procrastination is starting to have its consequences finally

#on my friends living room floor they love together but one of them has been london for weeks or maybe months #to be with her love. im on a foam mattress from one of their beds next to a glass bottle of water opened by one of them #in a mug given to me by another. the weather felt like my childhood today and it also felt like 2 years ago. #(put space in the heavens Einstein's idea and hes your friend too so nothing to fear) around the table they drank and laughed and i thought #i hope you keep growing so full with the love you receive . i hope your appetite becomes insatiable from how used to it you are #and i know youre all leaving soon but i hope one day you miss this and that youll be happy you miss it #its worth missing i think #i thought he didnt care but he said after exams hes going walk around this area over and over #(this is near where he lived and where we visited almost daily for a year) #(hed come across the bridge on a lake) #we went where she used to live and at the entrance a fox sat calmly. it just yawned and stared. #it felt important somehow. i think maybe their impressions of me will never be close to how i feel inside but i think #i love them enough for that not to matter. i dont think theyll ever know this. i dont think if they did it would change much. #and seeing them smile makes my heart glow anyway. today i tried their malaysian tea the ginger burned my throat #they warmed my heart. hes going to canada soon and hes going to the US soon and shes going everywhere soon ill never understand #how were supposed to live with memories and with seperation and with the past but we do it anyway so i think it doesnt matter much #i wanted to write a poem for the lab rats with the fibre optic wires lit with blue forcing them to turn around and around #something about how im sorry that the two photon arrays burned the inside of your brain. im sorry about the sharp points of multielectrode #arrayes. im sorry about everything we do to you. she asked to see me tomorrow. im trying to have self control but i miss her so awfully #last night my friend talked to me and i updated on everything that happened with love and the lack of it and she just started laughing #and she told me about the same thing from her side. and she told me about how she loved london because she would walk the streets #and she felt like the people were her. and her eyes would go over the people and the bag of bagels and the construction men they probably #have a kid at home maybe shes a daughter. this kid is crying for her mother and the building you just walked past caused #blisters and pain and people died in it and very likely people were born in it. we talked for hours and i felt like #i was holding her hand just like that time she held mine watching a horror film. i love her so much #my friend is a genius and i remember her picking up the charms of my phone and staring at the leaf hanging from them. shes side stepping to #music drinking dangerous cider and cocktails from a movie and chit chatting with billionaires and undergrads #i love her dearly. his head covered in electrodes. she tells me about a syrian guy shes in love with and she says #what you feel and what i feel is like cocaine. ive tried a lot of fucking cocaine. #she says ive reminded her of what living actually feels like and to never put energy into someone who doesnt see me this way.

In the universe in which Bruce Wayne and Joker are in a public relationship and are a power couple, I gots some thoughts.

So, Bruce visits Joker in Arkham or whatever. Like brings him flowers or something, I dunno. And someone says something about how they cannot BELIEVE billionaire Bruce Wayne would spend his time with someone who is mentally unstable enough to be in Arkham. Well, said someone's buisness suddenly fails when for some unbeknownst reason, Wayne Enterprises stop financially supporting said buisness.

Some time later, Joker and Bruce are at a gala. Bruce Wayne expierences autism 100 moment and someone goes ableism about it. Just a passing comment. And then after the rich socialite party, maybe two nights after, Joker doesn't kill them, but he sure does psychological torture.

#If you cannot tell by how I wrote this‚ my brain is fried. #It took all my strength not to call Joker 'the Jonker' and I'm proud I didn't. #I do not know WHY I've been thinking about Batjokes so much but I have. #And WHY CAN'T I FIND FICS LIKE THIS? I don't want Batman and Joker smooching!!!! No no no! #What I want is infamous criminal Joker and billionaire with social status Bruce Wayne gay married! #And the press won't leave them alone about it! The news is always telling stories. It's great for Bruce Wayne's cover! #All the headlines think Bruce Wayne is secretly some villain because how else is he gay married to Joker?????? #Cuz he. Heem. Him. He's Batman. #And everytime Alfred forces Bruce to go to a gala and network‚ Joker is his date. And all the billionaires are scared out of their brains. #How is everyone so hyped up on the freak nature of Batman and Joker going at it freak style and not THIS? #I get the appeal‚ but this has layers of intriguing in another aspect that I feel isn't explored enough. #AND THERE ARE TOO MANY FANFICTIONS FOR ME TO SORT THROUGH TO FIND SOMETHING LIKE THIS! #And think about it! If Joker lives with Bruce Wayne‚ and everyone knows where Bruce Wayne lives‚ and Joker does some joking... #And Batman goes to handle the situation‚ it would make a REALLY good excuse if anyone notices Batman going into the Wayne residence. #Batman can be like 'Oh no. I'm not here after a long day of crime fighting cuz I live here!!! I'm here to interrogate Joker!' #And then everyone smiles and nods. #autistic Bruce Wayne #Sentiments of a vampire. #batjokes

