i don't think i had a problem with watching 'girly' shows, i remember watching The Little Mermaid every week, and when i was a little older i loved Cardcaptor Sakura
during my teens i liked Naruto and Bleach, which could both be pretty dark
in the case of Bleach the entire show had a very grimdark look, which would have completely put me off when i was little, but when i was a teen was part of what attracted me to it (and then i became disappointed as the show became increasingly less about ghost hunting and more about extended fight scenes)
There was this weird kid in my year at school who lived a couple of steers away from me, and we would trade Pokemon cards through the bushes of my front garden where there's a public footpath.

Also, I just realized I get a three-day weekend next week because Labor Day. Nice!
I'm hoping we have a busy weekend at the shop next weekend. usually if gas prices are decent we get a lot of people stopping through for Labor Day. Especially since we're right off the highway.
i think i was happiest between the ages of 3 and 4, before the bullying started, and again during my late teens/sixth form years (about the time when i first went on TVT and was allegedly "one cheerful motherf***er"), and then during my first year at university (after the gap year, which was horrible)
kid!Tre was either happy, socially awkward, anxious, or some combination of the three. He also did not have a mohawk, and was largely incapable of making friends, save for the few in his classes that didn't ostracize him for being "gay" or a "little bitch". (Fourth grade... fourth grade was a hard year.)
preteen!Tre still had a similar disposition, though he benefitted from an environment that was more welcoming to his quirks. It was around early adolescence where he gained his mohawk and joined TV Tropes and Tumblr, and then after that, well, you know.
I lived in the district of one of the rougher elementary schools in my town.
My sister got through her three years there alright, but by the end of my six years there I transferred to a school on the other side of town just so I wouldn't have to endure the same sort of environment during middle school. (I don't regret the decision at all; I've drifted from the guys I primarily hung out with while I was there, but one of my two real best friends was there and, despite some initial turmoil involving Tumblr and irrational blame, we're as thick as thieves now.)
The weird thing is, I don't really even think it was because I expressed any particularly homosexual traits so much as just not being one for "boy stuff", I guess.

Until puberty hit.
Then it was all explosions and shit.
And girly things.
idk though, it's balanced out by how nutty and colourful it all is
And then my brother introduced me to gaming.

i watched Pokemon sometimes, and yu-gi-oh, but that was more on account of the card games
Years later, when I'm replaying TR II on the PC, I tracked that tiger down and shot the fuck out of it.
i watched it before i heard of the games, i remember at first i thought the Pokémon were all individuals rather than species
i also got the card game, but got frustrated because barely anyone else wanted to play it, they only collected the cards
my first N64 game was Banjo-Kazooie, i played it so much that my parents got concerned.
It was like a drugs trade.
How can one wisdom tooth, which isn't even fucking out yet, cause so much pain?
Fuck
And I can't get a dentist appointment tomorrow because everything is shut tomorrow.
Tooth pain is a horrible thing. You have my sympathies.
kid!Imi wanted to watch more girly stuff like MLP but was afraid of societal norms
teen!Tools was a troubled teenager
youngadult!Tools has severe anxiety, a filthy mind and an even filthier mouth
Assassin poems, Poems that shoot
guns. Poems that wrestle cops into alleys
and take their weapons leaving them dead

teen!Tools went through hell and back
present!Tools is on the mend, and could murder some chocolate frosted icing right now
my sister did a weight loss progress collage of me earlier today
There's one near my Halls of Residence, but that would mean having to cut through a dodgy area. I don't like being myself after dark.
cuz like i was a huge gay ass fag but the only person who called me that as a kid was this really swole girl at summer camp who called everyone a fag?
North Carolina? Jersey? Boston?
man y'all found the worst places to grow up and that is coming from the alcoholic mom dude
Denver has varied in its kindness to me
