything was okay, that he was starting to get the hang of being a dad. he did everything right, why couldn’t he stay? he sat on the floor with your son and changed his diaper and made him giggle those addicting baby giggles? he carried your son everywhere whenever he cried after being sat down without a single complaint? he helped him open his birthday presents? he didn’t smash the cake in his face, only swiped a little icing on his sons nose to hear that addicting baby giggle? he held your son like he could never let him go?

how could he just go like this? you thought he was finally learning and accepting how to be a dad? what happened?

#angst angst angst #SORRY #I thought about this earlier while I was under the dryer #and I was like ohhhh write that down before your slow ass forgets #my toxic trait is that every time I write soemthing short im like #……this could be a full fic 🫣 #LMFAO honestly duck it im making this a full fic #I have so many on my plate but this has to go on the list #he makes my heart so sad I love him mr pathetic man with so many troubles in his head #I also wanna write a sleazy shiggy n keigo fic (separate) what’s wrong with me #all these ideas and no juice to write them #im just about halfway finished w my classes so maybe il get more inspo to write #anyway I have a bkg draft from like two nights ago that I forgot about #and I wanna write that too but my head really hurts and I have to be up early tomorrow sad 😔 #okay I think im gonna sleep now :) #—new treat in the streets! 🍫 #dabi treats! 🍬

you ever just. become overwhelmed by a sudden out-of-nowhere wave of tenderness and affection and longing for reconnection directed towards someone to whom you no longer speak for Very Good Reasons

#‘out of nowhere’ she says like she hasn’t been doing a lot of reading/thinking recently about various tragic messy breakups #and the later regrets of the parties involved #anyway. tell me not to text her #it’s been over two years since the last time we talked… absolutely no reason to break that streak now. lord give me strength #she was really fucking mean to me! like objectively intentionally unwarrantedly cruel! it ruined an entire year of my life #and fundamentally changed me as a person on a deep level! there’s a lot of things i used to like about myself that i don’t think i’m ever #going to get back #and yet every once in a while we have to do the whole ‘maybe i could make things right’ song and dance 😔 #the thing is most of the time i’m not even really angry with her anymore like enough time has passed since all the shit went down that #really i just sort of look at her behavior and feel sad. both because of the impact on me but also because of the ‘that’s really how you #felt you needed to act towards someone who cared about you? you couldn’t have just expressed your feelings in an honest and productive way #instead of just lashing out in the cruelest possible way and ruining the entire relationship beyond hope of repair?’ #and i feel bad and sorry that it went that way and honestly i kind of pity her and hope she’s gotten some of her shit worked out #so i’m not like. actively pissed off at her anymore. but also i can’t think about her without thinking about the worst year of my life so 🙃 #i don’t actually feel that trying to reopen that door would be very healthy for me at least #we did try a Reconciliation of sorts a couple of months after the initial falling-out and while it was kind of helpful for me in that she #like. apologized lmao. and affirmed that i wasn’t crazy and she did in fact On Purpose say the most hurtful things she possibly could have #said to me given the information she had at her disposal. and that i really had not done anything to her that could warrant that. etc. #it also left a sour enough taste in my mouth that i just don’t see a future where the two of us spending time together is enjoyable for me #and yet… the regret will always live inside me i think. maybe if i were a stronger person… #caseyposting

Also what is your subjective opinion on into the woods? Ive never watched it, just curious.

my PURELY SUBJECTIVE opinion on into the woods is that it’s bad and i don’t like it. some of the music is really fantastic!! the witch’s stuff especially gets to me (<- typical statement from guy with mommy issues). but the entire show i think is. poorly constructed. the pacing is godawful, especially in the second act, and every single character feels thin and meaningless to me. i think the whole fairytale caricature setup doesn’t work for me, and i just don’t Get it. i understand the themes of family going on i just like. don’t know what to do with it.

now. granted. i Thought i liked into the woods before i actually worked on it and the more i did the more it fell apart for me. but it is also worth noting that this is the worst production of into the woods ever produced by my college so that has definitely colored my view.

#HI ALEX THANSK FOR THE ASKS #i’m gonna get to your music ones as soon as i’m out of rehearsal #sorry to my mutuals who are fans 😔 #i Want to like it so bad and i believe maybe i could in the hands of a capable director but no version i’ve seen including the obc has #- worked for me #if there’s something i’m missing tho. tell me i just don’t understood why everyone likes it so much #ted talks

[crypticroyals]

Ok. This might sound controversial but I need to get this out there.

