Gosh, yes, I stare at the moon in awe every night even when I'm feeling down! It's so beautiful and even that doesn't begin to describe how amazing it looks! "The moon is beautiful, isn't it?" that Japanese saying that always makes me think of Lumity/Lumelia!
āWoaah look at the moonā Me literally every night no matter what phase the moon is.
#Interesting#Sorry about that! At least things are different now and I'm happy for you for that#that things are different#i mean#if you don't mind me saying and the moon is always a gorgeous sight!#I was the same#Me and my one of my best friends were sitting at a bus stop at sunset#It was just a friendly visit#not a date#but at one point I think he said or asked me if he could try sth and I said yes not knowing but I trusted him#he tucked my hair behind my ear gently#looking at me. I think I glanced back but zoned out or sth and he pulled me in softly and kissed me#It crossed my mind it might happen but I was clueless too XD tho I'd heard of stuff like that in media#that was my first kiss I suppose tho I felt nothing#Sorry#no offense to him š
he's awesome#but no need to apologize either 'cause if I'm gay I'm gay ;D Yes the moon wasn't clearly showing in the night sky but anyway XD#Love hearing personal stories#Sharing real life stories ā¤ļøšxo#Oh also forgot to mention some people were misleading me sometimes#Making me think they liked me romantically but they had bad intentions saying some mean things to me#some social cues I guess XD anyway#All that's over now in my past ;D

people who go through the main tags of big and tumultuous fandoms looking for new fresh good posts to reblog are essential to any circle. theyāre like true hunter gatherers leaving the safety of settlement and braving the unknown wilderness to find food for the flock. they risk their lives every day and will come back with a few scratches at best and severe psychological damage at worst
#peach rambles#hall of fame i guess#i love hearing everyone share their stories in the comments. me personally? this is about kingdom hearts#usually the main culprit is disdain and dusty old misogynistic takes for kairi (the main girl)#there's x reader occasionally#cursed content with random disney characters#or people who complain about how much the series has expanded#that don't understand that over half the story is contained in the so-called 'side games'#or just generally dusty takes that have been disproven already

i wanna know more about svsss menopause
They synced their periods together too well. Now they are synced through their perimenopause years.
#Poorly drawn svsss#svsss#shen qingqiu#luo binghe#shang qinghua#mobei jun#ask#I truly think that the peak of the SVSSS (peri)menopause era is just them commiserating over the experience of it.#Not pictured here is Liu Qingge barely suppressing his hormonal rage. He would have it *bad*.#I think Liu Mingyan is the only person who does not have a bad time with menopause because she takes estrogen supplements.#Which sounds like a trans headcanon but I think regardless of cis/trans status she's researched this and is prepared.#I have developed a sense for what menopause is purely by exposure to the various complaints I have overheard/been told.#These are all very specific and yet very common stories.#I do not know what the overlap is for SVSSS fans and people (not just women) going through menopause. I hope this is funny to SOMEONE.#It's an untapped market of potential! Too many young'uns in these woods.#Synced periods this. Ovulating that. Where's the menopausal homicidal rage?#Come on! Ripping off your clothing in a sudden burst of heat is *SO* SVSSS core!!! Make perimenopause sexy!!!#Anyways. Please put your menopause headcanons in the comments/tags <3 I'd love to hear them.#Thank you joblessmonday for following up with an ask and giving me an excuse to release this train of thought.

So I met Jessica Madsen (Bridgerton's Cressida Cowper) on the weekend and she is now one of my favourite people š„¹
Got her autograph, sat in on her panel, and thanks to encouragement from a new friend I also went along to a special lil event and got to chat with Jess over dinner for 2 hours š« It was her, Sam Phillips (who plays Lord Debling and is also a joy of a human) me and 7 other lovely folk.
They were both really relaxed and chatted openly about the show - both love the change to Michaela and that there will be more queer rep. They asked which order of Bridgerton siblings we thought the show would be going with and seemed really amused at our guesses (I dont know if they even know what the order is themselves, they were playing very coy about it š
).
A highlight of the night tho was early on I mentioned that I had to drive 2 hours to get home afterwards, and didn't think she even heard me. But then when she was leaving she touched my shoulder and told me "drive safe!" And I just š« - so sweet she remembered š
Anyway, I am now forever a Cressida defender, my girl can do no wrong and deserves the world
#like it was a full 2 hours so there was SO much said#cant repeat all of it#and wont repeat a few things cos š#but it was amazing and i love her#oh i asked about the ice cream scene#tho i think other people did at the con too but nice to hear about it directly lol#she just loves Cressida so very much#and Sam is so invested in the show and Debling too#he has a whole back story for him#hes a truly lovely person too#hope he comes back next season#and i hope jess comes back for another con!#this was her first ever i hope she had a good time#i think she did#oh i dont have any photos from the dinner cos we werent allowed#but there was a group photo taken we just havent gotten it yet#i need some proof i didnt imagine it šš#cressida cowper

