#and IVE HAD WINE TOO | Explore Tumblr Posts and Blogs

(I have no idea if this will make sense—sorry I’ve had some wine this evening and so I’m rambling)

I think this is a “popular” opinion but not widespread—people need to understand that there is so much nuance to reading. Obviously there’s the “you can like things I don’t like” and vice versa, but also in HOW people enjoy things. Like take Fourth Wing (I know I know), but while I also agree with a lot of the complaints, I still was just like “that was a fun time, I totally ignored all the sex scenes bc I hate how they were written, but I was vibing the whole time.” And I feel like some people would still respond to my opinion like “okay but it was so horrible how did you even enjoy it at all??? Lame”

Like okay Betty, I love high fantasy as much as you, but sometimes I want something that just fucks, okay?

(and not to say you aren’t allowed to not like things, but there seems to be a fine line between “hey! I didn’t like this but that’s okay” and “I hated this and I CANNOT comprehend why ANYONE could find even an inkling of fun from this + I’m going to subtly implicate that I think people who like this are stupid”) (obviously not for books that are objectively hurtful or offensive)

And of course you can go so many different ways than just that example, but it’s a mix of gate-keeping, prejudice, lack of empathy, and a bit of a superiority complex that makes it so hard for the reading community to really be united.

#you are SO right i’m glad you’re saying it #the superiority thing is so truly genuinely unbelievably exhausting but it’s how some people get through the day so idk idc #but yeah i’ve had irls scoff and laugh at my bookshelf and i’m like dude. i’m 24 years old ok like #i don’t need to play weird childish games about who’s better for reading what #i like it and it’s bad vs. it’s good and not for me vs. i don’t like it and i think it’s bad vs. it’s good and i love it? all valid!!#all real!!! and where a book falls on that axis will be different for every single person!!#i read a good amount of literary fiction and as an amateur writer i usually like it because it’s so fun to read invested writing like that #but ALSO! i usually have a lot more FUN reading a romance novel or a silly fantasy series #and i read primarily for entertainment and not for educational value. and that’s okay!#it’s so bizarre because you don’t see people scoffing when someone watches the walking dead instead of a documentary or like the letter M #but as soon as someone reads for entertainment above anything else it’s a waste of time and they’re stupid.#this feels entirely unrelated to your ask but i’ve wanted to talk about it for too long #and IVE HAD WINE TOO #i agree w you wholeheartedly though and i’m glad you sent this #anon #asked and answered #hot takes

Lyanna starks haunts the narrative. You should see how jealous Elia's fans are from this fact. They want george and the narrative to care for her. They think it's unfair that Elia doesn't haunt it too when all that she is is a plot device, while lyanna is the woman of the prophecy and the mother of Jon, the promised one. It's not like I hate Elia, but someone dared to say that Elia deserved the flower crown at Harrenhall when it's lyanna's motif.

I can't wait until they see that even Arthur Dayne cared for lyanna more. He probably stayed by her side comforting her after Rhaegar's death. I wouldn't be surprised if he was attracted to her. Not to hate on Elia but to show them the truth.

i'm so sorry but you've come to the wrong place, yes i was crying over lyanna a couple hours ago but i've cried over elia too because what could you possibly have against a dead woman in asoiaf who's only crime was... being in an arranged marriage? not being lyanna?

in all seriousness maybe george and the narrative don't care about elia but i do. she watched her baby's head be caved in and then was brutally raped and murdered and i hate that that's the most important thing we know about her. i wish elia was as important as lyanna, but how cruel is it to sit and compare two dead women by how much they matter to the living men.

also i have no idea what you're talking about arthur dayne and you can say this isn't hating, but it feels kinda like hating to me 😭

EDIT: i've thought about it more and "i wouldnt be surprised if he was attracted to her. not to hate on elia but to show them the truth" is such a wild statement please don't come back 😭

#this is to blame on the three glasses of wine ive had sorry...#and it was so out of nowhere ive never even mentioned elia 😭#but had to set the record straight that i mourn her too ❤️#this feels a little mean but you were in my ask box...#asoiaf #got #game of thrones #lyanna stark #elia martell #answered

#when i got hashtag sick i was in hospital and i was doing my regularly scheduled call with my dad #and i really had no plans of telling him bc ive done that before and its not like he can scare the MS away or anything #i dont know what happened. maybe because it was such a fucking bad episode. maybe because i was so tired. maybe it was a secret 3rd thing #but one minute was like fine then i just burst into tears and i was crying so hard which is MEGA EW BC IM NOT A CRIER LIKE THAT #and my dad freaked out and he was like whats wrong and i didnt wanna tell him but I also sounded insane bc i spontaneously started sobbing #and he was getting more alarmed and i was upset that id upset him and so i just spat it out i was like 'listen king'#'its no biggie but my body is trying to kill me again and im just a little sad atm' and he replied 'baba why wouldnt you tell me?'#and this man who has a very big serious job literally dropped everything and took a 20 hr flight over #and he genuinely just grabbed one of his work suitcase because he showed up with nothing but dress shirts and his laptop #and i think maybe it healed me a little. i mean it def also made me sad too but mostly healed me #and he'd been here for a couple of weeks and he left today and i feel shit about being sad about it #again because he has a very big and very serious job and i genuinely dont understand how he even just showed up like that #so I felt guilty throughout #anyway i dont think he drinks anymore but i was like king have a sip of wine with me and he did and it was lovely #and I hope I become my fathers daughter and not my mother's child. praying to both our gods #heres to healing ❤️‍🩹

