Somehow this isn’t discussed enough but I never let this go unnoticed.
Kairi starts off with this complete arbitrary trail of thought upon gazing the mural, so when Sora catches the same thought as hers, she gives him this mesmerized look.
Like she can’t believe he recalls her grandmother’s stories– or that he listens when she rambles about it, or that he could be so quick to catch on her thoughts. Like completing each other’s sentences.
Now, we know Sora is the biggest empathizer there is, so really this shouldn’t be all that suprising to grasp, but to Kairi, it is. Not because she thinks it to be something unexpected coming from him, but that her values are valued.
She’s probably lived off thinking that her grandmother’s stories were just that: stories– tales that don’t hold much significance even though she cherishes them as if they were her lasting memories of her grandma and her life back home.
Maybe her stories were heard, but not listened to, so she thought.
Komi from “Komi-san has a communication disorder” has Asperger’s Syndrome and that is a fact because if she didn’t the last few pages of chapter one wouldn’t have made me cry like a complete baby.
Hi I’m an 18 year old Romani enby lesbian, I live with my brother and parents and we’re in real financial trouble. Three out of four of us have chronic mental illness and we all work our asses off except my brother who is legally too young to work. Unfortunately we have pretty shitty jobs and all our pays go to the bare necessities, but we’re having trouble keeping up!!! Between medical bills, food, school fees, and mortgage we’re barely holding together. At the moment my brother can’t even get a school uniform that fits him and if we get too behind on our mortgage the bank will take our house. I’m really genuinely scared and the stress is really triggering my anxiety and paranoia, we’re all fighting and seriously depressed. If you can’t donate then please reblog, please I’m begging you help however you can!! I don’t mind giving out more info, just pm me.
So my therapist said something awhile back and it’s really stuck with me.
I was talking about the stupid things I had done in high school. How the stories I wrote were stupid and how all I ever wanted to draw was anime shit (which was stupid) and how immature I could be, etc etc etc.
and she was like “Why are you so determined to beat up on Little Maggie?”
It took me off guard, I was like “what do you mean?”
“Why do you keep saying Little Maggie is stupid? You say she was stupid and immature but wasn’t she just a teenager? Do you not like who you were as a teenager?”
I shrugged and was like “I think teenage me was very creative and was probably just having fun and being a teenager…”
“So why beat up on her and call her stupid and embarrassing?”
“I dunno, because I guess now I’ve learned a lot.”
“But she was young. She didn’t know. I’m just telling you this because if you keep beating up on Little Maggie, you have to remember that she grows up to be you. When you put bruises and scars on Little Maggie, you’re leaving all the healing for Big Maggie. Your insecurity about who you were as a child is going to come through into your adulthood. Be nice to Little Maggie.”
And I’d never really thought of that before? It seems status quo to just… hate who you used to be for not knowing enough, but that’s totally illogical. Of course a younger version of you doesn’t know what you know and can’t act with the wisdom that you act.
And even if Little Maggie was writing silly stories about her friends while ripping off anime and drawing her own “manga” and being immature and goofy, she was having fun, she was being creative, she was enjoying the things she liked and she wasn’t hurting anyone.
She’s part of my past and hating her is hating the foundation of who I eventually became.
Just food for thought.
I almost recently have reblogged this before but please friggin read it
Please, REBLOG, if you think it’s not a sexual preference. Pedophilia will be never be a part of LGBT+ community. It is a sexual disorder. Uncontested
sexual behavior cannot be a preference, despite whatever “fetish” one
has. If someone gets turned on at the idea of someone who is helpless or
doesn’t want them, they need mental help. Period.
“Scholars” aren’t saying this. A medic student with flimsy references who was allowed to speak at an independent TEDx event in Germany is.
We don’t support pedophilia.
Also very very important to note – the “pro-pedo” “Minor-attracted people” “add pedo to LGBT” BS you may have been seeing around the internet over the past few months is, by and large, not being made and pushed by any actual pedophiles. It is a false flag mission by alt-right 4chan trolls who create fake accounts and pose as pedophiles looking for inclusion in the LGBT community, in an attempt by said trolls to delegitimize the LGBT community and give off the impression that it is associated with pedophilia. Please point this out whenever you can to anyone who actually thinks their is a large-scale push to include or accept any kind of pedophilia in the LGBT community
