Happy birthday, @skyrim-forever!

I was afraid I wouldn’t finish this before the day ended, but I just made it! Theo is drunk at the Silver-Blood Inn and having a heated “discussion” with someone. I’ll let you decide who with and what about. I tried a little different style with this one, but I think it came out pretty well.

Vanderbilt Nurse

Here’s the thing:

I have no issue with that Vanderbilt nurse who paralyzed that patient to a slow, agonizing death because she admitted her mistake and accepted the consequences of it. What I *DO* have an issue with; is all of the fucking instagram nurses rushing to her defense because “it’s a hard job” “It’s an understandable mistake” “it could happen to anyone” “It wasn’t really her fault” “she didn’t actually kill him”

No. Fuck you. She made several horrible errors in a row that led to the death of a patient. This is the exact same groupthink that makes me fucking sick when cops try to justify obviously shitty actions by obviously bad cops and it literally degrades the entire fucking profession. So yes, I will continue to make fun of how bad of a medical error it was; and do so loudly, and directly to, nurses who get somewhat uncomfortable because of it.

Be better. Have confidence in your own skills, own your mistakes, and if your mistakes are bad enough to literally fucking kill another human being, admit that maybe somebody better should be in your place and quit your goddamn motherfucking job.

fucking hell I was just reminded about how bad everything is in the US when a friend mentioned being worried they were exposed to covid but being unable to access any tests and

I live in a relatively poor country in central europe and

the cost of living here is far lower than in the US and beer is cheaper than (bottled) water and

the thought, the idea, the abstract concept that you wouldn’t be able to get a covid test is so absurd that people assume I’m lying when I say that’s how it is in the states

I live in a relatively poor, run-down, ugly part of a major city. the buildings are crumbling. outside the windows are 24-hour noises of traffic and trams and homeless people yelling at each other.

there is a testing site literally across the street.

there is another one around the corner from that.

go a little further down the street? there’s another one.

all of them are free. you just walk in, say i need a test, show your insurance card (a thing every citizen has by law), and they just. they just test you.

some of them are rapid tests and you get the results in 10 minutes. some of them take 2 days. 2 whole days! and the thought of having to wait TWO DAYS to know if you have covid is absurd to some people. I’ve had friends complain about having to cancel plans while waiting on test results because it takes TWO ENTIRE DAYS to get an accurate result.

there are a thousand ways this country, this shitty little country, kind of sucks to live in sometimes. but i would fight like a fucking rabid raccoon for my right to stay here rather than ever, ever, EVER have to set FOOT on US soil ever again. if you live there, however bad you think it is, it is much, much worse. burn it to the fucking ground and build something beautiful in the ashes.

hello I’m here to drunkenly defend my writing choices and my general thoughts because it seems I’m alone in this 

I see people hating on (and i’ve personally received hate on) fics where Tony and Ziva have another kid and name him Adam.

Hiya, hey, hello, my name is Cynthia and I will write a Tiva kid named Adam until the day I DIE.

Valid Adam Eshel criticisms that I’ve seen:

1) he slept with Ziva when she was emotionally fragile and not in a good state of mind. 2) ?????

You know who else slept with Ziva when she was emotionally fragile and not in a good state of mind? TONY FUCKING DINOZZO, THAT’S WHO. Do we hate on him for that? If we do, I haven’t seen it discussed on my dash. Yes, he did, and so did Adam, and I don’t think either one of them is commendable for it.

You know what IS commendable? Adam giving up the last few years of his life (though he didn’t know it would be the last few years of his life) and his life itself to look out for Ziva and Tali... and, by extension, Tony. He dropped everything to take Tali to Orly Elbaz, and then to do WHATEVER Ziva needed after that. He infiltrated Ari’s splinter cell; I’m sure it was a scary thing, and it was not without risk. It can’t have been pleasant, and I’m sure he was asked to do things he didn’t want to do. He did them anyway. 

He did all of this KNOWING that Ziva didn’t feel the way about him that he felt about her; instead of getting all “friend zone” pissy about that, he put his money where his mouth was and defended the woman he loved. She didn’t want to let him, didn’t think it was fair to him, and you know what? She was right. But adult humans have autonomy and he chose to protect her anyway. He lost his life in the effort, tortured to death in a lonely decaying warehouse far from home. Sahar talks about how he was delirious in his final hours, how he gave away the secret of Tali--but that’s only because he tried, once again, to protect Tali... a child created between the woman he loved and another man. 

I THINK THAT PRETTY MUCH ABSOLVES HIM OF ANY CRIME HE MAY HAVE COMMITTED BY SLEEPING WITH ZIVA AT THE TIME OF HER FATHER’S FUNERAL.

Is it minorly weird and messy for a kid to be named after someone (not the father) that the mother slept with? Yeah, maybe.

But you know what? Life is weird and messy. Love is weird and messy. Family is weird and messy. And I think Adam Eshel was undeniably a part of Ziva David’s family. His legacy was one that deserved to be honored; it was a legacy of bravery, and self-sacrifice, and a deep, unshakeable love. 

No one will ever convince me otherwise.

