#The Rejects™

related to my longer post just now, but it is also kinda funny when people try to frame Lucanis as being reluctant to be First Talon because he is struggling with a conflict between a gentler spirit and the work of being a killer when one of the reasons Lucanis preferred not to be First Talon is because it would cut into the time he spends stabbing people to death. like, he likes the killing people part of the job so much that he's trying to turn down a promotion that might affect how much directly killing people he'd be doing.
#generally I also think people don't grasp super well why Lucanis is reluctant to be First Talon and vastly exaggerate him being ill-suited#but that's a whole other post#I'm also someone who likes it when someone is asked or pushed to step into a role they're reluctant to have but can absolutely handle#because I like the idea of navigating and the cross-sections of duty and purpose and devotion and finding yourself within that#and how to navigate the concept of having what is laid out for you vs. what you want yourself and whether Wanting is relevant#and whether you can grow into this to want it and whether there is a way to do so at cross-purposes to the intent that put you here#can you both grow into wanting this and still reject what others have always picked out for you? questions and problems that I love#this is to say I also have Disagreements™ with a lot of others in the fandom wrt Lucanis and the role of First Talon#DATV things

fuck it I've had enough. I had an intro to cultural anthropology class a semester ago, but looking at recent bullshit in Florida, I have a few things to say:
I'm sick of people treating culture like it's some chunk of earth.
It's neither something you can wage war on nor fight for. It is not a finite amount of substances that is adulterated with new introductions. It isn't something precious in the same way a piece of jewelry or what have you; not preserved safe by being put in a locked box. Cultures are not the current models of bludgeon that groups of people impose upon others. One's culture, in total, is not an "immovable cornerstone" of anything made by humans. It is not in any way like stone.
It did not exist before there were people to possess it. A culture is something we've created amongst each other. In short, it is a conversation. one of beliefs, institutions, and knowledge; spoken by the beliefs and actions of it's participants. It is a conversation that you have a voice in too.
If you forget anything I say before or since, please do not forget that.
#social justice#“we're living in a dystopia” -- yeah we're gonna if we just roll over and accept that.#“that's just positivity bias-h” fuck you. giving up hope means these issues get to win#you've gone and pissed me off now RONNIE. it's time your bullshit got pulled out by the roots.#creative writing ig#rant over#current events#in particular#homophobia#the culture war is dumb#im convinced they're rejecting/approving blaze™ posts based on blacklisted tags alone#anyone using 'culture war' as a tag needs to read this the most.#“ woke mind virus” too. i mean c'mon#u just want to stop ppl from speaking about whatever's 'woke' to you.#hence why desantis is trying to keep schools of all things to keep silent on social issues.

like, not to be one of Those People™, but it sure is hwilde playing a video game and slowly realizing that it's going to be significantly longer than you were expecting because the plot is still going despite having beaten what seems like the final boss
#medium post?#and by Those People™ i mean the ones who#get annoyed about the length of games in proportion to their $ cost#b/c Those People™ usually reject the role of capitalism in that

new ship dynamic:
two traumatized people pleasers who keep trying to one-up one another like "no lets do what YOU want". this repeats about 65,816 times.
until- through Wacky Hijinx (and terrible misfortune)- they both figure out how to communicate and Just Begin to start learning how to learn where boundaries even are and learning how to set them.
#and yes I'm thinking of#astarion x tav#right now because uh#I heavily project on my tav (cherie)#and as such she has The RSD™ and has the tendency to sacrifice what she wants because she's afraid of being rejected and/or abandoned#cue “Unstoppable Force vs Immovable Object” when she starts getting Busy™ with astarion#baldurs gate 3#baldurposting#bg3#astarion bg3#astarion ancunin

