An Open Letter To White Emo Kids

An Open Letter to White Emo Kids

When I was thirteen years old, I googled ‘how to be emo.’ The music, the aesthetics, the darkness of it all captivated me. There was transgression there, with boys in makeup and girls who weren’t ashamed to be bisexual. The online emo community on google plus (anyone else remember google plus? Just me?) took me in with open arms. I was allowed to be depressed, I didn’t have to hide my burgeoning sexuality or the starts of my struggle with depression, something I now know was caused by intense amounts of dysphoria and life in an abusive and queerphobic household.

Only, there was one problem. I wasn’t white. 

Certainly, nobody would say they had an issue with me being Latino to my face. Most people in the scene genuinely believed they were not racist. After all, they loved Latino people, they thought the guys in Pierce the Veil were so hot. They appreciated the culture too, sombreros and maracas were the full extent of Mexican culture, right?

you've gotta have friends who are older than you, not because you're a dumb kid, but because you'll be terrified of growing up otherwise

UPDATED GAY GAME DIAGRAM™️ 1.1

UPDATED GAY GAME DIAGRAM™️ 1.1

Patch Notes:

Changed the placements of Celeste and Slime Rancher

Changed description of The Last of Us

Added requested games: Ultrakill, Splatoon, Life is Strange, Fallout New Vegas, The Walking Dead, Dead by Daylight, Smile for Me, & Bugsnax.

!RANDOM DISCLAIMER!

1) Please squint real hard before requesting a game, any games requested and not added were already on there. (Ace Attorney is in 245 next to Corpse Party for the 4 people who asked lol)

2) Th is graph is based on vibes only- nothing makes sense and it’s all arbitrary because I says so

3) I don’t know a lot of games and there’s a lot of games on here I don’t know. I stupid, sorry.

4) My word is fact and anyone who disagrees with my gay science is gay wrong.

5) No I will not rotate the games fuck your eyes

Anyway I plan on updating this with as many games as I can until it’s an indecipherable mess please keep requesting things I’m invested now

hey so we put your boyfriend in a tabletop campaign and now he has a martyr complex. yeah he got protective to the point of being self sacrificial due to his lack of self worth. we gave him a found family so he had something to live for but instead he’s just committed to being a human shield to keep them safe even if it kills him. sorry

mental illness made me so desperate for joy that i forgot it was this simple… feeling the ocean against your skin… a really good guitar riff… sun on your back… holding the door for a stranger… a cold shower on a hot day…….. the world is like a cradle and i am just a little baby. eyes wide open there is so much to see

Mi Cariño Quiere Acompañarme En Las Tareas :) Tengo Mucho Sueño Pero Ya A Gastado Demasiado Tiempo

mi cariño quiere acompañarme en las tareas :) tengo mucho sueño pero ya a gastado demasiado tiempo en este papel y lo necesito terminarlo ya (actualmente la fecha de vencimiento fue hace 6 días…AHHHHH) . la escritura es difícil para mi por que no tengo ningún sentido de lo que quiero decir, o tal vez mi problema es que no puedo cometer. ya es mi cuarto año en el colegio y todavía no me cae bien escribir papeles. y ya pronto voy a tener que generar un papel grandísimo(tote) para mi thesis de mierda. alguien…sácame de este puta infierno..por dios
