On my hands and knees begging adults to allow children to engage in risk play.
And by risk play I don't mean handing them a gun and playing Russian Roulette.
I mean like climbing trees, getting so sick spinning on the swing they throw up, balancing on the curb, sitting in the mud, walking on slippery surfaces, building half ass ramps to ride their bike over, standing on rocks, or anything that involves a smidgen of confidence and out of the box thinking that could result in injury.
Obviously like watch your kids and such, but when we talk about the fun of being an 80s or 90s kid, it's not just talking about CDs and Walkmans or not having iPads. It's about how kids today were robbed of critical learning and experience skills we were allowed to have.
Playgrounds disappearing, helicopter parents, and sue culture really destroyed a child's development in the United States, and I think it's about time we as adults recognize that, because the kids sure have.
the thing is like. cowboy bebop & trigun are functionally similar pieces of media (melancholy 90s space western adult swim animanga) but trigun is like. you are lonely and permanently running from a past that is part of you that you can't escape and which continually haunts u and affects u in the present. (hopeful) (breaking the cycle) and cowboy bebop is like. you are lonely and permanently running from a past that is part of you that you can't escape and which continually haunts u and affects u in the present. (derogatory)(the past is alive and it is going to fucking GET you)
would you put a discarded fruit sticker on my forehead in whimsical jest yes or no
"save me, substance abuse!" i cry. before you can moralize to me about the dangers of addiction, a noble and powerful steed gallops into the room - my horse whom i have named "substance abuse". you learn an important lesson about making assumptions. i snort a line off its back
Your existence is not insignificant, my love. Just because you may not have found your passion yet, it does not mean you have no purpose. Just because all you can manage to do at the moment is getting through a day without breaking down, it does not mean you are wasting your time. Just because you are not doing big things to change the world, it does not mean you are a bad person. You do not need to achieve big things to have meaning in this world, my love. You may feel as if you do not make a difference but trust me, you do. There are so many little things about you that make this world a better place. Your smile can make someone reconsider their choice to give up, your words can make someone finally feel happy again, your gestures can make someone believe in the good again. Even if you feel like you are just a tiny little light on this planet, you are actually the sun to so many people. Your existence matters. You are significant.
The way it's eyes are shaped at the bottom looks like it's smiling :'-]