I am once again thinking about how odysseus who witnessed the horrors that the captured women went through (one of his main duties in the iliad was taking the women back home and making sure they were as comfortable as possible and safe because he was the only one trusted not to violate them further due to his devotion to penelope. And in the odyssey part of the reason circe sent him to the underworld was so that he'd have to listen to all these women's stories (before he could talk to the prophet) ). Who was one of the few that saw women as people and respected their space and opinions. And was then put in those exact same situations. I don't have the motivation right now to do a full literary analysis of this (I'll site the sources too) but oh man one day I'm going to write a full essay on this.
#The odyssey#iliad#Odysseus#Tw: rape#Tw: sex slaves#Tw: camp slaves#Tw: That one time Calypso kept odysseus as a sex slave for 7 years#circe#Something about the inherent trauma of witnessing how your friends treat women#Watching them keep sex slaves#Then having to bring these girls home hearing about their stories seeing the aftermath#Then living in a situation where you have to let a powerful witch use you as she pleases half in payment for lives/food/medicine#Half because she has the equivalent of a gun to your best friends head and if you don't keep her happy then youre all dead#And then that witch sends you on a quest to the underworld where granted you'll benefit too but first#You have to listen to every single captured women from the Trojan war that you didn't Shepard home tell you their stories#Tell you that you're a horrible person while you are living in a disturbingly similar situation#And then later finding yourself trapped as a sex slave for seven years to an immortal nymph#And then being labeled as a horrible cheater for the rest of history#And none of this well historically everybody cheated or it's up to interpretation bullshit#Because it fucking isn't and granted a lot of abridged versions skip this shit#But if you read the full original stories and still think odysseus cheated then you just have an issue with men being victims#Or weren't paying attention i guess#Where's that meme where's it like the text was up to interpretation cut to the text where it very bluntly states what's happening#And I'm not saying odysseus was a good person or that he didn't have slaves because he did. And he wasnt#But first off nobody deserves to suffer that violation#Second they weren't sex slaves they were all nurses/maids/spys and I'm not getting into the ancient culture slavery issues rn#Third there's a lot you can pick to hate odysseus for but cheating/disrespecting women wasn't one of them#They literally invented a new word to describe his and penelopes love and it means to be so in love that you think the exact same way#Also forcing this narrative of odysseus cheating and penelope leaving to be a single girl boss is#Just the fake feminist mindset that stay at home moms are weak and wrong and live awful lives

I really do love your writing and Salvage gets me through when I am sad or depressed. However, I was wondering, how do you cope when someone who wrote a review didnāt like your writing? If youāve had this beforeā¦ I had one today and I am dejected. Iām working through my perfectionism and I keep telling myself, āmy writing isnāt for everyone and itās okay.ā Any advice?
If it was unsolicited, especially on a fanfic? Delete it, block the person if you feel like, then go do your rage activity of choice before forgetting about it forever. That person is rude and doesn't deserve your time anymore than someone bumping into you on the street.
I've also found it useful to actively think of my fanfic as writing practice, and not even my brain expects perfection from writing practice. It also frees you do Try Cool Things.
Now take this digital blanket and cup of hot chocolate and go reread your nice comments.
#most readers are absolutely lovely#But yeah I've gotten these too because there is always someone on the internet who thinks they are Right and Smart and that those things#Are more important than being kind and polite#Fic Reader Etiquette 101: the only writers looking for crits on a fic are the ones that explicitly asked for it#The only potential exception is for typos that impact reading clarity and even then varies by author#I love having any and all typos pointed out but I know some writers Don't Want To Hear It#My worst comment was the person who wrote essentially:#Wow I remember loving this story it had a huge impact on my life but now I reread years later and it's shit#...Honey. HONEY.#please realize that your personal growth and resulting resonance or lack thereof with a story's themes#have literally nothing to do with me#and I hope your next bit of character growth involves internalizing your self-reflection instead of outsourcing it to fanfiction

Everyone tell me why you support your sports team/sports person!
#I'm bored at work and love hearing people's sport origin stories!#I'll start!#I support West Ham because my Dad does#boring I know!#And when I was 25 and Ella decided to get me into football I was like fine but I support this team as I have a hat from when I was 11!#every other support I have watching sports either comes from them being British and lovely (see Andy Murray)#or I've immediately attached myself to them for reasons that cannot be rationally explained (see Ronnie O'Sullivan)#I feel very strongly that any way you start watching a sport is completely legit#especially by the way if you see a person and are like yes I want to immediately collect them!!!#see me @ jannik sinner#please join in I really do love hearing people talk about why they support certain teams and athletes!!!

