Okay I woke up with Bakugo on my mind like always and honestly....

He would honestly love if you gave him homemade gifts, it shows him that even with how other people see him as insufferable, you see him as worth all of your time and love.

I just wanna give him a hand embroidered pillow that says 'Great Explosion Murder God' that's sprayed with my perfume gosh 🥺🖤

Hey guys. Sorry I haven't been as active lately. I've found that my engagement on tumblr has been pretty low, and that a lot of people don't reblog anymore. A post I can spend hours on will get maybe 40 notes altogether, so I've lost a bit of motivation.

I have been focusing more on my art account on Tiktok (maddyc_drawings) since engagement is pretty high on there. I definitely will try answering more asks to keep active, but I'm wondering if any other people have been noticing the same thing.

Hey guys! So I know it's been a while since I was super active on here, but that's because I just graduated college haha!

And to think I started this blog in 2016, my freshman year of high school. Time sure does fly.

My sage advice for any anxious students following me: life is a hike, not a race! Make sure to enjoy the scenery while you work to make it to the end goal, even if some parts may be rocky and difficult to navigate.

I'm planning on answering some of the asks that have been piling up, but I've mostly been working on job applications and studying for the GRE. I'm planning on taking a gap year to work and save, and then start applying to grad schools.

Thank you all so much for your continued love and support!

Ok don’t kill me…but I found that watching the OG first Percy Jackson movie more enjoyable than watching these first two episodes of the show.

Even though the first movie is a worse adaptation, it’s a more enjoyable piece of media (and sometimes I think that’s more important). The second movie sucked ass because it was a bad adaptation AND a bad movie.

I just don’t understand why Rick and Disney would choose to make the show for kids when a majority of their audience is now late teens/twenties. Maybe making pjo more digestible to gen alpha that can’t read?

More in-depth rant under the cut:

90% of the show’s pitfalls are as a result of it being kid-ified.

1. It is SO tell and not show. We’re being spoon-fed all of the information. IMPORTANT information that should have buildup and drama.

2. Gabe. This man is supposed to be human swine whose stench hid Percy for years. And now he’s just kind of a loser who’s snarky. I get that dv is a sensitive subject to kids but at least make him a villain and not just a bum!

3. The whole thing about the master bolt being stolen and Percy being the thief happened in .25 milliseconds??? I’ve read the books and even I was confused!!!

4. The Mrs. Dodds fight. No context. No buildup. No payoff. Stupid.

5. There are no varied personalities. Everyone besides Percy is just an Exposition Machine, including Grover! Justice for my man (and his crutches!)

This was my fav book series as a kid so sorry that I’m ranting it’s just irritating and I hate the Disney corporation.

himbo somewhat implies a degree of beefiness. Has anyone come up with a word for a handsome, scrawny, pathetically stupid man?

16 y/o me would wake up at 6:30am 5 days a week, go to school 7-3pm (sometimes extracurriculars till 10pm), and also do homework, study, and make time for a social life…

She may have been cringe but she’s def stronger than me
