眠れない・Can't Sleep
眠れない。2時間だけ寝て急に目を覚ました。嵐が来た?猫が遊んでいる?子供が泣いている?トイレに行きたい?いいえ。ただ目を覚まして眠れない。
Can't sleep. I slept about two hours but suddenly woke up. Is the storm here? Is my cat playing around? Is my kid crying? Do I need to go pee? Nope. I just woke up and can't sleep.
明日、しなければならないことが多い。リビングを片付ける、お土産を買う、空港行きバスの時間を確認する。心配も多い。娘は日本語がまだまだ足りない。台風はいつ来る?したいことも多い。姉に電話したい。絵を描きたい。娘のハロウィーン仮装を作りたい。自分のハロウィーン仮装も作りたい。あっ、そうね。昨日、スーパーに行ったのに、あれを買うのを忘れた。頭がうるさいね。眠れない。
I have a lot of things to do tomorrow. I need to clean up the living room, buy some souvenirs, check the airport bus schedule. I have a lot of things to worry about. My daughter still needs to learn more Japanese. When will the typhoon finally get here? I want to call my sister. I want to do some art. I want to make my daughter's Halloween costume. I want to make my own costume. Oh, right. I forgot to get something when I went to the grocery store yesterday. My head is too noisy. Can't sleep.
夫は今どこにいる?飛行機に乗ってヨーロッパに飛んでいるのを知っているけど、今どこにいる?ふむ、夜9時出発だったら、多分中国の上にいるだろう。夫は寝ているかな。私は眠れない。
Where's my husband now? I know he's on a flight to Europe, but where is he now? Hmm, he left around 9pm, so he's probably somewhere over China by now. I bet he's sleeping. I can't sleep.
アメリカの大統領の選挙について考えたくないね。あの人が勝ったらどうする。嫌だ、絶対嫌だ。勝つわけがないだろう。8年前もそう思ったが、結局勝った。4年前に負けたから、今回も負けるだろう。負けて欲しい。あの人が負けても、アメリカに帰りたくない。家族に会いたくても、アメリカに帰りたくない。眠れない。
I don't want to think about the upcoming presidential election in the US. If that guy wins, what will I do? Awful. Totally awful. There's no way he can win. 8 years ago we thought that too, but in the end he won. He lost 4 years ago, so he's definitely going to lose this time, right? I hope so. Even if he loses, though, I don't want to go back to the US. Even if I want to see my family, I don't want to go back. Can't sleep.
猫は本当に可愛いよね。今飼っている猫が世界一かもしれない。耳の形がいいし、鼻が茶色くて可愛いし、目の色が素晴らしいし…この猫が大好き。昔飼っていた猫もとてもいい子だった。ナタリーちゃん。初めてのペットで本当に良かった。喉頭の問題のせいで、ナタリーの「ニャー」が「ギャー」になった。いつも一緒に寝て、朝に起こしてくれた。兄妹3人で森に遊びに行った時、ナタリーも一緒に行った。ある冬、ナタリーが凍った池に歩いている時、氷が割れた。ナタリーが冷たい池に落ちて、私に救われた。よどんで臭い池に落ちたナタリーをコートの中に入れてあたためた。ナタリーのいい思い出のおかげで、眠くなってきた。
Cats are so cute. The cat I have now just may be the best in the world. Cute-shaped ears, cute brown nose, beautiful eyes... I love this cat. I had a great cat when I was a kid, too. Natalie. I'm so glad she was my first pet. She had some problem with her voice box, so her "meow" was more like "gaa." She always slept with me and woke me up in the morning. When my siblings and I went to play in the woods, she often came with us. One winter, Natalie was talking on a frozen pond when the ice broke. Natalie fell into the cold water, but I quickly saved her. She was so stinky from the stagnant pond water, but I stuffed her inside my coat to warm her back up. Thanks to these sweet memories of Natalie, I'm feeling a bit sleepy.

