German punctuality means everyone is on time except the fucking train. Except that one time you have to catch the train and it leaves right in front of your eyes. Two minutes early! Fucking gotta love this place.
#there are times I hate it here#I really wanna get my driver‘s license but I’m holding off until I have 100% confirmation that I can stay here#cause I’m not paying €2000 when honestly I have my American license and had that one since 2008#with my renewal expiring in 2030#I’m also still not sure if I want to stay here#the benefits don’t always outweigh the bureaucratic hell this country is#and I’m simply not making any friends here#I’m really not sure if coming here was a mistake#I know I know I gotta give it time#but honestly#I can part with everything I have and live with very little and maybe I should’ve done that#maybe I should’ve tossed everything and start somewhere where no one knows me#I don’t know#I just know I feel more lost here than back in Hawaii#and maybe that makes me ungrateful#to what I have but I am very VERY miserable here and I know it’s not just an attitude issue or me#I feel lost and alone and just don’t care for anything here other than my sister.

Where’s the ‘Ireland is the white leftist’s Mecca’ post? That was a good post.
#ra speaks#personal#I’m sure ppl more knowledgeable and articulate than me have said it before#but it truly is a little sickening to see the country held up as some gold standard and it’s people utterly infallible#all because they’re the de facto example of (white) people gaining sovereignty from their (white) colonizers through violence#(including terrorism) so you have these (usually usamerican) white ppl who love to identify w the Irish struggle for independence#but to the point of fetishizing it. stripping it from its (white European) context. and outright ignoring it’s still lingering effects#like I get it there are a lot of Irish who do get the colonization struggle because they lived it! but they also lived it#in a very different way than most other colonized peoples (who are not white)#also I just think Ireland (as a government) has not done as much as it could be doing for Palestine in the EU/UN spheres so. ¯\ _(ツ)_/¯#idk what my point was. putting a culture or people on a pedestal as an ideal never ends well.

Since Nintendo is releasing a remaster of Donkey Kong Country Returns for the the Switch, I SINCERELY hope that they make a remaster of another beloved Donkey Kong game from my childhood 😭❤️
#NINTENDO PLEASE#i’m literally begging you#i was like 11 when donkey kong country returns came out for the Wii#and my brothers and i played the shit out of it#none of us were actually any good at it but we still managed to beat the game somehow lol#BUT donkey kong jungle beat holds a more special place in my heart#more so than dk country returns#solely because it was the first donkey kong game we played on our Wii as little kids and i have more memories of that game for some reason#we weren’t good at that game either but it was still one of our absolute favorites#i will actually cry if Nintendo actually remasters this game one day#donkey kong jungle beat my beloved

#i’ve been visiting my parents for the past couple of weeks and now i’m back in my apartment and i always hate the first few days back#i moved to a different country a long time ago but the older they get the more guilt i feel for not living close to support them#anyway: hello tumblr my safety blanket my little hideaway from reality <3 i’ll probably be here even more than usual while i get used to#being back home/away from home#leaving home to go home and then. leaving that home to go back home#is the strangest mindfuck and never gets easier#personal

re: lrb straight up as much as i wanna say marry superman i don’t think i could. bc i feel like in this equation he genuinely likes you and i am very fond of him but not like that. he’s one of the last people on earth whose heart i wanna break but it’s unavoidable. and i haven’t seen much of diana but i feel like if it wasn’t working out i could be like imma level w you i’m pretty sure i’m gay. and she’d take it pretty well and we could get a normal divorce. i do have to kill batman though that’s the correct option always
#right like you see where i’m coming from you have a little one night stand w a cute country boy and everything is fine#you marry him and it goes poorly and everything is not fine#admittedly i mostly only know him from being in batman books#bc that’s all i’ve really read hence my knowing diana barely at all#but i’m not gonna kill her and also i feel like we would both know she can do way better than me#‘so can clark’ OBVIOUSLY so can clark but i just feel like he’s the type of guy to genuinely fall for you in a fmk situation#if you’re marrying him#this is like the biggest red flag i’ve ever posted maybe ‘i would have to divorce superman’ but like i would#i DATED someone i really did like as a person but didn’t have romantic feelings for#and it was. uncomfortable in a very specific way#and it would be like that but like. More; Probably#bc you fucking live together and shit#bad times! but not as bad as being married to bruce thomas wayne. good god

