Additionally, please don't involve me in shipping discourse and do not assign a particular label to me in this regard. tl;dr shit's complicated and a lot of you are oversimplifying things and/or just being mean. additionally, i will block you if i see you taking real world censorship issues and using them to push a particular "side" in shipping discourse, argue for ao3 as the "last bastion of creative freedom" or whatever, or just otherwise act like fighting over content in fanworks is on the same level as credit card companies making it harder for 18+ original works and their creators to get published and monetized.
Other things of note
Fandoms usually tagged in reblogs; often untagged in original posts (unless it’s a fanwork or some shitpost/ramble i WANT a given fandom to see)
Discussion of longer fics/series I’m working on USUALLY tagged #fic: [name of fic/series], unless a wip was untitled when i started tagging it. (or if it’s tkana. i’m not sure why that one’s special)
Recommended tags in blog search are as follows: former/semi-current hyperfixation tag, current hyperfixation tag, These Three Won’t Leave Me Alone And I’m Making That Your Problem tag, dqxi OCs tag, a3! OCs tag, my darling oc blorbos. May update these later.
If for some ungodly reason you wanna see me yell about professional wrestling that’s what @theater-for-jocks is for. It’s largely incoherent for several reasons but it’s there I guess. i try to keep the wrestling stuff off main but it does occasionally show up here if it's funny enough.
I'm gonna say it, I do think that even the laziest person imaginable should have a roof over their head, food in their stomach, and access to healthcare
how about this: when i was 9 and my stepdad beat me until i passed out and i told my friends at school, my teacher over heard and i was interviewed by cps. they also went to my house when i was at school. when i got home, my step father was waiting on the couch, and told me who visited him that day. he told me if i ever snitched again he would beat me to within an inch of my life.
how about this: my mother locked me out of the house when i was 14 and when i cried so loud the neighbors called the cops, the cop told me i should have been respectful of my mother who was trying to sleep.
how about this. the demon you know is less scary than the demon you don’t.
children in abused households are raised to fear the idea of being taken away. children in abusive households see that help makes things worse.
dont you ever blame an abuse victim for not going to the authorities.
Also, a lot of abused children don’t realize that they’re being abused or the extent of the abuse. It’s their normal. Their minds are formed by their experiences and if all they’ve known is one existence it can be difficult to recognize that it’s wrong
It can be difficult to realize that “better” even exists. This is part of why fiction can be life-saving. If you can read stories about happy families, loving families, sometimes you can hang on long enough to find or build a loving family for yourself.
are people under the impression that aromantic people never want to have close personal relationships with the people in their lives. "oh i wish i was aro it would save me all this drama!" actually human relationships are always deep and complicated and messy and have the potential to hurt and help and change your life and being romantic is just one possible aspect of that. aromantic people want to be close to the people around them just like anyone else. and i know the real issue is that people think romantic relationships are the only way to be truly close to someone else but it's weird and off-putting to constantly hear the implication that aros are somehow fundamentally incapable of forming relationships that would impact their lives negatively cause they don't wanna go on dates with people. not even mentioning the aros who do
As the curtain rises, miracles bloom. And there, we shall FLEUR.
Summary
The Mecca of Theater—Veludo Way. It refers to the main street in front of Veludo Station, where theaters line the streets and actors perform improvised plays known as "street acts."
It is here, at this base for theater companies of all sizes, that new member of the Fleur Award Board of Directors Yukio Tachibana announced the debut of the "Fleur Cup"—a competition in which everything from the eligibility criteria to the selection process for Japan's most prestigious theater award has been completely revamped.
Although MANKAI Company was temporarily pushed to the brink of crisis by the "devilish environmental destruction" that turned its entire history upside down, each of its four troupes—Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter—staged sequels to their debut performances. They successfully made it through the preliminaries and were selected as one of the top ten nominated theater companies.
It's been a year since then. The theme assigned by the board of directors to the theater companies competing in the Fleur Cup finals was "Shakespeare"—a name that remains synonymous with theater and is loved worldwide to this very day. During the finals—a head-to-head tournament where a single loss means immediate elimination—the recent theater craze continues to gain momentum.
Enthusiastic crowds and opposing forces. What was the unprecedented, earth-shattering event that they brought that shook the world of theater to its core?
This is the climax in full bloom. The story of the one and only "miracle" they bring forth.
Chapter 17: Players' Records
To be here for this moment—that's why we keep acting.
thinking about how when you experience a lot of shame in your formative years (indirectly, directly, as abuse or just as an extant part of your environment) it becomes really difficult to be perceived by other people in general. the mere concept of someone watching me do anything, whether it's a totally normal activity or something unfamiliar of embarrassing, whether I'm working in an excel spreadsheet or being horny on main, it just makes my skin crawl and my brain turn to static because I cannot convince myself that it's okay to be seen and experienced. because to exist is to be ashamed and embarrassed of myself, whether I'm failing at something or not, because my instinctive reaction to anyone commenting on ANYTHING I'm doing is to crawl into a hole and die. it's such a bizarre and dehumanizing feeling to just not be able to exist without constantly thinking about how you are being Perceived. ceaseless watcher give me a god damn break.
every now n then i think about how native americans as human beings just dont exist in like 99% of mainstream media. in movies or tv shows or books or video games or you know even in porn like we just arent people. when theres a native character theyre like a wild west indian. like truly to ppl we all died back in the 1900s.
“Please return the carts to the lobby when you’re done with them.”
“I know we said the fire alarm was malfunctioning but we’ve replaced it and it’s still having problems, if you’re vaping in the hallway at 2 am PLEASE stop.”
[one day after the previous cart email] “Please stop leaving the carts in the hallway, just return them.”
“It has come to our attention that someone may be pouring bleach in the freight elevator.”
[ten seconds after the previous cart email] “PLEASE don’t leave the carts in the elevators.”
Twitter occasionally does this very funny thing where it will recommend me an account because someone i was following before they blocked me follows that account. Considering that soft blocking works on there i actively don’t understand how this is possible from a coding standpoint.
