#i will block you if you do the opposite

[monsterqueers]

Im just really annoyed about how people just fucking hate it when the kids they were jealous of and hated in school for not also getting bad grades also report being fucking traumatized by the school system.

Yeah sorry school traumatizes everyone, even the 'ex-gifted kids' you fucking hate because god forbid someone wasnt exploited and overworked the same way you were.

Sorry a group of predominately neurodiverse people experiencing burnout and how their upbringing of being only valued for their academic performance totally fucked their ability to function in the real world dare talk about this pain where you can see.

Its not being privileged and ~humblebragging~ to report emotional neglect from your parents centered around you having to get perfect grades to receive any scrap of love.

Wishing violence on them for talking about it and finding each other isn't cute either.

And because these people need it stated extra clear

This post is NOT saying other groups of people 'had it less bad'. This is about a specific phenomenon of vitriol towards a oft neurodiverse group of people commiserating about how they were screwed over by the system under the label 'gifted kid' NOT whatever else you are imagining im saying. <3

#clown on this post and get blocked #dismissing abuse reports because you think the people being screwed over by the system differently threaten you somehow is wrong sorry <3 #rebloggable but if it breaches containment too hard I might lock it to avoid the piss on the poor crowd #these ppl do not realize part of the point of 'ex gifted kid' is the fact that the label WAS bunk & was just used as an excuse to abuse us! #thats literally half of the talk & theory! We were just normal kids!!! Thats the fucking point!! Its not being elitist its the opposite!! #blocked and unfollowed 3 different people for threats of violence towards anyone who identifies with 'ex gifted kid' which inspired this

This is such a little detail but I LOVE that melinoe and zag's heterochromic eyes are opposites!

#hades #hades game #hades game 2 #zagreus hades #melinoe hades #supergiant games #someone better than me is already doing comparisons of them #but also i just noticed that meli got persephone's blonde hair too!! #EDIT: because it doesn't appear i was clear enough: i'm talking about the irises. melinoe's red and green eyes are in opposite positions #when you compare them to zag's #the sclera has nothing to do with it it's just easier to compare the two animated trailers #if you're gonna 'well actually' me in the notes i'm gonna block you

I just came to a really obvious conclusion, and honestly, I think it can explain a lot.

I think a big reason why there is so much petty in-fighting in (some) queer spaces is simply because it is easy. It is easy to yell at other queer people for the language they use, or what labels they do or don't have, if they transition "right" or at all, if they are the "right" kind of queer, or whatever else. That shit is very easy.

It isn't easy, however, to fight queerphobia. It isn't easy to fight what can feel like a losing battle, and many queer people seem to almost give up because it feels like a losing battle. All those negative feelings bottle up, until it explodes and the shrapnel from those bottled-up feelings hits other queer people.

A recent anti-queer hate crime happened so close to my home town, and it really scared me. Those feelings of dread and doom and despair are indescribable. It's hard to wake up sometimes and intentionally decide to go outside because of it. This is an example, but it sometimes does feel like there's little I can do, y'know? So I think other queer people also feel like me, but they turn those feelings inward at other queer people.

I don't think this excuses anti-queerness coming from other queer people. But I think it can give us an idea of what that mindset is like. We need, more than ever, to defend each other. Queerphobia targets every queer person. To leave one queer person behind is to leave us all behind. Leaving one queer behind paints a target on all our backs. So be careful not to leave them to face queerphobia alone.

I recently got out of a toxic and unhealthy friendship on here. I had to be the one to end it; hopefully the other party decides to leave it be and not smear my name due to realizing it wasn't healthy and that I had to end it because of it.

Basically, if someone makes you start feeling like shit, from your life, to your goals, passion, and everything else, then it's not a rewarding friendship. And it's hard to sometimes see it in the moment. Because you want to think the best of peeps, especially ones you care about.

But sometimes the healthiest thing for You is to know when to put your foot down and end it, even if it hurts you and them. At the end of the day, you matter and what you're doing matters and no one has the right to make you feel shit for who you are when you're just living your life. Life is hard enough without adding peeps who make you feel that way or question how you live when, prior to them showing up, you were happy with all of it.

To anyone in a relationship or friendship like that, I hope, like me, you are able to take a stand and realize you deserve better.

I knew I was being manipulated but not how much until I talked to others close to me. I pray you all never have to experience such a thing because damn, you know you did the right thing, but feel so fucking guilty at the same time.

