Three facts game!!! I'm weirdly giddy to see what happens:
- I am so uncoordinated that the two times I've attempted rollerskating I broke my wrist on the same exact bone near the same spot. I also trip and roll/sprain/twinge my ankles regularly.
- I am both overly sensitive and emotionally numb. I don't know how it works but I'm here for the Rollercoaster. But when I do get in touch with my emotional state it's always 0 to 100. So when I feel I feel 100%.
- I basically grew up on a farm!!! My grandparents' property was connected to ours via a pasture. We've had horses, a goat, so many chickens, a cow, a full garden. They even had orange and grapefruit trees.
FINALLY GETTING TO THE REST OF THESE- first of all. hiiii hi i love u. mwah <3
so i originally wanted to grab a character that i think you didn't know about beforehand, but then i realized that that's kind of a monumental task because you know me so well and have for so long. i mean. we're engaged. BUT.... i think i might have something for ya'. digging WAYYYY back in the archives for a character i honestly do not have any art saved for.
so i made her in a picrew. but anyway: an oc i made wayyyy back in middle school. fiona matthews! (picrew link: [link])
fiona was my first foray into a character archetype i'm not particularly fond of anymore, but i do still have some nostalgia for her. i was originally gonna go into that a bit more, but i'll just sum her up a bit: fiona in her original incarnation was a crime lord who took over the drug ring run by her ex-husband following his mysterious death. she rules it with a cruel smile and an unflinching sort of authority. however, rather than ruling through fear, she commands respect from her underlings by treating them with respect in turn.
as long as they stay loyal to her, she'll do anything for them.
ANYWAY. why am i kin assigning you fiona? i imagine that, though she's often very suave and confident and graceful, she's also clumsy as fuck. she's good at playing it off, but she's tripped and injured herself many times. that's not a particularly good image for a crime lord, though, in her opinion, so she's good at hiding it.
she also grew up in a pretty rural area!!! not on a farm, exactly, but a far cry from the city she lives in as an adult. it's not something she exactly advertises about herself, but it's a big part of her upbringing all the same.
and finally.... i think she'd relate to what you say about feeling numb vs feeling everything 100%. fiona has repressed many of her emotions over the years, but when they do break through, she feels them very intensely.

Please donate to @fadisharif ’s fund to help evacuate his family from Ghazzah. This is a trusted campaign. They are at $28k out of their $62,500 goal — they are a little over halfway to the amount needed to evacuate ($52,500 — with $10k needed to help with expenses in Egypt)! Help get them to safety and survive in Egypt.
As a thank you, have my beloved Fedallah my best friend Fedallah hanging out with the ship’s cat. Please donate and share.
[ID:
1st image — A digital drawing of Fedallah from Moby Dick, sitting on the deck of a ship with a sleepy cat in his lap. He is a thin, older Persian man with light brown skin, hair tightly wrapped in a white turban, and a beard and wide mustache. He wears a long white tunic and gray-purple pants, along with a knee brace on his right leg. He sits leaning against the ship’s mast, smiling cheekily at the viewer. He has his braces knee up and is holding the orange-white-and-black car in his lap, his other leg extended. In the background we see the deck of the ship on a sunny day.
2nd image — A closeup on Fedallah and the cat.
3rd image — A screenshot of a GoFundMe called "Please Help Evacuate Fadi's Family from Gaza." It shows three photos of a man with a baby. The progress bar reads "$28,960 raised of $62,500 goal - 1K donations."

[ID: Two nearly identical doodles of a person wearing a blue t-shirt. On the first one, he is wearing the t-shirt normally and looking at his boobs with a sad expression. The doodle is marked with a red X. On the second one, he is wearing the same shirt but tucked into his bra, exposing his belly. He is smiling, and the doodle is marked with a green check mark. /End ID]

the tf2 fandom on tumblr is in such dire straits, it wraps around from being annoying to being funny
no one knows anything about the time period it's set in. no one knows anything about the time period it was written in. no one knows the media genre it's parodying. no one knows how to write mostly-middleaged, mostly-white men who are intentionally and comedically a product of their time and individual cultures. no one seems to even realize each character is hugely informed by (the stereotyped version of) their culture. no one is comfortable engaging with the old war propaganda it's satirizing. no one knows anything about guns. some people actually think the sniper is 26
it's hard to watch, but then again the official comics post-2015 fall into every single one of these pitfalls too so like. maybe a lack of media literacy isn't just a fandom problem
