#me being cranky
Text
Sometimes I see someone describe a book/thing as 'character-driven' and I recognise it/go check it out and go 'bitch, what characters? Those bland cardboard cutouts who get bounced around by the plot?'
I'm seriously confused by your definition here
#books#bookish#bookblr#character focus#character driven#me being cranky#but also utterly confused and horrified#just because one character is hashtag relateable or quirky doesnt mean the whole thing is character driven#especially when they have zero growth or agency#and i say this as a person who loves character driven stuff because i keep getting completely terrible recs for it#looking at you murderbot

Event?????
1 or 7, domestic style fluff with my favorite eel?? ♡♡ (it's Floyd of course)
I leave romance vs platonic up to you, gn reader so everyone can enjoy as well :)
Can't wait to see what younc9me up with!!! If you need any help or ideas come bug me, floyd sits in my head constantly like a very annoying song
Warm Mornings; Floyd Leech
Content; Fluff, gender-neutral reader, romance
Content Warning; Some swearing
Word Count; 700+
Author's Note; Who needs a weighted blanket when you have a Floyd? I am here to deliver soft Floyd(TM) hours! (he also sits in my head constantly; the song is the low-quality Funky Town)
Even when Floyd was dead asleep, he squeezed you, and that was your situation now. You were lying on top of him, and he had you in a comfortable yet strong bear hug. Just tight enough that you couldn’t wiggle free from him. And it was normally fine, but last night someone had left the window open and now it was warm and humid in the room, making you feel sticky.
“Floyd,” you whispered, trying to wake him up gently.
A gentle snore was your answer. You should have expected that though, he sleeps like a damn log.
You tried wiggling around a bit, but Floyd just hugged you tighter on unconscious instinct and rolled over, trapping you under him. Yeah, you were officially stuck. “Floydddd,” you groaned, poking him right above his hips. “You’re crushing me.”
Usually he would wake up by you repeatedly poking him, but he was out cold, he only just shifted, trapping your face where one cheek was pressing against the mattress, and the other was smushed up against his chest. Normally, you wouldn’t complain about this situation, but it was grossly warm. You were also too far away from your usual ‘escape the crushing weight of my dearly beloved eel route’, which was just tickling his legs and feet. Too bad your arms were pretty much pinned against the bed.
“Floyd, get off me,” you grumbled, squirming around like a worm on a hook.
Still nothing.
Sighing, you accept your fate. Besides the humidity, it was rather nice. Sure, you couldn’t make out the crashing of the waves on the beach, the steady beat of Floyd’s heart was right up against your ear, and it was slow and steady.
Slow and steady, not two words many people would associate with Floyd. It was a calmer side that only you got to see; when you were overwhelmed, or when he was feeling soft. Yes, he was usually a bundle of energy, but even he had his quiet moments. Within the hurricane, there was always the eye, where things remained still, despite the wild winds outside.
“Mmm,” Floyd groaned, the first sign of life you’ve seen since you’d been sandwiched.
He slowly blinked his eyes, working out the sleep from them, and tilted his head down so he could actually see you, since you were still stuck between his chest and the mattress. “Heh heh, I caught a Shrimpy in my sleep!~” He drawled, voice chipper but still heavy from sleep.
“Yes, yes you did. Can you please get off though, it’s gross out,” you groaned. At least he was cute, which the wild bed head only played in his favour. How can he look so good in the morning? Maybe it’s a mer thing… “Floyd?”
He hadn’t moved, and was instead giving you a wide grin. “Hmm, maybe I should’ve called you Crabby instead of Shrimpy, Shrimpy,” he pinched your cheeks teasingly, “since you look pretty crabby right now.”
You rolled your eyes, “And maybe I should use that mushroom risotto recipe that Jade gave me for our dinner tonight. But that’s only if you don’t get off.”
Floyd narrowed his eyes at you, trying to make out if you were bluffing or not, since last time you were dead serious and did exactly that. But he rolled off of you, grumbling a bit. “Meanie,” he muttered.
You shuffled over to where he was dramatically splayed out, his head slightly turned to you, and giving you puppy dog eyes. Chuckling, you kissed him on the lips, as that is what he was being dramatic about.
Giggling, he captured you in his arms yet again, and trapped you against the mattress for a second time this morning. He was giving you a shit eating smile. You weren’t leaving this bed until he had his share of kisses.
“Floydddd,” you groaned, but you weren’t annoyed with him, if anything, you were amused. There was never a dull moment with him around.
“Shrimpyyyyyy,” he mimicked your voice with a more prominent whine. “You know the drill!~”
Sighing, you ran your hands up through his messy hair, and brought your lips together, deeper this time. You knew the drill; neither of you were getting up until both of your lips were tired, sore, and most likely bitten… which may not be for a while.

