In lieu of lamenting about my phone's not-so-sudden move to that big farm upstate, I will be reblogging cute girls.
Surely you understand.

Jokes on you I actually think Connor visiting his dead dad is really healthy. He's finding peace. He's doing what he needs to do in order to completely come to term with Logan's death. If that means spending time with his dead dad in order to accept things and move on and live for himself (rather than whatever the fuck Ken, Rom, and Shiv are up to) then good for him.
#connor roy#succession hbo#fr people tryna make fun of him for this#im curious - not tryna gatkeep grief - but have any of the peeps talking shit on him... like have u experienced loss of someone close?#and important to you?#cos like#we all grieve in different ways#and there's nothing wrong with going and visit them and say goodbye to their face before it's buried and you never get to see it again#the closest you'll get is a photo afterwards yknow#it's not like Connor is getting Logan's body and waltzing with it#he's going and sitting with him#and he might even go and visit him at his grave too#and like we all grieve differently#but whatever he's doing is working cos he's literally behaving the most Normal out of all the siblings#whereas he's usually painted to look looney#we all grieve differently and he's doing what he needs to and it's not hurting anyone#and Connor isn't hurting anyone outside of his grieving

One time my sister and I brought a deck of Uno cards to the cemetery and we lost to our Dad
The man is fucking dead! Me and my sister had to take turns playing his cards for him! How did we lose!?
don't y9u think it's kind of fucked up and immoral that you go walking around dead people's resting places for fun
do i think going for a walk in a cemetery that's open to the public 24/7 with a footpath and garden and everything is fucked up and immoral? no??? what the fuck???????????
#people are allowed to have fun in cemeteries#we all grieve in different ways#and even if you aren’t visiting someone at the cemetery you’re still allowed to walk around!#my local cemetery doesn’t have a garden but it still got a walking path and I like to check out the tombstone#and it’s fun seeing the new reefs and bouquets people get for their loved ones#people are allowed to be happy#like obviously if people are gathered around a grave your not gonna just waltz on up there and say hello people know there manners#let the man go for his walk he’s not hurting anyone#I don’t think there is a significant way to tell the difference between someone passing though a cemetery and another who is visiting#they could be waking to a grave or just left a grave#or they could just be walking around you can’t tell just by looking at them so people (like myself) don’t feel the need to-#-dress very formal when visiting someone and others (also myself included) like to dress very formally at random and two non-formal events#grave#sematary

I want it back / I drag its dead weight forward.
#Better drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#digital art#This was a style experimentation doodle that took on a life of its own.#In a way it is a great example of 'beautiful failure'. The original goal was to try a pure black and white contrast piece.#Which I very much failed at doing. Not quite ready for that! However what this turned into is something I like a lot!#Different but in a way that really pushed me as an artist. A little less simple; a little more proportional.#I was also recently thinking about LWJ's grieving that we only catch glimpses of.#LWJ grieved his first love for 13 years. His love that was never reciprocated.#He chose to dedicate his heart to that mourning and most painfully of all - he did so knowing there was no end to that grief.#Wei Wuxian comes back to life in MDZS but that is an exception. Not the expectation.#He was dead. Not missing. Not 'maybe in hiding'. He was dead and his spirit unreachable.#Jiang Cheng went forwards with denial but LWJ takes that grief on. He copes by continuing to carry the weight with him.#Let me be clear. Neither are healthy approaches. It is a way to cope but it does not mean that is healing or healthy.#Grief is loved transformed but it is also about endurance and letting go. Grief can change you. You can also change your grief.#It isn't a good or evil thing to experience. It is just an experience.