To add my own experience to this: I have a broken bone in my foot, part of that bone split off and now just, chills at the base of my little toe on the side of my foot.
I also have a cracked knee cap. On the same leg.
I work full time, pay ONE PAYCHECK out of TWO for the month in rent, the other one goes to bills, household expenses etc.
I don't have enough to even t h i n k about healthcare after everything.
The last two years I've been treating it myself because I can not afford to miss work long enough to have the surgeries and recover to a point I can go back to work - I would have to go back to work within a week or less in order to have money to pay bills AND make the medical payments.
I'm not in any sort of debt and I never plan to be because I can't afford to be.
Abolish for-profit health care insurance.

hold on, I saw the tags of the tattoo post. covid happened in Peter's universe?????
So my Hunt!Peter's fangs are NOT retractable, though @thistleraven's Peter's fangs absolutely are!
Peter has spent over a decade basically keeping his mouth closed. He's (in)famous for his closed-lipped smiles and pursed grins. When he does crack a laugh, it's usually either laughing through his nose or on the extremely rare occasion, behind his hand. When he eats, it's in tiny bites, etc. etc.
When Peter gets excited (adrenaline/arousal/etc.), and his fangs start producing venom, he usually starts talking through his teeth and swallowing a lot.
Most people (including Wade) don't consider the closed-mouth stuff to be anything weird. Some people have tics or quirks that don't mean anything. And Peter knows better than to call attention to it. (He misses COVID -a totally normal thing to say- but wearing a face-mask on the reg is just asking for people to try and peek under it.)
Spidey on the other hand, is MUCH more expressive. Something about the weight of the mask on his head is psychologically freeing. However, sometimes habits bleed through and Spidey ends up doing something that gives Wade extreme deja vu.
#hunting!spider lore#hunting!spider art#spiderman#deadpool#if anyone ask he says he's insecure about his teeth (which is true) (prison dental care isn't the best!) (yay excuse!)#Making Peter crack a massive smile is on Wade's christmas list#“outside of the tragedy of millions dying covid was great” peter#he misses the face masks so bad but he knows if he wears one it'll be like screaming LOOK AT MY FACE especially for someone like wade#Peter is the king of 'white guy smile' not a lip to be found#Peter: open my mouth to laugh??? like a SLUT!??!?!#Wade: “Are you trying out for America's best ventriloquist like????”

Consider Yelan's facial expression to be my own in reaction to opinions shared on both X and Tumblr, and I guess I'm in the minority of the 'loud ones', but I'm pretty excited for Natlan since that trailer, actually. The previous teasers left me a little 'eh', but this definitely got my hopes back up, and I'm back in the right spirits for it (and ready to catch some Pokémon.)
Now I wouldn't be me if I didn't touch on the salt that I've seen scattered across the dash, so here I go. Listen, I read people's objections and I see what you're all aiming at, but in that light want to note that it's often incredibly easy to point fingers (arguably too much so) at others while being, quite honestly, hopefully rather aware that many of our own countries, cultures, and its populations across the board (and no, I'm not excluding anyone here) would likely be just as easily guilty as MHY is with these things. And no, I'm not blindly defending them, but I also won't point fingers at only one without pointing them everywhere else as well, including those you might think would 'never do such things', because I'm absolutely certain that they would. /continues on in the tags.
#we all wear biased lenses. and no-- 'informing yourself through social media' doesn't make you aware of how cultures work/look.#people informing themselves through social media is the /worst trend/ that the 2000/2010s have ever brought us. it's insane.#i'm sorry i'm also very tired of people deciding who are minorities and when. and who is allowed to 'get away with things' and who aren't.#and who is guilty and who isn't. and how “everyone is supposed to do everything right” when most people don't even know...#how the culture of their neighboring country genuinely looks outside of simple stereotypes (and usually only bad ones).#we also need to ultimately realize that mhy is chinese. it has (uniquely) gotten a lot of praise for its presentation of japanese culture.#(from what i hear) which is incredibly rare for a chinese company (and others). and then...#it's doing cultures further away from its own less justice. it didn't exactly do mondstadt great. it played into stereotypes.#and then combined them from multiple cultures. same with fontaine. it played into stereotypes /yet again/ in the same way the west does it.#and not just stereotypes from one country and culture. but /several/. but do most people who aren't familiar with those cultures know this?#no. they don't. and why would they? look at even just the west. europe and north america think that they're similar. /they are so not/.#if WE can't/won't even get it right. and yet we pretend to every damned day; why are we condemning a country halfway across the globe?#and also no-- i don't think latam or africa would portray china properly. or france. or the states.#... but you know what all this'll still do? cause people to look up and go 'hey this is so cool-- i want to know the inspiration'.#and people will still look into it. and people will learn.#and people will be drawn to them in life outside of their homes. or at least the ones who want to touch grass. and maybe even foreign grass#sanity knows i've looked infinitely more into chinese culture and customs because of liyue than ever before. with a much higher...#interest than i've ever admittedly had in regards to china. /ever/. just like i've had other games do the same for other cultures...#way across the globe.#[ salt. ] should i be quieter next time? / no. no… it's fine. children don't learn unless you shout at them.#[ out of character. ] don't bend or water it down. don't try to make it logical. rather: follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.

