“I think Poolverine is one sided” straight people, who see it as Wade having a sexual thing for Logan (and basically any living thing) but Logan not liking him back.
VS
“I think Poolverine is (currently) one sided” polyamorous aroace spec me, who sees it it as Logan falling deep in to a romantic love with Wade by the end of the movie (but he realizes that Wade still only romantically likes Vanessa. Wade might be more than okay with having sex with Logan, or basically anyone for that matter, but Logan would never be able to agree with it. Such an intimate act would hurt him so much knowing they don’t see it the same way.)
#I do think Wade is polyamorous#but I think when it comes to straight up ‘‘regular romance’’ he is a little stricter#not that it’d take him long to fall into a romantic love with someone#but if he is already romantically attached to another person it will take him longer to fall and even longer to realize#at least romantically#sexually he will sleep with almost anyone#QPR wise he wants a QPR with like half of his friends#they make me crazy#poolverine#deadpool and wolverine#wolverine#deadpool#logan howlett#polyamorous

infantilization of Ricky Potts my beloathed
#the man basically lives in his own fictional universe where he SEXUALLY repopulates an entire planet of cat women. this is to say - he fucks#and he KNOWS he fucks (at least. in zolar. not irl. ykwim)#and he WANTS to fuck (it is his make-a-wish wish)#he knows a) what sex is and b) what SWEARING is#he is not a baby to be coddled. he is not a smol precious bean who must be protected and shielded at all costs#that is infantilization. and it's ableist!#and it's just so dumb and obvious you learned nothing of his character in the entire 90 minutes of the show#he is more than meets the eye. he is not a baby.#I swear ppl will call out ocean and then repeat her actions when it comes to Ricky#rtc#Ricky potts#bird likes to chirp

as much as i love reading cherik fics, i do have to turn off my brain every time because every fic seems to have a line or two about how mutant issues is the most pressing social injustice. and like as a black person, that line is so tone deaf to me because racism in the x-men world is both visible and invisible, which is actually so true to reality that it lowkey makes me sick.
#it is painfully clear when the writer is a white person#especially on older fics#like yes these two white mutant men are peak revolutionaries#and its crazy bc erik and charles despite being part of marginalized groups can hide their sexualities and mutations#and like don’t get me wrong ik erik faces antisemitism and i’m not trying to minimize that at all#but it’s undeniable that black folks in america endure a degree of hypervisbility and erasure unlike any other marginalized group#also i’m not saying let’s hc cherik as men of color#i actually think their whiteness and the privilege that comes with it despite their mutations#is like super fascinating from a narrative point of view#it’s just NEVER addressed in fics#at least not in any meaningful way that adds nunance to their characters as well as the larger fictional world#… i just have a LOT of feelings about race in xmen#cherik#xmen discourse#race in fandom#black in fandom

'sabrina carpenter is soooo male gaze-y' okay name one female public figure who doesn't have to cater to the male gaze, at least to some extent, in order to maintain their position in the public eye. if you don't like her make-up or costumes that's fine but don't act like it's some salient feminist critique to say wearing lingerie makes you an instrument of patriarchy when every single female popstar has to conform to a certain standard of femininity to reach acclaim. there is certainly room for a convo about why we only listen to music and watch films when the women creatives involved have flawlessly styled hair and a full face of make-up and impracticable clothes on 25/8, and how these standards implicate women in general. but critiquing this one single individual woman for being an arbiter of patriarchy smacks of weirdness. like just say you don't like her hair and go we don't need to act like sabrina carpenter herself invented patriarchy
#something something culture of individualism something something eschewing investigating macro trends in presentation and consumption#and like i understand if the hyperfeminine aesthetic gives someone the ick. but unless you're grounding your critique in trends#in wider culture and normative standards your point doesn't hold any weight i'm sorry#expressing a certain degree of discomfort is fine but blaming this one individual woman for centuries of patriarchy is tew much for me#and like we can talk about how she uses her sexuality in her art. and how that involves ownership and expression of her individual sexualit#in a way that women at least haven't been encouraged to in recent decades (#(see 'slim pickins' and 'bed chem' for a start)#no sabrina carpenter singing about dick in the nonsense outros isn't going to single-handedly stop patriarchy in its tracks. but compared t#the current tradwife trend plagueing society and culture i think it's fair to say she is doing something positive when it comes to#representing agency in female sexuality#again it's fine if you don't like her music or god forbid the fact that she wears lingerie on stage like every other popstar since the dawn#of time but let's not get this confused with actual feminist criticism. coming from an ardent feminist ❤#.txt

