thawing.. 🎃 #yugioh #pharaohatem #cosplay
A close-up portrait of a Black person dressed in an elaborate costume inspired by Pharaoh Atem from "Yu-Gi-Oh!" They have a large, dense afro with red tips and golden highlights, styled in a dramatic, spiked shape. They wear a pointed golden headpiece; a large golden triangular pendant engraved with an Eye of Horus symbol; bold gold jewellery, including a layered beaded necklace, metallic cuffs, rings of an ankh and The Eye of Ra. 

The outfit includes a white tunic with a wide, metallic gold belt and a vibrant purple cape draped over their shoulders. They hold two Yu-Gi-Oh! cards—one of which appears to be powerful cards—"The Winged Dragon of Ra" and Dark Paladin, both original Japanese cards. They’re posed confidently with a focused expression. In the bottom right corner, a small cut-out of the character they're cosplaying appears for comparison, showcasing their dedication to detail. The background is a plain, light colour, emphasising the vibrant costume and intricate accessories.

thawing.. 🎃 #olrox #castlevania #cosplay
A Black person wearing a purple velvet medieval, victorian steampunk tailcoat. The tailcoat has swirly, gold embellishments along each sides of the breast and cuffing. The cuffing pattern matches the undervest’s. Underneath, the person is wearing a white ruffled shirt with sleeves that peek from the tailcoat cuffs. The person is wearing dark knickers.

The person eyes are green and their hair is long, dark, curly, and fine and falls below the breast line. Their ears appear pointed like a vampire’s. They have a cleft chin, 4C facial hair, and light eyeshadow. The person’s glance is of a mix of straightforward calmness, subtle objection, lust, and hypnotism. 

The background is a still night scene — an empty street lit by street lights, some grass, trees, signage, wooden utility poles, and a cloudy, moonlit sky.  

The caption reads “thawing” with a pumpkin emoji.

There was lots of time I wanted to give up but a spirit would always pull me back in. I had a damn near death experience a few years back and lost a few important people in my life and still remain in tact to following my dreams. I just can’t believe this who I am at 32 years old. 🥹

i’ve been deep diving into the study of gentleness recently. and it’s been really re-enlightening. it’s something i feel i’ve lost—be it by the hands of society or the ones in my life who were supposed to be safe spaces for it. but i feel really hopeful i’ll get that sense of self back. i have to.

I’m so glad y’all were able to see my vision in the flesh — but more importantly — that so many now understand how powerful and impactful our community can be. 💛 When we come together, we can accomplish some spectacular things. If we are really all we got, then let’s continue to act like it. 🙂‍↕️

here and there 🪻
A semi-medium, semi-aerial photo of a Black person wearing a lavender or lilac form-fitting shirt and wide-leg cargo jeans with multiple pockets. They are wearing a pair of white New Balance sneakers, a rusty silver link chain with a butterfly pendant, a silver butterfly earring cuff on their right ear helix, and a silver nose ring on their left nostril. The person appears to be fairly muscular with a sizable chest, traps, and biceps. They have a low haircut with waves, a beard, and a moustache. The person is standing in a neutral stance, looking up at the photographer, whilst heading up an escalator. There is a bandage on their left cheek and an iphone in their right hand. Their glance is unassuming and one of subtle happiness. The scene is neutral in color. There is a generic polka-dot-like tile on the right and left walls of the metro station the person is presumably leaving; the escalator is metallic; the ceiling is a neutral but aged white; and there is lighting coming from behind the lens, which suggests the person is exiting to outside. The photo caption reads: “here and there 🪻”

i’m mesomorphic. and never worked out to lose or gain weight bc i could never rely on the distribution of me weight in what i was able to track daily or weekly. 200lbs on me today looks far different on me than 200lbs on me last week 😅 no complaints about any of this, just a curious part of my life

mallewi. 🦋 @mallewi.blacksky.app · 12/06/2025
aging effects were ruled out bc it’s been this way most my life. my hormone levels are fine. i don’t drink sodas or alcohols or eat in disorder, so that wasn’t it. i eat salty things but nothing unusual (esp. for the american diet 😭) idk. i love my body but my self-image has struggled bc of this.

mallewi. 🦋 @mallewi.blacksky.app · 12/06/2025
tmi but i have waist pin adjusters and wear snap belts exclusively for this reason. i can’t afford to have three wardrobes of essentially medium, large, and extra large clothes. 😅

mallewi. 🦋 @mallewi.blacksky.app · 12/06/2025
they said it may have to do with changes to my digestive system and my body naturally retaining lots of water or something. idk but it’s been this way my whole life, especially once i started eating poultry and fish again surely i can’t be alone in this. one day i wear a size 38/40, next day, 32/34

mallewi. 🦋 @mallewi.blacksky.app · 12/06/2025
my body has interesting ways of adapting. my weight distribution fluctuates more dramatically day-to-day than most. one day i’m all swole(ish), the next day, smol(ish). it’s not dysmorphia either. my pcp years ago made note. also, i’ve been gathering empirical evidence of this for like 4 years now 😅

i don't know who needs to hear this but: someone that repeatedly does you wrong in order to get a reaction, response, or non-response out of you so they can ultimately justify doing the worst things they've always wanted to do as a follow-up to your reaction, does so deliberately. it is abuse.

a deathiversary and several traumaversaries all in the same week or so is a lot rn. but staying still and focusing on gratitude to anchor myself. baby needs more, new, happy memories.

INT. MY HOME — EVENING MALLEWI enters MALLEWI'S PERSON: welcome home, baby. i missed you so much today! [eating dinner together; watching a show together; powered by snuggles; gossiping/complaining bout the day; threaded by words of affirmation, small, sporadic kisses in seemingly random places]

this is not to say the people in my life don't care ABOUT me. i'm moreso saying that—as the strong friend—they typically aren't able to care for me when i'm going through things. whether it's bc they're going things themselves or they don't know how to (beyond how i have to lead them to, with love).

functional depression been getting the best of me lately and my best friend has been unknowingly been coming to my rescue. i have deep appreciation for ones that embrace me when i’m not at my best bc i’m used to isolating myself, as people don’t have the capacity or capability to care for my stuff.
