If This Isn't How Jjk Ends I'm Gonna Lose My Shit

Eating toast for dinner instead of cooking is better than not eating anything at all.

Using mouthwash instead of brushing your teeth is better than not taking care of your teeth at all.

Wiping yourself with a damp cloth or baby wipe instead of showering is better than not bathing at all.

Doing only one out of five assignments you need to turn in is better than not submitting anything at all.

Talking to a loved one on the phone is better than not talking to anyone at all.

Playing your favorite video game, listening to good music, or reading a book instead of "grinding" is better than not doing anything at all.

Don't beat yourself up for not being "productive enough". A little productivity is still productivity.

damn. guess who just got CLOCKED

whatever I'll post my addendum to it anyway

Okay fuck it if this post reaches 666k notes by the end of 2023 I'll practise basic self care

Why 666k? Because it's funny and impossible so good fucking luck

Do y’all ever wonder if Dutch and Hosea knew they were going to raise an absolute UNIT like Arthur? Like he was once a skinny and rambunctious 14 year old street orphan and they took a chance on him and fed him as he grew into a fucking BEAST who is arguably bulkier than the two of them combined, and has become the main brawn of the gang.

This is basically just an Arthur Physique appreciation post but GOD DAMN.

he was just hangry yall it’s fine now

My copium au where they get to grow up

sticker sheets!!

I have seen people comment both on here and elsewhere that some PoC characters are that in name only. And have heard people say that a "black person would never say that" that hispanic girl is a reskinned white girl. I recognize that when some writers use PoC characters as mouth pieces to talk about that ethnicity, but it seems to be a more social outlook in some cases that is hard to put a finger on.

On POC Characters not being “authentic” enough

I’m here for fixyourwritinghabits’s response to the POC would/wouldn’t accusation.

X people do not all act, react, think or live the same, so you’re right to raise your brow at anyone saying “Nah, Black people don’t do so and so.” But what you will want to look at is if this claim is valid in relation to your particular character. 

So let’s take talking back to one’s parents. Let me generalize and say in the Black community, this might be something that’s not gonna happen so often and there’s lots of jokes about how shocked Black people are to see how their White friends are allowed to say certain things to their parents that would get them personally in trouble with their Black parents. 

Observe:

But not every Black person or family is the same. You might have a Black character who would talk back and whether drama ensues or not is up to the development you created with your characters.

It’s a strange thing to balance, achieving alleged “Authenticity” vs. avoiding stereotypes, but it can and is done when you realize that people are influenced by not just their identifies as Black, Latinx, or otherwise, but personality, social class, family lives, and so on.

I’m fucking sobbing she really would

Rodolfo: Hey, I cooked so I’m just waiting for you to get home.

Alejandro, who just lost a bet to Soap and Ghost and now has to do this on a dare: what’s for… what’s for dinner, bitch? *shaking*

Rodolfo: *silence*

Rodolfo: *more silence*

Soap: Hey, I think it’s gonna be fi-

Rodolfo: *angry Spanish screaming*

Everyone: …

Ghost: I don’t speak Spanish but I don’t think he’s saying what’s for dinner

Valeria: I do and he is not.
