#and things aren't good rn

[ahauntedcowboy]

being in the waiting room of an ICU is a very delicate and fragile thing. we’re all waiting to hear terrible news. and our hearts are breaking. but there’s a chance of kindness amongst strangers to grieve together.

#eri's posts #its been a long day #and things aren't good rn #i went into the ICU for the first time today to see my papaw #and it was scary #but i saw strangers ask about each other families #i saw them grieve together when one family got horrible news #i got to say hi to a little girl with beautiful big hair and a sweet smile #who cheerfully said hiiiiiiii back #and held the door open to the man i helped earlier in the parking garage #offer tissues to a crying mother #my head and heart hurts #very very emotional day #it was very very diverse and different crowd #but we all just wanted to help each other

YES IM NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT FEELS LIKE JASON IS GONNA DIE AGAIN

but fr the way bruce said "why shouldnt i kill you!" in battle lines toward jason, then ripped him off his bike in catwoman 57 (with jason stressing heavily that it could have killed him) and now bruce brainwashing jason (batman 138) into literally being afraid whenever his heart rate rises or he feels adrenaline - which isnt just vigilante stuff, you feel adrenaline when you get excited or fall in love o feel angry. also constantly being afraid causes high blood pressure, increased chances for a stroke or heart attack ect,,, honestly there is SOOO much to suggest bruce is gonna kill jason, or at least have some part in it, im terrified

Okay so firstly spoilers for batman 138 bc honestly only started thinking about this when I saw the previews / leaks from the newest issue but yeah we see later on in that issue Jason is now constantly afraid so obviously the toxin Bruce spiked him with is just working constantly and it's negatively impacting his mental state I also started thinking about this bc another character asks Jason if he'd be interested in immortality which to me is a bit of a red flag that someone's gonna die but also could just be bc vandal is around either way something is going to happen to Jason by the end and I cant say I have enough faith in zdarsky at this point that it's gonna be good

#ask #anon #tuesday spoilers #wednesday spoilers #batman spoilers #batman 138 spoilers #i am also gonna quickly list off why i don't think Jason's gonna die #hes in other books rn and seems to be slated to be in upcoming books #comics aren't usually good at keeping character deaths secret #recently they even seem to enjoy announcing it for sales #if this fear thing sticks that will already change Jason's life drastically #he'll have to basically live without emotions #adrenaline is caused by so many emotions #jason will basically have to train his body to be unfeeling

K I've been thinking about this for like a week now. Ignoring any immortal headcanons if you have them. Knuckles knows he's not going to be able to guard the Master Emerald forever and that probably troubles him, but, if he was dying do you think he'd ask Sonic to guard it? He's the person with a unique connection to Chaos and the Chaos Emeralds and he's basically chosen one the most specialest guy, and one of the few people Knuckles could trust with that duty.

Of course I think Sonic would say no. I think he'd never be able to do that and he wouldn't want to.

#lmao i think even if Knuckles was on his fucking deathbed Sonic would say no #like sure he's got a sense of duty but guarding the me would be absolute hell for him #and he's never really acknowledged if he even gets just how important Knuckles' job is #sure he gets some of it but he doesn't really care that much beyond knuckles cares deeply for SOME reason #and im not saying that as something negative i actually think good for him you know #bad for knux cause he'd be fucking tormented by that #it also makes me think about the conflict people like to write between them in forces fanfics #where knuckles didn't take care of tails enough and sonic gets pissed at him i think this is a great parallel #like i know a kid and a big magic rock aren't objectively the same thing but if you think about how it much it matters to knuckles #especially that it matters to him more than that too because it's literally his entire life #not giving the ME and knuckles' duty the acknowledgement it deserves is like saying he's wasted his life for nothing #ouough okay #sorry im in such knuckles angst mood rn pl if you have thoughts respond idk if im imagining all of this correctly gnjhgcsddgu #gimme some fuckin drama

[catsconflictscopicsandchamomile]

ok fine im a bit pissy

I did not spend HOURS of EVERY DAY this week, most often WELL AFTER MIDNIGHT

doing things for certain types of encampment that I CANT TALK ABT ON SOCIAL MEDIA ON RISK OF SELF-INCRIMINATION

to be palestine-guilted over MEMEING ABOUT MISHA COLLINS

I did not WORK MYSELF TO EXHAUSTION

face *REDACTED* and *REDACTED*

to be told that my HAPPY LITTLE FANDOM POSTING on a site with NO FINANICAL OR ALGORITHMIC SIGNIFICANCE TO CELEBRITIES somehow undoes alllll of that.

is this a good post? no. does it apply to a lot of ppl? prolly not. could I lose followers/moots for this? yeah.

but its what I'm feeling rn.

