I was introduced to the internet via a classmate showing me Undertale fanart and I will make it everyone else's problem

So there was this guy I had a crush on who had this very distinct (and kinda pungent) smell sometimes. It was a sharp, starchy mildew. It was familiar, but I couldn't put my finger on it. Like, it trailed behind him too, which sucks because I often was behind him walking to my next class.

Obviously, I wasn't going to ask, "Hey what musk do you put on in the morning sometimes so I can avoid ever gifting it" because that would be rude and maybe he just couldn't shower the few nights prior or something.

I smelled something similar, but not as "strong" while grocery shopping a few days ago, but I still couldn't figure out exactly what it was.

Just yesterday, I was doing dishes and cleaned out the food trap for the sink drain and I instantly recognized the smell....

My crush smelled like water-boarded baked chicken, dish water, a single star anise, and old sushi.

I've been playing Date Everything for a little while now and I think I'm starting to understand my own taste in men better..

Then I saw Parker and all my preferences have been flipped on their head and now Parker's my favorite, but you guys should still get to see these little edits I made, lmao

It's my tiny ego fangirling over fictional characters! Yayyyyy

I forgot I had one of these. To celebrate that I remember this place, here's a Wattpad book cover I made, then immediately started hating because I just can't capture Chance's beauty (I didn't draw him thicc enough, but it's too rendered and I just wanna move on from this piece and try again.)

I don't trust flies. They rubs their little hands together like they have plans and I don't like it

Not-So-Hot Take:

If a character's non-chosen trait (race, gender, heritage, disability, etc.) plays any part to their (including but not limited to) story, background, mythology, and/or societal influence, you shouldn't change their whatever without changing their story, backstory etc.

Example: Merida from Brave and Snow White

If the character is a historical figure or real person, absolutely no changes should be made without some sort of explicit statement about what changes were made at the start of the film, book, or whatever.

Example: Joan of Ark and Cleopatra

If the character's non-chosen traits are coincidental and play absolutely no role to their story, mythology, etc., it should be perfectly fine to change those aspects.

Example: Cinderella

I don't consume a lot of visual media, but I did read The Outsiders and was throughoughly pissed when Dally wasn't an ugly mug with pointy, lynx-like ears and a dangerous charm like described, but just some handsome, young man. I had to take a step back and understand that, for the sake of sales, the casting director wouldn't want to hire an "ugly" guy. Besides, Dally's looks weren't much of a point in the book, so it was inconsequential anyways.

I am willing to discuss this view, however, because I would love to expand my thoughts on this subject.

"You know when you're desperately trying to find a very specific video or song, but it's just a vague blur in your memory? You scour the internet, clawing at every possible keyword as the softest recollection mocks your crappy literary skills. YouTube, Instagram, Wattpad chapter banners just to be safe. But nothing comes up.

Then several days later, TikTok gives you exactly what you were looking for."

Me writing this after TikTok reshows me the "You're my friend now" audio: Hell yeah, Tumblr would love this

The rain was sprinkling on me and I thought, "Oh, silly clouds, I am not a cupcake."
