I was actually kinda thinking about this yesterday, because I also feel really ugly even though most people tell me I look fine. Just saying 'oh you look fine!' doesn't really mean much, because people will say that either way in my experience (and no hate to them, they're just being polite). That's not to say you are ugly, beauty is subjective and different for everyone. I personally think you look great, you like kind and healthy. I think the thing that has helped me most was trying to shift my focus on what I can't do to what I can. I can't fix some of the facial features I'm insecure about, but I can grow out my hair so I like it more. I can't change how tall I am, but I can work for a healthier body that I feel more comfortable in. I can't get rid of my eczema, but I can wear clothes that fit me and that I like. Obviously, that's easier said then done, and I suck at it, but it does help. And of course I could go on a rant about how beauty isn't everything, but I'm sure you've heard it somewhere before. Just remember that you're worth as a human has nothing to do with what you look like--that and being a kind, friendly person can often override how you look. Also this might just be me, so take it with a grain of salt, but I don't really look at peoples faces that much? I have a hard time doing eye contact about half of the time (suspected autism yayyy) so peoples faces are mostly just a blend of their strongest features and usual expression in my memory. I don't really look closely enough to notice flaws, certainly not as close as I look at my own face in the mirror. I know you mentioned the acne, so I'll be honest and say that most of the time I don't notice it on people. Maybe it's because I'm a teenager, so I just see it a lot, but I don't really register it as something separate from someones skin. They're just like freckles, y'know? They just sort of blend in to people. We always overestimate how much people are looking at us, and judging how we look. Most of the time, people are focusing on the way your face is moving so they can read your expression and body language, then focusing on what your face actually looks like. Maybe that's just me? At the very least, if someone does focus on your appearance more then your actions, then they're a weirdo who doesn't deserve your time. That's it for my half awake ramblings I hope you have a great day *hugs* Me Cellist, dreading our summer jobs Honestly, the state of the future sucks and I don't know what to say that will help you feel more hope. I guess, I'm trying not to dread this summer by focusing in the stuff I will get to do in my free time. I have a ton of hobbies I want to work on, and having a job to fund them is gonna be great, even if the actual job sucks. The world is really awful right now, but the sun still shines in the morning and that's pretty cool. I like making little things with my hands to hang around my room because they help cheer me up. Also this is gonna sound weird, but I know vague advice is less then helpful, so here's a stupid tip: watching shows meant for kids in your free time is awesome. It gives your brain a nice break from the complicated dark stuff, and it takes you back to a time when you were less stressed. I've been watching a minecraft smp (an unproblematic one don't worry) and it really helps me. Do with that what you will, I don't pretend to know what I'm doing lol *hugs*

In the tolkien fandom, there is very little 'official' merch that I'm interested in besides the books themselves (especially as someone more interested in silm then lotr). Currently, I'm collecting pieces for a Tolkien themed ita bag, and I would not be able to do with all of the amazing small businesses on Etsy that sell fan merch.
Plus, buying from an artists shop just makes me feel a little better then buying stuff from a big company. I know I'm supporting someone instead of making a billionaire richer. (Not that I don't buy from Amazon, sometimes it's unavoidable as someone with a limited budget, but it's good to avoid as much as possible).

Sharlin was happy to let her disappear for now, and used the moment to stand and breath. She leveled her gun at Evan again. It was hard to get a good grip because the blood had run all the way down to her hand, but she managed to fire at him again.
-
I can't win without you believing in my Elan!!!
-
Sharlin toppled to the ground, thrashing at Aerol and pulling on her magic bird strength to through her off. She slashed the scythe around hoping in would catch one of the girl's limbs as she struggled to crawl away.
-
I finished lol I spent like 15 minutes on it
-
super pumped to work on useless English assignment #45, we're really shaking it up around here
-
"Okaaaaaaay. Sounds fun!"
-
"Okay!" She did so.
-
Sharlin whipped around to see the blade lead Aerol's hand. Her scythe didn't quite make it up in time, and the knife scraped through her shoulder, leaving a deep cut but falling to the forest floor. Blood ran down her arm to her gun hand. This time, she did make it. There was a loud clang as the scythe blocked the tomahawk. Pulling on the extra strength Sharuel could lend her, she shoved Evan away, hopefully making him stumble. Clear of Evan, she ducked under the knife as it rushed passed her. Her shoulder was really starting to hurt now, though. After ducking she rushed at Aerol, swinging her scythe at her middle.

"Do you think someday, all of me will be able to change color?" Jules asked with excitement. "I wanna be blue!"
-
asdkfjasldkfj why does my stupid brain have to be anxious over completely random stuff that isn't even bad
-
Jules held her arms out, excited. "See any more?"
-
"Dang it, I'm rusty," Sharlin muttered. She raised the gun as he rushed toward her, firing again. Her other hand gripped the handle of her scythe, ready to wip it out.