honestly all this talk of that god awful new norm cartoon is reminding me of that horrendous 90's sitcom i watched a few years ago, unhappily ever after, probably because both are right-wing trash.
at least unhappily ever after pretends to be an entertaining sitcom... not that it succeeds.
the new norm's just a never-ending series of jokes shitting on minorities without even trying to pretend it has a plot.
#and don't even get me started on how creepy uea is about the daughter character#like that shit legit deserves a tw for how fucked up it is#honestly i just stayed for the homoerotic tension between the bobcat goldthwait bunny and the sexually repressed dad#(or at least sexually repressed when it comes to his latent bisexuality)#the new norm#new norm#unhappily ever after#uea

I know I roast Augustin for this moment all the time but also the more I look at it the more I want to bang my head against the wall because like. my immediate reaction to this is "my man how touch starved do you have to be to enjoy yourself in this situation" but we KNOW he's not touch starved. we see him be very physically comfortable with his friends. which brings me to my other question which is HOW REPRESSED do you have to be to enjoy yourself in this situation
#sas rogue heroes#augustin jordan#paddy x augustin#ok so here's the thing#i don't think augustin sees himself as repressed#i think he IS comfortable with his sexuality and that he knows what he wants#however i also think he keeps a pretty tight grip on all of it#so like. of course physical desire is fine he's a grown man but only when he can rationalise it and control it.#i genuinely think that's why he lies about having a wife after i think he just gets kind of overwhelmed with huh. you know. in this scene#and just blurts out the first thing that comes to mind#also because the moment immediately after that gif you can see him setting his jaw like he's annoyed#and I SWEAR at least some of that annoyance is at himself#anyway i think paddy should keep making him insane. never forget what they took from us#whoops ramble in the tag alert#i am sorry i have thoughts and crunchy is away and i am giving myself a short writing break so i need to get them out SOMEWHERE#oscar rambles

I just think some of you don't actually care about trans rights and liberation for everyone. I'm starting to think some of you believe YOU personally should be left alone and respected.. But you also get to be the bully who's mean to other trans people and justified, encouraged even to do so, because oppression.
#like just stop calling it theory and admit that you wanna be mean at LEAST. own it.#like im sorry what other conclusions should i come to when I see people be needlessly mean again & again & again#the fact that I saw a post the other day where someone was like 'trans mascs in general just don't make good music it's impossible'#like what even are you talking about. do you hear yourself. does that sound correct to you.#would that sound correct if you put in any other gender identity or sexuality or minority possible in trans mascs place?

#vent post#vent blogging#Seven’s Public Diary#motivating myself to study for my driver’s permit by thinking of the Freedom and independence a license would grant me? ❌ 1/10 ineffective#motivating myself to study for my driver’s permit by imagining all the new & different possible ways i could become injured in a car crash?#✅ 7/10 it just might fucking work!!!#the only true cure for OCD is to face one’s fears. but i just might be able to find a loophole via my ever-worsening mental health#because you don’t have to Face your fears if you don’t Have any fears#and in order to rid myself of my fears regarding harm coming to myself. i simply have to stop fearing being harmed#and what better way to stop fearing it than to actively crave it!#or at the very least become so overwhelmed that i lose the capacity to feel any particular way about it#i’ve found a new OCD cure everybody - Just Stop Caring™️ /sarc#well. sarcastic or joking for everyone else. but im serious when it applies to me#bc so much of my anxiety comes from feeling unsafe. so i just have to reach the point where i stop caring if im safe or not. easy peasy#like yes i know this is flawed and unhealthy logic but i’ve resisted more compulsions via this method lately than i have via anything else#and even outside of OCD stuff even just for all my other anxiety disorders it’s also worked. im actually making a modicum of progress now#need to make a scary phone call? just get into a 3-hour family argument and then you’ll be so upset that you don’t feel fear! :)#genuinely worked very well. scared of a home invasion? well at least it’d mean you’d have some different company for once!#you might make a new friend! or if they **** you at least you’d have some Real trauma for once. it’s a win-win honestly …/hj#so. scared to drive? well even if you Do crash at least it might lead to a hospital visit and then you’ll finally get that attention you-#-want so fucking badly! you’ll finally get a break from everything while you recover. or even if you don’t survive- well. i shan’t say.#anyways. the ‘you’ in those tags is me talking to myself for the record. i wouldn’t speak to anyone else like this. i just speak in the-#-wrong tense/person sometimes. don’t know what’s up with that. just another reason i need to stop speaking altogether. as i’ve learned#i’ve been trying So fucking hard to be nice lately. letting them walk all over me. and it’s still not enough. cause i’m always-#-‘using the wrong tone’ and ‘if all im gonna do is say smthn negative i just shouldn’t speak at all’ ..okay! gladly!!!#sorry for being autistic and unsocialized and under immense stress and being unable to keep my ‘tone’ under control. my bad.#i just need to get blackout drunk with Venti at Angel’s Share. that would fix me.#that or heading down to the bottom of the Fortress of Meropide and curl up like a dog under Wriothesley’s desk. head empty no thoughts#not sexually. just. in a pet-regression sense. i can’t stop thinking abt it. i wanna write a oneshot for it but i can’t focus these days#anyways. the delusional maladaptive daydream dissociation will continue until morale improves. and brother it’s only getting worse.

