Okay, I will say that I think the show de-emphasizing the sheer level of "we want Ciri for her bloodline" in the Witcher books in favor of, idk, everyone being either like "she belongs at my side" (fuck off, Emhyr) or "I can train her on how to use her exceptional power" feels like it is maybe a little bit missing the STRONG Pro-Choice point.
#the witcher for ts#i am NOT articulate enough for this but it is a thought i am having#vilgefortz wanted to artificially inseminate ciri in the books iirc!!! maybe he's just not revealing that hand yet#but i remember a lot of the villains were about gross bloodline shit#i guess i shouldn't complain since it was all very gross. but it felt like A Point.#(the delighted laugh that busted out of me when geralt snarled that OBVIOUSLY it was milva's decision what to do about her pregnancy)#(because 'pro-life' is asinine!)#(the show wouldn't dare adapt that)#anyway#kate watches the witcher#kate reads the witcher novels#blanket book reading tag

something about the black parade almost destroying the band and the members’ lives, it going on to change countless people’s lives and inspire hope for a generation, them performing it for the first time in 17 years in the most stunning, raw display of the album’s power, with the same passion and honesty behind the music as always, the message resonating in all the same layered heavy-hitting ways as well as fresh nuanced ways with countless fans old and new alike…something something beauty coming from pain, something something rebirth and hope something something never let them take you alive…
#i don’t know#i just#i have thoughts#that i am not articulate enough to convey#or even comprehend#this band#man#they are so powerful#and#they mean so much to me#i am emotional#i love them forever#my chemical romance#mcr#gerard way#frank iero#ray toro#mikey way#wwwy fest#wwwy 2024

creating for a fandom from teenage years to adulthood is so special because you can see where your subconscious was through the history of your works
#just thought about this because i for fun started drafting a fic where marinette's 21 and seeing people her age doing#'grown up' stuff like getting married#and she's like? what? i still go to my mum when i need help? how are people my age having BABIES when i AM a baby?#but last year i was writing a lot about first year of uni vibes or living with flatmates etc#the year before that i was writing about dealing with depression and anxiety and feeling constantly at war with yourself and people you love#before that i was writing about friendships drifting away after the transition from secondary education -> further education#before that it was about dealing with jealousy when you have feelings for someone but not knowing how to properly articulate it#before that it was general stuff about impostor syndrome and worrying about inherently not being good enough#i dont know. i just love that i can see my own growth through how i have written and do write marinette and adrien#they have grown with me...! from 15 to 16 to 17 to 18 to 19 to 20 to 21#♡alizeh talks♡

don't touch me. don't talk to me. don't look at me. don't perceive me. don't regard me. don't. just don't.
#pit babe#pit babe the series#i am#speechless#im going to need several minutes#if not hours when this airs#you'll find me wandering the foggy streets of this city#i will freeze and burn and collapse and be put back together#no the promo and the jacket and the hand holding wasn't enough#no now pete has to go and look at him like that#im nothing if not consistent#this has the potential to ruin me destroy me k1ll me#your local way enthusiast is going through it keep her in your prayers#i have so many thoughts and yet no ability to articulate them now#thanks waypete

Somebody smarter than me should write an analysis about Falin’s role in the narrative as literally both the Damsel and the Dragon.
#dungeon meshi#dungeon meshi manga spoilers#I did not think I would have so many thoughts and feelings about falin but I do#but I am not nearly articulate enough to express them

