even if you only reblog, that’s enough
1st of February, 2021
i was debating on whether or not i should post this on tumblr but seeing as there haven’t been posts about this yet, here it is. i’m exposing my real location and nationality but it doesn’t matter.
if you have been active on twitter, you may already know #savemyanmar is trending. long story short, there has been a military coup. several nations have released statements but i want to share insight on what’s happening in the country.
memes about a coup have been circulating around for a couple days and when i slept at 2 am last night, we were still under the rule of the National League for Democracy (NLD). while they are not technically democratic, they are the closest we’ve got. when my mother woke up at 6 this morning, she was notified that the country was now under the rule of the military.
banks services are no longer available. wifi was cut at around 7-8. some people got wifi again earlier but many got it barely thirty minutes ago. this is bad for businesses especially ones that require international communications. additionally, international students like myself are experiencing anxiety; how do we pay for and attend classes if we’re not sure wifi is a given?
myanmar has a long, complicated history with military governments. the last time the military went into rule was in 1962 and only stopped in 2011, following the 2010 elections. there was a huge protest in 1988 lead by students that resulted in lots of death. during the military junta, resources like rice, water, oil, were scarce. the gist is military rule is bad for us.
all of my followers are not myanmar citizens, i’m sure but as part of the international community, please help us. here is a petition that you can sign (although i’m not sure if that can do much). there may be protests in front of myanmar embassies so look out for those. most of all, please help spread awareness.
the people here are coping with dark humor, primarily in the form of memes but we don’t know how long this rule will last, even though the official statement said only a year. here’s something that pretty much sums up our coping mechanism:
again, even a reblog helps
update :: all telecommunication means will be cut off at 12 am MMT
I’m not asexual but, ASEXUALS ARE VALID AS FUCK
Holy. Shit.
An absolute sweetheart!!
This Eclipse was a 10ft tall model that was supposed to help Sun! In his world, Fazbear decommissioned him after pouring money into fixing him because of his size. They never told Sun, however... So you can imagine the sheer stress and panic of not being able to find the love of your life, but instead a moon model the same size as you. A replacement.
Eclipse has heating functions, and is in a soft, squishy, plush casing. He has paw pads on his feet and hands that squeak. His tail wags when excited, and jingles when flustered.
Eclipse is actually still in the Pizzaplex, but is in the trash area of the place. He's cold and confused... He can't see... He can't hear... He can't move.
He actually tried to call for help, for his Sunflower... Tried warming himself up, but nothing worked. His bells were shattered, his rays and body were ripped and starting to rot, his insides starting to rust...
Losing power...
....Sunflower....
..I will definitely be using the ‘Happy list’ method than you very much
hello my lovelies! this was asked by @secretly-tword-obsessed because i mentioned in one of my asks that my friends know i like being tworded, so here are a few tips and methods i use to tell people that i like THE THING so i can get more in my life!
make a “happy list” and stick twords on it - this is my absolute tried-and-tested FAILSAFE when it comes to asking for twords. basically get you and your friends to make “happy lists” (or just make one yourself to show your friends) which basically consist of everything that makes you happy. make sure that twords are on that list. i usually put it somewhere between 2nd and 5th on the last so it’s not the FIRST thing people read, but it’s near enough to the top for people to realise it’s an important thing and to not skip over it. this is how i’ve told every single one of my friends indirectly in order to get more twords, and for me it’s worked everytime
be CASUAL - like if twords are ever brought up in conversation just flippantly say something like “oh yeah tbh i’ve never really hated them” or “honestly i like the way they make me laugh, i find it fun” and don’t dwell on it too much, bring it to attention so it’s a known fact but be casual enough so that people just note and absorb. the more you casually bring it up, the more people will remember it but again keep it CASUAL.
make it a truth or dare/who’s most likely to question - see i know for a fact that if my friend group got asked “who’s the most ticklish in the group?” they’d all immediately turn to me. so if a game of truth or dare/who’s most likely to comes up, “google” some questions for it and just make up one about twords to try and steer the conversation that way.
if you’re being tickled, make it clear that you’re having fun - this is for if your friends tword you on the regulat but they don’t know you like it. i’ve found that people not in the tword community will stop pretty quickly if you’re saying things like “stop!” or “no!” and if you’re visibly pulling away. i knowww that’s the natural reaction even if you do like it, but i’ve managed to train my body into not doing that. when i’m tworded i just laugh without saying anything pleading and lean towards it, and usually by this body language people won’t stop as quickly if it doesn’t physically look like you’re in distress. also one time when my friend stopped twording me i actually had the courage to say “nooo don’t stop!” (which has happened once and once only), so immediately i got more as a result so if you can find the courage to do that too then go for it!
make it a game at first - so basically this is one that’s specific to me but might inspire some ideas. me and this one friend started a “tickle war” which initially was because we both knew each other was ticklish af (i was easily worse but she wasn’t far off) and we’re both incredibly competitive. we had a points system and everything lmao it was very elaborate. some time after we declared the war, i made it known to this friend that i actually enjoyed being tworded in itself. so basically this “war” we were having just turned into an excuse for her to wreck me on a regular basis, i’m fairly sure she was on 500ish points and i had barely hit 100 when we stopped doing it. but if you can initially make a tword scenario into a silly little game or competition and THEN just turn it into an excuse to get wrecked, that works surprisingly well!
communicate with your friends - for telling people outisde of the tickle community that you like being tworded, it takes a lot of courage and i applaud anyone who has done that. i find that it i probably had it easier than most, as i’m incredibly close with my friends and we’re all very physically affectionate anyway so as soon as my friends knew this about me, they were more than happy to oblige! so tell people that you trust, that you’re fairly close with and make sure to communicate any boundaries you may have or anything like that. this will vary from person to person, but communication is absolutely KEY.
i hope some of these were helpful!! i wish all of you the best of luck in telling people in your life about this wonderful part of your personalities, and i wish all of the twords for you in the future!! ily all <33
I'm trying to prove something.
Okay so what if, like some other villain team attacks 1a, or kidnaps someone most likely Bakugou, Izuku, or Todoroki and the league just pops in like “Wtf do you think you’re doing? These are our targets- go find someone else-“ and 1a is just confused cause now the two villain organizations are fighting. Shigaraki is just like- "Bakugou why did you let them kidnap you?! i thought we had something special!" And just “Only I can kidnap you- it’s my thing”
Bakugou: gets kidnapped against his will
Shigaraki: throws tantrum no only i can do that!

Holy shit I saw this last Friday….I think
No fucking way I’m doing that-
Alright y'all, here's the deal. One of us needs to take one for the team. Enough playing around! One of us needs to
go to Comic Con
go to Tom Holland's panel and
ask Tom if he's ticklish.
Who's gonna have the balls?
I don't. So. It ain't gonna be me.
PuPpEt bOy