I am not comfortable with the implication that the humanoid manifestation of a vengeful wisp spirit sent me on a fetch quest to get her 107 malevolent buddies to bring together in the form of a Spiritomb as her last act of “mischief” on the mortal plane
#no fr wtf is up with Vessa#why does either Spiritomb or a piece of Spiritomb not only have enough of a human concious to communicate with me#but also have enough power to manifest a human form in both day and night time 24/7 until I’m done collecting her buddies#did she scatter them or did the wizard that cursed her scatter them?#she says something about a magic guy right why are there magic guys turning little girls into wisps#like she does not do any bad at all other than make me interact with a ghost type Pokémon that is not vengeful spirit energy from her#maybe Spiritomb aren’t as fucked up as we thought?#or maybe Vessa is more fucked up than we thought lol also a possibility#also why did I have to chase 107+Vessa wisps all over the fucking country but Volo just gets to have a Spiritomb too#did he meet a different ghost child to go on a fest quest for different wisps and use a different old keystone to manifest them into spirito#I know the reason he has pjs is his team is a Cynthia clone but like I need Lore Reasons for him to have Spiritomb specifically#where’d he get it#pokémon legends arceus

mmmm what if hydra tahiti’d the maximoffs what if that’s why they’re so Like That
#not the. not the death part just the brain machine false memories part#don’t even have to change that much. all the trauma and the situation could still be real as hell#one little tiny change to put stark on the missile#i think it would be Neat#like of course if hydra had that tech they would use it#they have BETTER than that tech they have the mind stone#how do you turn some mostly normal kids protesting the violence in their country#commiting some mostly small and entirely understandable acts of violence against the system into international terrorists?#little bit of mental rejiggering goes a long way#didnt they even have smth like that in wv#where the bomb or smth abt it was false and not a real memory#idk i don’t care#GOD it would’ve been so good to like. actually use hydra’s layers or coercion and manipulation with the maximoffs#like. Any part of it#they barely hint at it i want More#aos goes hard on the mind control and the rest of the mcu doesn’t fucking do anything with it#except with bucky#and i’m sad about it come on please use what you set up

#not to personal post on here#but#mean was the frost Taylor swift song I ever heard#and when I lived alone with my dad I wanted nothing more than to get out#and I’d just lock myself in my room#and sit in my closet#and listen to mean and cry#and wish that I was ANYWHERE else#and I was big enough so he couldn’t hit me#and that I was on my own and grown up and not a little kid#and now it’s 13 years later#I’ve got a college degree#and I’m one of the youngest and most successful people in my career#I’m making more money than him#I’m doing interviews with the news#and I’m going to a fundraiser held by the ACLU fully paid for BY them for my friends and I to attend#I have friends- lots and lots of them#and I’m living in a big city - one of the biggest in the country#and I’m big enough that no one can hit me#least of all him#I haven’t even seen him since I was a teenager#and he’s still drunk and angry and just really… small?#I know mean isn’t her best song#hearing it sung thirteen years later#now that I’m thirteen years older and untouchable#I just am crying over how much I’ve grown since then#it’s such a stupid song to be nostalgic about#but I swore that someday I’d be living in a big ol city#and now I am and all he ever was#and all he is and EVER has been is mean

