it really annoys me to talk with people who never bother to look stuff up themselves

like there's this expectation that I have to do all the work to fill in blanks, especially if it would literally only take a couple minute google to find out

“they’re not intersex, they’re just a cis person with mixed sex characteristics!!” OH MY GOD DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT INTERSEX MEANS

Smacks the therian/alterhuman/otherkin/ext community on here with a newspaper. Credit your GODDAMN artists or DONT POST AT ALL. Your "this is me!" Claims of people's art is not cute when uncredited. Use critical thinking I fucking beg of you. If you don't know the artist, then keep it to your fucking self!

so apparently my roommate straightup Did Not Know that leaving your food out on the countertop for several hours can give you food poisoning. i thought when she brushed me off every time i told her to put her food away she was simply throwing caution to the wind. "ohhh, is that why i get sick so often?" FUCKING PROBABLY!!!

just watched a biker do the dumbest thing that was clearly his impulsive thoughts winning, and, without missing a beat, said “twenty four hours eddie.”

bro forgot it was a game about learning to forgive yourself even after seeing the full weight of the consequences of your actions, and realizing that you can still be loved and relearn how to love despite everything. Forgot it was a game about overcoming grief and realizing the world still moves on, with or without you, whether or not you think it's fair or if you blame yourself. You still have responsibility over your actions, and everything you do still matters, but forgiveness never promised an easy path. The complete opposite really. It's something you have to fight for, especially against yourself. You still can change people's lives for the better or worse even if you think you aren't worth a second thought. Bro forgot its a game about fighting for a better future even if things could never be the way they were before, I can tell.

yesterday i read a review by someone saying in recent years it’s become “trendy” for fantasy books to discuss colonialism and they thought a master of djinn handled the topic badly, then named three white authors from the global north who they thought wrote about it better than p. djèlí clark 🙃 i’m still pissed off

Stop thinking what you have is not enough. If God could use 5 loaves and 2 fish, He can take your little and make it much! (Read: Matthew 17:20)

interesting, why don’t you like alina?

Her character is written quite well, unfortunately her character's purpose is to be so so incredibly aggravating. By which I mean she serves as an antagonistic force from the council's side Sophie & Co. need to work through to help push the message of how muddled morality can be.

Resplendent with many lovely moments like these:

She displays such a clear lack of awareness or consideration. The overwhelming entitlement--not just as a councillor, but as an elf. She's condescending to other cultures and has beef with children (though she doesn't seem to think of them as children, as if their having their own thoughts and feelings negates any rights they'd have earned being docile and innocent, as a child "should" be), thinks herself always correct, believes in punishment over problem resolution, etc.

It's an excellent depiction of how some people really are, and it shows how it's not only villains who can be antagonistic, wrong, and hurtful. And shows how giving people like that positions of power increases the harm they can perpetuate.

but MAN is it hard to read sometimes because these kinds of people aren't open to conversation, and without an open dialogue you can't do shit to change their mind. you just have to deal with them when you're around them and, if you can, try and chip away at that exterior bit by bit

so we just listen to Alina spout shit believing herself entirely right for it, actively condescending and insulting everyone (including her coworkers), and there's nothing to be done about it. she'd just snap back harder in defense because she's not open to change and on a huge power trip. which sucks when, like Alina, they have power and influence! she is hurting people with these opinions and power! she has a responsibility she's not living up to! it's infuriating!

as a character, great, lovely, i get it. still want to glue her throat closed every time she speaks

this last month I've been anticipating what Chris would do for his next solo stage, how he would one-up the last one, coz he's been steadily escalating every show... first the scratches, then he added chains, then the fucking handprints that I will NEVER get over............. so I've been trying to figure out what he'd do next, and I'll be honest, I couldn't see how he'd get much more explicit than HANDPRINTS.

but no. he did.

and this has opened up a whole world of new possibilities

Christopher. Sir. Please.
