I live on the ground floor, and my brother and sister in law live two floors up, so sometimes we drop in on each other for some reason or other.

Our building also has an elevator. I don't use it, because I don't like it. I hate it. It's small and cramped and there's weird noises even though it's brand new, and I am convinced it's poorly built.

I take the stairs. But the neighbors usually use the elevator, so if I happen to start heading upstairs at the same time that a neighbor comes into the building, I take great pleasure in climbing the stairs at the most geriatric pace possible and still beat them to my destination, especially if we're headed to the same floor.

Like, sometimes I reach the second floor so quickly that I have to deliberately slow down so they see me as they step out of the elevator and know that the weirdo with the creaky knees is faster going up two flights of stairs than they are using the untrustworthy moving box.

Is my rivalry with the elevator as an entity just a bit unhinged? Am I just making a very unnecessary power move? Yes.

I'm still faster than that fucker, though.

Today I learned that ppl with adhd are more likely to have allergies... and I'm very much obsessed with this now.

here's the thing. yes, some pieces of art are "better" than others. there are many criteria you can measure that with--technical skill, creativity, clarity, conceptual depth, successful execution of the artist's intentions, etc., and i do think it's useful to clarify which ones you're using as a measuring stick. but like, of course you can evaluate art. of course you can be critical (in the "art critic" sense) of art. (among other things, that's one of the most important ways to get better at making art yourself.)

however. when it comes down to evaluating what gets to count as art. what art even gets to have a seat at the table. i will go to bat for the thing that isn't as "good" every single time.

you can say you think a piece of art is bad. you can say you think it lacked technical skill, or clarity, or conceptual depth, and you consider those important elements of a successful work. i might even agree with you. but if you think that means it doesn't matter, someone is going to die on this hill and it isn't going to be me

need to develop more self control. have the tag and the spoilers tag blacklisted atm and i keep clicking that button cus im like weeeell maybe i can see a liiittle bit... and like i havent gleaned much but some things i truly should probably not remotely hear abt until ive actually played it

i wanna play it eventually but truthfully im not rly like. well 1. im nervous spending that much and 2. im kinda into other things rn and know if i play it thats a complete shift in interests as opposed to the relatively light interest change im in thats reversible enough for when the new ep comes out at minimum, and i still have too many things to do w that, and 3 is that i honestly just am not in the mood to play it quite yet. i know itll be good but its not smth i currently am in the mood to play

Friendly reminder that you need to wear gloves and a proper respirator mask when working with resin. They are not optional.

I hate when people over simplify or over memeify the culture of Asian Parents and tiger parenting - especially if they aren't Asian themselves. Its extremely normalized abuse and its not really a great look for non-AAPI to have a laugh over it tbh.

Especially in trauma and DID spaces, I feel its important for non-AAPI to be cognicient of just how non-optional it can be in presenting "stellar and perfect" inspite of being severely mentally ill and how deeply that will inherently play into the trauma and often how the system forms.

It's not to say all Asian households have it, or that all Asian households that have it push it to such a length, but its really not a haha-hehe typical Asian thing and it really isn't something to compare to non-AAPI culturally rooted trauma.

my personal stance on gay slurs is: i can call myself this, you can call yourself that, but if you call me that, that's when i'm going to have a problem.

[the-tenth-arcanum]

being italian online while not visibly black can get weird sometimes, people will assume you're white (understandable) and you'll do something innocuous like calling yourself an "expat" only to have someone go "expat? EXPAT?? oh so when foreigners come to OUR country they're immigrants but when we do it—! you're an immigrant. just say you're an immigrant" and I'm like, look I appreciate the spirit. but as the child of an immigrant who, at times, has been made to feel Other in my own native country, I would like to experience not feeling Other every once in a while you know? like I think that's a valid point you're making but you should redirect that energy somewhere else

One thing I hate is how some other traumatized ppl will like weaponise their trauma against ppl they're hurting bc they haven't grappled with the fact that just bc they've been hurt doesn't mean they can't hurt others.

Like trauma isn't a competition & everyone deals with it at a different pace. But at the same time, the amount of ppl who've used their triggers to silence me after they triggered me into a breakdown is fucking wild!

It's infuriating.