we sang in the aeroplane over the sea tgth ☆

#27% circle line with a lovely friend of mine rail tracks screeching etc etc u know the usual. im just gonna write down memories #a few weeks ago my friend read thus spoke zarathustra by the fire to the music she was dancing it was her silhouette #against the flashlight lit up gold and royal blues and tiger's silk i tried not to fall in love with her. in bordeaux we searched #for pomegranates he sent her 300 quid by the beach she cut it open with a knife her hand covered in red we each had a taste of her work #sweet red wet the sweetest grit. too barely clothed to go into the cliffside church they painted my eyes we painted hers #8 shots of gin she screamed joyfully IT'S ALIVE! at the book she said become the child i said i feel like a monster she said i was insane #i tried to believe her. fortified wine and later a red pen crossword defiled by humidity her hair in my hands two king sized beds #pushed next to each other she took her top off she told us to watch her arms raised up the musculature on her back was precise cut from #marble we saw oceans we saw the birds take cold baths the midnight sun over a wasp-infested pool our chemicals in their bodies #gold flakes dark skin gold cross shoulders against mine drawing some form of each other on the train i didn't hesitate #to say her eyes were beautiful over and over monks at the soapshop with titanium credit cards i loved you like i loved no other #he tied his hair up and walked us into the river he held a bullet between his lips i never held his hand he said what an honour #you own too much capital your mother thinks i'm a natural i realised i haven't told my mother i loved her in years she's always been mother #never mom i'll watch you watch seaweeds this is terminal akrasia i'll feel your fingers smear perfume on my lips your girlfriend grins #bite into the straw take the shot hold my hand get it all wrong draw in the sand kiss him right stab through leather shower in chlorine #you're the determinable vicissitude is all yours we won the Game AND the Battle AND the War i'm proud of you like crazy we feed each other #saffron cliffside lovers well-fallen brothers fat cats blue windows southwest sun ALife SynBio design aXAA grow us a city in silico #we've grown to the ends of glee fire-jumper ocean-eater sure-footed lists on lists hands on eyelids не устану искать тебя #...anyway ive put my face on this blog b4 but hiii again #feel free to rb btw the rants r not personal

#british airways completely cancelled my standy plane ticket even though there were empty seats on the plane without giving me a reason #now i can't make it to my uncle's funeral tomorrow. i feel sick to my stomach about it god #i looked at everything but the only option i cant afford and that feels even worse cuz if i didnt go on vacation i couldve been there #and i called my aunt to apologise and let her know im thinking about them all anyways and she had to console Me #even though she's the one burying her husband of 35 years tomorrow and that also makes me feel like shit #i dont know. its horrible i feel horrible and ive had too much wine #sorry to vent in tumblr tags like im a member of a 2020 discord server that only uses the vent and bot channels #i should go throw up in an alley and cry in my friends arms like a real man . okay goodnight

since i started testosterone in february i have been reading a stanza of andrew marvell’s poem ‘the garden’ every month to track the way my voice has changed. today i finished it :-)

#my voice #does it belong in that tag given that i am speaking and not singing. ah well in it goes #andrew marvell #it is exciting to finally be able to post this! given the nature of the project i've been working on it for a while #i can't remember if i was initially intending to post it but i think it's neat so you guys can see it too :-) a questionable gift unto ye #it's one of my favourite ever poems which is why i picked it. partly because it's a cracking poem but also because the garden in #question is very likely fairfax's garden given that marvell wrote it whilst he was living at his house to tutor his daughter :-)#i love the line about melons. i love the idea that fairfax was growing melons. his melonship #also 'the luscious clusters of the vine upon my mouth do crush their wine' is such incredible imagery i think about it all the time #stopping myself now before i start explaining all my favourite parts of the poem because then i would just be reciting the whole poem #sorry the audio quality changes quite a bit by the way i kept changing where i recorded #oh also i skipped a month because my voice hadn't changed at all (between the first and second stanzas i think) which is why the #number of months doesn't quite match up to the number of stanzas #i do wish i had recorded a stanza when i was one month on T given that my voice barely changes in the last few verses. ah well #anyway i hope you enjoy it my dear friends :-) holding you all in my arms #also as usual i have a few messages and things to answer so i will do that soon! i have been enjoying being active again after so long :-)#ive got a song to post soon too. he he ho ho ho. hum hum hum

me: yeah i dont like the flavor of fermented drinks me, trying another fermented drink: surely this will be different

#zeph posting #i have no idea if this cider is good or not #this is straight up more alcohol than ive ever consumed in my life combined tho and ive had maybe 6 ounces of this cider #bc fermented tastes bad and ive only tried wine and beer before #so like. idk 5 mouthfuls before this #and i did not like anyy of them despite all 5 different ones being good according to my friends and family #im still drinking it because i paid for it and i want to see how my body reacts #so far i am way too fucking warm and also giggly

bruh is this not over…..i had it playing still directly in my ears but i was so focused on figuring out the correct places to put the different things in my dishwasher that i did not hear a single thing other than the moderator saying “do you have a plan” and trump responding “i have a concept of a plan” that was the only thing that broke through to me……anyway my dishwasher is supposedly running.

