Sometimes I Look At Mr.Plant And Think Plant Related Questions.

“what if kids identify with something and it ends up just being a phase-?” good. stop teaching and expecting kids (and adults honestly) to formulate permanent traits and ideas of themselves. everything in life is a phase. that doesn’t make it any less legitimate while you experience it. let people explore themselves and know it’s okay if what you think about yourself changes.

I got tired of the criminally small amount of asl emotes there are out there so i made my own B) happy, sad, scared, angry, tired, play, and cat [last two of which were requests]

feel free to use them [just credit us ^^]

Looking cool is overrated anyway 🫣💜

Bothering the beast

My dear lgbt+ kids, 

Let’s talk about safety on first dates. 

If you meet up with someone you met online (on a dating app or otherwise), you’ll probably have your safety in mind anyway. After all, you’re essentially meeting up with a total stranger and no matter how sweet they were online, they could be completely different in person. But even if you go on a date with someone you already know: dating is a vulnerable situation. It’s always better to keep some safety measures in mind, so it can be a comfortable experience. 

Some things to consider: 

Tell a trusted friend about the date. (If you’re a minor, tell an adult.) Let them know who you are meeting, where you’ll meet them and when you expect to be back. If you are closeted, it’s better to lie and say you’re meeting an online friend than to not tell anyone at all! 

Choose a public location where other people are present. A coffee shop or a busy park are great options. 

It’s best to not rely on your date for a ride back home. Arrange your own transportation, so you have the freedom to cut the date short on your own terms. (This still applies if you don’t have your own car! Look up public transportation schedules and take enough money with you to be able to call a cab if necessary.) 

Don’t get drunk. You may think some drinks will ease your nerves, but it’ll also make you less aware of your surroundings and impair your judgement. 

Never leave your beverage unattended. Get a new one if you lost sight of it. (Spiking a beverage with a date rape drug can happen within seconds, and you won’t necessarily be able to taste or see that it has been tampered with!) 

If your date refuses to agree on safety measures (for example, they insist on meeting up at their house and get upset when you explain you want to meet up in a public space), take that as a red flag. Obviously this doesn’t have to mean they plan on murdering you, but it definitely shows that they’re not considerate and respectful of your boundaries. 

Don’t be afraid to „make a scene“. If your date is trying to coerce or intimidate you into something you don’t feel comfortable with, if they’re touching you against your will etc., you don’t need to be polite. Draw attention to the situation. Get loud. Call for help. Scream. Don’t worry about being „rude“, do what you need to do to get away from a dangerous situation. 

With all my love, 

Your Tumblr Dad

Why is Lloyd the literal definition of those overpowered hybrid princess main characters in gacha life mini movies with a concerning amount of trauma

Lloyd is basically the legendary prophesied green ninja destined to battle the literal embodiment of evil when he was a mere child AND with a broken foot (spoiler alert: he won)

Not only that he was also homeless AND parentless for a portion of his life when he was a bratty child longing for the comfort of his own nonexistent family. Then he found out that he was the grandson of a god and was a part-dragon, part-oni, half human hybrid which is CRAZY work.

Bro could literally transform into a gold four-armed monster if provoked (but unfortunately the writers most likely forgot about that trait) AND WE HAVE YET TO SEE WHAT HIS DRAGON FORM MAY LOOK LIKE!!!

TL;DR : "The hated and homeless child turns out to be a legendary green hero with a fuck ton of trauma and little to no parental guidance throughout his life"

just like a cokey cola……
