Ugh, I feel so conflicted about Good Omens all the time now - like, every time you see a piece of fanart I've reblogged, just assume there's a solid minute of indecision about queuing it.

Part of me wants s3 to get canceled (and s2 of Sandman as well) and everyone to just forget about his cultural impact, because it would fucking serve him right. Part of me is like, well, these things don't just represent fame and money to him, they're jobs for hundreds of other people, and a big break for at least one or two - plus it's Terry Pratchett's legacy, supposedly the plot they'd worked out together. And then I get suspicious of myself and accuse myself of only wanting to see how GO was going to be wrapped up.

#there's also a part of me that's like #okay #can the people who've made cases for not even being active in HP fandom now turn their attentions to NG?#because I have seen very very little addressing of the fact that he was able to do this in large part because of his fandom #because of his position as A Creator and because of the bona fides he developed through his work of being a Good Guy #and I feel like if you're a fan of any of this shows/books you really really ought to be grappling with this right now!#neil gaiman #good omens

Bones someone did a "Worst Parents" poll over on Twitter and it's going about as well as you'd expect.

"God people will do anything to hate on mentally ill male characters" and it's the guy who hits and yells at his son.

"Crowfeather's only crime was being a bit mean" hitting and humiliating your son= bit mean.

Yes these are things I've actually read

I'm not saying Curlfeather (who was pitted against him in the poll) is better or worse than Crowfeather, but I've seen a lot of people downplaying his abuse towards Breezepaw and acting like people are crazy for thinking Curlfeather was better

It's really wild to see it in action, isn't it? When a dad manipulates (Po3 book 2) and smacks his son (Po3 book 3) for absolutely no benefit besides his own ego, it's "mental illness" and ergo not a big deal. As if they think mental illness is a get-out-of-jail free card for child abuse.

The "Crowfeather Mental Illness" Crowd couldn't HANDLE the kind of mentally ill characters that I stan. They are weak and will not survive the winter.

When they say "stop being mean to boys with a disorder" they mean "stop holding an abusive father accountable for teaching his son slurs so he could get back at the ex-girlfriend who dumped him." When I say "stop being mean to boys with a disorder" I mean that I want to give Breezepelt a gun so he can enforce it himself. We are not the same.

#bone babble #Curlfeather's an interesting conversation for 'bad parents' though and imo one of the best examples to discuss #Because she's so much more nuanced than the common mode of WC child abuse #She never physically hurt her child nor did she emotionally belittle her #But she did manipulate her. She did put her into a position of power. And I'm not a hypocrite like certain Hawkfrost stans--#--I think that is very damaging and Frostpaw's feelings are valid and understandable #Curlfeather died one of the most graphic and horrible deaths in the entire series for her child. But... that doesn't fix what she did.#I wish that the books were able to capture the complicated feeling that Frostpaw could be feeling about her mother right now though.#Crowfeather though he was a piece of shit #no ifs ands or buts #he was just Bad and the conversation is HOW bad #fennelposting

Nothing like Heartstopper S2E8 removing some of Taylor Swift's "seven" lyrics just so that the singing can specifically come back in at "Or hide in the closet" while Isaac is processing difficult emotions related to the book he's reading (i.e., Ace: What Asexuality Reveals About Desire, Society, and the Meaning of Sex by Angela Chen).

Did I mention "Or hide in the closet" hits just as the camera focus finishes shifting away from Isaac?

This is fine

#This is not fine #Warning: Long tags ahead (2 topics)#TOPIC 1:#I'm glad Isaac feels safe enough to be reading this book and processing emotions around his friends #That's the positive spin on “he's quietly dealing with a lot while next to his friends and they're not noticing and he's not sharing" right #The contrast of this with the happy friend-bonding montage time feels purposeful and sad (esp. with lyrics about staying in the closet)#but on the bright side this is in the midst of happy friend-bonding montage time so we also see them having happy bonding times together #- showing the friendship is still strong even if right now Isaac isn't wholly known or fully fitting #Hopefully this is leading to Isaac telling his friends what he's going through in S3 and the friendships adapting to fit him better #TOPIC 2:#Also - don't think it's unintentional that where the camera focus shifts to is Nick with his arms around Charlie and then kissing his head #I think we're being purposefully distracted from Isaac with allo 'cuteness'#Because what the other characters often get swept up in - especially as they all couple up in S2 - is alloromantic/allosexual interactions #And that's frequently what the world prioritises or cares more about too #I think the show is intentionally calling everyone - from the characters to us watching them to the whole world - out #So that hopefully we (general) can all be more aware and do better #[In case you were wondering this N&C/Isaac scene is also right after we see short clips of Elle & Tao and Tara & Darcy cuddling -#which also seems very intentional: Isaac - sandwiched in between views of cuddling couples - alone in more ways than one]#CONCLUSION:#I think everything is working together to highlight the contrast between what N&C and Isaac are respectively experiencing in this moment #Did I mention this is not fine?#It is well done though #heartstopper mini moment #isaac henderson #aroace #aromantic asexual #lgbtqia+#queer #taylor swift #seven

I know we love the “you only get two” triangles, but idk that I’ve seen one that is, like, the grand theory of fandom, like, you know—

you only get two. do you see my vision?