actually On Your Feet gave us two good things (well. three if you like Realize which I do). Kohane's "it's frustrating" line and the great crack fic idea of Vivid Bad Squad getting cancelled online for skipping school to yell at The Kotaki Taiga as he was about to go back to America.
#no because. he went there to continue radder's dream yeah? the one about becoming world successful musicians#and they had a record label for a bit. they were definitely going to make it at least somewhat.#so we can assume taiga is at the very least a semi well known musician yeah?#one that someone about to either leave or enter japan might know about. who will see this musician they enjoy#being shouted at by a high school girl in her school uniform about how they will surpass him or something along those lines#with three other kids (in uniform from a different school) standing behind her#and then going onto sekai universe twitter to post about it and the taiga kotaki fans taking it by storm#taiga gets off the plane in america and finds he's trending and it's because people are making fun of a blurry picture of his ex pupil#meanwhile vivid bad squad just don't know because it was contained entirely on twitter and.#be honest can you see any of them having twitter because i can't. an maybe but akito doesn't have time for social media and toya is toya#and kohane is a tumblr girlie if i've ever seen one#however it does give the great concept of someone else seeing it and debating if they should say anything#because mmj definitely has an official account they could have seen it on and also there's ena shinonome and mizuki akiyama#but anyway this also means when they do put on the event to surpass rad weekend (or whatever their goal ends up being)#there will be a crowd of people looking at it and going “isn't that the group of kids that twitter made fun of ages ago?”#and then taiga kotaki stans on sekai universe twitter will be stunned because they did in fact surpass him#if it wasn't for the gcses i would write this but alas. enjoy my weird thoughts#bagel's rambles#project sekai#i am scared to main tag this one but. fuck it we ball

I know that West Coast Avengers ended like 6 years ago and the Watts siblings have barely been in anything sense, but I keep seeing people on Twit listing them among Black mutants/X-Men characters and um. I'm sorry to rain on your parade but they are not and have never been X-Men characters and are officially listed as human mutates. No X-genes here.
#I just.... love and light but non-X really do not need to be pulled into the X-Men ensemble. They don't benefit from it.#If you want to see more of Johnny and Ramone that's great! But the answer isn't making them mutants#it's letting people actually write good Hawkeye and/or America Chavez books for once

