June 1st is TOMORROW. It means that GAY PEOPLE will exist, but only for ONE MONTH. Do not forget to buy your tickets to see them NOW, or else you will have to wait AN ENTIRE YEAR to be able to meet them AGAIN.

So we all talk about being in fandoms for things that are charmingly bad, and being able to acknowledge that they’re charmingly bad. But of course some people are in fandoms for things that are Actually Amazing. There are people out there who write fanfiction for The Best Science Fiction Novel Of The Twentieth Century. Or who draw fanart exclusively of The Best Movie of All Time. And there are even more people who are in fandoms for things that are Actually Pretty Good, which is not quite amazing but is closer to it than to Charmingly Bad.

And sometimes, you have a string of fandoms that are Actually Pretty Good. And the danger of this—the very great danger—is that when you have a string of Actually Pretty Good and even Actually Amazing obsessions, you start to believe that maybe you have taste. Perhaps you are now immune to the indignities of losing it over something mostly bad.

And then it is shattering to discover that no, bad things can still stick a fork in your brain. 😔

According to all known laws of quantum and regular physics, everything that exists has affected the universe in irreversible ways. Particles bounce, energy dances, and mass shifts.

The universe cannot forget you, we are written into its fabric.

I like the story better with you still in it.

Loom is warped once again! I'm going for a big bag of scrappy sock yarn left over from various weaving projects, tied together with a lovely skein of pink-yellow toned hand dyed yarn.

I wasn't super thrilled with how the warp looked by itself, but I think the weft is tying things together beautifully. Still figuring out the precise right beat for this very fine yarn, I'm too spoiled by worsted acrylic.

Found a small bobbin of a leftover ply of handspun and decided to toss that in there. It's got a very slight sparkle that's looking lovely in there!

(It's the thicker green stripe in there, I think it's a blend of merino and firestar nylon. It's left over from what I call my Hot Topic colorway)

[lil-leviathan]

It's woven! I love weaving with sock yarn, this scarf is light as AIR

For now though, scarf soup

day 6 / ???

[bakurapika]

this is really interesting in how it frames disability/low spoons/etc as not being a series of internal symptoms, but specifically a situation in which daily tasks increase in complexity. for example i used to be able to wash the dishes normally. but now mental and physical issues combine to make that situation have a lot of prequalifications (do I have time, energy, how long can I do it without being sore the next day) that means many more steps are involved in getting that single physical act of washing a dish to be done.

I’m trying to remember the quote. “On a good day, doing laundry is three steps. On a bad day, the first step is getting out of bed.”

Oh god. Why is her skin darker. No, no, I get that you brainwashed her and made her evil, that part is clear. Why is her skin darker. Ugh, no, it's not the aesthetic sense - the skimpy, revealing outfit is great, love it, though we do need to talk about why a sexually liberated woman parses as evil to you, but like. what about darker skin makes you think it signals evil. that's racist. i don't care that you're literally blue, its still racist. hey, you little cackling imps in the corner. yeah, you with the horns. no, the other one. any of you got a copy of Ibram X Kendi's How to be Antiracist? I feel like that's a good starting point

did perfectionism ever truly protect you from harm or neglect as a child though. ultimately. Lol

[greelin]

[REALLY NORMAL AND WELL-ADJUSTED VOICE] well you never know maybe it COULD have saved me. if i ever actually achieved perfection. it could have happened then. if i was actually ever enough. Which i was not

Why are all music teachers like this 😭😭😭

[communeist]

THEY ARE

[crematedequally]

when i was 8 i had a very intimidating russian woman as a music teacher- she was both my opera instructor and piano teacher. about a month into piano, she sat me down and said to my mother and i "this child- very beautiful voice, good for singing. i will not allow this child to continue piano. god did not want this child to play an instrument. he told me this in dreams. that is all."

my mom had it written down on a slip so we could remember the exact words because it was so funny. i HATED playing piano and i was definitely not good at it (i did end up having a good 5 years of opera training and ended up being a pretty accomplished choir singer though) and the idea of god sending my incredibly severe and serious russian piano teacher a dream begging her to stop teaching me piano was probably the funniest way it could have gone.

Remember when Lil Nas X beautifully explored his sexuality, seduced and killed the devil to the banger of all time, and instead of cheering on this openly gay and proud Black artist for his artistry and fighting back against respectability politics, suddenly said respectability politics was all the Queerest Place on the Internet cared about? Hm. Wonder what happened there.

Anyway I miss him and hope he's doing better with his mental health 🙏🏾

[creatingblackcharacters]

Like say what you want about "bad queer representation", but this was the song that made me openly and happily accept that I was bisexual. To see him up there Black and beautiful, making music that I love, absolutely killing it? Yeah. You couldn't tell me shit. This man made me proud to be out. "This will make them think we're evil for being gay" hey newsflash dawg-
