It makes me so sad that people just don’t care about Kris’s pronouns or gender identity. Like if they were a boy or girl and got labeled as something else people would correct it so fast. But because they’re GNC specifically that gets brushed under the rug. It happens all the time in media.

“Why do you care so much? Just let people head cannon what they want.” You can say that because you’ve never had to worry about having good representation. Name three NB characters that aren’t an animal or weird magical creature bro. Or a fucking one off side character.

Kris is the protag of a mainstream video game and literally the only human character to boot. Everyone in game respects their identity and accepts it just like the other LGBT characters in the game so idk why people can’t do that irl. You wouldn’t say Noelle is straight so why would you say Kris isn’t NB???

I feel more represented with this freak that literally hides under beds and slashes tires than any other NB character in the past few years and it just breaks my heart to see them literally misgendered everywhere.

Happy New Year everyone!

It’s a time of reflection I believe so here’s three things I want to improve in 2017!!

1. My saxophone playing

I want to be able to finish grade 5 this year and then start grade 6 hopefully by term 3!

2. My fitness

I know I know cliché but since I’ve dropped athletics, my fitness has taken a turn! So this year, I was to work on my strength especially in my upper body.

3. My bad habits

I’ve written out all my bad habits and I 100% want to improve from them. For example, I clench my jaw a lot so I want to stop that and I also stress unnecessarily so I also want to stop that.

Anyway guys, I’m excited for 2017 and I can’t wait for what this year has in store for me and everyone here!

I’m in love with this teal blue shade. My 2017 diary is from kikki k and I love it’s muted colours so it calms me in a way. My bullet journal is made from a dotted a5 spiral journal from muji. So yes, get ready for my 2017 bullet journal!! I have a ripper January spread ready for all you guys!

Much New Years love from my end to yours

Ik this is old news at this point but can be please talk about ch 52 of skip and loafer???

Specifically this page???

LIKE,,,,,THEY LOOK NORMAL?? NO SKIMPY BIKINIS, NO FUCKING ZOOMED IN TIT SHOT, AND THE MEN AREN’T FUCKING DROOLING WITH NOSE BLEEDS???

This sounds dramatic but im so desensitized to the sexualization of school girls in manga that i was straight up shocked when I saw how normal they all looked. I legit used to dress like this in HS….

You can tell Skip and Loafer was written by a woman cause I’ve never felt more accurately represented as someone who grew up a girl in a manga before JDJDJ

Look we all know that oshi no ko sucks cause this awful fucking incest ship is aboutta happen but I can’t help but feel a little disappointed with the rest of the series too.

Like it was built up as this huge conspiracy mystery that was gonna “show the true side” of the entertainment industry, but minus the first episode the most that happened was that someone got cancelled?????

That’s a terrible thing to happen for sure but I was gearing up for I’m Glad My Mom Died levels of horror and all I got was some standard bs Twitter drama.

Obviously the story doesn’t *have* to address these things but I really thought that was the direction it was gonna go. I was excited for someone to finally look at the abuse of women and minors, in a country where that stuff isn’t talked about a lot, and shout “HEY THIS IS WRONG!!!!”

But whatever not the story ig, I’ll just cope instead

Also the author is lowkey giving pedo vibes so ima just never interact again 💖💖💖💖

Researching Miyazaki’s storytelling for fun and there seems to be a lot of people that don’t think he choose mostly female protags a social message??

Almost all films during that time (and now) couldn’t even pass the Bechtel test yet this dude was making fucking Nausicca. Yall need to get your eyes checked cause that dude is 100% a feminist 😭

The amount of apathy people have towards any kind of political or social situation is actaully so crazy.

“If I don’t use A.I someone else just will!” THATS THE EXACT MINDSET THE 1% WANTS YOU TO HAVE

Every ChatGPT search takes around 10 milliliters of water (or more depending how complex the query is). So that means by the time you’ve hit enter 30 times you’ve used up the same amount of liquid that’s in a can of soda.

Imagine how much water you as an individual  could save if you didn’t use any ChatGPT for a month? GALLONS of water would be saved. Sure other people are doing it but if you have the choice to waste gallons of water or not why wouldn’t you take the first option? I’m not even saying you have to completely cut out ChatGPT but simply limiting your use could make all the difference.

Social media has ruined our resolve to make change because now if we don’t see that our actions are making an impact immediately we become despondent and blame it on a system we can’t fix. Actual activists spends DECADES of their life working towards a goal that might not even happen within their lifetime. But their impact is still felt in the next generations and that’s what they’re fighting for.

For anything to change we need to have the resolve and faith that even though we can’t personally see the impact of every action we take that progress is STILL happening.

Composing a party with just my dnd characters.

Princess knight who has to take the spot of the hero in the prophecy to save her kingdom cause the actual hero died. (Human paladin)

Archeologist cowboy samurai who fled her home country. She used to work for a noble but had to run after she returned stolen artifacts to a kingdom they conquered. They think she still has them though. (Tabaxi, samurai/gloomstalker)

Celestial huntress who tracks mythical creatures like unicorns and angels and sells their parts on the black market. Has some weird blacked out eye and scar from getting cursed. She helped the samurai get back in her feet and is kinda in yuri with the princess. (Tiefling, planeswalker or gloomstalker ig)

Magic researcher who illustrates spells to put them in textbooks. Very shy and meek but is trying to be brave to improve her craft and herself. Adopted by a hunter who found her alone in the woods as a baby. (Firbolg, Order of scribes)

Sweet and energetic blacksmith who loves her friends. She wears a hoop skirt and welds a giant fucking hammer twice her size. Wants to become a master smith to get her family out of poverty. Missing a few teeth and half a horn. Childhood besties with the researcher. (Tiefling, Battle Smith)

I think about them all the time

Me and my friends were hanging around outside at night when we saw an apartment window lit up with red lights and the difference in our reactions was so funny.

Friend: “Yo what the fuck is that?? That’s some demon shit for SURE!”

Me: “Haha sex lights”