I’ll admit it, I’m incredibly biased when it comes to my favorite ship. I love Sokkla, okay? I know it may seem cheesy to say, I know it may seem redundant, like its a broken record for me. And I know its crazy, because its a crack ship and all that. Perhaps some of you are rolling your eyes at me. Perhaps I should apologize for how much I like it, because its so boringly obvious or predictable of me. 

But people, I’m letting you know right now, right fucking now, I love it that much. Criticize me all you want, but I know what I’m about. I am literally so happy and ecstatic that I get to talk about this ship to so many people now, its insane. You guys are the best, believe it, I’m shit, you all are the best. 

Yeah, sure, I like other ships, I may ship Sokka other people in ATLA, I may ship other people with Azula in ATLA too, some of which are very controversial. I’m just letting you know right now, as corny or as bloody boring as it sounds, Sokkla is MILES on top. Of everything. Its my muse.

Perhaps I should explain why I like it. I don’t think I need to go in depth though, anyone who ships it... their reasons are their own honestly. Every single person I have talk to so far about this ship who has expressed an interest in it has their own reasons. And you know what? I applaud you all for it! Some can express it in an essay, some can express it with a simple phrase. Hats off to you all for that honestly! Some want it for the smut, some for the fluff, some for the romance, some for the wit, the tragedy, the angst of it all!

All I’m saying is that, for how ever long you ship it, whether it be for a fleeting moment of for a however long your life goes on (because we have had an actual person die writing before they could finish writing stories for this ship), all I’m saying is this... own it. Fucking own it! Please don’t be scared to! And I know we may all have different opinions on how we should ship it, whats the proper way to ship it, but people! We’re all in the same boat here! Reconcile, understand, accept, no two sets of eyes see things alike, even if they are moved by the same thing they see in front of them! This is what being a normal human is like, with different interests and likes!! Sure some may ship it less than you or perhaps some may not be as vocal about it as you, but we all express love for something differently!! 

I’ll give you an example - I fucking love Sokkla smut! Don’t believe me, see my archive! Am I degenerate for it? Maybe! Probaly But I love it! Why? The intimacy, man! To allow someone to touch you, hold you, kiss you, and fuck you... sometimes you gotta build up trust for that and sometimes you can just go for it in a snap! That’s beautiful man. All of it, its actually fucking amazing! The courage, the  drive, the audacity, the recklessness, the “I don’t give a fuck, just fuck me” attitude! its gratuitous and messy, buts real because try so hard to physically express how you want the other! That is Sokkla man!

Does that mean I dislike fluff? The soft side of the long torturous struggle of shipping? Where words and hugs and healing prevail? Fuck no, I love that shit! Even if I don’t express it that much! Or even reluctantly for that matter! Sometimes you just gotta have that! When you fuck, for some you just feel like a piece of raw cum covered meat, and who would want to eat you then, right? An encouraging word, a hug, a shoulder to cry on, a simple kiss on the forehead , a friendly gesture out of the goodness of ones heart, sometimes that can be as powerful and invigorating and, dare I say, a TURN ON, as a girl flashing her tits or a guy whipping out his wang, how ever you like to roll. That is Sokkla man!

So what am I saying? At this point I don’t even fucking know! I’m just trying to say that, to anyone who likes this ship, whether you go all out for it, whether you’re a multi-shipper, or just have a casual interest in it - please, enjoy it! Enjoy it to your fullest! Life is short and harrowing to go through, enjoy this shit while you can. I’m just saying that I’m in the same boat with you and I want to enjoy it with you as much as I can! So if you’re new here to the Sokkla community - hello! I am a fan too, please forgive my weirdness! I am in this corner for as long as there is a corner! I know I am not the best fan for this community and I know I will have a different viewpoint on the ship than others, but who is perfect honestly? We’re not the same. Ideas for shit spring from different brains. I may think its odd, but god damn me I’m going to stop you from doing it. What am I, the Thought Police? What kind of Orwellian shit is that? Ain’t no one owns this ship either and I sure hope there are no gatekeepers, this ship is free public domain after all. Just an idea that’s taking its time to grow for all to enjoy for all I care! I’m just so glad right now I could fucking cry buckets of water large enough to fill the Colorado River.

Drunken Rant #2

Topic: Drag Race All Stars 3 *Spoilers* BendelaCreme is the QUEEN of self-care. She did that. She FUCKING did that. I've had mixed feelings about her ever since her season, but now I have the deepest respect for her and she will be the winner of All Stars 3 for me despite whatever the outcome. On that note; #TeamTrixie. Also, I REALY hope Bebe doesn't win. I love her, but she already won her season. Plus her behaviour in the last few episodes hasn't been outstanding imo. Redemtion for Aja. SHE SEWED YOUR DAMN DRESS GIRL, and she just thanked the judges for complimenting her. Nah fam, I would've been like "i couldn't have done that without Aja". And is it just me, or was her performance in this weeks chanllenge lackluster? I feel like the judges think that her shit doesn't stink. I admit, she's done so great shit, but like? I feel like they're going easy on her? Idk thats just my opinion. It's almost like last year with Alyssa and how they just loved her for her Alyssa-isms??? Ya feel? Anyway, thats my tea of the night. Thanks for listening.