Some people (not a lot and definitely not everyone) are saying it's cultural appropriation to use their or native American folklores for things outside of the native's context.

Alright I guess Greek and Norse and Japanese mythology can't ever be used again anymore guys. Remove all the fiction we have ever made. Library of Alexandria style.

Like, yes, I get the concept of not bastardizing a folk myth in the sense of like, "oh here's a w*ndigo, they're a hero!" when the creature is an embodiment of evil and represents all the negative things racist people ever associated with native Americans. Yeah I get that, but that shouldn't mean someone can't take the story and use it in their own in the right context.

That's what native America groups have done in so many different tribes. There is like 5+ different versions of the myth that are all native culture (all are Algonquian in close region iirc but still they have different things) so why can't I keep the main features that all cultures explain, use it in the same context but the lore is changed slightly to fit the story I'm representing it in?

THAT IS WHAT FOLKLORE IS

Don't get me wrong, if someone took a creature/being from folklore and made it something completely different and than tried to use the name of it, that isn't the same myth anymore and should be given a different name, not the one they tried to say was their new depiction. But that still shouldn't mean I can't use a myth. The main reason Im upset about this is because you have a small amount of people saying it's bad and shouldn't be done even if used accurately even tho pretty much every other culture does.

Norse mythology? Look at Marvel with it's Odin, Thor, Hel and Loki. Greek mythology? That existed years ago and a few modern day pagan Greeks use it outside context and allow others to use it because it's ancient stories full of culture heritage. Same with Roman mythology which is basically Greek mythology but changed for a new context and many use that. Hell we have planets named after them!

I'm not saying "take a myth and make it something no longer that myth but claim it is" because that would be super rude as it ruins what the myth ment and stood for. But things change constantly. No two versions of a myth are exactly the same. Who's to say I can't represent it in my own way? I love learning about cultures and all sorts of myths and tales and cuisines and traditions. But if people can represent Zues or a Kirin and no one bats an eye than why do some people get mad when someone uses a native spirit of greed and winter hm? I know some people of native groups prefer to not speak certain terms as they see it as taboo. The W*nd*go for example. But some do. So why can't I represent cultures in a fantasy setting? Sure the myths aren't real life and consist from cultures all over with different contexts, but if we can't use windigos why can we use fairies and elves and gnomes? Is it because those are white myths? If so that seems very rude. But I'm not sure that's what it is because we have Asian myths and Greek myths in which are used. So I suppose it's because how people back than treated Africa and the Americas. That and how some "modern" takes resemble nothing of the cultures' actually things. Like in Africa Voodoo is now some "heebe jeebies murder witchcraft" and in Algonquian cultures the windigos are now for some reason weird deer minotaurs???? Like, why are they deer now? That's a new thing now, give it a new name please.

Anyways, I do not wish for people to believe this is some angry rant about how people should be allowed to steal and bastardize cultures. Because that isn't true. That's also something wrong people really shouldn't do. But what I guess I mean by all this, is that cultures spread and change over times everywhere and so many connect and change and show heritage and history. We should love each other and other's cultures no matter differences. In the end, we're all human. We shouldn't be fighting someone who wants to make a story about some sorcerers and rogues trying to hunt down a monstrous thing of evil that has been torturing a scared town that represents native cultures. We should be fighting the people who try to make a movie about a myth for the thrill factors that completely change the myth till nothing of the old tale remains and dare to call it the same.

I'm pretty sure this won't get a lot of representation besides hate from the few I spoke about but I felt the need to at least get this off my chest and I apologize if this offends anyone no matter how.

Hopefully one day humanity can get along better than it does. 🤞💕🤝

#also my little pony has windigos in a different context and i have yet to see anyone mad about it #maybe there is some but i haven't found anything #i hope noone sees this as agressive in any way #i just love reading so much about everything and loving the connections and difences of cultures #but im so tired of being terrified to represent anything in anything #i worry about race i worry about culture i worry about accents and disabilities and diseases and so much #all because i see a few people getting so so mad at someone who wanted to share a story about a spirit outside of the big three mythologies #aka norse greek and japan #i know many people get mad at others for anything #but we should be getting along 😔 #i guess im just tired and hopeful #i try to use inspiration from things as a way to let unrepresented people that at least someone cares about who they and their people are #i hate when people try to hate on someone for being different #i hate when people think they're better than anyone else because of who their people are #i hate how i feel like im on stepstones over harsh waters because im worried i will offend someone for trying to show i love who they are #i don't wish for ill intentions on anyone and i apologize if anyone sees this as rude to them #i just hope people understand where im coming from with this and why i felt the need to share #i just want to love others cultures and show that i care #and wish to share fantasies and speculative evolution of their myths and legends in a way to connect with others and the unknown #im sorry if i upset anyone that is not my intentions at all and i apologize for repeating this #im just worried this will come off the wrong way and i end up with hate spam in my inbox #i never get inbox stuff but i hope my first ones aren't hatemail #culture #planet earth #mythology #Love of Humanity and Unity

