Being aromantic isn't like being colourblind because you "have a narrower human experience π’" or "you see the world in black and white π" or whatever but being aromantic is exactly like being colourblind because most people don't even know what it is and most people who think they do have the complete wrong idea. Because our society is not designed for people like us but no "allies" take our issues seriously. Because I'm still not even sure if people want us in their communities. Because whenever you tell someone you know you're going to be asked the same stupid questions. Because people in fandom love to use you as a cool quirk to add to characters without respecting what it actually means. Because my life would be marginally better if everyone spent just 5 minutes reading about it on google. But hey it's not all negative you also get a unique outlook on life and an appreciation for beauty outside the norm.

I'm not fully educated on Trump's policies, but I know their bad enough to want to end it all and was very close to as soon as I heard the news.
But we can't. We can't let him win like this. To everyone affected by this stale cheeto's win, stay alive. Do it out of spite if you need to. Just keep going. These might be 4 years of hell, but we need to keep going. Listen to me, it'll all be ok in the end, I promise you that. All my queer friends, the fellow people who aren't the best mentally, and everyone who will be affected by this, please for the love of everything, Keep. Going.
I'll be here if anyone needs to talk, I love you all.
It'll all get better friends.

Did I unexpectedly tear up when reading this? Yes, yes I did.

If it was not clear already by my very existence, i am a moron
This happened like last month but i forgot abt it until just now so whatever
For some context, im allergic to walnuts and almonds and i am lactose intolerant. Ive never had walnuts and my family never buys anything that has them in them, however we have some things that contain almonds and lactose in them. I am also left home by myself a lot
Now, you could probably tell where this is going, but one day i was by myself because i came home from school and i got bored.
Whenever i get bored it is not a good thing i always do something stupid
My mom had bought almond butter dates the day before. So like a totally normal human, i thought "hey, ykw im bored, lets see if im still allergic to almonds!!" (Spoiler alert: i am.)
So i had some, and while i didnt have that bad of an allergic reaction my throat was still very itchy and my chest hurt a little. And so in order to try to make my throat less itchy, i tried drinking milk which, obviously, made it worse
I should also mention we dont have epipens nor do i know how to use one, my parents just never got any
So tl;dr (idk if its long enough to warrant this but i dont really care) I was home alone, eating stuff im allergic to, with no way to stop any reaction if it happened bc im just soo smart
I like to think that my fav is simply looking out for my wellbeing :)
I come bearing bidoofs.
I have finished the rest of the main 12 participants
Ill start on the dummies + (possibly) megumi in like an hr or smth
So i was scrolling through my gallery and i just remembered this one project i had and never finished
It was made purely to annoy one of my friends and i was supposed to do more for it but i lost motivation, it was supposed to be all the characters and it was going to be like a trailer with some cgs done too (i was bored on some random tuesday over the summer)
Anyways i give you, your turn to bidoof (last image is a slight spoiler for the end of chapter 1-2 ig):
I had a vision.
If anyone wants ill actually finish this
hey, I know these are just words on your screen, but I really want you to know that everything is going to be okay. life is weird, brains are weird, and it seems like everything is just overwhelming. all the time.
no matter how hectic things get around you, I know that you'll be okay. things will get easier, and all of these things stressing you out will be so much easier to manage as time goes on. you're capable of pushing through any hurdles you might face because I know you've already made it to the point you are at today, and even though everyone acts like living day to day is easy, I know that it's incredibly difficult to do.
take things easy, you are loved, and everything is going to be all right
the story of kfc fucks me up man. the colonel founded this gas station that expanded to restaurant, the chicken at the restaurant gets popular, makes KFC, it gets big and he sells it to a corporation for a lot of money. realizes he got sorta scammed out of the true worth of kfc so tries to get more money and they refuse and the courts side against him. then he starts a new chicken restaurant claiming the corporate people were not making chicken to his standards and kfc sued him because kfc owned the colonel's likeness and the courts agreed. a corporation owned this man's name and appearance. he wasnt allowed to use either, thus legally erasing his reputation making it harder for him to get taken seriously in any food venture. the man, to the day he died, was going into kfc's and throwing fits because the food had fallen into such bad shape he hated it was associated with him. and it's like, whether he's a bad man or a good man or whatever, a corporation owned his identity, stopped him from using his reputation and identity in other businesses, and refused to acknowledge his outrage that they changed his recipes and still attributed it to him. this is literally the obnoxious plot of a jay and silent bob movie, but it was this dude's real life. what the fuck.
