#maybe I’m just sensitive???

[lightningandfireinmybones]

don’t get me wrong I love getting feedback on my work,,, good or critical it makes me a better writer,,, but like,,, I am sensitive and taking the time to write a comment saying you don’t like it and hate the way it’s gone is,,, really something

[golfishwiththebigeyes]

it will likely surprise zero of you that I also wasn’t a fan of the post-Shido scene.

Didn’t really fuck with the girl who watched her best friend attempt suicide reacting with more anger than relief that her other very dear friend didn’t actually die in an act of self-sacrifice, ill-timed joke aside

lol just saw a lesbian nsft blog that has “men dni” on every single post and yet their pinned post says, “this doesnt include trans men, since that isn’t clear for some reason” like hello????

I just had a really weird experience.

I mean, not that weird, because it’s common. But it took me by surprise and made me feel like shit when I thought things were gonna be neutral.

I had a meeting/event today at school for my department and my research lab was joining so I went along. I knew at least 10+ people in the room and sat with my lab members and yet… no one spoke to me. No one looked at me. Professors, students, everyone was connecting with each other, sitting in ways that included each other, whatever. But not one person connected with me.

It was also weird because as I sat down I was distinctly aware that I was the only black person in the room. One of two non white people, but the only very visibly radicalized person and a woman at that. And I feel like I was highly visible and yet invisible. My blackness felt like a spotlight on me, the vibe in the room was that I didn’t belong, and it felt like I was being purposefully excluded.

People I was friendly with didn’t look at me, people I know well and had just spoken to the day before pretended I wasn’t there. When I tried speaking to someone, at the first lul in conversation he turned away from me to speak to a white person beside me.

I knew that this was going to be a big issue especially considering my chosen academic field, but damn if it doesn’t feel shitty to be in the middle of it. And with academia, personal connections matter almost as much as your mind so I now feel like I’ve got an even steeper uphill battle to make it far in my field or even be recognized or allowed in than I thought before. Maybe I’m catastrophizing but now I feel like I have to be the smartest person in the room for the rest of my life so that value forces people to let me in. Which is fine, I can do that. But I didn’t want to have to.

Idk, feeling really alienated and discouraged. I know this is par for the course in predominantly white space, and especially academia, but it still stings when it happens.

That feel when you’re about to reblog a fan art of a character or ship, but then you notice the caption describes them in a way you don’t agree with, so you just go ‘nevermind’…

Pedro saying nothing about Mando’s anniversary yesterday and then posting 4 times about other stuff on his story this morning… ily sir but I am tweaking out just a little bit

[fleabagdiaz]

NO I WILL NOT zip my lips. it’s actually sossoosooso crazy that tommy calls buck evan. like. that’s not his name!!!! the people who know him call him BUCK. this is not even subtext it is TEXT. and I will never find it cute that tommy does it. I have never even found it cute when eddie does it in fics!!!! because it’s NOT his name!!! it is representative of a person to whom he no longer feels a strong connection, it is a name to which he no longer feels a strong connection. because everyone in his life that loves him calls him buck. and it’s actually kind of fucked up to me that he’s like having this journey of queer self-discovery or whatever. and it’s tied to this guy that insists on calling him by a different name than every other important person in his life. like is that not weird to. certain individuals. ? his first queer relationship being dissociated from the name that he has said people who know him call him? like it’s sequestered from the rest of him, rather than being a part of the whole person that he is??? I don’t like it!!!!!! at allllllll!!!!!!!!

[mushroominaforest]

God, what an asshole just said that. This is too much. If I were around, I would obviously start arguing with this person and saying how rotten he is

And that's putting it mildly

Okay, I would just throw this man out the window, and I would suggest that you come with me and buy chocolate or other delicious things

Don't listen to such sneering people. So go and do, do whatever they said the other way around. Don't let such people say that you won't achieve something. To be honest, I myself began to be interested in mushrooms. They're not flowers, but dude, they're so cool, and they're just as beautiful.

(I probably said something stupid. I'm sorry)

I can’t find the right words to say thank you, this is making me cry it’s so sweet.

there’s more I want to say but I just… thank you. Thank you so much

[ghst-boys]

i want to know why people talk big talk about not criticizing fic like it’s published fic and it’s not polite to publically shit talk fics because we’re all just doing this for free and for fun… until it comes to atyd. like i have fics i don’t like but i would never be out here in public being like “i hate this fic i hate this characterization” so why tf is atyd different

Ariana: Don’t comment on my body, do not reply.

everyone: she looks so skinny and unhealthy it’s making me wanna starve myself

[ihhfhonao3]

I hope this isn’t… weird? To say? And I hope I don’t sound like I’m obsessed, but I feel like there’s kinda been a lotta unrelated posts in the klapollo tags lately?

I wanna preface this by saying that they’re my comfort ship- so if I come off assertive or hypersensitive or angry, I don’t mean to be, they just mean a whole lot to me. Neurodivergent fixation, I think you all know the drill

I just feel like I’ve seen a lot of stuff in the tags lately that’s been like. Stuff that’s just BARELY them- so like, a singular tiny mention of them in a post all about narumitsu for example, and then saying “I’ll do an analysis on klapollo next week!” at the end, for me it’s like. I dunno. Tag that post as narumitsu and THEN tag your klapollo analysis post as klapollo! And of course, people can have their own opinions on the ship! You are free to like and dislike what you wish! But I always kinda thought it was rule of thumb to not tag something as a certain ship if you’re talking about how you don’t like that ship.

I REALLY am not trying to be a fanpol or a fancop here- and I promise im not writing this as a “callout” or to be like “omg everyone in these tags is stupid and lame,” I truly love seeing all the different people posting in the tags, as well as reading other’s opinions and takes on the ship! Cuz like I said, the ship matters a whole lot to me, so seeing new content for it daily makes me happy. But I personally feel like the tag has strayed a little ways from the original usage of such.

again, this is probably just me- I’m really fixated on them so I’m probably the only one who notices this lol. In the grand scheme of things, it’s not that big of a deal, but I wanted to bring it up :3

I had very ambitious plans about being productive today and even went to bed early but I woke up to an AO3 comment telling me I got something wrong so I’ve been in bed for 2 hours thinking about deleting my AO3 page before anyone else finds more mistakes 🙃

[lesbiankittie]

does a show ever fuck you up so badly that you feel physically ill and immediately dream of a different ending afterwards

[iwritenarrativesandstuff]

I was just mentioning this in a comment earlier but I think the Fyodor ability semi-reveal actually did have enough hinting in his former appearances - you can actually somewhat piece it together in hindsight so I’m fine with that. I’m actually quite intrigued about where we go from here.

However, it comes on the tail end of an arc where most everyone was apparently acting, drastically reducing the stakes overall. If everyone had legitimately been in mortal danger but they nabbed Fyodor at the end just barely, it would’ve been like ripping the rug out from under us when it’s revealed that he literally can’t be killed - rendering it all pointless still, but in a really cool, gut-punch awesome way.

What I’m actually annoyed about is still, and always will be, the way Fyodor and Chuuya apparently got out of the flooded room. That was stupid as hell and I stand by that.

do you think that al-an adjusts his internal temperature while cuddling robin to fit her wants so he can extend the cuddle sesh… robin starting to get sick of being too hot in the cuddle? lowering core temperature to compensate. cuddling extended by 50%. she will never be allowed to turn away during sleepy cuddles.

i am once again disappointed but not surprised at the COD fandom only caring about “sensitivity” when it’s convenient for them
