TW FOR MENTIONS OF ABUSE. CRIES

YK WHAT I NEED A TUTORIAL FOR?? How to trust your mother again after she's gotten therapy and changed for the better because she used to be so angry and scary. She had terrible anger issues and she always argued with my dad. She wasn't much of a physical abuser (Often. It still happened.) But she mentally abused me and my older brother for years and I still haven't recovered fully from it. She and my dad split up a few years ago, and I've lived with my dad. But recently they've been hanging out more, and they're actually acting like friends. They do karaoke and shit together and they watch this TV show on the nights she drops my brothers off. I feel bad for being cautious around her, because I know she had it rough and she's getting better. She's already improved so much. And I love her, really, but trusting her again is scary.

She's so much nicer to me now.

good god i WANT that cowboy

Are you still doing the Ford RP blog

YEAH!! It's pretty slow rn but I'm still doing it!!

( @lilfordsy if you need it )

everyones been asking me this. everytime i tell someone new im into dialtown, they always question me about the same thing! without fail! and so here it is:

WHAT I THINK EACH CHARACTER WOULD ORDER AT THE CHEESECAKE FACTORY

now why are they at the cheesecake factory? BECAUSE: in the dialtown universe, as we know, texas roadhouses were ERADICATED off the face of the earth due to health violations, and where else is norm gonna go for his birthday?

(most) everyone gets a DESSERT, DRINK, and MEAL in their order

HE ORDERS: the pumpkin pecan cheesecake (he attempted to order the carrot cake, at the cheesecake factory, at got side eyed), whisky & ginger, and steak diane. claims his mama makes steak better BUT whatev he enjoys his meal in his own disgruntled way

MINGUS, on the other hand, is VIGILANT throughout. she forgot it was norms birthday (& of course would never admit this), and was the one to offer to take him out and pay for everyone. just as powerplay. she sits across from norm, on the edge of her seat just WAITING to call over the waiter for the check. she orders the miso salmon, a red sangria, and 30th anniversary chocolate cake

i hate this thing. it cant read the 9 pages of menu, obviously, so the narrator is thumbing through for it and as SOON as he mentions this "impossible burger", gingi immediately gets an idea in its head that itll break the system & give it money BACK. refuses to eat it in fear of "damaging the goods" and also gets a ... bowl of vanilla ice cream

karen orders: louisiana chicken pasta, a strawberry infused margarita, and fresh strawberry. it just makes sense to have your drink & dessert match! she doesnt eat all of her meal & spends most of it tossing little pasta bits at gingi to watch it snap at it. otherwise Normal Sensible Dinner

oliver on the contrary, orders based off name alone. Chicken Parmesan "Pizza Style", the Well-Mannered Dirty Martini, and Adam's Peanut Butter Cup Fudge Ripple. he has to squash his disappointment when the waiter comes around and hands him his dessert without calling it by its full title

randy ATTEMPTS to get a kids meal, feeling weird about the bill all being on mingus' tab & he isnt around her much, so how would he repay her? just COMPLETELY overthinking it. so he doesnt have a backup for when he doesnt pass as 12 & is told he cant order that. so he PANICS and lands on something random... the loaded mashed potato omelette. okay. same with the coconut cream. he orders NO drink - instead, he gets water, and the waiter passes over him & he gets NO refills. (he goes to the bathroom sink when thirsty)

i like to think jerry gets invited to norms birthday dinner! he orders the cuban sandwich (pickles & all!), espresso martini, and pineapple upside-down cheesecake. it just fits

i WILL not accept constructive criticism, btw

oh my god!!!!! i love being in highschool!!!!! i love trying to sleep on the bus because school is so draining for me and then having pictures taken of me while im asleep because they guy behind me is an asshole!!!!!! i love highschool!!!!! /sarc