#literally the only reason im not holding the line rn is bc im actively physically ill #gods forbid that when im miserable abt not being able to help. some fantastic tumblr bs occurs to cheer me up #misha collins #misha fucking collins #like i dont even support him! why do ppl think memes = “i support this person and all their beliefs” #also its fucked up that “palestine-guilted” is even a THING. either say shit that contributes to real information spreading/activism/etc #or gtfo the movement. like this is so unserious in the worst possible way #sorry im probably going to get so much hate on this post I'm just. tired. and angry. #i keep saying this but every time you want to make a post shaming ppl on tumblr for supporting a celeb/public figure over this issue.... #ask yourself why you aren't using that time and energy to make change in a way that matters. #yall clearly are angry for the right reasons and have really good hearts. but this aint it. ppl online arent gonna care and these actors+ #dont know you exist and likely never will.

[Img ID: post reading "it doesnt matter if we're feminine or masculine or androgynous. they'll want us dead anyway. THIS POST IS ABOUT TRANS MEN AND TRANSMASCULINE PEOPLE. DO NOT DERAIL. MAKE YOUR OWN POST." /end ID]

I think actually we've reached terminal selfishness and self-centeredness when "look basic transphobia. THIS IS ONLY ABOUT SOME TRANS PEOPLE. MAKE YOUR OWN POST" is considered acceptable behavior, like

1 this is the reblogging posts site. if you don't want it "derailed", turn off reblogs

2 it's not "derailing" to talk about experiencing the exact same type of oppression for the exact same reasons. like, this is tagged transandrophobia. y'know, the word coined to talk about oppression UNIQUE TO or MORE TYPICALLY EXPERIENCED by trans men and mascs? Like I know we're all super sensitive to "it's just transphobia" because bad faith actors use it to shut us up about our own oppression, but even if transandrophobia is ANY transphobia experienced by transmascs, this one is SO not unique and SO universal that calling other trans people "derailing" for daring to acknowledge they experience it is honestly transphobic itself

3. Are you being transmisogynistic or exorsexist it both? Do you find it offensive that a group even more erased than transmascs (trans people who are neither transfem nor transmasc) might "take the spotlight" by experiencing the same pain as you? Are you just mad that transfems suffer from hypervisibility (a key factor in transmisogyny, no less) that you're wrongly viewing as some sort of privilege?

Like this is the logical end conclusion of exclusion, separatism, and the idea that it's immoral or even just dickish to talk about SHARED experiences of oppression. Even those who aren't convinced that there's no overlap and oppression fits into neat little boxes based on your actual identity (and that people with multiple identities experience each oppression as discrete separate forms of violence OR a new unique form of oppression that no one else ever does) are like "I have the right to shut people out of a discussion of their own pain and trauma just because *I* experienced it for THIS reason

Like, I draw the line at someone saying anything more exclusionary than "oh I didn't name all groups that experience this because this was a more personal vent post, but please share your experiences because this isn't exclusive to us".

Idk I can't even articulate what's so gross and off-putting about this. But whatever, this intersex transneufemmasc is making their own post so they aren't (implied) transandrophobic by, idk, being transmasc but also other things and experiencing this same thing based on those other identities, or acknowledging that those other identities share these experiences in the absence of transmasculinity.

Also, nontransmasculine/non-trans-men experience transandrophobia, you fucking asshole. Transneutral, abinary/atrinary, neutrois, maverique, and other trans people that are seen as transmasc by bigots experience no material differences in the oppression they face. Their experiences are almost identical to yours - except they have to either be misgendered to be acknowledged or get erased. What functional difference do you think there is between an afab person pursuing what you forcibly label a "masculine" transition facing this exact shit, and you, other than that they respect your gender and you don't return the favor. Or you do, only to shut them out of a conversation that they have less of a voice in than you do.

That's just fucking transphobia. Fuck off.

If you're being so defensive over past trauma you bite people BEFORE you know they're unsafe, maybe you need to get a fucking grip.

#cw discourse #the logical end course of “no ME MINE ONLY MY OPPRESSION NO TOUCHY GO HAVE YOUR OWN CONVO SOMEWHERE ELSE” #is the total destruction of any community #like sorry actually it's impossible to do community building if you're gonna throw a tantrum about SHARED TRAUMA #fuck off #I do not have the energy to extend any good faith rn tbh #I'm so fucking tired of the experience of being multiple things and being shut out of all involved communities for being multiple #only with sometimes 'well you ARE x so you're allowed I GUESS but NEVER TALK ABOUT BEING y' #like x and y aren't inextricably intertwined #I am not transfem. and transmasc. and transneutral. I am transneufemmasc. #I know I sometimes only include some for convenience but like. the truth is I will always be all those things #so I have a right to speak #and I just KNOW they would consider it derailing to even talk about how I experience it as a TRANSneufemMASC #because they don't actually mean it's about trans men and mascs #they mean it's about people who are EXCLUSIVELY trans men and mascs #well actually it's about just them but they can't pretend it's praxis to tell other people it's derailing to join the conversation #if they just say 'this is about me. other people shut up' #funny enough if it just said 'personal vent post. please make a new post if you want to talk about your experiences' #I'd respect that FAR more

opla fans after atla live action dropped on netflix probably idk:

