I miss the south so bad. I haven't been able to go back in years because of family shit and the political landscape, but I miss it so bad. I haven't been back to Georgia since before I was in middle school, even longer since I went back to Tennessee or Virginia and I miss it so bad. I want to go back so desperately but I can't and it's awful. I haven't even been in the US in years, but recently I just want to be back how it used to be.
Basically all my friends have just decided to be chill with the guy who stalked me. Like making plans with him and shit, as if they aren't fully aware that he chased me down hallways and would try to show up at my house and was creepily touchy all the time and made me feel terrified to even go online in case he saw. They've all just decided none of that matters, I guess?? I feel like I am losing my mind, I hate it so fucking much. Does it just not matter? I am still dealing with all this but because he isn't an active threat and isn't actively obsessing over me I guess they just think he's completely normal now and what he did doesn't matter??
I don't know if I'm insane for thinking this or if this is just something I think, but honestly the Life is Strange fandom hates Nathan more than he deserves. Maybe I'm just on a very specific side of the internet where people forget the nuance of his character, or maybe this is a widely held idea, but genuinely as awful as he is, half of the things people hate him for don't really add up.
I haven't played the original game since I was like 14, so I could be misremembering, but Nathan was a kid who was being drugged out of his mind by his parents for years, who found comfort in his photography teacher who seemed like a good role model, and he was then groomed into drugging girls for this guy to take his weird ass pictures. Obviously the drugging and the murder is wrong but at the same time there's so much nuance to him??? Like, the second he was coherent enough to process what was happening, he called Max to warn her about Jefferson and got himself killed over it, and Rachel was someone he considered a friend, who he had to carry the grief of her death alone for ages. And I'm not defending him for a lot of the shit he does, everything with Kate and Chloe was fucked up and he definitely isn't innocent, but he was still a kid being punished for things he couldn't control and finding comfort in the wrong places.
I'm not saying anyone should have to like him, and I can understand why people hate him, but mindless hate without acknowledging the things that led him to be the way he was bothers me so much.
THIS IS NOT AN ATTEMPT TO DEFEND HIM OR WRITE OFF WHAT ALL THE OTHER CHARACTERS SUFFERED BECAUSE OF HIM OR PRETEND HE WAS INNOCENT, I JUST WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE NUANCE OF THE CHARACTER.
Maybe I'm crazy, but if a student with an incredibly high grade average who has never scored lower than a 90% on any assignment suddenly submits work that is far lower quality than their usual work and attach a note explaining that their chronic health condition that they are very open about made the work near impossible to complete, you should maybe talk to the student instead of grading them harshly and docking points for the note not being "proper writing style"?????? Am I crazy for thinking this????
I've been doing the makeup and costuming for a local play which has a cast consisting of 14-17 year old kids, and they are so sweet, and absolutely amazing actors, but holy shit they are too comfortable telling me the weirdest things about their lives. Like, thank you, but hearing about the romances of a bunch of 14 year olds is really strange as someone who barely even remembers being 14?? I just had to sit there being like, oh, yeah, maybe telling your makeup artist who is years older than you and who you've spoken to approximately 5 times total before this about the details of your relationship with your girlfriend is a little weird?? Like, I love these kids, they are like my children now, I have adopted them all, but jesus christ I do not need to know half the shit I know about them
A Plea from the Heart: I Am Fatima, and This Is My Story
My name is Fatima, a teacher from Gaza. I used to work in a small school I loved dearly, planting hope in the hearts of children and teaching them that tomorrow could be better. But the war took everything away. My school was bombed, I lost my job, and our home was reduced to rubble. Yet, I refused to give up. I set up a small tent amid the destruction and continued teaching children, showing them that knowledge is a light that cannot be extinguished, even in the darkest times.
My husband, Akram, was my partner and pillar of support. But he was severely injured in an attack targeting civilians. His abdominal injuries are so severe that he can no longer work or even lift basic items. Every day, I see the pain in his eyes and feel the weight of helplessness, but I try to stay strong for him and for our children.
