whoever needs to hear this: if you got a disability, if you donāt know if you have something, if you ever think āitās not that badā if you have a thing about guilt, if youāre ill, Anything: listen. it is okay to throw things away.
you can throw it away. if it sucks and it stresses you the fuck out, if you just āneed the right time to fix itā for the past 3 months. or years. if you loved it once upon a time but it makes you feel kinda weird and guilty now. if itās a jacket youve reaaaally been meaning to mend and then donate. a jar of sauce that āall you have to doā is clean out to recycle but itās been a week and now thereās a small colony growing in it. slowly shredding to bits fabric scraps you plan to use to fix something. busted picture frame. cracked mug. old shoes. extra box. an entire pack of granola bars that you hate so much but donāt want to waste.
life is already so goddamn difficult for us. i know you still care about recycling and the environment and sustainability. but itās okay, i promise. sometimes you have to take care of your space. sometimes you have to cut your losses so you can actually have energy to recycle the next thing. get rid of the old shirt before it turns into a tornado pile of guilt under the bed. youāre not a bad person. you can throw this one away.
#idk if marie kondo talked about trash in this way but i do remember something about her philosophy helping me with the guilt aspect of this#like the ability to thank something for the service it provided you but recognize that youāve grown beyond it. yes even for dumb tshirts#feeling very chatty today lol.#text#disability#uhhh idk what else to tag#cleaning#environmentalism is one of my great passions#but everyone has to recognize they cannot be activists 100% of the time and do the right thing 100% of the time#using my iphone to post this is one of those things. buying something from amazon bc i canāt make myself go to the store is one.#sometimes one must preserve themself simply in the name of preservation. take care of your space bc thatās where you do You.#and sometimes objects accumulate in said space and just get this awful sickly aura. metaphorically#where you canāt deal with it so you shove it somewhere else. but itās okay to get rid of shit that sucks

how often do you run out of black coloured pencils? i am always afraid to use mine because getting black coloured pencils sold separately is hell on earth
its probably my second most frequently bought color next to white lol. yeah it is basically never in stock at my local blick, i usually just order them online. thankfully theyre pretty easy to find online (i assume bc theyre bought more often) even on amazon where i usually cant find individual pencils of the color i want. tho sometimes u can only find them in packs of 12 on there
#i buy my pencils from the blick website i would generally not reccomend getting them from amazon#theres way less on amazon and they usually cost more#blick has flat rate shipping so i usually only order from them when im buying a bunch of things at once#so that im not paying a bunch in shipping for just like 5 pencils lol

seeing non-black people critique rick's portrayal of black characters is interesting sometimes. only like 30% of the critiques I see make any sense to me to be honest
#ārick made carter be an elvis presley fan that's fucked up!ā is a real thing I just read#do you think black people can't enjoy elvis even though he appropriated black culture for personal gain#boy you would not like what I have to tell you about eminem. or kpop. or anything else bc black culture has been#appropriated by like everyone forever. are black people not allowed to enjoy iggy or ariana or billie or [the list goes on]#I myself am not biracial but I /mostly/ like carter and sadie (specifically carter who isn't white-passing) as black representation#the part where carter feels indignant that he has to hold himself to a higher standard because the world is harsher on black boys#did genuinely resonate with me when I first read that part as a child and it still does to this day#can we talk about how rick knows nothing about black hair instead#or how hazel is from the jim crow era and seems to not have one single thought about race in the modern era#or hazel's horror over the amazons keeping slaves but āno they're not slaves they just like it that way š„°ā#my problems with hazel are not at all about stereotypes I just don't buy her as an authentic portrayal of a black girl from the 1930s#don't get me started on beckendorf. does every black character need to die a violent horrible death rick#anyways this isn't intended to make anyone feel bad but we need more meaningful nuance in critiques beyond āhey that's a stereotype! bad!ā#if you can't discern and communicate WHY it's bad then you're not saying anything of substance#is it a caricature? is it uninformed/underresearched? are all the characters from that group being represented in that way?#is the stereotype itself a degradation of that group? is it being played for laughs? is the character a one-dimensional stereotype?#what can we glean about the biases of the author/narrative and their worldview through their portrayal of certain groups in the text?#a big part of literary analysis and critique is not only pointing out The Thing. you need to also say something about The Thing#like if you have a black character say they like hiphop then sure it's a āstereotypeā. but lots of black people do like hiphop#it's an important part of black american culture and portraying that in media isn't racist by default#and in fact lots of poc keep parts of themselves quiet for fear of being perceived as a āstereotypeā when we shouldn't have to do that#BUT if you're doing it like jonah wizard was written in the 39 clues then that's where we've got a problem bc wtf was that rick#that was so racist oh my god I was like 11 years old reading that š and then he had the white mc poke fun at him for being a gangster#and him being a āgangstaā was always played for laughs throughout the story#not being pro-rick here as I'm a big fan of critical riordan reading just being pro-thoughtful critiques because some of you guys actually#sound a wee bit ignorant when saying things like what was mentioned in the first tag#baye.txt#pjo hoo toa#rr crit#<- tagging that just for. well the tags basically

Okay ive a lil question on books and the general consensus re: the ethics of *sourcing* a digital copy of a book you already own
(Assume in all cases that you want to read the book on a device where you cannot use your local libraryās digital loan scheme, or it does not have one)
*ie you paid for it on apple books but want to read it on an e-reader device
I think physical books should start including codes for an e-copy of the book as standard like many vinyl records now do, and that if you purchase and ebook once from any service, you should be able to read it on any device in a standard format (usually epub) but I know it can be a touchy subject
Would love to hear othersā thoughts, especially from authors
#my main issue with buying ebooks is that you get locked into a company forever when you do#ive books bought across amazon google and apple from various times in my life#and there is no device where i can easily access them all within the same library without doing some serious work to strip the drm#BUT i also know the landscape is Bleak for authors right now. so.#poll

hell is real because I desperately want to listen to some Ursula K Le Guin audiobooks but Amazon has a massive monopoly on the market and I cannot go against my lady like that
(And yes, I do have library accessā¦ none of them have the audio versions)
#ursula k. le guin#a wizard of earthsea#earthsea#the left hand of darkness#struggling so hard because my local bookstore buys their books from amazon too!#itās absurd

"tee hee amazon loses money for every book you read on kindle unlimited! āŗ" girl. girl this is their business model. girl this is intentional. girl this is how they became a monopoly. girl they can afford to lose this money because they make enough through stolen wages and environmental pollution. girl this is the whole point. girl if you keep supporting them there will be no other bookshops to buy from at all. girl you are helping amazon destroy the publishing world. girl this isn't a bug you are exploiting this is a feature ment to lure you in. girl you are not the predator you are the prey. girl.
#i know consumerism under capitalism is a fucking hell#but please#use your fucking brain#just a little bit#i am not saying don't buy from amazon#i am saying that if you have other options#use them#especially if the difference between the two options is just a tiny little bit of effort#amazon#capitalism#booktok#bookstagram#booktube#book tumblr#bookstore
