#because i'm an extra bitch

[sisterjaniswilde]

I am dead fucking serious when I say I wish I saw more fat women in public. I want to see fat models. I want to see fat women in department stores getting absolutely HYPE when they find racks and racks of clothing in their size and sizes up, so they too can get the "oversized, baggy fit" like women who fit into smalls and mediums. I want to see fat women wearing crop tops proudly and rocking mad midriff. I want to see fat women trying on clothing for their friends and family and saying "look! it compliments my body shape! it's like it was made for me!" I want to see fat women with "cankles" wearing pretty jingling anklets skipping and jumping just to show them off. I want to see fat women on TV, in magazines, on billboards, in all manner of ads, and in online shop images because I want to see my fucking self and all the women I know who don't see enough of themselves. I want to see fat women living, loving, and being visibly proud of who they are because they are beautiful, WE are beautiful. I want to see fat women because fat women need to see other fat women.

It is so hard for me to just let go of tasks I've delegated and I am being so so brave right now.

So i was re-re-re-reading BTF and I just got a brainwave that I can't put as a comment. feel free to not answer this ask - is Green convinced that he and Red are just fwb? while Red thinks they're dating already?? it seems both obvious and a bit of a reach to me but if that's right it makes me mad that they can't fucking communicate (but not mad at you, mad at them, lol)

JDIOSADWLKM fourth reread???? and omg, I keep forgetting I turned comments off

But yeah! you're right; green thinks they're FWB and I wouldn't say that Red thinks they're dating... maybe leading up to that. Red just already knows (and recognizes) that he has feelings for Green, because Green stuck up for him at that confrontation with Clay and then came to comfort him, which was very important to Red.

I dunno, sometimes I think about BTF and how they haven't truly known each other that long? LIKE it was meant to stay as a mutual FWB thing, but since they've been working together for a few months now, they've started to care for each other.

So i'm not really surprised they aren't communicating. They don't know each other well enough. And they started with like an understanding of "oh, yeah. we can bone and work on the farm at the same time, no problem." the catching feelings part wasn't supposed to happen.

but BTF is a bit of a 🤢slow burn, so....as things progress, maybe they'll start being better at that whole "talking about it" thing.

or not. who knows 😉

This one member of staff annoys me so baddddddd she's so rudeeeee and condescending and awkward whenever you ask her to do anything I need her to never contact me again

Was considering buying (ridiculously overpriced) Sunny blu-rays to (very, very legally) rip them (for Personal Use archival purposes), decided to test on a blu-ray I already own, realized my external drive only reads DVDs, successfully ripped a DVD, but then was sent down a rabbit hole trying to see if I could use my (again, very, very legally) hacked PS3 to rip the .iso (I can) since it is indeed a blu-ray player with an attached PC-adjacent machine...

Long story short. If you see me spending $70 on seasons 1-5 on DVD and 6 on blu-ray, no you didn't, but also expect a 1080p season 6 bloopers upload in the near future.

definitely not from me, though. no way. i would never do that. i'm not a pirate. i'm just a good ole upstanding wiki admin.

Oh, man, we really in it now.

Hi yes hello this reading is about

✨anxiety✨

Also about me finding the jankiest work around I possibly could because fuck that noise.

So, this is strangely symmetrical: 2 pents, 2 wands, and a sword in between. Arguably one of the "worst" swords. In the future position because of course it fucking is.

Caveat: there's no truly "bad" cards, they all have positives to them but it's definitely a super serious warning okay? Okay.

From an elemental perspective this is... Interesting. Wands and pents are neutral to each other, swords and wands support each other, swords and pents weaken each other, and then the two sets of dupes strengthen each other. So in terms of the... emphasis, I suppose you could say, it is almost perfectly balanced, but it has a slight skew to the wands end of the equation here. What I'm taking this to mean is that the energy of this week is going to be more active. Which could mean a lot of things tbh: by itself, it's neither a positive nor a negative.

So let's unpack.

Starting with seven of pentacles: this card represents hard work and long term planning. An investment, if you will. But it also warns against burn out.

The nine of pentacles, similarly, is talking about the fruits of your labors. It represents the results of discipline and motivation and the creation of a solid foundation from which to work. But this could have a negative side: too much focus on work, and not enough on enjoying what you've built.

Taken together, it's overall generally positive: if you work hard, you'll see great results. But there's an axe hanging over your head in the shape of burnout, taking too much on and pushing forward when you should have rested.

This is especially true considering the blunting presence of the ten of swords affecting your results.

Ten of swords is one of the most ominous cards you can draw: it is pain. Painful endings, painful betrayals, painful loss... It's about crisis. It's... Well, it's pretty damn bleak to be honest. It's mostly repeating a theme I keep seeing in my readings, be they rune or tarot: you've reached the end, and the beginning. Because this card doesn't represent a finality, but rather it's indicating that the current collapse will make way for something new. Given the presence of the pentacles, this will likely occur in the realm of work/finances. Given the presence of the wands, it will likely be sudden and violent (which is silly tbh because we're both expecting it and not lol.) Either way, it marks an upcoming period of pain. Brace yourself accordingly.

Now to the wands: I normally just do a three card PPF, but I felt moved to increase to five today for some direction.

Five of wands is a reminder that the fight is never over. Keep an extra close eye out for betrayals and backstabbing. Once again, this card is mostly focused around the work sphere and its proximity to both another wand and your ten of swords means the fighting might get ugly.

On the flip side, you've also got a lot of resources at your disposal, so all of this energy can be transferred constructively into this transition you already knew was coming. Mostly, this calls for meeting the conflict head on, with sword or olive branch in hand, depending. Strategy and communication will be your best friends here.

Finally there is our sweet four of wands: this represents the places and people most familiar to you, and feeling supported and secure. It is a stable card, signifying a strong foundation. In this position, the card presents a reminder that whatever the ten of swords brings, it's nothing that cannot be withstood. You've put the work in. You'll be okay.

Also, a vacation is in order. (Good thing I've got one scheduled lol.)

As added flavor/context, today's rune is Ansuz.

Communication and wisdom, which truly are the keys to the foundation on which everything else is built.

It's going to be okay. It's going to suck for a bit but it's going to be okay.

EDIT: So I had put this together hours ago before I got caught up on international news. And uh. Not where I thought this was going but this... applies? Goddamn.
