@netflix

I know my voice holds no weight.

I know it's not going to do anything.

I know Netflix cancels shows all the time.

But this one fucking hurts.

I was so taken aback that a show as good, inclusive and well made as Dead Boy Detectives even was created in the first place. It made me and so many other queer people feel comforted and accepted.

Every time I've felt shitty lately I've turned to DBD. At this point I've lost count of how many times I've re-watched it.

I love this show with all my heart. I don't want to see it evaporate like all the others. I don't want this amazing fandom to die off like so many I've seen before.

it's so interesting that gideon opens his heart so quickly and completely and irrevocably to twig, while regarding mishka -- a parallel little sister/kid figure with some worrying hag magic attached, who also is in a situation similar to and has overlapping trauma with his own; they both have the scars of manacles around their wrists and are exploited for some inborn capacity other people want to make use of -- with such measured distanced distrust. and any reason you want to imagine there makes so much sense! it could be it's just too much like his own situation and he can't go there without getting into contact with things in himself he'd rather not feel or remember. might be instinctive flinch-away from still dealing with what happened to twig (and then jabberwock party wipe horror on top of that as a further attachment anxiety booster -- he didn't see kremy die since he's the first to go, but he sure gets to hear the story afterwards), and not wanting to risk that pain again so soon. twig meeting him at a moment where he was ready to let someone into his fiercely guarded in-group, and mishka didn't? just plain differences in personal chemistry (again... mishka is a lot like him in a lot of ways. perhaps. too much for comfort from some angles)?

if his trauma brain has decided that NO I've got kremy under one wing and twigsy under the other and sorry kid I only have two fucking wings, nothing is ever going to take this from me again while I'm alive to fight for it (the way they took my dad and my home and all those years of my life)... biggest FAIR ENOUGH GID! AS YOU WERE GID YOU DO YOU GID!! in history honestly even if it is a bit unfair to mishka

Greetings, you lovely fools.

I just wanted to wish everyone a happy spring. I'm not sure what else to put in this post.

To celebrate, I dressed up like Alice in Wonderland (because why not? My pyjamas are literally a blue dress. I also have an apron. It was easy.) I also had a slice of chocolate cake for breakfast for the first time in my life.

There was a bit of an aftertaste, because the cake is two days old (my mom's birthday was two days ago), but otherwise it was fine. Not bad.

Not sure what I'll do today. Probably dance naked or summon Mesopotamian rain gods or something. Or I could just call my boyfriend up and tell him happy spring or something. Maybe I'll go for a walk. Probably get some antihistamines, because my allergies are so bad that I legit cannot BREATHE and it's making me feel immediately exhausted.

I DO have an appointment for my heart doctor, but that's okay. I hope it won't take too long, though.

To celebrate, I am posting the Rite of Spring ballet because I love classical music and Stravinsky and I just want to dance to something that sounds utterly discordant.

(DUN dun dun dun, DUN dun dun dun, DUN-dun-dun, DUN-dun, DUN-duh-duh)

Anyways, Happy Spring Solstice!

Hey did I ever tell y'all about the time I dreamed that I had a baby daughter called Ellie that began with my finding out I was pregnant and ended on like her third birthday?

I legitimately woke up thinking "I should go check on Ellie" and then realised she was never real and when I tell you I SOBBED. I've been haunted by an implacable sense of loss ever since. Did I travel to another dimension? Wtf happened because that was insane.

Star Wars: The Old Republic could have at least had the decency to inform me I'd be able to unlock Lesbian Behavior after I got far enough into the expansions. My hot Sith has a whole ass husband and then when I see the option to flirt with a female NPC, it's all out the window.

AND AFTER I'VE HAD THESE EMAILS IN MY BACK POCKET, TOO.

I'M HAVING AN AFFAIR BECAUSE I DIDN'T REALIZE I'D UNLOCK LESBIANISM LATER IN THE GAME. AND I FEEL HORRIBLE ABOUT IT.

FUCK.

something. Interesting to me is when human characters going up against a more powerful being (alien, divine, transformed human, etc) they use the phrase "we're like ants/flies/mice to them", not only to convey their comparative lack of power, but also to convey the disregard the being has for humans. Because it implies that the human norm is to disregard these creatures, or even dislike them, and doesn't really reflect on what that may imply about human cultures where that sentiment is indeed common.

It reminds me about how I was talking to someone at work and mentioned how much the bugs bother me at work because they get on my papers, and I have to smack my clipboard to get them off without squishing them. He immediately said something like "why? Squish them, they're annoying". It baffled me for a second, so I just told him I don't like to have stains on my papers, since that seemed like a reason he'd understand- but really, when I accidentally squish bugs while brushing them off, I feel bad. They aren't hurting me. They don't even comprehend that they're annoying or why.
