Ok, looks like I got the hang of this. So, I graduated with my degree in electrical engineering, currently trying to become an actual adult at an actual adult job lol. My current obsessions are (in no particular order) Sailor Moon, Legend of Korra, Steven Universe, Pokemon, and Kingdom Hearts.

I enjoy playing the piano, cooking, learning new languages, and making new friends, so please don't feel intimidated to talk to me or anything

here’s a quick tip for life: if you hate someone and you have a choice in the matter, keep their name out of your mouth and the reasons you hate them out of your head. keep your head on a swivel around people who habitually break this guideline because they’re just as capable of obsessive negativity about you
genuinely “living rent-free in your head” is a curse. obessing yourself with people you find odious who don’t have the actual power to harm you does nothing good for your life. there is immense strength in walking the fuck away and treating someone as dead to you, not half-living in their shadow.
never will forget the gay porn I watched where the director quietly told the bottom to “lose the anime voice” and you could see overwhelming disillusionment form in his eyes
