#I feel defeated

[dg-kino]

I saw smth that my mutuals would like, and i went to tag them but accidentally refreshed the page

I have been searching, for 2 hours, trying to find the post again, but alas I cannot, and so @cherrybutnowepic @transgirl-gaming-thoughts instead please accept this drawing of Sonic the Hedgehog, by mine own hands

I am sorry, but have we as white women learned nothing?

I looked at the polls and I felt the need to call us out. Black and POC women have been warning us for DECADES. And we do this? And we act happy?

Are we still surprised about the fact that between a white man and a white woman they would choose a white man?

We have learned nothing.

“Today, with the defeat of ERA, the tightening economy, and increased conservatism, it is easier once again for white women to believe the dangerous fantasy that if you are good enough, pretty enough, sweet enough, quiet enough, teach the children to behave, hate the right people, and marry the right men, then you will be allowed to co-exist with patriarchy in relative peace, at least until a man needs your job or the neighborhood rapist happens along. And true, unless one lives and loves in the trenches it is difficult to remember that the war against dehumanization is ceaseless.”

This was said by Audre Lorde more than 30 years ago. This was a warning. We didn’t listen.

WE NEED TO LISTEN NOW, MORE THAN EVER, TO WOC.

for what it's worth I think "keyboardjam" is cool! Like the arrangement of letters is interesting and aesthetically pleasing and it's unique too 🤷‍♀️

Yeah, I mean I don't disagree, lol.

(referencing this post)

The problem is it's just too long! And what would people call me anyways? There isn't an easy nickname I can attach to it that would work (I'm not about to let people call me Key or Board, and certainly not Jam). If I can't just be "keyboardjam" (which was also taken btw) I'd have to add more to an already lengthy word. I whipped up the name "reigrace" because I think it sounds pretty, and I assumed it was unique lol. It sounds distinguishable, at least. I have thought about it, but idk a way to merge "keyboardjam" (a cool looking word that fits my chaotic vibe and tendency to ramble) with "reigrace" without being impersonal, convoluted, or too long. "keyboardjam" was always a goofy little placeholder and so it just looked like baggage at the end of my "real" name. I mean I'd cringe in embarrassment imagining people tagging me and having to add this placeholder at the end of my url because I couldn't think of anything better 😭

Now here's the thing: my 5-year plan.

Rant longer than my old url continues under the cut hehe:

I've always wanted to be an art blog and someday I want to be good and efficient enough to do commissions. And I mean who wants to commission art from someone named keyboardjam 😭? What does keyboard-jamming have to do with art 😭? Could you even trust someone with that name with your art? It just sounds to careless in that context, yk? It just feels so random and unnecessary 😭

But! Fret not. My name on ao3 is still Keyboardjam (or maybe it's keyboardjamming? I don't remember- I haven't posted on there Yet) because there actually is a connection there, it fits my chaotic vibe, and I think it would be memorable/funny to read a really serious fic by someone who claims to be keyboardjamming lol. And! If I ever down the road get enough attention/demand towards my fics Reigrace-keyboardjam will totally return in the form of a side blog.

(I also want to open up a reigrace-tunes side blog for music discussion and a reigrace-art side blog just for my drawings in maybe a year, but I digress).

Basically, I'm at the genesis of my blog/online presence and I'm trying to plan what would make the most sense later on. I also have to finalize a decision because I've already changed my url 3 times within a year 😭. But ALSO I feel like it's too late to completely abandon Reigrace because she's cute, she's a vibe, I'm attached to her, and that's who all my moots/followers know me as now. The only downsides of Reigrace are that others exist (although I don't think any would conflict with my art commissioning/cause confusion to potential purchasers) and also people might not know how to pronounce "rei" (the "ei" makes the "A" sound so it's pronounced like Rey or like a ray of sunshine)

This is just hard for me because I'm so fickle and I always change my interests, so I don't know what I will still vibe with in 5 years. Up until now I've only ever used my actual irl government name (or a variation of it) as for usernames so. This is uncharted territory for me and that's for a reason.

tl;dr- I have a lot of feelings. I'm very insecure about my inability to come up with a unique and snappy url. Usernames are the bane of my existence. I've decided reigrace is my digital artist persona. I'm trying to think ahead. Keyboardjam isn't dead.

Did you know it’s legal in the USA for mattress companies to put fiberglass in their mattresses? They don’t even have to label them! So if you wanna commission me so I can buy a new bed I won’t stop you

i have a headcanon that Yoichi trims AFO's hair because i can't help but compare AFO's nicely trimmed hair to Yoichi's and i thought someone had to have cut AFO's hair for him and it is only logical for me to assume it was Yoichi who did. I think AFO would only trust Yoichi to be so close to him with a sharp object like a pair of scissors lol

I think Yoichi would have also liked cutting his brother's hair at first, because it would make him feel helpful in a way? And I just think even when AFO put him in the vault, AFO would still go there to get his hair trimmed by Yoichi.

and once Yoichi joins the resistance, he offers to do this for Kudo as well.
