No because you don't understand...

I left my spot in front of the fan to do my hair in the bathroom for 5 minutes. I had completely dried after my shower. I could have put my clothes on and it would have been fine. I come back and try to get dressed and my clothes just stick to my skin again. Are we fucking joking?

#I hate this #I need the weather to go back to like 21°c already #I can't keep doing this #and before you're like #Oh in x country it's like 41°c #I don't care #I'm English #I'm sweaty #I'm fat #and I'm allowed to complain #GAH #mel rambles

"oh just let people have fun let people enjoy things"

no. everyone has to do what i want forever. no fucking fun allowed no enjoyment. things are only socially acceptable if i personally approve of them. fuck you.

#in reality im actually so sick of the “just let people enjoy things” whenever anyone complains about something harmless they find annoying #people are allowed to do whatever they want but i am allowed to be annoyed and bitch a little as long as i'm not directly being mean to the #as long as you're not being a huge dick to people personally then you're allowed to complain about things you don't like #and if other people can't handle me not liking something then that's their problem. i don't have to like you. that's fine.#you can enjoy things as much as you want. i just don't have to like it.#panic talks

its so funny to me that davekat has BEEN canon since Homestuck ended yet there are still people who are like "i hate post canon... but at least davekat is canon!". so they actually got shoved back into the closet!

#I'm not entirely complaining abt davekat being retconned tho #them not being in a relationship at the beginning of post canon allowed for some of my favorite bits of characterization to happen!#and also commander karkat 🤤🤤🤤#oh my god who the FUCK just said that #and also meat timeline davekat is awesome ok #june's silly homestuck thoughts

i went up the mountain and saw a lot of wombat poo. there was some snow which was super lovely. I'm really glad i brought my cane because i was a bit wobbly. i stuck my cane in the snow to hold it in place while taking photos lol

here is Dewey (very creative name) enjoying the mountain snow

#my post #not described #glad my mum wasn't there she gets really weird about my cane #because apparently if I'm not in expensive physiotherapy I'm not allowed to complain about being sore or tired

I am so unbelievably pissed off. FUCK HOAs

Oh, my trash/recycling bin can't be visible except on pickup day? Ok whatever fine I hate you but I can deal with this

Weekly inspections?????? FU FU FU FU FU

SECOND NOTICE ALSO WE'RE CHARGING YOU MONEY TO SEND YOU CERTIFIED MAIL OF THIS TOTALLY LEGIT TOTALLY SECOND NOTICE OF WHAT IS ACTUALLY A VIOLATION cue me: checks notes. Hmm. My recycling bin was. on the curb. on recycling pickup day. You know. The day it has to be out. The day it is motherfucking ALLOWED TO BE FUCKING OUT AND VISIBLE.

so. 1) not a violation

I have sent them the trash AND recycling pickup schedules, which are DIFFERENT, btw

I have disputed the fact of the violation

I have disputed the linking of this "violation" to a previous violation MONTHS AGO--their "first notice" in this case was a "Courtesy Notice" LITERALLY 5 MONTHS AGO and they've done so many inspections since then and my bin CLEARLY WASN'T OUT IN THOSE INTERVENING MONTHS so WTMFH

So I am posting like a crazy person here instead of sending the absolutely deranged email I almost sent (I did send a slightly less deranged version with the disputes, and requesting a hearing)

OMG. It has been. Less than one hour since I learned this fun fun news. My bin was out YESTERDAY, y'all. YESTERDAY. I am going to blow a gasket

