#and yes I’m still fucking mad about it
Text
just gonna go ahead and say this in advance—
if Riz does indeed come out in junior year, and he says, “I’m ace” or “I’m asexual” when referring specifically to his lack of romantic attraction, aromantic people are allowed to be upset about it.
#because yes of course some people irl say ace to mean both bc that’s how they personally identify#but in fictional media the distinction is necessary. especially with how few canonically aromantic characters even exist in ANY mainstream/#popular media.#I assure you I’m not invalidating anyone who is ace and they mean that to include lack of romantic attraction.#But to look at this from a MEDIA PERSPECTIVE its irresponsible to do this w/out clarification that they also know the word aromantic exists#because otherwise that’s just a conflation of asexual and aromantic without any nuance#and an erasure of aromantic people who are not asexual.#Plus—name a single fucking time a character in mainstream/popular media has said the word aromantic.#Because I can name several instances where they say asexual. But I can’t think of ONE where they say aro or aromantic.#(Maybe that Isaac kid does in season 2 of Heartstopper? But I haven’t seen it so I’m not 100% sure.)#anyways.#the way this fucking fandom—and ANY fandom with a canon aro character—discusses the aromantic spectrum#is blatantly just to remove their own personal guilt for shipping that character with other characters and erasing their orientation.#because yes aromanticism IS a spectrum!! But when people talk about fabriz and say ‘he can still be ace!’ (Which is aro erasure) or#‘he can still be aro!’ They never SHOW riz still being aro or having any kind of complex relationship with romance.#I’m angry and I’m allowed to be.#I get that a ship you liked may be hard to let go of or something#But I’d be much less mad if all the fabriz fans said ‘yeah I know Riz is aro in canon and he and Fabian would never get together.#I just like to imagine it sometimes in fiction/fanon!’ Then that would be a WHOLE different conversation#Because then they’d at least be acknowledging that riz doesn’t feel romance in canon. That fabriz is something that actively#Goes against the canon characterization of one of those characters—and that’s fine. Just fucking ACKNOWLEDGE IT.#But most of these people either WANT fabriz to be canon/believe it WILL BE canon#OR I guess feel uncomfortable confronting the fact that they ARE erasing riz’s aromanticism so they don’t even acknowledge it at all.#fhjy#fantasy high#d20#dimension 20#riz gukgak#aromantic riz gukgak#fhsy

Ima need yall to STOP comparing zuko to characters who don’t deserve to be compared to him. Y’all compare him to the most heartless characters or people whose empathy was nowhere near his, and I’m tired. Like I wish I wasn’t so offended but damn I really am.
And then y’all compare zutara with ships that are just so……….. why just why???? “Why??” doesn’t even cover it like i ask with all the love in my heart to please shut the fuck up

Does Mayuri Kurotsuchi know that I would lovingly stare at him as he dissected me and be so brave about it and only try to grasp at him a couple times at most? I need him to know. He has to know I am insane for him.

i don’t have words about this other than “i figured out what savior does and it’s that he snatched a gravity generator from some iterator or another and refuses to give it back”
so basically he can float sometimes and also levitate other critters. aka most of the things he does in canon already. why does the generator look like that? idk bro i just wanted to keep the halo design

Wow, the US medical system really doesn’t want me conscious or functional.
Brought to you by my sleep doctor’s still not having sent in the prescription for my narcolepsy meds even though my appointment was 12 days ago, and I’ve now been unmedicated for over a month, and am back to spending most of my time asleep, or if I’m very lucky, and suffer for it the next day, I can write meta or outline fics that I someday hope to write, but not actually write the fics themselves because I am too exhausted.
Brought to you also by my health insurance and the coupon program that makes my migraine meds affordable, since they are trying to force me to stop using the only medication that works on me.
Being disabled is exhausting and infuriating and a thankless, mandatory full-time job, and I hate it.
*screams loudly into the void *

Fun part about a character having almost no canon stuff, or canonically having different selves across the multiverse, or even both, is just,, getting to say whatever tf you want about them
Anyways, there’s definitely a Diane out there with religious trauma from being raised in a cult-like environment (not even a cool one, she bemoans, a weird fucking one where they were convinced all pharmacists were witches and painkillers were their way of allowing demons to enter our bodies 🙄) who has. no fucking idea how to respond when Rick starts calling himself “god” (no early dying for her, she lives long enough to see his science really take off)
Her Rick stops saying the god stuff around her pretty quickly out of respect for her, but she still has that nagging anxiety that her religious trauma influenced the type of guy she chose

the one poll about which brother is the main character irritates me. you have samgirls being like “Dean is winning because you guys think Jensen is hot” and “the lack of critical thinking on the site is insane” and then you have them, in the same reply, going, “i voted for Sam because it was supposed to be Sam but the writers spent more time on Dean and his plot.” okayyyyy so… if it was SUPPOSED to be Sam… but isn’t… then Sam is not the main character… idk why the samgirls go after everyone as if it’s just attractiveness that makes Dean the main character like, dude, that’s just a perk. And what’s even worse is the replies will also be like, “the writers focused on Dean heavily from s2 on” as if that isn’t SO EARLY. That means they spend FOURTEEN seasons with heavy Dean material, but he’s winning the poll purely because he’s hot? And everyone else should “die mad” that Sam is “supposed to be” the lead?

