very very important how do you block tags on here i can’t figure it out

if i post my face on here (for a meme) you guys gotta pinkie promise me you won’t laugh :(

@cassyapper thank you for tagging me!!! i’ve never done a tag game before :D

your questions and my answers!

1. do you have a favorite branch of science? get as specific or broad as u want

my favourite branch of science is astrophysics! i’m working rn to get money to go to college to be an astrophysicist. space and quantum maths have always been a huge special interest of mine!

2. does the last song u listened to fit the last character in ur camera roll?

the last song i listened to is Wildflowers by Tom Petty, and the last character(s) in my camera roll are Kujo Jotaro and Kakyoin Noriaki. (they’re in the same image) i do feel like the song fits them extremely well! it’s basically a very sweet song saying “i want you to be happy” and i feel like they both really want that for the other. i feel like Jotaro specifically would tell Kakyoin to go find himself someone else, not because he doesn’t love Kakyoin but because he loves him so much it hurts to see him hurting. and of course we all know that Jotaro believes that when people around him get hurt it’s his fault. i have so many more thoughts on this and i could go on forever lol

3. what's something that gives you a sensory ick?

ough something that gives me a sensory ick is when people touch my hands when they give me something. like bro why are you touching me AND the object you’re handing me. i often make people set things down so i can pick them up myself lol. i’m weird

4. do you eat meat? if so, what's your favorite kind? if not, what's your favorite source of protein?

i am Jewish, so i can’t eat pork, but other than that yeah! meat is a pretty common thing in my household. my brother will often make like five pounds of taco meat at once lmao. my favourite kind of meat is simple deli turkey though. i could eat that stuff by the package (and i have before).

5. laptop, desktop, or tablet?

if given the chance, i will always take a desktop simply because they’re easier for me to use, but currently i have a shitty laptop lol. it can turn into a tablet if i take the keyboard off, but i never use it like that. i mostly use it to read and write, because my art skills are. let’s just say *highly lacking* lol. i’m working on it tho

my questions!!!

1) if you had to choose one cryptid to spend a week as, what would you choose? if you’re already a cryptid, tell me about it!!

2) would your blorbo or a Really Big Dog win in a fight? why?

3) have you ever been to an insectarium? did you enjoy it or were you grossed out? (bonus: did you eat chocolate bugs?)

4) do you prefer spicy or savoury foods? ie would you like something to be spicy just to be hot or be spicy as in have lots of spices for flavour?

5) what is your favourite constellation? if you don’t have one, which planet have you heard/learned the most about?

phew, coming up with questions was harder than i thought it would be! i hope since i asked a few more than five bc of follow up questions that i don’t get disqualified lol.

i don’t know that many people that well, so please feel free to ignore this lol. i’m just tagging people i think are cool who haven’t already been tagged lol.

@fungaljungal @mordenandmerry @meowtallicats @asillylittleduck @scarymonsters-andsupercreeps

feel free to answer these in the comments even if i didn’t tag you!! i’d love to know all of my friends’ answers! :D

mista is anxious about fours being bad luck because he saw four bad luck stones on his way to fight scolippi! please tell me i’m not alone in thinking this! i know he brings up the topic of his childhood neighbour and the kitten chosen from four clawing his eye out but maybe it wasn’t seen as bad luck by him until he started getting nervous about fours after the scolippi arc? am i tripping? please you guys this is important to me

saw this while looking for figures and:

i thought it was about the androgynous symbol but then:

no that’s just how they advertise them lmfao

Also, I took a most perfect picture of a bug yesterday
