Curly Hair Mc Would Be Saur Cute

if you're feeling powerless right now—and god knows I am—here's a reminder you can donate to the National Network of Abortion Funds, the Trans Law Center, Gaza Soup Kitchen, the Palestine Children's Relief Fund, and hundreds of other charities that will work to mitigate the damage that has been and will continue to be inflicted

life continues. we still have the capacity to do good, important work. that matters

i feel like you could’ve been nicer to me today w/ izuku and katsuki

izuku

y/n why do you want to break his heart so badly?

today was slow, the two of you just lazed around in your dorm

the day consisted of watching documentaries and making your own theories while he held you close

“be right back, gonna get us some taiyaki!” he smiled and hopped up

when he left you whipped out your phone and scrolled on tiktok until you found a rather cute prank

you stretched and sat under the kotatsu and waited for him to get back

when he did you let 3 minutes pass before pressing record

“baby.” “hm?” “i think you could’ve been nicer to me today...”

zuku’ choked on his fish cake and stared big eyed at you, he set it down and dusted the crumbs off of his fingers before fully facing you

“i’m sorry...” “it’s alright.” “baby, how was i rude? i’ll make it up to you.”

katsuki

this boy always knows when you’re pranking him

he’s like an undercover lie detector

but he needs a few moments to activate, why not prank him after the nap that he took in your dorm?

you understand that he was tired from school but you were tired of not getting attention

bakugou woke up from a good nap, a little drool, lines on his face and arms, back cracking as soon as he raised up, and the sight of you to top it all off

but something wasn’t right, you were slouched over the small table and pouting

“what’s the matter?” he grumbled, “i feel like you could’ve been nicer to me today.” “huh... what’d i say? whatever, m’sorry.”

he was not the one for prolonged conversations straight out of his slumber, and was less aggressive during this time

he got up and pecked your forehead with a small, “don’t be upset, i’ll give you some attention when i get outta’ the shower, m’kay?”

you smiled and nodded, posting the video immediately after he left

Please reblog this even if you don’t care

They’re trying to erase the existence of the rape victims of Japanese soldiers in World War II because they think the reminder of their crimes might make Japan a little bit cross

Duterte, the absolute coward, is more worried about women criticizing him than actually honoring the women this country needs to remember

Please don’t let these women be silenced.

Bakugo, Aizawa, Shinsou, and Mirio reacting to their black!s/o calling them “Baby” or “Honey” 🥺

this is really cute🥺

KATSUKI BAKUGO

Y’all were just moving into the dorms after the little rescue mission Kirishima and Todoroki put together

Y’all were getting settled in until Mina suggested a room contest and you participated for fun

You gave them a mini tour of your room and it resulted in a 2 minute interrogation from Mina asking where you got your bonnets from

Y’all made it to Bakugo’s room, and everyone left assuming that he wasn’t feeling well

You knocked on his door ”Baby are you in there?” You waited for a response and when you didn’t get one you leaned your back against the door

What you didn’t know was that Bakugo was melting behind the door as you told him about the little contest that y’all were doing

Honestly he couldn’t focus on much cause his mind was just like “They called me baby” and it’s not new to him

It just hits different at a time like this

He opened the door and you were like “oh, okay 😀” thinking you were about to fall until you felt arms around you

Bakugo hid his face in the crook of your neck and quietly asked you if you could stay

You turned around and smiled at him “Of course Katsu”

SHOUTA AIZAWA

You were doing Eri’s hair into cute little braided pigtails so you and Eri could spend the day together

Since it was the morning you still had your bonnet on, since you weren’t really ready to head out

You and Eri were having a cute little conversation about the cartoon that you put on for her

You tied off each braid with two red rubber bands, she started to stand up cause she thought she was done, you smiled softly and said “One more thing Eri.” You reached for the hair pin but you left it in the bathroom

“Honey could you get me the apple hair pin in the bathroom?”

