random human(?) being

with my dad being a computer technician and showing me the *magic* of the internet at a very young age, growing up on the internet was inevitable. it is often why i felt like i didn’t belong in my own friend groups when i was a teen, because they grew up watching greek tv series and i grew up watching say, doctor who and supernatural before these shows even aired here. i found community online so easily when i should have been cultivating it irl instead.

i lost out on so much of my country’s culture (things that even to this day i am oblivious to) and it’s often a lighthearted laughing matter within my friend group –how much i don’t know about my own country, about actors, artists, memes, references, series, even greek online culture– but it also comes with a heavy sense of not belonging. bc i dont feel like i 100% belong here and i surely don’t 100% belong in any of the English-speaking countries whose culture i have consumed since i was little.

from years ago, still very

relevant i guess

More behind the cut.

i was made fun of enough times by adults, by peers, for liking something and wanting to share it that i just. didn’t. anymore. 

dont fucking tease kids for liking things. even if you think its cringe. ESPECIALLY. if you think its cringe. because the way you speak and act towards them when they are sharing themselves with you STICKS and they will think of it years down the line.

“What’s that you’re drawing?”

*panicking* “It’s nothing, I’m sorry, I’ll put it away.”

“No it’s okay, I was just curious about it.”

“It’s nothing. I don’t want to get in trouble.”

“You’re not in trouble, I just thought it looked like a character from a video game I like.”

Her face *lit up* the second I gave her the smallest bit of approval. She started asking me if I’d heard of various AUs for Undertale, and I tried to follow along as she explained her favorites. I obviously had to keep an eye on the rest of the class, answering questions and helping with algebra, but each time I passed her desk she had more things to tell me.

"Capitalism tends to destroy its two sources of wealth: Nature and Human Beings"

STOP READING HARRY FUCKING POTTER.

I used to be into it! In-depth character analysis, wizard rock, irl quidditch, but when she outed herself as a piece of shit, I couldn't support it anymore!

continuation to this as requested

and that makes it hit so much harder when wifies tells him “I don’t know if I can believe in something that might not even exist” and hummer responds “then believe in me.”

because as the viewer, once you catch the fact that hummer NEVER interacts with anyone other than wifies, you can’t be sure if he exists, any more than wifies is sure the leviathan exists. and suddenly you’re not sure about anything at all.

when wifies joins his server