Our eldest, Manar, is four years old, and she’s missing out on her childhood amidst this devastation. Our youngest, Ibrahim, was born under bombardment just a year ago. He has suffered greatly due to the lack of milk and proper medical care. Yet, sometimes, he smiles, and in those brief moments, I find the strength to keep going.
We now live in a fragile tent that doesn’t shield us from the cold or rain. Every day is a new battle for survival. I write these words while holding my children’s hands, with nothing left but my faith in God and the hope that your kind hearts will hear our plea.
Please help us provide milk and food for our children, ease Akram’s pain, and rebuild even a small part of the life the war has destroyed. Every donation, no matter how small, makes a big difference in our lives.
I ask you to share our story and be our support during this harsh and unforgiving time.

the guy who is mildly stalking me (idk if stalking is the right word but he's kinda creepily obsessive) is off his meds now. so that's fun. can't really tell him to fuck off without an even bigger risk of him having a breakdown. this is all totally fun for me.
Why are most designs people make for Ulysses so highly masculine leaning? Like, I know there are probably designs that don't do this out there, and draw Ulysses in a bunch of different ways, but so many that I've seen tend to draw them as just... a guy? The album goes out of the way to specify that we have no idea what they look like, or even their gender, and yet so many people still draw them very masculine. And don't get me wrong, these designs are always great, but for a fandom that usually has such insanely interesting and diverse character designs for every character, it's a bit strange to see just a bunch of iterations of a kind of generic, pretty, masc person. I get that the voice in the album might be a contributing factor, but Jonny never met Ulysses so obviously that's not what they actually sounded like, and even if it was, that doesn't mean they were inherently masculine presenting, or a man, or anything like that?? And the setting of UDAD gives so much room to do such cool designs too. Like there's clearly some 1920s/30s inspiration, with the suits wearing all their pinstripe stuff, and just generally the classic mob energy the Olympians have going on, and the fashion from that era can be so interesting, especially with a steampunk/futuristic twist on it. Like, is there an actual reason that people favour masculine designs for Ulysses that I'm missing or forgetting??? Or is this just people having a similar perception of the character?? What is the root cause of almost every Ulysses design being masculine leaning??
Anyways, all this to say that I desperately want more fem Ulysses designs to be made or get more traction. And that if I ever draw them, they will be fem, at least to an extent.
Edit due to some people bringing up that original mythos Ulysses is a guy: I am aware that the original mythological character is male, however UDAD is so incredibly separate from the original myths that it's hard for me to understand that people could hear an entire thing about how this specific Ulysses is completely unknown appearance wise and yet still stick to the original myths and make them male/masculine presenting? Like that just doesn't really make sense to me, because I understand the subconscious idea to make them more masculine based on the original myth and all, but UDAD is so extremely different to that and there's so much room for creativity in their design because of the general lack of information that it doesn't compute in my head why someone would stick to that base idea of a generic masculine Ulysses lol
how the actual fuck did I go from being fully single and not caring in the slightest to being in some sort of love triangle mess like in a fucking 2010s YA book in the span of like a month at most???????? what the fuck?????

I decided to redraw one of my older Nastya drawings just as a little exercise to see how my art has evolved, and honestly I'm really happy with this, even if it is really messy because it was all done on one layer in like 20 minutes lol
how the actual fuck did I go from being fully single and not caring in the slightest to being in some sort of love triangle mess like in a fucking 2010s YA book in the span of like a month at most???????? what the fuck?????
I've been watching hannibal with my friend for the past couple months and it's great, an absolute work of art, and I adore this show. HOWEVER every time mason verger comes on screen I can barely sit through the episode and I have never seen anyone talk about how awful that man is (to be fair I'm not super deep into the fandom or anything but I would think I'd have seen anyone else talking about how viscerally disgusting he is holy shit)
