#just venting a bit

When people start coming after me about romanticizing problematic characters I’m just going to ask them if they’ve ever fantasized about having a pet dragon at some point in their life. Because a fictional character has just as much capacity to cause real world harm as a pet dragon does. Yet no one ever comes at dragon lovers for promoting the illegal dangerous animal trade. You never hear “Promoting keeping dragons as pets in fiction just encourages people to buy dangerous animals like tigers to keep in their houses.”

oh nice, can't wait to see the exact same posts about tzr discourse again and again all over my dash for the next three days

[sweepingboy]

me: nah I don't think I'm that traumatized after witnessing peaceful protests being brutally suppressed in my country

also me, crying after my turkish colleague described the situation in her country: well-

Baby's first "Meet the artist" whxnanzn

More fun facts about me:

- I have 15 cats and 2 big dogs

- My therapist has watched several episodes of the shows I like to talk about them in session ejxkans love my therapist

- My eyes are green and really small

- I'm the palest person a lot of people know endmwnsn

- I use tape binder everytime I go out

- I'm not nearly as extroverted as I seem online, I'm actually really quiet with most people (unless we have a shared interest, then I'll possibly talk your ear off)

I wanted to add a disclaimer about my scars (the circular shapes on my arm): I included them because they're there enxkansn nothing I can do about it now, I'm not romanticizing sh.

Brief vent in the tags, feel free to skip it.

veilguard spoilers under the cut plz

I wonder though, if the complete unpopularity of the actual choice you gotta make at the beginning of the end run is going to be like, listened to because either you kill dwarf jesus, or the ONLY BLACK MAN IN THE MAIN CAST AND HIS DOG and both choices SUCK and it's not fucking telegraphed anywhere that this choice is going to result in the death of one of your party members. Especially sucked for my first playthrough where I romanced davrin, chose him b/c he seemed like the best option and then my character's reaction to his death was just "aw 8("

Can I be honest?? And I don't mean this to be negative or as hate so PLEASE don't use this post as an excuse to hate on the game because I am excited for it.

But?? I'm really not connecting with what we've seen of Rook so far? Like it genuinely could be because I'm watching someone else control them but... They talk A LOT outside of player control and in way that sorta characterizes them in a sort of??? Bland and invasive way. I think it's really hard to make an OC when the player character has so much characterization. And I could be acting a little dramatic since I know Hawke and the Inquisitor were similar, but I think both of them were handled better from the small tidbits we've seen.

Dragon Age isn't a game I come to for playing with just any protagonist. I want to play with MY character. I wanna make them up the way I think is interesting or in a way I find immersive. And I'm not saying that the finished game won't provide that, I'm just. I just hope that it will provide that, and I'm anxious of the event in which it doesn't.

But that's just personal preference and nitpicking, and I'm willing to wait and see more before I start actually getting pressed about this. Since, y'know... The game isn't even out yet.

I’ve seen more people call Chenford overrated than actual Chenford love atp 😭

nonsense under the cut

me: stop posting this much fic, people are annoyed and they think you’re a freak

also me: if I don’t update something every Friday everyone will forget I exist

[asmywhimseytakesme]

It’s gotten to the point where I just delete comments that think it’s funny to address me as an anime character with the same color of hair as me.

I get that people usually mean it to be funny, but it’s kinda like those jokes people make about the name of the person they just met—to them it may be new and fun, but to the other person this is the same conversation they’ve had hundreds of times before and it’s gotten pretty annoying at this point and do I really have to smile through this AGAIN?

I used to just leave the comments alone but I’ve had it completely derail my posts which have nothing to do with the show they’re referencing and then that post ends up just being shown to people who like content about that show because that is all that the comments section is about. So I just quietly remove the comments, and that doesn’t happen anymore.

if youre mentally ill/neurodivergent why the fuck would you hate on other mentally ill or nd peoople? especially if youve both been demonized. this isnt even about empathy or whatever, why would you believe others diagnosises are crazy when you know theres misinformation about yours too?

[warrior-of-sunlight]

Sorry if I'm not fast with responding to messages and all. I'm not feeling too well lately. I'm having some issues with my lungs and I have some joint pains, I'm sleeping most of the day and mentally I'm just a wreck. I'm really missing my dad. Some personal connections are also causing some issues and I'm just not equipped to deal with all of this right now. At least not all at once.

And I just saw I have several messages I just didn't see because tumblr never gave me a notification. So now I feel awful for seemingly ignoring people but somehow answering everything at once seems so daunting. Sometimes I do no like being autistic, why is something so simple as replying so draining?

Vent

Last night I had a nightmare that showed me all people I've ever wronged, hurt, or otherwise ruined a relationship with. Including people not with us anymore. This really fucked me up bad.

I'm struggling a lot to come to terms with my sins. Being a better person never feels like enough. I've fucked a lot of things up that will never heal.

Some friends won't come back.

I guess its part of growing up to accept you were a dumb kid once who said stupid shit. But it harmed me. Being a spiteful, controlling person has hurt me and it hurt others even more. There's no way to turn that back.

No one is unworthy of love, but I struggle to find that worth for myself sometimes.

I'll keep trying. All we can do.

I came across some complaints about the new Silent Hill 2 remake, how it's too "woke" and whatever, and it's honestly made me more pissed off than I would have imagined. I may have to buy this game just so I can leave a positive review.

(I was going to merely watch let's plays, but we'll see.)

Here's an example. Apparently the strip club pic is too body-positive. She looks fat or pregnant(?!?) they say. Here's the real joke, it's pretty much the same sign as in the original game.

And voice-acting, another thing some people complain about? The voice-acting is brilliant. They can convey so much emotion, in such simple ways. Honestly, nearly everything about this game looks and sounds amazing.

Braces suck

I keep telling myself it's worth it for fangs but GHHHHSHDJDJD it hURTDSSS AAAAAAAVSHDHXH

Supressing the urge to just rip all this metal crap out of my mouth is so hard to supress

And for whatever fucking reason i got the combination buff and debuff of fast and strong metabolism, so on one hand i can just power through the effects of things in record time, but unfortunately that also includes painkillers and numbing agents :) so they either don't work or wear off before they do anything substantial

Urrgghrhhh this is aWFUL i can't even bite things

[f1-obsessed333]

They say time is a great healer. I think that’s a lie.

It’s more a numbing agent. The pain will always be there to some extent.

It's painfully obvious when you don't read my pinned by the way 😊😊