the fact that people still use the "no one would talk to a friend that way" "no one would grieve for someone like that if it was just platonic" etc arguments to prove a ship is canon is so annoying to me. yes i get it, we got queerbaited hard but where does it say that romance has to be higher than a friendship or no one said friends couldn't also be lovers or vice versa....? i normally say "popular media tropes that usually are for romance" when i talk about fiction but pulling a blanket statement like "NO ONE talks to a friend that way" is so invalidating to so much of our queer experiences. the beauty of queer friendship literally lies in the emotional fulfilment we get from our friends in a way that i don't normally see in cishet friendships for whatever reasons. so idk it's just been bothering me to see these kinds of posts every now and then. "you wouldn't do [x] for your friends" i would actually. i would sell my soul for them. i would kill for them and kill myself for them. i would do anything for my friends that i would do for a partner. the "proof" for a ship doesn't have to be by invalidating their friendship. also like aren't most of the ships so powerful when they're also each other's closest friends? do y'all not think of your partners as your best friends?
#sorry for the rant#i know that popular media tropes have changed our mindset on romqnce#it wasn't a thing in my country but now the dating scene is so westernised that it's the same here#im not saying people can't experience romance or friendship differently#in the context of queer people specifically i've noticed that most people struggle to differentiate between platonic and romantic feelings#and often feel a mixture of both or somewhere outside both#it's intense! Regardless#I'm also trying not to invalidate romance or people that experience it totally separately from friendships#but i genuinely wonder#do you stop being friends with the person you're dating#how does thay make sense#them not being your bestest friend?#anyways I'm aroace and in a qpr#maybe i'm just a little sensitive#but queer people also talking in a very heteronormative of looking at romance also confuses me#are we really putting a tag on how much someone grieves???#first of all human relationships dont work that way!!#there's no need to place them in different positions#it's not a competition#every relationship is unique to the two people involved in it#only they can categorize their relationship not outsiders

Au in which Danny dies visibly in public but bc he's a half ghost he doesn't like, die *die* he comes back but people saw so whoops guess I'm dead for real and he hides away for a bit until like a week later or whatever comedic timing is better he just appears back at his house and if someone ask he's not Danny the guy who died last week he's uh Jonny the newly adopted Fenton kid
#if u ask jazz about him she fake cries about being insensitive about her dead brother how dare u say that hes still here#we all grieve in different ways but acting like that is a bad coping mechanism and its rude to the family and#what am i on i have to get to class and im barely awake#danny phantom#ac

Currently feeling a bit feral over the fact that Natalia means Christmas Day - as in the birth of Jesus Christ and Bucks story is so heavily leaning into the birth death and resurrection of Christ - the saviour - as a central part of his narrative arc. Her presence is literally about the birth of buck - as in processing his grief about why he was born - as a saviour baby.
#Buck hasn’t processed that trauma that dates back to his birth#he was never allowed to grieve the brother he didn’t know he had#and then he was in a coma where he created this version of Daniel - a deep rooted trauma response in itself#but that’s brought the Daniel of it all closer to the surface of his concious#and he needs to process and grieve and allow himself to move on from that#and I think Natalia the death doula is a key part of this - because she is ideally situated to help him process that specific trauma#this isn’t so much about his own recent brush with death (although it’s part of it) it’s about going back to the beginning and processing#he needs to deal with the Daniel of it all before he can deal with everything else#in the same way we had Eddie going back to his own root trauma - with his father - and processing and dealing with things#via frank. this is just Buck taking a different path which will have a similar outcome#yes Buck May date her as he goes through this process but ultimately he’s attracted to her metaphysically - because she can help him#not because he’s actually attracted to her romantically#also the show has doesn’t too much time recently showing us the buddifer family - to ensure we can see where things are heading#before it continues to process their trauma#thinky thoughts#911 spoilers#911 on fox#911 fox#911onfox#evan buckley

I think as we grow up, we have to be really conscious of romanticizing the world we grew up in in order to scorn how the next generations are growing up.
Nostalgia isn't inherently bad, but especially in political spaces, be very wary of this idea that there is an Ideal Past we must Harken Back To.
It sucks to feel left behind, but such is the human condition. It isn't bad to feel nostalgic, but that doesn't mean that these new generations are inherently "lost" and "need to be saved (by you)", and I think that is very important to remember and try to be conscious of.
#politics#'the world you grew up in no longer exists' frankly... GOOD!#the world i personally grew up in was scary and lonely and traumatizing. no kid today should STILL be growing up like that#the whole 'nostalgia as a poltical means' is rooted in this idea that...#1) we all grew up in a hegemony 2) we all turned out the same 3) the way we grew up had more privileges afforded to us#and i personally like nostalgia! i like watching videocamera videos from 2005 and looking up super specific shit#but nostalgia does not a good world make#INSERT UMBERTO ECO'S FOURTEEN POINTS ON FASCISM#(though i don't always think nostalgia can lead to this in a political sense there is a fine line)#be very mindful of what motivates nostalgiaposting#is it because people miss childhood and how 'simple' it felt? or is there a different reason that motivates this type of posting?#are you romanticizing childhood to the point you are not remembering your childhood /at all/ but the *idea* of it?#and honestly it is SO jarring when my peers are nostalgic because it's like... we aren't even that old!!#it comes across like... the world is hard and it's getting harder and so we cannot chnage and must wistfully think of the past...#...and to me it comes across as almost... doomerist in how end-stage feelings of nostalgia and hopelessness seen#i feel compassion for the impulse to feel like your old life is over and you need to grieve it...#...but certainly that isn't the younger generations fault? especially because WE are now the ones rasing them and we still yet live#(even at our completely decrepit age of not even close to a mid-life crisis (sarcasm and lighthearted))