honestly it's been really healing being back to actively contributing things and writing out thoughts on tumblr the last week or so, because while twitter tends to be easier for me to write out Thoughts on without getting overwhelmed, the environment in the twitter fandom circles i'm interested in is not only infested with antis but cliqueish in a way that is caustic to the fucking soul if you try to express a thought that's more than three sentences long--a hundred times over if you're autistic in slightly the wrong way--and it's incredibly reassuring to come back to an environment where the very kindest and most inclusive people toward you are not clearly thinking the r-slur the entire time they interact with you lmao
#whosebaby talks#took an incident of just open petty cruelty the other day for me to finally go#you know what all of this is doing a huge number on my self-esteem and scrupulosity and social anxiety and mental health overall#sometimes it pays to hold out and give the benefit of the doubt#when your knee-jerk reaction is to think something Must Be a Sign of Shitty Intent; bc often it will turn out that wasn't the case at all#but unfortunately sometimes it turns out people are in fact just being shitty in exactly the way you thought they were#and at the *very* best you are incompatible in such a way that if they don't have bad intentions you're just never going to be able to tell#or well. not even necessarily bad *intentions*; just shitty behavior that's harmful to you regardless of whether they mean well#sometimes you just gotta accept that even if neither of you *is* being shitty it's not worth your peace of mind to never be able to confirm#and it's better to just save both of you the stress and not try to pursue that.#it fuckin sucks when it's people you think are cool and really want to get to know; it's a hard lesson to learn; but it's the way sometimes#......and then sometimes the confirmation you finally get is that yeah okay this is some bullshit#and not in a way that can likely be communicated past; no matter how much effort you make to be kind; clear; and mature#and being publicly humiliated for carefully trying to yes-and some clarification on meta of mine#which was being used in ways i was deeply uncomfortable with; and had had no warning would take the turn that it did#and which was contributing to the original post gaining traction in the first place#all targeted in ways pretty much tailor-made to hurt someone with specific issues they had seen me talk about + acknowledged#was just. yeah i think i'm done here lmao#i am Not someone who takes down meta once posted#so the fact that it was bad enough to make me delete an entire thread really says something lol#anyway. lots of other context there; and i appreciate that in some ways the person was genuinely trying to be kind; but i'm. yeah.#that shit Hurted Extremely; and made me realize that while i'm not the *most* well-socialized or articulate or approachable#there is just something in the water over there and no amount of The Problem Not Being Me would have mattered#and the nice asks/replies/comments i've gotten both recently and during hibernation make me feel warm inside; thank y'all <3#the salt files#bullying cw#ableism cw

#sylvie speaks#(in the tags because this isn't a complete enough though to make a proper post out of)#(and i will probably delete it anyway)#i am having Thoughts about creating and sharing and credit#and what it means to be a creator on the internet#(as much as that term has become loaded now)#i have mostly accepted that i do not get to control what people do with my words once i post them in a public forum#i will ask and i will request and i will trust in the goodness of strangers#but there will always be some people acting in ignorance or malice#and really when it comes to things like gifsets and fics and such i am so so happy for people to use them#even if it's for a fandom/media/ship that i might personally dislike or find uncomfy or some such thing#because it inspired and someone found meaning in my words and that is. all i can ever really ask#and they tend to be well credited anyway#and even if they aren't i think most people recognize that the quotes probably came from someone else#i'm not even as upset about poems floating around wholesale uncredited#(i'd have a personal vendetta the size of the pacific ocean against pinterest if i did)#but when it becomes credited to someone else#or when someone else claims credit for it#that... that does upset me in ways i find hard to articulate#and takes me by surprise in its stark contrast to how little i care about the other kinds of usage#i think it's about ownership perhaps#it is one thing to let something go#it is another thing entire for someone else to take it for themselves#it is mine; or it was; and i don't mind sharing i really don't#you don't even have to say thank you or tell me you're using it or even say it's mine#(though i much much much prefer that you do)#but it feels deeply violating for someone else to slap their name on it#i am perhaps slightly more bitter about this than usual#bc i recently discovered another piece of blatant plagiarism#that isn't worth pursuing but it does make me sad

