Watching all this pomp and frippery for Basim joining the assassins makes me think that Amunet would disapprove.

“why do people clown on matpat so much :( he’s just trying his best!!”
maybe it’s his constant refusal to correctly gender non-binary characters. or how he steals fantheories and claims them as his own. or the fact that he blamed erika’s suicide on cancel culture. or his constant cherry-picking of texts in order to fit his own pre-conceived notions despite there being canonical reasons as to why his argument is wrong. idk. just a thought.

marvel should hire me to write bc i'd pull the funniest thing on earth where i am wiping his catholic slate CLEAN and i would explcitily have him go ehhhh i've never really been religious me and my dad went some easters and christmases and attended a few services outside of that but that stopped by the time i was around 10 and my dad just kinda gave up on it because he didn't particularly want to go by that point either. and even then we hadn't gone every year for easter and christmas in that time frame. and then we never bring that shit up again in the story. he is only catholic in the sense he went a few times and it's the only church experience he knew and his dad probably grew up going to church more in his youth being dragged in by his family but he never felt particularly compelled to go back to it once he moved out on his own. catholic only in the fact that his family was irish catholic but his dad is a lapsed catholic who did not give a fuuuuuck

Ok the one thing i haven't been talking about that's been going on behind all this job stuff...i hurt my knee while running a week before everything happened. Not the bad knee the GOOD knee. I had been making plans to see the doctor the week where instead my boss took me into a meeting room and told me so sorry you're laid off and please leave the building quietly without explaining to anyone.
and the thing anyone not in the US might not realize: americans IMMEDIATELY lose their health ins*urance the minute they get laid off. Liberal states like WA, CA, and OR are some of the few who have social health but even that takes a while to sign up for, it's not an automatic transfer. But what is automatic is that the minute you no longer are working you are expected to pay out of pocket for any health costs.
I was looking at the prospect of being unemployed, building a portfolio, and looking for work all while being unable to keep up my usual level of exercise. Exercise is really the only thing i use to manage my depression - i have known since high school that if i go even a week without regular cardio im fucking screwed. So yeah, i've been scared shitless these past few weeks - not about finding a new job but mostly just not wanting to hit that spiral down. especially when im supposed to be "advertising" myself as an artist.
BUT after a heck of a lot of very careful stretching (thank you dance background), icing, and generally trying to stay off my knee unless necessary (even driving ffs) - this weekend i was able to go running (4 miles, soft dirt trail), walk to and from the grocery store, and walk around ALL day yesterday at the gardens. And my knee feels completely normal. :D

think at some point during their post-cage travels adam and michael stop at a petting zoo and is equal parts freaked out and fascinated by the horses because he hasn’t seen them in a thousand years and he all but forgot about them but he reaches out to pet one anyway and gets that very very human sensation of awe when a big animal lets you pet it because it IS a big animal who can do major damage to regular humans and it’s standing there being friendly to you anyway. and michael’s standing off to the side like you know it’s just a horse right? I’M bigger than that thing. you’ve literally seen my true form. and adam’s like shut up it’s different. do you want to pet it? and he’s so happy with the whole situation and smiling so widely that michael folds like wet paper and just goes sure. whatever. i’ll pet the damn horse

i swear, every pride month, i end up unfollowing like close to a dozen people--including mutuals--because everyone just gets completely politically unhinged and horrible. either it is aphobia, misogyny, or antisemitism, but soooo many people just go off the rails with it. i dunno what it is about this month, but where i used to look forward to it, i've begun to absolutely dread it.
i used to love pride online because irl pride is so hostile to jews (it isn't that much better here, tbh) and i could at least participate here, but where it used to be mostly sane, it has quickly spiraled into homophobia/biphobia/aphobia, misogyny, and exploitative regressive politics where the entire point of pride is sidelined to appeal to some fucked up groups that this website loves propping up as mascots. no one on here seems capable of being normal about forgotten marginalized groups, like women, aces, and jews. it even has a lead up sometimes; the lead up this year felt like pms, my dash has been so bad the past couple weeks and today the floodgates opened. i haven't seen this much unmasked misogyny and aphobia in a long time and it is only day one. this year is gonna suck, i can just feel it.
all this to say, if i end up unfollowing you and you're a mutual, it isn't personal. i'm just getting close to my wits end
