#has a rant

[snorklepie]

Snarkiness aside, I’m actually really upset about The Edinburgh Problem being plagiarised. I feel a bit sick and shaky (and not to mention REALLY bloody pissed off). I spent the best part of a year working on that story and I’m actually really proud of it because I had never written a novel-length story before. 

When someone comes along and steals something you’ve poured a lot of time, energy, thought and feeling into it actually stings. This person obviously thought it was totally ok to just take my story, translate it into another language and stick their name on it. It’s clear from the comments that they are absolutely 100% presenting it as their own work, not just a translation. 

Maybe they thought no one would join the dots. It’s stupid and mean and petty and it’s incredibly thoughtless towards the feelings of people who put a lot of effort into their writing. I woke up this morning looking forward to my small window of time available for writing and now I don’t feel like it AT ALL.

Ok but real talk on the whole gender thing.

It really, REALLY, pisses me off when people don't like cis people simply because they're cis. I full on support everyone who isn't cisgender. I don't discriminate. Fuck, I'm pansexual. I'd date/frick frack with someone who isn't cis. But I feel like I don't deserve to be supportive because I, myself, am cis. I feel bad for being cis. This is how tumblr makes me feel. Because we are shamed for being privileged. I understand that I do not know what it's like to not be cis. But that doesn't make me any less supportive or sympathetic of anyone's case.

I'm made to feel that, if I don't have something to complain about (I use the term complain in the nicest way possible - I don't mean anyone's whining or anything), that I am a shitty person. I am made to feel like I am a bad guy. Ok sure I'm female and I'm also not straight but apart from that I feel like if I'm not in a minority I should be ashamed of myself. But these are things I cannot control. I do not choose to be female. I don't choose to be pansexual. Just like I don't choose to be cisgender, and I don't choose to be white. So why the fuck are people hating and shaming people just for being privileged? I'm not a twat. I don't go around being a douchenugget to people who aren't privileged. If you do, then sure, I understand why people are hating on you (even though I don't condone being a dick to people because they're a dick, too. But whatever). But just aimlessly hating on people who could potentially HELP you? That's fucked.

Whatever, that's just my two cents and it probably doesn't make much sense. I just needed to get it out of my system.

Ya know what...

I can have Elements be what I want, and it doesn't matter if it's Accurate to your interpretation, Chinese Interpretation or anyone elses interpretation. I can do what I want and I don't care if you agree or don't agree.

Because in reality to me, Mother Nature is a fictional character, and as I develop her and what she can do I can have it as anything I want.

So do not correct me because it does not agree with your opinion.

Thank you

You know what I don't understand? Why standards of beauty nowadays are constantly pushing women to look like pre-pubescent girls. When women lose that much weight they lose their boobs, ass, thighs. They stop menstruating, they grow extra hair which they then rip out by the root. I see women who look like sticks and I can't for the life of me see them having children or being able to fend for themselves - there's something incredibly fragile about them. I wonder if they're happy.
