I love seeing people’s picrew art styles because you can just look at them and be like
“You read homestuck and it was a big part of your life for a few years, you’re not into steven universe but you did watch it, and you had an intense black butler phase in middle school and doodled their eyes over and over again in your spiral notebooks”
Fandom still characterizes Chara as a stabby, mean, out-of-control child even in life...
...but the fact is, Chara made monsters lose their fear of humans after thousands of years.
What kind of child could do that?
What kind of child could give the Underground hope it didn't have for millennia?
When Chara fell into the Underground, monsters still lived in the Ruins.
Monsters were so afraid of humans that they lived on the far side of the cavern from the barrier.
That's why Asriel has a chair and room in the Ruins.
That's why there's concept art of Chara and Asriel playing in the leaves under the tree in the Ruins.
Chara fell in the Ruins while monsters still lived there, too afraid of humans to venture closer to the barrier.
That's why Asriel heard them call for help.
And why one of their flower drawings is in Asriel's room.
Asgore was convinced there was no hope of leaving, since humans would kill them anyway.
...until one human child changed his mind.
There's a missing history book between these two passages:
The reason monsters stopped fearing the other side of the Underground was Chara.
This book is book 4:
The reason Asgore changed his mind about humans being remorseless killers is because of Chara.
During their life, monsters saw Chara as a beacon of hope and a part of the royal family.
Asgore in particular adored Chara and put his hopes into them.
If Chara were violent or mean, the Underground wouldn't have lost their fear of humans.
The Underground saw Chara as a playful, loving, hopeful child.
And to some extent, they were.
Chara wanted things to work out, too.
But I think they suffered some severe imposter syndrome, likely due to their hatred of humanity.
Hatred that would, naturally, include Chara themself.
I think after nearly killing their adoptive father, Chara decided humans were all evil and the only way they could be redeemed...
...was to shatter the barrier at the cost of their own life.
Chara lost hope. But the Dreemurrs still remember the person they were.
Asgore and Toriel remember their glass-filling habit fondly.
Asgore and Toriel take care of Chara's flowers.
And Asriel, who knew them best, and now understands they weren't really the greatest person in the world...
...still spends his last moments as himself at their grave.
He still fills the water in the glass the same way they did.
At the end of Pacifist, he talks to Chara and assures them everyone will be okay.
I think that says a lot about the kind of person Chara was when they were alive.
Chara was not the Underground's demon.
Taking a psych assessment thing online and they had me stare at god damn shapes for like 20 minutes and pressing a button when two were the same I feel like I’ve been reprogrammed
I just remembered one time in like sixth or seventh grade (we had the same teachers and class both years so hard to remember which) somehow we got into a debate of “who is better, boys or girls?” and instead of stepping in to stop it our teacher formalized it and egged us on by providing thoughtful prompts and counters to each side and by the end each group had built a barricade of desks on either side of the classroom and we were throwing balls of paper at each other and screaming about personal hygiene while our teacher just watched and enjoyed a Baby Ruth candy bar.
If yes or used to please say in the tags whats it's name,what animal it is and how old it is"

so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god
i'm begging you guys to start pirating shit from streaming platforms. there are so many websites where you can stream that shit for free, here's a quick HOW TO:
1) Search for: watch TITLE OF WORK free online
2) Scroll to the bottom of results. Click any of the "Complaint" links
3) You will be taken to a long list of links that were removed for copyright infringement. Use the 'find' function to search for the name of the show/movie you were originally searching for. You will get something like this (specifics removed because if you love an illegal streaming site you don't post its url on social media)
4) each of these links is to a website where you can stream shit for free. go to the individual websites and search for your show/movie. you might have to copy-paste a few before you find exactly what you're looking, but the whole process only takes a minute. the speed/quality is usually the same as on netflix/whatever, and they even have subtitles! (make sure to use an adblocker though, these sites are funded by annoying popups)
In conclusion, if you do this often enough you will start recognizing the most dependable websites, and you can just bookmark those instead. (note: this is completely separate from torrenting, which is also a beautiful thing but requires different software and a vpn)
you can also download the media in question (look for a "download" button built into the video window, or use a browser extension such as Video DownloadHelper.)
so last semester, my new roommate, without consulting anyone else, put up these stupid wall stickers. and I had to live with em alllll year.
(ignore the tapestry, that's mine)
so, end of the school year starts coming up, we're gonna have to take the damn things down anyway. so I decide to have some fun with it.
on sunday, while roomie was away at work, I took the stickers off the wall and started cutting up the letters. and this was what she found when she came home.
this was just above the couch, the first thing you'd see upon walking in the door. and my favorite of all, in the corner where the couch met the wall:
the next day, while I was in class, she came home and saw it. and promptly began acting like I did not exist.
It was the greatest week I'd had since moving in.
but only a week. one day, I texted our collective roommate group chat that I was taking an online test, and that I'd need quiet for about 2 hours or so. and when I finished, I left my room to find bare walls where my art once was, and a ball of letters in the trash can.
so I fished it out. and left this.
but I wasn't done quite yet. I fished out a couple favorites and put them back up in my room (partly bc I had gotten a bit attached to nut,)
now, you might notice that "tit" has lost its "s". that s now serves a greater purpose:
forming the word "penis" that I hid on the wall behind the couch before I moved out.
suffice to say, that roommate hasn't talked to me since.
