There is a very exquisite agony in playing a game you love so so so so so much, and realizing that one of the other players is trying to play a totally different game than you.
#hush frenchy#we went to the coffin shop today in vallaki#and our rogue triggered combat SIMPLY because he didn't want to leave the house without looting every single room#to clarify: WE HAD ACHIEVED OUR OBJECTIVE#we literally just needed to get out#but the rogue's player was like cmoooon its no fun to leave without looting everything we can get our hands on#now everything we're doing has gone to absolute shit#and to clarify: its going to be very interesting!!#and I feel like I would've been just fine with the result#IF it had been for any other reason besides that this one player seems to think that we're in a video game#like if there had been some kind of character motivation? or genuine concern that we were missing a piece of something we were looking for?#totally fine!! love that in fact!!#but just stealing shit because 'you're the rogue' feels... idk.#it just feels like it's a totally different game than the rest of us are playing#and now we ALL have to deal with the consequences#i just. urgh. i do not know what to do#i am gonna talk to the dm and see if she noticed the same thing as me#and try to brainstorm we the players can do to impart a sense of balance for people with different play styles#but i just feel like despite repeated efforts by the dm to be like hey this is a game for exploration and character engagement#the player is just ignoring that and doing Whatever He Feels Like#ANYWAY SORRY RANT OVER#I'm just really in love with this game and having one really thorny part is just HNG#positive note: the wizard whipped out alter self and thought he was the coolest guy in the whole world#despite repeatedly missing in combat#it was very cute and i wish Wyn wasn't absolutely certain that she was about to die#because she would absolutely stroke his ego about it simply to see him preen#the fighter was also very sweet and keeps working so hard to protect wyn#and since I'm a fighter in my other game i know where to put myself to make it easier for him so there's a lot of synergy#IT'S JUST VERY CUTE AND NICE AND GOOD. I LOVE THEM BOTH A LOT

#had an interesting conversation with my sister the other day. odd i guess bc my sister is pretty smart#on paper shes smarter than me. or at least less dyslexic than me#but she didnt seem to kno what cancer is. i mean like how it works. i mean. cancer is a mistake. a confluence of unfortunate accidents#leading to unrestrained cellular growth. when it metastasizes. when it moves to other parts of the body. those same cells continue growing#if u have smooth muscle cancer and it moves to your kidney. you body is trying to grow more smooth muscle on your kidney#at least as i understand it. and she asked why it wants to kill you. it doesnt want anything. it just is. its not a thing of malicious#intent. its neutral. it grows. it takes up resources. it takes up space. and it grows and grows until the organ it grows on stops#functioning properly. like a parasite she said. but no. not like a parasite. it grows like an empty space. a mass of flesh. a constant#obstructive pressure. it grows like only a tumor can. i dunno. it didnt seem to connect with her that this thing didnt want to kill our mom#but it did anyway. and she felt weird about how long she lived after they took her off any support. but thats how cancer kills#it stops an organ from functioning and most of those r important so it only takes one. so her heart kept beating for 12 more hrs bc it was#meant to beat for 40 more years. but not much it could do without working kidneys and without working blood#but that's life. that's death. that's nature. its all nutral even if it feels horrible to the individual.#i dunno. i thought it was interesting. shes 25 and her mother had cancer for 10 years so id think shed kno more#we're at a weird phase now bc its been a week since she died and everything feels normal. we'll see what happens at the wake this week#its been interesting for sure bc she was sick for 10 years but my parents didnt prepare at all for her to die#so my dad is scrambling to put together the pieces shr left behind to make sure that all the bills r paid and whatnot. he had to guess her#computer password. she didnt tell us what she wanted us to have. she didnt tell us the importance of her jewelry and who it belonged to#before her. i dunno. we're seeing the outline of my mothers Pathology in what she left behind. both in the physical objects and in the#feelings she imparted. i dunno. its been weird#unrelated

i love the saccharine music that plays as louis and armand are presenting a united front against daniel; the music is almost bending to their desire for what they portray to be what daniel believes

