for fandom discourse meme: neubauten

"Tell me a fandom you know I’m involved with and I’ll tell you my least favourite bit of discourse associated with that fandom"

(Note: "you" here means people in general, not you specifically, OP.)

I would love, well and truly, to have a more original and interesting answer than "the Blixa's gender/pronouns discourse", but... the Blixa's gender/pronouns discourse. I say that knowing I helped instigate the latter portion of that discourse. It's just tiring. For one, if Blixa really cared about not being seen as nonbinary, xe would have disavowed "Seven Screws" ages ago. Xe would have disavowed Tabula Rasa ages ago. Xe would have disavowed "Seele brennt" ages ago. For another, as far as pronouns go... either believe me about them or don't. It really does not matter. Blixa does not care if people use he/him for him. Xe also does not care if you use any other set of pronouns for xem. (Personally, I favour xe/xem and she/her for xem because of reasons—and yes, I have addressed Blixa with xe/xem, and xe was totally fine with it. Again, yes, you will have to take my word for it—it's up to you if you do or don't.) If me using pronouns other than he/him for Blixa bothers you, just block me. It's so easy to block me! You are not personally protecting Blixa from ✨the crazy genderists✨ by bugging me about it.

(Aside: Tabula Rasa has so much gender going on)

🌹 for Albert and Ellis methinks! What dastardly things will they get up to!

Maybe less Dastardly, more Swashbuckly?

From the "50 questions just because" list:

Do you have any keychains on your home or car keys? Describe them!

The one I actually use I got for christmass from an aunt forever ago and haven't really bothered to swap out since - just a novelty bottle opener in the shape of one of those big old timey keys.

I believe this was the unpopular opinion meme; correct me if I'm wrong.

I don't have that many unpopular opinions to share, I already voiced the "controversial creek take" multiple times and I don't want to anymore.

So, how about this.

The Internet used to be much more... Chill. If someone didn't like the things you did, they would block you and move on. Callouts were rarer and usually only for an actual reason and not because you shipped something 'icky'. Dramas were usually resolved in private, and everyone just went on about their business. It was fun, you didn't have to tiptoe your way around everyone, and I'm only talking about time a decade ago. The biggest insult someone could throw at you back then was calling your OTP a NOTP.

oh?? gamedev arc?? maybe one day make nano game...? 👀

gonna be honest and admit that when i started I haven't thought of it, BUT then remembered that Nano was gonna be first a game when I was 8-10, went to comic since I saw the game thing too difficult to be real. I still do-!

i've put thought into it, and Nano is my STUPID baby. I think i would like to (in the good case that I can actually one day put two pieces of code together lmao) Do smaller games first, to build up my skills, to be able to make the idea I want true.

Im reading a lot of shit already and trying to learn math(skull emoji) I got a BIG list of lil projects to work on already-! Silly ideas that i keep rounding up the more i learn!Its fun

If my brain allows it, Nano game, will be a yes (I can dream) But first others will come, and I hope yall enjoy them aswell-!<3 I'll be sharing more about them when I can finally put things together by myself-!

But for now, theyre all just thought bubbles that I keep getting excited to share with everyone one day!

From going through your fmk tag, I've learned that you definitely have a type and it's definitely large men with long(possibly fluffy) hair.

Shhhhhh! It wasn't a secret but shhhhhh!

For the book questionnaire, 17 please?

17. Top five books of the year

In no particular order:

Detransition, Baby by Torrey Peters. Oof. A much-needed addition to the conversation as well as just a great novel. Absolutely turned me inside out. Also a great demonstration of how it’s possible to write ~diverse characters who are also extremely flawed people, take notes. 

Zwischen Koran und Kafka by Navid Kermani. It tapped into all my favourite nerdery subjects in the exact way I enjoy (well. I profoundly disagreed with the theatre chapter :P) -- as well as providing some much-needed healing regarding public discourse shit I found extremely upsetting at the time it was written. Very glad to have found another strong immigrant voice in Germany (the fact that he’s a great writer doesn’t hurt).

Girlhood by Julia Copus. Sometimes the best poet you���ve read in a while is someone you’ve randomly pulled off the library shelf? I mean just 

“Adolf Büker, it was not the soldier in you but the lover who shaped my life. I think of him now, the morning you left for war. Your new young wife beside you doesn't know yet how the story goes. Your final battle tucked in the future still, she is laying the breakfast unaware that already my sweetheart's grandmother is safely landed inside her - meaning I live not in some other world but here in this one in which your great grandson returns each evening at the end of both our working days, and the light bounces off my glass any ordinary morning [...].”

hello I’m sobbing 

Paper Towns by John Green. Look, I know, but to my own surprise, John Green doesn’t suck actually. He might be a little repetitive across his body of work, but I enjoyed this first take I’ve read on this kinda story. 

The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying up by Marie Kondo. I actually didn’t find the book on its own a perfect explanation of her method, the Netflix series and also reading about people’s experiences with it did a lot of work, but I’m letting it stand for my discovery of re-organizing my life. I didn’t become a strict disciple of anything, be it the konmari method or minimalism, but the idea of considering whether items have a place in the future with you and letting go of the guilt over unwanted and unused things honestly changed my life. 

(Honorary mention for The Secret History, which I read most of last year, but technically finished in January. I think what people liked back on 2013-ish tumblr were the ~dark academia vibes and the miniscule gay bits, but honestly it’s just deeply entertaining. Popcorning over horrible people only gets better when they’re also hilariously pretentious and don't have a shred of self-awareness.)

I also just realized I named an adult novel, a YA novel, a poetry collection and two very different kinds of non-fiction, which was certainly not on purpose, but hey :D

You have generally excellent opinions on books and video games, and also I admire the dedication and passion you have when it comes to hating astrology.
