I made a sprite thing of Ethan wearing big jacket a while back.
Tumblr media
He looks so comfy! Also hey, it's convenient. Sometimes it's what he needs to feel at his peak. Especially at the month thing I mentioned a while back.
I also headcanon that sometimes he messes up doing the laundry, so this jacket might've been red at first.

Using my fictionkins’ names is all fun and games until an rp blog gets annoyed you are using the name of the character their blog is about. Ffs people, it’s not an obscure source so there will be others who use the character’s name, even if they aren’t fictionkin like me.
I am disappointed, as you can tell. It’s happened multiple times now, just let me bask in my identity without being yelled down.
-An annoyed fictionkin
People sometimes think a character belongs to them and only them and get angry when someone who is like the character in a way isn't theirs? That's how I can explain it but yeah. Im not a psychologist or anything

I wanna add my two cents to this.
Teens are not adults... But they are also not children, they are teens, an entire different category.
Don't treat teens like adults, but dON'T TREAT THEM LIKE CHILDREN EITHER.
I PREFER for people to have their ages in their bios because of the controversial content I post sometimes, but I don't block people who don't have their age. Wanna know why? Two reasons.
People LIE. PEOPLE LIE. YOU CAN TYPE ANY NUMBER AND THERE IS NO WAY TO KNOW IF IT'S REAL.
And NO ONE, NO ONE, needs to know ANYTHING about you. No name, no age, no place of residence, of birth, school, nothing.
YOU OWE NO ONE ANY INFORMATION ABOUT YOU.
I'm the first born in my family, I raised my siblings, befriended their friends, helped everyone with their homework, gave them advice, listened to their problems, their traumas, their crushes.
I babysitted and nannied. I took care of my younger cousins, neighbours' kids.
I was bullied by most of my classmates so I hung out with kids from the lower grades a lot, was in extracurriculars with kids much younger. And guess what. Never has anything been creepy. I have the full trust of their parents because, oh my God, who would have thought, being an adult doesn't automatically make you a creep.
Groundbreaking.
Hell, I know there's PLENTY of minors following me. Here and in my other accounts. I was those minors too.
I will never "get rid" of the kids that came to me for conversations about our favorite characers, favorite manga, headcanons, fanfics we like, music we enjoy, hobbies we have.
I will never cut off the kids who trusted me enough to invite me into their life and give me the PRIVILEGE of learning about them and their struggles, and even allowed me to help in any way I could.
I won't abandon the teens that took a risk and told me what was on their minds and welcomed me into being a part of their growth.
If anyone wants to see me as a predator or groomer, go ahead, I know who I am and what my intentions are. I don't give a shit about what you have to say, what I care about is those kids you say you want to protect so bad yet you isolate.

I do not particularly say I’m violent. The reason why I grab the girls hair like it was a fucking ragdoll was because because she was calling me a racist things and also called me a whore so we were in the halls and I saw her and I grabbed her by the hair and kicked her on her knees. It’s not violence it’s self defense.

THIS IS SO OUT OF CONTEXT WHAT!?!?!?

Interlude : pour toi, public
Vous êtes plusieurs à m'avoir demandé : "C'est kantesse que Sexy revient dans l'histoire ?"
Ce qui à la fois me fait ultra plaisir, parce que çà veut dire que j'ai réussi à le faire exister en tant que personnage, dans une intrigue où - on va pas se mentir - c'est clairement pas lui qui fait avancer l'action
(disons qu'il est comme les trous noirs au centre des galaxies : tout tourne autour de lui, mais lui on ne le voit jamais)
et en même temps me chagrine car, mes petits lapins, on reste dans un realityblog, alors je suis bien obligée de vous répondre : "Eh ben... jamais".
Oui, je sais, à moi aussi çà m'a coûté de l'admettre, et c'était à peu près aussi agréable que de m'arracher le bras. Mais maintenant le plus dur est derrière, alors c'est pas le moment de flancher
Tumblr media
non non, on ne fait pas le bilan de sa vie sentimentale, on ne regarde pas en bas, on ne se retourne pas, on avance, on avance, et la sortie c'est par là.
Tumblr media
edit : entre nous, il y a bien une fin alternative à ce blog, dans laquelle Sexy et moi on se marie et on adopte, mais elle est accessible seulement sur abonnement

