OKAY series of polls about sock preferences because i'm a curious autistic fuck:

(if you don't wear socks don't answer any of the other questions)

#excellent poll #poll #I will keep wearing socks if I step in water if there is no other choice #as in I am out and about and I step in a puddle #wet shoes no socks are worse than wet shoes wet socks #so I will suffer through the wet socks until I can remove said socks #and the second I am somewhere I can go barefoot I am going barefoot

When I was younger and researching the autism diagnosis criteria and symptoms, I thought “oh I couldn’t POSSIBLY be autistic.” Because when I read “takes everything literally” I thought it literally meant EVERYTHING and I was like “I don’t take EVERYTHING literally, just most things!” And I just realized the other day that it didn’t actually mean EVERYTHING and that was an overstatement.

u gotta let urself process thoughts and emotions ur ashamed of without judgment or they'll build up and come out sideways via weird contrived justifications. a thought on its own is not actually an impulse to act--it can just feel like one when u let urself get too anxious about it. ur not gonna turn into a monster just by thinking about things that gross you out or letting yourself have feelings you know are disproportionate and shouldn't be acted on.

#trans crocodile is pretty great #it would mean he stabbed his own son #this wouldn’t make him anywhere close to being one of the worst one piece dads #also somebody said transfem Sanji and I agree #Sanji at least has a feminine side he absolutely refuses to get in touch with #I mean it’s canon #he was enjoying femininity for a while then the toxic masculinity kicked back in #and he fricking regressed further into awful to cope #dude needs to go get his nails painted. buy a dress #maybe Sanji is trans maybe not but he needs to go buy a nice dress and just enjoy wearing it

Image description: A four page black and white comic of my tortoiseshell cat, Bunny, complaining that I won’t let her in from the screen porch.

Page 1 

Panel 1: A small tortoiseshell cat sits on the other side of a glass door, looking up sadly, saying, “Mama! Mama, help! I’m in the screen porch!” 

Panel 2: She scratches at the door. “Mama! Mama I’m trapped! I’m trapped in the screen porch! Mama!” she cries. 

Panel 3: She looks through the glass with her sad, innocent expression. “I see you, Mama! Can’t you hear me? Why won’t you let me in? What have I done, Mama!”

Panel 4: The left corner is dominated by a close up of her face, as she reminisces about the cat tree in the screen porch. We see her perched on the very top, looking out over the backyard.

She says, “Was I not grateful enough, Mama? You gave me a throne, here in the screen porch! A place where I could look down upon the world as a god!”

Page 2

Panel 1: While she’s perched atop her cat tree, it begins to rain outside. Bunny looks askance at it from behind the screen. 

“But I couldn’t touch it, Mama!” she narrates, now in boxes instead of word balloons, “I could see the rain lavish the earth, but never feel its cool caress!”

Panel 2: A paw rests on the screen. On the other side, two birds chirp, unbothered by the presence of Bunny.

 “I could smell the blood of the song birds, but never taste its warmth! I lived as Tantalus in this screen porch, Mama!”

Panel 3: Sitting on a cushioned chair, bunny looks out over the yard, barred from her by the porch screen. 

“Tormented by what I could never reach!” 

Page 3

Panel 1 : Another reminiscence, this time of Bunny running through the open door to the screen porch earlier that day while I was taking out the garbage. 

“And yet I returned, again and again and again! Was that my sin, Mama? Is this my punishment? To be condemned forever to a hell of my own choosing?” 

Panel 2: Returning to the present, Bunny looks up from the otherside of the door, her eyes wide.

“Is this what you call justice, Mama?” She says. “Is this what you call love?” 

Panel 3: From Bunny’s perspective we see me; I am ignoring her, going about my business. She calls out to me, “Answer me, Mama! Mama!”

Panel 4:I glance back at her, unmoved by her cries. “Mama!” she yells. 

Page 4

Panel 1: Pulling out we finally see more of the wall which has the door to the screen porch. Directly beside it is a cat door that goes through the wall, out into the screen porch. Another cat, Bunny’s sister Maggie, is coming through the cat flap with no issue.

 I say, “ Bunny, I know you know how to use the cat door.”

Clawing at the window, tears in her eyes, Bunny screams “MAMA!!”

End ID.

Technoblade: "People are always like 'why does everyone on the server bully TommyInnit?' and then you like look at their first interaction and Tommy's, like, mugging them."

Technoblade: "Every TommyInnit arc is 'oh no not the consequences of my own actions, no'. Who would've thought recklessly provoking the entire server would lead to consequences? Who could've seen this coming?"

Technoblade: "I thought burning down your house would be funny, you can't- it's just a prank. You can't be mad."

Ranboo: "In my defense your honor, it was funny."

Technoblade: "It was HILARIOUS."

Tommy: "Me burning down George's house really led to quite a lot, didn't. Now that I think about it."

Technoblade: "Yeah that really didn't pan out for you."

Tommy: "Yeah, that actually- the reason there's a huge crater over there is just cuz one day I was sat having my pre-stream poo and went 'WHAT do we do that's funny and cool today?'

Ranboo: "Let's have the new guy burn down a house."

This was run on @apolladay and I was just curios how similar or different the aegosexual results will be.

It doesn’t say turned on by a irl person, just in general, so that’s how I voted.

#poll #aegosexuality #aegosexual #depends on if I do it on purpose #if I’m not intentionally intiating it almost never #so once a month or less I suppose #I’m fairly sure I’ve never been turned on by anything happening irl
