Last week, I've pulled an all-nighter watching Heartbreak High S2. So 2 days ago, I drew (the best character) Quinni.

Forcing myself to study feels like forcibly having to feed icky medicine to an unwilling animal; the animal is constantly scrambling and kicking and trying to get away and you need to restrain it over and over again, somehow keep the grip around its strong limbs and slippery body and simultaneously force its jaws open with one hand

Shai Davidai needs to be FIRED and de-platformed. He's a danger to Palestinian/Arab/Muslim students and allies to Palestinian liberation. That has been proven time and again.

Here is another beautiful moment/act of solidarity I wanted to share that happened on the same campus:

When the rest of the world looks at the united states right now, we see a government who sends billions to support genocide but cannot help their own people starving on the streets.

We see a police force who won't go in to save children from school shootings, but deploy at a rapid rate to arrest peaceful protestors using their right to free speech to protest a genocide

America, you are a war mongering snake eating your own tail. You will protect and support war criminals in another country but let your own people starve and die

To the students bravely protesting now, we see your strength. We see what we saw when students protested the Vietnam War. We have faith you will prevail

It makes me happy when they listen

Today some more LongFroglets and RoundFroglets have left to start their new lives with a Wildlife Demonstrator! They will help educate children and the public and be ambassadors for their species! 🐸

cemeteries aren't creepy they're actually devoted to memory and rest and love and humanity

Something I've unfortunately heard a lot is "You're trans??? Now you'll never find someone to love you!"

I'm sorry... but I've experienced no purer adoration, affection, and acceptance in my entire life than I do now from other trans folks. They see me for who I am, they support me, they appreciate me, and they largely aren't afraid to make damn sure that I understand such. I never have to wonder if they're going to be there when I need them, because they're always there reminding me that I matter, that we matter, and that we have reasons to keep on living when everyone else in this world keeps telling us that we shouldn't exist.

If that isn't love then I don't know what is.

marinette making a velour dress to stunt for catwalker. she’s trying to get him to feel the nap of the fabric, how ~soft~ it is, but he’s a gentleman so it’s a very light touch with the back of his hand, his knuckle, and instead he praises her craftsman ship.

she takes his hand, intertwines their fingers, smiles sweetly and says yeah, velours is a delicate fabric that requires a lot of care.

I'm upset with tiktok. Particularly the mental health aspect of tiktok. It's so inaccurate most of the time but people act like it's not. You shouldn't take mental advice from tiktok. Tiktok is partially responsible for setting back the public's perception of OCD, we were gaining traction in helping people understand that intrusive thoughts don't make us, killers, creeps, or dangerous.

Now we've got tiktok people telling everyone that intrusive thoughts are about wanting to eat too much candy, or poke a Llama in the face because it's so cute. No those are just thoughts, normal thoughts, impulsive thoughts.

They are likely not ego dystonic. They likely do not clash with your sense of self, you most likely do not have a negative or anxious reaction to these thoughts. Intrusive thoughts are unwanted, scary, distressing thoughts that pop into your mind randomly and you don't want them.

People with ocd can't control their thoughts, but now we have people calling OCD people and people with other conditions monsters because they have real intrusive thoughts that follow a common theme, hurting others, doing something bad or perverted. Or something you don't want to do, it can even be thoughts about joining another religion or secretly being a sexuality and not knowing it.

Intrusive thoughts can be anything, but they are always unpleasant and unwanted, they are considered to be ego dystonic meaning they do not go along with a person's sense of self.

When I was younger I would have thoughts about pushing people into the street and them getting run over by cars, I hated those thoughts. I didn't want them, those were intrusive thoughts. Tiktok has harmed OCD acceptance and imagine what it's going to do to Autism, which I also have, if people keep taking advice from tiktok. Please don't take tiktok advice
