#literally unimportant so ignore it

[simplepotatofarmer]

just venting about personal stuff <3 <3

i want to cry. i asked for very simple things from the grocery store to make dinner tonight because our neighbor very kindly gave us a bag of bone-in lamb chunks and i made my roux and then went to get the things i asked for and nothing. and like, it's my fault that i didn't check first i guess but i just assumed my partner would get what i needed. and this stupid pot their parents bought me is still a learning curve because it's a very good pot but it heats up so fast and i'm not used to that. i'm used to my old pot i had for literally 15 years. so now the roux is ruined, the lamb is ruined, i don't even have the stuff i need to maybe salvage it, i can't go to the store because our car is wrecked after the accident and i don't even know if i'd have the money to buy the stuff i need in the first place.

just went through all my ao3 fics and edited all the tags because i feel like i overtag a lot and it always bothered me. tbf the most overtagging happens in my relationship/character tags but i find it super difficult to judge who/which relationship is important. like friendships are So Important in my fics i dont feel like i cant tag less there? especially my longer fics. amtc james&sirius and black brothers are in my mind at least if not more important than literally amtc jegulus. i know its a jegulus fic but also jegulus is just the catalyst for other relationship dynamics. how do you tag that stuff

I don’t think the weird anxiety/panic will ever leave my tumblr experience🧍‍♀️

i’m all for genderfuckery in fandom. want to cis-swap a cis man into a cis woman? go for it. want to trans that character’s gender? love it. but i HATE the fics where a character—usually a cis male character—is ~magically transformed~ into a cis woman’s body (and they’re FULLY AWARE that they were transformed, it’s literally part of the plot), and then having them suddenly identify as women. it’s actually so infuriating.

like it’s 100% the trans person in me reacting to this, but it’s literally maddening. if you were a cis man and suddenly had a cis woman’s body—you would almost certainly experience gender dysphoria, esp when the change proves itself permanent and they’re suddenly going through the world being misgendered 24/7. your BODY does not dictate your GENDER IDENTITY. and these writers never do anything interesting, like have the character slowly realize they were actually a trans woman all along, or have them grapple with suddenly having to move through the world as a trans man and the implications of being a trans man despite growing up a cis boy, or hell, have them realize they never identified as any gender at all! like, if you want to write a cis swap fic, just write a cis swap fic. have them be cis women from the get go. this ~magical transformation where because i no longer have a dick i ID as a woman~ bullshit is stupid, bad, and gross.

this is beronica if you took away everything that makes them interesting and who they are which actually makes their relationship more special because uhhhhhhhhhh ????

( it’s incredibly telling when someone only cares about you if you constantly churn out replies or are a thread-writing machine, because as soon as you complain about a lack of engagement ooc or ic, they softblock. and the real kicker is that they’ll state they’ll unfollow if you also complain about having more than 80 drafts as well, which i… don’t do. if anything, i honestly complain more about lacking drafts, and if you have been following me for a while now, you know i don’t post excessive ooc unless you count headcanon posts and things still related to my muse.

but at this point, i’m very tired, because i simply just can’t win with people in the rpc… )

[playingonedchess]

when characters do something that shows theyre close thats perfectly normal in any sort od relationship but people on tumblr are invariably like thats so married or whatever like

someone on a crochet fb group I'm in posted a photo of a (machine made) dress with a granny square bodice and chevron type pattern skirt and asked for help for a pattern to recreate it and I was immediately like omg I have to make this and the point of this post is last night I fr had a dream where I was telling this to mum. Like I was just explaining the post and the dress and how it works and what I was going to do to make it. I never have conversations about such mundane things anymore irl my mum was the only person I did that with and I miss it I think it's why I ramble so so much whenever given the slightest opportunity

God, if I’m gonna get mentioned in a YouTube compilation let it be one of my tame post and not the 3am wild ones.

(yes im elaborating on a silly doodle i did days ago, yes this is the most unnecessary post ever, move along)

to clarify: im looking at this through the lens of greta gerwig’s little women because in spite of having seen the 1994 version my fair share of times i could tell you almost nothing about it for some reason

i don’t think this is something he’d openly admit because of her more childish scenes. she can be loud and cruel and she burns jo’s writing and so it’s easy to dislike watching her

but she also steps up. “learns her place”. ignores what she feels because she believes she has to become something. although not thoroughly explored in the movie, i gotta imagine how absolutely lonely she must feel.

see where im going with this? i think that would really resonate with him and so her character would grow on him. he’s jealous that she can express her “worst” emotions. he’s annoyed with her pettiness because it’s unreasonable to him. these are the same things he could never allow himself to do or think or feel because he has to be something.

so seeing her change hits. because he did that too. don’t get me wrong im not saying they’re the same character or anything lol but in her he sees the heart of the child he once was and the desperate, lonely person he became.

oh also dedede likes beth because he cries every time a parent or child dies in a movie

btw if someone is listening to music it’s kind of shitty if you just go “this is a terrible song”. if you don’t like it, ask them to turn it off, or skip it, or leave the room. tell them you strongly dislike it. don’t just tell them it’s awful and expect them to fix your problem.

i feel like some people, even some kind of feminists, imagine misogyny as something almost hypothetical or purely emotional. like a system that just makes women sad or something.

misogyny is dangerous. misogyny kills women. medical misogyny, femicide, rape, sexual assault, FGM, domestic violence, prostitution, etc are so often overlooked in favour of conversations about shaving & makeup (which are obviously still very real misogynistic issues) and i feel like this is why misogyny is often seen as a social issue less important or less dangerous than others.

copying and pasting my reblog:

if anyone has misunderstood, my post wasn’t trying to say “we as feminists need to talk about male violence more instead of the beauty industry” or “people don’t take misogyny seriously because we talk about makeup&shaving” or even “the beauty industry is less of a feminist issue than male violence” -but rather that our oppressors deliberately try to make misogyny seem a tame and unimportant version of social injustice so that people can ignore female suffering more than other suffering.

this is not to say that the beauty industry is tame or unimportant. the beauty industry (makeup, shaving, body modification, plastic surgery, etc) is a form of male violence and not a triviality. we do need to have conversations about the beauty industry because it is a significant aspect of misogyny which affects literally billions of women daily. the only people who this suffering is unimportant to are the oppressors which enforce it, men.

feminism does have conversations about male violence and have done so for centuries. men & the commodified mainstream version of ‘feminism’ do not and have not had these conversations. it is the work of the patriarchy and of female oppression which will have people believe that male violence is a nearly fictional extreme of misogyny, which is why men’s conversations of feminism often ignore these issues.