There are so many thoughts.
I can't imagine being asked to make a statement when you are just beginning to navigate news yourself.
Grief is a funny thing. It shows up in so many ways. It pops up when you least expect it, and sometimes, you're numb when you think you should be sobbing. I think grief, to a degree, lasts a lifetime. It's a love, a heartbreak that will always be a part of the tapestry of your life.
If feel like this will become a thread, because thoughts, opinions, emotions, morph and evolve over time and I want to honor that.
Also unlike childhood, time is limited in ways that make grief inconvenient, where there isn't enough time, even though sometimes what we need is to sit in it.
#please take care while reading#we all grieve different#we all want to be heard#and our grief wants to be acknowledged#but we all grieve in different ways#I think the majority of people are intentional not to hurt others during times of grief#but even with the best of intentions#things can land poorly#Liam payne#a grief thread#10/17/24#9:42 pm

i love my sister and for the most part, we are very close and genuinely like each other a lot but the one place where i'd just really, really, really like to see inside her brain is the part where she is still incredibly comfortable and cheerful—and even thinks it's really funny—talking about how much she didn't like me as a child while I'm like. yes. I am and was aware. and it sucked so so so much
#we had a really wild moment over dinner last week where she actually acknowledged#EXPLICITLY with her OWN WORDS#that things like our brother dying right when i was going into my senior yr of high school#and covid lockdown starting right when i'd graduated college + moved to a new city where i knew no one except her + was applying/auditionin#for jobs#were harder on me than one her in some unique ways#and i was literally like . is. is this a test? am i supposed to deny it?#bc like when our brother died she told me i was a selfish brat (for not grieving the way she did)#and during covid she told me (right after i got laid off) that she had ''way more reasons to be depressed'' than i did#personal#anyway she was laughing so much as she said this (abt not liking me) and i was just staring at her nodding slightly like#yeah. i know. i know you didn't like me#do YOU know how much it sucks to know that your older sister--whom you idolize--who you *desperately* want to like you--#not only doesn't like you at all#but even up into high school/college#would talk about how she couldn't wait till our LITTLE (five year old) cousins were old enough to hang because they'd be so much fun#and know that she had absolutely never thought or said that about you#do you perhaps! think that might still have ramifications on our relationship to this day#if your little sister spent 20+ years knowing that your love was conditional on them being the person you wanted her to be#like. do u???#(the answer is no of course but#i remain boggled by the fact that this eludes her considering she is! in fact! a really smart person!)#it's also like when i was first offered my current job#and our now bosses asked both of us like ''are you worried at all about working with your sister?''#and she laughed like lol no of course not?#while i was like ''honestly yes.'' adskjfglkjasds#very different perspectives sometimes

thinking about tena taking the photos of her children out of the frames and burning them before she died and mulder’s first reaction being “this is all she had left of us”
and how he could’ve said “this is all she had left of her,” but he didn’t, and he’s right. it is all there was left of them. all there was left of two kids playing baseball and arguing over a board game. all there was left of him before he was walking into the same room every day, before he was chasing ghosts, before no one talked about it.
all there was left of there being nothing to chase, of being still, of being a whole person to someone, knowing where you stand in the world.
it’s all she had left of her children, together and complete for some of the last times, and it’s crime scene evidence to cover up.
#it really puts the way that he constantly has photos of the 2 of them everywhere in a different perspective tbh#one of my favorite things about mulder as a character is the way that he does see samantha as a full person#not just a quest or in relation to him#and he has photos of her alone too#her school photo on the wall#her on the jungle gym on his desk at the office AND at home#but there are photos of the two of them everywhere#and those are the ones that he carries with him and that we see him pick up and hold and grieve and cry over#all that’s left of who they both were#of who HE was#thinking of that audries fic#‘the mulder with a missing limb’#sein und zeit

