Due to the sheer number of Gaza-related donation soliciting in my askbox as of late, I am shutting down my asks for the time being. Re-labeling the askbox message as "Only fandom questions" didn't seem to help one bit. (Guess these people can't put two and two together and take a hint. Hrm. Funny how that fucking works.)

Guys, gals, and everything-in-between -- I live in an area that just got positively sideswiped by Hurricane Helene. Life was difficult before, but it is harder now. I do not want a bunch of strangers harassing my inbox for money I don't even have.

If anyone needs to get ahold of me for fandom-related reasons (i.e. for my analysis posts), you can hit me up in the replies for those posts, and the reblogs!

#ramblings of the mad #this year has been awful for me #the hurricane just put a cherry on top #the soliciting was irritating enough before #but when it's back to back like it has been #it is spam #it is literally fucking spam #i am tired of it #i am just tired #it's like having my boundaries violated over and over again with no end in sight #and all it ever feels like is entitlement #look if you follow me and want to block me over this i understand #i just #i can't help but feel bitter at how politics has divided everyone #online it's all 'ur speaking disinformation'#'ur a conspiracy theorist'#coming through this hurricane i have had the privilege of witnessing how a community can blossom in times of crisis #of everyone putting aside politics to help each other #but because of politics the world will forget this suffering #even as people freeze to death and their children and surviving pets freeze to death #i'm tired #i'm tired of politics #tired of the greed #if you come into my reblogs and go 'oh lol now u know how gaza feels'#'how ukraine feels'#fuck you and enjoy your block #real charity begins at home #anything else is just a virtue signal #i think the real exacting cost of social media was ensuring that everybody would forget how to be human #turned against each other