I'm making a spreadsheet of how the mp100 characters refer to each other and the realization I'm coming to is that the kageyama parents must have really ingrained etiquette into their sons bc these two are really big on referring to people politely

If you find a minor in fandom space and they’re writing smut and your reaction is to make a callout post and harass them into deleting their blog, you have bullied a minor. I don’t care about your reasoning, you’ve bullied a minor. And to that, I ask: What good do you think you’re doing?
Edit: I feel like it's been a bit since I made this so I thought I should add a little context:
I made this post after seeing a adult (one who had only been an adult for a year or so) bully a teenager off the platform for writing smut. From what I could see, the teen had never interacted with them before and the adult decided to call them out apropos of nothing and the entire situation was really hostile and toxic. The adult tried to excuse their harassment as "trying to protect" the teen, even though they had started the interaction by making a post with their user name and telling people to bother them. It was fucked up. Like the motivation and the follow through were almost polar opposites; you can say you're trying to protect someone, but if you do that by hurting them, you're not really protecting them. (And at that point, the person they need to be protected from: is YOU.)
Also, as far as I could find - legally - a minor can read and write smut fic, but an adult should never contact them over it (meaning: flirtatious or sexual messages, invitations to talk privately about sexual topics, invitations to meet, etc). That's when it moves into illegality. If you see a minor in the wild (fandom space) and don't talk to them about things like that, or straight up block them and ignore them if they're engaging with smut and it makes you uncomfortable, you'll be okay.
Harassing them (no matter how good you think your intentions are) is not okay.

I’m at my parent’s house, and I put on the Talking Heads “Fear of Music” while I was setting up/troubleshooting computers for my dad. He promptly curled up and fell asleep. The speakers here are super loud, I have no clue how he does it

I wrote a thing. First one in this fandom. It wasn't my fault; the plot bunny (scene bunny? it's less a plot than a character study) kept pulling my hair and wouldn't let me sleep.
It does kind of amuse me that the first creative thing I do after dealing with the whole fanfiction piracy saga is write another story to put on AO3, but that probably has more to do with the fact that I've been too busy to create anything lately and eventually that energy has to come out somewhere.

i saw someone say something along the lines of “back when cleopatra was first learning her first words x language had already been spoken for half a millenium” which, like, okay but cleopatra is a late comer in the history of the antiquity? like she was born in 69 bc, she’s literally only six years older than augustus who lived into the era of ad, something having been a common language for “half a millenium” by the time cleopatra was learning to talk would date it to, like 500 bc. one of the oldest languages we know of was attested to by 3000 bc. like, i get what you’re saying but this comparison isn’t the flex you think it is