He looked up from his spot at the counter with a coffee in his hands and just froze, it felt like y’all were a little family with Eri in the mix

He nodded at you to get the apple hair pin, even thought it was a short walk he was smiling the whole time

HITOSHI SHINSOU

Y’all were at a restaurant on a little date

Y’all sat outside cause sometimes outside seats be hitting sometimes

You were waiting for your food to come, until the sun just hit right highlighting your features

He was just staring at you, and the device that let you know your order is ready started beeping but he didn’t notice

You giggled a bit when you noticed him staring at you “Baby our order is ready”

On top of seeing you look like a Deity you said that?

He blushed a bit at the mention of the nickname and went to get the food

He had such a cute little dorky grin on his face while he waited in the line to pick up y’all’s order

MIRIO TOGATA

Park date!

Cause y’all cute like that, and the nicknames, so sweet it could probably give you a cavity

Anyways you decided to take him to the park, to cheer him up after what had happened on a recent mission that caused him to lose his quirk

You noticed how he wore a fake smiled and you hoped a small little park date would at least give him a genuine smile even if it was a small one

You noticed an ice cream cart and asked if he was down for some ice cream with a smile on your face, he returned your smile and y’all walked hand in hand to the cart

You were looking at the flavor selection and asked “Hey honey which one did you want again?”

Something just clicked in his mind and like I said it just hits different

He said what flavor he wanted with a small smile on his face and you were like “This happy over ice cream? I guess my job here is done” you giggled a bit upon noticing the small smile he had on his face

WASH DAY W/ MIDORIYA

👩🏽‍💻self inflicted because I just detangled my hair and brung it’s moisture back to life

includes : midoriya x black reader

“zuku- are you just gonna stare or are you gonna help me?” You teased the boy looking in the mirror reflection to see him in awe staring right back down at you.

“Right! Sorry but your hair is just so pretty.” You felt your cheeks get hot at the compliment- since it wasn’t really you best appearance with a comb stuck in the middle of a part and cream oozing out of each braid to secure its moisture and definition.

You handed him the thick comb looking into his eyes, “comb this part out for me?” He nodded staring at the strand of hair lightly combing it out - since he didn’t know how tenderheaded you were(and has nightmares of inko snatching the shit out his scalp as a kid when detangling his hate but anyways)

he securely braided the part, twirling his finger over the ends to coil it. “Wow, I didn’t know you knew how to braid” you observed his section , giving him another piece, “you should help me more often.” You hummed, starting another section.

Baking! Headcanons

Characters: Kirishima, Tamaki, and Taishiro (Fat Gum)

Warnings: fluffiness overload?? ok there’s like a tiny mention of suggestive activities but nothing compared to what y’all see every day on this sin hole of a website

most if not all SWF

A/N: In honor of these three’s heroism in the last few episodes. Let them have a normal day you cowards! Also, I felt kind of seasonal and wanted to see my boos bake some cookies with their S/O 

Kirishima Eijrou:

this is my baby fr fr

such a beautiful and good boi it makes my heart hurt

like, how does he???

okay, focus!

baking would be a manly sport filled with smiles, laughter, and a bit of disorganized mixing

both of you aren’t amazing cooks, but you can follow directions well!

i see him being into chocolate 

he doesn’t have it much because of hero training™ so he’s super excited to bake some sweets

especially with you

bc you’re just a treat to be around

see what i did there?

spends half the time “accidentally” bumping into you to get the ingredients together

“oh, let me get the vanilla extract for you”

*hip bumps you*

“you need the whisk? i got it”

*places a lingering hand on your lowerback*

damn it kirishima you’re supposed to be  b a k i n g ! !

will “show you the proper way to mix” by getting behind you and holding your hands

you just quirk a brow, but let it happen

he ain’t slick tho

when the mix is in the oven, you both lick the spoon clean

when you take some batter off his face with your finger and lick it, he’ll literally implode 

all that devilish handsome machoness disappears in .2 secs

you tease him and he’ll whine about it before tickling you to get you back

idk why or how but y’all break out in song and dance 

I’ll Make a Man Out of You is the song ofc

the timer goes off and you both enjoy your sweets with bright smiles and a kiss here n there

Tamaki Amajki:

another pure and beautiful boi who deserves nothing but the best

but i digress

y’all would have some nice holiday music in the background

it would be something soothing like acapella, jazz (KennyG), or slow songs from the queen of Christmas Mariah Carey

it’s a relaxing environment and he doesn’t feel nervous 

although you always make him nervous bc you’re just so pretty but anyway

you’ve decided to bake some sugar cookies with homemade icing!

you work on getting the icing together and he’s preparing the batter

at first, it’s kind of silent besides the little “can you pass the butter” or “can you set the oven to 350 pls”

but then, you two start making conversation and talk about everything and nothing at all

“did you see the trailer for that new horror movie?”

