#MS thoughts

[irresponsible-masochist]

Today is the third anniversary of me being officially diagnosed with MS.

It’s kind of a fucked up thing to keep track of, I guess, but…it feels like it hasn’t been that long, but at the same time, it feels like it’s been much longer.

It’s a weird thing to live with, MS. I feel like I just got to a point where I can accept that I have it. I still mourn the days before-life before I had infusions and medical debt and a fucked up immune system that makes it hard to fight off even a simple ear infection. I hope it will get easier with time, but who knows?

3 damn years I’ve been putting up with MS. 3 years my wife has been putting up with me having MS. I can say that as scary as it is, I’m glad that I’ve always had her. Her love and support have never wavered. Even on my bad days, my hard days, my worst days, she’s been there to love me through it and I have no idea how she’s done it.

3 years of MS Living. I’ll be on this fucked up ride for the rest of my life. At least I’m what they call “stable.” No new lesions, no PML, I’m doing as well as a person with MS can be, and I’ve learned to accept that.

I just hope that I can continue to be “stable.”

This is a great example of a joke that's significantly funnier if you drop the bottom two panels. The facial expressions sell both the gag and your ideological point with no further commentary necessary. Who is Ivy addressing that to. The insane mass-murdering clown lady who you're gonna try to render unconscious or dead in a couple minutes? Or the audience, who you're soothing like a startled horse with assurances that both the character and the author have the Correct (tm) politics?

So, did everyone see K doing the work of a team of people for four days straight and just decide that was a normal thing for them to have done and not, like, INCREDIBLE thematic work.

Like. The problem is not that K is self-centered or that K is selfish or even that K is a dumbass. The problem is that K has never learned how to champion a cause. K has been trying to fix the world, not just Evan, and the whole *gestures* thing with his arm is not just about their ‘I can fix him’ mindset.

It’s ‘I can fix everything.’ It’s ‘I can fix what I SPECIFICALLY broke.’ Magic is gone because K wanted to have a world full of wonder and hope. Like, Evan’s lack of healing is directly followed by magic breaking, and that is why K is so desperate to fix it. Look at what K has been doing to fix what they have broke, look at how Teddy’s been forced to stay inside and how K has actively deteriorated. It’s not just about this one thing! The character flaws go so deep.

It is not normal to do what K has been doing. It is actively detrimental to do what K has been doing to themself. K fucks up (or at least perceives themselves has having fucked up) and then K takes a big, risky swing to fix the fuck up and then that fails, too and K has to fix it again so K takes another try…

The ARGs and the trench coat look and Teddy in a room all day and K not eating enough. Those are a big swing too. Those are a big, flashy way to fix things because again K has not learned how to champion a cause, K did not properly recover from Terminal Onlineness even if they did learn how to stop viciously bullying people for bad opinions.

K has a deeply admirable, genuine desire to help and the way K chooses to help is Big Swings and the rules of the world have changed. The rules of the world have changed. This is NOT Big Swings time, this is buckle down and work at small goals and focus in time.

Evan tried to help and failed too. But what Evan tried to help with was a t-shirt, not a broken arm, and so the consequence was nothing but an errant bird.

gotta be prepared

*those* tf2 players complaining about 'new fandom' & 'woke stuff' will never make sense to me cause in this game you already have:

1- a black/non-white person in the main character cast who isn't the butt of constant racist jokes

2- women in positions of power + ones that are very important to the story

3- a character whose gender is unconfirmed

4- various disabled characters [though one in particular is debatable, i guess]

5- a̶c̶c̶u̶r̶a̶t̶e̶ m̶e̶n̶t̶a̶l̶ i̶l̶l̶n̶e̶s̶s̶ r̶e̶p̶r̶e̶s̶e̶n̶t̶a̶t̶i̶o̶n̶

6- an implied to be/canonically lesbian character