Listen I don’t know how you could read the last line before the *** and the line after the *** and not conclude they made out. I’m just being reasonable here

i will never outgrow responding to people in confusing ways but it will be ok because people are patient :)
#post tag#wish people online were more patient. constantly you see somebody fucking up an interaction in a way that would be forgiven irl#but is punished harshly here#and then everyone laughs and reblogs it#like. idk. please consider that we are all people on here and these are all interactions#when you make a joke at somebody’s expense there is a person on the other side of the screen being made fun of!#it doesn’t happen to me but i don’t really interact with strangers online much#i dont want to get too preachy here sorry. this was supposed to be a post about how i confuse people at the start of interactions constantly#but i stumble my way to the middle of the conversation and then it’s mostly ok. frequently#however i have been thinking about how mean people can be on here recently… idk#i slept 3 hours last night and i blame the fact that i saw a tweet that pissed me off and got mad for like an hour and a half#and eventually calmed down but still couldn’t fall asleep. for some reason#anyway i wanted to say that i’m not sure if the way people react to social missteps on here is the way people want to react to me when i do#it irl. or not#i don’t . like the idea that people might want to punish me for it but feel unable to due to pressure to be polite. pressure that then doesn#t exist online#i ​hope not. lol#however i do ask you (yes you. the girl reading this. or whatever) to step back & think ‘would i say this to somebody’s face’ next time you#want to reblog with an epic comeback#oh god my sentences are getting so long. girl who simply cannot stop talking#girl who is blogginggggg <3#ANYWAY. enough. let’s return to my original point which was that i like it when people are nice to me

Also people (other postdoc) are really frustrating today because they’re being VERY indirect with their questions. Like WHY do you want to know whether anyone else was asked to review a paper out of this special issue. Were you feeling combative and thinking you might have been asked to take on additional ~labor~? WHY do you ask me if it’s a good idea to get our class students to attend the events we’re putting on for the ling dept? Is it because you want to inform me that we SHOULD (since you’re citing our PI saying it’s a good idea)? Or are you actually asking me if this thing that would improve our attendance numbers and therefore look better is a thing that we should do… to improve our attendance numbers… and look better..?
Also undergrad, buddy, you KNOW where “the lab” is, which is why I didn’t elaborate further when I said that’s where we should meet today, because you were THERE when PI had us go on a lab tour for one of our lab meetings and when she explained that this space is shared by all of the psycholinguists and their students/lab members, and that’s why when you go to “the lab” for the OTHER PI you work with, you frequently see me working there even though I am not formally a member of other PI’s lab
I have a meeting with this undergrad and a grad student in an hour and I really need to shake off this incredible amount of irritation I’m feeling but oh my god WHY ARE PEOPLE LIKE THIS

out of context things heard in wayne manor:
bruce: i understand, but pretending you cooked jerry the turkey is not a proportionate response to damian calling you a peasant again
————————
jason: look there’s a right way and a wrong way to make food. there’s also the bruce way, which is the wrong way except faster and worse
duke: *frantically scribbling notes*
————————
tim: do you think our relationship was kinda like incest now?
steph, horrified: never open your mouth in my presence again timothy
————————
dick: so then he’s like—guys. guys are you seriously signing about me in front of my face. i learned it too—hey i do NOT have a butt chin take that back—
————————
damian: i don’t understand, why does he wear such a ridiculous hat? is it like that margaret poppins woman grayson showed me?
tim, who watched the live action cat in the hat too much as a kid and is about to violently infodump: well you see-
dick: oh god it’s too late
jason: yeah the brats on his own for this one i’m not fucking dealing with that again
————————
bruce: are you lying?
tim: always. anyway, like i was saying—
————————
steph: hey what’s up with you and all the redheads
dick: …i’m not discussing this with you
steph, starting to chase him: gingervitus is a serious affliction! you cant run from this
dick, sprinting away: yes the fuck i can
————————
duke: so is anyone gonna talk about the elephant in the room…
dick:
dick: look i was feeling sentimental and zitka jr. really isn’t any trouble
damian: she is magnificent
————————
tim: so i dropped out and
duke: wait we can drop out of high school??!!?
bruce: NO.
duke: please bruce ap biology is beating my ass right now
jason: nah tim just got to drop cause bruce was dead and he’s a loser. the real problem is what you’re reading in ap lit right now, because i have thoughts on that curriculum—
duke: i’m not even gonna use half that material in the real world
tim: actually most of our villains have PhDs so their plans are based on pretty real science
duke: not helping timothy
————————
cass, signing: why are brothers on the ceiling?
jason: tims in timeout from working on his caseload
cass, still confused: yes but why taped to the ceiling
duke: listen if you know a better way of restraining his psycho ass then i’m all ears
cass: and damian?
jason: oh he saw this as free range target practice so he had to go up there too
cass: they are plotting revenge up there
duke: think of it as brotherly bonding
————————
damian: it’s not my fault he got in the way
bruce: you threw an eclair at lex luthor
damian: i was aiming for drake
tim: bruce we can’t take him anywhere
dick, holding back laughter: timmy you paid four separate people to come to the gala solely to ask lex if they could use his head to see if they had something in their teeth
tim: you have no proof that was me
————————
duke: look steph, it’s not that we don’t want to help with this
jason: i don’t want to help
duke: it’s more that i don’t think we can physically fit that many people in a shopping cart, and your whole plan kind of hinges on that
————————
alfred: i’m not mad, just disappointed in you.
every batkid, near tears: sorry alfred
————————
jason: HE HAD DIPLOMATIC IMMUNITY AS THE FUCKING WHAT—
