probably time for this story i guess but when i was a kid there was a summer that my brother was really into making smoothies and milkshakes. part of this was that we didn't have AC and couldn't afford to run fans all day so it was kind of important to get good at making Cool Down Concoctions.
we also had a patch of mint, and he had two impressionable little sisters who had the attitude of "fuck it, might as well."
at one point, for fun, this 16 year old boy with a dream in his eye and scientific fervor in heart just wanted to see how far one could push the idea of "vanilla mint smoothie". how much vanilla extract and how much mint can go into a blender before it truly is inedible.
the answer is 3 cups of vanilla extract, 1/2 cup milk alternative, and about 50 sprigs (not leaves, whole spring) of mint. add ice and the courage of a child. idk, it was summer and we were bored.
the word i would use to describe the feeling of drinking it would maybe be "violent" or perhaps, like. "triangular." my nose felt pristine. inhaling following the first sip was like trying to sculpt a new face. i was ensconced in a mesh of horror. it was something beyond taste. for years after, i assumed those commercials that said "this is how it feels to chew five gum" were referencing the exact experience of this singular viscous smoothie.
what's worse is that we knew our mother would hate that we wasted so much vanilla extract. so we had to make it worth it. we had to actually finish the drink. it wasn't "wasting" it if we actually drank it, right? we huddled around outside in the blistering sun, gagging and passing around a single green potion, shivering with disgust. each sip was transcendent, but in a sort of non-euclidean way. i think this is where i lost my binary gender. it eroded certain parts of me in an acidic gut ecology collapse.
here's the thing about love and trust: the next day my brother made a different shake, and i drank it without complaint. it's been like 15 years. he's now a genuinely skilled cook. sometimes one of the three of us will fuck up in the kitchen or find something horrible or make a terrible smoothie mistake and then we pass it to each other, single potion bottle, and we say try it it's delicious. it always smells disgusting. and then, cerimonious, we drink it together. because that's what family does.
#this is true#writeblr#warm up#relatedly for some reason one of our Favorite Jokes#amongst the Siblings#is like - ''this is so good u will love it''#while we are reacting to something we OBVIOUSLY find viscerally disgusting#like we will be actively retching and be like ''nooooo it's so good''#to the point that i sometimes get nervous if someone outside my family is like oh u should try it its good#(obvi we never force each other to eat anything. we are all just curious birds and#like. we're GONNA try the new thing.)#edit to answer why we had so much vanilla:#my mom is a very good cook and we LOVE to bake. so she just had a lot of staples in the house.#it's one of those things that's like. have u ever continuously thought ''ah i should get butter im probably out''#even tho u are not out of butter. so u end up with like 5 years of butter.#my mom would do that in a costco but like with vanilla extract#to be fair we WERE always using WAY TOO MUCH bc we were kids#so like she was right to stock up#ps. yes we were VERY sick after this lol i just didn't want to include it in the post in case ppl had an ick about that#u can tell it's real bc we knew "oh no we fucked up that's too much vanilla to waste'' but our reaction was to just. keep drinking it#> sibling understanding that vanilla extract isn't free > knowledge mother doesnt mind if we use it for milkshakes#> sibling choice to maybe get in a loophole of ''not wasting it'' if we drink it bc that's the same as using it (not throwing it out)#listen bud i was like 13 and my sister was like 9#when my mom discovered this we. got in. A LOT. of trouble. a lot of it. a LOT of it.#3rd edit bc i guess it isn't clear - i am 1 of my brother's 2 little sisters#i am the middle child#out of all the ways i have had to explain a post before being like ''did u forget a middle child can happen'' is my favorite

According to NBC here in the US, the missing titanic sub has been found. As debris. Off the bow of the Titanic wreckage.
And it looks like the sub suffered what we all suspected, and what was undoubtedly the more merciful of the two options: a catastrophic implosion from the pressure.
Also, more info has come to light about the fishing trawler with the hundreds of migrants that sank cataclysmically off the coast of Greece, indicating that the greek coast guard knew about the vessel AND how much trouble the vessel was in, and were towing it at a speed that made it capsize, at which point they unhooked the tow line and watched the trawler sink without helping the passengers to safety. Despite a bunch of other ships trying to help as well throughout the whole ordeal.
So a lot of people are dead, all because of regulations (and the lack thereof) regarding sea-faring vessels and rescue protocols. People shouldnt be allowed to make a business charging a ton of money for a ride on an uncertified, unsafe, un-seaworthy ship going deep into the ocean with no distress beacon or tether to the mothership. People also shouldnt be allowed to enact laws that criminalize the ferrying of refugees, which then force the refugees to hitch rides on fishing trawlers, and which also prevent people from helping those fishing trawlers full of refugees due to fear of legal consequences.
Hopefully BOTH of these events spark changes on an international scale in terms of what is legally allowed to be sailed, who is legally allowed to be the passengers, and what the rescue protocols are in the event of disaster for any seafaring vessel, illegal or not. It shouldnt be just the global 1% who get 24/7 search parties and remote-operated submersibles helping rescue them.