“Even if it’s not my fault, it’s still my accident, it’s still my mess. It’s still something that - exists, because I do” oh. and he just doesn’t know another way to help, either, because all his life has been screwing up without helpful direction in order to meet impossible standards, and so there is no other way than to bleed himself dry. for the cause, for a friend in need, for anyone he doesn’t know. especially for the problems that he himself creates, because to him his pure existence has always been the problem, because the elders were fucked as hell and traumatized him to no end - so even causing problems is a sin. a single mistake is a sin. it always has been. and it’s rough trying to learn anything other than that mindset - but Jay and Chip won’t let him struggle alone.
and it’s like - that’s what comes with being raised the way he was. punished for imperfection, but there’s no guidebook, no definition of perfect. and so perfect is never good enough anyway. it’s a trap and there is no winning, so there’s nothing else to do but take the blame and bear it, and internalize it. and it makes actual failure and actual mistakes that much more painful. of course responsibility needs to be taken for your actions - but when you’ve been taking responsibility for everything, up to and including the literal fate of the world, all of your life, every outcome is your fault. and guilt only builds, and resentment only festers. of course he hates the elders for how they treated him. of course he hates himself.
he’s grabbing his own destiny and making his own choices - but the thing about making your own choices is that there are so many of them. there’s no destiny to blame anymore. and all you can do is the best you can. and it’s not always going to be good enough. he’s learned plenty about failure, but with Jay and Chip around, maybe he’ll learn about second chances, and self forgiveness. maybe he’ll learn that accidents aren’t always met with extremes. and that he’s not the only one left to deal with a mess if he slips up and breaks something.
#after their talk and their big spar part 2 and everything I’m choosing to hope for the up and up#I just. I dunno. again. y’all ever think about how he never lays on hands to heal himself? because I do#I’m calling it what it is tw for the tags here but#passive suicidality. and it’s scary and tough to deal with especially under these conditions he’s under and it’s like#he’s someone who can be seen as bigger than life almost a moral role model. a hero of sorts. and still he thinks he’ll never be good enough#abuse will do that to a mf#but like. idk jay shot him and he forgave her. and chip can be a downright bastard and he still cares for him. as much as his own#morals and nature have rubbed off on the other captains they’ve also rubbed off on him. I mean sarcasm? pranks?#chip is valuing others more and more. and so maybe gillion will value himself more and more. yknow?#after every mistake he’s made and the others have made they’re still crew. family. and ain’t that somethin?#I dunno. taking responsibility isn’t just bleeding yourself out as retribution. there has to be a balance. and for gillion (and chip tbh)#that’s difficult. and something I am hoping they will continue improving on#idk. I have many thoughts without full articulation I’m just kinda spinning them all in my brain yknow#jrwi riptide 86#jrwi#jrwi riptide#gillion tidestrider#character analysis#z speaks

I am so normal about the island being symbolic of a post-colonial state with it's lost culture.
#Autumn's Thoughts#I am not articulate enough to give a whole thing of vauguard as a colonial state and what it means for the island#but others have done anyways

omg what did you just notice about the cadair idris battle scene? I'm so curious now
Oh, this is so genuinely deeply underwhelming, but this part of the battle way at the beginning:
I just hadn’t noticed that the automaton stood up as opposed to just sat up between these two moments, presumably in smooth motion:
ei, sat up, grabbed Henry, stood up while keeping hold on him, was standing by the time shit hit the span, presumably less than a second since Charlotte couldn’t bridge the gap.
For certain taking “a step forward” to tear out a silent brothers throat (uhhh RIP Brother Micah you were a walking death flag) requires standing at full height.
Plus logically speaking, to pull off that sort of attack on a 6’4 adult man then physically throwing his body is most logical if the automaton stands up.
I specifically never processed the “took a step forward line” which a) gives means I evidently have the reading comprehension skills of a kindergartner and b) gave me an instant internal crisis.
TLDR: when the automaton “sat up” it stood up, which makes complete sense, doesn’t really change anything, and I didn’t notice.
#Yeah this is absolutely irrlevant to the scene but have you considered; I am incredibly autistic#It’s killing me btw#That detail makes the scene SO much worse. And by worse I mean better for me.#“Comfort scene” (the most traumatizing moment of that characters life)#There is NOTHING comforting about that scene I just. I like it okay. It destroys me deeply. Retching on the floor. Gagging.#In defense of my reading comprehension my brain short-circuits by “but she was not fast enough”#Moments that have permanently reshaped my life: those four pages#There is a reason I have like twenty pages in my fic drafts solely related to that scene#I can’t even articulate thoughts. Fuck. Just. Blorbo. Autsim. Do you understand.#The way I could talk about that scene for hours and none of it would be coherent#There is no salvation for me

