The fact that cost of living is generally based around the idea of having income from two adults with full time jobs means that, unless they have amazing jobs or are born into wealth, most aromantic and disabled people will never be able to live comfortably or have real financial security.

Even if I can work one day, I have absolutely no intention of getting married or having any life partner, platonic or otherwise, which means that there is next to no chance of me being able to live independently like I want. It's. . . a very depressing realization.

apologies for yosukeposting and especially incoherently but slowboiling in my brain whatever the hell was going on w him in kanji’s dungeon. guy who slingshots between some kinda fraught observation that this is so much worse for kanji because it’s happening in front of an audience (over like. freaking out about it), furiously asserting that he’s heterosexual, insinuating danger but then also being the one who volunteers to take kanji home afterwards.

It’s sooooooooooooooo.

I wish So Bad that I could confidently recommend lob corp and library of ruina to people because they're both genuinely rly good games and I also need ppl I know to understand the insanity that is project moon but like godddd they are a fucking Investment. Both in time and in brainpower. I generally think ppl exaggerate how hard lob corp is but it's certainly not easy and when it does get hard it gets HARD. Also it literally requires at least one day 1 reset (basically a new game+) to fully beat the game and at this point I've done at least 10. And for lor I'm not nearly as far in and I'm just scratching the surface of the real game but it's a beast of its own. Also 100+ hours and also hard as hell. Like this game does not fuck around with its difficulty spikes it will make you use your brain and it will give you a damn headache in the process. It's also one of my favorite card combat games I've ever played with mechanics that just so beautifully complement each other to create a dynamic and interesting battle system that gives it a completely different vibe and feeling than any other deck builder games I've played to the point where it almost feels wrong to me to categorize them together. But also I am not even slightly joking abt the headache thing every time I play this damn game I close it with a horrible headache and have to take a multi day break. I think everyone should experience this with me <3

i am never gonna forget how i got treated by the actually autistic community for saying masking is a privilege btw. by definition it is. a privilege is something that benefits or elevates you in a society that not everybody possesses.

masking is the act of pretending to be allistic, which is a direct benefit to any autistic living in a society that isn't built for them (which is all of them).

therefore, if you are autistic and have the ability to mask, you are privileged over autistics who can't mask. i don't understand why some people can't accept this.

im genuinely upset at all the ppl falling for threads/insta over twitter at this time ngl. i hope yall realize that the lizard man mark zuckerberg wants you to live in his ballsack fr and has been making moves to establish meta as the social media Monopoly since forever ago and ur basically spreading ur legs at him for free

and jokes aside having one corporation dominate social media is genuinely insane. if meta got up one day and decided we’re going to abuse our terms of service and also just be evil now- oh wait they have been doing that and clearly have no intention of changing ever

night people when the morning person says 10pm is late and they want to go to bed: "oh, yeah, this is kinda late for you, isn't it. my bad, sorry, i forgot. talk to you tomorrow, okay? rest well!"

morning people when the night person wakes up at 11am and wants to eat breakfast: "wow, finally awake, huh. you know, some of us have been awake since 5am."

Trying To Survive + magic?

She keeps a book beneath her pillow. It isn't the most comfortable to sleep on, but sleep is a rare gift for her anyway.

The book is simple, worn almost beyond recognition, edges of the pages frayed and torn. Inside are a handful of tales, of princesses, dragons, and swords.

Silly tales. Nonsense tales. Every child she knows would scoff at the idea of magic, at getting something for nothing or wishing on a star. Truthfully, she does, too; there's nothing of talking animals or fairy godmothers that keeps her coming back to the book.

However....

At the end of the book, the very last chapter, there's a tale of girl named Rapunzel. A curious heroine, even by this book's standards: She does very little throughout it, trapped up in her tower, helpless and mostly alone. She serves little purpose, it seems, and yet the story is about her. About saving her. Not about making her useful or giving her purpose, but rescuing her for the sake of it.

How curious a thought, that she could have nothing to offer but terribly long hair that seems more inconvenient than anything, and yet the prince would find her worth saving.

due to server chat- now thinking about Kokichi in an au where people have wings where one of his wings is underdeveloped and he has prosthetic feathers on it that he uses to help him fly correctly, buuuuut-

he's totally the kind of dork who looks at a disability that requires a prosthetic and goes "okay, now what if it had LEDs in it"

-his prosthetic feathers absolutly have LEDs in them and are ridiculously obnoxious colors. it's the nature of the Kokichi to be as loud and annoying both literally and visually as possible, and he's already got big flashy wings in this au- next step up is visually loud feathers.

I need you to tell me all about Project Cannibalism actually

Okay! So I have like 10 pages of worldbuilding just for this project, so if you wanna know something more specific, feel free to send me another ask!

Project Cannibalism is currently still in the planning stages.

The story takes place in Suya, a theocracy dedicated to cult of Suyo, a cthonic earth goddess, ruled by hereditary priestesses. Suyo was founded by exiles from the lowlands, banished to the steppe where most of them were killed by the harsher conditions at higher elevations, or by the nomads that lived on the steppe.

All living creatures have some kind of magic inside of them. Life itself is an energy that can be bent towards magical working. Usually this is expressed through alchemy- creating effects by brewing potions and later, by runesmithing. It can be a labor intensive process and biomes with more biodiversity have more options when it comes to alchemy. It is a useful technology that underpins most the engineering accomplishments on the peninsula.

The exiles discovered a way to use the magic of human life, amplifying another's energy through their own bodies to do bigger magic, bypassing the need for the process of alchemy. Other creatures can serve as batteries, but the closer the battery is to human, the more efficient the process. It is with this magic that they created arable land out of the rocky steppe and drove away the nomads.

You couldn't light a candle with the life of a cockroach, but with a another human, you can break up boulders, divert rivers, raise shelters, and only take a few years off of their lifespan.

The story for Project Cannibalism centers on a pair of identical twins, separated by birth. One raised in the temple of Suyo as a talented priestess, the other a genius alchemist that has run out of luck and time and realizes they have an uncanny resemblance to the up and coming priestess.... However, they find themself with more than they can chew, as the aging queen priestess and her heir are at odds with each other, and their twin is being groomed to possibly replace the crown priestess.

thinking about how in DAI's Jaws of Hakkon the spirits have been calling the Inquisitor "the one who blazes like fire".

thinking about how Cole supports that because he says in a few banters that he can't see through the Inquisitor because they're too bright, because of the anchor

thinking about the confirmation that elves come from spirits

thinking about how Sera was always hinted to be closer to her spiritual nature and that it's, in a way, likely why she rejected current elven culture

thinking about how Sera's ears point where the Fade is, how Sera sees more into the Breach, how Sera has instincts she can't explain that makes her more Elfy

thinking about Solas saying she had "a purity of purpose", and also says "We are not so far apart, you and I." when Sera describes how she sees the Breach

thinking about how, when meeting Sera, the first thing she asks the Inquisitor is "so you're the one who glows?"
