More or less, I’d say I do- Pokemon cards are one thing that I hoard, even though I don’t play the card game. Funny, I learned how to play the Pokemon trading card game, but never was able to keep it up because I had nobody to play against. Regardless, I keep a huge binder full of cards, and have just gotten into the habit of compiling them. Maybe if I get the chance I’ll get back in to playing the game!
Honestly, I collect literally anything related to Pokemon. Pokemon was such a HUGE part of my life and still is, so collecting Pokemon-themed items feels like I’m paying homage to something that was a place of safety and joy when I was growing up. Plus, I still adore and enjoy the series. My apartment is littered with Pokemon plushies, I’ve got T-shirts, blankets, posters, games, cards, hats, figurines– you get the picture.
Locket: Take a Selfie
I look like a dumpy queer right now so I’m recycling a photo from the other day when I looked hot af.
Ink: Write a poem and post it.
Hm, writing on the spot is a bit of a challenge. I don’t know if this is cheating, but I’ll post a song I wrote earlier this week that started as a poem. I technically started writing it at the beginning of the month, but wrote most of it the other day after my girlfriend said yes to an exclusive relationship. UvU I’ll put it under the cut since it’s a bit long– please like this post if you read it?
If you like a game and appreciate it, DEFINITELY show your support. Let it be known that you think it’s a great game, that you admire someone’s hard work, that you want other people to have the great experience you did. That’s fine, and okay, and totally awesome to do, especially for indie developers who have a harder time garnering an audience. I think what just gets to me is that with the whole gamefaqs poll, it seems the focus of loving on Undertale in the fandom has been shown by proving how it’s better than other games- people seem especially bent on comparing and crowning it champion over classic games, games that are notoriously popular, etc…. it just comes across as really immature, and it turns me off to the game despite it being a game I played and readily consider one of my absolute favorites. It’s just a shitty attitude to have, I guess, and it’s really grating on my nerves so I had to make a rant about it. If you don’t agree that’s well and dandy, I just needed to put this out there since it’s been bogging down my brain.
I LOVE Undertale to death and I honestly think it is a brilliantly designed and crafted game, but I’m kind of starting to get annoyed by people who gush about how it’s the best gift to mankind and all other games can’t hold a candle to it and it’s the greatest game that has ever been made and will ever be made. Undertale is absolutely an incredibly impressive game, though it’s obnoxious when people act like it has to be asserted over all other games because UNDERTALE IS BETTER AND WE NEED TO HAMMER ON PEOPLE THAT INDUSTRY GAMES AREN’T EVEN GOOD ANYMORE LIKE GET ON THE UNDERTALE LEVEL!!!!
Not for nothing, but I actually feel kind of proud of myself; even when my mental disorders and personality disorders and everything that make me want to be terrible, I’ve managed to mostly confine my anger and frustration here, in a controlled area where nobody is forced to be subjected to it. Yes, in essence, “I’m proud of myself for mostly only being an asshole on my own blog.” Though sometimes that’s the best I can do, even if some people believe that me doing my best is me not trying at all. I don’t know what else to tell you.
If this confined area is one you don’t enjoy, politely leave. I won’t be bothered- it’s your right and choice to surround yourself with things that comfort you and if this blog makes you uncomfortable then you deserve to not read my posts.
I will continue to make jokes and sarcastic posts about cis/white/straight people, as well as reblog them to this confined space. That is how I’m able to best function in response to the things I’m exposed to out and about that I can’t just unfollow or block.
I’m sorry I can’t be more polite right now; although it is most certainly an excuse, I’d still like to mention in passing that trying to have discourse like this while recovering from a nasty virus is not easy nor pleasant.
