#I'm a broken record about it but

The ending to 7x9 made me squawk indignantly. Like, that was so rude /lh. The framing device, both literally and symbolically, of the window just hit so perfectly. Man. They're separated, there's a distance between them, but they're both making the effort to look across that distance and see each other anyway. MY HEART. Juliet is literally twisted around, facing backwards. SHE CARES GODSDAMNIT. She cares more than she wants to, more than she reasonably should, and she says all that and more through the damn BLOCKING. This show is the love of my life.

Hi, I found some information regarding Alastor’s romantic orientation/aromantism!

HAZBIN HOTEL Pilot Cast LIVE Panel! (1:03:13)

oh yeah I have seen this, realise I hadn't actually fully watched that section before now though

yeah I do think this is more respectful than certain previous statements but I still like don't understand vivzie's insistence on not wanting to confirm alastor's aromanticism, I feel like she's not fully consistent with her logic

like she agreed when one of them pointed out that with every broken heart there's an aspec person out there who appreciates the rep but even after that still went on to say it was "canonical information that might spoil a little bit of fun"

she admits she can't control the fanbase, I also admit I can't control other fans, but that should be precisely why she should just confirm it. she can't control the fanbase anyways they will have their fun anyways no matter what his canonical identity is ANYWAYS just SAY he's aro so we have our rep

I know I've been going on and on about rhetoric, but I think too many people take what they read at face value. And that's how you wind up uncritically absorbing information that you don't understand, just because it makes you feel some type of way. Usually, an innocuous tumblr post is not always worth interrogating, but when there are accusations of sexual harassment thrown at a specific marginalized group of people, is it not worth interrogating why? Or I dunno, maybe people should actually see what the accused group are actually saying before sweeping judgements are made?

I've seen posts explicitly blaming "transandrophobia truthers" circling. And with the disgusting mass harassment anon, I don't blame people for being outraged at the contents of the ask at all. It was viscerally repulsive. And I think it's more than appropriate to share those feelings of disgust or violation with those who received harassment, but when the message suddenly shifts to "this is all those transandrophobia truthers' faults," you have to ask yourself how did we get here? If you encounter a post discussing REAL transmisogynistic harassment anons and then it takes some leap of unsubstantiated logic where suddenly "transandrophobia truthers" are the main culprits of said transmisogyny from an ANONYMOUS ask, you need to go back and read that post again to see if it makes sense. You need to know the context if you're going to be coming to the same conclusions (in this case: "fuck those transmisogynistic transandrophobia truthers"). Are there really transandrophobia-centered blogs defending or agreeing with the horrid anon? On my end, I don't fucking see any.

People have to ask themselves what others want when they refer to a group of (not even all trans men/masc) queer people as "transandrophobia truthers" or "transandrodorks." Are they purposefully trying to rile you up? Are they trying to make it so so obvious that they're right? Are you nodding along with the confidence with which words are being said or the actual contents? Are there all the correct buzzwords? Do you feel guilty, angry, sad? Is there evidence of said accusations? Is one person's belief acting as a stand-in for a whole group's? Are people really saying that? In those words? What's the context?

I can go on, but you get the idea.

I didn't keep track of how long I worked on chapter 8 of Signals, Space, and Shrimp this time, but it's sitting at 2752 words now. As I would assume you already know, with my usual chapter length of about 5k words that means that I'm about halfway done. <insert generic apology for the wait and thanks for your patience here>

I would like to thank all the people in my life who don't read vocaloid fanfic and yet still indulge me when I need to ramble at least twice a week about my favorite fic of the past several years

Do I even need to say it? Panthera by @idrewacow, go read it.

w e l p I finally got the rejection letter for the job I interviewed for last week. I wanted it. Badly. And by wanted I mean needed, desperately. It had perfect hours, full health insurance, etc.

I'm just so tired of getting to the interview process and getting the same. damn. rejection. every. time, about not having experience in that specific role and them going with people who had experience in that area.