I'm living with my parents for the moment, and I'd like to vent real quick about the person I call "The Rancid Neighbor:"
The Rancid Neighbor
This man is building a new fence. Paying for it all himself. Nice, right? Wrong.
It has been over a year, and he tore down part of the fence, and hasn't put it back. He's doing all the work himself sporadically, but refuses to give us dates for the work. I asked, he plainly refuses.
He's rude to women. This has annoyed me the most. He finally decided to tear down the rest of the fence (without finishing what he already tore down) and left a note, asking us to put up a temporary fence while he places it. My mom and I went to the property line to talk to him, and he wouldn't look her in the eyes. I live here. Temporarily. She OWNS the house. And yet he spoke to me, and never her. This has been consistent in every interaction. I also did the math, and it's gonna cost us roughly the same amount to put up the temporary fence as it would for him to buy the missing materials.
I offered to help, even get some friends together to get it done faster. He refused to give me dates, so that's a no go. I can't just corral five friends on a Tuesday afternoon. I can get a few volunteers with a few weeks advance. I just want this done with, and he's anything but helpful.
He's Republican, which isn't patently bad, but he's the type of Republican that's casually homophobic. We've heard him use the word faggot as an insult a few times. I've had to stop myself casually talking about my partner in front of him, because I don't want to deal with him knowing I'm a faggot. He seems to like me better than the rest of my family, and I might as well take as much advantage of that as I can.
He self martyrs constantly. "I work more hours than both of you combined" is a favorite phrase of his. Which is only true because I'm unemployed at the moment, but he doesn't know that. My family and I have been repeating the phrase jokingly to each other, but increasing the number of hours in a childish joke show of one upsmanship. "Um actually, I work 25 hours a day, which is more than you!"
We looked up the property online to check for discrepancies, because "don't worry about the fence, don't look into it, I'll pay for all of it" was fishy. Turns out, there is a discrepancy on his side of the yard, and not other neighbors according to the survey on record vs. satellite images. Could be nothing, but it's worth investigating, we thought, so we told him we're looking at a land surveyor. (There's evidence of discrepancies on other parts of the property too, but when my dad told him, this whole thing came to a head)
It All Comes To A Head
My dad told him we're looking into hiring a land surveyor. He left, and the Rancid Neighbor came back with his wife and confronted me while I was working on my car.
*to be fair, I don't know exactly what my dad said to him. He's got a head injury and sometimes the things he says comes across more confrontational than he means.*
His wife, in tears, said "We don't like being bullied!" Followed by "We don't like confrontation!" While confronting me.
I don't remember exactly what the two of them said, but they began steamrolling me as much as possible. I tried being polite and defusing the situation, but clearly that wouldn't work, so I raised my voice and said "Frankly, you've been rude to my mom, and I'm in the middle of something. I don't know why you're talking to me and not the owners of the house. My mom and dad."
He said "I'd be happy to, but he walked away. I'm sorry if your mom *thinks* I've been rude. I'm a nice guy!" His wife said "We don't like being bullied."
You see, it is rare that actually nice people reiterate just how nice they are. He said this maybe ten times while talking. His speaking was filled with empty apologies. What we were asking for was clear communication, and he offered the same cyclical steamrolling, and a handshake.
Voices were raised, no one was happy, but I knew this would happen. I felt it in my gut. There were only so many conversations I could get stuck in with him without being frank. And unfortunately, for someone who's personality is so entrenched in toxic masculinity as him, being frank is being rude. It was going to be me, my dad, or my mom. One of us would get annoyed enough to say the truth, that his obsession with controlling the situation whilst simultaneously being a very poor communicator makes for rude interactions. But I don't think anything I said really got through. We're back where we started, which isn't saying much, but it's not outright anger.

I really have gotten sick of gentiles making a seemingly endless of array of posts going no guys, the Holocaust isn't about [justification for Zionism], the Holocaust is about [justification for anti-Zionism]. How long until you realize that it is not 'about' anything, but rather a real thing that happened and that our community had both positive and negative responses to?

Another note about The Speaker and his immortality:
It's common knowledge. He'll even directly tell you. But he won't say how. The most anyone's been able to get out of him is that it wasn't entirely intentional- but since he's still around he tries to make the most of it.
But life on Venus is very difficult. So it's a bit of a different matter when grieving parents demand he bring back their child that was killed in a storm. Or when someone just coming into adulthood contracts an illness that will slowly but surely kill them- growing frightened and angry so they ask him what it would take for them to be like him.
And every time he refuses.
For every person that sees him as an eccentric but loving great-uncle, for everyone that sees him as a figurehead, there are just as many that think he is a dangerous charlatan at best

hello idk if you still do stuff on this blog but opinions on people shipping the gwars. I’ve seen it happen like once or twice and idk how to feel abt it personally so I’m getting other gwar fans opinions. also ur art is cool as shit :)
ahh my first "blog mail".... who gave you this address?.......... who let you in here?.............
i should find myself lucky my first messenger is here to kiss ass! no, thank you :) it's nice knowing you fleshy strangers like my pictures, even though by now they should be rather dated to my current image creation skills... it would be nice to return to this digital space since i've got quite a bit of control over my free time at the moment, but promises are things i shan't create
to answer the question, i am what is known as a "judgemental cunt".... you won't find much kindness here regarding serious shipping or woobifying of the gwarriors. jokes and jests are one thing, but beat and trodden is the path of people on the interwebs taking every little funny thing way overboard..... too far, even........ there's real noodles in the rubber heads of these folks (chewed or otherwise)! have some decorum, is what i say
