I see a lot of talk about how neurodivergence evolved and stayed in the gene pool because it was somehow ‘useful’ to our ancient ancestors. While I don’t necessarily disagree with this theory, I would like to propose an alternative. A theory that we already have physical evidence for. Humans just love each other and care for each other. Don’t you think that a species that cared for it’s people while they recovered from broken bones, or nursed their elderly well beyond their ‘usefulness’ would leave a member out because they didn’t make eye contact, or couldn’t stay focused on a particular task, or whatever other trait you associate with neurodivergence? I really don’t.
Sure, maybe it was useful to have someone around who didn’t mind making arrowheads all day, or who knew absolutely everything about all of the local flora and fauna, or who keyed in on every little distraction. At the end of the day, though, these people weren’t kept around because they were useful, they were cared for because they were loved.
how do ya’ll feel about a Death Family animatic but it’s the intro to Lion King 2 including the song?
My progress to Hazbin-ify QSMP. I started with Phil cuz i’m biased because his designs are the most familiar to me. I’m open to any design imputs; key or decorative elements. Any tips on the technical side is also welcome; I don’t know how to make my brushes look less pixelated and more smooth.
Made an observation from looking at you all talking about your teenage experiences.

“empathy” is not a synonym for “good person”. some of the kindest and most respectful people I know are low empathy. and lord knows there are high empathy dicks out there.
being a good person is a choice. the amount of empathy you have is not.
idk if it’s the mental illness but sharing literally any information feels like oversharing. i’ll be like “i skipped breakfast this morning” and immediately im like “i might as well have told them where i buried the money”
Feckin' loved it. Keep it coming.
Title: Force to be reckoned with Pairing: Derek/Stiles Genre: Romance, Friendship, Family Rating: T
Notes: Mama!Stiles, Stiles is basically Pack Mom, which means he’s sort of the alpha, which makes Derek the dad, so Derek is a bit off character but not really, oh and the rest of the pack kind of act like children.
Summary: Stiles and Derek come home to a mess.
