becoming bewitched by code geass... dangerously obsessed with Rolo, evil child raised by the government to be an assassin that falls to pieces as soon as someone shows him kindness and gets stuck in a fucked up brother dynamic wow

#code geass #lelouch is like the worst person you could have sent rolo after #because his strategy is manipulate first ask questions later #no geass necessary just saving him from being shot a couple times #i was screaming when rolo was getting really close to lelouch like i'll be your little brother forever #OKAY #that is all

it really gets my goat that turkish words in english-language books have such inconsistency with the use of letters from the turkish alphabet. YES it's nice that you put the cedillas there but why not the dotless I??? you already had to open the special characters... what's wrong with my friend ı bring me ı !!!!

#that is all #really small gripe but also confusing to me in terms of editorial choice

That particular disappointment of the more literate-than-average child upon discovering that “gaol” is just pronounced “jail”

you're not making enough of stone fruit season. that's another thing you're fucking up. a few dozen stone fruit seasons you get your whole life. you need to take a hard look at your peach and mango consumption.

#pretty close to what my internal monologue sounds like lol #failing at eating enough of the right kinds of fruit #possible to do and normal to worry about lol

How about Other people start worrying about how I perceive them

i feel stuck between the hammer of how much i dislike being misgendered and the anvil of how little it materially matters

getting bent out of shape and the like

#that is all #like i have a job and legal documents and health care and enough food etcetc #i’m fine #and i’m upset because everyone thinks i’m a woman?

How it feels to call it "this piece" instead of "that one fanart/fanfic"

#thanks corinne #me and my friends having tea and dissecting fanfic world buildibg

What amuses me about queernorm SFF the most might be when a culture has really blatant indicators of gender/pronouns like specific trim on a uniform, earrings of different materials, etc. and both the narrative and character voice immediately notice and obey them. Because we have those in our current society and they don’t fucking work. Hard to believe with the passage of time or in some secondary world people would choose a more convoluted visual code than the humble pronoun pin.

Like that post asking why humans don’t have a specific alarm call for bees in the area. We do have that! It’s “hey there are bees here.”

#that is all #and dont come to me like what if not everyone can read #well what if not everyone wants to wear earrings #put some friction in the culture #or don’t it’s whatever

really annoying thing about me is on a hot summer day whenever i smell cigarette smoke i will remark “wow reminds me of istanbul”

#that is all #but in my defense it is just like being in Istanbul #hot pavement car exhaust cigarette smoke sweat street food