Hi! I'm interested in working through the Hatchet field stuff while I'm on break. Is there a recommended viewing order? Or can I jump in anywhere?
ahahaaaa i am SO SORRY I am just now seeing this. in my defense i caught covid about the time you sent this (and also infected my mom who does NOT do sick well) buttt if you're still looking,
tbh you can start anywhere, because while they're all related, they aren't connected--like you'll appreciate certain jokes and callbacks, but in that way I guess it's like an anthology.
Technically, the first musical is The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals. If you know someone who doesn't like musicals, they might actually like this one (PROMISE ME YOU'LL THINK ABOUT THE IMPLICATIONS) It's the first introduction to Hatchetfield and there are some recurring characters in the next musical, which is Black Friday. It is about Black Friday and consumerism and the amazing line "I've met god. he had nothing nice to say about you" BITCH OMG. The most recent musical is Nerdy Prudes Must Die, and honestly imo it has the least connections to the first two, so you could probably start with that one if you wanted--again, you'll appreciate some jokes more if you've seen the other two. It does also have more Lore, but I still think you'd be fine not knowing anything about it. I don't know that much about it and it was still good, because--
---there's a whole series of web-icals? Social Distance Musicals? Whatever, it's called Nightmare Time and they dive deeper into the lore of Hatchetfield and I've never managed to watch more than the opening number of the first one (it's a sound quality issue, i just need to watch it on a laptop or something) but look to be really cool and interesting and maybe deal with the same Hatchetfield? Because the Hatchetfield in each of the musicals is...not the same one. Or it is, but different timelines. Or different dimensions. Something. I think Nightmare Time does more into that.
Basically, you could watch them all as standalones, there's not really a plot that goes through all three of them, but characters and concepts that do.
But that's the order I'd do them in. From a theatre nerd standpoint, it's also really cool to see how they've evolved musically. Just technically with how they're putting numbers together and adding vocal layers. NPMD has a few songs that i would LOVE to see the sheet music for so I could try and figure out who is singing what. Honestly the best comparison I can make is "Wait For It" from Hamilton.
Anyway I hope you enjoy them!!! If you want to shout opinions at me i am here for that :)
#the guy who didn't like musicals#nerdy prudes must die#black friday musical#black friday was my favorite until npmd#a bully singing about he knows he's going to peak in high school? unparalleled#a song about imposter syndrome?#but then black friday has ;monsters and men' which is one of my favorite songs in a musical maybe ever#and also black friday which is heartrending#and tgwdlm has 'working boys' and 'america is great again' or w/e the actual title is#anyway i have feelings about the quality of these musicals#i think they are just as deep and musically complex as hamilton#i think they should be more well known than they are#i think they should be used in theatre classes in colleges#just the very nature of how they SHOULD be performed to achieve the end goal#is not something possible on broadway. just logistically#broadway isn't meant for epic theatre. epic the movement not the scale#'sarge are you saying any one of these musicals is better than wicked?' what of it#and i love wicked!#look starkid could do broadway but broadway couldn't do starkid#hatchetfield? more like hatchetFEELS