#fandom #fanfic #like #i stay out of fandom discourse #but I still SEE it #and every big fandom I’ve ever been in….woof #amazing all you can eat buffet of fic #and some cuckoo bananas hot takes #whereas the fandoms I’m active in #tiny #very kind and low drama #and also the epitome of #I have to do everything myself around here #also I’m SURE someone has done exactly this #I’m positive this is not a new thought #but me and a friend are just texting about this thing right now and I had to do it for my own sanity 😂#lauren feels things

you know when you're going through a high stress situation that is prolonged and agonizing but you've put on a brave face and you think you've got this! 💪 and then a week into it you accidentally burn your quinoa and there's smoke and all of a sudden your skin is sloughing off and you feel like alice about to be swept away in a tide of her own tears? mmnnmm yeag.

#i cant fucking do this not at all actually im very scared and i have no idea what im gonna ddo for money and yeah i am. so scared #money isn't even scary if i can just find a job! but i need an apartment but i can't find an apartment unless i can pay for the rent #and i have to contact The Dude at some point but uh. hes mad. im scared.#augh delete later probably. im sitting on the stairs outside and smoking a cigarette which i really shouldn't do #did I tell you i was scared. i have these cruel nightmares of roaming the streets looking for nala and not finding her #and i wake up in a cold sweat in a panic not knowing where i am. everything is so unfamiliar !!!!#if things ever work out for me if i can find the money for deposit or get my investments back somehow i swear i will spend a month in compl #ete silence staring at the cieling just processing this #right now everything feels so GO GO GO and i am scared it might break me. i do not have the time for chronic ilness right now yk.#tummy ache. chewing on my cheek.#nothing to do than try to stay positive but man. this really fucking sucks and is really unfair #who knew being a people pleaser with 0 boundaries would come back to bite me in the ass.#/groan/

I feel really bad for having such an intense obsession with dan and phil even though i havent done anything online (or irl) that could actually impact them. like these people dont know me and all i think about is them. of course, a part of it is because its a hyperfixation but beyond that i do genuinely love them and that makes me feel like shit. why do i love these people? is that unhealthy? i mean, its in human nature, right? thats just what people do. of course, im aware that the "them" im referring to are the internet personalities that arent really them in their personal lives (which ill be honest i dont really care about unless they share it with us) but should i love them? the obsession hasnt caused any harm to anyone. in fact, it's saved me from truly hitting rock bottom. but should that be true? isnt it selfish and weird to put/have put my life in the hands of people who dont even know what my favourite colour is? but also i didnt have anything else at a time of complete depression so how is that weird? but also it just is, man. maybe??

#dan and phil #someone console me please #but without being mean to me because every time someones not completely/mostly positive i think “oh ok they hate me”#if anyone knows if theyve ever said that what im feeling is normal pls lmk #because i feel like a complete jerk #like i need to step back #im also not very good at hearing what people actually mean when they say things #cause autism #so every time theyve commented about parasocial relationships i know for a fact im not taking it 100% the right way #and now i am confused #phan #daniel howell #amazingphil #yapping

sometimes you just gotta lounge around the house in slutty positions and clothes. Yknow. For mental health reasons

#just rook’s brain #If anyone in my family comes into the room I will immediately change positions but right now I feel very powerful #Why yes I am very desirable and attractive thank you for asking /silly

hey everyone, i won’t be as active for a while. got home last night super late after being on the road for 20 some odd hours. dealing with some family things and as an older sister, my priority of taking care of my siblings comes first before anything else. being on here is amazing for me but i don’t think i’ll have much time for it. reminder to please treat those in your life who are battling addiction with patience and care. i lost my older brother (sweetest person i’ve ever known and he remained that way up until his last night) to suicide and alcoholism, trauma and ptsd, depression and his feelings of hopelessness. talk with the people you care about. another of my siblings is dealing with the same and i refuse to let it escalate to such a terrifying end twice in less than a fucking year. remind the people you care about that there are beautiful things to live for. show them kindness and love. there is all kinds of misinformation out there but know this, you can make a difference for someone. don’t let them suffer in silence.

