I am Bee

I'm an adult who has a husband and a queer teenager. I'm disabled, autistic and I'm genderqueer, bisexual, and aromantic

I'm ineffectualdemon on blue sky, pillowfort and cohost

I have a side blog where I am recording my retro watching reviews/project and you can find it here: @retro-watching

This blog is 90% Blorbo from my shows, 5% mental health/disability talk, 4% advocacy and 1% trying to cause people psychic damage

I curate my experience and am free with the block

Other notes: I am not your "Good Insane Person" I am uncomfortable and difficult and while I am open about my mental health struggles I am not better then other people who are mentally ill

My tag #not safe for esmes is because my kid has a Tumblr and follows me and they don't need to see me be randomly horny or sharing dick jokes or unpacking my trauma. So most nsfw content or talk about my childhood trauma gets that tag so it automatically filtered out for them

And no my kids name isn't Esme. That's our cat. It's just a convenient word

Me: *explaining how much United States Americans are expected to sing or hear the national anthem and say the pledge of allegiance*

My teenager: ....are we sure the United States of America isn't a cult?

[ineffectualdemon]

Explaining the cult of American Football and the American High School culture around it and School Spirit as a concept made things worse

My 17 year old is sad knowing I grew up in that system

And I honestly totally get it

It doesn't seem that weird until you move countries

[hroethvitnir]

It's *so* weird (as a non-American). I think there's a greater or lesser appreciation for the pledge being weird (creepy) and maybe the flags everywhere being A Lot.

High school sport being a professional-level Big Deal is probably less appreciated for being as fucking bizarre and unhealthy when you're steeped in it.

[ineffectualdemon]

From what I remember (and to be fair it's been over 20 years since I lived there) but

-we said the pledge every morning at school (we were supposed to through out public school and it was announced over the Intercom but everyone ignored it in highschool)

- we sang the national anthem at every sporting event from little league to professional

- we did the pledge at the opening of most events that had more than like 10 people. I'm talking school award ceremonies, school concerts, graduations, conferences, etc

- the national anthem was shoe horned almost everywhere

- school spirit/religious devotion to football went hand in hand with this

- spirit week is a week leading up to the homecoming game/dance where each day has a theme. The pep rallies are real.

I didn't participate the one year I was actually attending highschool at the highschool (I did the rest of time taking classes at the community college for highschool/university credit) and my principal pulled me aside and said my college application wouldn't be good enough if I didn't show "school spirit"

-high school assemblies started with the pledge and ended with the school song. This was mandatory and they got very upset if you refused to participate because the final bell had already rung

The obsession with highschool football and the related concept of "school spirit" feeds directly into nationalism imo

It's so overwhelmingly everywhere that you kinda just take it as background noise until you move countries and it's like "what the shit was all of that!"

Nigerian Pride 🏳️‍🌈🇳🇬

I meant to have this out yesterday. Happy belated pride. :)

[sunflowersosa]

I'm glad you all like the Nigeria Pride post!

Originally, I went in worried the opposite would happen. Growing up, I've been taught that Nigeria, the country, is homophobic. (I was born in America.) But over time, I learned that there's tons of other queer Nigerians; some are out, and some are in the closet 😭.

I'm also not used to this much attention, lol

Thank you all!

Modern Au where Mobei and Shen Yuan are in corporate war over who gets to be Xiang Fei's sugar daddy/Dom

Meanwhile Xiang Fei is like planning several ways to disappear with as much money as possible if either of meal tickets bail on him. As far as he is concerned Shen Yuan wants control of his fiction (fine he doesn't care) and Mobei is using him for his skills with logistics. This is also fine but he's also scared so he's only embezzling a tiny bit from him and mostly embezzling from Shen Yuan and even that is a small amount so he doesn't get caught.

(He's not embezzling from either of them. They are completely aware of it and have sanctioned it and are both slowly upping the amount he's getting while also both of them are actively giving him money face to face.)

The important thing to me is that Shang Qinghua is competent, sexy (especially to demons), likable, and powerful

But he is completely unaware of any of this

Head Disciple of An Ding having been summoned to a peak lord meeting alone: whattttt? Shizun in league with demons? Oh nooooo I am very definitely shocked and had no idea. We will all be very surprised. Oh how terrible and unforseen. We all definitely were in the dark. We will of course be discreet about this shocking and horrible revelation but please give us time to adjust to this news

The An Ding Head Disciple immediately upon getting back on An Ding: Shizun got caught. Hide all the demonic contraband and the demon food we keep for Shizun's demon husband. If anyone asks we follow protocol 3, we knew nothing

Shang Qinghua when ruminating on his An Ding Return at his King:

- youtuber I like is publicly still recovering from an abusive relationship that included severe financial abuse even after the relationship ended

- said YouTuber pretty much is only partnered with one brand that sells a drink powder

- the drink actually sounds pretty good. Very tasty. Said YouTuber actually uses the product they endorse and it actually sounds like it tastes good and is worth the price

- product is called "gamersupps" and has products called shit "anime girl thigh" (that legit sounds delicious flavour wise) and has a lot of anime titties on the packaging

- am 42 and don't want anime titties or product called "blo-hole blast" and "goof juice" in my cupboards where people can see

- but it also actually sounds tasty and I sometimes need flavoured water in order to drink anything and they do non Caffeinated versions

I ordered the free sample.

I'm seriously considering buying some and decanting it into another container because FFS

22 year old me would just be enjoying the titties but I'm 42. It would be awkward to have anime titties in my cupboard. Especially since I have a teenager. Who also follows and wants to support Oz (the YouTuber) but also doesn't want anime titties.

I kinda wish they had a plain packaging option

It's not even that I'm a prude it just feels awkward!

22 me would have been fine with it but 42 me is like ...not my vibe.

I think I'm okay with most people finding me unlikable as long as I'm doing my best to be kind

Annoying is better than mean imo

An Ding Head Disciple in front of the other peak lords: We must take back our traitorous Shizun? Oh no. We are upset. But we will follow the will of the sect leader.

An Ding Head Disciple once he's alone with Shang Qinghua: welcome back Shizun!!! We will have your favourite melon seeds ready as soon as possible! Will your h-Demon Lord be visiting soon?

Shang Qinghua: er...probably. Sorry about everything

An Ding Head Disciple vibrating with the restraint it takes not to tackle their Shizun with a bear hug: no apologies needed. An Ding understands the need for trade with the demon realm better than most. We just missed Shizun's guidance

Shang Qinghua sweating and thinking his Head Disciple wants to attack him: ah? Good?
