Greetings!

i'm Tia, desperately trying to concoct a semblance of organizational skills.

it is really lovely of you though that you come to visit. The following links will, I like to think, give you a bird's eye view of subjects I am rather passionate about. And do drop in my asks! I love getting asks. Asks are cool.

i usually post doctor x river stuff but you'll find a smattering of other stuff here too. i love tumblr a LOT. it just hits different.

Some of my favorite shows are My Little Pony, Care Bears, Strawberry Shortcake, Ninjago, Aang: The Last Airbender, Sherlock, Once Upon A Time, and The Gentlemen. A few of my favorite movies are the Men in Black trilogy, Divergent, the Kingsmen, Princess Diaries, Maze Runner trilogy, the Curious Case of Benjamin Button, the Eagle, Encanto, Mona Lisa Smile, The Proposal, and Cruella (2021).

wow. now that i see it in a list, i guess i've always been a sci-fi and fantasy fan.

Yo. I'm going to be taking a little break from Tumblr.

I'm just not in a mentally good spot rn and I don't have the time or energy to be on this app right now.

Which sucks because I just started the writers supporting writers project.

I'll come back eventually, I'll probably be on Tumblr to check notifications, but that will be all. I'll have my queue running for this blog and find another person to give membership to the readingfoz account so it'd not just @seasealwaters

Okay so I just finished watching Outside Xtra's video on Madame Web (which I think I saw as a recommendation in tags by @a-commas-a-pause ?) and they quickly touched on the whole "is it okay to kill a child if you know that child will grow up to do horrific things?" and because I'm me, I have Thoughts™ and Opinions™ on that.

The version of this I've come across most often and I assume most other people have come across is "If you could, would you kill a baby who grows up to be Adolf Hitler?" , which

Anyway, I think this question - and other questions like it - is incredibly stupid and incredibly pointless.

Because the question either fundamentally misunderstands Nazi Germany or it's a badly worded question trying to get at the nature of punitive justice.

If it's the latter, you could just ask "is it ethical to punish someone for crimes they will commit in the future?" instead so presumably it's the former that is intended.

Which, the former is operating on the logic that removing Hitler from the equation would have just stopped Nazi Germany from happening, and the logic has no basis in reality. If it wasn't Hitler, it would have been someone else. It might have played out differently, but Hitler wasn't the sole reason that Nazis were able to take control of Germany.

This sort of question means to ask "Is it moral to kill a child to stop that child from committing atrocities in the future?"

And applying that questions to historical figures is almost entirely useless.

It is very rare that a monumental event in history occurred due to the efforts of a single individual; it's simply that the faces of these events are the ones whose names we remember.

As such, it is also very rare that you can trace a domino trail from said historical event to a singular point of origin. Hitler being rejected from art school is not the first in a domino train that ends in the Holocaust.

I think about this way more than I should realistically, but I just think the attitude we have really highlights the way we approach history, and the knock-on effects from that.

For one, it's incredibly individualistic; very Ayn Rand. It assumes that history is made not by the people, but by one singular person. It discourages working together toward a goal and encourages competition instead.

But it also betrays a level of complacency, in my opinion. As I've pointed out above, the idea of history hinging entirely on one man is a very flawed idea. In 99% of cases, it's not possible, and yet you are expected to believe otherwise. And so where do you begin an impossible task?

You don't. You think "I'm one person, I can't change the world" and so you give up, you become complacent, but you give up believing that some person can do it, just not you. And so any guilt or shame you're feeling can easily be pushed aside. It was okay that you did nothing because nothing you did would have amounted to anything because you're not The Chosen One.

It's easier to imagine history as lots of different domino trains running parallel to each other, and easier to imagine history as what Those Important People™ do while ordinary folks do nothing, because it allows you to be complacent.

And I guess that's the conclusion because all of this has just been written off the top of my head, and I actually have plans today that I need to prepare for.

Biden will lose this year because of his support of genocide. He is literally the only reason it is still happening, and that is transparent to the American people. You better find another candidate to back, now.

Distraction! Distraction! To Avoid Abstraction! sounds like a cheerleading cheer in cadence, and I literally can't read the title without thinking it in a peppy voice

Also, the neediness of both of them in the fic is just👌I love them so much I'm smashing them with hammers

EYO! Why are you right though? I'm not going to be able to read that the same, damn 😂

ASDFFHKLHL I'm glad you enjoyed, thanks for letting me know, also the ask too! Definitely a surprise, I appreciate it 😄

Does anyone know the name of the song that goes "1, 2, 3, 4, everyone get on the dance floor- 5, 6, 7, 8, pray the lord my soul to take"?

I heard it on the radio this morning and it sounded cool, but I can't find it now because search results only get me old dance songs and christian prayers lol

Reminds me of a song I learned about a while ago:

*hands sister wolf a Blahaj*

I think about this ask a lot. You had asked any of my characters anything, but you decided to give Sister Wolf a stuffed animal.

She would adore it and have to keep it away from her pack but like, how do you think of this?

I love you anon people and the craziness of my inbox. But also don't be horny when a new writing drops.

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

The world exists in such a baffling state of simultaneous sex-aversion and sex-hegemony. Every social platform on the internet is trying to banish sex workers to the shadow realm but I can't post a tweet without at least two bots replying P U S S Y I N B I O. People are self-censoring sex to seggs and $3× but every other ad you see is still filled with half-naked women. Rightwingers want queer people arrested for so much as existing in the same postal code as a child and are also drumming up a moral panic about how teenage boys aren't getting laid enough. I feel like I'm losing my mind.
