if you shame or berate people for pirating things. please consider that being able to buy/watch/read/listen to/play things legitimately is a privilege

not even necessarily a "having the money" privilege but sometimes a "living in the right place" privilege or even a "speaking the language said thing happened to be released in" privilege

#getting into arcade rhythm games and fkmt's manga has convinced me piracy is not only okay but morally correct #i would LOVE to play chunithm or read akagi in the legitimate creator-approved way. unfortunately i live in the US and can't read Japanese #thinking abt that old woman yuri mangaka lamenting that english-speaking readers wouldn't be able to read her manga legitimately #to be clear she was 100% not the asshole she was nice abt it #just tragic all around #not to mention fan translators do awesome work for free but you usually don't get fan translations without what is technically reposting #i collect doujin and like so many american doujin collectors i discovered doujin through pirate sites #and i honestly have mixed feelings about it bc it's all art that was reposted without permission #but i've been able to read fanworks i otherwise just couldn't and i've found artists whose work is incredible #and whose books i would love to buy! but it's cost-prohibitive on both our ends #for an artist to get more than an extremely limited run of books printed and for me to pay for international shipping #a book that sells for under five dollars at a convention can be upwards of 20 dollars to buy and have shipped internationally #in a perfect world artists don't die without money and everyone is more normal about piracy

there are rly ppl that sincerely defend the treatment of katara's character post-atla like i'm sorry,,,but you will never catch me giving br/yke that much credit and benefit of the doubt lmao

#like wtv you ship idc #that girl was done so damn dirty its unreal #they call her a master in the first five mins of tlok!! yea and?? then wtf does she do??#the whole greatest healer thing is legit only ever used to emphasis how bad korra's injuries are because katara cant heal them #she doesnt get to defend her family like zuko and toph do shes not a jinora's airbending ceremony #she wasnt a significant part of the legit BLOODBENDING SUBPLOT ?!?!?#and yea she doesnt have a statue ill always be so damn mad abt it #she deserved so so much better #holly talks bs #not tagging this im just ranting after seeing shit on twitter lmao #ppl also just make up fanon and say its canon when it legit isnt #like no katara wasnt actually established as a significant influence in the formation of the united republic #she SHOULD have been #aang has his own personal island and statue of liberty i think they couldve spared some dollars putting katara in some flashbacks lmao

ah yes. the Adult Attic trifecta: comics, queers, and clearance

last year was nice, they had a full pride display and some really decent stuff. guess enough people complained (I'm not surprised, with how the area is) but it's now limited to the Adult Supervision Only Attic and was like. a pair of socks and a novelty "gender neutral soap" gag gift. I came earlier in the month too, it's not that everything else was sold out. 🫤

ah well, this is the place that tries to sell you, for example, a dirty funko horsea with a fucked up box for thirty bucks *on clearance* because We Sell At Market Value™ (I checked. theyre new on ebay for ten usd shipped lmao.)

#sucks but hey I walked out work a pound of real saltwater taffy for like five bucks so ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯#legitimately the build you own taffy bar is the only thing remotely reasonably priced #by which I mean without coupon buying from the company with a 15 dollar shipping charge is about equal to buying that amount in-store #they have lots of foreign snacks and candies though. sent a gift basket to my uncle who was missing his childhood snacks the other week

how angry am i allowed to get as an autistic person about stuff related to my SpIn

bcuz I ordered JoJo plushies off ebay, put my ACTUAL name in the shipping info so my family would know the box was mine and ebay for some reason defaulted to the name on my *account*, which is *not* my irl name and since i was with my mom over the weekend, when the package *did* come in, my family sent it back and now my dad blames me for not telling them i got an order online so he could "watch for it"

#i spent 61 fucking dollars on five plushies #and shocker #i didnt think id have to tell someone to watch for a package when our house is literally NEVER empty #someone is ALWAYS at home #also the last time i ordered a package from ebay the delivery person just dropped the order off #but ig this time my grandpa actual met with the delivery person #so he was able to decline the order #also we live in an area where package stealing would be hard as fuck #because our street has no sidewalks #and is close to like #ig what youd call an express way #and its super fucking busy #AND the order said it would come in the 14th which is a day I would have been back from my moms #but no it actually came in the 12th #so now i have to wait for the seller to message me back and hope theyre willing to send it again #and i cant really get mad at my family for it because the fault lies on ebay for giving the seller the incorrect shipping information #because i KNOW i changed it #blah #talking in tags #rant #rambling #rambling in tags

i wish barnes & noble shipped to the uk because i need those hardcover volumes of emma so so badly.

#where do i buy them #i mean i know ebay is an option but the shipping from the states puts me off #does thriftbooks ship to the uk??#because the prices look reasonable but the currency (as far as i can tell) looks to be in dollars #hopefully i can get all five volumes #emma: a victorian romance #eikoku koi monogatari emma #my post #thoughts #fandom things

there should be a charitable foundation dedicated to the very good cause of me purchasing stuff that i want

#once again gazing longingly at snowdrops with $30 shipping from the uk #they're prettyyyy and they dont have those varieties here #also just the snowdrops themselves without the shipping is crazy expensive sometimes #like $30+ for one bulb lol #i went njts and spent like a hundred dollars on like four so thats it for the year #but im slowly building a collection #this seems insane and frivolous i know but im trying to get the special blooming time ones #to try to get flowers during the most bleak no snow no flowers times of year lol #and also christmas :)#anyway i made a post like this around this time last year abt orchard trees and i got five for 10 bucks each #which is crazy cheap #they were only little but they'll grow and they were grafted already and everything #anywayyyy #sorry for all the posting im spinning with relief abt my prognosis lol #this has been a shitpost
