westerners usually react the same way when i talk about being transgender in malaysia w the assumption that even going to malaysia as a gay or trans person will get you immediately arrested and killed or something as though trans people don't live there every day and like. buy groceries and pay bills and walk around. gay people live their whole lives there. that isn't to say there isn't suffering but that people live and go to work and stuff no matter what. not even getting into the fact that any state's repression of lgbt people anywhere will not be targeted primarily at western tourists lmfao
#ones class positions are a determining factor in these cases. people with money in any country no matter how harsh the laws#are not treated the same way as people in poverty people who lack citizenship people who belong to minority and indigenous groups etc etc#accessing medical care as a trans person in a private hospital in malaysia is very different from doing so in a public hospital#having a foreign passport shields someone from a lot of things#so on and so forth

Sugar baby/trophy husband Bond and Q out for dinner in a fancy restaurant and the waiter tries to give Bond the check (probably because he's older and the waiter Assumed but also to be fair to the waiter, Bond probably also ordered and picked the wine pairings and etc).
Bond just smiles winsomely at him while Q reaches over with an amused half-smile and slaps down a black AmEx
#00q#why does Q have a black amex an ostensibly useless card except for the status symbol? no clue I just need it for the Vibes here#also I went to the wiki page for the black amex to like. double check entry requirements and whatever and saw that#apparently in Quantum of Solace Bond tries to use a black AmEx which gets declined cuz MI6 revoked his passports and cards etc?#and then it became funnier to me if Q has a functioning one lol#(maybe it's for the occasional MI6 related business maybe he hacked onto the list ages ago on a dare and never closed it lmao)

even if he walks free and is forced to live in that country under the current administration.
If he walks, he should utilise his Italian citizenship and get tf out.
will he be allowed to get out tho?? he's an american citizen too and they can hold him back on "home soil" however they want to
#i'm not american so i can't tell what happens for people involved in cases like this#but like if those people have restrictions on travelling etc and knowing he has had forgery charges on him#would he have restrictions or would his italian passport pull him out of the country he also has a passport of#asks

Once I deep-clean this apartment I gotta think about decor and my ultimate inspiration remains Felicja Goldberg z domu Barbanel, who furnished a memorable gallery wall with a print of Munch's Vampyr, a cameo of a renowned 18th-century Italian courtesan, and a portrait of Karl Marx
#Have posted about this before but I think of it often#This and Charles Busch's apartment#Gay guy rococo and fin-de-siecle Eastern European bourgeois socialist#Not exactly the most important thing like I need to renew my passport etc. But if I'm going to stick it out here#I want to make it hospitable you know

My passport expires in August 2026 and there's not a single stamp in there, I need to kms
#pleaseeeee just one vacation 😭#i got it before starting college because they bragged about great class trips but in the end corona dragged them out until 2022#when vaxxing requirements were different everywhere and it was just fucking brussels and luxemburg#expensive and while (or especially because) pretty places not somewhere i would have gone with THOSE people to embarrass me#good instinct because apparently it was a mess and some students nearly got arrested etc#this confirms my point that i might just go on short vacations whenever i want next year#feeling like lucy in while you were sleeping rn with her wanting florence in her passport sooooo bad and taking it everywhere just in case#mel talks

