I also resent that person’s implication that I am either genocidal or self centered or overly sentimental.
I have repeatedly advocated for peace.
I have repeatedly tried to meet people where they are and to share resources to help Palestinians and to demonstrate interfaith solidarity.
I have contextualized fear of antisemitic violence in statistics and cultural context and avoided laying blame on any one group of people.
But I guess I’m fundamentally invalid because I’ve used the jumblr tag to find a shred of fucking community.
#jumblr#I’m genuinely very unhappy#it’s so dismissive#and it’s worse that a fellow Jewish person is out there convincing people that kind of behavior is ok#I know we disagree as a people#but damn#that one legit hurts#I put myself out there repeatedly#I have endless patience for people who stumble#and I am scared#I can’t imagine ever talking to or about someone like that#especially not when I know they’re hurting#it is so hurtful it is actually unfathomable to me#and you may say#they don’t even know you#or they weren’t posting about you#but that’s the point#they don’t know me#but they were posting about me#that generalization included me#and dismissed my pain#and I resent it

About A Shoulder To Cry On
I do not support bullying nor SA. That should go without saying but this drama being problematic because of the way it began, i just wanted to make everything crystal-clear. I don’t wish to support a series that doesn’t dwell on the seriousness of these topics. But, as I’ve said in the tags of a gif set I reblogged, I am still watching it for its representation of depression. I don’t want people feeling uncomfortable with me reblogging content from A Shoulder To Cry On so do filter the related tags so it doesn’t show up on your dashboard. I completely understand people who want to boycott or skip the drama. This is a completely valid thing to do. But please understand that me watching it does not mean I agree with everything that’s being done. I know that giving it views encourages that type of production but so many people worked on that drama. Jaehan and Yechan to begin with and I want them to find comfort in the fact that their drama is being watched and enjoyed. This is a complicated situation and there is no right answer. I just wish people would qualify their judgements because some people might need this type of representation (of mental illness I mean).
#a shoulder to cry on#disclaimer#I debated a lo whether I should start posting or reblogging content from this drama#lot*#but at the end of the day this is my blog and however lovely the people on this site are#they don’t know me#If they want to judge me for watching this drama they can go ahead but things are not as simple as they may appear at first glance#*What's on Liz's mind#*astco: random thoughts

People against piracy fail to realize that no, I can’t just ‘buy it.’ They stopped making DVDs and Blu-Rays. They’re barely offering digital copies for download. I am not spending money I could use for food or bills to pay for a subscription service just so I can always have access to a beloved piece of media. Especially not when the service will remove media on a whim without concern for how the loss of access to that piece will make its artistic conservation nigh impossible.
For example, I recently learned that Disney+ had an original film called Crater. It’s scifi, family friendly, and seems cool - I would love to buy it as a holiday gift for my little brother! But: it’s exclusive to D+ and THEY REMOVED IT LITERALLY MONTHS AFTER ITS RELEASE.
The ONLY way I can directly access this film is through piracy. The ONLY available ‘copies’ of this film are hosted on piracy websites. Disney will NEVER release it in theaters, or as something to buy, and it may NEVER return to the streaming service. It will be LOST because we aren’t allowed to purchase it for personal viewing. If I can’t pay to own it, I won’t pay for the privilege of losing it when corporate decides to put it in a vault.
So yes, I’m going to pirate and support piracy.
Edit: if you are able, use $5 you would otherwise use for a streaming subscription to donate to a GazaFunds campaign.
#edit: go to https://gazafunds.org/ and donate $5 you would otherwise spend on streaming services on a campaign!#ra speaks#piracy#media piracy#pirate to make hondo ohnaka proud#obligatory ‘don’t fucking pirate small authors/artists works wtf dude’ statement.#anyone who’s seen my media bitching before knows I’m a hype man for indie films this ain’t about them#this is about corporate streaming services killing physical media bc sales numbers are less impressive than number of streams#edit: USAmericans stop telling me to buy DVDs and blurays at Walmart. think outside your borders for a hot sec. fun thought exercise.#your experiences are not universal#edit: WHO GOT THIS TO 100k. I JUST WANT TO TALK (this post is my second to hit 100k woahg.)#in other news: fix your fucking posture. drink some fucking water. and go the fuck to bed if it’s late bc it’s for me rn. peace and light.