#it's a relatively privileged problem to have (omg i have a home truly i am grateful) but it's still a goddamned problem and i'm allowed #to fucking complain about it #in case it needs to be said #*rolling my eyes*#i advocate for free/actually affordable housing for everyone who needs it because we ALL deserve a safe secure stable home #whatever type of home that may be #it is absolutely goddamned ridiculous that megacorps can buy all the housing #rent it out at extortionate rates and evict people willy nilly #and we're talking about a “housing crisis” and not a “STOP LETTING CORPORATIONS AND BILLIONAIRES HOARD ALL THE HOUSING” crisis #goddamn.#ha elect me president (ahaha don't do this i am not a good public speaker) and I'll push congress to pass some really neat legislation #hey be more direct: elect me to congress (ahaha don't do this) and i'll WRITE some goddamn nifty legislation and yell about it as long and #as loud as i can until people start to just fucking say yes to make me shut the fuck up #(i know that's not how it works. again. don't actually elect me to a government position)#exemplia gratis:#No individual person shall own more than 6 homes UNLESS they pay a Housing Market Shrinkage Fee for removing viable housing from the market #why 6 and not 2? 2 is a lot! it's excessive! but having A vacation home shouldn't be a crime. Having 5 vacation homes is ridiculous and #awful and whatever but it's not likely to be the source of all our greatest “housing shortage” problems. no. I'm aiming for the absolutely #monstrously greedy and egregious motherfuckers who---ok #hang on. how many homes does the average min and max homeowner own? I would like to see data on that. but anyway #the next part of the legislation:#Homes owned >6 shall be charged X% Housing Market Shrinkage Fee UNLESS they are rented for affordable (15% or less than renter net income)#housing and are actively occupied by said renters. Rented out and charging more than 15% of renter's net? still gotta pay up.#EMPTY housing >6 shall be subject to an additional Y% Housing Market Shrinkage Fee (tax? should I call it a tax?) which increases with ever #month that the housing goes unoccupied. no one living in it? sell it rent it or pay the fuck up. and still pay the fuck up if you rent it #for way too goddamn much money #but like. less. we only REALLY hate you if you sit on empty houses that you don't even let anyone use #ok that's individuals. now onto BUSINESSES #ok so immediately it gets a little complicated cuz like presumably there's rental management businesses that don't own the rental propertie #that they manage BUT there are also companies that just outright own a shitfuckton of housing and THIS is the truly egregious monstrous sid

"The Wyll haters are inescapable," an essay by me, ft this side conversation in Devora Wilde's bg3 stream:

What if you shut your mouth. What if.

#I'm sorry I really don't like to complain in fandom spaces. But my Wyll fans. Please come commersiate with me I was fuming.#And for context! This is dev talking about how cool it was to meet Wyll! Why are you idiots coming in from that moment with this????#“Said no one ever” what if you were a fucking moron. Huh?#Also if you pretend like mizora is at all cool or sexy or awesome but hate Wyll? Fuck you.#You're actually allowed to like mizora. That's perfectly fine. If you /only like mizora???#Please think about your bias for just like one moment.#I swear.#Not saying anything revolutionary but like. If you don't like a character. I do think you just need to shut up.#Don't like Wyll? Keep it to yourself? Gale? Keep it to yourself. Lae'zel? Fucking Astarion? Please just be quiet.#wyll ravengard #wyll bg3 #bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #fandom

....why are the youtube comments so mad lol don't y'all like to have fun. don't we like to have fun here

#ari speaks #half of them are 'wahhh this is what happens when you make games WOKE' like. baby. shhhh. it's not dark fantasy enough for you???#like we are allowed to have varied opinions but also idk. dragon age has always had moments of being a lil silly. especially inquisition.#titsicles???? the nug king???? i'm attacking your holdfast with a goat????? cmon now.#we DO get a little silly here and i'm really not opposed to (well-placed) tonal irreverence in a world about to end.#bitch the world we are CURRENTLY living in is falling apart and i am also being a silly fucking guy because it's all i got.#if i lived in thedas irl i'd be in taverns getting tomatoes thrown at me for bad stand-up about kirkwall HAVE SOME FUN LIVE A LITTLE.#also bc it's been so long one has to imagine that they're also trying to grab some new fans here so it does not surprise me #that the trailer is not 'Boo Hoo Sad Times Dark Fantasy Game No. 49' (i say as an enjoyer of depressing dark fantasy)#esp when all of the prior promotional material has been very doom and gloom.#i don't think that just because the game is being marketed like this/that we're switching focus from solas that the game will be #sanitized and not dealing with any kind of fucked up lore and shit. i am holding out hope that we're going to get some cool opportunities #to play in a space that is def dark but can still give room to breathe.#anyway i do not actually giv a fuck (genuine not insulting) if the trailer did not make u excited das ok.#unless you're complaining that it's woke garbage now/so bad because g*ider is uninvolved. if thats the case you may fuck off.#sorry for the tag essay!

