yall this is the lowest I've ever been and I can tell cause I'm playing supernatural episode 1 again. I haven't seen supernatural in years. I stopped around season 11. it was one of my favorite and closest fandoms for a long time untll I just naturally grew out of it. and now that I'm at my lowest again, how fitting that I find comfort in sam and dean once more. dudes about as fucked up as I am lmao

anyways sorry for any supernatural spam from here on out, but it's the only thing keeping me from eating a bullet right now and I'm not even joking

Is it true that there's no animosity between you and... you know, you know who. You never talk about her in any way. I guess I'm curious. You guys seemed like really close friends and then just weren't friends at all. And there was some stuff she said that seemed very targeted at you...

I don't know if she feels any animosity toward me or not any more. Our mutual friends have said she doesn't and I take them on their word in that regard, assuming that if they have an answer for me it's because they're aware how she feels. I wouldn't know and it's not my place to put words in her mouth.

I haven't spoken to her/about her in a long time and the only time she even crosses my mind is when people bring her up to me. As for me feeling any animosity? I'll admit my feelings on her these days are complicated and way too nuance-core for people who aren't my friends to hear about but I wouldn't call them animosity in any way. I inherently want people my friends care about to live well because I care about my friends, and anyone my friends care about by proxy and I still share friends with her. I would never wish ill on people my friends care about so animosity doesn't fit into that by definition. I'd say I'm hurt more than anything and even then I've worked through a lot of it with trusted friends who have helped me deal with my emotions in a healthy way.

(Besides, my own life struggles keep me from even being able to invest time into animosity. I have to expend that energy loving my family, doing my best to support them during our struggles. And I've never been a hateful person it isn't in me. I would rather play 'Hot To Go' by Chappell Roan and teach my dad how to do the hand gestures to help him strengthen his muscles again than focus on hating anyone...)

I try not to think about her because it hurts. I often think that people forget that I'm a real person outside of her sphere, and that I wouldn't want to talk about what happened because I truly did consider her a friend for a long time. And when someone I consider a friend appears to not regard me with care any more suddenly and I don't even have closure on that... well... it hurts... A lot. Of course I never talk about it.

And I'm not stupid, I have seen some stuff she's said that I've gathered was about me. I remind myself that she has a right to vent in her own spaces and I truly mean that... it's just a shame that her own spaces have people who then have taken these things to me to show me (after all, I wouldn't have even seen these things myself if not for third-party anons going 'this u?') saying it is my own fault because I was a terribly cruel friend or my own fault for not listening to warnings about her when I had the chance and that makes me a stupid gullible bitch. You lot haven't seen some of the awful shit about me from some of her more ravenous fans and haters I've seen over the years that I've had to let roll off my back in the fear it would bring backlash - not even to me, to her. I don't want to be the cause of any hatred going to anyone.

Also I'm just not going to ever talk about the details of our fallen friendship or our fallen relationship. That's private. She might be a public person to some extent but I never was, even if I do gain some measure of small fandom for my work one day I'm just private about personal matters especially raw ones. I almost deleted this ask entirely but Idk I never stated that it bothers me when people talk to me about her from my own mouth, so I guess that's what this ramble is.

If you send me anything about Lily Orchard it will not be addressed. I am not a part of her life not even through our mutual friends. I do not know or care what's going on with her public/personal life. I haven't kept up. I will never keep up. Don't treat me as an extension of the situation because I am not in the situation. In the most plainly stated sense of the word: Leave me the Hell alone. (...pretty please.)

All I've wanted this entire time was to be left alone to process everything in a healthy, peaceful way. I'm workin' on it.

[caelusproject]

To all my US-American followers. Please don't disappear. I know the future looks dark and helplessness is a hell of an emotion. But the rest of the world sees you. We feel for you. I know you're scared but you disappearing or harming yourself in any way is exactly what they want. The world can't change without you in it.

You are worth five of those people.

Semper fucking fi.

Really is so weird to go back to DA:I and Cullen's lyrium recovery storyline and acknowledgment of trauma (for him and other companions) after Veilguard only doing the barest of telling instead of showing when it comes to those topics.

It's especially stark with Lucanis' whole Crow background and "spent a whole year imprisoned and only survived by shutting down" story. Nevermind Spite just being such a waste of a character.

If there'd been a character I would have thought would have a Leliana hardened vs softened story, it'd be him. >_>

Alright one last thought (for now) on Jen and her forcefem baby

Jen doing a special one time video for diaper reviews? Except all her reviews are centered solely around her experience of having you padded up, with little clips of you in the different diapers. For example, just you waddling or crawling around the house with the diaper exposed and the focus, or her giving you a changing, like the before and after, or you in the process of wetting 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

And Jen having you on camera to give your special "Baby's Review" except you're forced to mumble your rating through the pacifier she shoved in your mouth right before, so all the audience will see is a blushing and babbling little baby who Jen just laughs at from behind the camera

Bonus: Jen showing you off to the rest of her brand new coven??? Letting them all get to know you very up close and personal 🤭🤭🤭

-M Anon (my Jen obsession just got a million times worse 😵‍💫)

(This time sent actually on anon lol)

rahhhHHHHH!!!!

i will be her cute baby and i will enjoy every ounce of humiliation

Dunbar Amnesia Novel Philosophical Concepts--The Ones I Tried To Include and Address

Essentially, in creating it, I wanted to discuss the concepts of free will, responsibility, virtue, and memory as it relates to identity. The initial premise (as you'll discover in later chapters) is: what defines a person? Is it actions, ideas, or something else? The main question I have later is: is someone responsible for actions they commit, if they have no memory of taking these actions?

