I am SO grateful that ed and stede exist as characters exactly as they are. I'm so grateful for these two men who are traumatized and messed up and struggle to even like themselves, who are terrible at communicating, who make enough mistakes between the two of them to fill an entire ocean. I am so grateful to watch them struggle and be seen and be loved and reach out for the things they want and are maybe starting to believe that they deserve. I'm so grateful that the show lets them fall in love and get together exactly as they are, that it doesn't say they need to wait until they've become some unattainably perfect version of themselves before they have permission to have that. i am so grateful for ofmd
#ofmd#there are no other shows like this one#I'm so tired of media that repeats the same idea that you need to hit a list of predetermined therapy milestones (determined by who???)#before you can fall in love#I'm honestly tired of fic that does this with ed and stede too#because guess what#you can live in the 21st century with access to therapy and dsm diagnosis and a bunch of different medications and you can be doing all the#right things and still be a trainwreck!!!#putting in the work doesn't mean you're gonna become perfect and never have problem again any more than falling in love doesn't mean you'll#never have problems again#I'll forever be crying on my knees levels of grateful for the unique writing on this show#for saying that it's okay you can be a mess you can take one step forward and three steps back and you'll still always be deserving#of love and grace and forgiveness#you don't have to do anything to deserve you deserve it just because you exist#i love this show with my entire heart#alex watches ofmd

it’s so hard for me to imagine alucard in a modern au . . . like what in the world is he doing in the city?!
#that distinguished man has no business in the 21st century#the lack of manners would eat him alive#like yeah he has a mouth on him and can dish shit back but#adri can only do that for so long before wondering if the world’s truly gone to shit#technically a modern version of alucard exists . . .#genya arikado is right in front of me but im not feeling him lol . he seems like a completely different person#who STILL looks far too old fashioned to be living in 2040 whatever time#idk i just . . . i’ve been thinking of writing him in a modern setting but i just can’t wrap my head around that#you mean this man would be going to shake shack? driving cars? using a credit card instead of ducat coins?!?!!!#no way . that man belongs in the 1400s for sure lol#wow i really ended up running my mouth 😭 anyway i love that man just as he is!#꒰ঌ rambles.ᐟ ໒꒱#ৎ୭ ⨾ alucard.ᐟ#꒰ঌ castlevania.ᐟ ໒꒱#alucard#adrian tepes#adrian fahrenheit tepes#alucard castlevania#castlevania netflix#castlevania#alucard tepes

I've been having arguments in my head for days trying to figure out what I can say to my parents (specifically my mom because I think my dad is just a lost cause at this point) to get them to understand that
• being homophobic to any gay people is being homophobic to me and my sibling (they know I'm bisexual, they dont know my sibling is)
• that voting against lgbtq people as a whole, even transphobic legislation (they DONT know I'm nonbinary) will legitimately harm me and my sibling.
• that voting for Donald Trump could possibly be a death sentence for us if it gets bad enough.
• that no, Donald Trump is NOT the "most lgbtq friendly president there is" (my mom thinks that 😞)
• that even if they don't agree with it or don't like it, queer people, specially queer kids exist and they shouldn't take away life saving care for them.
But I've realized it's pointless. They will never care about me and my sibling more than they care about holding on to their ideologies and donald trump.
And what's sad is that... it isn't their choice. It is so hard, and yes they chose this in a way, but they are so completely brainwashed by conservative propaganda that there's almost no way for them to claw their ways out of it. They don't believe there is any media/news sources/experts that can be believed, that it is all pushing an agenda. They live in so much fear that is being used to control their vote to maintain right wing power.
It's so sad because they think its noble, they believe it's righteous, and in reality they are pushing away my sibling (I am stuck here) and harming us with their vote. That it's a massive domino effect and they can't see it. I've been trying for years to open my mom's mind but I fawn every time. I freeze up and don't have the skills to verbalize why they should care.
Because they THINK they do.
They have no idea.
And there's nothing I can do about it. I just have to live with the knowledge of what they are willing to do to me through their vote and their beliefs.
#lou's life#living with conservatives in the 21st century#i just want them to love me#all of me#and fight for me#even the parts they dont know about#i really needed to get this off my chest