ended up telling my mom “she’s a billionaire pop star … she’s also a songwriter I’ve loved for a long time. both of those things are true.”

#not a conversation I can have for a long time as it’s too uncomfortable #but it was good to push through and say it #it’s interesting. I will always have a deep emotional connection to Taylor and also always love her as a person and an artist #and she IS a billionaire pop star with all of the attendant choices that go with that #and as i’ve gotten older there’s just been way more distance #in terms of my need to defend her choices or agree with them or even understand them #I have grown less defensive of her (in a good way) #and I think am more able to just See What Is To Be Seen #without. again. feeling the need to take it all on as something I have to defend on behalf of someone I am Holding Up as an Example #I’m not holding her up? like. #idk if this makes sense #But I remember reaching this point where I was just like ‘gosh I hope she never writes a song that contradicts any of the songs’ #‘upon which I have built this artistic vision’ #‘of her and what she stands for’ #and it was so funny because it was this TERRIFIED desire on my part to freeze time #and freeze Taylor #so that my reading would be true forever #just wanted to put her in a cottage on the top of a hill and keep her safe there forever #metaphorically but also literally! #and then I’ve just had to let that go #best believe she’s still bejeweled lol #that was for me TOO #and anyway her sheer prolificness made it clear I was never going to be able to keep this watchful eye on it all #it was just going to have to pour in and I was going to have to let it #and also on some level emotionally personally I was going to have to step back #and be less invested in a certain way #in a very real daily life kind of way #anyway after the eras tour was so funny because i had this strong sense that we were being SWEPT out of the stadium #with Taylor’s trademark Efficiency. and it was hilarious. Like yes yes the love and connection and talent is real #and Billionaire Pop Star has places to be and a crowd of peasants to manage!!! (I say this with love and a sense of humor) anyway

Okay i have yet to see a post about this that isnt filled with ppl being Annoying as Fuck on it, but,

theyve found wreckage of the submersible, it imploded (thank god, thats better than a drawn out suffocation over the course of several days, implosion means it was pretty much instantaneous) and the us navy have revealed they heard a weird sound on sunday from about where communication with the sub was lost, that was probably the sound of the implosion, [implied that they didnt say anything cos they didnt want to jump to conclusions without evidence of a wreckage, if there was a chance they were still alive.] no idea what the banging sounds were.

I do hope rescue efforts are extended to the migrants off the coast of greece, and am angry and horrified at their mistreatment, and that the media clearly cares less for their fates than that of the billionaires on the sub.

also, while i have you here,

The difference between a submersible and a submarine is not that one is safer. The titan was a submersible that was unsafe, but that is not because it was a submersible.

A submarine (or sub) is a watercraft capable of independent operation underwater.

A submersible is a watercraft designed to operate underwater, usually supported by a nearby surface vessel, platform, shore team or sometimes a larger submarine.

submarines generally dont go as deep as our deepest submersibles, but some can be down there for months at a time bc it is like. a self sufficient Ship. not all submersibles can go crazy deep, but to my knowledge, the only crewed vessels that can go that deep, are submersibles. (Alvin, deepsea challenger, limiting factor, trieste, fendouzhe or "striver").