Funny how it's not mentioned once in the books that Sirius's eyes are grey, but god forbid you make them any other color, meanwhile I can point you to several places in the text where it says "Sirius is tall" and everyone insists that he's short actually.

Hades Game 1 use of heavy black lines/areas... You live fondly in my memory...
#don't get me wrong the game looks gorgeous and i'll be happy to play#but..... the portraits look kind of duller to me...#everyone looks a little more similar ? kind of the same poses/tones ? i don't know ! i find they have less personality !#anyway ignore me being a cranky old man#i will do my part by making everyone tanner and stockier and give [REDACTED] a well-deserved beard#text post

contrary to popular belief, the “t” in “tsams” does not actually stand for “the”, it stands for “transgender”! hope this helps 💜
#xero says things#SORRYYYY i’m thinking about eclipse again and the inherently trans metaphor of waking up with a voice and body that isn’t yours-#-and never inhabiting a body that is truly /you/ and staying that way until you die.#his ass just never transitioned that’s why he was so cranky 💔 /j /j#i have thoughts about the others characters too but eclipse feels more raw to me HAHA#lunar and bloodmoon with their old nano-bodies that allowed them to shapeshift#sun being called an actress in the april fools video#monty being outright genderfluid/transfem#earth.#etc etc etc AHAJQBS#everyone here is some kinda genderqueer 2 me#sun and moon show#the sun and moon show#tsams

I think in the next Animal Crossing, you should have to earn your control over the environment. And I don’t just mean working to get terraforming, I mean, like, earning it before getting to decide where other people’s homes are and stuff.
Idk, the deserted island is fun but I kind of hope in the next one we’re back to being a new face in an already established rural community. And you can still progress to moving absolutely everything on the map and decorating each square foot and flower to your liking, but, like… these other people have lives of their own.
I like knowing a rando isn’t gonna move onto my carefully curated flowerbed and ruin my path, but I don’t like how much the villagers in ACNH feel like fashion accessories rather than neighbors.
#timemachine wuz here#acnh#animal crossing#also Isabelle should be mayor#also I know I said this before the last game but we should get to choose a biome#and maybe even change the biome later idc#it’s not that I am opposed to godlike control of town aesthetics#I miss being able to choose themes for public buildings like let me redesign town hall cowards#it’s that I don’t want the villagers to be just another piece of furniture#I want them to feel individual and relationships with them to matter#like in new leaf you had to have a good relationship with villagers before they’d request a public works project#so if you wanted to decorate your town you had to befriend your neighbors#and certain requests would only come from certain personalities#so you had to get to know ALL your neighbors#which gave you the reward or breaking through a cranky or snooty’s shell and seeing their dialogue change#not like the crafting recipes which might be personality locked but they’ll just give it to you#idk I just want to feel more cozy again. less Instagram more strange comedic zen garden with animal friends y’know?

