So I ended up going into more detail about Kitty in my tags, but then I thought I'd include this part in the post proper because it bears repeating:

As an autistic Trans queer nerd, it has been my experience that my unbridled enthusiasm for all things I love - including Pokémon and skipping and shipping and puppies and Steven Universe and DuckTales 2017 and the list goes on - has absolutely gotten me more good pussy and incredible wonderful romance than it has lost me in my lifetime.

I mean it i am so dead serious that tamping down on your love and enthusiasm for life in order to seem more "adult" is INCREDIBLY common and it is a TRAP! A big grey and beige, box-shaped, joy-crushing, everything-a-child-is-afraid-to-grow-into trap!!!!

Like, yes, maybe allistic cishet people are largely bemused by me - they think I'm something of a novelty with my loud laugh and my infodumps and my intense passion for the things I enjoy - but the queer autistics desire me carnally! And I them! We infodump TOGETHER! Even when I don't share their love of something, what bliss to see how happy they are! And who else would want to work with me to create an elaborate roleplay storyline involving swordfights and character development?? Autistics and queers, that's who!!!

Also, being loudly and unapologetically myself is why I have such a wonderful partner of nearly 10 years now! That is the exact thing that first attracted her to me romantically, and it is the thing that most often has her looking at me like a big ol' sap!

For example, when she was a kid, she hid her love of Pokemon because she was convinced it would ostracize her. When I tell her now about my Pokemon go PVP battle strategy, she smiles SO BIG because she says she never dreamed of having a partner who would say things like that! Also, she thinks nerds are hot, which is great news for me!

Anyway, my point here is that I hope you never have to dull the shine of your life's joy by tamping down on the things you love - because although there are people who will infantilize you for it because they are fools, there are many MANY people who will love and desire you specifically because you don't do that!

I think one of the reasons I get annoyed with Kitty being infantilised is because exactly the same thing happens to me in real life.

So, I (apparently) look a lot younger than my actual age. I constantly get told that. I’ve also kept a lot of my interests from when I was a child, or have interests that are seen as “childish” (Pokémon, Horrible Histories, etc.).

The result is, I often get treated like a kid, even by people younger than me. People will actually apologise to me if they happen to swear/make a dirty joke and notice that I’m in the room. I can never understand why, it happens even when I laugh at the jokes.

I’m an adult. I don’t know how to make people take me seriously without changing myself and trying to act like an adult “should be”. I don’t want to give up my interests, to lose the enthusiasm I have for them.

Kitty is canonically an adult (her father said that she had come of age), but because of the way she acts, people point at her and are like “that’s a child”. People say that she’s not allowed to have a romantic/sexual relationship, because she’s just a little girl.

At the same time, Kitty reads smutty romance novels, she’s clearly very interested in sex. She can show surprising maturity at times, like when she was pretending to be Thomas’ PR agent. But still, people treat her like a kid because of her optimism and naivety.

Kitty wants romance. She wants sex. Why shouldn’t she be allowed to have those things if she wants them?

I often worry that no one will ever take me seriously enough to be attracted to me, and that I won’t be able to experience romance or sex because of that. Seeing the way people in the fandom talk about Kitty just makes those insecurities even worse.

I GOT YOU BECAUSE THEY GOT ME!!

From the perspective of an Oklahoman, I have a lot of reasons why I like it:

A. California and Oklahoma don't outright *hate* each other, which is more then I can say for a lot of 'enemies' to lovers ships in the fandom. I mean there is the whole 'south vs California' thing but people ship Texicali so that doesn't matter all that much

B. It's plausible!(?) Coming from personal experience, there's no bonding agent like mutual hatred, and hatred there is. A common Calihoma headcanon that makes this make more sense is that they started talking to each other to vent about Texas, and it spiraled from there, (though plots like that aren't everyone's cup of tea.)

C. For the people interested in history of states only, dig into the goldrush/dust bowl history between the actual state of Oklahoma and California, it's actually really interesting! (Fun fact, the word 'Okie' was a derogatory term for Oklahomans that were migrating to California during the gold rush (? IDK I need to brush up on that it's been a while))

Overall,there's more to it than just this and I'm very new to this ship as well, but there's real chemistry there that's just untouched potential I guess. Also sorry for writing like 4-5 paragraphs of shit in your replies :,D

someone get me into calihoma or whatever its called. i’ve tried reading it but i just don’t understand how it’s became a “big” thing. im a multishipper and don’t care when it comes to ships (even texacali. i know. shocker). i may not read it much or look for it but i’ll stan for it if it’s good- i just- don’t understand? the only part i understand about calihoma is that their shipped together because they both hate texas. (i think?)

someone convert me to the calihoma ways

(i’ll always be a yorkcali shipper though, so.)

THANK YOU, TUMBLR

hello everyone! if you’re seeing this, it’s because i (dia) am no longer going to be in tumblr starting from today onwards. it was a difficult decision to make, but for a multitude of reasons. i feel like I’ve started to become more detached from tumblr as a whole, and it’s not anyone’s fault in particularly, but writing here doesn’t bring me the same joy as it used to, and I’ve lost a lot of motivation for it over the time I’ve been here but especially because of all the hiatuses i had to take for uni. which brings me to my next point, but this blog was my safe space, but now I’ve been finding new ways to cope with everything, and I’ve started to focus more on my life irl. but the main reason is just because i’m getting busier and even if I’m on a break right now, next year is going to be one of the most important years of my life, and i think it’s best that i get rid of all my distractions—which unfortunately includes writing. but that being said, i’m going to miss all the amazing people i’ve met here on this site, and thank you to all th people who have continuously shown me love and support! I’ll always remember your kindness, as they’re the things that encourage me to be at my best even when I feel low. I hope you will also receive the same love and compassion that you’ve shown me, and I’m forever grateful for the chance offering you at least okce in my life—and damn this makes me emotional just writing this. thank you to all my readers who have been on mila’s journey to witness her grow!! even tho i won’t be writing for her anymore, I’m glad that while I did, people were able to enjoy her stories as much as I enjoyed writing them. i’ll be leaving this blog (enmi-land) in the hands of my lovely wifey selene to decide what to do with, but otherwise I’ll be deactivating my main accounts to make sure i stay away. selene you already know how grateful I am to you but thank you again for everything, and for putting up with babysitting this blog for me when i disappear. I leave it all to you to do what you wish with it!! but feel free to save all the fics I’ve written before the time ever comes where all of them will be deleted for good. I’m sorry I couldn’t deliver on a lot of the requests and story ideas that I got your hopes up for—but maybe one day in the future, when I’ve worked out the things I want to, I’ll have the urge to come back and revisit my once favourite hobby. but until then—I’ll be signing out with this final note! ^^

thank you for everything! —love, dia
