A Break From Our Regular Programming: For the next little bit, this blog is going to mostly holiday survival resources for those in less than ideal situations.

I remember Brennan saying “laws are just structured threats made by the ruling socioeconomic class” during an episode of D20 and we truly just had to stan immediately

Lollll. Remember when this was a holiday survival blog made to help us make it through 2 weeks in December. But now I’ve been stuck at home and can’t really meet up with any friends and can’t really go anywhere for.... oh. Longer than Brock Turner’s sentence. Unamused 2020. Unamused.

if a fae asks for your name and you give them your deadname does that mean you’re free to pick up your chosen name from there on or are you just nameless forever no reason haha but please answer quickly

[transarsonist]

what happens is you loose the ability to recognize your deadname as being about you.

the myth that the fae steal names is slander they provide a much needed service for the trans community

[newtype-lila]

just got back from the forest, what’s a deadname

After reading Chris Evans’ tweet I just… I just couldn’t anymore. To all my American friends, please be strong and keep fighting. My heart is out to all of you.

“Why wasn’t friendship as good as a relationship? Why wasn’t it even better? It was two people who remained together, day after day, bound not by sex or physical attraction or money or children or property, but only by the shared agreement to keep going, the mutual dedication to a union that could never be codified.”

I like Marie Kondo because I’m so used to all the rhetoric around “decluttering” or “tidying up” being about how it’s somehow immoral to own things and that we need to burn our possessions and all live in sterile minimalist Hell in a plain white apartment with a deck chair and one potted plant.

So I like hearing the tidy lady tell me that yes I should live in a hovel with a bunch of linguistics books and dragon statues and here are some ways to keep the hovel clean and orderly while I lurk in it.

It’s so refreshing.

All the other home decor people:  “Kitschy nerd shit is a waste of space and you’re gonna get your soul devoured by a chaos dragon or some shit if you don’t get rid of all of it right now.”

Marie Kondo:  “See, if you organize the kitchen in this way, you can display these Khorn Berzerker miniatures far more prominently.”

The idea that you should model your life after what brings YOU joy, rather than what society/people think should bring you joy, is an act of rebellion.

[shutyourmoustache]

She’s right and she should say it.
