...hello?
its laura. im @ribbonpinky .
i never thought id come back here.
um lets see....
a lot happened over the past almost decade. i feel horrible forever for abandoning my friends. it was after the political climate of 2016 (augh im shaking rn hard to type) and during the height of aroace exlusionism, that jazz...
stuf went down, and i became so paranoid . between that, and family issues and feeling debilitating fear, i didnt think anyone could still love me, or that i deserved it. so i ran away
that is extremely simplified of course. my mind was a wild storm, i promise u that. there was no way anyone could have convinced me to stay. i had to leave for my own sake, even if it meant severing ties. i really am sorry.
um.. in regards to life- i finished college. i have a job, but not in my degree. school taught me it wasnt for me as a career with my energy levels. rn i work retail. i think i might be disabled? i deal with pain a lot.
i can drive!!! wow!! this is significant to me bc i have vicious road anxiety. i still do but i can get behind the wheel now. wow. its just, its wild to me that i managed to complete all these major stepping stones, even if partially lol. didnt think id do any of them, really
i still lvoe pink. i still love to create. i still love people. i still live. i got better in many ways, worse in others. mostly better tho, in the grand scheme of things? im living and happier than i ever was so far, i think. i still have problems ofc lmao but a positive's a positive
mmm what else, i have strong support for stuff like fat activism, queer liberation, sex worker rights, and many other things.
i was already kind of a self-insert shipper back then, but now its literally my life. i love it. yes yes yes
i still draw. u can find my recent arts at @ribbonpinky-art or my blusky
im verrrryyy different from back then, but also the same in tons of ways? thats how it be. i wonder how differently id be perceived now years later
as always.... much love 🩷 i hope yall have been faring better than me.
