#or to be told why I'm 'wrong'

[thedreadvampy]

Losing my shit about this article in which a transphobic Tory was so busy panicking about existing in the vicinity of a Trans that she almost certainly misheard "jeans" as "penis" and decided that not only was this a problem with the other woman, but also that the world must be informed of this pressing danger.

"a trans woman! I had to stand directly behind her....I thought, 'this is going well', I'm handling The Situation fine'..."

translated: I saw a tall woman with broad shoulders. How would I get out of this alive? I thought. she has a PENIS. PENIS PENIS PENIS. through some force of PENIS I mean will I managed to PENIS behave normally towards her. My hands were PENIS PENIS PENIS shaking as I tried to dry them. summoning up all my PENIS courage I said 'dryer's crap innit'. she turned to me and said " yeah I'm just goiPENIS PENIS PENIS"

It's been a week and I'm still shaking. This proves trans women are the problem and I'm not weird. I'm fine. It's fine. If you think about it I'm the hero hePENIS!!!!!

it's kind of funny that we're back at the start, as it was known from the very beginning, as the story always was, the old lore: "the Divine Gate was built in response to the destruction and suffering of the Calamity as the Prime Deities realized was far too much and, as such, they needed to also remove themselves from Exandria to protect it from the ruin that the gods dwelling here brings"

He was about to kill you, Lex. Or divulge something you didn't want me to know.

My favourite thing to do: talk about Endeavor

My least favourite thing to do: explain why I like Endeavor

it's like. louis attempted to tell this story to daniel the first time, broke down, and attacked him before he could finish it.

and then decades later he's convinced himself that it was leaving the story unresolved that's holding him back from living his life fully now. so he invites daniel back again. and louis is sitting poised and put together, confident in his ability to recite his history in a pretty, poignant, neat little narrative that will resolve all the guilt and yearning and emptiness inside of him. that if he can just tell a compelling, satisfying story, maybe it will actually be that, and not the life he lived through, with all the pitfalls of his own failures lurking inside.

and then season 1 ends with him once again being forced to confront that the story he wants to imagine and the life he actually lived aren't the same thing. the boundaries around his narrative are shredded and he's left exposed, and subsequently able to face his past for the first time since that original interview. and you think, you think, "well this is it. they've crossed the event horizon. there's no use hiding the truth anymore, not after it's come flooding out into the open like this"

and then season 2 opens. not only is it back to the original, practiced distance, we now have armand literally enforcing that distance. a man sitting at the table who's interjections must be disregarded, an intentional interruption to the flow of the story. he doesn't exist to aid or add detail, he exists to distract louis when he gets too deep in the story. the only time we do get louis allowing any deep truth to come out is when armand leaves the room.

it's like. louis wants a story that's true, and the truth is what he's convinced will leave him satisfied. armand wants a story that will satisfy louis, to the extent louis will accept it's true.

Just finished Act 2 and Jayce destroying Viktor's cult/community at the very end reminded me a lot of Jinx destroying the Council in S1 for some reason - although I haven't collected my thoughts fully yet.

Are the Wild Runes that Jayce has been trapped with having similar effects to Jayce and his hammer that Shimmer had to Jinx?

(although arguably only his weapon really got a buff, meanwhile he got the worse end of the stick)

(Also some Jayce rambling in the tags cause, whilst I was pretty neutral on him before S2, he's quickly become one of my favourites v)

I think it's pretty gross that wolfertinger666/puppychan/pupkittyfan1/fungfurevvv/imafraidofgh0st is at the top of the fursona tag

I seriously think that he put a LOT of minors in danger on twitter and was SUPER racist and has never actually said sorry for it

I've left him unblocked for a while now to warn the people that I follow when they reblog his stuff, but I just can't bear seeing his shit anymore

Fuck I hate being an adult. I need a more adult adult to help with the volatile emotional situation.

Hey Petty. How's the pride watch going, fam? How we feeling about them magic swords et al?

Um, I'm a summer baby, so once my skin feels sun, the streets start calling and I forget how to act, which means . . .

I'm still on episode eleven of The Untamed.

But listen, Linda, listen, escúchame. Fuddy Duddy left in the middle of the night, all hell broke loose, shit went down in the Cloud Cult, then HE IGNORED MY BOY, so I'm too upset to continue! Like I understand the vibes are in hell (literally since they were forced to go to the Fire Nation), but at least he could acknowledge my boy since HE IS IN LOVE WITH HIM!

I have drag brunch today then pride on the pitch, so I'm going to watch Wandee Goodday, go day drinking, squeeze in another episode of The Untamed while the alcohol is in my system, so I won't be too upset at Fuddy Duddy, go yell at men on a field to rid myself of some of the anger I feel toward this one fictional man, then recommit to finishing this show regardless of how mad I am at Fuddy Duddy.

Because Wuxian is the only one I respect in this house, so I am really mad at this man on his behalf (even though my boy could never be mad at his boyfriend).

Like really mad.

Ignore all logistical considerations of "would they ever meet each other under these circumstances". If you don't think Jules Bashir would have chosen to join Starfleet, imagine he is on the station for some other reason, or they meet in some other location.

I wanted to make this poll because I've seen various fics where Garak reassures Julian that far from being upset over him being augmented, Garak is grateful for it, either explicitly because (he thinks) they wouldn't be able to have their usual conversations if it weren't for the augmentations, or simply because he likes Julian "just the way he is" and wouldn't want him to be "different". I disagree that Garak would think like this (or at the very least, I think Julian would react negatively if he did, rather than be reassured), so I wanted to hear everyone else's thoughts.

one of my biggest writing problems is that i feel the need to explain what happens every second

I love how you can purposely cater you internet experience to block most politics so you can mentally detox since your media consumption was becoming unhealthy, and still have a whole week of attempting to regain your hope in humanity become completely undone by wanting to eat lunch with your mom (ramble in tags, feel free to ignore; take care of yourselves first <3)

"your father thinks it's all my fault, your sister thinks it's all my fault, you think it's all my fault" okay at a certain point you have to look inward and ask yourself "am i making life difficult for everyone around me?"
