number of nail polish stains on my floor: 2

I want to eat icecream... :P

I hate rain and screaming birds and itchy vines. I want to roll around in snow. I want to hear the crunch in my cleats.

ECLIPSE! ECLIPSE! ECLIPSE! [emoji=aether star size=2]

I have damily over but I won’t spend any time with them because I have home work and they’re leaving soon and it’s all my fault because I procrastinated all day aaa

i really think the word "cringe" to describe interests you don't like or whatever should be retired. i see so many people afraid of being who they are because they're afraid of being perceived as "cringe". it's gross! humans are pack animals, so it's common to want approval from others. but you shouldn't have to hide things about yourself/who you are/what you like from people who you want approval from. get better friends, find a community even if it's only you and two other people.

all this to say i hope everyone, including myself, embraces who they are and what they love more and becomes their true selves.

Can there be a copy of pokemon black and/or white that isn't over $100 please and thank you

[/quote] @darkpassage [b]THIS THIS THIS! Louder for the people in the back![/b] Honestly, this is exactly why I don't support "cringe culture." Let people enjoy the things that they love without fear of being made fun of. "Cringe" is just a term people use to invalidate someone's interests. As long as it's not harming anyone else, just because someone doesn't personally like that content does not necessarily make it bad. People are all different, and have varying things that matter to them or speak to them. What may be incredibly meaningful to one person has no affect on another. But that's no reason to shoot someone down. I especially see this term get tossed around with people's AuDHD hyperfixations, and it frustrates me to no end, acting like neurodivergent people are just people "silly" or "childish" with their interests, and honestly, that's so ableist. People can have fun with whatever they want (again, as long as it's not hurting others). I'm so tired of seeing people just try to tear others down or make them feel like they can't be themselves or like what they like, or are afraid to admit what they're interested in because it's met with such societal backlash. That's really not okay. It needs to stop!
