You don't wish your disability was worse or more visible, you wish your disability was taken seriously. Please stop confusing the two, I guarantee you would not get the support you need JUST by being more severe or more visible. Please listen to visibly disabled people when we tell you it isn't better on our side

since Eng is getting 7.5 soon(?), I felt motivated to go back to my Meleanor rig and make her a couple of lesson animations! ...except for alchemy, because the cauldron bubbles proved too hard to photoshop around, whoops.

maybe she just got lost on her way to the classroom...?

(credit: backgrounds are from the game, I just put her on top of 'em)

(aside from the backgrounds, this is not an edit, I drew her from scratch! please do not tag or treat as an edit!)

I don't like this place. It's turning everyone edgy and sad.

love when men cry about body hair bc "it's hygiene" and yet 15% of cis men leave the bathroom without washing their hands at all and an additional 35% only just wet their hands without using soap. that is nearly half of all men. that means statistically you have probably shaken hands with or been in direct contact with one of these people.

love when men say that women "only want money" when it turns out that even in equal-earning homes, women are actually adding caregiver burdens and housework from previous years, whereas men have been expanding leisure time and hobbies. in equal-earning households, men spend an average of 3.5 hours extra in leisure time per week, which is 182 hours per year - a little over a week of paid vacation time that the other partner does not receive. kinda sounds like he wants her money.

love that men have decided women are frail and weak and annoying when we scream in surprise but it turns out it's actually women who are more reliable in an emergency because men need to be convinced to actually take action and respond to the threat. like, actually, for-real: men experience such a strong sense of pride about their pre-supposed abilities that it gets them and their families killed. they are so used to dismissing women that it literally kills them.

love it. told my father this and he said there's lies, damned lies, and statistics. a year ago i tried to get him to evacuate the house during a flash flood. he ignored me and got injured. he has told me, laughing, that he never washes his hands. he has said in the last week that women are just happier when we're cooking or cleaning.

maybe i'm overly nostalgic. but it didn't used to feel so fucking bleak. it used to feel like at least a little shameful to consider women to be sheep. it just feels like the earth is round and we are still having conversations about it being flat - except these conversations are about the most obvious forms of patriarchy. like, we know about this stuff. we've known since well before the 50's.

recently andrew tate tried to justify cheating on his partner as being the "male prerogative." i don't know what the prerogative for the rest of us would be. just sitting at home, watching the slow erosion of our humanity.

I ended up really liking what Hoyo have done with Emilie.

Her drip marketing was boring, but the trailers... She suddenly has a surprisingly accurate perfumer vibe! The autistic voice! The weird metaphors. The way her inspiration works. All the people-watching.

The search for new components (Wenut fat line xD)

They really have talked to an actual perfumer before making her and now I wonder who they interviewed.

(also after the previous trailer people commented how most perfumes are not water-based and her tangent about water felt out of place, but it's relevant too! you need good water to distill oils and in some cases like artisanal agarwood oil picking a specific water source is part of the craft)

Also quite a lot of perfumers have a detective streak. You end up keeping all sorts of secrets about people if you talk to your clientele enough.

There was a guy who took all the girls he tried to charm to one of my colleagues, she was part of his girl-charming protocol. An incense master might notice someone switching esoteric traditions based on the type of materials they order. And we all see friend circles drifting apart over conflicts and reassembling again. Once a woman who everyone considers sociopathic ordered a bottle from my very expensive line and asked to deliver it to her friend with a comment that it's from a secret admirer (merely to cheer her friend up).

You see a lot of stories like these over the years and the better and more weird you are the more social groups you are let into. And I don't mean being invited to parties, I mean backstage and personal stories and gritty details.

So a perfumer detective/forensic expert makes so much sense. She's living the dream.

(for people who don't know me: I used to have a perfumery hobby and even made a living with it for a few years. I feel represented)

It feels illegal to have Doctor Who be this high budget. I’m not complaining, it’s just so strange it’ll take some getting used to lol
