#we were each other's safety

I showed my roommate the super old videos of my friends and I from high school that are still on YouTube. I've been In My Feels since last night.

having a normal one watching Bdubs lim life tonight and thinking about how when Bdubs betrayed Tango in last life, Skizz told Tango that for the sake of team best he had to go and forgive him.

But when Bdubs boogey kills Skizz in lim life before team ties is even really formed, Skizz is allowed to have it out for Bdubs for almost the entire first half of the season, even when the clockers ally with them and it would've been easier to let sleeping dogs lie.

Tango, the perpetually extraneous and undervalued member of his alliances...the too often shoved aside and betrayed...being told it was his duty to the team to forgive bdubs and move on....

But no one—especially not Tango—tried to tell Skizz to let it go.

Darrow going after sevro despite the fact that he knows it’s most likely a suicide mission…sevro staying in the vents despite the fact that he could steal a ship and save himself because he knows Darrow will come for him and he can’t let him walk into that trap…

God I fucking love mixed weapon fighting so much, just being able to go at it with the thing you're most comfortable with against someone else using the thing they're most comfortable with is so cool and awesome, coming up with strategies to a weapon set you don't use and testing them against someone doing the same, it's so rad tbh

Makes me sad that so many places I've fought in regard it as like, an afterthought at best

anyway i was gonna make a big long post about this but its 1:30am and im tired lmao. so has anyone noticed the insane similarities between all this anti-transmasc stuff and the entire aspec exclusionist movement or is that just me on my aroace trans dude shit

like. i dunno. the misconstruing of the concepts of transandromisia and aphobia in general being made out to “oppress other identities”, or just the downplaying / dismissal of our group-specific issues altogether, or insisting that these specific issues are just the results of some broader, equally shitty concept, or saying that we have “privilege” comparable to majority groups (cis men, straight people) despite being excluded / ridiculed / persecuted by those same groups, or the fact that when we talk about these issues were reduced to like “whiny little white teenage uwu tumblr blogger” instead of taken seriously, or that while real people in our communities are getting hurt or killed people are focusing on whether the terms we use are #unproblematic enough instead

idk is that just me? am i hallucinating or am i experiencing the 2018 exclusionist movement all over again except make it #trans

something that really sucks about prolonged loneliness is feeling so desperate for emotional intimacy and then also so closed off to it because you're used to the isolation. it's an exhausting circular pattern and i hate it.

I openly use it/its alongside they/he in a queer org i help run irl. Since i figure if im open abt that other people will be less nervous abt asking people to use it/its or neopronouns and shit like that. And i wasnt really expecting people to use it for me, since lotsa people arent comfortable w that and i had other options. And let me tell ya how cool it is to see a newer member show up and just go ‘oh im like you, i use he/it!” And see one of my fellow exec, in a message where she had exactly one pronoun referring to me, use it. Its so fucking nice, let me tell you, i love being Vocally Queer :]

I know the Land of Wa gate is positively glutted with transients, but still, where's my babygirl Kajiwara Kagetoki?

"Defected from the Taira" Kagetoki. "Got jealous over and offended by a dude nearly twenty years his junior" Kagetoki. "Slandered his lord's younger brother to death" Kagetoki. "His lord's mind-reader and mouthpiece and right hand man and most trusted adviser" Kagetoki. "Was slandered to death in turn after Yoritomo dies" Kagetoki.

I think Yoritomo's 5-star Research File vaguely alludes to him (? see below, emphasis mine), but neither Yoritomo nor Oniwaka mention him so he probably doesn't exist in Housamo lore. But what if he did! Imagine the antics and hilarity they could get up to! (And the angst too but I think the antics would be funnier.) LW where's my lore!!!

"Doesn't get along well with those who have a wild disposition or are prone to deep jealousy [...]"

I'm in so much pain it's embarrassing. I'm going to look back on these memories of me writhing alone too afraid to sleep biting my knuckles crying about nothing and laugh.

the way some shops and restaurants have completely unsafed themselves to go back to their pre-covid no protections no masking no hand sani Just Back To Previously Like It Never Happened when like. It was such a blessing that we'd taken steps towards a more fucking sanitary environment.

Sad but true…

I cant believe in like the big consumer eletronics show we have gone from "here is a household item that will genuinely help people stay more organized and make their lives easier" to "heres a fucking ball we put a bunch of ai into that will follow you around and get stuck in dog shit. We hope you die buy our ai ball."

Hey, lawmakers and politicians. I should not have to determine which objects in a classroom would work best to beat someone’s ass with. I should not even have to THINK about going up against someone who potentially has an AK-47 with a metal trash can. Thank you very much and I wish you a merry “restrict gun ownership and if you disagree I hope you get shot.”

At least even when I was a teenager and identified as communist, I was still never a soviet apologist

(And as I got older I came to dislike the USSR more and more and more, also seeing that soviet apologism kinda tended to fuck things up for western communists cause they'd be so busy running defense for people who didn't like or care about them, that actually getting policies passed to help western workers came second to being a tankie)

(Straight up, while I was volunteering in Quebec, one of the people I stayed with had this book by her uncle about being a Canadian communist, and he basically pinned soviet apologism as the whole reason he left the party cause they were more interested is doing PR for the kremlin than they were interested in like... unionizing in Canada)

Anyway, tankies suck, soviet apologism suck, and I'm glad to be able to say that even when I was a communist I didn't fall into that trap... like thank fuck for that, you know?
