I May Be Stupid But I Genuinely Cannot Figure Out If Curly Or Angela Is Older If Anyone Knows Please

the dysphoria is quite present today but I can't even wear my friggin binder because I have so much sports going on that it causes breathing problems

cherry x johnny is ADORABLE but also hating on cherry for not visiting him is gen so odd because they barely knew each other in canon and what he did to help at the drive in was BASIC HUMAN DECENCY and he killed her bf like???

my mom lives in a different state and is probably so tired of me randomly calling her to yap about sylvia, why she is overhated, and theories about her.

+js general outsiders stuff

why is arguing with conventionally attractive people so humiliating?? like I will be arguing online with someone about an issue im passionate about but when I check their profile and see that they're very conventionally attractive I feel a wave of nausea and shame. I don't fully get why because i dont get into arguments if im not confident that im right. My guess is that it has more to do with the fact that them being easy on the eyes means that they already naturally have a better chance at people being on their side before the arguments are even made. I dont know I've been doing well lately but I also feel very isolated. I dont think im ugly or anything but im not very good looking either, I have a shitty, hard to like personality, and im trans. The three of those things combined make me feel very separated from those around me. I am going very off topic and kind of just rambling like I do in conversation (which I've been told isn't conversation if youre rambling but anyway) but I dont know. I am usually very confident in my arguments and beliefs but I wish that didnt waver as much as it does when I encounter someone who is attractive or likable.

this is a more serious post and vague TW for suicide

does anyone have any advice on how to help someone who is suicidal/get them to not kts? the person who is the reason im making this post isn't CURRENTLY trying to end it but they were a few months ago and I feel like it won't be the last time. I tried my best to help them last time and get them to keep living and they did but looking back on it I said a few insensitive things in an attempt to keep them alive and other than that spent the whole week-ish period just begging them to not do it and I want to know how I can help if/when it happens again. Ive dealt with suicidal thoughts/impulses in the past, (i dont have them really now dw) but they've never gotten to the level where I'd consider myself suicidal as I've never attempted or fully wanted to follow through with it, more just a struggle to find meaning or purpose so I dont fully know what it feels like and I want to help.

sorry this one is a bit heavier than usual but I was thinking about them and wanted to be a bit more prepared for future incidents.

take care <3

🌸 From One Mother’s Heart – Please Read 🌸

My name is Saja. I’m a wife, a mother, and a woman who once believed her story would be simple. I thought my days would be filled with watching my daughter grow — from her first smile to her first steps — surrounded by the small joys of everyday life.

But life had other plans.

War has returned to our home. Again. And once again, we find ourselves living under skies that never seem to rest.

There was a moment — a fragile, breathless moment — when the bombs paused and the world seemed to remember us. It gave us hope. We thought maybe, just maybe, we could start to rebuild. But now, we are back in the dark — hiding, holding on, praying.

I’m writing this not as someone seeking pity, but as a mother who has no other choice but to speak.

Imagine holding your baby in the middle of the night, not because she cried, but because the world outside roared too loud for either of you to sleep. Imagine whispering bedtime stories not to lull her into dreams, but to keep the fear from settling into her tiny bones.

This is my life.

This is my daughter’s life.

And even now — especially now — I believe in softness. I believe in kindness. Because when everything else is taken from you, hope becomes the most valuable thing you have.

Why I’m Reaching Out Our home has been damaged. Our lives changed. But through it all, my daughter wakes up every morning with a smile. She reaches for me with trust, with love, with faith that I will keep her safe.

That’s why I keep going.

I’ve launched a campaign to ask for help — not because it’s easy, but because silence is no longer an option. I am asking for support not just for me, but for my baby, and for the quiet strength of so many mothers like me who are fighting, every single day, to hold their families together.

How You Can Help: 🤍 Help us restore parts of our home so we can live with dignity 🤍 Support women and mothers in Gaza with access to care and resources 🤍 Keep the light of hope alive for a generation born in the shadows of war

💛 If you can, please support our journey here:

I Am Saja – A Mother Holding On Through the Return of War

My name is Saja. I am a wife, a mother to a precious 8-month-old girl, and I am writing this in a moment that I wish I didn’t have to live t

If you can’t give, please consider sharing. Your voice might be the reason someone else hears ours.

From My Heart to Yours Maybe our lives are worlds apart. Maybe you’ve never lived through war. But if you’ve ever held a child and wished the world could be better for them — then you understand more than you know.

I don’t want my daughter to grow up thinking the world turned away.

Please, if you’ve read this far — thank you. Thank you for seeing us. Thank you for caring. We are still here. Still hoping. Still holding on to every kind act like it’s a lifeline.

With love and endless gratitude

never in my life have I experienced gender envy as acute as watchin ralph maccio in any 80s movie. dear christ almighty I want what he has more then life itself.

Happy birthday pookie 🥺

@vickypersch: Did you forget Johnny or was that intentional 😂😂😂

Me: So…funny story… (I swear I love Johnny. I do.)

I wasn’t sure at all what I wanted to draw for Steve’s birthday. I didn’t have a direction at all. I thought about drawing OG Steve and Mexican Steve interacting. I also thought about doing a sketch dump for 🇲🇽Steve like I did for Johnny’s b-day. So, I just started with a sketch of 🇲🇽Steve in the center and began to build around that.

So, there’s 🇲🇽Steve, bein all cute, then I drew—what I thought was going to be OG Steve but ended up being—Soda, and then I drew Two-Bit on the other side of him. And since I drew Two and Soda I figured I had to draw Ponyboy! So I squeezed Pony in by having him hang off Soda (because he’s his and Steve’s little tag along ya know? and Soda and Pony are just like that anyways). And since I added Pony I had to draw Darry! So I got away with him being a little taller than everyone else cause that’s just how I imagine him, and then I realized; 🧍🏽‍♀️I don’t have any room for Johnny and Dally….🫥

It was a major dilemma last night. I was having a crisis. I seriously didn’t know where tf to put them.

And because I don’t believe in post canon 🙂‍↔️ I couldn’t leave them out. I just…couldn’t…it’s too morbid for me to exclude them. Sorry, I don’t like being ✨sad✨ (hence the date: pre-canon, although…it’d still be sad cause Mama and Papa Curtis would’ve JUST died…)

SO I squeezed Dally in behind Two and the humor of Soda’s hand covering his face is cute. And Johnny being absolutely enveloped by the group was such a silly idea that I just went ahead and made Johnny a singular arm 💀 —the irony of him holding the lighter is intentional btw.