i'm serious though that people online have got to stop looking at posts and trying to therapize the op and anyone who relates to it. "that's not a healthy way to think" "you just need to do it" maybe not, maybe so, but ultimately who cares??? people are allowed to express their unhealthy, maybe self-pitying, maybe nihilistic posts on their blog. they aren't asking you for advice. they do not know you. you are not their therapist nor are you even their friend. they are not having a conversation, they are venting on their own personal space. if you find these posts annoying just block the post or the op and move on. no one wants to hear your thoughts on someone's mental health when you don't even fucking know them or their situation

#people in the replies of that childhood bedroom post further back in my blog #'dungeons are only like $15' okay first of all not everyone has access to fucking sex dungeons (maybe geographically or physically)#secondly that can be a lot for some people. okay.#thirdly that's a small part of what the post is actually saying #and the other people saying 'you just need to do it' you don't know op #you don't know them! !! you don't!!!#'your friends are probably not living these fantastical lives' probably not but not the point of the post!#and also people are allowed to vent about things that might not be true!#i'm using this post as an example but it's really fucking everywhere #you can't express a negative or depressed opinion on here without people trying to make it positive #or some 'pick yourself up by the bootstraps' shit but make it mental health related #like the fucking 'heres the life i've always longed for' ~sequel~ that i complain about all the time

#The forbidden extra panels that're like ''And misgendering people is a shitty thing to do'' / ''That also makes sense'' before the last two #I'm sorry I'm choosing violence today #Look I'm not saying you have to call him Crocodad specifically or anything #Its just the seeming insistence FROM THE CISHETS to misgender him at every opportunity that just 💢💢💢#Another one is when people speculate about him being trans to begin with but instead of discussing whether or not he's trans #No it's a debate whether or not he's aCtUaLlY a fEmAlE #I swear to god #It's the whole Discussing Gender With Trans People vs Discussing Gender With Cis People-meme #And it drives me up the walls.

DANG, Mk fans do be eating this year, we are blessed with the miracle Kid in a new outfit~

#Which he will have featured for the new TCG they're making #But gd; it's about time he was allowed to wear something different #Maybe one day he could wear a smaller top hat instead of a stovepipe; but I'm not complaining

The concept of queerbaiting annoys me. I was told that it refers to a work of fiction pretending to cater to a queer audience but then pulling back from it to avoid alienating homophobes, which is an incredibly specific thing. But a lot of people seem to think that it instead means "any time there's any gay subtex, metaphor, or ambiguity" or "whenever something from 1995-2012 was being a normal amount of homophobic for the era."

#I've secondhand seen the way Sherlock...was.#And yeah that's very pointedly cruel to the audience.#But not everything is that aware of its following to point by point mock them for half an hour.#And I think people forget that for a period there was a unique combination of awareness of gay people and homophobia bad #and a severe need to avoid being perceived as gay (and sometimes homophobic) at the same time #while it was ALSO very acceptable to treat the existence of gay people and homophobia or discomfort with both as a joke #so that whole wink wink nudge nudge dance was a huge thing in some of the 90s and earlier 2000s #and sometimes by doing that people accidentally made it seem even more fucking gay.#Or on purpose. People also forget that yeah gay people could exist as a joke but they couldn't be casual protags or w/e.#It wasn't really done like that.#I think what it's really proof of is that the 90s/early 2000s is long enough ago that people have become illiterate to the cultural cues.#When comedians complain 'you cant make jokes anymore' sometimes this is the exact thing they're referring to.#Gay people being on TV or in books isn't some funny joke you make anymore. Just being gay or seen as gay isn't the punchline it used to be.#People are shitty about it still but it's in a different way now. Being gay isn't as much the big embarrassment it used to be.#Gay tv shows and books are a whole market now. And stuff like Sherlock or supernatural were made right in the middle of that shift.#It's the only way you could position a strategy like this. I don't know if that cultural moment really exists anymore.#Audience backlash is also more massive and in real time.#Now instead of mockery at the idea of idk Dr house md being gay conservatives would see it as a 'culture war' thing.#And non conservatives are more vocal and more liable to criticize. TV shows are seen as keepers of culture in ways they weren't before.#I don't know how to describe it exactly. I'm not an expert and I know I'm missing some pieces or things I wanted to point out.#But yeah I just think people kind of. Forgot how people treated gayness as some kind of cootie disease you had to say #You didn't have really hard all the time. People are still sort of like that but idk the language changed.#A lot of talk about homophobia and queerness is very pseudo-academic now. The distancing happens with different signifiers.#But. Yeah.#☠️#I also think queerbaiting requires a specific kind of intent as a marketing strategy.#Instead of the more likely 'well we have an unintended gay following now so I guess we can throw in some fanservice #the network would literally never allow us to do anything with it even if we wanted to though.'

