Your personal Tumblr journey starts here
Too true. Parents look to their children for flaws, not to themselves. They watch their kids never ask for help, not knowing how to, and get scolded for it, when the parents either don't ask for help themselves, or never actually need to, so the kids never learn to ask for help.
im so done with seeing articles about kids and screen time that doesnt mention parent behaviors even once. “kids are always on their phones” so are the parents! which the kids look to for how they should behave! ipad babies didn’t chose to only play on their ipads, thats what their parents gave them!
an anecdotal example: when i was a kid, all my parents would do in their minimal free time was watch tv and then they would be surprised when in my sister and i’s minimal free time we would also only watch tv/play video games. they scolded us for not reading books, but they never read books. they scolded us for not going outside but they never went outside.
“kids are always on their damn phones” my mom is in her 60s and opens up candy crush anytime she’s sitting — it isnt just the kids
when the FUCK did tumblr premium become a thing, it messed up my old layout fix thing, fuck this shit man
Arg. Sorry that the Vol 4 and Vol 5 MDZS are taking so long to post notes on.
Since flying through two volumes of 2Ha in absolute awe of the gorgeous translation, I’m having the hardest time getting through even Vol 4 of MDZS. I spent days wondering how to better translate 乌合之众. I fumed for too long over the choice to use “why don’t you” as the translation for 不如 —- it’s not wrong, it’s just…
I wish that 7 Seas had chosen a more experienced team to translate. I’m glad that they got someone familiar with fandom, but a lot of these word choices are killing me.
I love complaining. Complaining is such a universal activity.
Early in the week, it’s Monday 🙄
Hungry, I haven’t eaten In AGES
Tired, I need a nap
The complaints just keep coming
I’ll complain about school, I’ll complain about classmates, I’ll complain about being trans, I’ll complain about being mentally ill.
I don’t actually want to fix anything I just LOVE to complain
A reminder that being an introvert isn't a negative trait. And I think people should get that in their head.
When your "I'm only comfortable with people i know" type of person is interpreted as "I'm too good for everyone and everything except those whom i approve of" like, no no no, i really wanna participate in the parties and dancing and your fun activities etc etc but in front of everyone ??? Nah I'll pass. Just let me sit in peace and enjoy the damn event.
