#but we wont talk about that part

for real! (from kadji amin)
[Image description: Screenshot of text:
What I've realized is that I believe that the matter of gender is practical and relational. It's not about who you are inside, it's more about how you would feel most comfortable in the world. It's not 'Who are you?' but 'How do you want to live?'
Had that been the discourse when I was coming up, I would have breathed a sigh of relief. I don't have to figure out who I am on the inside, I just have to figure out how I want to live.
end of ID]
#and I kind of felt really sad when they were talking about how like they feel in some ways figuring yourself out is way harder now#bc there is this pressure to like figure out who u Really Are Inside#and instead of being like well maybe my identity goes far beyond gender and like i don't need to find some microlabel#in order to like define who is Me#it's become very fixated on like categorising ur gender rejection in a way that ends up just. making even more genders to constrain u#it's hard to summarise it was like v wordy but I thought this part was so true#for sexuality as well not to tack it on but we have really gotten into the same mindset w sexuality now as well#THANK U @VAKAVANHASAATANA for the ID it wont let me @ you in the text </33

to be honest i liked the zonau more when they were a barely if ever mentioned mystery and a meme in the part of the fandom that watched theory videos
i know their designs are neat but i think their sudden introduction was pretty unnecessary and robbed us of more interesting concepts than it gave us new ones
#ganondoodles talks#zelda#totk#if they had their own game thats well and good#but them suddendly being the only thing anyone cares about in a supposedly direct sequel#like i guess some ppl were tired of the shiekah but theres always someone who doesnt like something#i just think they already had a cool mysterious ancient civilization that could have been more explored#they already had their place and werent mysterious to a point were it added anything#like the zonau being something that was just a lost part of history made botw feel more lived in#keep that mystery#and expand on the shiekah- the one that we know alot of but also theres enough to get to know about to make another game with#....sorry here i go rambling in the tags again#i will never understand why they didnt do a majora thing#make it a different dimension and do whatever you want with all those models you want to reuse#its such a failure at being a sequel it just wont stop hurting

So I heard about good guy butterfly ....
I have some comments et cetera
#jello's art farts#ml#gabriel agreste#papillon#hawkmoth#miraculous special#i like to imagine this gabriel was able to process his grief in a mostly healthy manner#and took a step back from his work as part of it#so the fashion world sees him as a bit of a has-been because he wont work himself to death anymore and has fun with it instead#and this is him bringing back a look from his enemies-to-lovers days of stopping his ne-er-do-well future wife#(shhhhh no we wont talk about timeline)#hesperia

theres a 99% chance we’re gonna move so i have to start packing little things now cause it makes the transition easier but i hate it i dont want to
#i know i sound like am immature little kid just pouting and stomping my foot#but i’ve had to move every two years since i was like 14 for so many different reasons#each place ive moved to just got increasingly worse so i think i have the right to pout like a 14 yr old girl#but its just dumb#if i start taking stuff down now itll make it easier to leave cause it wont feel like my space by then#its what ive always done#if i pack weeks ahead of time it just feels like im leaving a hotel or something#but right nows the hard part#im not even over my childhood home/s#i cant talk about those without crying and its been 20 years#i’d just like to stay in one place for awhile#we wont be going far cause me and my sister both have jobs right here but#its still different#im tired of seeing my stuff in boxes im tired of not feeling safe in my own space#it all just makes me so unstable cause i cant plant my roots anywhere#idk maybe its stupid#if everything goes according to plan#we’ll probably be moving a little after memorial day#and all i want to do is lock my door and refuse to let anyone do anything#im still just that little girl that was leaving her childhood bedroom and moving hours away#tbd#i didnt even get to skate today cause its raining#whatever im gonna get in bed and watch movies til i can go to sleep#if ive been bad at responding to msgs or not posting as much . this is why 👍#any sort of change like this makes me isolate myself like crazyy

Are you like, normal about people who might happen to have endogenic origins or are you awful about it. I want to check because I didn’t ask to be endogenic but the people who think they know the end all be all of how brains and minds work still hate me for it
first off we arent comfortable talking about syscourse one way or another, we've seen how it has hurt people on both sides and its just toxic in itself, so we will not be giving our opinion on it
secondly we do not appreciate how rude you worded that, and it is a prime example why we do not want to be involved. please don't ask us questions like this again.
we're a silly fanart blog we draw not make drama
#like it implies that we need to answer carefully because we can either say one thing or you will become hostile or we could say another--#and brush over the fact if we answered incorrectly that you would become aggressive#which is why we dont like talking about it#syscourse is very toxic and a very negative environment and we want no part#so we wont be talking about our stance on either side#we simply dont care enough#we're a ninja turtle blog we aint got time for that shit we're here to be silly#wood wide web#bad vibe hours

