Welcome to my Tumblr! I'm an artist beginning in the book illustration industry and floral designing! I'll try to post frequently, but work does come first. Please enjoy the photos of my dog (Thor) and my cat (Starry Starry Night)!

He wants snugglesssss ❤️

[shakkaboom]

It’s not just me, right?

I dunno, I guess I just haven’t actually had any RP’s that don’t lead to nonsense eventually. Not any really fun ones, anyway. 

Not that that’s a bad thing~

So this apparently happened. I’ve had to do some gnarly pain relievers lately and they don’t always make me.... sane.

Bless him for putting up with me 🙏🏻 not that he has a choice. He’s stuck with me.

I did not want to be a shrimp. 🍤 🦐

Shhh, she’s camping.

I Need Help

For those of you who don’t know, I’ve hit a rough patch and I’ve hit it HARD. I’ve been diagnosed with HPV mRNA e6/e7 and, after talking to my doctor further, it turns out I already have developed precancerous cells. So I’ve started a gofundme since my insurance is trying to be an absolute jerk face.

If you can share or donate, that’d be much appreciated.

THIS IS ABSOLUTE BULLSHIT

my mom was 17 and my dad was 27 when they got together and they’re still together now after almost 40 years and they love their life and raised me and my sister in the best way ever!

and my whole life my parents told me that my mom was very mature and my dad even says that he never felt as sure of a relationship, he knew he could trust my mom and he asked her for advice and he treated her with the utmost respect. mom always says they were deeply in love and she had never wanted ANYONE before my dad but he just stole her heart since they were so in harmony together.

IT DEPENDS, NOT ALL TEENS CAN SUSTAIN A RELATIONSHIP WITH A MUCH OLDER MAN BUT SOME CAN!

[dontdowhatisayandnobodygetshurt]

no

no

no 

nonononono oh my fucking god

no

For starters, I’m happy your mom and dad and you and your sister are happy, that’s fantastic, I’m glad it worked out.

but this is seriously fucked up

GROWN-ASS MEN. SHOULD NOT. BE ATTRACTED. TO TEENAGERS. NO. NO. NO.

I’m a 17 year old dude and I physically can not be attracted to someone more than a year younger than me, because they are immature, they just are, no matter how ‘mature’ they are, they. are. fucking. CHILDREN. I AM A CHILD. I have changed so, so much since just last year, and I know I will change even more this year. Teenagers ARE CHILDREN. They are STILL going through puberty, they are still growing, their minds are NOT adult yet. Even if they are 18, they’re still trying to find their way in the world and their brains STILL AREN’T MATURED. You ask ANY 30+ year old about their 18 year old selves and 99% of them will say how naive they were or how they wouldn’t make the same choices they made then, now.

The fact that your mom ACTED mature as a kid and had her head screwed on straight is great, but that makes it even worse to think that she could handle that kind of relationship. That’s like saying the 12 year olds that are super precocious and intelligent are ready for a relationship, just because they’re ~so mature.~

What if she was 16. What if she was 15. What if she was 14. What if, what if. She’s still mature for her age, right? What makes those ages any less okay?

NO 27 YEAR OLD GUY SHOULD BE ATTRACTED TO A FUCKING MINOR. NO 27 YEAR OLD GUY SHOULD WANT TO DATE A MINOR. NO 27 YEAR OLD GUY SHOULD ACT ON THOSE URGES. BECAUSE YOUNG GIRLS ARE RAISED TO BE INSECURE AND HAVING A MATURE MAN TELL THEM THAT THEY’RE DESIRABLE IS A HUGE CONFIDENCE BOOST AND IS MANIPULATION WHETHER THEY KNOW IT OR NOT.

It is an adult’s RESPONSIBILITY to say no. If a minor likes them, or if they happen to develop feelings, even if they shouldn’t. Just don’t act on them. It is very, very easily to not act on feelings. It is your job to not be a creep and take advantage of a naive child.

IT IS NEVER OKAY FOR ANYONE TO DATE/COURT/INTERACT WITH A MINOR IN ANY SEXUAL OR ROMANTIC WAY. EVEN IF THEY HAVE ~NO BAD INTENTIONS.~ IT’S MANIPULATIVE AND A BIG SHIFT OF POWER EVEN IF IT’S ~EVEN~ AND IT’S SO SO SO CREEPY.

PLEASE DON’T PUT THIS OUT THERE FOR YOUNG GIRLS, OR BOYS, OR NON-BINARY KIDS TO SEE.

Because it is. not. okay. Even if it does work out eventually, it shouldn’t have happened in the first place.

After my parents broke up, my dad, 33 yo, went into a relationship with a 18 yo. They’re still together to this day, had two beautiful children, and I’m sure if my half siblings saw this post they would have commented the same as the first commenter. Because they’re the relationship’s children, and because they’re hidden things a lot. Because I eavedrop a lot, I can tell you that this loving, perfect, romantic relationship is fucked up to the core. Because I needed to reach 33 yo myself to be fully aware how fucked up it was.

My dad didn’t want to get into a relationship with an adult, and made an exception for my step mother because she was “so mature”. He wanted a teen. Specifically a teen. He only dated teens. So he could raise them into the wife he wanted. It was totally calculated.

This is why they’re still together this day. She dress like he wants, lost weight like he wanted, She became as racist and conservative as him. She does all the houses chores, sometimes even late at night, while he watches tv, like he wanted, and then tells everyone around him she’s a clean freak and makes fun of her. He forced her to get an abortion, for a child she wanted. She still talks about it. She never forgot, never forgave him. And still, she stayed. Because she has no prior experience, and has no idea how bad their relationship is.

When an adult say that a teen is “mature” enough for a realtionship with him, he means she’s submissive. He means she listens to him and is easily convinced by his opinion. He means she’s calm and easy to deal with. 

When an adult is attracted to a teen, they’re attracted to their own dominant position in the relationship. A teen doesn’t know what they want in life. So they’re no conflict : the adult convince her that she wants what he wants. An adult is not attracted to a teen despite her age. He’s attracted to her because of it. A mature teen is not an adult. It’ something else, and no adult should date them.

If a grown ass adult is trying to get in a relationship with you and you are a teenager: RUN THE OTHER WAY IMMEDIATELY.

Boyfriend: “idk why you love me. I’m not much to love”