If that's the issue, why ask for an interview with me at all?? Like. Reject me out of hand if it is that important to the business. I am not going to show up to the interview like "oh yeah I have this experience, just didn't put it on my resume or talk about it in my cover letter." I've even asked for more information about the interview post-rejection and again, I just get the same answers--it was a great interview, I was put together, thoughtful, etc, I just don't have the right experience.

Ugh.

Well!

Good things today:

Got over my brain freeze thanks to the rejection letter so got significant writing done

It's in the 50s and sunny so I went for a walk to daydream with music

I was able to walk to the end of the apartment complex and down the street in the neighborhoods a little bit, which I haven't been able to do because of my foot sprain in October!! Go foot, go.

Since I was able to walk farther, I got to see my favorite tree which has a hole in it, which I have for months made up stories about

Also got to see my favorite 1870s house which is pink and green and looks like a Hansel and Gretel House, and has a big tree stump in front that also elicits story-daydream ideas.

Apartment neighbor's balcony skeleton is still up on December 15th, I love this skeleton

I saw the rarest apartment window cat, a super fluffy orange and white grumpy looking guy

My brother sent me a restaurant gift card for Christmas

My friend sent me a Mahito pin for Christmas and I want to lick it (but I won't)

Applied for a job at a cat-only vet!! Cats!!

I'm just always a bitch to everyone apparently and I'm told to go upstairs... certain people wonder why I stay in my room all the time

getting diagnosed with adhd in 7th grade but still remaining untreated and having that never be acknowledged as a factor by any adults even while I was absolutely drowning throughout school is such a specific weird stupid thing. I get to see a lot of adults getting a diagnosis for the first time as an adult and going 'the whole time... it wasn't my fault? this is an actual disability? it really isn't supposed to be this hard? I couldn't help it? 🥺' and having their self worth as human beings reaffirmed for the first time, and I just go ah cool, can't relate :) my adhd still isn't A Real Excuse and there's still Something Wrong With Me (in a poor character, unsympathetic way); we have the exact same disorder but mine is my fault and I should be able to help it

The day is gonna end soon so I just wanted to say a final thank you to everyone who wished me a happy birthday <3 Thank you all so so much! You've all really made today so special!

[bandzboy]

hi tris, i just wanted to tell you that your passion and determination (when it comes to helping palestine and opposing zionism) is really inspiring me to be a better person. admittedly i had not been boycotting entirely because i really use my music as a crutch, but i'm going to try harder and at the VERY least decrease my consumption from those labels !! of course i have been helping in other ways (donating, sharing resources with my coworkers, imploring the people close to me to donate and help too), but i could be doing more. with all the backlash i'm sure you and other boycotters are getting i just wanted to send this message along to keep your spirits up :) <3 keep fighting, and i'll keep fighting with you !!!

~annabelle <3

i am glad that i could inspire you to do more! it's kinda hard to sometimes to be optimistic about this whole boycott (because that are still SO many people that oppose it and are disrespectful to those that are trying to do something) but at the end of the day, we are helping a big and greater cause and just trying to get rid of zionism in the industry and for them to not have a platform anymore! we must do this because it will help in the grand scheme of things. being okay with zionism in this industry is being complicit and truly we should not do that and be opposed to it. i love music with all my heart and that's why it hurts me that it is being tainted by these people every day with their awful propaganda and morals. they are still in positions of power and in every nook and cranny of the music industry and as a music listener and as an aspiring musician, i don't want this to be our future! i want people to listen to music without the possibility that they are giving money to zionists! i've been doing the best i can do share information and i'm glad it's getting through people and yes unfortunately there has been backlash in my replies and inbox sometimes but truly i feel like atp nothing will make me stop me from speaking and to do what is right. these people trying to stop others from taking a stand are cowards and quite literally stand for nothing and hate that their comfort is being compromised! i always think about how this is an important step to make things better! things like this take time and a lot of work and i, as well as the other boycotters, are willing go on with this until are wishes are met and everyone should think this way and not get discouraged because new people are joining every day and a lot of great advancements have been made and i believe that if more people join over time, this will end faster and we can go back to supporting artists normally