being a re:zero fan means trying as hard as you can to not think about how kenichi and naoko are doing. like i really hope that someway somehow when the story ends, or at some point during it, they at least get somekind of closure. like it makes me so so so sad they love subaru so much they literally love their boy SO much please let them see their boy
#re:zero#every day i think about how kenichi and naoko are missing their boy....#they were clearly both so worried about him before he got isekai’d and then he just disappears thats not ok#subaru said he was almost 18 when he first got to legunica. so like his birthday was maybe a month or two away#how did they feel. it was his 18th birthday. are they okay#its been like a year and a half since hes been in legunica by now. thats probably another birthday too#how many more until they see their boy again? i wont be happy until they see their boy again.#i can at least hope that given what weve seen of them in the trial they have faith that even if their son is missing hes going to be okay#that hes actually just out there somewhere living life bc he is. but hes also dying death quite a bit. they dont have to know that part#but to be frank... if i was in their place and my son was acting the way he was acting and then he just disappears i would assume... yeah...#whatever lets talk about reinhards daddy issues again so we dont have to think about this

while im very much supportive of the anti work movement and in favour of reducing the amount of hours people are required to work to earn a living,,, sooo much of the rhetoric seems to centre around 9-5 office type jobs where productivity is measured by tasks completed etc like every single 4 day work week experiment i've seen has been smth along those lines and bangs on about how workers are more productive in their output and do "5 days worth of work in 4" etc or aim for majority remote work when like. that isn't possible in most service jobs like healthcare etc. even tho service industries are some of the worst when it comes overworking and burnout
#like im not saying there *isn't* talk about or action on improving work in service industries#but it seems to be an afterthought compared to aforementioned output-based office type jobs#even tho reduced hours and number of shifts are Absolutely needed in service jobs#but it's a lot more difficult to implement due to the nature of the jobs and the current massive amounts of shortages in these areas#like im approaching this from someone who works in healthcare where there are barely enough people to cover day shifts let alone night shif#and yeah a big part of that shortage is bc of the overworking that's led to burnout and many people quitting#and companies/governments being stingy and hiring the absolute bare minimum staff to operate at#so implementing changes like say 6 hour shifts and 4 day work weeks would require them to hire a tonne more people#(as they shouldve in the first place)#but even then they probably wont get even close to getting enough to cover even just current work practices adequately#let alone improved conditions with shorter and reduced number of shifts per person#while also maintaining pay at a liveable amount#tl;dr it's a shittonne more complicated than most 4 day work week office experiments have shown and we need to talk about it more

bitching abt my job again
tags contain frank mentions of transphobia and homophobia
#this happened like. i dont know. a month ago or something but i still keep playing it in my mind#for those unawares: theres been a fucking community outrage over the pride display at the library i work at#and have been working/volunteering at for 5 years#only it never went up. it never went up. bc the mayor came in as a quote unquote private citizen and demanded it taken down#despite the fact that patrons are required to fill out complaint sheets and even then it isnt ensured a display will be taken down#so obviously its a misuse of power that hes spinning into him being a concerned citizen#and i made a whole post bitching abt it and im doing so again (hi) bc i didnt like how our director responded to it#and yeah. so there was a board meeting after that right. well i set up for them as i usually do and let me tell you. that was the first#--time more than like 6 people came to spectate. it was insane.#and i guarantee that this months meeting wont have half as many people that fucking crammed themselves in there to complain abt gay ppl#bc of course they dont give a shit about the library#they just care about how scary the queers are#and yeah it was a shit show. i learned we have a far right organization in our town#and i was sat right in front of her husband the whole time#(standing actually. i was standing between him and my moms chair and he was sighing and grumbling the whole time bc he couldnt muster the#--balls to ask the 5 foot 2 fag in front of him to please move lol. small victories right)#when i say her i mean the leader of the freaks. idk. chairman? anyway she had a whole speech about how like queers are bad and cutting#the penises off little babies or whatever and she pulled up this passage from a book that was part of the display#its some book by the youtuber rowan ellis-- here and queer i think was the title. it was cataloged in our ya section and contained passages#talking about like having safe sex and what dildoes are and all that kind of shit. just really clinical descriptions imo. im not familiar w#--the youtuber really but im assuming they wrote it as informational bc shocker: teens be having sex. unsafe sex. especially queer teens#sourse: i was one of tgose#and...think for a moment. remember when you were a teen. youd rather fucking DIE than listen to your parents give you the sex talk#and chances are if youre gay your parents arent even going to know WHAT gay sex is (hugging without shirts on) so youre going to look#--elsewhere#bc if youre a hormonal fucking teen youre going to figure it out one way or another! especially if youre from (cough) a podunk shitwater#--town like mine that ran on abstinence by way of sex education#i think teens deserve to have access to that sort of information through trusted means. and i do mean het teens too#but no these fucking morons put on airs like everyones waiting till marriage--no! not my becky sue! as if they werent fucking around in#--holy shit i reached taglimit. i didnt ecen know there was one. hold on