having a sister who spent years working on a very busy high-risk labor/delivery floor and then went into general high risk OB services is fun because i get ALL the details on how exactly labor differs from media’s depictions of it
like she’s talking to my ma on the phone rn and i just heard her say “yeah she had a great labor! she only pushed for three and a half hours,” and my mom went “oh wow that’s not bad at all!” and i thought the same thing and then remembered that tv always makes it seem like once you start pushing, you’ve got ten, maybe twenty minutes until your baby is in your arms!!? that’s just something i thought was true for most of my life since i’ve never had a baby and most women who HAVE had babies (in my own personal experience etc etc) didn’t seem to really keep track of the timing of what happened when and how long each phase of labor lasted and all that jazz, and honestly it’s not something i’d have ever thought to question. but thanks to having a super cool sister who is very competent and has a ton of L&D experience, i know a lot about the nitty gritty details of labor!!! and that’s pretty cool
having a sister who is an L&D nurse has also, incidentally, firmly cemented my pre-existing refusal to EVER give birth to a child, too, because dear fucking god, the things i’ve heard. never in a million fucking years could that be me
#d speaks#yet another ramble for no real purpose just. me thinkin#just love my sister and love having basically a walking encyclopedia about childbirth right there in my circle#any time i have any sort of question or curiosity about any aspect of labor or delivery or general obstetrics she’s just there!#she knows!!! has all the answers!!!#it’s cool to be related to an Expert and it’s a little wild how much specialized knowledge a person can have w/o any formal recognition#cuz like. fully she is an expert in this field. she knows more than many doctors#esp the floor she worked on is like VERY busy and well known#like ‘people fly in from countries all over the world to give birth there’ type shit#and it’s a high risk floor too so she dealt with all the worst case scenarios and all the emergent cases#on a nightly basis for years#to the point where she moved to be at just a normal OB office and the gap between how much she knew and how much literally everyone else did#was VERY noticeable. like she knows. so much#idk i’m just very proud of my sister and i love her a lot and respect her endlessly#and it’s fun to get to watch some shows and be that person who’s like#‘THATS NOT HOW THAT WORKS!!!!’ lmaoooo

every day i am ashamed to be british. my country is beautiful and i could never belong anywhere else but being represented by this government is ruining me. british actions both past and present are a horrific stain on this country and i will never forgive our genocide-enabling government for its inaction
#we truly are america’s little bitch and i hate it#one day we the people will look back on this and feel nothing but hatred and shame#the same way we look back on britain’s past crimes now.#i can’t speak for the other countries in the islands but as an english person#our people are so wonderful and diverse#and i’m so proud of the english people who have been speaking up for injustice in the world#the government may push us down but there are more of us than them#just because our government is happy to be complicit doesn’t mean we the people are#long live the people and FUCK the government

age gap autumn girl fuck you
#laid down on his bed he asks if i’m alright with him locking the door i say should i be afraid of you locking the door he rolls his eyes#i’m watching a pot on his stove we’re alone in his apartment he’s standing right behind me and i look at the glass of his kitchen window#so i can catch his reflection he’s just standing there waiting for his vegan pasta his meatless dish but i still feel like prey this#weekend i shared a hotel room with the kids they came over at night to watch a game and they’re all cuddled up around me they’re all#laughing and laughing and laughing and telling me about their exes and their boyfriends and i’m under the arm of one of them and he says#kitty kitty you’re going to fall off the bed i rest my head on another’s calf and she says kitty your hair is so soft and they’re all#laughing#i keep this in my drafts and a month after it's freezing at night i'm looking up at a man that might be fifty or at least forty five i#ask his name which i don't remember now because i was plastered. i was so drunk i tell him mister whatever-his-name was you're so handsome#and he blushes like i'm the one chasing him and that's because i am. i am laughing with all of my teeth out. he giggles pretty like i've#spent years doing and i ask him what is it sir what is it and he says i'm not usually told that and i nudge a little more i say you don't?#how? you're so handsome i say it in the way they all taught me in the way i've heard it before i keep going until he leaves for his place#but he doesn't invite me back because it's clear i've made him uncomfortable so i frown a little and lean back towards the boy i made out#with the night before i tell him huh old guy won't fuck me and he laughs he says so you really like them older i say yeah i laugh#i laugh and then i say but they don't seem to like me anymore he makes a joke about me having cut my hair short and i say no it's because#i'm too old for them now and he shakes his head do you see how fucked up that is he tells me and i just laugh harder but don't tell him it#is the truth. but not the whole of it. the rest of the truth is in me prowling through the bars another night and making eyes at them#instead of baring my neck when they come at me it's in me growing into a man in the steel of elevators and their sheets in the ac of their#offices and the heat of their cars and outgrowing them not to turn away from them but to become them that salivating beast they all are#all of us are i lean back on walls and show them a hip a boot-ed-on foot that is still small a wrist that is still thin a jaw that still#won't grow fuzz but don't they see right through they see right through this too small costume i've put on for them in the same way i#used to swear i saw through them too i swore i saw them for what they were but without even noticing they've done what they do in movies#and books and songs and middle-school health classes like in every warning that was given to me but here in this far away country i just#laugh and laugh harder when he says it makes sense though i mean i'm older than you too and he's only 24 and he says it so boyishly#almost with a pout and i cackle and he laughs too and there we are and we sound like children there in the street

