🍾 Divorced Jayvik 🍾 Emotional Hurt/Comfort 🍾 Viktor’s Birthday!!

commission by @wannastayugly my beloved 🤍🤍

Viktor guided Jayce as gingerly as possible to the floor, folding together in a tangle of limbs, his right leg resting on Jayce’s hip, as close as he could manage without putting extra strain on either of their bad legs.

“Vitya,” Jayce whimpered, and it shot down his spine like glacier runoff. “My Vitya…”

Viktor’s breath caught in his throat. All the muscles in his chest constricted around his heart, squishing his ribs and lungs in the process. His whole body felt raw and open, throbbing against the harsh air like a wound. His palm found the nape of Jayce’s neck, tracing little shapes there. “Oh, Jayce…” he murmured, barely-voiced, faint and mournful.

Jayce drew in a long breath, and lifted his head, cheeks still flushed and tear-sodden. He pressed his forehead to Viktor’s, and Viktor’s eyes closed briefly as he sighed into the contact, at once utterly stripped of his defenses.

“Please,” Jayce begged. Though for what, Viktor couldn’t say.

He peered at Jayce’s eyes, as much as he could from this angle. “Please, what?”

“Anyone but him.”

Too much movement makes your joints hurt and too little movement also makes your joints hurt. This would imply that there's an optimal amount of movement that allows your joints to not hurt. This is a lie.

the floating head of wisdom

Please don't fall victim to internet misinformation. There is no floating head. It's a regular horse, it's neck is just hidden due to the position of the camera. I made an image to help you understand the what's actually going on.

Thank you for the clarification

thoughts on the new m9 animated

(for context this is my first time interacting with m9 anything)

I have finished the show!!!!! And everyone has been asking for updates, so here they are!!!!

everyone asking to keep it spoiler free in the comments, I love you btw

I know this has been said so many times in so many words but it is never any less infuriating that we never seem to have basic social services money but we always have fucking war crime money

fucking evergreen post I guess

This is why I've started calling it "government investment" rather than "government spending" because it really makes it clear exactly what they feel is worth investing in

Not that Renee Nicole Good doesn’t deserve justice, because every person murdered by the state deserves that, and more; but that’s exactly my point. It’s not lost on me that most of the general public only started to care about the public executions and kidnappings of citizens when a white woman was revealed to be the victim.

I also personally don’t care for her death being compared to George Floyd’s. Especially since Black children like me were mocked and harassed in school for even remotely caring about his murder, while for the most part people take Renee’s death seriously.

Think about how many immigrants are dying and/or are dead in ICE detention centers, and we don’t know about it. And if we do, it’s only because a family member or an insider has spoken up about it. The only times in which we hear about the extent of the state and ICE’s brutality is when an American citizen is killed.

The people who came here illegally, the mother without a green card, the father who waits in front of gas stations or Home Depot in order to find work because no where else will hire him, they don’t deserve to be killed either. They also deserve to go home to their families and have dinner at the end of the day.

So imagine you have a job as a maid and you get assigned to this rich girl. Her parents picked you to kind of keep her in line, she definitely has some anger issues but she's also really sweet and silly when she's not being kept down by her shitty family. Like, they keep locking her up whenever she does anything they don't like and you're like, I just work here, but you do feel for her.

Then one day they finally assign her to be part of the family business and she's really stoked until she sees the environmental impact it has and she tries to get her family to stop and honestly you are falling so hard for this woman. She loves nature and animals and neither of you have any idea how to run anything, like, you're literally just a maid, but you're in charge of this whole huge shebang.

You both try to convince her family to cut back on production but it's a no go and they're pissed that they finally gave her responsibility only for her to immediately cause new problems. Once her family says fuck off to her efforts to preserve the environment she's just like, okay, fuck it, and she dons a disguise to fight them off as a mysterious rebel and she says it was your idea and you think you were probably joking when you said it but she's so happy so you're like, yeah, okay, let's like, destroy your family's interest in this site.

So then you're just like rebels together and you finally confess how you feel and she feels the same and you are so happy. There's a ton of horrible war going on but she sees you as more than a decorative maid. She convinces you to help her fake her own death and you really don't want to but you're so stupid for this woman so you do it. Her family are so fucking pissed that they just fucking nuke the site, but even after her family drops a radioactive bomb that distorts and destroys pretty much all the ambient life you guys are kind of happy anyway, at least you have each other.

Only then she meets this absolutely useless beach bum musician, falls head over heels for him and dumps you really abruptly. Then she dies in childbirth to bear this absolute goober's baby that you promised to raise.

And you still love her and miss her and her kid is a lot like her and that hurts pretty much all the time and that's basically why Pearl in Steven Universe is Like That.

The could NEVER make me hate you Pearl steven universe THE Tragic Yuri

Vision I had

the current state of fandom needs to be old yellered immediately. im loading up the shotgun as we speak

this is the PERFECT addition bunny omg

Ngl, it's sort of funny but also kinda tragic, how wildly different my perception of my work is pre and post menstruation.

A week and a half ago, I wanted to delete everything I'd ever written. It was so overwhelming that, at one point, I pulled up my Ao3 profile and stared at the 'delete my account' button.

I just hated everything so much.

And I knew the feeling wasn't rational. I knew my period was coming because my joints were getting more clicky and my MCAS was kicking off. So I knew in the small, dwindling part of my brain that was not being consumed by self-loathing, that this was the PMDD, and PMDD is a fucking liar and you shouldn't trust a damn thing it says.

But it was so fucking difficult to talk myself down from.

And then today, when I opened up the file I'd been working on before my period hit, I was like, this is fine, actually??? There's nothing wrong with it??? This bit is actually quite good??? Hello????

Anyway. Until they invent a pill that I can safely take to mute the PMDD*, I've decided I'm just going to take the week off. I will be active and work for 3 of the 4 weeks this month. And in the run-up to my period, when my brain starts pouring napalm over itself while playing with matches, I'm going to lock myself in the proverbial attic like the mad woman of yore and just go fucking nuts. It'll be good for me.

It certainly can't be worse than raw-dogging this shit while also trying to pretend to be a functional human. Good lord.

*No suggestions, please. I've explored all the options currently safe for me, not to mention my MCAS means I already take enough H1 and H2 antihistamines to fell a horse. (And yes, Pepcid is an antihistamine.) I'm just in a shit situation where my options are limited so I'm left DBT-ing my way out of the rage room inside my own head for a week out of every month.

weary and wary are not the same word and have very different meanings and if i see one more person use wearily when they mean warily I’m gonna combust

weary: tired, worn-out, beaten down, exhausted, in need of rest. they were weary after their long journey. wearily, she sat down on the couch and kicked off her shoes. he had grown weary of this conversation.

wary: guarded, cautious, on-edge, careful. they were wary of the approaching stranger. warily, she poked at the dark shape in the corner of her room. he paused, wary, but nodded anyway.

thank you for this reply you get the funny crown today with bonus points for accuracy