I haven't actually followed the strips in ages and only see bits in pieces pop up now and then, but does Matthew call Arthur an older brother? I remember Matthew was the one taking care of Arthur when he fell apart after Alfred left but then there are times where they don't seem very close at all? Alfred and Matthew in fanon are usually portrayed as having a very close friendship while canon has the more typical 'no one else knows how to piss me off like you do' sibling relationship.
Ooooh yeah let's get our sources out for this one lads. Except not the April Fools'/Halloween Specials I'm too tirrrreeeed and I genuinely don't think there's anything in them regardless. Please excuse odd image formatting - go follow the links to read the strips in their full context!
The very early strips from like 2011 England and Canada did not have much of a relationship at all, but then we got a few Canada focused strips in like 2015 ish which kind of shed some light on what their dynamic is.
I can only find three references to Arthur being a father - and that's in the strip's title, not actually anything anyone says. Otherwise it's kind of implied with the toy bear metaphor but even then...
Hetalia World Stars Chapter 193; Hetalia World Stars Chapter 204
The other is - of course - from Cleaning Out the Storage. Thanks Alfred for that one. It still isn't the F word but whatever...
Cleaning out the Storage
In the strips set in the modern day, Canada just calls England England (or jackass in his head in one of the older strips... which is fair). Canada has never called England big brother, instead consistently calling Arthur Mr England.
Hetalia World Stars Chapter 196; Fly Canada Fly (Also 'I'll leave the caring of his heart to you' WAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH T_T)
It's the same for Oz, who hasn't even said England's name yet, but it's harder to say what he thinks of his relationship to England him since A) he's far more informal in his manner of speaking and B) has far fewer appearances.
However, they still are family I think even in modern day? I can only do logic by association here really. Canada and England explicitly call each other family when Mattie is a baby as well as some of the 19th century strips too. England getting custody has him say: 'from now on I'll be your family' and Canada gets very excited at the thought of a family.
Hetalia World Stars Chapter 192
Matt and Alfred are called brothers (more than even) far more consistently.
Fly Canada Fly; Hetalia World Stars Chapter 199; Hetalia World Stars Chapter 178;
When Canada is introduced to Australia, England says that he wanted to introduce the newest member of their family to him. He's defined as a 'sort of' younger brother.
Hetalia World Stars Chapter 201 (I like how Arthur tells Oz off - not because he's wrong but because it's rude... poor Canada...)
Zee is the blessed exception! He calls both England and Canada big brother fairly consistently.
Hetalia World Stars Chapter 269; Hetalia World Stars Chapter 414; Hetalia World Stars Chapter 227;
Mattie has, as far as I can recall, never had the B word come from his mouth regarding to Arthur. He does however refer to him as family.
Hetalia World Stars Chapter 181
So you have Matthew who apparently fine with calling Arthur the equivalent of Sir, Zee who merrily calls both Big Brother, and Arthur who doesn't correct the boys either way (extrapolate what you will from that insecurities all around methinks). And yet Arthur and Matthew don't refer to each other as siblings in return. Arthur doesn't call anyone his brothers aside from Wales, NI and Scot.
And Alfred. Which ended badly so... that kind of tracks actually. Like literally Arthur rejects anything too informal because it like... triggers him??? Or something. Trauma flashbacks right here.
The Battle for America
So one sided familial relationships all around??? I think the more likely answer is Matthew and Arthur are simply less open with those terms than say Alfred was or Zee is; I assume the translation from Japanese is much a term of endearment as it is an actual declaration of relation.
So, in some ways Matthew and Arthur's relationship is not the same situation as whatever Alfred and Arthur have going on, as there's no explicit on page declaration of 'I'm not your little brother' like we got from Alfred or 'It's not like that at all' from Arthur (that strip in Africa where that soldier says he can't believe they're related and they both say no they aren't [in their own ways]), so until then... Schrödinger Sibling.
I quite like that they don't really put a name to it. It just is. They're family, sure, but beyond that... shrug. And that thing (cough cough colonialism) can't really be boiled down to one term. Everyone's relations are in such flux and beyond just one word to define it.
#q&a#hws england#hws america#hws canada#hws new zealand#hws australia#the great 'is Arthur a dad/big brother' debate#answer: he really isn't anyone's dad honest#and half the time he isn't anyone's brother either either unless the person likes using terms of endearment#he's *family* sure#but no-one save Zee is actually calling him that#canon#op

So I'm really into genealogy and have been for a few years now and I'm blessed with being really good with names and dates etc. So in conversation I can remember like a ridiculous amount of:
Jane Doe Smith Johnson
b. 1805 Tennessee d. 1879 Missouri
Married 1828 to John Patrick Johnson. Had five children. Died of TB
Etc etc
And that's cool enough apparently but I've mostly been using it for
A. Making up bullshit but real sounding names for stuff (i.e my name is Emily Stewart, Grace Kolár, etc). The point is that they're normal sounding and varied.
B. Having a bizarre frame of reference for historical events. Like "oh [small town],[state] 1942 had [random] event happen? My 1st cousin 4x removed got married there that year, small world!"
It's so dumb, like I'll read about some historical event from my area (where I've had family in the vicinity of since the 1840s) and I'll link up the time frame in my head and be like hmm... I wonder what 3rd great aunt Helen thought about that happening next door to her church.
#anyways im haunted by my ansesters and their lives#and driven actually crazy when i hit a dead end until ive solved it#like if i dont figure out credibly who my 3rd great grandfather's parents are soon im genuinely going to lose touch I'm serious.#i realized the other day that id been 'investigateing' it since Jan 2021 DO YOU KNOW HOW DIFFERENT MY LIFE IS COMPARED TO THEN?!#and I'm not like casual.. I am multiple times a week searching the LoC as well as physical genealogical libraries for records#it lives in my brain like a tumor#he was born in 1857 in 'western' America this isn't fog of shit#its goddanm out there!#part of the obsession is because this particular ancestor is where my surname came from#he's my paternal paternal paternal grandfather.. yea... I'm just like curious as to specifically where my surname originated#sometimes especially on my mom's side I can track this shit down to a specific small european towns and I can find neat historical stuff#but this guy is just a fucking mystery#he appears in Oklahoma in the 1870s has like 15 children and then offs himself after losing money gambling#oh my god im actually ranting#and I guess it bugs me more than others because he has a very prominent newspaper trail#there are tons and tons of mentions of this guy#he has a long ass obituary but nobody ever fucking mentions where he came from other than like vague ass statements#his obituaries literally contradict each other too#I have searched everywhere for any misspelling of this guy's name#but his name is very easy to spell it's freaking William and the last name is very easy as well its a third person singular verb#ugh#anyways#ive cooled off#geneology#is interesting as fuck honestly