hard to explain how therapy makes me feel these days
#it's like#things in my life are generally pretty good#and that is due in HUGE part to therapy and my therapist who i've been seeing since 2018#but BECAUSE things in my life are generally pretty good i'm having an increasingly hard time coming up with like#things i want to talk about#i try to share my successes when i can and like times i've used what i've learned from her to get through certain situations#& i discovered a while back that there's only so much she can say abt the more consistent issues i'm having (the loneliness etc)#like there's not much more she can recommend about that than what she has already which is just. getting out more lmao.#and i am trying to do that#i think the issue is maybe that she specializes in queer sexuality & has extensive history (both personal and professional)#in dealing with loved ones with alcoholism#both of which obviously made her invaluable to me as an asexual person when i was still in a relationship with an alcoholic#but now it's like. i finally think i understand my sexuality as much as i can at least at this point in my life#i am (thank god) no longer in a relationship with an alcoholic#& idk it kind of feels like until such time that i get into another committed relationship (which like. may never even happen lol)#we just simply don't have much to talk about#which is a shame bc i love my therapist#but i'm also kind of like. is this worth $220 a month. u kno.#idk

so ive been a fan of danganronpa for a while now, i think i got into it late 2018, and basically since i got up to chapter 2 of thh togami became my favourite character and he's been my fave ever since, and much of my time was spent largely thinking about it on my own. and due to that i was stuck in my own head with very little fandom content to supply my mind. so because of this there was a time where i had went through all of togami's main ships and when i realised i had exhausted all the content for that ship i would move on. during all my time i ended up at one point or another shipping togami with all the survivors, a couple characters from the main game, and even an oc, but not once have i ever shipped him with toko. and i think thats hilarious. like even i, who was starving for content, didn;t touch it with a 10 foot pole
#may.txt#do NOT come after me okay most of this was when i was like 14 and 15#i actually do remember shipping togiri very early on#after i had gotten bored with naegami and how it was basically togamis only big ship#so i at least had good taste with that#togakure is still a little bit funny#and togahina is funny specifically for me as i see them hooking up once because asahinas questioning her sexuality#and togami is the most girlish looking man she has access to#and togami is lonely because naegiri are dating and hes jealous#but they both immediately feel weird after#comedy gold#and also canon compliant#maybe one day i will release my very embarrasing and cringy art of togami x oc#but maybe it should never be seen by human eyes again

being transmasc + pre t + visibly neurodivergent is such a great fuckin combo because everyone that so much as looks at you thinks that you're far younger than you actually are and treats you as such and even when you're talking to people who *know* how old you are you can tell. you can fucking tell they're doing the same thing even if they don't realise they're doing it
#like worst psrt is i camt even blame them#i dont know how to act like an 'adult'#my interests skew on the younger side and im fucking awful at talking to people#i have no experience with more adult topics because im not living a life where i *can* exoerience those things#and i dress like a 12 year old boy#but christ man. itd be fucking nice tk#itd be nice to not constantly feel like im being looked down on#to be able to talk about more mature topics without the feeling of being condescended to or told that 'ill get it one day'#*especially* when it comes to topics relating to my identity and sexuality. ive been out for 6 fucking years. ive spent every goddamn day#questioning and exploring and reinforcing and understanding it. i already fucking get it.#itd be fucking nice to hold a conversation with one fucking person and feel like we're peers#god. i dont know#if anyone i know irl os seeing this. first off im sorry but also yall are good dw#odds are im probably just making this up anyway#i mean like half of it is liteally jist my fault. i could learn how to talk to people and get more mature interests and learn how to act#like a real person#but thats probably not gonna happen !! ever !! so I should just stop caring about it#im always going to be the youngest and the least mature and the one everyone looks down on because i dont know anything (and im so fucking#ass at conversations I cant communicste the things i do know properly). who the fuck cares#we vibe#me.txt

