*takes up smoking just to have an excuse to go outside and experience fresh air + sunlight during the workday*
#ok so i legit took up smoking cloves when i was at uni bc it was the only excuse to go outside for fresh air between lectures#and to hang out with the cool professors#but now i wish i was out there smoking#like#herring#(also i stopped smoking p much as soon as i graduated bc the reasons i did it were no longer there)

imagine you're a French guy in the 60s putting your fist up a bald man's asshole (you're gay and you're at the bathhouse btw) and he turns around you see his face and it's Michel Foucault and he's like Ah, merci beaucoup
#due to my username i am obligated to reblog this#is this the first time in the 84 years i've been on tumblr i've seen a reference to my username's namesake in the wild#if so it's the best possible way it could happen

Look. Look I’m not reading as much fanfic as I used to.
But in case any young people out there need to hear this- it is very normal for gay people to just. take turns. For a lot of the stuff. That some of you. Seem to think are static, binariatic, opposing personality traits.
#this has sadly been A Thing in fandom for years and i fear it will always continue to be one#for as long as there are a glut of creators who just haven’t had a lot of gay sex#and as such their primary introduction to gay sex is reading other fanworks where gay sex happens#then we’ll keep seeing misconceptions about gay sex in fanworks#i tried REALLY HARD in an old fandom like 10 years ago to get people to stop discoursing about which of two dudes was bottoming#both sides had pages and pages of meta and character analysis to back up their arguments#as if there’s some essential set of traits that makes you like one sexual position over another#just to spite everybody i exclusively wrote them both as sides#no penetrative sex for anybody! which often happens irl anyway! lots of gay sex isn’t penetrative and some queers aren’t into it!#side note: top and bottom don’t equal dom and sub and (shockingly) some relationships don’t have that dynamic at all#i hate that we’re still having this conversation

being so staunchly anti generative ai while everyone around you is "i used chatgpt" and "i asked grok" and google search is useless and every company is implementing ai and every single celeb is taking ai money and partnering with ai is like... it's so jarring. why can't you see the harm like i can? why are you so lazy? why are we making society this stupid? can we please stop? it's killing people does that not matter to you?
#had a BIG spiral about this today#like nearly had to leave a situation out of anger#the sheer willingness to abandon your supposed principles in the face of minor inconvenience is fucking staggering#like i asked someone what they would have done instead of using chat gpt 5 years ago and why they can't just do that now#like your justifications suck you do not need it and it is not good#i'm so tired#it just hurts over and over again seeing how much people just do not care

#this bothers me so much in workplaces#there ARE just certain jobs that end up having a built in period of idleness#but that person still needs to be present#like years ago i temped at a few reception desks#and mostly i had a few flurries of daily tasks and then there would be a quiet period in between them with the occasional request or visito#and in one post it was so dead quiet all day that i had LITERALLY NOTHING TO DO most of the time#the manager of that team worked in the office just behind the reception desk#and installed a window in the office wall so he could see out into the lobby (directly behind the reception desk)#with a mirror finish so he could see out but no one could see in#and one time he popped out of his office to tell me off for reading the bbc news page because “it looked unprofessional”#to have anything other than the company website up on my computer monitor#BRO NOBODY'S LOOKING AT MY COMPUTER SCREEN EXCEPT YOU YOU FUCKING CREEP#it was awful#so i just used my outlook email drafts to write short stories and articles and email them to my personal email at the end of the day#that manager also strongarmed me into befriending him on facebook#ugh ugh ugh#i do not take well to being surveilled in the workplace fuck off#i hope OP's degree is going well

So a few months ago, I fell down a rabbit hole of looking at vintage cow creamers - a charming, if impractical to clean bit of kitchenware if ever there was one. I eventually invested in this udderly beautiful girl from Jersey, and I wanted to paint her a lovely meadow to frolic in.

In case you’re wondering what the Julian and Garak that live in the little model of DS9 that I’m rotating in my mind are up to right now, they’ve read Anne of Green Gables for book club and trying to agree on which one of them is the Anne in the relationship and which one is the Diana
#these are normal thoughts and ideas#coming soon to a fic near you#garashir#elim garak#julian bashir#ds9#now i want to paint them hanging in a late 19th century farmhouse in holosuite Prince Edward Island#🫠

People can handle evil characters(for the most part--usually they twist their behavior and water it down) but people really can't handle good characters that lose their head or lose themselves and have a moment of fallen grace. Fandom has shown this time and time again. They really look at them as worse than the initial evil.
#this is nothing new#like generally calvinism and more broadly christian culture have a lot to answer for wrt these kinds of belief#but also it puts me in mind of the sort of story where an apocalypse or other such disaster has happened#and there's a lot of interpersonal conflict and people fucking each other over in the wake of it#and it's a 'deep' story that 'gets at the heart of humanity's inherent selfishness and cruelty' and like... no?#i mean conflict makes for a dramatic story#if everyone cooperated it would be a VERY different narrative but one isn't necessarily more a reflection of 'real humanity' than the other#see also audience who are like 'well if it were me i would have just done [extremely sensible logical thing]'#as if they genuinely can predict how they'd act in a gut-wrenching world-ending scenario#and apply their coolheadedness sitting safely on their sofa to a character under extreme duress or even in a no win situation#sure jan#isn't it more interesting to have characters who are allowed to have nuance and contradict themselves and contain multitudes#and still be good#sigh#writing