Recent life photos
#photo diary#image 1 & 2 - of course these are just cloud images. But a cool pattern of them :0#3 - another word count of game writing... aargh... Still debating about like allowing other people into the game discord or how early#in the process one should do that.. but social things are just so difficult for me lol.. I shall always suffer for my lack of networking an#self promotion skills. 4 - I was forced to get a new phone a few months ago because my beloved phone of like 10 years finally#broke too much. and I always like to go through the emojis and make a little memo with all my favorites. yaay little pictures of things.#5 - I FINALLY finished all the dictionary entries for the game (which has a little dictionary feature in the player's journal to note#any specific terms and keep track of them (like what 'jhevona' or 'avirre'thel' means. or to remember that the world is called Nanyevimi#and the country they're in is Asen. etc. etc.)). There are 75 defined terms so far and it took me a while to do so out of curiosity I put#all the text into a wordcounter thing and lol.. 8000 words isnt that much I guess but the 30 minute reading time is funny to me. 30 minutes#for my little tiny dictionary panel in my quaint little casual visual novel which is not even lore heavy at all. hee hee (though that's mor#like a minute here and there since obv people are not unlocking every term all at once. you complete the dictionary as you talk to people#and hear them mention new concepts over time.).. ANYWAY..#6 - a very soft and beautiful stuffed animal that I did not buy but wanted to at least document their charm.#7 - stimky boye waiting in front of his favorite straw meowring screaming for someone to play with him (he likes to chase the#straw around). 8 - matcha bubble tea my beloved. 9 & 10 & 11 - some cool flowers I saw. also featuring one of my favorites (columbines!)#Anyhow.. as mentioned in the other photo diary post.. I have just been packing and writing mostly.. The evil summer is coming of course#which me and my health issues always dread. Good news though is I finally got my passport in the mail! >:3 huzzah. Now I just need to find#some fellow aromantic asexual living outside the US willing to take one for the team and fake a marriage with me so I can get the#hell out of the country UwU (<joking) (...mostly... as in - definitely NOT my main goal. but if a viable opportunity presented itself I#would of course give it consideration lol). I know that's already highly regulated but I wonder if it's something that will become even mor#locked down as people hunt for any opportunity to flee. People are out here searching for any loophole. Frantically researching their#entire family tree seeing if there's any chance for a citizenship by descent in whatever place will take them. etc. etc. lol#So I wonder if such marriages are a thing that will come up more often. hmm.. ANYWAY..#I have almost all of my stuff packed even though I don't move until another 1-2 months. But that's the point is to have it all sorted early#in the last remaining scraps of ''cooler'' weather so that then I can just relax up until then. I'm going to try doing another scrapbook#/sketchbook this summer as a Mood Boosting effort. Just to find little things to help with the situational political existential dread and#climate woes. So on days it's too hot to function I can just glue little things to pages and doodle lol.. hopefully.. slowly getting things#off my to do list.. I reaaaaaally want to get back to playing games as it's so fun and realxing to me but..rghgh.. 500 other things..

really need to legally change my name at some point but i just really really hate paperwork and struggle to get started on it especially if it has multiple steps
#it's been literal years and like i send like 2 email enquiries but didn’t really get the answer i need and then i gave up lol#it's just bc it doesn't affect my day to day life but also once i change my name i need a new passport asap but i can probably only change#my name by being physically in the Netherlands and then I'd have to wait for the passport to get back home to the UK... and like i only hav#20 holidays a year and am not allowed to work from home really or maybe 2 days a week now so like#also i have to use 3 of the holidays for the time the company closes around Christmas#so yeah ig next year i could take all of my holidays to be in the Netherlands for almost 4 weeks and hope thatll be enoug#but that's all my holidays and i can't take unpaid holidays#maybe another way is possible but i can't find anything bc trans people living abroad needing to change their names is kinda niche ig#also once i change my name i have to change my name on like my bank card and everywhere else and idk how to do that etc bc i won't be a#british person doing it so it will be different#honestly never changing my name is just so tempting#but you know it would be good to be able to be stealth#*sent sorry#i always make this mistake even though i know how to do it correctly

wild to me that it takes hours for people in the usa to vote. it's never taken me more than 10 minutes and that's including the inevitable chit chat with the people there because they're either my parents' neighbours or the parents of people i went to school with.
#literally have your voting card and some kind of id ready#if you don't have your voting car then you just have to look up what desk you're supposed to go to usually it's split alphabetically so#for albonium it would be desk 1#get there give id (either my id my passport my social security card my driving license or a hunting permit (💀))))))))#pick up the little papers and an envelop#get in the booth#put the little paper in the envelop#that's if you haven't done it at home already#get out#put it in the box#the person there says “ HAS VOTED”#you sign next to your name#take your id#and fuck off#before your cousin's neighbours' grandma asks how your aunt is doing and if you've heard about the bakery being closed because the baker's#wife cheated on him and now he's got to take care of the kids and aetstdfhgfsgjgthj#you get what i mean#10 minutes tops#even in big cities#also it's always by paper like this if you want you can vote for someone else but you have to file papers at the police station#people empty the boxes and count them all together#if you want you're allowed to stay and watch as they count#or you can ask beforehand to participate in the counting#kids are automatically signed up on the voting lists when they turn 18 if they've done their mandatory 'defense and citizenship" day#ok this one is kind of propaganda-y for the army the cops etc but at the same time it allows to test the entire population to see if they'r#illeterate (there's grammar spelling etc tests)#do some driving rules lessons#cpr training#reminder about blood donations etc#which imo is important

