#So fucking tired

I keep catching myself looking at a shelf where this lovely little piece sits today. It's a quote from Watership Down and was made by astichedreverie.

The full quote is—

“All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a Thousand Enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.” 

Watership Down and those lines in particular have been ingrained in my soul since I was a kid but they are hitting especially hard today.

“Anti endo” “endos can interact”

So which one is it? You can’t use both tags, especially cuz we KNOW you won’t talk to pro endos/endos respectfully with the first tag. Asshole.. - Monty

How many times now have I said "I'm never opening Netflix again"? I love to just not take things too seriously and enjoy what I get when it comes to shows, all too often I've seen fans talk mad shit or abandon ship over perceived slights or minor infractions, but the past couple years I have been utterly gobsmacked by the egregious shit they have done. Incredible shows like Lockwood and Co getting cancelled after one season with zero explanation. Spin-off for Six of Crows being in massive demand, fucking stellar cast, COMPLETELY WRITTEN and then dropped. A multitude of multi-season shows taking a meteoric nosedive in writing quality that has me genuinely wondering, did they switch to AI for this?? Did they hire a wattoad teen from off the street??

Everyone's got their favorite cancelled show, but the recent trend of just absolutely sabotaging your most beloved shows on the way out instead of ending strong to keeping to ANY sort of character arcs or thematic consistency? Agonizingly heinous. If you saw my blog earlier this year you'll know how I felt about the final season of Umbrella Academy, one of the best shows the platform ever put out (viewers know. Not a soul was anything less than heartbroken, and it's rare to see universal opinions online) and today they crippled Outer Banks by writing off the most popular character- and in doing so the ship he was a part of- by killing him. A character once again (TUA reference, once again my fucking favorite ofc) who was abused in childhood, fucked over every moment in life until finally, finally having a chance at peace and then having it nonsensically ripped away for a completely devastating, unecessary, and thematically inappropriate to the show and arc reason. If they're trying to save their platform, they're sure as hell not gonna do it by annihilating every good thing they have.

And on a final note, the particular trend of taking abuse victim characters who have been nonstop shit on by life and then giving them equally tragic, miserable endings no matter what the earlier writers had clearly set up is so fucking disheartening, disrespectful, and dangerous. I can't recall one show they've put out that chose to tackle abuse, especially childhood abuse, that didn't end in a miserable person who was never able to meaningfully connect long term dying horribly. The message that sends to those of us who have actually experienced it- and are statistically prone to harming ourselves as a result- is that there is no hope. You are permanently broken. And sooner or later you will die a miserable death just like every moment you lived- there's no point. Why bother extending your suffering? Just get it over with. Meanwhile those responsible act like the response should be, "Oh yeah, and sad claps, how misfortunate. Just the way it goes I guess. We all love a good tragedy 😘". No. We don't. We are tired of it. We are exhausted. Society and reality fucking sucks right now, we don't need every single bit of media, regardless of tone or themes, to be "gritty" with its most vulnerable and beloved characters.

It's painful, it's personal, and it's not even a good business model! People love these characters BECAUSE we're rooting for them!! We want to see them win after all the suffering!! To remind us in our real lives it is possible, and life is worth it!!

The thing no one tells you about sexual assault is how easy it is for someone who's been SAed to be SAed again and how high the chances are of it being from the same person

I've been mulling over some thoughts about the ending of this period of Jewish acceptance, or rather tolerance, that we all we raised in (or were we just beloved jesters this whole time? Smart and funny and talented with all our thinkers and actors and comedians?) Wondering if we had anything else like it in the past two thousand years. Wondering how much we set ourselves up with every minor bit of antisemitism we laughed off or ignored in the past 70 years to avoid rocking the boat and ending it all too soon (lizard people jokes, all of south park, the christmasification of Chanukah, things like that, idk). Maybe they'll form into something when I'm over this cold.

like, what if, instead of targeting and deleting trans blogs, tumblr targeted and deleted spam blogs???

i'm............... zionism is indeed evil & calling it out is not, in fact, antisemitic. conflating judaism with zionism IS antisemitic tho.

really wish zionists got the fuck out if the x-men tags, but i also unfortunately see why, given the often very clear zionist influences in x-men media, krakoa being one of the obvious examples.

Ahhh yes time to play my silly little game of "Is it burnout or depression or just plain ol' exhaustion?"

Maybe sleeping for an eternity can cure me

I know hockey is steeped in white supremacy and full of far-right conservatives, but it is truly nauseating to see how many people have jumped to eichel's defense

It's father's day and I don't feel like celebrating my own father bc it always feels like it's just a matter of time before he does something that makes me feel god awful, and this time it's no different. It took him a while but he sure got there!

Anyways. Thinking of buying a relatively expensive drink + cake mix because I've had just about fucking enough