“Mirio was telling me something about a crying blonde lady and a cat? do you know about it?”

“did you know that some turtles can breathe through their butt”

“you have very pretty eyes”

reader-error.exe

the batter is put in the oven and whiles you two wait, you’re leaning against one another, enjoying the other’s company

it’s just such a soft atmosphere it’s something out of a storybook

like, you both just compliment the other and it’s soothing

tamaki is so happy he’s found someone he can just be silent and happy with

once they’re done, you shape them into cute characters like gingerbread men, doves, bells, etc. then they’re decorated with icing and sprinkles

the cookies look like something out of a show

you shared it with the other students and they asked you two to forget about being heroes and open up a bakery

it’s bakugo approved!

Taishiro Toyomitsu (Fat Gum):

\two gifs for the duality of man!

you’re 20+ in this btw bc minors + adults + dating = illegal/wrong/unacceptable

when he’s with his s/o, he’s such a big teddy bear

he’s usually upbeat and easy-going, but he’s just a lot softer and cheery in your presence

you just remind him of the easier things in life

ofc, baking is no foreign custom in the Taishiro household! your mans eats enough for an entire city!

but the gag is, as much as he likes to eat, he’s a horrible cook

even when he tries to follow a cookbook, it just never goes right

you shoo him from the kitchen bc you ain’t getting food poisoning

no sirrr, not in Beyoncé’s economy 

but he doesn’t listen to you

the most playful when it comes to baking

you try to ignore him as you make the cupcakes (save for a few snickers here n there)

will use his freakishly abnormal height (in hero form he’s like 8ft, but deflated i hc him to be like 6′5) to hold the spoon above your head

you cuss him out

“little boy if you don’t give me back my damn spoon–”

“little? is that what you think now?”

“I–”

“that’s not what you were saying two days ago”

“Toyomitsu!”

he’s a disrespectful lil shit but it makes you smile, curse him

once he realizes that the baking isnt going anywhere and he’s highkey starving, he’ll chill out

actually wants to help so you allow him to set the oven, set the timer, and put the tray in

“why don’t we crank it up by 200 degrees and shave off ten minutes”

“no”

he’ll cuddle you and talk to pass the time

once they’re done, you barely manage to take them out before he dives in

literally sings, “oh i’m about to diiiiivvveee in…splash~”

y’know, that song by Trey Songz

you two eat them and he swears he’s going to propose in the next week

Planet's Fucked: What Can You Do To Help? (Long Post)

Since nobody is talking about the existential threat to the climate and the environment a second Trump term/Republican government control will cause, which to me supersedes literally every other issue, I wanted to just say my two cents, and some things you can do to help. I am a conservation biologist, whose field was hit substantially by the first Trump presidency. I study wild bees, birds, and plants.

In case anyone forgot what he did last time, he gagged scientists' ability to talk about climate change, he tried zeroing budgets for agencies like the NOAA, he attempted to gut protections in the Endangered Species Act (mainly by redefining 'take' in a way that would allow corporations to destroy habitat of imperiled species with no ramifications), he tried to do the same for the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (the law that offers official protection for native non-game birds), he sought to expand oil and coal extraction from federal protected lands, he shrunk the size of multiple national preserves, HE PULLED US OUT OF THE PARIS CLIMATE AGREEMENT, and more.