I hope every reactionary liberal “vote blue no matter who” person kills themselves forever
#predicting if any of them find this some form of#‘no. just no. you know what? fuck this. fuck you. how dare you. ‘ these motherfuckers don’t have a single original thought of their own#and they all demonstrate that they have they have the backbone of an al dente angel hair spaghetti.#the hair on my head takes a stand better than you do.#when you’re faced with saving yourself or saving others you focus on yourself. don’t fucking go ‘if I could save you I would’#bc no the fuck you wouldn’t. not unless you got something in return.#and they truly believe in ‘American exceptionalism’ and believing their lives are more important. it shows#guess what? I’m also someone who will suffer from any of these candidates. they all will hurt me.#I could pick the one with the least destructive policies regarding my own living situations and those around me.#but what people are trying to get through your thick fucking tin foil covered skulls is that there is no lesser evil#when it comes to genocide. there is no ‘kill everyone a little nicer’ option. that doesn’t happen. you acknowledge who you’re supporting.#have the fucking respect for the people suffering from those policies to at least do that.#‘if you vote for anyone but the dem party candidate you support trump’#y’all could be a trump campaign urselves by making your own campaign look insufferable stupid and spineless.#trump isn’t the fucning antichrist. he sucks and I don’t want him in office but he will not initiate Armageddon.#we have already survived FOUR YEARS of the fucker.#and the democrats truly haven’t been different!! what world do you people live in where the dems have done anything for us??#the vote will have blood on it no matter if it’s red or blue. sit with that.#Harris will NOT be better than Trump bc they’re both going to kill people. I think that’s a pretty significant similarity.#is the problem for you people WHO they’re killing? whether it’s people in another country or YOU. sit with that.#does it feel easier to let someone die that you can’t see?

I neeeed to find a clip of that scene where Clara dresses down Woodrow as he’s hauling Gus’s body back to Texas. The one where she says that Gus and Woodrow were too obsessed with each other to have room for any women in their lives (normal thing to say) and that they did nothing except make each other worse
#these cowboys would do numbers on tumblr#they’re not gay for each other (not even a little bit) for the first three episodes#and then Clara says that and Woodrow doesn’t even deny it. He just looks sadly at the ground and then spends months crossing the country on#the back of a mule to fulfill his friend’s dying wish#crying as we’ve never seen him cry over the grave of his friend#this friend who is more important to him than his own damn son#😐😐😐#idk. I AM reading too much into this#bc I do think it’s genuinely a really moving depiction of an intense male friendship#you don’t see many masculine friendships like this in any media ever#so I’m honestly really happy for all the straight men out there who can fantasize about platonic emotional intimacy via Lonesome Dove

Genuinely so afraid all of the time that I’m a horrible person and don’t know it
#like are all these people I’ve met throughout my life that horrible or is it my fault#then I think a bit more rationally and no cause who the fuck shatters someone’s window cause u forgot ur key#or like who uses every single interaction with u to tell u how to raise an animal when you’ve raised pets and rescues your whole life#whilst they did dog sitting for a year and decided they were a professional#who’s only interactions ever with me were to say how to care for my cat or that I shouldn’t spend my money because she’s irresponsible#ghost rambles#I’m also not the one that drugged and abused me#and if that happened to anyone else I’d never blame them for it so why does my brain want to say it was my fault or I’m being dramatic#like she literally would draw blood leave massive bad bruises#dragged me across the country to leave me locked in a room alone on Christmas#would scream at me if I didn’t want to take drugs literally gave me tranquilizers on more than one occasion#and I’ll still be like yeaa but what if I said something a little rude when I tried leaving her#must be my fault then#I think my brain is just convinced I can’t have met so many shitty people#least without it being my fault#I want to believe most people are good#so why does this always happen
