Like hide my face, refuse to go to school, and smother my skin in 100 different products horrible acne.
It made me feel incredibly self conscious and every time someone looked at me, I thought they were just looking at my skin and thinking about how bad it was. I hated it.
Of course I tried to fix it with cleansers and creams and miracle whatever, but nothing worked. It wasn’t until I started paying close attention to what I ate and how it affected my skin that my acne started to clear up.
Here’s a quick list of diet related tips to keep your skin acne free:
1. Avoid dairy, alcohol, and sugar. So like, definitely no Bailey’s milkshakes lol. But seriously, all 3 of these are incredibly inflammatory to the body and acne is, essentially, just inflammation. So if you want to reduce acne, the best way to do it is to reduce inflammation in your body. And one of the best ways to do THAT is to cut out these 3 things.
2. Eat 8-10 servings of fruit and vegetables a day. I know this sounds like a lot, but you can easily fit ~6 servings in to a single smoothie!! Fruits and veggies contain antioxidants and phytonutrients and micronutrients and so many other incredible things that are good for your skin! The more the merrier!
3. Take an Omega 3 supplement (preferably vegan). Why? Because omega 3s reduce inflammation in the body!!! I take a vegan omega 3 supplement sourced from algae and it has reduced the redness in my skin dramatically. I noticed a difference only within a month too!
4. Try collagen. Collagen is honestly so good for you. I know it comes from animals so my vegan friends will want to avoid this. But taking collagen everyday has made, hands down, the most dramatic difference in my skin. Collagen smooths your skin making it plumper, softer, and more even. It can also help heal the lining in your gut and a happy gut is a happy life! Just make sure to order collagen from an ethical company that sources it from grass fed pasture raised bovine. And if you don’t want to take collagen…
5. Eat lots of Vitamin C. Vitamin C works to protect the skin, as well as stimulate the production of collagen in the body!!
6. Put fresh turmeric root in your smoothie. Turmeric is one of the most powerful anti inflammatories on the planet. I drink a little bit of fresh turmeric root (along with black pepper to increase the bioavailability of the active ingredient, curcumin) every day to shrink existing pimples, as well as to decrease the redness in my face. This stuff is awesome and a little bit goes a long way!
7. Eat fermented foods or take a probiotic supplement. Your gut is responsible for nearly every aspect of your health, so when your gut is happy and healthy, your skin will be too. And not only do they help with your skin, they can also regulate your digestive sustem, treat mental illnesses, decrease bloating, and help you lose weight! I like to eat lots of kimchi, sauerkraut, and of course kombucha to get a daily dose of probiotics.
Wow ok that was a lot more thorough than I intended lol but I hope this was helpful! Feel free to ask me any questions, I would love to explain any of these further. Xoxo

Supporting evidence:
1. Humans say ‘ow’, even if they haven’t actually been hurt. It’s just a thing they say when they think they might have been hurt, but aren’t sure yet.
2. Humans collect shiny things and decorate their bodies and nests with them. The shinier the better, although each individual has a unique taste for style and colouring
3. Humans are not an aquatic or even amphibious species, but they flock to bodies of water simply to play in it. They can’t even hold their breath all that long; they just love to splash!
4. When night falls and the sky goes dark, humans become drowsy and begin to cocoon themselves in soft, fluffy bedding.
5. Some humans spend time in each other’s nests! Just for fun! It’s not their nest; they’re just visiting each other.
6. Some humans use pigments and dyes to make their bodies flashy and colourful! They even attach shiny dangly bits to their cartalidgous membranes!
7. Humans are very clever, and sometimes adopt creatures from other species into their family units. They don’t seem to notice the obvious differences, and often raise them alongside their own young!
8. If a human sees another creature in distress, they can commonly be observed trying to help! Even at their own risk, most humans are deeply compassionate creatures!
9. If a human hears a particularity catchy sound or tune, it will often mimic it, even to the point of annoying themselves!
10. Sneezes are entirely involuntary, and completely adorable. Especially when the human in question becomes frustrated
11. Humans love treats!!! Some more than others. Many humans will save these treats specifically for a later date when they are in need of comfort or reassurance. IE, pickles, pop tarts, Popsicles, etc
12. They’re learning to travel in space!!! They can’t get very far, but they’re trying!!! So far, they’ve made it to the end of their yard, and have found rocks

So, like I mentioned before, here’s a list of K-Pop songs that either scream ‘Yandere’ or that I associate with the trope. The list will probably grow as I discover new groups and new songs are released.