#michelle speaks #i had to reboot it bc it wouldn’t turn on which is weird bc it did when i moved in but whatever #i had to do that last time too and i the breakers r right there anyway so #where r u supposed to put a knife in the dishwasher like in the basket w the other utensils…..#but then the pointy part is sticking out. which is how i did it to be real.#and the flaps on the top rack said they were for wine glasses and chopsticks not knives…..it was harrowing #ive used a dishwasher before ok just not often bc i usually hand wash them. and i haven’t used one in at least like idk. 8 months. at LEAST #and ive used one less than 10 times probably. and some r different ive used 2 different ones……#i don’t like having dirty dishes so i wash them immediately usually. i only had a build up bc the water was out as i said…….

i dont think i ever felt more annoyed at commercials than when those mean girls walmart ads were playing a few months ago or whenever that was

#i think it's mostly bc i thought mean girls was like. an okay movie. a fine movie? i think i liked it #but like. i saw it once. i have no nostalgia for it bc i saw it way later/not when it originally came out #and god the way people are so into it. i mean that is great like i dont wanna be a hater for people enjoying things #but me personally. i do not understand why it's a cult classic or whatever klsjfkdlsfj i hear people quote it all the time and im like. 🧍#so having those quotes i already dont care about re contextualized to try to sell me walmart. god. the worst experience jkfsdjfklJFDKLSJF #tbh maybe it woudlve been worse if i liked the movie but i saw comments saying those commercials were funny so WHATEVER #i feel like it's also the same w/like. vocaloid kfsjdflksjgh like i dont dislike it!! i enjoy some songs #but i never had a vocaloid phase when i was younger. i feel so very neutral about miku #ppl on the internet feel so strongly positive and again thats great and i objectively get it #ive been shown vocaloid songs and some are really catchy #but it is one of those instances where im like man. a level of hype i dont fully understand LOL #miku vocaloid stuff is at least endearing tho. i get.... tired... w/mean girls quotes......... ksljfsljfl #It's Always The Same Ones and i just dont think theyre very funny FKJLDSJFDKLSJF maybe i am a hater damn #jk i do think i liked the movie? god i dont remember i watched it like. i dont even know when. college at the earliest i think #but whatever thats just a case of people having different interests just cuz i didnt care about a thing doesnt man its bad other ppl like i #also tho i think bc the mean girls overquoted bits remind me of like. rae dunn ceramics LOL jkfskfjsekht #or like idk live laugh love stuff. yknow like. dont talk to me until ive had my coffee has same energy as on wednesdays we wear pink. to me #it's facebook wine mom humor.... bc it is people roughly my age that were/are really into it and they are now mom age i guess lwpfhewhfp #god i need to go to bed im tired and it's making me a cranky complainer about stuff that doesnt matter!!!!#went 2 my dash in a dif tab and immediately saw a miku post is she gonna get me for not having strong feelings about her #im sorry miku i just . i dont get it JKFLJDSKLFJKSLD #ur music is fun i just dont proportionately understand. i feel like im missing context w/this one girl maybe thats my bad idk #or maybe it's just i found u too late idk. i will jam to the bops tho #that endless/everlasting/whatever nights thing w/like the 4 alt storyline songs is soooo fun i love those #dont ask me the names of the ppl in them tho i dont fuckin know besides like. 3 of them. one is miku LOL #and those yellow twin kids. len and ren. or rin? len and rin? i dont remember and i dont care enough to look it up sorry small children #theres that blue haired guy that was in the one prsk route i played but i forgot his name again #i dont know if hes in those songs i was talkin about tho i only remember what he looks like in his youthful wonderland alt loll #i talk in the tags bc i get scared it feels safe in my burrow here underground #also im calling mean girls mid and saying i dont have miku hype so i feel like that does warrant going into hiding

my roomates ex ruined a lana del ray concert that made MY ex leave him 5 hours away from home. and it went viral on tiktokx . Same guy who i SCREAMED at through my front door in a bra for CUTTING our window open while trying to stalk my roomate at 1am. None of you know these things i think so this will make no sense

#yeti #One of my employees had a heart attack too. ive called 911 2 times this year.#I had to narcan my friend after she died infront of me then my power went out for 7 days and i filed a lawsuit against my power company afte #r drinking an entire bottle of wine and i forgot until the state attorney general sent me a case number 2 months later #Like what else happened. i havnt been journaling shit on here like I used to #I went to a cobrah concert on shrooms idk thats kinda lame compared to everythjng else #witnessed a fistfight at pride idk ehat else. Some girl threw a handle of titos into the streets
