Weird Thoughts of a Mind Wandering

Sometimes, I think and ponder what has become of us. But then - I can't stop it, I can only try influencing it...

I’ve said very little in the last 3 years of this tumblr’s existance. I always try to be poignant and... well, okay, I fail at being brief.

I’m sorry for being quiet recently, but I rarely find the right words to say without turning up walls of text that seriously no one would ever want toi wade through.

Still, we all rock on. Yes, including you and me..

Trans Win Right to Self-Identify in Ireland

The Irish are on a roll when it comes to LGBT rights, now recognizing the right for transgender citizens to self-identify on government ID.

Transgender adults in Ireland will no longer need to find a psychiatrist or endocrinologist to testify on their behalf before seeing their gender legally recognized, reports The Journal. Instead, a transgender Irish citizen can simply self-declare their identity to update a passport, change the gender marker on a driver’s license, obtain a new birth certificate, or get married.

The upside of getting this “marriage equality” thing out of the way is that it makes legal gender changes a heck of a lot less complicated:

The government has also dropped another questionable element of the bill that would have forced trans people who are already married to get divorced in order to have their gender marker changed and for their transition to be officially recognized by the government.

Huge wins for equality in Ireland this month!

Re-blog if you would accept somebody you knew who came out as asexual

I’m honestly really curious to see how many people actually accept it. Because there are allot of people who don’t believe it’s real. Or at the least don’t accept it when somebody they know come out as asexual.

4k notes are really sad..

I’ll fully admit that I have made my fair share of jokes about the fandom and I’ll even cop to the fact that a lot of them can be construed as mean-spirited. If it means anything, I never meant any of my jokes to be an attack on anyone and that…I understand. I understand that being around people in general can be scary and that it’s made worse when it seems like everyone around you has you pegged as a socially inept loser. I understand the need and want to make a real connection with another person, be it platonic or romantic–especially romantic. I understand that no man is an island but when there’s no one around you, you can feel like you’re drowning. I understand that in this day and age where talking with someone who is thousands of miles away from you is only a key stroke away still can’t replace a friendly pat on the shoulder to help lighten the burden of life. I understand that women can seem difficult and demanding and I also understand that men can seem scary and threatening. And I also understand that in the absence of this connection, what might temporarily meet this need is a figurine of your favorite character or a poster of your favorite character or even a body pillow. And I also understand that purchasing these things can make you feel ashamed, like you’re admitting that yes, you are a socially inept loser because who else would buy it? But I want to tell you, not just the people who purchased a body pillow or a full-length figurine or even just the Otakus out there, but anyone who feels like they have no friends or anyone who could feel alone in a crowded room or anyone who just wants one person to say they care about them, I want to say you’re okay. x

I LOVE MY TRANS AND NON BINARY FOLLOWERS

You are valid

Your identity is valid

Your feelings are valid

Your experiences are valid

Fuck anyone who tries to undermine that. 

This space is a safe space. 

As an added note, if I *ever* fuck up and say something offensive or inappropriate; PLEASE tell me so I can learn, correct it, and apologize. 

[warriorandthestorm]

If you and I haven’t spoken lately, let me know how you’re doing here, please?

[derkork]

I am doing fine. Life may going the same way as always, but I sure as heck see no reason to complain.

If I had money I would buy this as a t-shirt.

[thecreach]

Intriiiiiguing. Do you maybe have money for stickers? ‘Cause that could be made to happen.

[thehumanarkle]

Barring my Dad winning the lottery, I’m not gonna have any money ‘til around Christmas. The joys of unemployment. :(

[thecreach]

…same! Ah well.

[derkork]

Pretty similiar here… But creach… what was that about “stickers”? Just out of curiousity.

[thecreach]

Oh, just thinking of using the common print-on-demand services where I also (attempt to) sell my own designs. I’d have to talk it through with the big D, of course.

[derkork]

Print on demand, well.. they’re not necessarily the most cost-efficient way (especially if you can imagine yourself keeping some stock) to do this, so it’d be a good idea to shop around.

This is obviously not meant as a dead-serious job title generator, but according to this, I am a National Associate for Coffee Benchmarking.... Yeah, it’s a big bunch of baloney you generate with this and of course, it’s solely meant for entertainment purposes. I mean, a possible (but highly unlikely) combination would be “Homeless Jerk of Bullshit Controlling”. (The original, german language version is from this facebook page)
