idk im just thinking. if existential dread exists so must existential love. and the universe said i love you because you are love. the curiosity rover singing itself happy birthday on mars. creating desire paths and naming them desire paths. the first ever photograph taken of a cat in the victorian age. buying silly little gifts for your friends because it reminded you of them. babies automatically smiling back when they see a smiling face. the navajo people holding gatherings to celebrate the first laugh of a newborn. we are creatures of love by nature
I was trying to remember what the opposite word of neurodivergent was and my fanfic brainrot called it neurocanon.
Personally my tag is: found ADHD.
Aliko Dangote, the richest man in Africa, has been tormented by a Brazilian man named Osvaldo for the last several years.
honestly I don't regret any fandom I've ever participated in. That includes Homestuck, for the record. Because every fandom I've been a part of has left me with experiences and friends I would've never encountered otherwise, and that I still carry with me.
Like. I'm old. I know this is an established fact but I really am OLD. But even fandoms I experienced 20 years ago stick with me and left me with memories and relationships I still think about and treasure to this day. Invader Zim fandom introduced me to my first boyfriend, and while I turned out gay as fuck, I still treasure the time we spent together as friends and otherwise because he was a super rad guy. I don't regret meeting him for even a second. We might have lost touch nowadays, but I hope he's doing well out there, and I still think back on the memories of us hanging out at the mall and going to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory fondly.
shit I don't even really regret my time enjoying the shitty wizard books, because I was a literal child at the time and a very sheltered one-- I couldn't have possibly understood the issues with the books, and I don't blame myself for supporting someone I was incapable of understanding that I shouldn't support at the time. Of course, I've dropped that shit as an adult (and you should too), but I don't hold it against myself for having liked the series as a kid because I was literally just a kid and I was having fun. And I DID have fun and gained happy memories and positive experiences that stand out above the rough times that were about to happen a few years later. So of course, I in no way support or even like that series now, but I don't look back on my time enjoying it as a kid with any anger or shame at myself. I was a kid.
So anyway my point is: love is never wasted. Don't feel ashamed or embarrassed for having loved something.
Ok just for curiosity reasons
I genuinely hate to say this but please reblog if you hit the like button for a larger sample size thank you <3
Haven't thought about hanahaki in a hot minute but consider for me if you will. Stobotnik.
Stone is the one who gets it and immediately sets about trying to make contingency plans for the Doctor for when he's gone. Setting up algorithms to take care of his inbox and scheduling appointments. Teaching the Badniks how to perfectly steam goats milk. Even going as far as holding interviews for potential replacements (and wow, does that go badly)
Confessing his love to the doctor doesn't even occur to him as a viable option.
Meanwhile Robotnik is very aware of what his sycophant is doing and he is Not happy about it. What, does he think he can just leave? He was HIS agent! He couldn't just give up on his duties to go and be in love with some mouth breather! When had he even found the time to develop such a disease - he didn't think Stone had a life outside of his work?
Him being the one Stone is in love with doesn't even occur to him as a viable option.
Eventually Robotnik confronts Stone, blowing up at him about abandoning his responsibilities for feeble human emotions and forbidding him from leaving. Stone tries to explain that he wasn't leaving by choice, but that he was dying and Robotnik cuts him off. He knew that! That wasn't an excuse! Whoever this... Person was, they weren't as important as the work they were doing here and he would just have to get the surgery. Honestly, letting this affect his work in this way was unprofessional-
Stone interrupted him with the roughest bout of coughing he'd had yet, causing Robotnik to actually falter and pause in his rant. It went on for an uncomfortable amount of time, Stone had turned to the side, leaning on the wall he'd pinned himself to, before weakly responding
"actually, doctor, the surgery would impact my work quite a bit..."