We are at a crucial tipping point in being able to slow the pace of climate change, where we decide what emissions scenario we will operate at, with existential consequences for both the environment and people. We are also in the middle of the Sixth Mass Extinction, with the rate of species extinctions far surpassing background rates due completely to human actions. What we do now will determine the fate of the environment for hundreds or thousands of years - from our ability to grow key food crops (goodbye corn belt! I hated you anyway but), to the pressure on coastal communities that will face the brunt of sea level rise and intensifying extreme weather events, to desertification, ocean acidification, wildfires, melting permafrost (yay, outbreaks of deadly frozen viruses!), and a breaking down of ecosystems and ecosystem services due to continued habitat loss and species declines, especially insect declines. The fact that the environment is clearly a low priority issue despite the very real existential threat to so many people, is beyond my ability to understand. I do partly blame the public education system for offering no mandatory environmental science curriculum or any at all in most places. What it means is that it will take the support of everyone who does care to make any amount of difference in this steeply uphill battle.

There are not enough environmental scientists to solve these issues, not if public support is not on our side and the majority of the general public is either uninformed or actively hostile towards climate science (or any conservation science).

So what can you, my fellow Americans, do to help mitigate and minimize the inevitable damage that lay ahead?

I'm not going to tell you to recycle more or take shorter showers. I'll be honest, that stuff is a drop in the bucket. What does matter on the individual level is restoring and protecting habitat, reducing threats to at-risk species, reducing pesticide use, improving agricultural practices, and pushing for policy changes. Restoring CONNECTIVITY to our landscape - corridors of contiguous habitat - will make all the difference for wildlife to be able to survive a changing climate and continued human population expansion.

**Caveat that I work in the northeast with pollinators and birds so I cannot provide specific organizations for some topics, including climate change focused NGOs. Scientists on tumblr who specialize in other fields, please add your own recommended resources. **

We need two things: FUNDING and MANPOWER.

You may surprised to find that an insane amount of conservation work is carried out by volunteers. We don't ever have the funds to pay most of the people who want to help. If you really really care, consider going into a conservation-related field as a career. It's rewarding, passionate work.

At the national level, please support:

The Nature Conservancy

Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation

Cornell Lab of Ornithology (including eBird)

National Audubon Society

Federal Duck Stamps (you don't need to be a hunter to buy one!)

These first four work to acquire and restore critical habitat, change environmental policy, and educate the public. There is almost certainly a Nature Conservancy-owned property within driving distance of you. Xerces plays a very large role in pollinator conservation, including sustainable agriculture, native bee monitoring programs, and the Bee City/Bee Campus USA programs. The Lab of O is one of the world's leaders in bird research and conservation. Audubon focuses on bird conservation. You can get annual memberships to these organizations and receive cool swag and/or a subscription to their publications which are well worth it. You can also volunteer your time; we need thousands of volunteers to do everything from conducting wildlife surveys, invasive species removal, providing outreach programming, managing habitat/clearing trails, planting trees, you name it. Federal Duck Stamps are the major revenue for wetland conservation; hunters need to buy them to hunt waterfowl but anyone can get them to collect!

THERE ARE DEFINITELY MORE, but these are a start.

Additionally, any federal or local organizations that seek to provide support and relief to those affected by hurricanes, sea level rise, any form of coastal climate change...

At the regional level:

These are a list of topics that affect major regions of the United States. Since I do not work in most of these areas I don't feel confident recommending specific organizations, but please seek resources relating to these as they are likely major conservation issues near you.

PRAIRIE CONSERVATION & PRAIRIE POTHOLE WETLANDS

DRYING OF THE COLORADO RIVER (good overview video linked)

PROTECTION OF ESTUARIES AND SALTMARSH, ESPECIALLY IN THE DELAWARE BAY AND LONG ISLAND (and mangroves further south, everglades etc; this includes restoring LIVING SHORELINES instead of concrete storm walls; also check out the likely-soon extinction of saltmarsh sparrows)

UNDAMMING MAJOR RIVERS (not just the Colorado; restoring salmon runs, restoring historic floodplains)

NATIVE POLLINATOR DECLINES (NOT honeybees. for fuck's sake. honeybees are non-native domesticated animals. don't you DARE get honeybee hives to 'save the bees')

WILDLIFE ALONG THE SOUTHERN BORDER (support the Mission Butterfly Center!)