5 years ago, I was in Rehab.
10 years ago, I was watching my Potential and Opportunities dissolve and evaporate in an ocean of cheap gin and expensive whiskey.
But 5 years ago, I was in Rehab.
One of the exercises they had us perform was to imagine ourselves happy, 5 years in the future.
Many of us in that room had forgotten how to imagine nice things happening to them. A few snorted (well, I snorted), finding the notion that we’d even still be around in 5 years grimly humorous.
For about half of us, it was the last stop on the way down.
But I indulged the therapist. I was there, after all, because I did not want to die. So, I imagined myself, 5 years hence.
Happy.
It came to me all at once; an artistic remix on Norman Rockwell’s Freedom From Want, reframed with myself placing food at the table.
Sunday Dinner At My Place, I answered, when it came my turn to share my fantasy. I was asked what food I imagined eating.
It’s not the meal itself, I said, it’s the implications framed around it. Sunday Dinner At My Place means that I have a Place. It means that I have Family that will actually speak to me and friends who actually want to see me. It means money enough not just to feed myself but others too. It means having the time to spare to take the time preparing the meal.
A lot of nodding heads all around me. A struck chord. Many people with no Place, in that place. Nowhere that would lament their leaving.
5 years hence, as I lay down to sleep in my Home, with my Wife and my Son, surrounded by my Art and my Flowers, I reflect.
It was a long road. It was hard. We lost people. So many people. There were long days and long nights and hospital stays. Angry arguments with ghosts. I changed, in ways I never hoped for, or expected. Good ways, finally, for once. Slowly, against the backdrop of a world in chaos, I found my mind.
Sometimes, My Wife wondered aloud, what she did to deserve me. After some stumbling with my feelings, I eventually settled on an answer.
I’m a Rescue.
She gave me a Home.
And, so, I gave her a Family.
It seemed fair
This Sunday, my folks, which whom I have not had a shouting match in years, will come over for dinner. We will cook and eat together. My Friend became My Wife, and she took a piece of me and with it she made Our Son. There will be many hugs, and no violence. Good Things Happened.
I don’t know who needs to hear this, but you don’t know what the future holds.
don’t give up yet, ok?
It could get good, even.
#troglodyte thoughts#tales from Real Life#cw addiction#cw alcohol#sometimes the light at the end of the tunnel is the headlamp of an approaching train#run#fight#hide#SURVIVE#do not go into the light#there are unpet dogs#and unhugged children#and unseen sunsets#and maybe even love#even for a wretch like me#the best part of your life might be old age#you don’t know

i say i like tragedies and everyone’s all like ‘why do you like sad stories? are you depressed?’ and never ‘how was the catharsis? was the catharsis fun?’
#i don’t know how to explain this to normal people 😭😭#for the record my coworkers didn’t directly question me on this#but i think i have vastly overestimated the amount of the population who is aware of like. Films.#NOT claiming that i have seen a lot - but i’ve mentioned three *REALLY* well-known films in the past four days#and got blank stares each time#the one of them was a REALLY good reference too… someday my top-notch association skills will be recognized#my first act as Mansion Acquaintance of the [redacted] Director will be to force everyone to watch a 40s romcom i didn’t even like#i’m getting off the point#the POINT is that It’s About The Catharsis

(vent post)
okay but how are you supposed to get good rec letters when you graduated several years ago + were mostly incapable of building memorable relationships with your professors bc your untreated mental health issues left you barely capable of even showing up to class and doing the bare minimum to get a grade
am I just fucked forever
#456 words#it’s just. very frustrating#bc I have the skill set and attitude to go to grad school#i have at least one person who can say it and give it weight#but I need three Good Strong letters esp about like. my actual undergraduate background and I just. don’t have people to ask#the only prof I really have a relationship w is a lit prof who retired#and I’d ask her again but like. it wasn’t good enough last year I guess bc she’s not in the same subject#and also doesn’t have an official looking email anymore#i finally worked up the nerve to ask more people bc maybe I was underestimating#how much they would remember me or like me#but so far it seems my assumptions were correct#they don’t know me#not well enough to write anything that means anything#I could ask people willing to like. type out whatever but that’s meaningless#I just wasn’t enough of a person when I needed to be and now I feel like it’s too late#do I go back to campus and try to cram 5+ years of relationship forming into a couple months?#that feels disingenuous and rude. idk#maybe it’s normal but I dunno I don’t want to be that student#but like. the other option is just. being fucked#bc I couldn’t do what I needed to when I had the chance#and I really fucking hope that isn’t true but it certainly feels like it#vent

I’ve been obsessed with the Olympics for the past week, and obsessed with Dick Grayson for longer, so here’s the crossover we all deserve.
Plus, gorgeous sweaty acrobat in gymnastics poses? Only positives.
#I know Bludhaven’s not a country don’t come at me#i wanted him in Nightwing colours#this was a compromise#plus look how pretty he looks#you can’t blame me#he looks good in blue and black what can I say#so good#someone help me I’m so bisexual#acrobat dick grayson#dick grayson fanart#dick grayson#nightwing fanart#nightwing#dc robin#olympics#olympics 2024#dc x Olympics#because we all know Dick would kill it at the Olympics if he wanted to#how many jobs has that man had#gold medal at the Olympics is just one more on the list

just out of curiosity bc some people I know with glasses can just go a few hours or a day without them and be chill but I need them on all the time or I’ll go crazy
#I know this is just purely dependant on how disabled you are but like. making polls is fun#personally I don’t consider myself super badly nearsighted but like. if anything is literally more than a foot away from me it blurs#so going around without them would suck ass and probably give me a headache#sunny polls