#i love living in the 21st century bc i cwn just make memes to cope#but it's soooo stupid like . yeah. i'm turning 20 soon. and i feel like i have no actual close interpersonal relationship#i'm not my favourite people's favourite person#i feel like. it's stupid to say i'm unwanted bc i'm sure i'm not#logically i know some people like me. but i feel like. there's nobody who would choose me as their first choice#and i feel like it's bc there's smth inherently wrong with me#but i guess that's what it's like#idk least i can do is recognise how i feel and recognise that me thinking ''i would do anything to feel wanted by somebody'' can put#me in harm's way. i can't just Not think that bc i really truly would. but i can at least recognise it and use that self-awareness to#like... i dunno keep myself safe i suppose

Man.
#it's the else day of my tmbg album a day challenge which plunged me right back into my previous the else fixation state of mind#the grip this album had on me for the first few months of 2023 is truly something#but goddamn even now i'm just still shocked by how good this album is!!!!!!#and to think that it's often put in the category of their 00s 'slump' period (meanwhile i absolutely love the other 00s albums#and find them just as fun and interesting and clever etc as anything else but thats a whole different topic)#and even speaking less from personal preference towards this type of music and more generally#it's got to be one of their most sonically consistent albums. and maybe the fact#that some songs might be considered a bit less distinctly theirs you know. but more like just your regular rock songs. maybe. more 'normal'.#could be its weakness that i don't really see *as* a weakness here. i think a big part of the draw of this album for me#is how it has this completely separate identity from their other albums (even just other 21st century stuff)#it's 'edgier' but not really dark. ofc there's also the political side of it that weights on the mood of the whole thing#but all the while it has this sort of whimsical atmosphere that makes it even sort of fairytaleish in a way#but maybe with a dark twist? BUT ofc still doing it all in the tmbg way. so it's very unique!!!! and also absolutely awesome and rocking!!!#petition for the band to bring withered hope back into their live repertoire. or anything besides the mesopotamians PLEEEEASE!!#it would be so awesome with the horns....#very not completely normal about this album still. awesome#anyway it's midnight currently and i have to get up sort of early so i'm shutting up now#goosepost#Spotify

listen valvert is a better exploration of les mis’s themes than enjoltaire could ever be
#swinging at the hornet’s nest here but it’s true#redemption and forgiveness???#mercy vs justice???#like valjean and javert are literal embodiments of the work’s central questions#so in asking how these two people could come to love each other you must needs confront these questions head on#with the same grace as the original narrative#enjoltaire just have some dense political metaphors packed into their relationship and characterization#but they’re often taken out of the original context because in the 21st century their intensely specific symbolism just isn’t as relevant#les miserables is a transcendent work and valvert are transcendent#maybe im just pissed off because like 90% of the fandom attention goes to the amis when valvert is. right there???#and i used to be one of y’all but#anyways 🥰#and like i get it fighting for a new dawn is compelling or whatever sure#but self sacrifice i think is given more credit than it deserves when the real profundity to me is the human drive to live#like okay#giving yourself up for something greater than yourself???#whatever#played out as all hell#choosing life in spite of all its hardships#choosing life as the only way you can experience love or growth?#self sacrifice is too glorified#show me learning the value of the self and then we can talk

the fact that disney actually made me care about a disney princess romance through a live action movie is WILD
#like i love disney princess movies but im neutral on most of the couples especially pre 21st century ones#and most of the live actions even if i like them didn’t make me care for a romance that i already didn’t have any feelings about#UNTIL NOW#like yeah ariel x eric i get it now i get it#rey actually speaks#little mermaid spoilers#live action little mermaid#aro#<i mean just feel like this is an aro post#romance cw

He was just a mediocre musician from a wealthy family. I put up with him for a while because I thought maybe he was pointing to some dark truth about myself, and I suppose he was. I was a fool to be with a man like him. I was a fool about men in general. I learned the long way about love, tried every house on the block before I got it right. Now, finally, I live alone. Eileen by Ottessa Moshfegh

Dear me
Just stop, it will go nowhere, at this point you have given him every thing, every words, every confirmation.
If he doesn't value you, he has to go
#this is becoming a rant blog at this point#the horrifying reality of loving men in 21st century#why am I straight#Why I have to love him#Why is he fucking lives in other city#again the chilling realization that it is also going to die out#And I will see your picture with someone else in facebook and probably like it#and life will go on despite the ache in my heart
