just an fyi, and it feels like it needs to be said here: your blog is your own space and you should be able to say whatever the fuck you want. if you’re sad? vent. get sad. maybe put it under a cut, definitely tag it, but get sad. if you feel like you need someone to talk to? drop a freaking message about how you’re feeling like you could use a buddy, or anything randomly engaging. if you’re having a hard time, you should feel safe and okay to talk about it in your own space. we’re writers and we’re people and while there’s a lot to be said for how engagement outside of oneself is necessary in rp (and really really needs to improve), i think there’s a lot that must be said about people reaching out to others. it’s become so solitary here — the whole ‘reblog from source’ thing when it comes to shit like about and musings is absurd. the whole refusing to like things is ridiculous. yes, curate your space, that’s important, but curating your space into a studio apartment only you live in doesn’t make this a community anymore, it makes it a studio apartment you live in.
just be yourself here. do whatever you want. but i’m always saying: remember you’re not alone, and don’t let yourself feel that way.

I used to love to dance and I lowkey still do, but I feel like I’m somehow even more in my head now than I used to be because I also find it so cringe and it doesn’t make sense. Like? What do you mean I have to do this in front of other people when I go out??? Or when I’m at home and see some good choreo online, thinking about actually starting and stopping the video to learn the moves and putting in the effort to practice them alone is so 🤢😬😖🫣

When is the Red Room "graduation ceremony"?
So I read a quote by Florence Pugh that said that the Red Room graduation ceremony takes place when the girls are around 8 years old. Is that right?
Does anybody know if this is supported by the movie canon? (Or even the comic books? Because I'm not familiar with those and as far as I know, the hysterectomy bit is a movie addition, anyway?)
I'm just wondering because I want to know if the implication here is supposed to be that they undergo the hysterectomy before going through puberty.
Cause if they had their ovaries removed prior to puberty, wouldn't that mess with hormone production and thus the onset and regular timeline of puberty? I'm a humanities major, so this is not my area of expertise at all, but just based on what I've researched so far, I'm like, huh, wouldn't this fuck with way more than their ability to menstruate/become pregnant? Like, even if they went through this at 17 or 18yo, they'd go into immediate early menopause, which would also fuck with their bodies.
Or are we just supposed to suspend our disbelief here? Which, okay, I guess? (Also, yes, Whedon threw this in and he's an idiot.) But if there is canon info I'm missing, I'd really like to know! So if anybody has thoughts/info on this!
