im in such a weird situation with uni work at the minute because im working on my dissertation research proposal about trans people and climate justice for a research methods module and i like. i need to know if the lecturer for this module is transphobic or not? she's an older lady and she's said stuff in class along the lines of "well back in my day we didn't have all these different genders" and stuff so im just. on edge and i don't really know what to do about it because i can't exactly email her like hi are you transphobic or just ignorant but not knowing how much i need to defend trans peoples right to exist in this assignment is very stressful lmao

[ID: Two page comic in color of Vash and Wolfwood from Trigun Maximum. The first page has a black background and the upper half, behind the panels, is splattered with stylized red blood, scattered bullets, and lifeless hands. In the first panel, it focuses on Vash's boots, showing him stepping through the panel and into the bloody scene. The second panel shows his bloody footprints and the third panel shows his face, his down-turned eyes looking downwards. It's a neutral, vague expression with confliction. At the bottom of the page, the back of Wolfwood's head and shoulder is seen, blood dirtying the white color of his shirt and side of his face. Vash's hand reaches out to him from the right side of the page.

The second page shows the entire scene in full, half the page in light and the other in solid black. At the center, Vash leans down onto his knees as he wraps his arms around Wolfwood's shoulders into a hug. Wolfwood's back is turned away from the viewer, his left arm holds onto his bloodied punisher and his right hand sits on his lap. Light casts from the left side of the page, showing the bloodied surrounding, but the held up punisher casts a shadow on the both of them, shielding them from the light. END ID]

I know a sorta made a small post along these lines the other day, but something a lil more official of!!

im kinda broke rn, between the recent stuff with losing my car and having to get a new one and work literally scheduling me 13 hrs a week. Im slowly losing money and it got really bad this month after paying my bills and everything and realizing I had just 300 bucks in my bank account.

My current job hasn't been working with me to give me the hours i need to make a living wage and iv been trying to get a new job for months with no success and it's looking like i could really use a lil extra support via online commission work rn until I can land a more solid paying job. I really hate to sound like a desperate wet cardboard box beast but I still need to insure my new car and cant afford it as i stand right now.

I wont ask for donations, I think im going to be fine, but a lil money to help keep my head above the water would be great so im just gonna promo my commission work. To anyone who can commission me in some way or another would be awesome! I appreciate any support I can get rn even just a reblog

thinking about how one of beidou’s teapot lines is her inviting the traveler on a journey across the sea, and her rough estimate of how long such a voyage will take is about one and a half years.

just imagine being trapped on the alcor for one and a half years with yandere!kazuha, who loves you to the moon and back and cherishes you with the most adoring, suffocating form of love, all while beidou looks on and happily encourages the lovebirds. it’s even better if kazuha has persuaded you to join him on the journey. your first mistake was agreeing, for now you have nowhere to run to when it becomes clear that his love for you is quite unhealthy.

what’s more is that he’s always so polite and kind. you can feel frustrated when his hand entwines with yours when you stand on the deck and gaze at the vastness of the sky above or when he has breakfast prepared for you every morning, but you can’t truly hate him because he never gives you any reason to hate him. he’s pure-hearted in all that he does. he’d never hurt you. he’ll always bestow the loveliest of compliments to you. you’re his love, his muse, his sweetheart. 

even if you’re averse to him for the first months of the journey, you’ll come to accept him eventually. a year and a half is plenty of time to erode the barriers you’ve put up. and soon you might even come to welcome him into your quarters. there’s only so much space on the alcor, after all. kazuha won’t overstep his boundaries, but if you’re too inebriated to make the distinction clear as he guides you back to your room... you’ll wake in his embrace the next morning, and he has diligently looked after and cared for you throughout the night. he hopes you might do the same if he ever gets drunk. though that’s a side he’d rather not show you often. it’s not exactly the most romantic thing in the world if he’s stumbling around or belting out incoherent lines of poetry at the moon.

if you try to escape when the ship finally docks at a port, kazuha will find you. you can’t forget his impeccable sense of smell. he has your scent memorized. it’s practically carved into him at this point. he’s spent more than enough time with you to be able to differentiate your scent in a crowd of hundreds. besides, what are you even escaping from? he’s not monstrous. he’s not frightening. he’s just sweet, compassionate kazuha, a man devoted solely to his beloved.

robots can't feel pain silly (:

gore list here !!

I often think about "Well Camila was motherly to Amity, Gus, and Willow too does that make her their mom too?" Like. Yes??? Do y'all not get how found family works?

Like she was fully willing to raise all of them and I doubt that'll change like do you think that she wouldn't want to meet up with their parents and collaborate with them? She was raising their kids for months, it's kind of similar to a foster parent situation like they all have their biological parents and they are going to return and live with them but I fully believe they all think of Camila as a mother/call her mom?

Not in the way where any of them are Luz's siblings of course (Hunter and her are different imo just cause Luz was sisterly towards Hunter long before Camila was involved anyway) and in Amity's case it's very obviously a situation of "of course you can call me mom, you're dating my daughter/family" like is completely normal for their situation.

But like, with Gus and Willow "Luz's mom" becomes just "mom" and that's natural to them considering neither of them even have mothers so it's not like she's replacing anyone with that title.

Would she legally adopt them? No she has no reason to do that but that doesn't make her less of a mother to them. Eda doesn't legally adopt Luz but she's still Luz's 2nd mom? Luz is still King's sibling?

It's just weird the way that Camila's role in these children's lives is minimized so much that's the whole hexsquad's mom now no take-backsies whether or not they still officially live with her or not is irrelevant.