had a bad bout with mother ✌️
#which. hurts.#because she's not a bad person. but she is undeniably someone who has continuously hurt me for the past decade of my life#and doesn't even realize it#and it's only now that i'm starting to realize that a lot of my Quirks™ as a person that i just surrendered myself to are just#responses to my environment and the people around me and how i feel about it.#so it's just now that i'm starting to feel like i can confront them a little bit because#hey maybe i wouldn't be as much of a shut-in if i didn't feel attacked every time i talk to any of you#which perpetuates the issues BY THE WAY#what do you think are the psychological long-term results of having like a 60% negative comment rate on a person every time you talk to the#no wonder i don't feel comfortable talking to you anymore so i don't do it!! we're down to like 0-2 times a day and some days it's all bad!#and why i feel like i can only have a life when everyone leaves me alone !!#i have to slot in food cleaning showering working etc all within the confines of the very specific hours i am left home alone#which gets really difficult when i try to spend as much of my day alone which means i am up enjoying the quietness of the night#which messes up everything else!!#because i just Don't Feel Comfortable whenever I'm not!! and it's genuinely paralyzing!!!!!#and I WISH IT WASN'T. but that's not up to me. and i am just starting to realize that.#because as long as i am afraid of opening my door in fear of getting punched in the face with rejection.#i am not going to be able to move on.#and probably the starting line would be to Not Be In That Situation.#which means i have to put my foot down and try to stop some of this.#but. it's hard. and i am afraid no one will listen to me.#as that is the role that i seem to play nowadays.

if there are any late bloomers like me here:
sometimes what happens is that you have a pretty big room and the box is off to one corner of the room so you don't really notice it that much. but as you grow, you accumulate more stuff and you need to use more of your room and it starts to get in the way
and it takes you many many years to even start thinking about the box, because it's not like you stub your toe on it every day, right? but it does get to a point where you finally open it up, and yup, there's your little future curled up in there
and you don't really know what to think, because on one hand you starte at it, bewildered, like — this was here all along? this was an option??? I could have had this ages ago???
and on the other hand, would you rather have been forced into a smaller room where the box would have been more in the way, so you were forced to open it sooner?
and hopefully, if you're like me, the other people in your house are happily helping you open your box and saying things like ‘ohhhh you had this thing in there all this time? damn, that explains so many things about you’
hey so i want you to imagine you had a really big and inconvenient box in your bedroom that you always had to navigate around. and you were always knocking your knee into it and it wasn't the right height to use as a desk but it was too big to use as an end table and it kept you from putting your bed where you wanted it and it smelled kind of weird if you got too close. and this was your life, your whole life, knocking around this stupid fucking annoying fucking painful fucking box.
'what's in this box, anyway?' you would ask, and everyone else in the house would say, 'that thing's not supposed to be there, we don't have one,' and you'd say 'cool, but it's too big to get it out the door. it won't fit. i tried.' and everyone would just shrug and say 'well, that's your problem then.'
and you'd say, 'so what's in the box?' and everyone would just say 'you're not even supposed to have that box.'
anyway one day you open the box and it turns out what was in it the whole time was a version of you from a future where you're happy. and you sit there looking at your curled up fetal future of happiness, and everyone in the house stands there at the door and stares at you in horror.
and they all say, very worried now, 'you're not supposed to have that box. none of us have a box like that'
and you say to all of them, 'well that's your problem then,' and you let your future out.
and that's what happens when you're transgender.
#nota bene: I'm not arguing with the original post! I'm just adding an alternative perspective#there are lots of trans people who can't really identify with the ‘i've always known I was different’ narrative#I was never really forced to perform femininity as a kid so I didn't really feel dysphoria or anything#took me 27 years to come out as trans because I didn't realise that was an option. that I could do that#so that's why I always want to offer up an alternative because I think the narrative that you have to have Always Known™ you were trans#can be damaging because I assumed that trans people are feeling excruciating dysphoria since birth pretty much#and I'm fine so I can't be trans obviously#I don't think it would have been better to be forced to be Properly Female™#and of course my family is happy to watch me grow and change to be more true to myself#so I wouldn't change a thing. but I want to emphasise that you can be trans for euphoria reasons#wanting to be a guy not because you Hate to be a girl but because you prefer to be a guy#secondarily: I like to offer up an alternative to the idea that your family has to be horrified by you coming out as trans#sadly it's true to most people's lived experience! but I think we often define transness by like... misery and dysphoria and rejection#trans people as sufferers and victims who Endure#which leads to thoughts like ‘if I'm not suffering I can't be trans’#or ‘if I'm trans I WILL be rejected by people’#it's perfectly possible to be accepted and respected by pretty much every single person you meet. trust me.

