I think as I have started writing It is a good idea for me to continue, not to bore you with endless conversation but to open up my heart to some of the deeper sides of me. the parts that have been left untapped and untouched. I know, on social media, who would have thought. It's funny because I remember how I used to use bebo, myspace and even habbo hotel as a teenager, along with of course msn chat. everyday I would get home from school, throw my bag down and jump on the computer to have a chat with the same people I had been at school with the entire day. I guess it was different because you can't really chat in school the same.

Anyway the point Im trying to get to, is the innonce of it all. I remember being around 13/14 years of age and all being fine, chatting with friends as per usual. Then all of a sudden I was introduced to a different kind of website, it wasnt something that I had seen before and wasn't even aware of it existance. My friend had introduced me to a new website, what I now know as being a porn website - yes I said it. Looking back now as a 33 year old person you wouldnt think it was such a big deal, but believe me it was. You see the world we live in we arent suppose to me exposed to these sorts of things, its unnatural, its oppresive and its extremely damaging to a child's / teenagers brain. The reason I am sharing this is to provide caution to other people who might have experienced something similar. I know that this is a heavy subject but its important to put light on the issue. As a teenage boy I was used to playing football, doing athletics and watching sports on television, all of which are moderatley tame in comparison to having an older female undress herself needlessly whilst performing sexual actions leading to an orgasm. but at the time I was hooked, my brain was infused with the noises of the women and the innerly body sensations of my teenage body at the time. I was addicted. Each day I would get home from school, pull down my pants, find my favourite video and empty myself of all my self-esteem and worth just to gain that satisfaction of a mini orgasm. As I grew older I learnt that if I got caught I would be ashamed so I learnt to hid, the quieten my movements and operate in silence. I know all of this is quite sickening but there is a reason I am sharing it. One is to clear my heart the other is to clear my head. You see I've carried these things (memories, beliefs) around with me for two long, and eventually you learn you have to let things go.

this is what im doing, im learning to but all of these broken pieces of me down, exposing them to the world and asking for forgiveness, is it pretty? No. I am Proud? not at all. but do I want to be free of this stuff? Yes Absoulutely.

UNBELIEVABLE THE FROG TOOK RESIDENCY

[spidermanifested]

the more i think about anne bonny blacksails the more distressed i become about The Misinterpretations because you sincerely have to ignore everything she ever says, to go "no but she has sex with jack so shes clearly bisexual and calling her a lesbian is bi erasure". as is claimed very confidently by the god damn tv tropes ymmv page

its just so. not hard to understand whats going on with her? she is a csa victim who feels like she owes a sexual relationship to the man who saved her from the abuse. over the course of the show she discovers that 1) she is not entirely comfortable with this sense of obligation, though she finds it hard to discard altogether, and 2) she experiences real attraction to max that is separate from the feeling of indebtedness. therefore after a long period of self-reflection she tells jack she cant have sex with him anymore, and then after that. They dont. and none of this requires any kind of leaps of inference she quite literally says it all out loud with her mouth on screen

she turns, makes direct eye contact with you, smiles,

Current fixation x old fixation

To me, they're sleep deprived college students who never catch a break between essays and world saving. Every night is an all-nighter. Pidge catches them in the dorm lobby in the mornings, slumped against each other, laptops open to the cursor blinking on blank Google docs. She brings them coffee. She secretly figured out their identities ages ago, but they still haven't figured out why they just so happen to begrudgingly stumble into the lobby to sit on the same couch at ungodly hours of the moring. Both are too stubborn to find a different room to study in. Hunk, bless him, makes sure they have a decent breakfast before they rush off to class each morning.

if helena asked helly to sacrifice her life for something helena wanted, everyone in the wider audience would be like fuck no helly don't do anything for her!!! and helly wouldn't do anything for her. and everyone would cheer. yet for some reason innie mark is expected to do EVERYTHING for outie mark.

innie mark didn't HAVE to get gemma out of there. helly had just told mark that jame saw "the light of kier" in her and that he doesn't love helena, heavily implying that jame wants helly to have the body and he has the power to make that happen. there is a path forward for both helly and innie mark. helly keeps her body and inherits lumon, and she in turn gives innie mark his body.

but they both know it's wrong because they've both suffered greatly at the hands of lumon and they aren't going to just let someone die. so mark sacrifices his chance at a life with helly to get gemma out, but stops short of walking out the door and killing himself, so he's the real asshole I guess?

despite the fact that outie mark would never in a million years sacrifice a single thing for innie mark. he wouldn't entertain the idea of giving up even a moment with gemma for innie mark to be with helly. he would stop reintegrating the second innie mark walked out that door. because he doesn't see innie mark as a real person, just a slave he created to offload his grief onto for two years before asking him to help him then die. outie mark has been just as big of a dehumanizing asshole to innie mark as helena is to helly, yet he gets a pass, because...?

it's bleak how most of the things people think will assuage and temper men are the things that embolden them. "prostitutes exist so men don't rape us" the human trafficking industry that is prostitution is an ever-growing industry that produces propaganda that enables men in society to rape MORE not less. by objectifying women and children, it puts all our heads on the chopping block. "he just needs to settle down and get married" most femicide, rape and domestic violence are committed by husbands/boyfriends. "if men just had daughters/sisters they'd see women as human" as a daughter and sister, i can confirm that we're extra caretakers of said men, and that our kindness is taken as proof that "good women" are subservient and domestic helpers.

if you want to de-radicalize men, you have to actually just stop tolerating misogyny in any form no matter what woman it's done against. stop trying to dialogue with men and start socioeconomically punishing them. people want to act like "separatism doesn't solve anything" when governments and companies only started paying attention when they saw birth and marriage rates drop. it is not women's job to save men from themselves and some feminists still don't get that. pandering to men always results in LESS rights for us. we have to become radically INTOLERANT.

Its funny that every time i thirst for your slasher boys i try to convince myself that they are too old for me. . .

but im 27.

they are exactly my age

ehehehhehe my broskimosapien are we twinsies??? I'm 27 too!! :3c I mean the AU takes place in 2005ish when they're round 30. Today they'd be around 50 (!) lol. so maybe that's the energy you're picking up on. Could also be that they own a BUSINESS and A HOUSE—things that feel unachievable for a 20-some in today's world 💀

2.5: saving the world

prev/next

[anticidic]

I've got two fun ideas picking at my brain after reading this part, specifically when Dazai says brains of three-dimensional humans cannot properly perceive the realm.

One: Dazai is completely an illusion and Atsushi is being fed this information through Sigma in his unconsciousness because Atsushi wouldn't be able to fully process the space without losing consciousness himself, so Sigma is acting as a catalyst to pass it on

Two: a version of Dazai somehow inserted himself into the space through a giga brain move way back in Meursault knowing Fyodor would target Sigma, and he entered Sigma's unconsciousness and is in the world along with Sigma — who may or may not be lost in the realm

We know Sigma was created, and while he's a living, breathing human, in a roundabout way he's a two-dimensional being created from a page. Or possibly even four-dimensional himself considering the Book's capabilities

Atsushi's still a "bookmark", and bookmarks "save" spots at certain places, but Sigma could also be the guide leading Atsushi back in time to that moment, offloading some of the information he processed. Fyodor also previously said that the tiger's claws can tear through dimensions, and it's how Atsushi will free himself from amenogozen after the information is passed on to him
