A hill I will die on: your build book does not need to be aesthetic and fancy. It needs to be readable, concise, and logically laid out. If you want to make it pretty, go nuts, but it is not an expectation and never has been.
I don't care if a non-disabled person accesses a disability accommodation for the same reason I don't care if a child whose parents are rich gets free lunch at school. We don't need to means test being a kind person. I have better things to do with my time than be a cop over social services.
Sleepy but we persist
This con crunch has hands and itβs winning
I GOT THIS I SWEAR- ahah
Maybeβ¦ maybe I skip the Saturday rehearsal aha (Iβm allowed itβs fine I just feel like I shouldnβt)
Sleepies trying to sabotage
I realized I genuinely miss the community you could form online from sharing an interest.
In years past I met so many people through fire emblem- now people cycle through media so fast itβs so hard to connect
You are cringe and you can be free
What is βcringeβ? Honestly it depends who you ask, but itβs used to shame people for something they like or for being themselves. Saying something is cringe is positioned as maturity, being βtoo coolβ and therefore employing bullying tactics to make others edit or reduce themselves into the mainstream or βnormalβ.
But thatβs not what maturity is Maturity is understanding that βnormalβ is relative. That sports and music are fandoms too. That bullying is a reflection of oneβs own insecurities. Maturity is also understanding that constructing a persona to fit the mainstream is really just a sad waste of your very limited time on this Earth.
So be cringe. Because life is too short for us to bully each other out of our passions and authentic self-expression.
Made something because Iβve been thinking about this a lot, TLDR: lifeβs short, please live your life and allow others to do the same.
You are cringe and you can be free

Otakon 2008: Three Marth cosplayers find each other and spend the entire convention taking pictures together.
My friend and I actually planned to attend together as the same character and happened to run into another one.
I deeply dislike social hierarchy in general (comes with the autism) but lord when I see it start to happen in my hobby spaces??? GET IT AWAY

Here are a list of flowers toxic to cats as a former florist: Lillies, Lily of the Valley, Tulips, Crocusβ, Azaleas, Hyacinths, Iris, Hydrangea, Mums, Amarylis to name a few
There are way more than this, Lillies have so much pollen especially if the stamens are in tact
Aka I tricked my brain into being happier but saying Iβm happy
Like yes, some days are the absolute worst. But Iβve found that not sinking into my misery has made me generally a happier person. does this bug people sometimes? Yes. But I am happier so their misery does not effect me
So something Iβve talked to friends about and also just therapist in general is my mindset on joy. I choose everyday to face things with joy and positivity because I found it did genuinely make me happier. Even when Iβm having the worst day ever or the world is being itself, I try to find the joy
As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read.
They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

Me cosplaying as Mima from Satoshi Kon's movie "Perfect Blue." I'm in a pink ruffled dress sitting on a concrete floor, slouched up against a wall and staring into space. There are old TVs on the wall displaying Cham, the pop idol group from the movie.
"That's funny. Mima is a pop idol... and you're just a dirty old imposter." β¨