oatmeal book! oatmeal book!! oatmeal book!!!
#animorphs#book 16 was something ELSE#everybody's like oh yeerk serial killer episode but the buried part of the lede is#that this is the book where jake really starts to crack under pressure of leadership and start making unilateral and divisive decisions#like letting said serial killer live because that person isn't just killing humans he's killing YEERKS#and his and cassies rift over it . the rift that will allow them to win the war but which their relationship wont survive#and that very chilling final scene with the whole gang hanging out and helping do chores around the barn#and he says something like we were still us. for now#q#but we're not here to talk about all that! we're here to read the oatmeal book!

yknow i think a lot of the really far-gone transfemme vs transmasc people who still play by the 6th grade milquetoast "trans women are targeted way more than trans men cause femininity is bad and masculinity is good In Our Society, so trans men get free acceptability passes" feminism forget that trans men/transmascs started life. as. little girls. we were mistaken, from birth, for baby girls. and we were raised by our parents to believe that we were little girls.
a lot of trans men and transmascs then grew up to be teenaged girls
a lot of trans men and transmascs were adult women too
and for a while we *believed* we were girls and women. some of us even WISHED we were girls and women (points at myself). and much more importantly, we were continually seen as girls and women. a lot of the time, we are STILL seen as girls and women, even with full fuckin beards and baritone voices. especially if we need to go to any kind of medical professional. this is what our free acceptability pass looks like?
its just so much more nuanced than these 'boys vs girls' people ever seem to care to think about. even binary trans folks dont have the same sense of cisgendered binary that cis people do. we literally cross from one fake end of the fake-binary to the other. thats where the trans in transgender comes from. i dont know how some other trans folks seem to forget that?? i don't know how, somewhere along the line, we forgot that trans men and transmascs also directly suffer under misogyny?
#my t#sorry for more gender based griping i saw smth on twitter that reminded me of this.#the bright spots of Little Girl euphoria i had in my childhood were rare and beautiful. i refuse to forget them.#my perception of myself i had as a child is important to me.#possibly in a different way to others because. yknow. i am plural.#and plural folks have a different brain and sense of understanding of themselves that singlets wont have. its just a neurological differenc#but my little girl self is an important part of my present day adult man self.#and looking at the adult trans men in my system who are still under my care today-#the little girls they were - however fucking briefly - are still important to me and to them too.#and i fully understand that a lot of other trans folks cannot think of themselves this way#but trans mens experiences of being mistaken for little girls are as important as trans womens experiences being mistaken for little boys#we are all trapped in the same systemic cycle of gender-based abusive conditioning.#really we just have to do away with assigning gender to baby bits completely. its weird.#trans men are either eternally confused women or just invisible#and crushed under the weight of maintaining a cis-man image.#i mean for fucks sake#my partner system and us have been talking about having a kid for ages#if i were to get pregnant i'd just have to accept the fact that i have to masquerade around as a woman for 9 months.#because there is NOTHING for pregnant transmascs.#nothing.#there aren't even a lot of gender neutral options for maternity clothing.#even the term 'maternity' denotes femininity and motherhood.#paternity clothing isn't a thing that exists for me for look forward to or even mildly worry about.#and i'm just talking about a *planned* pregnancy involving a trans man. what do yall think happens to transmascs with unwanted pregnancies.#what a privileged life i lead as a no-op no-hrt trans man. big cishet loves me because i am obviously exactly like a cis man now#just want people to stop infighting and being stupid tbh.#breaking: bro strider fictive gets really fuckin pressed about gender and systemic abuse again!

