#being sick is bullshit

[impetusofadream]

*headdesk*

I've had a sinus infection for over a week and still can't really fucking breathe in my sleep...

Guess which dumbass knocked over and broke her humidifier, which was the only thing keeping her mouth from becoming dryer than the Sahara Desert???

Yup. That's right. This dumbass *points to chest with thumbs*

...y'all I am so fucking miserable right now. My nose is still stuffed up and my dry mouth is making me want to hack up a lung and it's past 1am and I JUST WANT TO SLEEP!!!! But because I am a sad lump of fat and electricity trapped inside a bone mech with meat armor instead of a ball of light or a 5th dimensional being I have to deal with having a corporeal form. And like omg humans are some of the WORST designed animals in this planet. I do not want to be one right now. Having a respiratory system is stupid!!!! Let me be a tree. I would be so happy as a redwood tree. Or a Blue Spruce. Just let me tall and pretty and smell good damn it!!!

It feels like the bags under my eyes are getting bigger, which is bullshit cuz they're always pretty prominent.

Being autistic and not knowing what to do in certain situations is already bad enough.

But it’s even worse when you try explaining and the other people freak out like a bunch of NPCs and say shit like “Why not? Are you stupid? Do you not know The Rules? Haven’t you followed The Tutorial?????!!!!!!” (Not literally but it has the same effect!)

(Oblivion NPC behaviour! Many such cases)

And if you say anything to indicate that this is not the case they freak out! Or they just ignore your ass. At the best of times!

Acting like they’re filing a glitch report with God and that we’re somehow malfunctioning!

It’s sickening and exhausting to see!

Sickeningly predictable too!

Now, my parents at least understand. As do my other relatives and some people I’ve worked with. (Others not so much)

As did some of my friends, but still.

My kindle was bought and paid for years ago, but apparently you need to pay extra to get the screen to stop downloading and presenting you new ads. I fucking hate the very principle of this.

Previously they’ve been trashy romance books with women embracing dragons which I didn’t care that much about. It was a vague annoyance.

But now they’re fucking insane AI generated garbage.

This one popped up recently. At first I was like, “Where the fuck is his thumb.” But then other things started jumping out. Like the insane words. “The Sprit”. The gibberish plinth they’re standing on.

In a similar vein

I like to call this one, “Oops all bodies” as the main unicorns are just fused together. They must be fucking either Sleipnir or Shelob cause then you start to see all the extra legs on those monstrosities.

There’s also a strain of Rugged Manly Books

This atrocity popped up. They doubled down on that tricky hand and made it facing both ways just to be safe. Also gave the sword two hilts. Just to be safe. Couldn’t bother to fit the text on the cover or decide where the rest of the sword was.

This title can’t even be deciphered into English. That poor fire is being menaced by the weirdest dagger of all time and the hands once more trying to cover all their bases.

Non-traumagenics stop acting oppressed for being a system/disabled when you are not disabled because you're not a system challenge

"That was nice" "No it wasn't"

do you guys think that Shawn and Gus kissed once in like Middle School or something and that was when Shawn officially realized that he liked men too and it was also when Gus became the straightest man alive (bonus points if it was just a completely random thing with no feelings whatsoever they just. impulsively kissed)

"Wow, that was actually kinda nice feeling, I think I like men too" "You didn't brush your teeth this morning, Shawn, and now my lips taste like old pineapple. That's disgusting. I'll stick to women, thank you very much."

(now Gus has to deal with all of Shawn's obnoxious man-crushes.)

(Lass is one of those obnoxious man-crushes)

This is why you don’t trust me with researching things 👍

Sorry for putting those lilacs and poppi- *GUN SHOTS* -Some sort of ripoff unintelligible accent- “They been in the desert for long enough”

I don’t know why I added that last bit 💀

[mickeym4ndy]

can we please stop with the ‘Mickey is objectively a bad person’ shit PLEASE.

I get it comes from a place of holding him accountable for his actions which is fair but going straight to “he’s a bad person” just completely disregards so much of his growth and development, and the nuances of the show.

I get Mickey fans got a reputation in the past for excusing everything he does and yea that’s annoying. But to counteract that by saying “he’s objectively terrible!” is so one dimensional and also completely goes against everything that shameless is about.

the point of shameless isn’t that all of these people are terrible, it’s to show the effect living in poverty has on a person and the lengths that are necessary to go to survive in that life, and the mistakes that ultimately causes people to make along the way.

no shameless character is perfect. that’s the point. even some of the worst things that characters have done have been because they are victims of their circumstances and situations. they are nuanced complex characters that can’t be put into boxes of good and bad

they’ve all done things to hurt other people and themselves. but the point is is that most of them have good within them, but all the factors against them make it harder to let that out.

“He’s a bad person” is a lazy reading of the show that completely lacks nuance in my opinion

the "painting" with the orange tree by "juan" is AI.

Hi, do you have any actual evidence of that? I looked at the original post, and it looks like op just added "ai art" tags because someone told them it was ai art, again, without evidence. I looked up the artist, and while he is openly a digital artist and I get a lot of hits of people doing so-called "ai art" in his style (or links to pages in which his art is talked about and then halfway down the page there is an article about ai art), I don't see direct evidence that he is using so-called ai? (Although most of the direct some I can find by him is in Spanish, which I do not read, which makes it more difficult to research.)

I will remove the post (and be kinda pissed) if it is made by a plagiarism machine, but some random anonymous person declaring that to be so is not enough for me. One of the really messed-up results of the use of so-called ai is that people feel empowered to call tons of genuine artwork (often digital artworks) "ai art" based nothing except vibes or repeating a rumor.

And again, to be clear, I am more than willing to accept actual evidence that it is ai generated. But I need more than an anonymous person's say-so.

"proship dni" this, "comship dni" that, "neutral dni" unfortunately the people you don't like are still human and deserve comfort. my fucking god shut the hell up you're just as annoying as they are and protest WAY too much about it. go unlearn your purity morality shit

[abalidoth]

I hate that there's a fundamental incompatibility between social mores that suit

1) a binary trans woman who wishes to be gendered solely on her gender signifiers, and

2) me, a nonbinary transfem who will get he/himmed no matter fucking what because I have a beard and don't bother to voice train, even if my wardrobe and makeup is completely fem

I actually find it relatively affirming when cis people ask my pronouns, because otherwise they are one hundred percent guaranteed to get it wrong.

Guess it's just my fault for being nonconforming and I'll just go fuckin' be misgendered about it, though, because given the volume of posts I see about how evil and transmisogynist asking pronouns is, I'm clearly in the wrong on this one.

Your election post was the most holier-than-thou, performative, bullshit I’ve ever read. Get a grip and get some self awareness.

i will take "missed the entire point" for 500, alex

[betweenblackberrybranches]

I swear to god, every fucking 4 weeks i sit there at some point and think "huh why do i suddenly feel so depressed?" Just to then realize that its time for the monthly blood sacrefice and my body decides to make me not enjoy things anymore