OKAY! Chatot rant in tags below! Read at your own discretion.
#okay starting from the beginning of where ppl usually dislike him. apple woods chapter.#he doesnāt give hero/partner the CHANCE to explain themselves despite them being relatively good recruits up until that point.#and that legit might be my only gripe with that chapter bc!!! stories need conflict! I LIKE the conflict in apple woods!!!#hero and partner being punished so something they didnāt do!#the misunderstanding! how team skull (Skuntank) actually outplays the main duo with a clever yet rotten trick. I LOVE that it segways into-#one of the more sweeter scenes of guild members looking out for eachother. I LIKE APPLE WOODS CONFLICT.#but chatot just. not giving them a chance. is so dumb.#Iād personally fix this by having a lil montage of hero/partner fucking up on jobs. A LOT. and chatot giving them a pass every time.#and let the perfect apple incident BE the one where he puts his foot down and doesnāt listen to them. bc heād given them loads of chances.#and doesnāt want to hear any excuse.#but yeah. I legit dont mind him during that chapter except for that really stupid and frustrating moment.#NOW. CHAPTER 17.#UGGGGHHH WHERE DO I BEGIN#Him not believing hero and Partner about Grovyle and the future being in ruin? FINE. ACTUALLY GOOD. BC CHATOT WOULD BE SKEPTIC.#IT FITS HIS CHARACTER!!#BUT WHAT DOES SUCK. IS HIM GOING āDusknoir isnāt the bad guy. he didnāt do anything wrongā#WHEN HE LITERALLY KIDNAPPED HERO AND PARTNER RIGHT I N F R O N T OF HIM.#(āNO LITERALLY. HIS CHARACTER IS IN THE FRONT ROW WHEN IT HAPPENED.)#and him. having the GALL to tell hero and partner they mustāve been āseeing thingsā and downplaying the HELL they went through.#despite them being missing for hours/days. his own guild recruits. and his angry sprite showing up.#like. I think thatās when I genuinely despised him.#that and him going āOH I BELIEVED YOU THE WHOLE TIME HEEHOO :)ā shit was so fucking annoying.#just playing it off as a joke the second the guild started to believe hero and partner.#IMAGINE IF HE W A S ACTUALLY TESTING THE GUILDāS TRUST. SHOWCASING HIM AS THE MORE RESPONSIBLE AND RESPECTFUL RIGHT HAND OF THE GUILD.#and yes. Brine cave he saves hero and partner. but at that point I just didnāt care anymore.#he fucked those two over so much. that I didnāt care what āvaliantā sacrifice he had.#and he grills Team Skull for what they did OFF SCREEN. they couldnāt even give us THAT.#<<< THAT or him outright saying sorry wouldāve been nice. IKIK his āactionsā or whatever but.#eughh again this is all imo. Iām not trying to make people hate him or change their mind.#Iāll get into positives in the second post cause Iām running out of tags

I would like to hear about some of your funny reoccurring Chronicle jokes that happened due to little goofs on the part of a player or the ST... for example - Raymond Mulder (@thesixthplaneteer 's hunter character) is canonically a direct descendent of Godwynn (also thesixthplaneteer's Ventrue) because we used the same face claim for them in different games and oops! Let's just roll with it!
#charlie hunnam we love you#personal#vtm#wod#would love to hear similar stories if you got them :3 i'm just plinkin' away at day-job!

#tumblr polls#narrative nonsense#would love to hear people's perspectives on this in the tags/replies#(and also perhaps which of the three you think you'd find the most bearable?)#author would include their intent; their plans; the context of their life; and the fact that they're flawed in the same way as any person#audience would include fandom for a popular enough work and i imagine would be extra fucked if it's a serialized story#i think medium and genre is probably self explanatory#whether or not you'd have any direct contact with the author(s) or audience is up to you for the sake of this hypothetical

Happy birthday to Arthur Wellesley, the Duke of Wellington! (May 1st, 1769)
#Wellington is one of my āgrey area people#I canāt hate the man because Iām just English enough (with still living ties there) that I grew up being serenaded about how awesome he was#but I also donāt love him either as he went to war with Denmark#a nation I have even closer ties to and affection for ;-;#my brain also blue screens at almost any thought regarding his love life#I guess growing up hearing the stories can do that to a person :/#historical#England#birthday#arthur wellesley