#toy txt post #titan submersible #if ppl start being annoying on this post. ill turn off reblogs and block all of you. make your own post. #reblog the other ones where people are already being annoying #yes i hate billionaires. but im glad it was a quick death. it was a horrific situation. hope those migrants are given support and help. #i hope oceangate is fined to hell and back and bankrupted and never gets to put anyone in any sort of vehicle ever again #especially not in the ocean. im a little glad that ceo is dead in his own stupid sub im just frustrated he was able to take other ppl with #him. the fact that he was able to operate that unregulated non safety standard meeting ass vehicle and charge people money to ride in it is #fucking insane and unconcioable however you spell that #and now i need to go shower real quick and try to get like. a little over 3hrs of sleep. which will suck but i did accidentally nap for #like? 2 hrs already so it doesnt suck as bad as it could. goodnight please dont be stupid on this post please please please #if you have a hot take on the situation im begging you to hot take it Some Where Else! thank you! good bye #im not gonna bother linking shit feel free to fact check just fuckin. google titan submersible. James Cameron is tossing his 2 cents in now #saw 2 separate articles on that already. thats fine i guess he has been down there in safer vehicles so i guess he can shit talk how unsafe #it is. anyway. saw someone in the comments of a post say it was a submersible bc it was too unsafe to be a submarine and i wanted to start #screaming. thats not what those fucking words mean! at all! god! #irl death #idk what else to tag #behave. bye

I just end each of my work days completely fucking exhausted, which I feel like a lot of people would scoff at since I work a tech support job where 90% of my work day is spent sat in front of a computer answering phones and emails to, well, provide technical support. But it is so draining, especially since I am so introverted. My throat hurts from talking so much. I am so tired. I've still got two days left this week and those two days are PACKED with more meetings and I am so tired.

#i feel like people are always like ''office jobs aren't hard'' but it's like . . . they are just in a different way #i have also worked retail and food service and at a gas station #so i know those are also unforgiving hells #but this is also very exhausting and has its own challenges too #all labor is labor. we should be united together against the billionaires who do fuck all while profiting off us

[yourqueenb]

Why are we acting like Daphne was the one being rude and unreasonable when it was Estelle? And why is Cole just completely ignoring the fact that his wife clearly doesn’t want a child?

#choices tbb #choices the billionaires baby #choices #choices stories you play #playchoices #also ‘she’ll see reason’ tf? #am I supposed to be attracted to this PB? #cuz this is the second time Cole has disregarded and steamrolled his wife and her feelings #like am I wrong for thinking that how the LIs treat their SOs is indicative of how they’d treat MC should they get into a relationship? #am I taking fiction too seriously #I mean please i just have a really hard time ignoring something like that #it’s such a turnoff #choices app #pixelberry studios #pixelberry

#seeing idiots phrase things re:biden as 'bUt TrUmP wOuLd bE wOrSe' 'hEd dO tHe SaMe tHiNg BuT kIlL pPl hErE tOo--' #makes me feel filthy. just reading the thought process makes me feel like i bathed in blood. #remember when biden first took office&ppl (ESP ppl from places w history being torn the fuck apart by usamerican presidents+policy) #were openly trepidatious about it bc trump had gone thru 2 separate secretary of defenses (one of which was fucking mad dog mattis) #specifically bc hes a toddler who couldnt sit thru meetings about international policy #while biden already had A Lot of history that left international blood all over his fucking hands #&ppl SCREAMED about 'WUT ABOUT US???? SO YOU JUST THINK WE SHOULD ALL DIE??? YOU JUST THINK WE SHOULD LET TRUMP KILL US ALL???' #'WE'RE JUST TRYING TO SAVE OURSELVES--' #the selfishness was palpable&disgusting when it was happening&seeing ppl in real time transmit that feeling directly into #'yeah theres a genocide going on BUT THINK ABOUT WHAT WE HAVE TO GO THRU WHAT YOU THINK TRUMP WOULD BE BETTER??? #YOU WANT US ALL DEAD??? YOURE ALL SO MEAN. >:(' #makes me feel disgust that i usually reserve exclusively for pigs+billionaires. #im glad nothing ever disappears on the internet. i hope these cunts are haunted by their centrism in the times that come. #palestine will be free and when historical revisionism tries to make all these ppl feel better about themselves by downplaying #their complicity in this horror there will be no running from their own fucking record of selfishness.