i hate you read receipts i hate you notifications i hate you online activity indicators i hate you modern day expectation that people should be contactable and responsive every hour of every day just because they have a phone

#like oooooh my god. i hate the ‘X was active X hours ago’ SO MUCH I hate the idea that people have an obligation to be reachable #more or less constantly I hate the expectation that people should reply to texts the instant they get them i hate unsolicited FaceTimes #i hate it all. i hate people getting genuinely angry over ‘slow replies’ as if I am supposed to be constantly at the beck and call #of anyone who has the ability to contact me via my phone. i hate it i never want to send a text or an email again #anyway sorry technology rant over. maybe they were right maybe it because because I’m on that damn phone 😔 #(ridi's) bigmouth strikes again

[daz4i]

how is it. that for a whole week. the house smelled fine, and other than some dust and cat hair it was really clean too, and everything was organized and easy to find with no towers of dishes in the sink about to topple over. even tho i didn't clean that much or do anything out of the ordinary to keep the house this way. but now my parents have been home for like 3 days and already every room except for mine is inhospitable from how bad they all smell, and there's mess all over, and the table is constantly sticky, and the sink is somehow full yet barely has any dishes in it bc the way they're organized is so ineffective, and i hate it here i wanna leave so bad

#i know i probably can't run a place in the long term on my own. but. neither can they apparently!!!!! damn!!!!!!!! #idk if it's been getting worse recently or if my patience just runs thinner lately #the way they live is just incompatible with me and my needs really #ough ough ough i need to move out. I'm so scared. but it'll be good for me probably. #I'm just fantasizing abt a clean apartment. no sticky surfaces. no bad smells. mmmmm #vent #sorry i had to clean my brain out. it did help tho. i needed to complain abt this shit 😭 #today has been awful in part bc of that. the constant bad smells that stick to everything. the inability to do things when i need to #this shit makes me literally unable to function on even the most basic levels... like i didn't really eat or move much bc i felt so bad #i have an easier time when I'm alone. life becomes easier to handle when i can do it on my own terms #but I'm so scared 😔 and I'm stressed about the process of getting there too #maybe this is the reason I'm having stress nightmares these days idk. i need to send some files for that. but I'm too scared

every day my youtube recommendations are inundated with 40 minute videos titled "the rise and fall of ____" where ____ is something that is very much still alive and thriving 😔

#i like 20 min to 10 hour videos where someone talks about some random shit for a long time but i am PICKY #u have to take it seriously. jokes are fine and good and some things are goofy but u still have to take it as it is u know!! #like u cant just look at some niche hobby community that had like maybe 1 thing blow up a bit outside the community a few years ago #and say its dying just because nothing else has gone big in the mainstream. its a niche hobby community for a reason #i dunno im sorry to be pretentious but i am in a constant state of that clip from parks and rec where the dude is in the home depot #like. i know more than you. clicks the kebab menu and presses remove from recommendations #i dunno for real people are constantly obsessed with calling niche mediums and hobbies and movements dead just because they personally #havent looked much into it. its a tale as old as time but now we have the internet and u can just like look at a forum or something #and find a very alive community still around so its like. come on 😔

restraining myself from being a hater bc the thing in question isnt like morally wrong or the worst thing ever & many beloved mutuals and friends like it a lot and i dont want to hurt any feelings but also ive been thinking about the aspects of it i dislike a lot lately

#its like. i DO enjoy parts of it. but i just think that a show shouldnt take 20 episodes for it to actually be enjoyable to watch #sorry this is vague its a kamen rider season and i feel mean disliking it i dont want to ruin peoples fun especially since #people i care about are enjoying themselves im just gmgmg im sorry its not my cup of tea. i will finish watching it bc i enjoy aspects #of it like some of the characters. but im just kind of like 😔 im glad ur all having fun i love yall but this is probably my #least favorite kr show ive watched so far #maybe thatll change ive heard it has better moments later on but it just also might be not liking the writer as much
