trying to figure out how to say this delicately. i do think that the pwhl is going to make some progress, and already the support for the league is showing how much of a market there is for women's sports even from a few years ago. but it's kind of been irking me to see so many posts that act like there has never been any arena for women's pro hockey before. like do you understand how many people — how many leagues!! — came before this to even make the pwhl a possibility. do you know how many people have fought tooth and nail for women's pro hockey for DECADES. i'm not saying don't support the league, but don't act like it's the perfect solution to a brand new issue

Not to just like. Talk about the fact I likely have a personality disorder or anything but something that bothers me is how there are people out there who have stuff like BPD (like me) and NPD and other disorders who experience "stereotypical" symptoms. And because of the pushback against stereotypes (which is understandable!) we've ended up with the opposite effect where if the way your disorder manifests is too close to how neuroptypicals expect you to act then you're suddenly like, invalid or whatever. Idk man I think we should just accept the fact that there exist people who experience a disorder the "stereotypical" way and be accepting of those people instead of telling them "erm well mine doesn't work like that so obviously you're faking"

The struggle of being an aroace writer who loves reading and writing romance and love stories and shipping right up until the point where mouth kissing happens. Like I genuinely for the life of me cannot stand reading or writing kiss scenes. And it's not like I view it as an inherently sexual act, it's just that the concept and action of kissing someone on the mouth just seems so awkward to me.

wait so the "you are me" scene between mahito and yuji started to only make sense now because yuji's cursed technique is related to the soul as well?

I keep seeing this take that "oh, Donatella has to have a different reason for her feelings towards psychics than the rest of the family since she married in so the curse doesn't affect her!" and like. I'm not saying she CAN'T have other reasons and it could be interesting to explore that!
but also, like, I think the fact that she spent years--at least Frazie and/or Dion's lifetimes--thinking that her husband and children were in constant danger of drowning...yeah that'd mess you up pretty bad

[Definitely toying with the idea of none of the Lunas having kids due to a few deals with demons/entities. Could also play into why his mom moved to Chicago.]

Thinking about how Lincoln Broadsheet said he worked in the newspaper industry for 25 years, and this game takes place in 2004 so he's worked since 1979. Idk how old he is, he looks 34 to me at the least.
He DID say that he likes music from the 60's - 70's, but idk if it means anything.

daily affirmation of the fact that i have in fact experienced romantic attraction (in a prophecy) and Know for a fact that i am aro (god knew i hated it and saved me from experiencing that hell ever again) even though i crave intimacy and close relationships (we live in amatonormativy, boo) it can be whatever the fuck i want it to be (qpr, romantic, platonic, unlabeled, it's up to me and whoever) !!!

I just rewatched the Reservation Dogs episode where Elora's grandmother dies and it got me thinking abut the way spirits/ghosts are generally represented in a lot of the media I grew up watching, mostly made by and for Christian white people. The idea of spirits, as I know it, is based on the presumption that death is scary, unknown. A terror. That's what gives stories of haunting so much power.
None of the characters on Reservation Dogs react to spirits with fear. Sometimes they're exasperated with them, but mostly they bring them peace. Makes me think about that community in Indonesia (if I recall correctly) that keeps the bodies of their loved ones in their homes for weeks afterwards, taking care of them and continuing to treat them as part of the family. Grief remains, but the intimate relationship with death seems like it does away with so much of the fear of what comes after.
Seems like a much healthier way of thinking about death than cloaking it in this loaded ominous silence.

This may just be me overthinking, but I don't think Stregabor is responsible for the novices disappearing? It seems so obvious that it would be him, that I almost don't believe it. Also, the song playing in the background, "all is not, as it seems."
