While I intend this blog to remain a largely news-free space due to the constant hellstate of the world, let me be clear that I stand in full support of both the Palestinian and Jewish peoples who are currently experiencing relentless hate and suffering in these horrid times.
I am disgusted at the number of people, especially "progressives" on this website who have used this situation to spread both Islamophobia and Antisemitism. This goes double if you dared to reblog those "punch nazis/fascists <3" and "[x] are welcome here!" posts while in the next breath spreading dangerous fucking narratives that kill people.
So many people in online political spaces evidently see this as nothing more than a case of picking "sides", when ultimately what matters is supporting the oppressed against fascist governments and militias, wherever they are.
Common people will always have more alike with each other than their leaders. This is not a novel concept. Your activism should always be motivated by love and compassion first, and hatred second. If you use your beliefs as an excuse to find an acceptable target to vent your hatred towards regardless of the actual material outcome, you are no fucking activist.
You're a bigot.
#current events#antisemitism#islamophobia#scrawny rambles#scrawny speaks#again i have not been saying much both for the fact that this blog is meant to be a quiet place#and that i do not consider myself to be a reliable source of serious information and/or morals#but regardless i have been watching i have been taking note#i see you i hear you#and while i am currently in no position to materially help right now#the moment i can i will#i don't like signalling this kind of thing because i want it to be evident in how i *act*#but as this cannot be taken as a given i will say this:#you are welcome here. i am so sorry the world is hateful and vile and i wish i could wipe it all away.#you and your folk did nothing to deserve this and you are right to be scared. and i wish to give you my love.#fascism and genocide are not things to be taken lightly. bigoted 'jokes' are vile and dangerous. human life is what's at stake.#we are heading into a wave of hate that has the potential to repeat history in the worst way imaginable. get a fucking grip.#i'm unlikely to address this further as again. reasons stated above. but i wanted to make my stance clear.#it is late as fuck and i'm pissed. people who should know better miss the fucking memo completely.#i'm fucking glad i unfollowed a popular blogger when i did because look what they're posting now. antisemetic 'jokes'.#i really wonder how common this shit truly is. how many people get away with cloaking themselves as 'progressive.'#or perhaps they genuinely think they are. cognitive dissonance is one hell of a drug. fuck them regardless. scum.#you are no progressive. you are a bigot. a leftist bigot is a bigot regardless of how 'revolutionary' you posture to be.#anyhow apologies for any errors. again. it's late. hope you guys are doing well <3

#p4#persona 4#p4g#persona 4 golden#hanamura yosuke#yosuke hanamura#there's something really interesting here#when those annoying girls were badmouthing yosuke or saki#yosuke kept quiet for the most part because he still has to play the part of the good boy#it's something that he's said before - because of his family's reputation and his dad's position yosuke has to keep his head down#not make any waves dont fight back even when he's being bullied or harrassed (tacks in his shoes and nasty notes and all that)#it kind of reminded me of konishi naoki's position as well - regardless of how naoki felt or his frustrations with his neighbours#naoki couldn't say anything because it would jeopardize his/his family's reputation#in this instance though#yu is the trigger that causes yosuke to actually speak up and retalisate - it's only when they start criticising yu that yosuke shouts back#on the one hand there's a very souyo-esque reading here - that yu is the one that yosuke places above not just saki but also himself#that when yu is attacked yosuke jumps to his defence#but at the same time even without that it also speaks to how yu functions as a catalyst for yosuke being more honest with himself#yosuke holding back and playing his role is a reflection of him being unfaithful to what he wants to say or feel#furthermore yosuke has always been a very emotional character - he's sensitive and he's terrified of his own sensitivity#mitsuru talks about how yosuke regards his own emotional sensitivity as a weakness but it's not#but it's very much apparent here - yosuke puts up a strong front and outwardly denies everything#i think it's a combination of playing up that ideal masculine image of stoicism and denying himself which can't be easily untangled#and so when his emotions do spill out - like they did here - it spills out like a torrent that doesn't know how to stop#he's good with his queue

The philoctetes is a comedy actually
#The philoctetes#Odysseus#Neoptolemus#philoctetes#Philoctetes weeping with joy thank the gods my son neo sweet sweet boy thank you for taking me with you#The second odysseus has his bow and revels that it was one of his plots the entire time#Philoctetes spending the next 20 minutes of the audio book cursing odysseus out#Odysseus sticking out his tongue and waving the bow above his head going nah nah nah we don't actually need you now that I have your bow#Like I do feel bad for philoctetes#The abandonment the isolation the chronic pain the fact that same guy who caused all of that then stole your price possession#But also#This is hilarious#Neo caught in the middle like uhhh I liked talking to the old man and I feel bad about how we handled this#And odysseus being like yah that's called a conscious and you need to set it on fire the only thing that matters is results#Headcanon that odysseus just collects bows from every famous figure. Yes he does steal most of them#Odysseus being a rat bastard my beloved