More skater au but its just about Vriska because of course it is.
Vriska is only about three years older than John (the same age as Dirk), which is probably one of the closer Coach/Athlete age disparities in the figure skating world, but Vriska's circumstances are pretty unique.
Vriska was one of Abraxas' athletes, and had been with them since she was 10 years old, when her mother signed her away to them. Vriska had spent basically her whole adolescence under Doc Scratch's thumb, and her personality and work ethic reflect that.
This was, of course, common knowledge in figure skating spaces, and so, when Latula "Redglare" Pyrope and her young cousin/apprentice Terezi first approached Vriska when she was around 14 to talk about her life with Abraxas, Vriska wasn't surprised. She was, however, greatly annoyed when the b8tch started asking more personal and damning questions about the relationship and the conditions she lived in.
This is the first instance of many in the coming years where Pyrope tries desperately to get Vriska to testify against Doc Scratch and Abraxas, because with just a few back and forths, it becomes glaringly obvious that Vriska's testimony would be absolutely essential to finally killing ahem getting the guy off the streets.
It takes a long time. Vriska is absolutely passionate about skating, and knows (because Doc Scratch tells her so) that if she steps out of line, her career is over.
It's only when Vriska turns 18 that the scales tip. The absolute pressure coming from Abraxas and Pyrope, the stress of training, the upcoming competitions, and the deterioration of the relationship Vriska had formed with Terezi against all odds, causes Vriska to perform an acrobatic triple lutz off the handle.
Aradia Megido and Tavros Nitram were two Abraxas skaters Vriska's age that Doc Scratch had pitted her against. Vriska hated them for how easy their lives seemed compared to hers (Vriska was the Favorite, but that also meant added pressure and obligations), and she especially hated Tavros who was just. UGH. The W8RST!!!!!!!!
Needless to say, shit went down. There were some stairs no one warned Tavros about, very sad. Aradia tried to stop it, but was also injured (thank you bystander Sollux with random minor explosive). Terezi saw the whole thing, broke up with Vriska about it, lost her sight about it, and then tattled to Redglare.
...And also, unfortunately, a whole room of other people. Whoops. Can't see, remember?
The scandal blew up, and the Figure Skating Committee (vague name is vague) who had been looking for an excuse to get rid of Vriska for multiple reasons, immediately banned her from competition for life.
As a result, Vriska was utterly devastated, and extremely volatile. In any other scenario, it would have been extremely easy for Vriska to turn on Pyrope and destroy any chance the prosecutor had of getting her testimony. Considering her cousin's hand in Vriska's downfall, it's what Redglare expected. But F8 was on her side, and Redglare was able to get to Vriska before Doc Scratch could cement her against them. She talked Vriska's hatred and desire for vengeance away from herself and toward Doc Scratch.
Look at what has come of all the training he's put you through. The horrible diets, the dismissed injuries, the 18 hour days. What has it come to?
It was a long and emotionally exhausting discussion, but by the end, she had her.
Abraxas would pay.
And afterwards? Maybe she could get Vriska an in back into figure skating...

do you think freesia and jd would ever get back together? or will they stay sort-of friends?
I'm not going to lie, I kinda like the idea of them starting to date again and seeing where it takes them. 🙈 freesia sneaked into my heart for some reason (she kind of started this new trend of mine where i make ocs that were created to be dicks and then me just getting protective of them and trying to reason out their awful behavior kasjsdj)
also their ship already has a #1 hater and #1 supporter, both of which are doing it for the wrong reasons...

The sky's a burnt orange, with the Citadel enclosed in a mighty glass dome, shining under the twin suns. Beyond that, the mountains go on forever. Slopes of deep red grass, capped with snow.

October 22-28 is Ace Week 2023, so I’d like to give a spotlight to some manga I have enjoyed that have also touched on asexuality.
I Want To Be A Wall by Honami Shirono
Tumblr media
A 3 volume Josei manga about the lavender marriage between Gakurouta, a closeted gay man who pines for his childhood friend, and Yuriko, an aromantic, asexual BL fangirl.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
She Loves To Cook, and She Loves To Eat by Sakaomi Yuzaki
Tumblr media
An ongoing yuri Josei manga with a TV adaptation about two women who bond over food. The series recently introduced Yako, an asexual lesbian, and it’s possible that protagonist Nomoto may be on the ace spectrum as well.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Is Love The Answer? by Uta Isaki
Tumblr media
A single volume josei manga about Chika, a young college student who has always considered herself an “alien” because she has no desire for romance or physical intimacy, but finds community with people like herself.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Our Dreams At Dusk: Shimanami Tasogare by Yuhki Kamatani
Tumblr media
A 4 volume Seinen manga about a closeted gay boy who gets to know the patrons of a drop-in center who all turn out to be part of the LGBTQ community. Someone-san might be considered a deuteragonist of the story.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I’d also like to mention two yuri manga I haven’t finished yet- I have only read the first volume of both- but because of what others have said I know they feature asexual characters!
Catch These Hands! (murata)

Doughnuts Under a Crescent Moon (Shio Usui)