gurathin, thiago, indah...starting to get the sense that if murderbot didn't have any specific person playing the role of "someone i deep down respect who i'm convinced hates me" at any given time, presaux would have to assign someone, for enrichment purposes
#murderbot#the murderbot diaries#mb needs an anti-support human. like instead of a service dog it has a human that frowns at it sometimes#and it interprets these frowns as 'oh i guess this human just HATES ME. i guess we're ENEMIES. but WHATEVER I'M FINE WITH IT'#even though that's just what this human's face does when they're thinking really hard or something#like i'm rereading network effect and every time mb is cranky about thiago not liking it i'm like. babe you are reading way into it#he's skeptical. you love skepticism! he does not hate you he's just being cautious#in some ways quite similar to you really#'thiago doesn't trust me. how DARE HE' babe we have been here before#that's exactly what you said about gurathin!#i mean is he an asshole? yes. but so are you and so is your best mutual administrative assistant. you love assholery#i just think it's funny that 1) mb trusts no one until it knows them really well and 2) mb is SO OFFENDED when people who don't know it#super well don't trust it fully and implicitly right off the bat#my posts#f#well it's christmas and i don't have anywhere to be today because my family stuff is on monday this year. so i am very bored#you know what that means. deep dive into the drafts#also probably trying to find an ask meme to reblog#this draft is from july i think

Me: I fucking hate everything I don’t get why I’m even alive it’s so pointless I don’t even do anything anymore because my body is breaking down so much that I can barely leave my bed, WHY would anyone want me I can’t deal with this anymore I don’t even know what’s wrong with me I can’t do anything without fucking up im literally the worst person to ever exist i really should just die
*pain medicine kicks in*
Me: oh.
#personal#it was never that serious#chronic illness#arthritis#disabled#scoliosis#chronic pain#ehlers danlos syndrome#yeah pain makes you a little cranky doesn’t it#I forget that and then my brain goes from zero to one hundred because of my bpd it’s so hard to control#but I NEVER accept pain as an excuse to be mean to those around me and apologize immediately if I find myself being snappy#it’s no one’s fault and they overall genuinely want to help me#but I still go 👹 each time it gets too much and the pain dragon 🐉 just unleashes#so I usually tell people I need some quiet time because oh lord#cw suicide

rly not a fan of ppl imposing their idea of fun on me under the assumption that it's also my idea of fun
#vent cw#so my bday was a while ago already#my stepmom and my dad didnt get me anything which is fine bc i didnt really want anything#but my stepmom is now being rly pushy like 'what do u want for ur bday'#and im like not rly anything. but going out to dinner would be nice. to this place where they have this dish i like#and so instead of taking me out. she buys all of the ingredients and says 'we're gonna cook it from scratch <3 it'll be fun and then you'll#know how to make it'#and im like ok but dude i have a bunch of stuff to do for school and work and i dont have time to cook this from scratch and then do dishes#to clean up after this like. dsfkjsdkfj#like i need to wake up at 3am for work and i needed the whole day to study for a quiz and prep for a big day at work. i just#why would u ask me what i want to do for my birthday and then decide no i dont want to do that. so we'll do this instead#IM JUST REALLY BUSY AND CRANKY I DONT KNOW

If you didn't want a toxic codependent and clingy found family, then you shouldn't have paid attention and cared for us, toxic people
#idolish7#specifically zool#specifically minami haruka and torao @ toma#note's notes#fandom spamdom#no cause its SO funny that toma is so hilariously kind and defeated and is winning over these horrible individuals#im still pretty early on so theyre not being clingy towards toma yet but i can just see that these mentally unwell zool boys...#...will eventually be SO possessive and clingy for their cranky leader#gotta love how i7 shows re:vale and i7 and trigger becoming healthier individuals while zool becomes worse but in a domestic way#also tagging this as#orv#omniscient reader's viewpoint#because honestly? it is to me

