This is what happens when you’re still on tumblr as an adult, you start reblogging shit like this

hate it when the people who I love are suffering due to circumstances beyond my control 👎 there should be a sea monster that I can slay to fix the problem

[beastliness]

nobody ever gets locked in a tower or chained to a rock at sea anymore - it's always some shit like chronic illness or ptsd related depression

Accidentally clicking on an AI assistant feels like clicking on a link that’s going to give you a virus.

who taught you that suffering in silence was noble, and how would you shutting up have benefited them?

[lyraeon]

this also counts for all those times you kept your mouth shut and didn't complain because you were being polite, and people would gladly have changed things if you had just asked. your suffering was not noble. you do not get a cookie for it, you do not get a tally mark next to your soul's score for grinning and bearing it. your suffering serves no purpose. break free of it. you deserve comfort.

every part of living as a person in 2025 feels like fighting a losing battle. and you’re supposed to just get on with it or you’re weird

7pm to 10pm on a weeknight is 30 minutes

one of the most infuriating things about becoming an adult is when you realize that it actually is 10x easier to solve problems by making a phone call vs literally any other communication method

I came back just to say rest in peace to Akira Toriyama.

I've never been one to cry over the death of famous people but this one hit me so hard. Every time I see anything even hinting about the situation I'm in tears all over again.

Online the first thing that connected me with others was here on Tumblr. I saw people talking DBZ and created @chibibulma then the people running those DBZ accounts started following my personal. As Tumblr faded into the background these people followed me to my regular social media and we built rich but distant friendships with nostalgia in common.

When I think of the world Akira Toriyama created, I think of the best parts of my childhood with my older brother who, to this day, still gets hyped over DBZ with me. I had a tumultuous childhood but the Dragon Ball universe was my silver lining. The Z Fighters unknowingly saved me from dark parts that could have been darker if it weren't for something to look forward to.

It's even the first anime I introduced my husband to and he ended up having a love for the show as he goes on his own anime journey.

Now I use the penname QueenFrieza to publish cheesy romance novels which has been a fun little side income for me the past couple of years. My first published light novel was heavily based on DBZ's namek saga. I always loved Toriyama's portrayal of space travel.

My heart has a hole in it but the art outlived the artist. I'm so thankful for what he did for me.

I wonder how far he's gotten on Snake Way. I bet he has a hell of a welcome party on King Kai's planet.

For a minute it feels like we're all brought back together again. I'm so grateful for that feeling
