Neurotypicals be like: “don’t put yourself into a box!!”
Then demand that you fit into theirs.
I'm a hobbit from the Shire, with the unusual abilty to locate every strawberry in a 144-mile radius and gobble it up. Oh, and side note...can I please also be Diamond of Long Cleeve (Pippin's wife!), please?💖✨🍓
zeekayart, with the power of phonetic pronunciation of letters, and general art snobbery!
My big sis was really into it! So as long as I can remember there were always AG books in the house. I became extremely obsessed when I was 6, and then my mom got me Felicity for Christmas that year. My sister was mostly over it by the time she was 15. But for me, at age almost 20, the obsession has never died and I'm looking for the next doll on my list: Maryellen.
American Girl fans of Tumblr, what was your very first exposure to the brand?
Mine was finding a Meet Kaya book in my primary school's library.
This is one of my favorite pieces I’ve done because it is so nostalgic for me! I used to make AG stop motions and draw AG dolls all the time as a kid, they were such a big part of my childhood and I made some of my favorite memories with them! ♥️
For me, it's the words "brat" and "bratty". I don't care if you're a Military Brat, even hearing the word in a benign context (i.e., not an old crank justifying the hatred of children) makes me feel like all the blood is rushing to my head, and my eyes instantly fill with tears. I do try to control myself in such situations. I know Ye Olde Military Brats wear your label with pride. You can have your Brat Tamer kink, but never talk to me about it. Even if I'd ordinarily agree that a kid is rude or badly behaved, I'd choose any other word that'd work. And the whole Brat Summer thing is almost funny, but it's had me cringing hard. For some reason mentioning Bratz dolls is fine. (I was never into them, but I understand the context is just about toys.) Even seeing "brat" and "bratty" in print feels either like I suddenly can't read, or like a slight jumpscare. I also dislike "twerp", "twaddle", and "whore".
I have misophonia and logomisia...
I should try that! 🐑✨
my favorite coworker told me the scenario she thinks of to fall asleep is she stumbles upon a baby sheep and has to raise it and it grows up and she has to shear it and she says she envisions shearing it so carefully that she always falls asleep at that part
Even when you're almost 20💖✨
its okay to hurt when you loose a loved stuffed animal. its okay to hurt when your plushie gets a stain, or a tear. theres nothing wrong with you, your emotions are valid. they never stopped loving you. you are even more wonderful for caring so much about something so small. please be gentle with yourself.
Thanks for tagging me!
I expected to get the golden retriever, but the sheep is super cute!