"You can't ship Dirk with a woman. That's problematic. You're forcing him to be straight when in the narrative he's gay." *Ships Dirk with Egbert.* To be honest with you, I don't really care about any of this all that much. The idea that Dirk would shit his pants over someone drawing him going on a spaghetti dinner date Nepeta or something is ludicrous, as far as I'm concerned. I think he might play into the whole thing and pretend to be pissed because it was funny, but that's really about it, in my opinion. I just think it's kind of strange to see people up in arms about the sanctity of Dirk's sexuality while disregarding the fact that Hussie declared JEgbert to be trans at one point.
#Dirk Strider#Sexuality#For the record#I like Tide Pod.#I just think that the policing that this fandom takes part in when it comes to shipping is somewhat hypocritical at times.#I will be honest#this “hot take” of mine is most likely at least somewhat influenced by how much I myself identify with Dirk.#Playing in the space of getting all touchy-feely with emotionally vulnerable bullshit -#When the dude said that he didn't want to label himself I fucking felt that#like *insert some overly verbose and uncomfortably intimate description of the tactile sensations involved in rubbing up on some plush#bouncy puppet ass or something like that*.#Whatever. Yack fucking yack. You get the picture.#As someone who now identifies as homoflexable#It was seriously hard to figure myself out for a long time.#I suppose that there was always this kinship I felt with him because I always imagined that he might feel the same#and I think if anything would annoy him about bullshit fanfics or shipping or whatever the fuck else#it might just be that people have decided to pin him down and declare his sexuality when it might just be a little more fucking complicated#than that.#Anyway#In other news#I finally got prescribed testosterone today. Pretty god damn excited about that.

i feel like for the rest of my life i will be walking around totally normal and then periodically, i will be absolutely brained with a metaphorical anvil falling off the side of a building that represents the absolute bafflement i have towards modern adaptations of sherlock holmes and their treatment of irene adler. bbc's most recent adaptation in particular.
im so sorry. please repeat. she was stupid u say??? and i'm sorry, IN LOVE with him u say??????
i'm a feminist so i think women are capable of being in love and also of being stupid. they can do anything they put their minds to ofc ❤️. but this is too far even for me.
it's just that i can't understand why you would choose to write a narrative that is more mysoginistic than the source material when the source material was written in 1891.
was it intentional? did they somehow not pick up on the implications? was it random?
i can't fathom it. it keeps me awake.
#sherlock holmes#irene adler#bbc sherlock#guy ritchie sherlock holmes#that one noir holmes set in the 40s?#idk i might have made that up#you know what actually i'm thinking about the guy richie one now too#GOD!!!!!!!#men should me shot in the streets for what they did to my girl#it's just the complete inability to imagine her as being powerful in any way that does not relate to being underestimated as a woman#which is not to say that this is not an interesting thread to explore in a more thorough character study#but!#the notion that who she is as a character is the unique utilization of feminity and sexuality to obstruct the power of men#thereby making her own power a power only in reaction#does such a disservice to the core of her initial character and the point that she made#and also this relates to the obsession with adler as a villain#because adler isn't necessarily smarter than holmes - she totally may be - but that doesn't actually matter#what matters is that she outsmarts him#and she wins at the game he plays#she tails him - she disguises herself and isn't recognized - she preempts his actions through logical analysis (she takes his role)#and equally important - she holds the moral high ground she protects the vulnerable#so many of the cases holmes takes on deal with the exploitation of women by society - motherhood marriage reputation gendered labor#this is a case where holmes has become the perpetrator of a crime he would usually work to prevent or avenge#adler takes up his role where he has failed terribly to do so - as a result her power within this narrative is identical to his#it doesn't come from her gender or even necessarily from her intelligence (though these are important traits)#narratively speaking at least - she wins because she deserves to and her morality gives her power#it is that power which is always what i think is important about sherlock holmes when he lives up to it#to me he never truely wins by being smart - he only ever wins by being kind and wanting people to be safe and treated fairly#ALSO WHERE IS HER HUSBAND WHO SHE LOVES AND WHO RESPECTS HER YOU FIENDS!!!!!! she could never love holmes! she is loved by a better man#sorry!!!