[mothocean]

i am, really just fucking hoping theres gonna be more safety regulations around this kind of stuff now. and that the greek coast guard gets fucking sued. also that the submersible company gets sued. and nothing like any of these things happens ever again

#ik thats not gonna be the case but god this whole situation has not been good for my irrational-ish fear #of being told something is safe and then it turns out it really really isnt but its too late and horrible death happens #i feel no sympathy for the billionaires obvs but. can we acknowledge how fucking lucky it is that the horrble submersible #only ended up killing 5 ppl. thats still 5 ppl but it couldve been way more #like idc if a billionaire wants to die horribly they should not be allowed to drag other people down w them #they should not be allowed to have their METAL TUBE DEATH TRAP talked about POSITIVELY on a fucking SCIENCE WEBSITE THAT SHOULD KNOW BETTER #AND THEY DEFINITELY SHOULDNT BE ALLOWED TO USE IT TO TURN A GRAVESITE INTO THE WORLDS LEAST SAFE TOURIST TRAP #EVEN IF ONLY STUPID RICH PPL WILL GET ON IT #like you realize this is just the most extreme example of the kind of lack of regulation these guys get away with. like im glad the guy tha #made the thing met his horrible end with it but too many ppl don't get graced with this kind of dramatic irony #and besides maybe it should not be fucking legal to construct literal death machines even for dramatic irony #idk im tired of focusing on whether the guys had it coming for them or not its endless hell discourse #lets fucking talk abt how this whole thing should not have fucking happened in the first place #and i hope nothing like it ever happens again #if the billionaires want a horrible death i will give it to them myself and then outlaw their entire fucking existence (as billionaires) #im sorry im just fucking tired #roseflower.txt

#re: previous reblog: this is also why i don't like Anticapitalist Onboarding Rhetoric that borrows the narrative tropes of Grand Conspiracy #sorry but genuine systemic analysis is fundamentally incompatible with the image of a Secret Room full of malicious cackling puppetmasters #like is that not the WHOLE POINT..? that there are conditions under which Bad Things can perpetuate themselves absent Bad Actors..? #(like we could evaporate all Racist People with an anti racism laser tomorrow but b/c of current inequalities in income housing school etc #without actual wealth redistribution that won't actually FIX the inequality because it's entrenched enough to have become self sustaining) #idk maybe it just exists disproportionately where i've been looking but i feel like i'm seeing a huge upswing over this past year #in people who act as if the only two narratives are 'Everything Wrong is Your Own Fault' or 'Someone is Fucking With You on Purpose' #& i've felt like a crazy person for a while shouting about how leaning into the rhetoric & mentality of the second one is NOT HARMLESS #just because you point it at some person/people too powerful for you to really materially do harm to. #(introducing it under those parameters alone doesn't domesticate it! doesn't make it Safe to keep with you in your brain house!) #like i didnt Really Not Enjoy the gleeful countdowns of 'only x hrs of air left in that submarine lol' b/c of my deep love for billionaires #but i was struck by how many selfdescribed leftists really do seem to want to act as the agents of an equitable redistribution of suffering #& that just...doesn't ever lead anyone to good places. & it feels insane that i have to say that lol. but i'm right. & it doesn't.

[tittyinfinity]

damn I just realized that out of the 1600 people I follow not one of them is a swiftie. I've never unfollowed anyone for liking her either. but i assume any swiftie that followed me blocked me after i got 50k on a post calling her annoying

#.bdo #i'm not trying to act pretentious because i know there's no ethical consumption under capitalism etc #but i do think there's a difference here. she's a billionaire and you can't do that ethically. #& she has the most co2 emissions out of all celebrities #supporting her enables that unfortunately #and i just think people are getting a little too comfortable with not calling that kind of stuff out just because they enjoy music #i just feel like her fans could ban together and say something about her actions so that #1. she has no choice but to share her profits with her employees who are clearly underpaid if shes a billionaire #2. she admits that her co2 emissions aren't okay and swears off her private jet #and 3. so all celebrities know that they're not gonna have the support of the working class if they don't support us

[strawhatboy]