sometimes i wonder if rocco had successfully killed carlo and eddie, would clemente be fucked or not
#mostly a rhetorical question#like both vinci n rocco is agaisnt selling drugs#it'd be funny if not & clemente lived in peace#anyway always wondered like mr matollini what is even ur political programm#like carlo in 1933 is so “make america (<- crime family) great again” in my eyes. what is rocco's offer 😭#make falcone family sicilian again tf? (in my delusional head he isn't even sicilian. not even fully italian <- but im still not sure)

#not wrong#if we look at the history of america#from the ratification of the constitution to now#the vast majority of significant change has been a result of voting/political action#not violence#and this isn't to say that i think political violence is unacceptable#on the contrary i think it has a role to play#but this idea that you can only do one or the other is silly#and even if it was the case that you could do one#voting has proven to be infinitely more effective#i think most people's opposition to voting is largely aesthetic#they feel like they're too cool to vote because voting is lame and it's for squares#which is why re-ennobling voting is an important part of my Great Task#these people (edgy communists and stuff) don't actually want power#they just want to larp as revolutionaries

It's like when someone says something that you don't agree with but don't know specific facts to really be able to disagree (?) and also do not want to get into a debate
#I have had 2 people now in the past year say positive stuff about america (US specifically) that makes it sound like it's#still the ideal 'american dream' type place. And I think maybe perhaps that isn't true??#Specifically one of these was about tuition for university in the US and I was told that even though it's so high#they get paid more than almost everywhere else for the same job so it evens out with being able to pay it off after graduating#And I was like. I think maybe that is not true?? There is a big student debt problem there??#And also being like saying Canada isn't great right now because rents are so high from being bought for vacation rentals and businesses#and with grocery costs being insanely high. And like yes but also that is the exact same in the US too?? And also many many many other#places??#Not trying to hate on the US but what I'm saying is that apparently the 'american dream' mindset still seems to be true in some people's#minds and I am like. I think perhaps Not. Perchance

Sometimes I read post about things that happens in USA like how much it cost deliver a baby in a hospital, or the number of school shooting, or the laws about not teaching about Gay People or Gender Identity or Period, or the reciting a patriotic song each morning in school, or some other shitty facts, and each time I have this realization like "Wait you guys actually live like that ? This is not a joke ? It's not even exaggerated ?? This is your daily life ??? HOW ARE YOU STILL ALIVE OH MY GODS ARE Y'ALL OKAY ???" (the answer is obviously No)
It's maybe because I don't pay much attention about news in my country (I know it's not joyful but I don't think it's THAT bad) cause it makes me really depressed, and it might be because USA is way more transparent about everything that happens, but for real, what the fuck.
#still France isn't actually great I know it#last thing I learnt is that long dress are now officially forbidden in school#because islamophobia#so yeah we're nlt the nicest country to live in#but still we're not USA#you guys have it so much worse#I don't know how you're holding on#i genuinely wish you good luck#and I hope things will get better someday#usa#non american#wtf america#ps: by “THAT bad” I mean USA-level of awful
