I think with sabrina there's a confusion between intentional and substantial. yes, she is doing all this aesthetic configuring, and it's fun, and it's intentional, and it may even be intended to be subversive. but at least in my estimation it is not, so far, adding up to any substantial commentary or meaning. sort of just a mirror rn.
#i will repeat my taylor addage which is pop nusic is a very difficult genre form to Say Anything in#bc you have to appeal to a very large common denominator ro have any kind of success

so i grew up pretty poor. like we'd be looking in the couch cushions for change in order to buy groceries poor. and one day my dad explained something to me, and looking back, it's probably the first thing that radicalized me
i think i was about 8 and he was driving us somewhere, and he explained the concept of "rich people spend less money, because they can afford to buy something nicer that lasts longer. poor people like us have to buy worse things that don't last as long and we need to buy it again. over time, the poor person spends more money, and that's why the poor stay poor." yes, he did use boots for the metaphor.
over the years I've seen that referenced. ive seen comics of it and people explaining the metaphor. maybe the first time i saw it i was a little surprised, but I don't think i ever assumed my dad had made it up. i think something he prefaced the analogy with implied he'd heard it somewhere else.
today was the day i learned it was from discworld. god i need to read those fuckin books
#vime's boot theory#the boot theory#discworld#i mean it's known that it's from it. i couldve looked it up. i just never bothered#i guess i always assumed it was just some addage#mine

Equal parts fascinated and exhausted to see the discourse surrounding transspecies. Mostly, I simply feel inclined to tiredly huff.
If you believe you can define the term transspecies in a way that adequately covers every possible configuration or understanding of the idea: You cannot. Trying to do so will inevitably leave some by the wayside. Refusing to acknowledge and proceeding regardless will cause more harm than good to people you both know and don't know.
This term as utilized by me and the experiences it represents for me are not for others to understand, and I will certainly not deign to fit into any pathetic universal definition or ontology that is presented to me. It's a personal, potentially private understanding first and foremost, and perhaps for many even solely: some understand this fact. Some do not.
#alterhuman#transspecies#This term was not coined in the alterhuman community and predates the word alterhuman.#It has a life outside of the alterhuman community.#Attempting to force a limiting framework on the term in regards to how it should apply to others is both stupid and insulting#and speaks to so much about what I dislike most about your communities.#You don't need to explain and cage and dissect every-fucking-thing you come across at the expense of others.#Sometimes things do not involve your frameworks. Sometimes things exist outside of your communities. That is normal and okay.#If you apply it to unraveling your own tapestry it's one thing: to force others into a specific pattern that they are not is another.#Keep your hands off my snout; to reference the old addage.#dragon.exe

i am better off than I was. I am. I'm not so lost in my head that i've forgotten who is real... Getting fucking close though. Gotta rein that shit the fuck in...
I need to find a way to socialize with actual humans outside of work that doesn't objectively terrify me before I start collecting gifts for fictional characters again...
#ignore me#fucking hell i need a life#and local friends...#it hasn't even been a month since my last human contact and i'm already losing it#... it occurs to me now that i've typed that sentence that even a month is too long for most people#what was that addage about hugs?#tangentially related: i would like to crawl into someone's ribcage please

SO
I am a nerd for The Last Ship.
I know thereās practically nobody on Tumblr who likes it, because most people say itās U.S. military propaganda. Theyāre absolutely right, it is. But itās also a great show and therefore I donāt care.
Iām also an RP nut. And my brain created an AU idea that Iād love to discuss. So, anyone who might actually like The Last Ship/want to RP it, feel free to PM!

Hans from Frozen voice: If only there were a fanfic writing god who loved you
@monotonecomplainyguy
I call upon the fan fic writing gods to bless you with the perseverance to finish one of your unfinished drafts.Ā
May your fingers dance along the letters upon your device with ease, may the devil of distraction stay far from you, and may your work not need much editing.
I pass this blessing upon every fan fic writer out there.
