-this blog is not 18+, i don't mind minors following me, though some questionable memes may be reblogged sometimes. please read below the cut for what i tag for that!
-i don't have a dni because i just block people instead. however, i don't tolerate transphobia and transmisogyny, aphobia, racism, antisemitism, fatphobia, and the like. free palestine. i also simply block people who i just don't want interacting with me for any various reasons.
-my lovely fiancée is @jessicameleon and should go check her out!!! 💜💕💜💕
-my ask box is open if you need things to be tagged! i will do my best to tag them
-i have a side blog, @art-thallea for my artwork!
tags i use are below the cut!
TAGS I USE
-notsfw/notsfw text: for funny text posts or memes that may contain sexual or otherwise not sfw themes, but may be hard to discern from a distance.
-skylar talks: my personal posts! okay to reblog unless stated otherwise in the tags
-ask to tag: i'm unsure what to tag it, ask if you want it tagged
-fave: hall of fame posts, probably made me laugh harder than it should have
-happy tag: self explanatory. stuff that made me laugh or happy that i would come back to on a sad day
-(animal/character/thing) tag: pictures/posts relating to something i really like, like elephants and rocks! (disclaimer: the snail tag often contains snail-adjacent creatures for simplicity)
-ref: a post i wanna come back to later, usually for art inspiration
i also tag food, flashing lights, arachnophobia, and other common triggers/fears. those will just be tagged with the associated name! (i.e. food, insects, spiders, etc.)
the rest of the tags i use are also pretty self explanatory!
the grim reality for a lot of nonbinary people is that their options are closet themselves and be perpetually misunderstood by the world at large or be out and proud and be perpetually misunderstood by the world at large
does that suck, mark? is it not fun to have your privacy violated? do you feel uncomfortable with people knowing things about you that you'd rather they not know? tell me more about how much you value your security and privacy, mark.
what people don’t understand about how adhd is disabling is that it’s not just getting temporarily distracted from, like, school work or hobbies. it’s getting distracted/being unable to motivate yourself to go to the doctor, eat regularly, do hygiene tasks, etc. it’s not knowing when or how long it will take you to do something, ANYTHING, and in many cases that thing is taking a shower or keeping your house from turning into a biohazard. it’s about being fundamentally incapable of controlling your attention and focus on anything, even and especially things you need to do to survive.
“If you promise to stay alive just a little bit longer I promise that we are going to make this world a place worth living in by any means necessary. I ain’t giving up. I swear.”
i know the way people talk about their pets now is probably how we’ve been doing it for all of history. a cat owner in ancient rome saw their cat lounging on the dining pillows and commented “he thinks himself to be the senator claudius 🤣”
oh, i am finally old enough to know why my parents took so long to grab their coats. why they would ask us to get ready to go only to sit down for another round of coffee. what would i tell myself, at 10 years old? it’s okay. sit down with them too. take in the extra hour with your friend and her family. when you get home, write down every moment in your diary. one day you will be older and you will be waving goodbye to your best friend, and you will turn the key to start your beat up little car engine, and you will look back over your shoulder. her hair will be blowing in the wind and she will be beautiful and you will be, for a moment, struck by all of it. what you will feel is so wide and nameless that it will engulf you. and you will think of being 14 and kicking her under the table in math every time you wanted to whisper something behind the teacher’s back. you will think about how long the days felt, and how you could hold her hand whenever you wished, but you didn’t. and you will think about all of the people you could have lingered with. and you will wish, more than you have ever felt a wish, that the universe just gave you that - more time to linger. more time to say - i love you. i know i need to leave, but i don’t want to leave you. and when i go, i am leaving a piece of my heart that lingers too.
one more round of coffee. the days are so short, and you are so lovely.
“The number of hours we have together is actually not so large. Please linger near the door uncomfortably instead of just leaving. Please forget your scarf in my life and come back later for it.” (mikko harvey)