anxiety brain wasn't done with contingency plans huh. at least it's found a ~£100 hotel room if i missed the last train home which is... probably my best option. dunno. the alternative is like a £170 taxi ride which, on the plus side, WOULD get me home and if i've missed the last train then it's late enough that i probably want to do that, plus it's barely any more expensive once you add the £40 train ticket the next day on top of the £100 hotel room. but would also suck on like, every other level. so let's just hope that doesn't happen
#a flight that gets in at 9.30 shouldn't be so risky on this front#but deboarding and baggage reclaim always takes SO LONG#i think if i'm not on the tube by 11.15 latest then i'm missing the last train (00.32) and that's tight enough#and last year i seem to remember it was Rather Close#but some of that was issues with disability assistance#maybe i would not ask for assistance with baggage this time#as long as they get me through passport control etc#this is NEXT MONTH by the way i'm just. stressing. again.#i wish deboarding and baggage wasn't so slow. i have the same stress on the way out with my onward journey#and like. again. i have about 90 mins. that should be nothing to worry about#BUT!! airports are hell!!!#god i hate flying#i wish i could drive so that the ferry was a reasonable option#pearsanta

I think vacation agencies should also help you bully your employer into giving you reasonable vacation time
#not to be american but i hate it here#one week; MAYBE a week and a half per year if you take it all together (and are allowed to do so) is not sufficient!#i don't generally consider myself a restless person (the blog title is a song lyric not a modus operandi)#but boy i sure wish i had more flexibility. in everything‚ really#give me agency or give me death. etc. i can theoretically go so many places with a u.s. passport And Yet.#even just seeing other parts of the us would be pretty neat but that's hard to do if i only ever have 2-3 days at my disposal#(will i ever stop making the same complaint about travel on here? no.)

#i've had many people ask me in the DMs what could be done to help me out given the orange menace is coming back into power#the best things for me right now (I can't speak to others) is this: 1. Keep supporting my creative endeavors#no matter how little I might post or interact. Please hype me up. I need community. I need spirit to survive.#2. Help me find resources that will help myself and others. Food banks. Community meets. Passports. Finances. Mental health etc.#these are important and I don't want others feeling like sitting ducks. Even though I'm scared I want to be a solution to the problem.#I am going to be a helper in this mess cause that's who I am and I need ammo in this capacity#3. Donate so I can up my ration storage. I've been collecting food water and nonperishables and I'm trying to stock up on medication#and other basic necessities. I'm collecting as if I'm preparing to be homeless again and if I am over capacity I'm giving rations to others#I've had to make peace with the fact I can't run away. I can't move to another country as I'm broke and poor like the rest of my loved ones#4. If you have friends who are disabled or a minority or lgbtq etc. do what you can to protect them and show them that you love them#and build community#5. Share my work and that of others. Who knows if we're gonna have sites like AO3 in the future or even access to tumblr.#this is all I can think of at the moment and again I can't speak for others this is what comes to mind for myself#And I admit I'm coming from a place of the worst case scenarios#because in my mind if I imagine I'm dead or homeless etc. and work my way backward to the next worst thing before that it unravels my fear#and it gives me back my power in the situation by sitting with those fears and giving them time to speak#because in my mind if I'm already dead if I'm already homeless or at war etc. etc. then its already happened and what else is there to fear#if I've been through everything already in mind?#I'm hoping that the worst case scenarios don't transpire but I can't ignore the fact many of them could and probably will happen#in some capacity but I can control the actions I take through prep and facing these fears one by one#and most importantly sticking to routine by making sure im healthy to help people#anyway this is why ive been quiet for a while besides for spending time with friends and loved ones recently to get over what happened#im going to keep going to my classes keep helping people through my jobs try to be creative when I have spoons and little by little#make sure I have enough of what I need to get through the storm and outlive the bastards in power#I'm not sure what sort of pink variant to assign this to but its along the magenta spectrum#love you guys#we'll get through this
