Caught Up On My Stories BTW. Handling It

[rwibbit]

happy pride

"oh you're part of a system? that must be so awful, having people speaking inside your head and taking over your body to do whatever they want!" it wasn't awful when sunny realised I wasn't drinking enough and filled up a large bottle of water so that I could see it and pour it directly into my cup without getting up. it's not awful when jasper immediately shoots down my irrational fears with calm, kind logic.

[crabussy]

it wasn't awful when francis spent an afternoon at the aquarium instead of me and got to see all the fishes for herself. it's not awful when julian can't contain a snort of laughter in my head at something we both heard or saw. it's not awful when phoebe procrastinates on assignments to play beatsaber until she's sweaty and bored. it wasn't awful when jon sat outside on the porch late at night, talking quietly to a neighbour's cat. it's never awful when any of the others chime in about everyday tasks and decisions and ideas. it's not awful when I come back and see that my house is suddenly tidy. it's not awful when I come back and it's messier.

[crabussy]

we're just people moving through our lives with one body between us. we have just as many small joys, irritations, helpful moments, poor choices, fits of giggles, bad times, and affectionate interactions as anybody else on earth. you can't decide we exist in a state of constant misery from our mode of existence alone. I love my crew.

[crabussy]

it's been nearly 8 years since I figured out that I wasn't alone in here. in those 8 years, we've all been through so much shit. we've also made so, so many good memories. I truly wouldn't want to live any other way.

I hope you're kind to the systems in your life. you have a very real power to make being part of a system less awful, just by listening and treating us like real people. and is that not wonderful? [:

There’s something that makes me go insane and it’s the image of someone cradling a dead body tenderly. They’re already gone but you still try to comfort them. They’re already gone but while the warmth in their body still remains you can pretend. They’re already gone and you were too late but still you hold them like your kindness can bring them back.

Finally got around to watching Project Hail Mary and the theme that stands out to me most is art

Art is how Grace and Rocky connect and first communicate - Rocky with sculpture, Grace with dance. Its the sign that Eridians are intelligent and have culture.

Art is how the team connects before launch, art is how Stratt connects to Grace. Its how Grace teaches, its how Grace connects to his students which are all he has for community.

Art is what breaks cultural barriers, its what connects people. Its communication and love.

Art is so important, now more than ever

update when markiplier announced he's producing the dvd/blu-ray himself i was like cool he's personally supervising the process and then he was like no i mean i'm making them myself at my house and i imagined some kind of complicated gargantuan contraption dutifully chugging along 24/7 blowing up this man's electricity bill and then he was like

anyway if you buy an iron lung dvd/blu-ray: it was made on a printer-sized machine. at markiplier's house.

[hoofpeet]

Must suck ass to be like. a lawyer or something in the pokemon world. They haven't made any cool lawyer pokemon yet

Why wouldn't ho oh be a lawyer? They're a Phoenix, wright?

[dkpsyhog]

In the kindest way possible, fuck you

In hindsight being a “gifted kid” is so funny. You have substantial difficulties with socializing and fine motor skills but we’re going to ignore that because you’re really good at reading chapter books

[boringkate]

You listen to music regularly? Why? Have you even tried quitting? Could you quit? You get music stuck in your head? Wow. You're so ruined and music brained. I bet you make your partners listen to music with you when you have sex. Music addiction has really ruined a whole generation. You know it's not realistic to expect reverb in real life, right? You're probably so desensitized that you don't even feel anything anymore when you hear a bird singing that it wants some fuck.

[paradigm-adrift]

I don't have a problem with people listening to music per se, but I do have a problem with the music industry exploiting & mistreating artists.

Personally, I abstain from all music in order to keep my hands clean but really music should just be illegal outright to protect musicians from abuse.

holy shit this person in the notes

Why are all music teachers like this 😭😭😭

[communeist]

THEY ARE

[crematedequally]

when i was 8 i had a very intimidating russian woman as a music teacher- she was both my opera instructor and piano teacher. about a month into piano, she sat me down and said to my mother and i "this child- very beautiful voice, good for singing. i will not allow this child to continue piano. god did not want this child to play an instrument. he told me this in dreams. that is all."

my mom had it written down on a slip so we could remember the exact words because it was so funny. i HATED playing piano and i was definitely not good at it (i did end up having a good 5 years of opera training and ended up being a pretty accomplished choir singer though) and the idea of god sending my incredibly severe and serious russian piano teacher a dream begging her to stop teaching me piano was probably the funniest way it could have gone.

I LOVE ACCURATE CHARACTERIZATION. I LOVE READING A FANFIC AND THINKING "YEAH THEY WOULD SAY THAT". I LOVE WHEN FANFICTION INCLUDES THEIR POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE TRAITS. I GET THE WRITER CAN DO WHATEVER THEY WANT AND IT'S A FANTASY BUT WHY DOES EVERY CHARACTER HAVE TO SOUND EXACTLY THE SAME NOWADAYS. I COULD ERASE THE NAME FROM A LOT OF THESE THINGS I READ AND GENUINELY NOT KNOW WHO I'M READING ABOUT.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

A fun bonus fact for you: those No Longer Buyable DVDs?

They're the ONLY surviving NONDAMAGED form of the show. In the late 90s, the masters from which the show is printed were damaged with a red-pink hazy filter.

So. Good luck buying them even if you find them. They're some of the most valuable collector's items in the entire franchise.

Without piracy, there would be NO UNDAMAGED COPIES OF SAILOR MOON AVAILABLE TO ANYONE ANYWHERE, PERIOD.

ETA: Because these undamaged copies are how you colour correct the uncensored ones.

Piracy Is Preservation.

nobody is immune but some of you are… concerning susceptible… 😟

This is a completely non partisan post btw.
