True.

My bestie and I have been together for a long time. We’ve grown and changed together, and through all the changes, we still are besties. I hope that doesn’t change any time soon.

I don’t really know how to explain what I love about her. She’s kind in her own way, and she makes me laugh like no one else can, and she doesn’t give a single shit about what anyone thinks about her. She’s the strongest person I know. She’s the only person I can tell anything to.

There’s more about her I love, but I can’t put it into words.

I know for a fact she’s my soul sister. We were meant to be besties, and no matter what happens, I’ll cherish the memories I’ve made with her forever.

Scar, if you see this, I love you. Keep being amazing. We’ll find each other again, no matter what happens.

And when we do, we’ll finally be able to stay together in peace. I promise I’ll do everything in my power to make that happen, to give you a peaceful life. I owe it to you. You’ve given me so much, and when I am able to, I will give you as much as I can in return.

I loved the part where the gougar said "it's gougin' time" and gouged all over the place

if this hits 10k notes im giving it 24 hours and then turning off reblogs

the moment i said this it started getting notes so. if this gets 10k notes before i go to bed tomorrow i’ll keep it open until 12k notes. and maybe if it keeps getting notes fast enough i’ll let it keep going up. if it goes up fast enough it’s nice but it’d mostly just become annoying so. if it doesn’t keep getting notes fast enough im banishing this post forever

Getting a copy before it gets nuked.

just a fuckin big bird

I need ya’ll to know that I spent a total of 30 minutes on this post intending for it to never get above 200 notes— i appreciate all the scientific corrections on what an actual feathered dragon would look like in the notes but I literally did 0 research for this cause i didn’t think it would get outside of my tiny corner on tumblr lol

Oh shit people don’t realize what a thing Battle Chess was, with the animated captures where the pieces killed each other

That was HUGE, it was the standard display in computer stores for years, there were variants like the Star Wars one where black queen/king was Vader/Palpatine, etc.

huh they made a Chinese chess version too, I never saw that one, shame it doesn’t have any elephants but at least it’s got cannons.

the real game of course was arranging every possible capture so you could watch all the animations, which was tricky as you had to get the king checkmated by every possible piece (the queen would embrace him and knife him!)

oh hey btw when I make silly goofy headcanons about sans and papyrus not knowing stuff about each other, I’m not saying “oOoOoO they actively lie and hide stuff because they have secrets!!!!” I’m saying that I’ve lived with my brother for about 20 years and didn’t find out he has the soap-cilantro gene until a few months ago. He silently ate soap-flavored greens for 20 years and never said anything. I found this out at a restaurant when he mentioned it to a friend. Not to me, to someone else, because he never thought to tell me in all the 20 years we’ve been together. Do you know how long that is to know someone? Do you know how many meals we’ve shared that contained cilantro? Like yeah I know he hates mushrooms because he always complains and picks them out but the soap-flavored cilantro? Can you tell this bothers me? Can you tell I’m a little upset? I found out less than 6 months ago. You know, after living with him for about 20 years. (He never said anything because he doesn’t mind the taste. He said this while eating cilantro.)

“sans never tells anyone anything” is a bitter phrase uttered by a man who recently found out that his brother has been willingly eating soap leafs for the last 20 years.

Just found: my sweater analogy of doing school when you have executive dysfunction

My intense emotions make it hard to be myself around others. Emotional Dysregulation is a MASSIVE and underrated topic in ADHD.

Yet another reason for me to fight god lmao

Hey, if you know someone with ADHD

I just wanna let you lads without adhd in on something

Those of us with adhd have this nifty little thing called RSD. It stands for rejection sensitive dysphoria. Something like 99.8% of people with adhd have it. It’s an example of how adhd messes with emotional regulation.

If someone with adhd even perceives that they may possibly upset someone whose opinion and love they value, they may have a complete emotional breakdown, complete with tears and the certainty that they will now be hated forever. This reaction can also be caused by their own opinion of themselves.

If you see someone you know who has adhd make a mistake, please be gentle with them - especially if that mistake is related to you or someone else. You may save them an RSD episode and a lot of heartache.

Also, as a side note, RSD can also kick in when it comes to things someone with adhd likes. For instance, if I find a comic online and find it funny, if I show it to you, I’m confiding in you not to hurt me. Showing someone something I love takes a huge amount of trust. That’s because, if someone who I care about says something mean or negative about something I like, it can literally, permanently ruin it for me.

This isn’t melodramatics. It’s not about being bitter or petty. It’s an RSD response that comes from feeling inadequate if the things I like don’t measure up to the people whose opinions I care about. I’ve had entire hyperfixations absolutely ruined for me because my sister said she ‘didn’t get it’ and compared beloved characters to something she knows I hate. I could no longer see that show without thinking of the overwhelming sadness that came with that experience. That show became shame. It’s taken almost a year for me to even be able to palate looking at content for it again.

These days, I don’t share hyperfixations with people I’m not confident understand how much they mean to me. It’s a touchy subject and can end in devastation.

So, my point is, if you know someone with ADHD, please be kind to them and keep this in mind when they share things with you. You don’t have to like something or even understand it to show compassion. Maybe ask a question or two before letting the topic trail off. If you don’t seem very interested, they’re likely to find other people to talk about it with anyway, since it’s clear you’re not very into it (depending on how socially aware they are). However, even if they can tell you’re not into it, you’ve made a compassionate and understanding experience for them, showing your support and love and letting them know you care.

I know people mean well when they say "you should care about disabled people because one day you might become disabled too!!" but like... you should just care about disabled people anyway without seeing disability as some big evil threatening thing that could strike you down some day

It's just kinda shitty because it's really just seeing disability as a thing to pity and be scared of

Just care about disabled people regardless. Care about us because we're people too and actually listen to us

Abled people can and should reblog but don't fucking clown about in the comments

hey the “it’s ok this person is doing [weird but harmless behavior] bc they’re autistic” attitude isn’t actually helpful. The behavior itself needs to be destigmatized regardless of who’s doing it.

I’m autistic, and:

There’s an easy solution: destigmatize weird but harmless behavior, period. People who speak, act, walk, or otherwise behave in a way you find unusual are still people (whose diagnoses are none of your business btw), and we deserve to exist in the world without you judging or punishing us. Choose your battles wisely, because I see a lot of you attacking people who are already walking wounded.

TLDR stop being a judgemental asshole and the world will be a slightly nicer place. mind your own business and let people be weird.

ko-fi

One of the fantastic things about Gaud is that you’ll get an extremely articulate and well-made essay-length post about a real, human civil rights issue, often from an underrepresented point of view or on an often ignored issue, and then you scroll down and there’s a post about how sea serpents are whale penises.

Pink ooze coming for my brain from both sides and I am here 👏 for 👏 it 👏

and i am still EXTREMELY proud of the whale penis post!!!

Why did I read that!

my theory is we are all inexorably drawn towards the whispered promise of our own destruction, the alluring siren’s song of the dark void we yearn to believe is lurking around every corner, waiting to consume us. the soft hands of oblivion, which cradle us so gently even as they pull us down, down, down to quiet graves