#if you have me on snap then you saw the super gorgeous views and such on my way to idaho but what you did not see was me picking #up my little sister. propping her body up with pillows in a hotel room to make sure she didn’t aspirate on her own vomit in her sleep.#pouring out her water bottle of white claw and talking to her about drug use.#i never make her feel as though she has disappointed me or that she should feel ashamed. shame helps nothing. love helps everything.#i’m going to get her back into treatment soon- i just need her to know she has a home when she’s out. detoxing here first and being #positively reinforced for every single step of the process is so fucking important. it was terrifying to learn that if i had not gone to ge #her when i did that she probably would have died there in the next few weeks.#my fear of death for her is not what guides me though and there’s a huge difference between that and doing something out of love. being #there in dire moments is important yes- but being there through the mundanity of recovery is JUST as vital. it’s a process and it’s hard.#she’s moving in with me for awhile so i can help her through this sensitive time in her recovery.#she’s trying so hard and being recognized for that has literally been making her sob. knowing she has people who truly care for her is #everything. now that my stepdad is away from her like across the country i can actually finally help her. she’s starting to understand and #without me saying anything- she is starting to see what he’s done to her and our family. she needs love and support and stability. she need #reasons to live. sorry im kinda rambling a lot in these tags but i just… i can’t lose another one. the love i carry for my siblings is #unlike any other. i’ve treated them like my children since i was a child and those are my own issues but our mother is gone now too so it i #up to me.#losing my brother last september and my mom the year before that- grief has just been back to back.#in the hotel room i couldn’t sleep. she fell asleep so quickly and all i could do was watch her and think about all of the things i want to #do to make her feel like her life has value and worth enough to stay here and not go. my little sister is forever four years old in my mind #yes she’s an adult of 23 but she is a baby to me. she’s so young and she has so much ahead of her. she deserves a happy and fulfilled life.#our lives have been… very hard. 4 out of 5 of us are still standing and i plan on keeping it that way.#this is not the pain olympics or whatever but listen- if i put an adult in any of the situations we were in as children they would not #survive. we only did because there was no other choice. now there are escapes and we are old enough to try them all- every single one of us #has searched for some escape. it spirals and escalates and it doesn’t help but it is an escape. giving her love and affection and getting #her the help she needs and doing it the RIGHT way- it lessens the need for escape. there is nothing wrong with being an addict.#addiction ends one of two ways. life or death. unfortunately there is no in between. she’s going to feel everything- bad and good. i want #her to know there is so much good. that she is good. every move i make right now matters so i don’t think i’ll have time for tumblr or #much socializing.#just a heads up yk. thank you for your patience in advance <3

i genuinely cannot describe how much accepting im asexual has helped me feel more confident and comfortable in my preferences and needs and general identity

#but im gonna try anyway!#i never actively put myself in uncomfy situations in my current relationship #but something always felt a bit off #my old friends always kinda. projected sexuality onto me. in a weird and uncomfy way #especially seeing as we were like 13!#im so lucky that my gf is as patient and understanding as she is #it feels like a weight has been lifted off my shoulder since i accepted it and started telling some people #i feel more complete and i dont feel the need to overcompensate or 'correct' my thoughts so i think the 'right' way about intimacy #which. as a very sex positive person who doesnt dislike having sex. was a very weird experience #it also made for some funny conversations. like when i told my gf id never felt sexually attracted to anyone except her #she was so shocked it was very funny #but yeah this is awesome :]#i still feel a bit iffy sometimes because i feel like i should feel differently. but its much easier to shut those thoughts down now #asexual #aspec

i want all trans people to know that somewhere out there, right now, there are so so many people working on your genitals. just so many people want you to have a dick and balls. people have dedicated their entire lives to figuring out how to make your vagina happen. in this moment there there are literally are dozens of doctors dedicated working out how to make you a set of genitals that will work the way you want them to, whether that’s researching new procedures or performing groundbreaking operations or performing routine surgery or studying for their medical exams so that one day, in the future, they can provide you with a penis.

these people all want you to have the right set of genitalia and by god they’re going to make it happen

#beaming this into the mind of anyone who feels their transition is too far away #anyway #don’t mind me i’m just thinking about how pretty much every gender surgeon goes into the field because they believe in it #and how the very field exists because there were people so determined trans people should have different genitals that they decided #that they would make it happen #and then they did #we know so much about gender treatments and right now there’s a guy whos so close to his dream of complete genital transplants #and he’s doing that for YOU #trans #positivity #i guess #gender stuff

