Kia ora! I'm Hiria. She/her. 31. Aotearoa NZ. AuDHD. Queer. Intersectional feminist. Fan of (still probably forgetting things): music, a lot of things Disney and Pixar, video games (particularly choice-based ones like The Walking Dead and Life is Strange, and point and click adventures), TV/movies in general, reading, writing, word puzzles. When asked, I tend to say my fave bands are: Little Mix (saw The Last Show For Now... livestream 15/5/22 (NZ time) ), Bastille (saw them 23/1/20), Halestorm (saw/met them 5/12/15, saw them + Devilskin + City of Souls 3/1/17, found Lzzy's signed hidden pick 14/3/19), Paramore (saw them 13/2/18), and Marianas Trench. More bands/artists but those are the main ones :) Feel free to say hi! :D (Icon made with Lo Fi Generator)

favorite thing about tumblr is having a fandom in law. no i haven't watched this show and i'm not planning to. but my moot is having fun!! look how much they love it!!! i'm supportive from the sidelines!
quarterly reminder that if i reblog something ai-generated it is 110% and always an accident and for the love of god please tell me so i can delete it from my blog
it’s so nice being fond of people on here :-) like yeah maybe we only know each other in a very limited way but i care abt you guys & hearing abt your lives makes me happy & i like listening to the things u have to say & i really truly wish the best for you all!!! sending my love from a couple states, countries, oceans away
i CANNOT express how much more lovable my friends are to me at their most annoying. i'd rather hear the same story 3 times than not at all. i'd rather read a 22 message text rant about something totally inconsequential than not hear from you all day. i'd rather you tag me in the stupidest post i've ever seen than not know that it made you think of a conversation we had a month ago. BE ANNOYING AT ME. I LOVE YOU
i feel. like on a fundamental level. i do not understand x reader fic. i am not exactly opposed to it because let a thousand blossoms bloom etc. but like. i genuinely don’t get it. it seems like the exact opposite of how i engage with fiction. like the whole point is that i’m not in there. i don’t wanna be in there. if i’m in there it’s going to be very stressful.
it's kinda comforting to me when my friends are a little annoying or longwinded or abrasive or tired and inarticulate, or they don't do the exact politest thing in every interaction, and stuff, because I know I'm sometimes annoying, or take up a more than my share of conversational space, or forget to ask them questions, etc etc, and... like, I'm always working to be nice to my friends and to get better and better at friend-ing, but it just makes me feel more human about it :}
anyway I love you friends plz know I'm not counting, in fact I feel great affection toward you even (especially) when conversations go less than Perfectly Ideal
your dashboard is supposed to be at LEAST halfway full of shit you have no context for and fandoms you're not involved in. it is the natural way of the universe