Starting with the intense / obvious ones:
1. Monster - EXO

5. Stuck - Monsta X
6. Voodoo Doll - VIXX

11. Shadow - f(x)
12. Jealousy - Monsta X
13. Scentist - VIXX
14. Fantasy - VIXX
15. Tic Tic Tok - GOT7

22. Fiancé - Mino
23. Enough - SF9
24. She’s Mine - VAV
25. Amazing Bad Lady - Cross Gene
26. She’s A Monster - GOT7
27. Dejavu - NU’EST W
28. So, Dangerous - UP10TION
29. Obsession - Boyfriend
30. Now Or Never - SF9
31. Be Quiet - Monsta X
32. Peek-A-Boo - Red Velvet
33. Pied Piper - BTS
34. Monster - Big Bang
35. Going Crazy - UP10TION
36. She Bad - MYTEEN
37. Alligator - Monsta X
38. BTD (Before The Dawn) - Infinite
39. I Want You - SHINee
40. Fake Love - BTS
41. Trespass - Monsta X
42. Mine - GOT7
43. Want - Taemin
44. Forever - EXO
45. Horololo - EXO-CBX
46. Bounce - Boyfriend
47. Play With Me - Cross Gene
48. Love Is? - Teen Top
And ending with the more subtle / based on how you want to interpret them ones.
Once again, this is just my opinion and songs I associate so far with the trope, many of the MVs contain dark themes / content so do not watch if squeamish in any way (especially the full version of Voodoo Doll). Also, some of the videos linked are the dance / performance versions since it’s a personal preference.
Four years ago…
Damn it!
They kicked the dinner table over, using the temporary cover it provided to dive behind the couch.
Not that a couch or a table would really stop a bullet. It was more for the visual cover than anything. Harder to hit a target you can’t see. It would give them a chance to reload, at least.
They didn’t feel too bad about destroying the homeowner’s furniture. The room was a mess anyways. The picture hanging on the wall wasn’t even straight.
“Vanderwood?” The voice in his earpiece had a forced calm, like it was trying to sound professional. The hesitant rise in pitch at the end of their name gave them away.
Well, to them, at least. Vanderwood was pretty familiar with that voice by now. Just like they were starting to get familiar with the exact angle that stupid picture was off balance. Seriously, it was so uneven. How did the guy who lived here not notice?
“What is it, Zero Seven?” they asked, peeking out quickly from the couch to fire back at their attackers. They heard one fall to the ground with a pained shout.
“Did you find the papers?”
Vanderwood sighed. Well, half sigh, half groan of annoyance. If they’d found it, don’t you think they’d have left before people started shooting at them?
“Our info must have been bad, there’s nothing like that here.”
“Oh.” An awkward pause, broken up only by a faint clicking of keys. “You should probably get out then. Backup’s on the way. For them, not you. That’s what I was calling to tell you.” The kid was clearly nervous, which only confirmed the depth of shit Vanderwood was currently in. Great. “You should probably get out of there fast.”
“Thanks, genius.” Vanderwood usually tried not to be too harsh on the kid, but they were a little stressed about the whole imminent death thing.
…And it didn’t help that the stupid slanted picture was staring at them. Crookedly.
“Any chance of backup?” they asked, staring back at the offending picture.
“No one else is in the area…” They could hear a faint tapping in the background. 707′s nervous habit. “They’re coming in from the north, so you should head for the back door.”
“Understood.”
The line stayed open for a second longer, as though the kid wanted to say something else. But he didn’t. Vanderwood heard a ‘click’ as the line went dead, and turned back to face the problem at hand.
That stupid picture.
What? No! The whole ‘being trapped’ thing. That was their priority. Stop looking at the picture. Stop it.
They leaned out and shot at the doorway where the three men (two? They didn’t know if the one they’d shot was still there) were hiding, forcing them back into cover. They took the opening to run for the kitchen.
Right past the crooked picture.
It was so close. It was literally right there. If they just… reached out… and pushed it just a little…
The picture was straight. All was well. They had a bullet in their arm.
…wait, what?!
They dove into the kitchen and kicked the back door open. They didn’t have time to stop and worry about the fact that their arm was slowly bleeding out.
Should’ve thought of that ten seconds ago, huh idiot?
They ran outside, launching themself over the fence. Before they left, they turned back and lodged their taser against the fence, wedging it in so the wires held the trigger down. Let’s see those assholes climb the fence now.
They continued to follow 707′s directions until they finally met up with their getaway driver. Which was… 707 himself. They hadn’t expected that.
“Are you even old enough to drive?” they joked weakly, all but collapsing into the passenger seat.
The kid’s eyes widened, honing in on the blood seeping through the older agent’s sleeves. “What happened?”
“I… got distracted.” They felt their face heat up as they remembered their temporary lapse of judgement. Was it too much to hope 707 wouldn’t ask?
“By what?”
Of course it was.
“There was this picture on the wall and it was just… so crooked.”
Saying it out loud only made it sound worse. They regretted it instantly. They didn’t owe this kid an explanation. Why didn’t they just lie?? They blamed it on being tired.
The heavy silence after their explanation only lasted a moment before it was ripped apart by 707′s barely contained laughter.
“You didn’t.”
“Shut up.”
“In the middle of a firefight? Seriously?”
“I said shut it!”
And although the laughter eventually faded, they both knew that Vanderwood was never going to live this down. Ever.