i do unironically think the best artists of our generation are posting to get 20 notes and 3 reblogs btw. that fanfic with like 45 kudos is some of the best stuff ever written. those OCs you carry around have some of the richest backstories and worldbuilding someone has ever seen. please do not think that reaching only a few people when you post means your art isn't worth celebrating.

looking at (vetted) gofundmes for people trying to escape palestine and i don't know how many of you actually click on the gofundme links you reblog but i would like to point out, for what it's worth, just how amazing it is that so many have raised so much money. it may overall feel like a drop in the ocean but the fact that several gofundmes have raised tens of thousands of dollars is amazing. it is so expensive to leave gaza right now, and people still need money after they escape. but regardless of what propaganda the US, UK, canada, and other western nations are trying to pump out, people across the world are doing what they can to help these people survive. many of them are still very far from their goals (like this one and this one and this one) and some of them are very close to high goals (like this one), and some of them have reached almost double their original goal.
and that's not even addressing direct aid or organizations that take continuous donations for distribution of food, menstrual products, etc. the PCRF has raised $16,000,000 of their target goal of $20,000,000 to fund current aid and long-term relief efforts in gaza. ANERA's febuary 13th update discusses the material ways they helped palestinians today:
Tumblr media
(ANERA donate link)
my point is, it often feels like the world is turning a blind eye to palestine. but i would like to point out that there is an important difference between "the world" and "western political leaders and media narratives". a breathtaking amount of real people, the people who make up the world, are trying to help. in the face of israel attempting to commit genocide, the world is saying No. These people deserve to live. and literally sending millions of dollars internationally, through the internet connection that israel has desperately been trying to destroy.
it may not feel like it matters in the grand scheme of things. but to the people who get fresh clothes, or a hot meal, or blankets, or the kids who get new toys, or to the people who are able to bring their families to safety, it matters to them. go make someone's day better. i've linked so many options with ways to do that.

I was meeting a client at a famous museum’s lounge for lunch (fancy, I know) and had an hour to kill afterwards so I joined the first random docent tour I could find. The woman who took us around was a great-grandmother from the Bronx “back when that was nothing to brag about” and she was doing a talk on alternative mediums within art.
What I thought that meant: telling us about unique sculpture materials and paint mixtures.
What that actually meant: an 84yo woman gingerly holding a beautifully beaded and embroidered dress (apparently from Ukraine and at least 200 years old) and, with tears in her eyes, showing how each individual thread was spun by hand and weaved into place on a cottage floor loom, with bright blue silk embroidery thread and hand-blown beads intricately piercing the work of other labor for days upon days, as the labor of a dozen talented people came together to make something so beautiful for a village girl’s wedding day.
What it also meant: in 1948, a young girl lived in a cramped tenement-like third floor apartment in Manhattan, with a father who had just joined them after not having been allowed to escape through Poland with his pregnant wife nine years earlier. She sits in her father’s lap and watches with wide, quiet eyes as her mother’s deft hands fly across fabric with bright blue silk thread (echoing hands from over a century years earlier). Thread that her mother had salvaged from white embroidery scraps at the tailor’s shop where she worked and spent the last few days carefully dying in the kitchen sink and drying on the roof.
The dress is in the traditional Hungarian fashion and is folded across her mother’s lap: her mother doesn’t had a pattern, but she doesn’t need one to make her daughter’s dress for the fifth grade dance. The dress would end up differing significantly from the pure white, petticoated first communion dresses worn by her daughter’s majority-Catholic classmates, but the young girl would love it all the more for its uniqueness and bright blue thread.
And now, that same young girl (and maybe also the villager from 19th century Ukraine) stands in front of us, trying not to clutch the old fabric too hard as her voice shakes with the emotion of all the love and humanity that is poured into the labor of art. The village girl and the girl in the Bronx were very different people: different centuries, different religions, different ages, and different continents. But the love in the stitches and beads on their dresses was the same. And she tells us that when we look at the labor of art, we don’t just see the work to create that piece - we see the labor of our own creations and the creations of others for us, and the value in something so seemingly frivolous.
But, maybe more importantly, she says that we only admire this piece in a museum because it happened to survive the love of the wearer and those who owned it afterwards, but there have been quite literally billions of small, quiet works of art in billions of small, quiet homes all over the world, for millennia. That your grandmother’s quilt is used as a picnic blanket just as Van Gogh’s works hung in his poor friends’ hallways. That your father’s hand-painted model plane sets are displayed in your parents’ livingroom as Grecian vases are displayed in museums. That your older sister’s engineering drawings in a steady, fine-lined hand are akin to Da Vinci’s scribbles of flying machines.
I don’t think there’s any dramatic conclusions to be drawn from these thoughts - they’ve been echoed by thousands of other people across the centuries. However, if you ever feel bad for spending all of your time sewing, knitting, drawing, building lego sets, or whatever else - especially if you feel like you have to somehow monetize or show off your work online to justify your labor - please know that there’s an 84yo museum docent in the Bronx who would cry simply at the thought of you spending so much effort to quietly create something that’s beautiful to you.