INVASIVE PLANT AND ANIMAL SPECIES (this is everywhere but the specifics will differ regionally, dear lord please help Hawaii)

LOSS OF WETLANDS NATIONWIDE (some states have lost over 90% of their wetlands, I'm looking at you California, Ohio, Illinois)

INDUSTRIAL AGRICULTURE, esp in the CORN BELT and CALIFORNIA - this is an issue much bigger than each of us, but we can work incrementally to promote sustainable practices and create habitat in farmland-dominated areas. Support small, local farms, especially those that use soil regenerative practices, no-till agriculture, no pesticides/Integrated Pest Management/no neonicotinoids/at least non-persistent pesticides. We need more farmers enrolling in NRCS programs to put farmland in temporary or permanent wetland easements, or to rent the land for a 30-year solar farm cycle. We've lost over 99% of our prairies to corn and soybeans. Let's not make it 100%.

INDIGENOUS LAND-BACK EFFORTS/INDIGENOUS LAND MANAGEMENT/TEK (adding this because there have been increasing efforts not just for reparations but to also allow indigenous communities to steward and manage lands either fully independently or alongside western science, and it would have great benefits for both people and the land; I know others on here could speak much more on this. Please platform indigenous voices)

HARMFUL ALGAL BLOOMS (get your neighbors to stop dumping fertilizers on their lawn next to lakes, reduce agricultural runoff)

OCEAN PLASTIC (it's not straws, it's mostly commercial fishing line/trawling equipment and microplastics)

A lot of these are interconnected. And of course not a complete list.

At the state and local level:

You probably have the most power to make change at the local level!

Support or volunteer at your local nature centers, local/state land conservancy non-profits (find out who owns&manages the preserves you like to hike at!), state fish & game dept/non-game program, local Audubon chapters (they do a LOT). Participate in a Christmas Bird Count!

Join local garden clubs, which install and maintain town plantings - encourage them to use NATIVE plants. Join a community garden!

Get your college campus or city/town certified in the Bee Campus USA/Bee City USA programs from the Xerces Society

Check out your state's official plant nursery, forest society, natural heritage program, anything that you could become a member of, get plants from, or volunteer at.

Volunteer to be part of your town's conservation commission, which makes decisions about land management and funding

Attend classes or volunteer with your land grant university's cooperative extension (including master gardener programs)

Literally any volunteer effort aimed at improving the local environment, whether that's picking up litter, pulling invasive plants, installing a local garden, planting trees in a city park, ANYTHING. make a positive change in your own sphere. learn the local issues affecting your nearby ecosystems. I guarantee some lake or river nearby is polluted

MAKE HABITAT IN YOUR COMMUNITY. Biggest thing you can do. Use plants native to your area in your yard or garden. Ditch your lawn. Don't use pesticides (including mosquito spraying, tick spraying, Roundup, etc). Don't use fertilizers that will run off into drinking water. Leave the leaves in your yard. Get your school/college to plant native gardens. Plant native trees (most trees planted in yards are not native). Remove invasive plants in your yard.

On this last point, HERE ARE EASY ONLINE RESOURCES TO FIND NATIVE PLANTS and LEARN ABOUT NATIVE GARDENING:

Xerces Society Pollinator Conservation Resource Center

Pollinator Pathway

Audubon Native Plant Finder

Homegrown National Park (and Doug Tallamy's other books)

National Wildlife Federation Native Plant Finder (clunky but somewhat helpful)

Heather Holm (for prairie/midwest/northeast)

MonarchGard w/ Benjamin Vogt (for prairie/midwest)

Native Plant Trust (northeast & mid-atlantic)

Grow Native Massachusetts (northeast)

Habitat Gardening in Central New York (northeast)

There are many more - I'm not familiar with resources for western states. Print books are your biggest friend. Happy to provide a list of those.

Lastly, you can help scientists monitor species using citizen science. Contribute to iNaturalist, eBird, Bumblebee Watch, or any number of more geographically or taxonomically targeted programs (for instance, our state has a butterfly census carried out by citizen volunteers).

In short? Get curious, get educated, get involved. Notice your local nature, find out how it's threatened, and find out who's working to protect it that you can help with. The health of the planet, including our resilience to climate change, is determined by small local efforts to maintain and restore habitat. That is how we survive this. When government funding won't come, when we're beat back at every turn trying to get policy changed, it comes down to each individual person creating a safe refuge for nature.

Thanks for reading this far. Please feel free to add your own credible resources and organizations.