I mean to supersede the idea that it was a voluntary lack of memory, such as getting blackout drunk (one chooses to do this). In the Dunbar amnesia case, Dunbar's amnesia isn't a choice he made. Does he still have responsibility for actions that he took during this time? In order to appropriately address this question, some of the works I read/re-read included pieces on Locke's concept of free will, Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics, Scanlon's 'What We Owe To Each Other', and Rousseau's social contract. There were a few others, but these were my main ones. Arguably, some of these are more political philosophies than thought-pieces, but I would argue they're every bit as relevant.

In the question of 'what defines a person', I wanted to look at concepts of virtues. Aristotle argues that moral virtues are not inherently held, but are gained through making choices which support them (i.e. someone can be brave, but only once they've made enough 'brave' decisions that they achieve a brave character). He also makes a claim that virtues support his concept of eudaimonia, or a virtuous and fulfilling life, 'flourishing'. So then, I ask: if decisions make up who someone is, and many decisions develop their character, if someone has no memory of these decisions---does that change who they are? In the amnesia novel, I address this by Dunbar's desire to discover 'what happened' during the forgotten years. While some of it is certainly to understand the actual events that occurred, another huge part is discovering who he'd become in that missing time. After all, waking up in a plush office with his name on a plaque is something that he considers out-of-character for himself. That's the impetus for asking: "what have I become"?

Of course, his perception of himself is exactly the same as it was seven years prior, because that's what he last remembers. Is a person's being only something they perceive, or is it a sum of how others perceive them? (E.x. if I consider myself to be noble, but my actions are terrible and others see me as awful, which am I? Noble, or terrible?) The same applies in the amnesia novel: is Dunbar the person who others see him as, or does who he is exist only within his frame of reference? Initially, I argue, that he would prefer it be the former, although it's likely the latter. Personally, I subscribe to Reader Response Theory, or the idea that each piece of writing is interpreted inherently by the readers, and the meaning was always meant to exist within their interpretation (outside exclusively what the writer intended). Why not apply the same to actions, and the being of a person? Every action has the ability to be interpreted by others, and although intentions are highly relevant (see: Scanlon), who we are as people is at least somewhat defined through how others see us.

In matters of memory, amnesia challenges the fundamental idea that you're made up of your actions, or that you're defined by how others see you. It suggests that because you still have a sense of self and a being, even if you cannot remember your actions for, say, the last seven years, something is still making up you. A question: if you cannot remember the virtuous actions you took, are you still a virtuous person? Is part of what made you virtuous the fact that you had the capacity to take those actions? If people perceive you as having virtue but you can't remember being virtuous, does it still count? These questions are not answered, but I do argue in the novel that there's a greater essence that defines you, and it lies in the decisions you make and determine in the present--outside of external or past judgements and decisions.

As an aside that's a little bit further apart from my whole essay-portion here, I've intended different characters to have specific philosophical viewpoints. The Clevinger/Dunbar line-up has a few different dichotomies that I think enhance the plot if you read the characters as adhering to these different principles, whether knowingly or not. While I'd like to say that at least one of them follows deontology (actually... hm. I'm going to go ahead and say Clevinger likes to think he's a deontologist), I know that Dunbar at the very least is a consequentialist (NOT subscribing to utilitarianism). I think that's very relevant for him in the amnesia novel, as it explains why he experiences cognitive dissonance between the actions he took that he can't remember and the consequences of these actions.

Already, you have their line-up between idealistic optimism/nihilistic pessimism, deontology/consequentialism, existentialism/pragmatism, and a few others. The amnesia novel almost serves as a thought experiment in regard to these, and the benefit to having characters with different moral structures allows for debate and evaluation of the situations from multiple philosophical perspectives.

Very amused that people who don't know me at all read apparently half of what I posted earlier on I/P and decided my take that "I don't support any nation state and think we should do away with all of them but since this is the system we currently have it's decidedly antisemitic to single out Israel as The One To Destroy Above All Others and we should instead support peace and safety for both Israelis and Palestinians" is equivalent to "genocide is good actually." Like I know this is tumblr, aka the "piss on the poor" reading comprehension website but also like, idk, maybe learn to read before yelling at random people online and accusing them of supporting genocide? Also for the record, it's *really fucking weird and antisemitic* to yell at random Jews on the internet and accuse them of supporting genocide because they have Opinions You Personally Disagree With.

You can, in fact, simply block people who's takes you don't like. It's free! And easy! You hit the three dots at the top of the post, it opens a drop down menu and you select "block". Now the person who you think has Bad and Evil Opinions™️ will never show up in tags for you again! Problem solved! They might, unfortunately, show up on your dashboard if someone you follow reblogs something they posted or added to, because tumblr is slightly broken in that regard, but you will be saved from their opinions in tags. And they won't be able to interact with you! And there's even a handy feature you can use to hide *all* content they've ever made/posted, even stuff you're dearly beloved mutual who thinks they're cool reblogs. You just, blacklist the username. Now they will show up as filtered content and you have to manually unhide any post that mentions their username in any way, saving you from the Opinions You Don't Like. And they're free to continue *their* internet experience without you yelling at them for tagging things with something that is a general filter/sort/information tag simply because *you* think their opinions are Bad and Don't Belong There.