#so. #ana huang's books have been great but reading too much about billionaires makes me die a little inside #because they're ridiculous and completely out of touch with reality and I can't even blame the authors but anyway #I LIKE ROMANCE OK :') #fantasy books are more my thing but I need to use my brain to read them so I need more energy #but im so happy im reading again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i love fictional men idc #feel free to suggest anything you think id like (i love pathetic men and fake scenarios with NO CHANCES to happen irl)

[nomaishuttle]

i do fr need to work on differentiating between "actually middleclass" and "doesnt live paycheck to paycheck" lmao bc that is something i struggle with... obviously ik i have more in common with like. even somebody whos fr middleclass disney vacations every year. I know i have more in common with them than i do with bezos but god at least i dont have to see bezos being annoying in front of me every day KJANDJKLNLJD

#bc its like this. i obviously have way more contempt for a billionaire. obviously. but ive never met an actual billionaire yfm. and i Have #met middleclass ppl and A lot not all but a lot. are so insufferable and ikkkk not all of them or whatever but like. i constantly got shit #for being poor from middle class kids and like. ik im supposed to be class solidarity with them bc were all poor when compared to a #billionaire but goddd fucking damn they make it difficult . ik its like well the upperclass Wants the lowerclass and middleclass to be at #eachothers throats bc it means they dont pay attention to the upperclass walking over the both of them. i knowwww. but i can multitask #major in hating rich people minor in hating the middleclass... #THIS ISNT RLY RELATEDFTO THE LAST POST AT ALL i just have a lot of like. complicated feelings abt classism basicallyy. #like. i wouldnt wish poverty on anybody it fucking sucks. but as a kid i did sometimes fantasize abt swapping lives with my classmates who #had more money than me Not even bc i wanted to live their life but just so they would like. see the apartments i lived in and see the room #i shared with both of my siblings (weeman didnt exist yet lmao) and just like. look in the fridge. bc i just rly wanted ppl to get it lol.. #there was this one assignment that was like. wants vs needs and ppl kept putting needs as like. A big backyard. vacation once a year. my ow #personal bedroom etc and ik they were kids but it was like. insanely frustrating to have these kids who had like. never had to live without #Wants. yk. bc then i would just write down like. food. shelter. water. thats it lmao i even had clothes as a want instead of a need. and #they were making fun of me bc my list was so short and its like . look man i have gone without these three things on multiple occasions. yk #and now i try to be like. its good that there are ppl who have never experienced that i dont want ppl to have to experience that especially #like. that was in 4th grade lol. i was 9. i shouldnt have been worrying abt bills and stuff and none of my classmates knew anything abt tha #and thats a Good thing they shouldnt have. but theres this selfish part of me that wishes they did KANDJNS bc its so insanely isolating to #have ppl like. interrogating you abt why your shoes are so worndown or why your winter jacket is too small yk. and you cant say 'my family #cant afford better/new ones' bc they dont even understand what money is. yk. IDK. im just very sensitive abt these kinds of things KANDNW.. #perhaps a bit too oversensitive at times but yk. im working on it and im working on not being spiteful abt it bc like. yes it was isolating #but it was a good thing that the kids didnt relate to it yk. kids shouldnt relate to that and i shouldnt have felt that way bc no kid shoul #im also Ik i bring it up constantly but im still so mad abt that time my friends heard me say Yeah i have to go to court against my dad nex #wednesday . and they didnt say anything and then one of them went Ughhh my dad wont buy me the newest iphone hes buying me the newest #samsung instead But i have an iphone app that i spent 50 dollars on that wont transfer !!!!!! and then she endedup getting the iphone #anyways. sry ikk its grudge and i need to let it go but im still peeved... brinn there are people that are dying . #and also now i know that like. a lot of the other kids in my class Did understand and were just like. posturing. yk. a few of those kids #were from the same neighborhood as me lmao i was just too autistic to realize we werent supposed to be honest 💀 but yes. sry for this like #manifesto i am just thinking out loud..... well not bc this is text famously a written form of communication but we all understand. anyways

Protip for those struggling to survive on their too-small income and being hounded by charity phonecalls guilting you to donate when you've got like forty bucks to your name (or like, you're in a hospital bed on painkillers and in no condition to donate and the charity who called you growls at you and hangs up) instead of hitting up people who can actually afford to donate without starving that week or going into debt,

Just say you prefer to donate online, and then don't. Say something like anyone can call claiming to be a charity and in today's world you prefer to not give your card number to strangers over the phone. If they keep pushing you imply/outright say they sound like a scammer and hang up.