#im not dead quit asking #I'm just really really really not doing well #sorry if i scared anyone. that wasnt my intent #things got. let's say worse. for me irl. more complicated for sure #i hate to publicize my breakdown I really do. but maybe i... need this? in a weird way?#i haven't really been adjusting well to having a platform online. that's not anyone's fault but mine ofc #i feel that my 'fans' (if ive earned the right to call them that) dont and frankly cant ever care for me as a person #i dont know you and you dont know me. you dont know all of me at least. just what i make public. what i allow others to see #i had it kinda bullied into me that i need to keep my mouth shut abt my own issues. and ive spent a lot of this year trying to unlearn that #maybe publicizing this is a bad idea anyway #I just know ive been more honest abt my emotions and my personal life with my friends and my partner #and not everyone enjoys it but i know I'm not like. traumadumping so i feel somewhat assured that anyone who doesnt wanna hear abt my life-#-probably wasnt all that interested in forming a close relationship w me to begin with. even if theyre friendly at first #everyone else; the people who I know care about me; have shown me that through their actions #my point is being honest abt how youre doing w other ppl is a good idea. revolutionary i know lol #and i still don't know a lot of you personally but #parasocial or not i got some very genuine sounding messages while I was gone. and i. feel really bad that i worried those people #I guess theres my proof that people would care if i disappeared suddenly. people would notice pretty quick it seems #im never gonna kms btw. even if i didnt have the support i have im simply too stubborn to die lol. to put it lightly #and to those who thought this was abt fandom drama: it's not. those who shall not be named are genuinely the least of my problems these days #I'm on a journey of self actualization. or something. im trying to get my shit together. im trying to stop being clinically depressed lol #but god keeps throwing wrenches in my plans and. i beat myself up about it too much #but that's just life. they say you make a plan and god laughs #im. trying to be okay with just riding the wave. im impatient but if i keep trying to somehow speed up time im just gonna exhaust myself #which I think is where im at now. burnt out #and on top of all that i still feel this need to like. perform for you guys #if i dont keep making content everyone will forget i exist. if i dont make another video essay this year can i even call myself a youtuber #etc etc. its the spiral its impostor syndrome we've all been there #im trying to end this on a positive note but idk. i dont have all the answers yet #hoping i figure it out soon. i hope you dont forget me in the meantime

My five year old has his very first day of kindergarten tomorrow 🥺🥺🥺 I didn’t expect to be hit with such a huge wave of emotions but I’ve been a WRECK all day

#personal #he’s so excited #we’ve been talking about school for so long and he’s so excited that it’s finally here!#and a little nervous too he said but he keeps asking about the other kids and if he gets to have lots of friends now #he really liked his teacher when he met her and he’s excited to see her #the only thing that tripped him up a little was when I told him that me and his daddy are bringing him to the school but we can’t go with #that he has to just listen to his teacher and we’ll see him after school 🥺#I’m mostly worried that he’s not going to get enough food at school because he doesn’t eat very fast at home #he doesn’t focus well on meals #I’m hoping that positive peer pressure helps him with that #if he sees the other kids eating he will hopefully follow their lead #he’s going to be taking the bus home as well and I’m nervous about that for him too #even though it’s silly because his bus will pick him up in the morning and bring him directly to the school and then drop him off first #after school #he’ll be on it for maybe 20 minutes each day #I just worry too much #i worry about how issues he might have that I can’t help with like what if it’s too cold in just one room #but I don’t know that and send him in shorts?#or what if he gets teased for things I can’t anticipate right now? how can I best set him up for success with his peers?#I only know what he likes not what other five year olds like #I don’t want him to feel like the odd one out #but maybe that’s inevitable at some point #I can’t protect him from the world if im not there 😔#that’s the hardest thing about it #obviously this is supposed to happen and school will be so good for him #but he was a tiny little baby just yesterday #at least that’s how it feels #they say it goes by fast but damn

I just wanted to reach out to folks and say thanks for not scrutinizing me for interacting with a little more selfship content than usual lately. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, and I just hope I'm not being overbearing with that kind of content ?

#I'm going through a rough patch in my life and so it's bringing me a lot of comfort to be in that community space right now ^_^#tai talks #i know people probably dont mind but im just ?? idk i get worried people will get tired of me when i go through a content dry spell #and i have a lot of friends who kind of have a distaste for the s/ship community or are just very impartial to it #ive always been a s/ship safe space and i dont think that will ever change but im also trying to unlearn shame and have a little fun with it #its just been heavy on my mind.#especially whenever i want to rb a fun s/ship question with my own answers but choose not to because ... idk?#im afraid people will become annoyed or frustrated with my presence instead of positive things #i dont think that feeling will ever go away but idk. i love my friends who are s/ship blogs and i love seeing peoples content for that!#it brings me a lot of joy recently #anyways if you read all that .... thank you ^_^ <33