I'm reading poetry at 1 am and spiraling over like 45 emotions at once, which is how poetry was meant to be enjoyed, I think

#hella off topic in tags again lol #current list of favorites:#The Kiss by Stephen Dunn #Connubial by Stephen Dunn #Rain by Raymond Carver #the lesson of the moth by Don Marquis #May to December by Megan Fernandes (I need to buy her book at some point)#The Woman Who Turned Down a Date with a Cherry Farmer by Aimee Nezhukumatathil #and I Like My Body When It Is With Your by E.E. Cummings.#I do not CAREEEEEEEEE if any of this is low-brow poetry. I do not know what high-brow high-quality poetry even is and I'm fine with that.#all I care about is if it makes me feel things and if I personally like it ❤️. I do this for fun and not to rip it apart because it's 'bad'#i've spent too much time around pretentious literary people and that shit seems exhausting! ngl!!!#I have no interest in it. even if what I love is garbage then at least I love it #and I am not just pretending to love it because it makes me look smarter or whatever.#it's one thing if you're autopsying poems out of love for literary analysis and criticism or for a degree #but nothing gets me more than people who ruin others' enjoyment of simple things just to feel above them.#like oh? you like better poetry than me? you care more about feeling smart than enjoying things? should we throw a party? should I call CNN #sorry 😭 this got so salty but pretentious people really tick me off. I've met far too many of them #and I am PERFECTLY HAPPY with my trash interests! I am a raccoon! I love trashy things! thank you very much!#ok i'm going to sleep now though because in true 1 am fashion I am not staying on topic lol.#I tryyyyy to keep complaining/negativity to a minimum here but whatever. I am allowed to have this lol #I like my maybe-bad-poetry-but-i-wouldn't-know. I like bad 90s music. I like campy-ass batshit 2009 FFN fics. I like taco bell. amen.

I know that giving myself permission to have thoughts instead of them being stopped by the editor in my head before I even know they're there is a sign of healing but damn, I'm a petty bitch sometimes with some real unchecked biases. Is this what everyone else has been hearing and grappling with their whole lives or.

#There's so much complaining in there and honestly I'm not mad about it #Like I'm just grateful to be able to hear my own thoughts but wow we've just been flying by impulse without conscious thought #This whole time huh #I'm learning I'm allowed to think 'that's stupid' as a knee jerk reaction #So long as I'm open to seeing why it isn't #Which I always have been but it's been at the cost of knowing what I really think before someone explains you know?#It's okay for thoughts to be rude and messy so long as they are filtered before they hit the mouth #And because I've been self censoring so long the ability to control that is going surprisingly well

I am glad that my ex best friend and I are talking again, but I still feel like we are still stuck

#it's just...#I'm not sure if I'm allowed to complain or if I'm overreacting #before we took a break... she was doing pretty bad and i thought i was there and i tried to help her whenever #and i always felt like she was unloading her stuff onto me #which is fair because i wanted her to do it i wanted to help her and take care of her #but i often felt like i wasn't allowed to do the same #and even after i was brave enough to tell her that... things didn't change #and i know I'm an idiot because i want her to ask me how i am and i want her to be there #but if she ever asked I'd say 'it's nothing'#god idk if that even makes sense #I'm just... i feel so selfish for asking for anything #and... is that how it's supposed to be? idk #txt.#personal