keep in mind that some of the palettes are duplicates or very close to palettes that are already hosted on lospec, and were rejected for that reason. some other pallettes like spaff-8 are literally already hosted on lospec, which makes them not rejected
like, i literally only renamed my antique fish palette to poisson 23 and the palette with the old name is still up on the website as "rejected" despite the fact that i asked a mod to remove it ages ago and that there's 0 other changes (i have other palettes on rejected palettes and i have 0 problem with them)
so before some of yall go out and proclaim the website as some kind of treasure trove of unlimited human potential and rejecting the authoritarian art overlords or whatever. take a step back and realize that both lospec and rejected palettes have flaws.
@meowstic-seer-of-the-future:
Are you a pixel artist looking for a unique challenge? This site collects palettes that were submitted to Lospec and received negative reactions from their members. The rejections range from being perceived as useless for art (pixelart), disorganized, or some other reason. Well, there’s a whole gallery of art made with these palettes, and even a Bounty Hunter applet that picks a random palette nobody has used before, hopefully inspiring you.
#lospec#rejected palettes#using pre-made palettes is eh anyway#making your own palettes is a good exercise#and before anyone calls me a spineless centrist THAT'S MY OPINION!! ™#go out and do literally anything#i just felt the additional info was useful

jungkook fic recs! 💘 part 2
𖤐 Champagne Confetti ⋆ j.jk - @busanboykoo (“you won't regret me, champagne confetti” or maybe just jungkook wants you to tell him what you want him to do to you.)
𖤐 oh how you love longhair!jungkook . . . - @twilghtkoo
𖤐 Your boyfriend looks a little too good in his police uniform. - @badbtssmut
𖤐 e s p r e s s o - @joonberriess (boxer!jk)
𖤐 trippin' over, gettin' lost on you | jjk (m) - @euphorajeon (a visit to the coffee shop you work at rewards jeongguk not only with a cup of coffee and a plate of brownie, but also with something else simmering deep in his veins. a challenge is issued, and all hell breaks loose.)
𖤐 Don’t Blame Me | sugar daddy!jungkook one-shot au - @ctrlsht (You can have everything you want and need as long as you have Jeon Jungkook by your side. You were enjoying everything that Jungkook gives you and as long as you’re with him. You’re sure to yourself that you will never fail him but he was the one who failed you. Everything is fine until he gets too much.)
𖤐 WELCOME TO THE HEARTBREAK SHOW ── jungkook - @numinousher (you’re in love with your partner in class that everyone fears (and loves) due to his stoic facial expression and the way he rejects girls rather harshly. as you get to know him, will he be able to handle your heart that you so willingly gave him to care for or, will he break it due to his hatred for people who are in love with him?)
𖤐 It’s hard to stop but once it starts, it starts - @byuljoonie
𖤐 concrete king. (m) jjk - @bratkook (when a cute boy in a tacky hawaiian shirt lands a trick in your honor theres no way you could ever say no to him)
𖤐 baecation - @1kook (“Lose the top, or lose the right to present yourself in any low back gown for the next three months.” He truly knew the way to your heart.)
𖤐 test your morality (jungkook) - @trivia-yandere (jungkook's morality is tested when he's woken from his unconscious state to find you - his best friend - bound before him.)
𖤐 Needy | jjk oneshot - @jkslipppiercing (your boyfriend often helps you set up for your weekly girls' night...what happens when he gets needy for you only 15 minutes before your girl friends arrive?)
𖤐 ESCAPISM | JJK - @wnderkoo (୨��� lipstick smudged like modern art..)
𖤐 Vérités Cachées (JJK) - @bangtanficsforyou (You try to make an escape from a beast, that you happen to have encountered while on a vacation with your boyfriend.)
𖤐 lonely hearts club (m) - @dovechim (jeon jeongguk has annoying little brother energy™. you know this deep in your bones. wedding after wedding, you keep running into him at the goddamn singles’ table, and he just won’t leave you alone. until you start to wonder... is he your ticket out of the lonely hearts club?)
𖤐 By Its Cover (M) - @gimmesumsuga (The one where Jungkook makes a horrifically bad first impression.)
𖤐 The Deepest Marks of Essence - @lleldey (When you found yourself circled by a tribe, you never thought it would lead you to tap into your deepest wants and desires. You are the oldest child, the example of how one should act at all costs, but if you ever manage to escape this maze and if your story ever becomes told, you’ll never be looked at the same. But it’s hard to regret it when your nights are spent with gentle caresses and starry midnight skies. You got everything you secretly longed for, but at what cost?)
𖤐 every hour, every minute. (m) - @aajjks (jungkook can be an animal when it comes to fucking you sensless.)
𖤐 ONCE AGAIN, MILAN ! - (nsfw) - @frmisnow (what happens when you and jungkook find yourselves once again in milan, this time with no business attached — well a hol' lotta sex for sure!)