Today I did something for palestine and then I went to a car boot sale and got a 🚨€15 book case 🚨. Then I built some planters to plant my courgettes in and I fed the birds and I cooked raspberry brownies and broccoli and egg fried rice. I listened to my audiobook and went for a walk. And the whole time I was dwelling more than I should on old friends I don't speak with anymore (for good reason). Feeling lonely and in pain and also judging myself for feeling so lonely and in pain. Because of the good reason. But what does judging myself achieve! Loneliness and pain can be tools we use. I used mine to make brownies which i'm bringing to a friend who could use them. And to sing with my partner in the kitchen. and to bring the bookcase in from the car.
#Grieving those friendships is grieving the life I had before the pandemic. Who we all were then.#My life then was different from my life now. Better in some ways and worse in others.#The person I really wish I could talk to is me from 5 years ago. I miss her.#FUCK it! I also miss my friends#I miss who they were before we spent 4 years growing apart#Leonard Cohen was right! About everthing ultimately!#Me Fein#Still. A pretty good Sunday.

I actually like the last chapter. I think the ideas are very good. I have my qualms on how some things were managed, as I always do, but I think shonen authors get tangled in the expectations of a shonen to the point it jeopardises their writing, often even when they're not lacking in skills
#I think the nothingness‚ the absence‚ the moving on despite everything‚... is a good if heartbreaking idea#and we do see snippets of it throughout the entire manga‚ yet I think it is mostly lacking in execution#I like the quiet ways in which we see the characters mourn. How Megumi laughs at the letter‚#how Shoko muses about how Satoru should have let her take care of Geto's body‚ the faint smile when Megumi agrees‚#how Shoko quits smoking again‚ Yuuji giving this person hope and a second chance‚ making a reference to him not being executed‚#and giving Sukuna too a chance for him to take one day a different path#All those are very good ideas and all those are very moving quiet ways of grieving. But. It feels in general so lacking#There's so much of everything else in contrast‚ even things that have way less importance narratively than this most of the time‚#that it feels lacking. Especially with how one has to dig to find these things. There's so much that could have been done with the same idea#And done so much better. But the idea is good. The absences are good. The quiet presences are good.The nothingness is good if bitter and sad#But it could have been written better#I also think this ending with Yuuji apparently knowing about Sukuna‚ his lies‚ his little hint of softness‚ the potential second path‚...#makes even more believable why he'd try at all to offer him a second chance. And I love that Yuuji knows him and I love that he still...#leaves the door open for that second chance to occur at some point. Trusting that Sukuna would walk that other path next time#And I love that without openly acknowledging Gojo he demonstrates that he hasn't forgotten him in his acting#How he gives that guy a second chance‚ how he jokes about him not getting executed‚ how he wants to make sure people‚ 'problem children'‚#don't get left behind. He doesn't mimick Gojo in his power but in this flippant but caring aspect and thus he's not forgotten#I do like this. It's heartbreaking. Gojo's desire to be forgotten is bittersweet as it's in a way a desire for... normalcy and humanity#To be surpassed. It goes well with how Gege says Gojo can do anything and thus why he does nothing‚ not even hobbies‚#to leave something for the future generations and not being another wall in their achievements#Gojo's desire to be forgotten is in line with the constancy of his writing when it comes to being drunk on his status#and yet resentful of his loneliness. It's a mix of being left behind and not being left behind#For being left behind and forgotten would mean he is more like the rest. Just another step forwards#And he'd have done what he wanted to achieve. Sorcerers can't stop a long while to grieve but Yuuji takes his words and actions#into consideration and steps forwards. Does the same. Fulfills Gojo's expectations. Walks towards the future. And that's the legacy Gojo#wanted and not going down in history as a legend or the strongest. He was just a teacher. Like Yaga was. He was not even the principal#Just a teacher. His role‚ the role he chose for himself‚ has been fulfilled. Now all this could have done way better#Something of Yuta and Megumi given their dynamics with Gojo would have been good. But I guess Gojo's 'at least one' works well#with Yuuji being the one doing the work. Yuuji was also ontologically alienated since birth and still he too remained cheerful and flippant#despite being so lonely so I guess the final parallel is intentional. But it could have been managed better still. The idea is good though