#thinking about Taylor’s particular brand of greatness#and how it is the mark of so many of my very favorite most enduring artists#which is: speaking the language of the common people but just a little bit above their heads#so she scoops them up in her hand and lifts them up#without them even knowing that it’s happening#this is why (imo!!!!!!) she is still one of the most underrated artists we have today#because all the success and all the numbers and all the crowds—that’s not proper critical estimation/conversation#that is just the common people responding because dat’s what they DO#it’s like Mindy Kaling commenting on the magic of the eras tour being the way every single person in attendance#(or so it seemed) knew every word to every song#like they’re just vibing because they KNOW#and as NATHANIEL HAWTHORNE SAID IN THE SCARLET LETTER#when a crowd judges not with its mind but with ITS GREAT BEATING HEART#it generally judges without error#and with artists like that estimation comes with TIME#and that’s what I think is going on with Taylor#I think anyway. I could be wrong. and many people I know would laugh at me#but it FEELS so true to me! in my bones!!!!!!!!!!!#these tags brought to you by me listening to August 3 times in a row and being blown away by what a great song it is#but not in a way where you can analyze it. it just carries you on a wave#and that’s part of the greatness#I say common people without condescension btw. I am one of them!

A shame I wasn't able to find the motivation to finish my Halloween art in time for Halloween. Might still finish it and post it late for fun, especially since it's already lined.
Started it early and everything and I still couldn't make it. Oh well. That's what I get for getting distracted doodling silly stuff.
#text post#just rambling#Ive just been trying to keep my head on straight and doodling to distract myself these past couple weeks#that WIP has been sitting there...SO close to finished#I just had to color it... :( But coloring is a process I really gotta be in the headspace for#shoulda just slapped on some comfort show and powered through it so I wouldnt be late#but getting mad about what I didnt do isnt gonna make it magically happen lol#so late halloween art is my curse#sorry if I sound a little down for a bit its not the halloween lateness thats got me like this its more so just...#my brain. and my situation. I just gotta wait for the waters of my mind to calm back down#right now they waves are high. and Im just trying to keep my head above water the best I can#okay wow let me. just stop now yall dont wanna hear all that~! <3

(remixed like '"its hip to fuck bees") its tough to be gay
#seeing a woman with cool short hair across the store and waving my arms above my head like hey hey hey look at me hey hey hey hey listen#idk what the compulsion is its a horrible way to flirt the end goal is to have her glance at me for a second and then weirdly smile and#skitter off#like the hey lois hey hey hey lois hey lois lois bit.#i know. i know i am part of the problem of women lacking initiative in dating. but i lack initiative EVERYWHERE

//: Funfacts pain edition!!:
//: The scar around Pyroites neck from the beheading sometimes flares up with pain. Usually their painful headaches that leave him having to stay still to gather his barings. It ranges from every enchanted sense that he has is cranked up to the max to be overwhelming to simply blacking out for a while to escape until it stops. Even if he takes off his mask at this point, you'll just be encountering faceless pyroite due to the pain.
//: There is another scar though that is across his body from another poor encounter. The time when that aches and is overwhelming will lead to him melting the whole time, no matter what. His body can't handle staying put together so it just ends up melting. Which does not help Pyroite as melting, with this context, is even more pain.
//: If its both of them at the same time? More chances on encountering Faceless Horror Pyroite as at that point the pain is overwhelming enough that being in that state is the only moment he'll get of being ok
#beheading: mention#body horror: mention#[ hope this makes sense ;v;b ]#[ example wise: its swimming#getting caught in a wave trying to keep your head above water before being pulled under ]

honestly I’ve never felt very strongly about vampires OR werewolves but I have more friends who are vampire fans so I feel like that’s the category I fall into when asked
#me waving desperately from the third category of Angels being head and shoulders above both of those#is this because I didn’t have a twilight phase. is that what this is

approximately once a month ill get really anxious about the state of the world and my life and family and the future and the self doubt will hit me like a train and suddenly ill be questioning all of my plans and telling myself that i need to stop fucking around and get a proper adult job right now at eleven pee em on a thursday and then ill spend a few hours doomscrolling on indeed dot com more out of guilt than anything else only to realize that the job that will allow me to go the next 5 years without wanting to put a bullet through my head hasnt been invented yet so whats the point of anything really and i always arrive at the same conclusion namely that since all hope is lost anyway i might as well stick with what i really want to do no matter how starry-eyed or economically unwise it may be which isn't the soundest logic but also difficult to argue against and every time i come out of the cycle with a little less faith in myself and no helpful insights whatsoever and i just wonder how many more times i can go through this routine before i give up on my so-called """dreams""" (yuck) for good.
#&#its literally the choice between#personal fulfillment#and a modicum of financial security and personal freedom#like. one is worth very little without the other#but also#i dont have a great shot at either#lmao#theres a good chance ill be both poor and unfulfilled#so why dont i just lie down in the soft brown earth with the grasses waving above my head and listen to the silence (TM)#AND THEN#i remember whats going on in the world#and wonder if i have any reason to complain at all#so anyway i think ill ask my doc about antidepressants#not to be cute etc#make that one helpful insight i guess#deep sigh

I’m begging. Not sure for what but I am in the act.
#i want#the want is endless and unnamable#it hangs like a presence above my head#a tidal wave on the other side of a mirror
