my 37 year old vampire girlfriend keeps telling me i simply don't understand the woes of immortality as if I didn't also own a VHS player or visit a blockbuster a few times as a kid

[maidthings]

she keeps staring off into the distance saying those shit like "those as youthful as you know not what horrors lie in your past" even though we both know damn well she's talking about the 2008 financial crash

TIL “Yankee Doodle” was written by the British to mock americans. “Doodle” is thought to come from the German “dödel”, meaning “fool” or “simpleton” and “macaroni,” a flamboyantly stylish type of dress, painting the Yankees as morons who thought placing a feather in one’s cap made them a “dandy.”

[toastpotent-deactivated20250619]

so you’re telling me that “stuck a feather in his hat and called it macaroni” would be like saying “wrote a G on his belt and called it gucci”

[beggars-opera]

that’s…a pretty good analogy actually

[ti-bae-rius]

US moron came to town

Hunting for some coochie

Wrote a G up on his belt

And this bitch called it Gucci

We all got that one mutual that be going through the most treacherous situations a person could endure and then posting a few minutes later about why such and such should get fucked through a concrete wall.

[the-quasar-hero]

Mutual: my situationship partner just got caught in a tornado at a broken glass factory where they were cheating on me with my landlord who just increased my rent by 6000% and my pet marmot has a disease so rare they’re naming it after him and all my bones are becoming apricot jelly which I’m allergic to.

Same mutual 16 minutes later: Do you think Ronald McDonald and the Burger King ever explored each other’s bodies?

Pros of Murcielago anime adaptation: more people will learn about kuroko the eight foot tall lesbian serial killer who eats pussy like its the last food on earth.

Cons of Murcielago anime adaptation: the discourse will genuinely kill people

[snakussy]

disclaimer about murcielago: its seriously not for antis

like, im just outright saying it here now. many of you yuri fans are going to get into the murciealgo anime. you're gonna think "neat, cool problematic yuri" and you're gonna think "its not gonna be that bad, maybe some lesbian james bond and dangan ronpa vibes"

in reality, your protagonist is a groomer who is a-okay with encouraging underage girls to noncon eachother. she also IS canonically into underage girls herself. she has eyed a little traumatized girl and thought about tapping that when she's older. she's canonically into minors; she just prefers big boobs.

murcielago the anime is not going to be an anime you can ever pretend for even a second that there is wholesome intent in any scene. there's going to be incest and blood and violence in every way.

if any of that genuinely upsets you, then don't go near this anime. its NOT for you. its for the yuri fans who genuinely DO want toxic action-y bullshit happening in their yuri and not another wholesome slice of life

not gonna lie i increasingly just find myself thinking... what are single disabled people supposed to do? basically everything assumes that either a) you have never been independent and are fully reliant on caregivers, whether this is parents or a paid carer that you are somehow funding, or b) you have a partner who can look after you, drive you to appointments, pick you up after you've had sedation, advocate for you, be your proxy, do the housework when you're sick, push your wheelchair, be your companion when travelling (e.g. handle the luggage if you're using a wheelchair), etc

and like. first of all even for people with partners that's assuming they're abled themselves and can handle all that. you can't assume that. secondly: what about people who are single, who live alone, who will probably always do so

"get someone to keep an eye on you when you start this new medication" who. "don't over exert yourself" nobody else is going to do the tasks. "this can be a walker or a transit wheelchair so your partner can push you when you get tired" my what

like it's not a coincidence that amatonormativity discussions started / developed in care contexts because it is so often the assumption that intimate partners will fill these needs. but I feel like this is often discussed in the context of "and this is too much to ask and puts too much unpaid labour on the unqualified partner" which is not untrue and needs discussing but like. also. what about people are single, independent adults who are neither emotionally nor geographically close to their siblings etc and are not Disabled Enough to have a paid carer (a group that grows as resources shrink). like are they just fucked then. they're on their own. punishment for failing to be enough of an adult to couple up.

theres a reason people on disability in ontario are increasingly considering MAID (medical assistance in dying) and this is why

you can't marry someone because your disability will be affected. you have to really convince your worker that you're not romantically rooming with someone and that its strictly platonic, otherwise your disability will be affected.

this ultimately makes it far harder to find a roommate situation because they'll seriously assume you're common law if you give them any reason to assume you're romantically involved, even if that reason is just a difference in gender.

odsp isn't even treated like a genuine disability assistance, either. the premier doug ford treats it like a temporary stepping stone in getting you back on work, even if it's the only way you can survive. he outright admitted he thinks we're all being lazy and watching tv all day when we could be working.

theres a federal CPPD that could've been genuinely great for disabled people --- but you're required to have worked and thus contributed to your pension plan. this means anyone who became disabled at a young enough age and never worked can't get it.

so as a result: people on odsp here have to survive off of around 1436 a month in a province where cheapest one bedroom apartment that isn't a boarder situation is gonna be 1300. if you go a bachelor apartment, you might bring that down to 1100. and if you rent a room, you can bring that down to half --- but opps, the only people willing to rent to ODSP recipients are landlords that want to take advantage of them in some way. otherwise 99% of the market is asking for employment references which many ppl on disability just plain dont have

so in conclusion: the government's answer to "what are we supposed to do" is we just fucking die in a large enough quantities that they can rationalize lowing assistance, or they cling to the few family members we have left who don't hate us enough to abandon us when we show signs of disability and "leech" off of them until THEY die.

i think the funniest thing to witness as someone who was in supernatural fandom in the early days and hasn't been in many years is the discourse about wincest.

because like. i cannot emphasize enough how wincest in the pre-castiel days was treated as an absolutely bog-standard slash ship.

standard shippy tropes circa 2005-2009, indistinguishable from the way people wrote any other odd-couple ship of the era. the fact that the characters were brothers often didn't come up at all, and if it did it was often just not a big concern. if you weren't into it because of, you know, the incest thing, you were politely considered a little odd, but to each their own. this probably has a lot to do with the fact that until s4 there was literally no one else you could plausibly ship either character with, but it's still unbelievably funny to me to witness the evolution there

[snakussy]

supernatural has been in our family since 2005, my moms been watching since release and she loves those guys more than her own kids sometimes and by association, i was forced to watch supernatural and know too much about supernatural since day one

the mere idea that newcomers don't realize the incest jokes were because the incest shippers were the fandom is amazing to even consider. becky existed for a reason, guys. it wasn't because they were laughing at the gross fans, they were laughing at the fact that this was the fandom.

i refuse to believe this isn't some wizarding world equivalent to rick rolling. i genuinely refuse to believe ANY of that was necessary. i think that this spell could've been super simplified into one or two steps and that the creator of the spell just keeps shoving it into everything to see how long they can get away with it