(I have this theory about the "poor people are more charitable than the wealthy" studies. Are we really more charitable or are we just more exploitable? When someone on SSI is constantly harassed and guilted to give up their last twenty dollars for the month for people who have it worse than us, is that charity or is it being shamed for being poor? I literally told a caller that I was forced to live on on a five hundred dollar per month payment and I barely had enough money to get me thru the next two weeks until the next payment, the caller told me "Oh we have people on SSI who routinely donate at least twenty dollars per month!" I was so flustered I ended up giving ten. Fuck's sake, go hit up someone who doesn't need to rely on this country's miserable pittance to just barely survive.)

#don't get me wrong i do donate WHEN I CAN. but i often can't #look i feel bad for the victims of whatever crisis they're guilting us wretched poor into donating to but i can't afford shit to survive rn #let alone afford the overdraft fees by donating money i don't have #go hit up at least a millionaire if you're in too much undeserved awe to beg from a billionaire

[starlooove]

Genuine answer tho kindaaaa because my entire point with the tim wealth thing is that even if the point about it not having much basis in canon was true (which. Lmao) it’s still gonna impact how he’s written by the writers and viewed by the fans; when it comes to writing stories a lot of people see middle class as the Relatable class which is precisely why I think those hardcore Tim Stans are pushing it so much

#im not gonna make it long bc like. if u get it u get it there’s not much u have to explain #but i am gonna say it’s very funny they don’t wanna say he’s broke #if his wealth doesn’t matter at all they could easily say he has nothing #but they’re too classist to say it #hard assumptions buuuuut im not giving plot points don’t impact character guy the benefit of the doubt #when it comes to monetary status there are implications that come with them #when it comes to the general public middle class has the most neutral implications #atp with so many convos on class consciousness and negative traits associated with the wealthy #it feels like they just don’t want Tim associated with that #imo that’s what makes him cool #the fact that he’s extremely intelligent but held back by limited world view which can cause him to fuck up his relationships (steph) #or be callous and cruel in his words (Jason when Tim was first starting as Robin) #i think him choosing to be Robin even tho he would’ve arguably been extremely successful otherwise #and choosing to have this worldview expanded in ways that he might not like (his arrogance biting him in the ass meeting ppl like Lonnie- #-learning to extend empathy and compassion in a way that might seem unnatural at first) is cooler than middle class kid picked up by #billionaire like the other 20 #plus i think him being written as the opposite of Jason was so intentional that to ignore it is stupid. not even explaining like c’mon man #but i think the parallels this creates with Bruce -did NOT have to do that shit ur life is WORSE bc ur doing that shit- are fun #like in conclusion if u wanna ignore that Tim’s rich fine whatever #but ur so boring and I’d rather watch paint dry than hear whatever you have to say about him #there’s too many bad things associated with both lower class and higher class for them to be comfy with tim in either #so they’re pushing for neutral middle #just like tim isn’t arrogant and rude at times but he’s also not a complete pushover #so he’s smart but he forgets to take care of himself #he’s not Bruce’s favorite because Bruce is so mean but he can’t be Bruce’s least favorite so he does everything for him #just bland takes on bland takes bc God forbid the rich white boy has some spunk #which is a massive disservice to his character btw. like i hate on canon Tim a lot but he’s interesting to me #it’s why takes like this don’t even piss me off or anything it’s just. so boring #evil opposite to ‘Batman is the man Bruce is the mask’ #ur so smart and profound I’d love to hear more. please tell me about how much tim loves coffee and worshipped Jason as Robin.

tbh the best decision i’ve made was to say fuck taylor swift lmao

#personal #i have felt so free lately in regards to SM/ having to be in the loop/ being aware of *everthing* #it feels nice to be on the outside….people hate swifties i have come to realize and i don’t blame them #gracie being more vocal about palestine on her ig stories has been nice to see too #another variant girlie? let it rest you’re a billionaire already breaking your own records we get it!!!
