[A package arrives]

[The attached note reads]

"Hello there, it is quite irritating that this is all I can do for now, however, enclosed in this box is

My dear Lady Rosceline's favourite coffee blend

Lady Ren's favourite tea blend

Their mother's favourite tea set (she is going to be livid)

I wish you freedom and good fortune,

There are always outliers,

None are free till all are free,

Marceline [CALLSIGN: FALSEHOOD]

P.S. Turns out, you can strip most of a GMS Chomolungma down to something that'll weld pretty easy to a hardsuit

P.P.S. I can provide a personalised "stats sheet" for such a creation, should you wish

P.P.P.S. The sheet will involve multiple NHPs, we aren't necessary to the "build", but, as I said, personalised

I have struggled with how to answer this.

I have never been given a gift like this before, did you know that? This set seems handmade, the coffee and tea fresh and rich smelling. It speaks to me of great luxury, unlike what we find here on Sanjak.

It makes me wonder your motivations in sending such a gift, though I don't know you. Are you seeking to endear me to your employers? To get such a package past the blockade is difficult, and a thing that is done with great expense.

If that is the case then I'd have to refuse, of course, and send it back. My issue with them is not personal, my support cannot be bought. It is rather ideological, an issue I have with the fact of their status, and the violence that must be done to maintain it. With what I have heard of the state of the house you serve, this violence is a thing you must be aware of keenly. You'd understand, then, that my problem is the hierarchy, and the clinging to a status that necessitates the superiority of some over others: one that always carries the potential for abuse, and has few outlets for rectifying that abuse.

(You've said to me before that you do enjoy serving, which I understand: but there is a difference between the choice to serve and the compulsion. Between a compact between lovers and a legal distinction that binds regardless of actual consent.)

I'd reiterate, in that instance, that kindness doesn't matter beside the fact of status, and if this is an offering as one would give to the Passions for forgiveness of a transgression I can only refuse, for I have no capacity to forgive such a thing and, even if I did, I feel I can only forgive an abuse that isn't still ongoing. (In that way I am quite forgiving indeed: one of my good friends is a former noble that has given up her old titles. Let me know if yours does too and I'll be happy to learn the Crosslandic ruleset for kapkat.)

However, if this is only a kindness you seek to do then I'll accept it in that spirit. I am not wanting for the heirlooms of deposed nobles, and will likely return the set anyway when the opportunity next strikes. I have a sneaking feeling that it might be involved in some petty scheme of nobles primarily invested in annoying one another that I wish to have no involvement with, but you can consider it a possession of yours. Share it with your fellows, I'm certain you deserve it.

As for the frame, I've said before that we lack the need for firepower, and we have limited support capacity for NHPs, but let me know if you wish for me to print you here anyway. You'll find little presence of NHPro here; Union keeps their hands off us for now, and if you would like the safe haven, I am happy to offer it.

the way the show handles tim shepard actually makes me SO incredibly insane. yeah. Tim's a tough hood. he's a heat wave. he's a greaser. he's a criminal. he's always two inches from Darry's face. He draws. He wants to go to Mexico. he once took the fall for Darry when they were 15 n stole a car n went joy ridin. he treats pony n soda like they were his kid brothers. he's got mommy issues. he'd kill ya for sayin somethin. he's good with babies n no one makes fun of him for it. he hates bein accused of shit he didn't do. he goes to pick Two Bit up from jail. he works in the stables. he's a greaser through n through. he practically lives in the curtis' kitchen. he-

I thought it would be funny to sketch what Wally was up to in the bug clips- since they all seem to be in his pov!

One thing about the "mutuals can ask for pics" type of post is it feels like theres no way to not sound like a dweeb asking, "Erm, is this where the cock pics are", they may not cost money but the real price is finding a normal way to ask that isn't "Re: Your post where you offered mutuals hole pics"

stg, being an enjoyer of jane twdg is like being forced into an expert-level course on the way misogyny manifests in video game spaces.

god forbid a woman be complex or difficult or provably mischaracterized (see tags) at the end of her arc to service the culmination of a man’s storyline.

It's weird being simultaneously jewish and non-jewish at the exact same time. Because to non-jews, I am jewish. They see someone like me, and they don't typically care about the intricacies of jewish thought and law - they only see a jew, and they react accordingly. This isn't malicious on their end, I think, it's just a consequence of not being jewish or having people close to you who are. But to jews, they know that I'm not jewish yet, correctly so I may add, and I'm treated as such.

I'm not complaining about being treated as jewish or not being treated as jewish, but I'm saying it's a weird tug-of-war where I simultaneously am and am not. I don't compromise on where I am visibly associated with jews, and as a consequence, I'm treated as a jew for good and bad. I want that, though. Even when I have been terrified of being visibly associated with jews, I wouldn't abandon it.
