explained to an 8 year old that once a fruit is ripe you only have so much time until it rots so you have to eat it soon and she said so i'll never be able to keep it perfect like this forever? no and there are about a million pieces of art for you unrelatedly
the best death note joke format will forever be L asking light a simple question in which logical answer A might increase the likelihood of light being kira and logical answer B similarly might increase the likelihood of light being kira and after a short internal struggle light comes up with answer Y, which no human being has ever thought of as being a normal response in all of living history
free use is kind of a funny kink bc it relies on the idea that everybody wants to touch you and have sex with you but what if they don't. what if you tell everybody at the party you're free use but they all ignore you and mind their own business
part 1 of many (i say modern but its late 90s/y2k)
sasu naru and saku come from a small town in japan. for the longest time all they had was each other before moving to the big city.
jiraiya and tsunade are naruto's biological (paternal) grandparents. his parents died because of a natural disaster. they were both scientists/meteorologists. minato was basically like steve irwin </3
the town he lives in is abundant in frogs and woodland creatures. his parents often took him on small excursions to the surrounding forests and used to talk to him all about the frogs/toads and the ecosystem. naruto had always been fascinated and wanted to learn more about the natural world.
they also have a kai ken (dog) named kurama.
when tsu had a job opportunity come along in a big hospital in osaka, the lot moved there. jir doesn't care because he's a published author so moving is nbd. sak and sas vowed they'd follow and meet again at university. 3 years and one million exchanged letters later they're together again as promised.
since his youth, jiraiya has a kanji tattoo for 'oil' on his shoulder. his parents (fukasaku and shima) were herbalists and made all kinds of oils. jiraiya had carried on the family tradition for a while, published a book or two on natural medicine, before pursuing storytelling.
and so. naruto had always loved the idea of a tattoo and representing something in a meaningful way on your body FOREVER. during those 3 years naruto has gotten 4 tattoos: the seal (a tornado and scale readings) to represent his parents, cherry blossom for sakura, the tomoe for sasuke, and kurama's paw.
when they meet again and sakura sees them, she proceeds to have the biggest crashout on that side of earth like
"DONT U KNOW IN THIS 1998 STUDY IT SAID THAT TATTOOS CAUSE CANCER AND YOU ALREADY HAVE 4 ?? WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO YOURSELF IM SO SCARED FOR YOU"
and he's all "but look!!! it's you!!" (points to cherry blossom)
sakura just breaks down like "thats really sweet but you’re gonna die 😭💔"
all the while, sasuke is nudging naruto like "hey where did you get those can i get one they look cool i want one where can i get one"
(guy who isnt beating the ocd voice) i know! maybe if i spend all night ruminating on something i feel guilty about until i’ve considered it from every possible angle and made myself physically ill, then i can finally forgive myself and i’ll feel better! 99% of morally abhorrent people stop self punishing right before they’re Absolved
hi this tag is making me insane. OCD treatment and recovery are notoriously difficult because you have to give up all of your comforts and accommodations you've created, to actually lay the beast bare. i often say "the only way out of OCD is through" but i think this tag is far more evocative of what it actually feels like to find the strength within you to face recovery.