Also I forgot to update: last Sunday I got Sharpe's Command (thank you Amazon Spain) and I just want to say. Bernard Cornwell sometimes you are the bane of my existence but I lost my MIND reading this book. I couldn't put it down and screamed at Sam as I read ahead bc CORNDOG GAVE US SO MUCH TERESA AND TERESA/SHARPE STUFF. SO MUCH. TERESA GETS HER DAY IN THE SUN AND I HAD TO REFRAIN FROM SCREAMING W/ ASSUMPTA RIGHT NEXT TO ME WHILE I READ.
Literally this book is SO FUCKING GOOD for both teresa/sharpe content AND teresa content I am SO happy with it, and it absolutely was worth the wait. Every time he could've done something disappointing he didn't and i kicked my feet and twirled my hair and rolled around on the couch as I read it and ooughhhhhhhh it's now my favorite Sharpe book EVER!!!!!!!!!! TERESA MORENO MY BELOVED SHE GOT SO MUCH STUFF IN THIS BOOK....THANK U FOR MY LIFE CORNDOG
#;ooc#(i wont post spoilers here yet for a while but AAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)#(I put SO many fucking sticky tabs in it to highlight my favorite parts)#(THEYRE SO CUTE THEY HAVE SO MANY CUTE INTERACTIONS)#(SHARPE LOVES HIS WIFE SM IN THIS BOOOOOOOOOOK!!!!!!!!!!)#(AND TERESA LOVES HIM TOO ;WWWW;)#(there's a fantastic scene that made my heart SWOON AND I CANT TALK ABOUT IT)#(SAM HURRY UP AND READ IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)#(I want to scream about it there's so many good teresa scenes. one is so fucking funny)#(she is so smart and cunning and GOOD and there was like. one part that made me go hmmm but its forgivable)#(okay small spoiler for one of my favorite parts: teresa + 🧱)#(ALSO THE END IS THE PART OF THE ENTIRE BOOK)#(ITS MY FAVORITE SCENE EVER FOR TERESA)#(i couldnt believe he gave her so much. corndog took my question to him seriously when i messaged him on his website)#(me: mr cornwell sir can we plz have more partisan teresa :(( we never see her be a partisan much at all in the books)#(corndog: you Know What Kiran i will make this book Just for You)#(now its 1am and im fucking feral about this book)

hmmmmmm.................vent post under tags...... feel free to give advice or dont¯\_(ツ)_/¯
#i think this is an autism related thing#but i genuinely feel like i wasnt made right for the world we live in#like something is just missing from me that ive never seen ppl talk about#and i know this is going to sound entitled and privileged and i KNOW i know i promise and im so lucky i can even be thinking about this but#it feels weird to have the privilege to be scared#this is specifically in regards to working#like having a job. like going to work#i feel like im missing an extremely important part of my brain or my BEING that is capable ot going through the motions of participating#in society. i never felt that switch of wanting to get a job in high school to make money for myself and get that experience#i feel like there's something i MISSED where everyone took a class on how to apply and go to interviews and write resumes and not be scared#like i NEED to be walked through every SINGLE step because i dont know HOW#and i see my peers and the literal entire world around me participating in this atmosphere and i dont know where to start#im fucking twenty three years old and ive only ever been an intern and an assistant#not even a full year of working#i cant drive and i probably wont ever because thats a whole other can of worms#and that means i have to rely on other people to even get to wherever it was i needed to go#i feel like a fucking child because im missing this knowledge that everyone else seems to have#ive tried i really have but none of it seems simple and its all so much and there arent steps to follow#i mean there ARE but its like 1) look up job 2) apply 3) interview 4) yay you're employed#and im talking about each micro step inbetween#what am i missing#and then theres the fucking demand avoidance that slaps me across the face whenever my mom brings it up to me like i KNOW youre being#supportive and encouraging and its not your fault my brain turns off and decides im full of shame bc i cant CONFRONT ANYTHING#jesus christ#manf i know u can see this maybe dont bring it up to mom i can do that on my own maybe#i WANT to help i just want to help at my own pace but unfortunately the world isnt built around individual paces and nothing revolves#around me. i know this#i want to help my mom i want her to never be stressed about money and to retire and never work or help me pay my student loans but i#genuinely feel like theres a switch that never turned on in my head and im being left behind and i genuinely dont know how to. like be alive

sigh i guess it's less about "it should have happened earlier" and more "it doesn't feel like there's going to be enough time to resolve this"
#i've talked through what i instinctively didn't like about this episode on several occasions today now#and... yeah every part of what boeing is causing in sandray is true to character#(boundary issues possessiveness etc)#but i guess there's just. not enough time to devote to everything i wanted for them#when we have to do boeing hours#i don't object to the plot point at all (i am a jealous ray afficionado as we know)#its just that theres stuff i wanted sandray to cover that they havent and its starting to look like they wont#(sand breakdown. how does he get by without selling plum wine. etc)#and i just....... man we didnt need this#if we must have it i understand why#and i see the character points#and i love angry little ray i do#but. sigh. do you get me#rowan chatter#also boeing does not have human motivations but that's... you know. genre a little bit