this is gonna sound whiny but nonbinary ppl can immediately tell when u just see them as their agab jsyk👍 its just frustrating 2 b surrounded by other queer ppl and even in those communities without fail if i make any comment abt period cramps or having worked in childcare or shit like that theres an Immediate shift to like oh okay ur actually a Girl got it . like . there was anothr nonbinary person i used 2 kno who had zero problem using the right pronouns for me until they heard how high my voice was on a call once ☠️
#this isnt targeted its just a vent#idk its just annoying. like i can get away w painting my nails but i feel like thats bc#its trendy in niche communities now for cis boys to do it#and i hate feeling like my masculinity is constantly being stacked next to like . the pillars of cis man and cis woman#like . idk im probably not articulating this v well#like . especially as somebody who thinks of themselves as transmasc but doesnt want top surgery its annoying bc that alone#means i lose legitimacy 2 some of the queer ppl i try 2 talk 2 abt gender stuff with#and beyond that#the stupidass responses ive gotten to telling ppl i dont ever rlly plan on coming out to my family#like girl.... i cannot be the first person uve met who doesnt have a safe or comfortable environment to be transgender jn????#and beyond that i dont think its that big a deal that i dont ever come out like . officially#the ppl i care abt know and they see me the way i want so thats enough for me#but in like . largely lgbt online spaces thats where it gets frustrating#like we r supposed 2 b beyond defining gender solely on stereotypes and tit size#tw transphobia#like not rlly but jic it makes anybody uncomfy#thank u that is all#SORRY FOR BEIN CRANKY FIRST THING IN THE MORNING 😵😵 love and light etc#its not like a huge deal either its just smth that gets frustrating specifically in spaces full of ppl that u have some expectations#of understanding from#sorry if this is like complete nonsense LOL

Having ADHD but only having it just enough to get the like 2 symptoms left out of every conversation about ADHD fills me with an apathy that has no practical solution. Rolling up to the ADHD conversation like "Some days I can't focus and everything pisses me off and the best I can do is lay on the floor with music on and scowl at the ceiling until it stops because if I don't then I'll be mean to other people because I have no patience when I get like that" just makes everyone side-eye you because they immediately jump to the conclusion that you want to commit unspeakable acts of violence.
But a lot of people don't know that this is something people with ADHD can experience. The only time I ever see it mentioned is when I go out of my way to find research on it...
#textpost#I'm actually in a really good mood right now and had a really good day but I've been thinking about this for a while#Like I've been to a behavioral specialist this IS ADHD albeit a milder form of it but NO ONE ever talks about the Grumpy Threshold™️-#-in conversations about ADHD. It's always about how it makes people loud and easily excitable#Which are also symptoms of ADHD and I recognize that those symptoms are significantly more common than the main ones I experience#But it would be nice if there was more awareness about the cranky side of it lol#It doesn't make me physically violent or an absolute asshole it's just like being annoyed by everything cranked up to 11#Turbo grumpy. Low heat simmering frustration#Wellbutrin's helped a lot and I've figured out most of the things that causes it so I can avoid them#(shrill sounds/voices and ASMR are two big ones. *Especially* ASMR)#But some days I wake up and my brain chooses anger and there's nothing I can do about it besides ride it out rofl#Anyway thank you for coming to my TED Talk I have to go to sleep now good night

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I fucking hate how the pandemic has turned Germs into a fucking political debate. Masking isn't a trend! It's not a social statement! It isn't about fitting into society and being normal and doing what everyone else does!
Pathogens aren't going to go "oh, I was going to infect people but silly me! It's weird to wear masks now, because society decided masks are stupid, so I'll just wait until masks are socially acceptable again before being contagious."
It's a fucking pathogen! It's powered by statistics and the better it is as infecting people, the more people will infect, and it's seriously just a boring viscious circle. It isn't complicated or tricky! It isn't hard to understand!
If you wanna go out and rawdog the air during a viral global pandemic then you're an asshole for not caring about other people; and if you think it's rude for me to ask you to wear a mask then please consider this: it is FAR more rude to fucking risk my health!
#Can you tell my doctor is ignoring me and not refiling my fibromyalgia medicine? im cranky and i feel ill and i feel like i am bruised all#over my body and im not wasting my energy being nice about this right now!#sorenhoots

whoever sent the hanukkah anon thank you it genuinely warms my heart because normally the response is negative whenever i talk about judaism in the context of hetalia characters.
i would love to be able to make headcanons and art of my favorite characters partaking my culture but unfortunately this fandom is so fucking hostile to me at every turn.
#me drawing hetalia characters celebrating hanukkah is truly not that deep#why are we allowed and expected to draw them celebrating christmas or halloween or what have you but when i do it with a holiday#that i ACTUALLY CELEBRATE its insensitive and it needs to be ‘thought about carefully’ even though jewish people exist all over the world#anyway#im just being cranky right now because i couldn’t get candles for my menorah so i won’t have enough for all 8 nights#rayanne rambles