#for legal reasons this is a joke #lion.txt #opla #atla live action #to be perfectly blunt i only Kind Of have a dog in this fight #i wasn't really invested in one piece prior to opla (although i'm inherently biased about pirate media so it already appealed to me) #but this isn't a haha one piece is inherently better than atla king of thing #because i wasn't even invested in it until AFTER opla dropped and THEN i got really invested in it #but it seems like people aren't all that happy with atla live action #and that makes me sad for the atla fans who were really looking forward to the show #but as it stands it seems like the only truly good western live action anime adaptation is.......one piece??? #like correct me if i'm wrong but that's??? the list??? #anyway. #posting this when i'm sick as a dog rn so u can blame the ricola #one piece live action #avatar the last airbender live action

ah they just had the fiancee cheat with arguably the slimiest character in the show to try and balance out the leads finally kissing, all of a sudden spells aren't real and the curse is entirely forgotten they're solving everything with lazy ass writing okay

#don't get me wrong - shinyu trying to leave hongjo alone while desperately yearning being protective and playfully possessive/jealous #only to kiss her when he's so overcome with accepting his (and realizing her) truth SHOULD be delicious #and yet... once my bi heart looks past the chemistry/visuals... 😐 #destined with you #also implicating hongjo as stealing 2nd fl's man twice for so long and having her slapped - make it make sense pls #like yes she's lonely immature and being wooed made her feel good inside but she never encouraged shinyu's behavior #hasn't even figured out she doesn't like jae kyung or whatever anymore for herself #technically shinyu's feelings aren't her responsibility esp w/o magic but the show's premise rn makes her the 'other woman' to blame #we're in the middle of things unravelling but i s2g if she doesn't have agency or a modicum or self respect/honesty in the next eps.. 🤦🏾‍♀️ #but going back to the post - the show could have justified shinyu's breakup with the fact that he wasn't invested from the beginning #or that 2nd fl is a two faced bully and show that forcing relationships bc of status/attraction/history/family pressure ends poorly #but instead it's taking a female character who would be justifiably upset and vilifying her so that her pain seems deserved #she's already unlikable and pitiful (there's like only two women in this entire show portrayed positively) but no #let's make her as 2d & evil as possible to uplift hongjo instead of putting in work to develop the lead/story & appeal to the audience #writers prove me wrong challenge

[nyehilismwriting]

Ok important question, how/do the aliens kiss? Like does the species kiss or have something with the same meaning?

they don't kiss in the way we would think about it, since they don't have mobile lips and have much larger mouths, but they do a lot of like. head nudges, nose touching, rubbing their faces together, that kind of thing. individuals with a lot of experience with humans - particular how humans expression affection/desire - will pick up more habits akin to kissing, depending on their partner - gentle bites, licking, etc.

they also have very long tongues, so do with that information what you will.

#i think culturally they do a lot of like. grooming #and scale care and things for their families and partners #and their ideas about what consistutes an 'intimate' touch (non-sexual) are slightly different #when they're with their friends and family they tend to be very physically touchy #also bc there's levels of communication that come from like. pheromons and sub-vocal frequency sounds and stuff so they like to be close #so they can hear each other #like being able to see your partner's face and knowing what they're thinking #they don't do very many facial expressions so they aren't very good at reading human faces but they ARE good at body language #and a big part of that is touch #so touch averse operatives are going to have some interesting conversations if they're romancing rhaxa #rhaxa has Read Books he knows humans don't like to be grabbed and have their faces touched he is being very good about that rn #but. yeah #sorry u said the magic phrase (asked me about the bugs) so u get an essay #anon #bug lore

ik I'm the edgy suicide mutual but i really do love bsd's themes even if i don't quite follow its ideas in my own life. i think the story uses them in a very lovely way and does give them focus and they underline every element of the story even if not in immediately obvious ways and i think that's what's important

#back in november when i was like a month into bsd i started writing an essay abt this exact theme of reasons to live #idk man. ig it kinda touched me. enough to start moving things in my life at least #(never gonna admit it again so cherish that one lol) #not only do i think it's a good story but it's also an important one. exactly for those reasons i think #yknow like how ppl say hq hypes you to work hard for your goals and p5 makes you want to stand up against injustice? #maybe this is part of what asagiri meant when he said bsd is for ppl who aren't good at living. maybe it can inspire them (...us) #to find some other thing in life to strive for. to find a meaning. even if it's in stories #idk maybe I'm speaking nonsense rn hehe I'm very emotional rn for some reason and special interest brain is working overtime