because sometimes there are invisible tests and invisible rules and you're just supposed to ... know the rule. someone you thought of as a friend asks you for book recommendations, so you give her a list of like 30 books, each with a brief blurb and why you like it. later, you find out she screenshotted the list and send it out to a group chat with the note: what an absolute freak can you believe this. you saw the responses: emojis where people are rolling over laughing. too much and obsessive and actually kind of creepy in the comments. you thought you'd been doing the right thing. she'd asked, right? an invisible rule: this is what happens when you get too excited.
you aren't supposed to laugh at your own jokes, so you don't, but then you're too serious. you're not supposed to be too loud, but then people say you're too quiet. you aren't supposed to get passionate about things, but then you're shy, boring. you aren't supposed to talk too much, but then people are mad when you're not good at replying.
you fold yourself into a prettier paper crane. since you never know what is "selfish" and what is "charity," you give yourself over, fully. you'd rather be empty and over-generous - you'd rather eat your own boundaries than have even one person believe that you're mean. since you don't know what the thing is that will make them hate you, you simply scrub yourself clean of any form of roughness. if you are perfect and smiling and funny, they can love you. if you are always there for them and never admit what's happening and never mention your past and never make them uncomfortable - you can make up for it. you can earn it.
don't fuck up. they're all testing you, always. they're tolerating you. whatever secret club happened, over a summer somewhere - during some activity you didn't get to attend - everyone else just... figured it out. like they got some kind of award or examination that allowed them to know how-to-be-normal. how to fit. and for the rest of your life, you've been playing catch-up. you've been trying to prove that - haha! you get it! that the joke they're telling, the people they are, the manual they got- yeah, you've totally read it.
if you can just divide yourself in two - the lovable one, and the one that is you - you can do this. you can walk the line. they can laugh and accept you. if you are always-balanced, never burdensome, a delight to have in class, champagne and glittering and never gawky or florescent or god-forbid cringe: you can get away with it.
you stare at your therapist, whom you can make jokes with, and who laughs at your jokes, because you are so fucking good at people-pleasing. you smile at her, and she asks you how you're doing, and you automatically say i'm good, thanks, how are you? while the answer swims somewhere in your little lizard brain:
how long have you been doing this now? mastering the art of your body and mind like you're piloting a puppet. has it worked? what do you mean that all you feel is... just exhausted. pick yourself up, the tightrope has no net. after all, you're cheating, somehow, but nobody seems to know you actually flunked the test. it's working!
aren't you happy yet?
