For my writers here on kwenk, what inspires you to keep writing? I don't really have plans to publish anything I write (or really show it to anyone to be honest) which makes me struggle with motivation- I want to write because I like the stories I make, and I love bringing them to life, but finding the motivation is challenging T_T

Are you afraid of reaching out to people?

Obviously you’ll lose touch with people naturally, but I feel like people are also bad at reaching out, even if they care.

I’m very frustrated that people I thought I was close with suddenly disappear because of distance.

One friend even expressed that they do care, but they just don’t reach out. Which annoyed me to no end.

Please reach out to people you care about :(

Just a note to those with custom graphics on Kwenk: antiviruses may falsely flag sites like Melonland as malicious, so be warned that your graphics might not appear for some people be default. I believe this is just a false alarm on the antivirus' end (but no promises, lol). It can be turned off. Just want to spread the word!

I recommend downloading the images you are using and posting them to somewhere like Tumblr or Imgur. Link from those sites instead. Hotlinking straight from the indie sites uses up their bandwidth, anyway.

Hello everyone!

How do the people of kwenk feel about kemonomimi fashion? (adding animal ears/tails as an accessory as part of one's fashion style)

I personally love the idea of it, and wish wearing animal tails as an accessory was more socially acceptable :( I don't have the confidence to partake unfortunately, but I really wish I did!! I'm hoping to basically soft launch it into my life so I can feel more comfortable being myself :> I just wanted to see what other people think about it, I'm curious!!

I feel like I’ve come full circle bc I used to be obsessed with potty humor when I was young and now I’ve been getting back into it now. I j feel like it’s smth that anyone can laugh at without being inappropriate.

I saw this reel that was like “where did you get your clothes? TJ poop?” And it took me out 😭

I'm so fricking mad right now. I work as a part of cleaning staff in giant storage building, there's Dry section, Fresh (we call it OiW [owoce I warzywa/ fruits and vegetables]) and freezer. The geniuses that or on management team of freezer told us to put fucking slat on a floor in the fucking freezer (there is constantly snowing because dripler broke) and expected that nothing bad would happen. Guess what. Something bad happened. Carts that people who work here were sliding all over the place because snow that was falling melted on a floor... in a place where is -30°Celsius. Thank God noone died

Hello sweethearts! Id like to ask something that I don't think I should be asking here but whatever. I often feel disconnected with my body, as if im just watching my life trough VR, the sounds around me feel distand and can't focus on what someone is saying or where I am. I also have a fear of losing control of myself. It mostly happens when I'm surrounded by a lot of people and noise. Or when I'm quiet for too long. I didn't know it was something real and I thought I was just making it up until I saw a yt short abt it and then I started searching and I came to a name derealization and depersonification. Took an online test and watched some vids abt it and always could relate to the stuff they were saying. BUT I'm scared to tell my mom. She will ask where I got the term from and when I say the internet it's not gonna end well. Also I dont want to go to my old therapist. (I kinda left her on a cliffhanger on our last session lol) But I also dont want to go to a new one cuz I'd have to explain everything again.. Idk what to do soo if someone has any advice I'd mean the world to me ᐢᴗ͈ ᴗ͈ᐢꕀ♡

I wanna know why i hate when homophobic ppl ignorantly engage with queer content, like as in they don’t know its queer, they like it, and if they find out it is- they will hate on it like its the worst sin god has written abt. Idk why they annoy me sm when i probably get into content that has roots i don’t agree with 2—

i mean we’re all more ignorant than we know or like to admit no matter how much we try not to be, idk?

Also dunno if saying that who’s specifically on my mind being arab ppl and Mashrou Leila is useful context.

Me being annoyed by that sounds as stupid as being annoyed that ppl don’t know that some famous old painter with world-wide known paintings was probs gay or smth.

Does sum1 understand any proper sentence i js said cuz i dont think i do much…

my friends got mad at me for saying "i like age gaps if im younger one and the age gap was to be max 2 years " i didn't get to finish they cut me off at the younger one part like im sorry?? these guys always be dating people in a lower grade than them like that's better.. if you think my preference is wrong that is too idc. i used to judge but im mostly confused, do we not see the immaturity gap ts can be MASSIVE even if someone is the same age as you ( and im just talking about high school / secondary school btw bc u get better when ur an adult i assume) and now their saying i want to get gr**med like NO?? I was just saying that bc my experience with dating ppl younger than me was exhausting/ annoying and I'd rather not deal with that anymore yeah i probably said that wrong but like i don't have that type of vocab downloaded T-T

How do you guys know when someone has a crush on you? I've always been terrible at reading where I stand with others, especially romantically. I also have zero dating experience, so I'm curious.

So many forms of flirting can also be platonic. I remember writing down all the signs of platonic and romantic interest and they were the same. Is it really just based on vibes? I hope not lmfao.
