#it's fucking frustrating as hell

[tehmiesh]

it is not a buyout and it is incredibly frustrating the media has spun it as such. it is a scare tactic to get us to "resign" so he can obliterate the federal workforce bc he cannot just fire 75% of us like they want. they want to make the government appear inefficient so they can argue that it always was and then privatize everything for their own profit. they do not care about the average citizen. they do not know what it means to be a public servant and they have villainized us for simply doing our jobs for the taxpayers. they only care about deepening their pockets.

this last week and a half has been exhausting and terrifying. federal workers just want to do our job and help the people despite the constant villainization and utter hatred we receive from the general public.

I do not plan to give in and give them what they want, but I am miserable and utterly exhausted. while my closest friends try to show support, without working in government it is so hard to fully understand, especially going off of headlines.

the every day federal worker is not your enemy. most of us became public servants bc we love the work that we do. and we just want to do our jobs.

At this point I feel like Marvel is never going to give Moon Knight an appearance in the MCU ever again. No season 2, no movie, NOTHING SINCE THEY APPARENTLY FORGOT THEY MADE A WHOLE ASS SHOW AND ESTABLISHED A WHOLE ASS CHARACTER(S), LEFT IT ON A CLIFFHANGER AND IT'S BEEN 3 FUCKING YEARSSSSSSS

We can never win

While I don't headcanon Law to have any other piercings I do think tongue piercings are pretty cool so he can have one as a treat.

...I do, however, headcanon that Law has really good head game. Interpret that (and Sanji's reaction) as you will.

i NEED NEED NEED people to start to understand that Bethesda Game Studios and Bethesda Softworks are not the same fucking company, and that just because something has fallout or tes slapped on it doesnt mean todd forged it himself in his basement instead of working on tes 6 or fallout 5 or whatever the fuck else you want. the oblivion remake isnt todd, it isnt Bethesda Game Studios, its Virtuous making it, with Bethesda Softworks publishing it. is todd involved to some degree? probably! but his fucking team is not making this game so please fucking stop acting like because this remaster exists that theyre not working on the other games you want. todd works at a different company

Helaena was such an irrelevant character in the book the show writers had to make her a dreamer to make her interesting but it flopped so hard because here's this girl who has foresight and knows most of the terrible things gonna happen and just...doesn't do anything about it. She's like oh my mother and grandfather will have my brother usurp the rightful named heir, force me to marry my abusive rapist brother, and my son will die? And I'll commit suicide??? The realm will be torn apart and destroyed because of Hightower greed and ambition??? IT FUCKIN MAY AS WELL HAPPEN HAHAHA IM JUST VIBIN WITH MY BUGS BRUH

Like fucking WHAT?!

for real if we continue on this path of hating and excluding cisgender + heterosexual people we will all descend down into the path of terf rhetoric. you cannot be accepting, you cannot create a welcoming space for people while focusing your efforts on mocking others. where do you think the phrase "kill all men / men are trash" was born out of. not love and acceptance that's for sure! why do you think terfs so commonly uplift feminity as this Pure Separate Totally Specific Category Only A Few People Get To Reach? why do you think a specific group of people get to be inherently lesser? what are you doing

Just wanted to make a post to say that I don't plan on being active in this fandom anymore.

I started posting in this fandom because I saw a problem, and I wanted to fix that. There was a severe underappreciation and negligence towards certain characters and aspects of the show which seemed unjust to leave untouched. I wanted people to full appreciate everything this show had offered and what it meant to me. I really wanted change.

However, as time went on, the more I stayed, the more I realised that was just wishful thinking. These days, I swear I'm just screaming at a brick wall. I'm trying petition for certain characters/AnB, and people simply do not care. Although I guess that was foolish on my part because I'm trying to change a group of people who are effectively incapable of it. Change is a good thing, and if that's something people in this fandom are unable to do, then I don't want to be part of it.

Hatred was a problem in this fandom when I came into the fandom, and it still is now. People taking things that other people put genuine time and passion into and using it in inappropriate ways that OBVIOUSLY don't sit right with the creators was a problem then and still is now. People destroying the love of this show for others was a problem then and is still a problem now. This fandom only caters to certain type of fans, and judging by the cycle, I really do not think it has the capacity to change.

I'll still answer Octonauts-related asks, and I might post a whim-of-the-moment thing when I feel like it, but I don't want to dedicate any more time and energy to this fandom because it's genuinely become joyless.

I'd prefer to just protect my peace.
