Actually the one driving me absolutely fera at the minute is "uncomfy", especially in serious conversations about actual social issues

I really don't like the recent jump to using "comfy" as a 1:1 replacement for "comfortable" anyway - it always used to mean "physically cosy" hence the sweet and silly abbreviation. And my brain simply will not update to the modern usage. "Comfy" is for getting into pyjamas in bed, or an adjective for a sofa, not a description of your feelings around social tolerance.

But "uncomfy"???! I viscerally fucking hate it. Disgusting word, completely undercuts the seriousness of the discussion.

All of which is entirely a me problem and at least partly the synaesthesia but fuck me blue, I'd be so happy if it fell back out of usage

My grandmother tells me that she thinks I drink too much water but that woman also seems to live off of half a cup of water and a can of Diet Coke a day and just sucks on hard candy when she feels thirsty so idk if it’s growing up in the 40s and 50s that made her like that or if that’s just how she is but I’m pretty sure she’s been dehydrated for the past 70 years or so

*hits the joint* In the Harry Potter universe, Merlin is canonically a Hogwarts alumni and a Slytherin, which is impossible because Merlin predates the existence of Hogwarts by centuries. Of course, JK Rowling didn’t know that because she is a dumb bitch. I’m sorry. Misogynistic phrasing. She is a willfully ignorant and hateful, deeply unlikable and ill-informed, untalented and unspeakably cruel…..person. Seriously, how could you write a series about British wizards without truly understanding THE British wizard. Anyway, Merlin would never be able to attend any sort of organized schooling. He’s definitely self-taught in every universe because he’s the most powerful wizard ever AND he’d have been expelled from any institution before he stepped through the door. The only reason they haven’t escorted him away from Camelot is because he can see the future and he is kind of like the king’s dad. I was so disappointed by BBC Merlin. I turned it on and I was like “What the fuck is this shit, where is my perverted old man?”

I’ve got a very embarrassing confession to make.

As a small autistic child, I had a really hard time understanding most jokes, but I understood people got mad when I didn’t find them funny, leading to me internalizing the structure of a joke being what you laugh at. No matter if it was actually funny or I understood what was being said, as long as something was phrased jokingly it belonged to the category of ‘funny’ and ‘joke’, what could be repeated for social points.

Unfortunately for me, saying “21” in a silly voice became the funny phrase to du jour when I was in 5th grade, introducing me to “key word that makes people laugh” humor for the first time. Immediately after that in middle school, some of my peers started making ‘attack helicopter’ jokes, but never with the context of transphobia. To me, this was very obviously another case of Funny Word Humor, and thus repeated it ad infinitum to earn social points. It wasn’t until high school when I started really getting online for the first time that I learned what ‘attack helicopter’ really implied. I had been out as trans for 3 years at that point.

That thing where milkmaids were often immunized against small pox because they'd already contracted the weaker cow pox earlier in their lives. That's Tumblr, to me, against whatever the hell social media landscape is happening in 2026.

"TikTok Instagram Youtube-Shorts Share-Your-Whole-Life Influencer Social-Media Online Online Online" it cannot affect me. I was already a weird online 16-year-old all so many years ago. You cannot grab me raw and unfortified with these poisons. I inoculated myself when glomping was a thing. I am still on Tumblr making text poasts.

Bai Zhan Shixiong Shen Yuan again

Shen Yuan didn’t originally recognize pre-transition Liu Minghui as the future peak lord of Bai Zhan, but he was very determined to help “her” become strong and independent enough to not immediately fall into the harem with a single look from Luo Binghe. That’s right shimei, you’re going on a camping trip/dungeon crawl with gege so he can force you to solve logic puzzles and think for yourself! Liu Minghui feels so special and chosen with all the attention Shen Yuan gives him when literally the entire peak are breaking down his door at every opportunity.

After Liu Qingge comes out, Shen Yuan tries really hard to be an affirming ally, getting Liu Qingge to do “guy stuff” (read: incredibly homoerotic activities) with him. Shidi, let’s bathe in the hot spring together since we’re both men! Shidi, we should wrestle, it’s not inappropriate to grab you anymore! Shidi, obviously we can share a tent since we’re both dudes! Liu Qingge is touched his Shixiong is trying to help him feel included, but respectfully he’s going to pop a blood vessel if he keeps seeing Shen Yuan’s bulge.

I stand by my more terminally ill female mcs in romance stance. do dying women not deserve to fall in love with a hockey player single dad too? is the baddie with consumption not allowed to fuck the brooding regency era widower? why does everything have to be happily ever after? why can’t it be happy now, at the end?
