🚨BUNAD MISTAKE SPOTTED🚨

The girl to the left is wearing a Vestfold bunad with a støle-belt. Her vest is laced closed with a silver chain. This is CORRECT. She is wearing all the necessary pieces for a complete bunad. If she wanted to add more details to her outfit, she could add a hat or headband, a silk kerchief, and a cape, but the outfit fits her well and she seems happy in it, so those are just suggestions.

Her friend to the right, however, is dressed in an Eastern Telemark bunad. This bunad does not have a leather belt, but a tablet woven one. She is not wearing a jacket, but she is wearing the jacket's silver brooches, pinned to her belt. this is NOT CORRECT. Trust me, I understand the urge to show off all your silver even though it's too warm for a jacket. But please do not do this! This damages your belt!! Telemark in particular has a tendency to layer so much stuff on top of each other that there will always be beautiful details of your bunad that are hidden from onlookers. That's part of its charm. Learn to embrace it. Do not ruin your woven belt with pins. I would also advise her to not carry as much in her pocket, as it too is tugging on her belt in a way that might tear on it over time. But I must say, her red silk Kerchief is a nice touch to her otherwise relatively plain bunad.

i’m very sorry that society has made you feel this way about your fellow disabled people. i hope you can reflect on why you believe that other people with worse symptoms than you are bringing down this community and giving us a bad name.

(especially in the context of a vent post that is not indicative of whether or not we are “actually trying” in real life.)

i am also sorry that society makes you believe that in order for disabled people to be respected we have to consistently be working toward a nebulous goal of self improvement and overcoming of disability as to not be perceived as lazy and inconsiderate by the world.

i hope you can be kinder and more patient with yourself and your disability in the future, too.

Me when I see WLW content

it's sometimes so silly to look in the notes of a polyamory art/post and see people like "is this cheating art....?" when the characters in canon are all extremely close friends. i know it's not malicious because most people think of monogamy as the default and anything outside that Must be cheating, but truly i'm always like. guys. guys Please.

please think about this for like 2 seconds.

under what circumstances do we think this non-canon couple might hold hands directly in front of their canon partners. and under what circumstances do we think the canon partners might be okay with this. do we Truly think this is a secret relationship. do we Truly think these guys would sneak around behind their canon partners' backs when all of them are extremely close friends with a high level of trust and commitment to each other.

would assuming that these extremely close friends have actually communicated with one another Exactly The Same Way They Do In The Canon Source Material perhaps cause less despair.....

mephone4 and that annoying bitch

Everyone's talking about how cute raccoons are, and while i agree wholeheartedly, all i can think about it the time i was at camp and i woke up to raccoons in our tent cause one was patting my ass through my cot, and then another grabbed one of the other girls' hands and she screamed and our councilor had to literally sweep the raccoons out of our tent with the broom she grabbed to hit intruders with lol. we made extra sure everything was zipped all the way closed after that

Why are people wanting to fucking kill Glisten over forgetting a NAME????

Like I get it we all know her name and such and it’s sad that’s she’s forgotten all the time but MESSING UP NAMES IS COMMON???? My real name is difficult to say/remember/pronounce for a lot of people, but we don’t want to MAKE THEM SUFFER. WE DON’T WANT TO KILL THEM.

It’s really NOT that big of a deal. It happened once.

Trying to figure out why I find the concept of someone answering my phone uninvited so outrageous and I think it's because 1) I'm a Millennial, my phone is basically part of me and 2) while I am perfectly comfortable asking practically anybody to answer my phone in time of need, someone doing that without me asking them* is someone interposing themselves uninvited between me and someone trying to communicate with me and that in itself feels violating even without 1). Depending on the circumstances it could be actively threatening.

I would (and did) feel much less strongly so about landlines because a landline belongs to a location, not a person. Can still be circumstantially creepy-to-threatening though.

*please assume obvious edge-cases like being medically incapacitated, trapped, etc are exceptions, we're talking about normal everyday situations here

I don't know much of Chapell Roan but im so glad she doesn't take shit from rude fans. She should be allowed to kill them next

Tonight we did an impromptu training session with the visiting judge after the trial ended, and it felt like I was publicly eviscerated. Her approach was tough love, but I'm not in a place to receive that. What I need right now is empathy and optimism. I just felt incredibly defensive, embarrassed and sad. I held it together until I was driving home.

Anyway, she didn't say anything I didn't already know. She also saw me run Marceline when I've been through nearly two years of a downward trend where nothing I have tried has improved the situation. So yeah, I am not performing well and I don't have it in me to be positive when I am in a demoralised state. I know that's not a good place to be, but it's the reality.

Of course, the answer is pay someone to fix it. I don't know who can fix it, and I don't have much money to pay. I don't have the ability to travel for workshops or seminars to get in-person training. I don't know who to fly up on the club's dime that would actually know how to help, and I don't even think I would get time to work with them given that I have to run the club so any seminar hosted by the club means I'd have to run it which means less time to train.

I know that these are just excuses to some, but they're also reasons that fixing this problem is hard. And I don't really feel like pretending it's not hard for me when it is. I'm not the kind of person who sees my dog repeatedly say no and just be able to switch on a happy face and pretend everything's fine, push through it positively, or laugh as I walk away. I was getting picture perfect performance in training, with all the enthusiasm you could desire, and then the literal next day at trial the picture was so colossally different... I don't know man.

I've been sad about this too much. I simply don't have endless money to throw at it, especially if I don't know the money I spend will actually give me the answers I need.

I don't know. I don't know.

so hard to pick a side in the bug lover vs bug hater fight because both "sides" seem weirdly extreme about their beliefs. i recognize the importance of insects to the ecosystem and dont want to extinguish all of them, much less be an asshole on people's posts about bugs they like. mosquitoes also transmit dangerous diseases people in my town have been literally dying over and im gonna kill one if i see it, and i dont think thats the biggest sin ever. subscribing to bug centrism

[kaiserkisser]

can someone nice (!!) please please please adopt me im begging you im requesting you (huge word vomit and vent in tags, pls dont read if u dont want to!! and if you don't want this stuff on this blog PLS lmk!! i dont wanna make anyone uncomfy! )

[batbirdies]

You know I’m really not a member of the “you must comment on any fic you enjoy ever or else you do not deserve to read my free content” ie the “fandom is dying” crowd for many varying reasons.

But I’m equally not a member of the “be grateful anyone comments at all even if they’re rude, don’t be so sensitive” crowd for many more varying reasons.

Like both of you need to learn some balance I think.