genuinely, when will it end??? I am so tired of being here and I am not sure how much longer I can push myself to keep going. i’m exhausted.
#it’s 4am and I am feeling the Deep Darkies#I literally passed out at 9pm from mental exhaustion & also bc I wanted to start to get up early to start a morning routine#so I actually got a ton of sleep but the second I woke up I felt like I wanted to cry and now I feel so depressed out of no where#like girl WHYYYY#genuinely I am so debilitatingly depressed I have suicidal thoughts every single day#and I feel like ive tried everything to help myself like ive been to therapy ive been on and off meds for over a decade at this point#im starting to eat better and sleep more#like what the duck else do I do?#I genuinely feel like my brain is broken#I just want to cry and lay in bed every single day#like I cannot articulate the profound sadness into words but it’s. so bad#and it takes literally all my brain power to do one assignment a day for class like none of this is sustainable#and I just feel so much shame over it bc whenever I tell my mom she gets mad like it effects her or something and the few times ive made th#mistake of trying to confide in my dad he gave me the whole pull yourself up by the bootstraps talk so never again lol#my entire family has made me feel so much shame over it and none of my friends here even bother to ask how I feel and don’t make me feel#comfortable enough to talk to bc i’m always the fucking therapist friend helping everyone else#hence why I always vent on here lol I have no one to talk to#I just really don’t know what to do at this point like I feel like I need inpatient therapy at this point but that’s expensive and I don’t#want to tell my job why i’d need extended time off bc that would be so embarrassing and plus now i’m in school#so like what do I do#im tired of feeling like this I know this isn’t how life is supposed to be but it’s also all ive ever known#and what’s the point of living if i’m going to feel like this everyday?

i've been frequently told i have no identifiable gender by my peers and in passing, people on the street a couple times have said to the person next to them "is that a girl or a boy?"
i've been frequently called an "it" and a "thing" which should realistically upset me since by most it would be considered dehumanising [although not all of the time on purpose, mostly out of pure confusion as far as i can tell] but i am not offended by it at all, in fact i do not mind it [even though i do have a definite gender] since i already feel so alien to my peers, straining my face and voice and muscles and thoughts putting on a human suit every day in order to fit in, which does not work very well at the end of the day
it does not come naturally to me at all
I have to contort myself into unnatural shapes
all that said, i do [and don't] like the idea of being seen in that sort of way, strange and ambiguous but at the same time it is lonely, at the same time, i want to be able to bring up casual conversation like every body else can without it being forced, even though it is so banal. i want there to not an awkward air after every thing i say that even i notice , i want to be able to let out noises that occur in my speech naturally, and flap my hands and rock in my chair and assume my natural posture without every single person trying to get away from me. at the same time i prefer to be alone, because that is when i can truly be myself, by myself i can unzip the disguise i have made for myself
maybe it is more that i yearn for someone i can truly and completely unmask with, other than myself. even with my closest friends i do not do this with [hello]
where we do not even have to speak but we can just enjoy each others company in complete comfort, no expectations, just being ourselves
i really do feel like something inhuman approximating and just mimicking when i do talk. but i do it because otherwise i yearn for that type of connection with others without it i will be more jealous of people that have it, with it it is like i am saying "look, look, i can do it as well, i can have friends as well" the absence of this mask is social suicide
#yes#i am autistic#and gender non conforming#i am not saying i dislike being autistic because a lot of the time i do enjoy aspects of it such as enjoying a hyperfixation or proficiency#in certain areas#i enjoy the different perspective it gives me#although i wish i could hop into a NT persons mind in order to compare the two#i don't have anything to compare it to so i don't know how different my experience of the world truly is#of course i can read about it and visualise it but the qualia of autistic and allistic brains can never be experienced by the other#i wish everything wasn't so loud#and bright#and too much#a lot of this is why i enjoy DHMIS i think#i could go on forever about how i can relate to it through this autistic lense#everything is garish#and nothing makes sense#and when you're taught things the way they're taught is entirely nonsensical#no matter how you do things you seem to do them incorrectly because the person teaching you how is not being specific enough#yellow guy i know how you feel you are like me#i could talk about it for a very long time but i cannot completely articulate those thoughts in a satisfactory way at the moment#talking