[Dadrius deniers/haters DNI y'all are annoying, Darius has so much fatherly swag it's unreal.]

my neighbour absolutely thinks i'm a woman and calls me 'she' and whatever but i can't correct her because a) i have no idea whether she knows what a trans person is or whether she'd be okay with that as a concept and b) culturally i don't think she would feel comfortable talking to someone she understood as not being a woman and i am all she's got so. i guess i can be a girl. for her and for her only

reached the point where the pain and discomfort is making me cry so 👍 officially worst pain of my life the doctors were right lol

overcoming anxiety (through practicing the things that scare you) is so interesting. i used to be horrified of taking up space or alerting other people of my presence. now i'm compelled to tell strangers i like their outfits or hair or earrings- on bad days i tell maybe a quarter of them. do i still overthink it? absolutely. but i call attention to myself to tell someone else my opinion. and with the way they tend to smile and tell me "thank you!" i'm pretty sure it's taken to heart.

i used to be horrified of making phone calls as well. this is one i'm still getting over- i just Don't Like Doing It. i used to have a phone call routine that i still joke about- realize i need to call someone, cry, avoid it for a few days, suck it up, write a script, memorize the script, cry again, final script read, make the call with the script in front of me. and i would be Exhausted by the end of it. i don't cry when i need to call people anymore. i'm even needing scripts less and less- i've found out that people actually won't kill me if i talk a little too fast or stumble on my words. i doubt i'll ever like making phone calls- i especially hate robots (i'm afraid they'll mishear me and direct me wrong or a person will suddenly show up and i won't be prepared)- but i can make them now.

i get overwhelmed really easy. just a thing that happens to me. my brain is really really good at taking one task and breaking it up into thousands of little tasks and it feels like i'm drowning. if i try to make it fewer larger tasks then it starts to feel insurmountable. i was completely lost on how to deal with this (other than avoid until you get that panic attack and can do work in the post-catharsis calm until 6:00 AM) until one night when my dad (who i often meet late at night due to overlapping mental illness symptoms) asked me how to eat an elephant. i looked at him, confused, and he said "one bite at a time." that was way more effective than any other analogy i've seen has been. "light at the end of a tunnel"- i don't feel like i'm moving forward, i feel like i'm scaling a wall. "steps on a trail"- i can see my destination, but it feels impossible to move forward. but eating an elephant? that sums it up perfectly. this huge task which seems impossible at a glance. but it must be done. so you eat the elephant, a bite at a time. every time i'm overwhelmed i repeat that phrase to myself. it hasn't made any major changes yet, but it keeps me calm enough to start before i hit the panic attack, which i'll take.

i was such a perfectionist growing up- i actually thought it was a good thing (school always taught me to strive for perfection). but it made me scared to try new things- if i wasn't immediately good at them, then it clearly wasn't for me. i'm still not great at starting new hobbies, but i try a lot of new things within the hobbies i already have. i test out different ways of making art, i try new puzzle games i don't understand, etc. and the feeling of steady improvement reminds me that i don't need to be good right away. some of the most satisfying moments don't come from immediately being good- they come from achieving that skill over time. i'd like to try to learn to sew soon.

idk it's interesting. i rewire my own brain's fear response by doing the Horrifying Thing enough times for me to understand that no i will not die. and while i'm doing it it feels like nothing is changing. i get so stressed every time- it can actually take a lot out of me (turns out fight-or-flight burns a lot of energy). but i look back at then vs. now and i realize how far i've come, and i can't help but think "huh. neat"

debating booking a dentist appointment with a private practice that's got really good reviews that keep mentioning the dentists being really understanding and gentle with patients that have anxiety.

I'm still not sure we can even handle an appointment but at the same time it feels like our wisdom teeth are getting increasingly painful and I'm scared something's gotten infected

Meanwhile Asclepius' look when he is performing a surgery:

Sometimes I think about Steven Universe Malachite discourse and like. wow, people were really killing each other over cartoons, and I witnessed it. And also picked a side.

wouldve been hilarious if todd met bart in s1 because he needs money and she casually owns a shit ton

Lucifer doesn't care how the labcoats say it works; he knows there's no such thing as a clean break from a drift the minute the plug is pulled. Instead, Michael goes from a second consciousness beside his own to being dragged out of Lucifer the further Lucifer gets from him, both of them gripping tight to the connection until it slips, until it snaps, with a violent recoil that knocks Lucifer's brain out of alignment and reminds his legs that they don't work. His next step falls too fast, too heavily, and refuses to take his weight. It's only Michael, now only a voice outside of Lucifer's head yelling his name, catching him from behind that allows Lucifer to collapse to the floor with his dignity intact.

holy jesus christ...

fontaine's act 4 is by far the most stressful act of any archon quest ever

what do you think would be the dynamic between lois and talia if they ever worked together in a professional capacity; lois as the putlitzer-winning journalist that she is and talia as lexcorp ceo?

honestly i only just started reading post-crisis superman so i'm not sure whatever i say would be entirely accurate but i feel like at a base level lois would be incredibly frustrated and annoyed with talia like the levels of deception and withholding of information that talia is mired in bc she doesn't view herself as someone who has to answer to others i think would grate on lois incredibly. not to say there aren't good reasons for it obv we know there are good reasons for it but comparatively lois doesn't. or wouldn't at first. talia's like a really well kept pistachio you have to wrangle her shell a bit to open her up if you're anyone else but bruce. which isn't to say that lois couldn't do it i certainly believe she could, but it would take a lot of time. though i think she'd at the least have an easier time of it than clark bc talia would sooner recognize herself in lois than she would in him