But your happiness matters. You matter. Please remember that.

#personal #me #had to make a post. it's been eating at me since I ended it #you feel so fucking guilty but know it was the right decision. #i feel happier and lighter #its weird cause I've met my closet friends on here who are so incredible and supportive and respectful and I am in return #so to have one spiral into....that....was hard. and hard to realize despite my stomach aching day after day trying to tell me that #this was a shit situation and I deserved better #if someone makes you feel like shit and makes you believe you deserve to feel that way: leave #just leave #block them #life is to damn short to share it with people who will only make it worse and and make you feel bad as a person #i have more self respect than that #and sometimes it's hard to tell cause I want peeps to get along and have a good time when I care for them #i like making peeps happy. it brings me joy. and I tend to do it naturally without thinking. #so it's hard to sometimes see when it's not healthy #i pray for anyone in a relationship/friendship like this #know you are worth it and no one has the right to make you feel like that. #when someone doesn't respect that you have a life and can't be there 24/7 and take it Personally when you can't....like no #I've had so many friendships on here that respect your time and realize messaging comes second maybe even third or fourth #and it sucks when the opposite happens and it just gets worse and worse. #And them using 'i used to be a therapist so I know you better then yourself' should never be an excuse for them putting you down EVER.

I went looking and couldn't find any record of me ever actually posting this on tumblr, oops, but a couple years back I wrote this thread on twitter about how Emmeryn's sacrifice absolutely is not supposed to teach Chrom (or Robin, for that matter) that "sacrifice is necessary" or anything like that and mmmm for reasons I am getting Upset about it again so asdfghjkl I'll actually share the Rant with my tumblr followers this time.

#i'm sorry i'm sorry it's just then whenever i see anyone say that chrom didn't “learn his lesson” about sacrifice from emmeryn i freak out #it's such a common take too??? well okay idk if it's “common” or if i just keep running into a niche take but either way i've seen it a lot #i could also get into (i think i have before at some point) that when robin says “what is one life when weighed against millions?” it's... #it's actually a misquote of emmeryn's “you each have but one life and i do not wish it weighed against mine.” #and despite sounding similar it actually has a directly opposite meaning #emmeryn's saying her life is not more important than anyone else's but robin's saying that their life is less important than everyone else' #also robin does NOT in fact believe in sacrificing for the greater good. look at their supports with virion. and walhart too actually #when chrom tells aversa that one person's life means nothing in the shadow of millions he's basically parroting robin #except neither he nor robin believe that. that's what they say when they feel powerless. like when emmeryn was on that cliff #(also the game literally does call out the hypocrisy? aversa points out he didn't feel that way when his sister was on the line... #like... you're supposed to notice...) #anyway sorry for vagueblogging but do note that i've had this take for 2 years (and well... longer but it took me a while to write it out) #and dang it i have a certain blog BLOCKED but sometimes i go to my mutuals blogs directly and for some reason tumblr still shows me reblogs #anyway normally i would keep my mouth shut it's just that i already had this one ready to go from 2 years ago asdfghjkl

getting real tired of people who are shitting on “found family” more generally as a narrative concept and specifically named familial dynamics in fan interpretation of characters in particular because it all seems to be getting painted with a really wide and really homogenous brush. “we need to take found family away from people because they think it all has to be In Nuclear Family Terms and do you know friendship exists and you don’t have to call these characters siblings to legitimize their relationship while making it clear you Don’t Ship Them Ew Gross and THEN you sneer at people who Do ship them” cool cool that is a lot of really intense characterization and assigning of motive to other people en bloc!

like sure there’s some meaningful critique to be found in a broad trend to label every single relationship directly and specifically with terms that have very specific contexts and roles but im waiting to be told when anyone IS by the standards of people making and reblogging these very sweepingly generalized posts allowed to call a relationship parental or whatever. is that Ever allowed. who is handing out the permits. sometimes a specific term for a relationship isn’t actually about wanting an excuse to sneer about your ship (and frankly there’s a lot of projection going on there imo from people who are actively sneering about other people’s interpretation of a relationship!) and it’s because there are very specific contexts and details about a dynamic that makes exploring it from the lens of siblings or whatever very rich and compelling and interesting because words mean things and assuming everyone is just being reductive and demanding conformity to a nuclear family is, ironically, really reductive.

so like. cool it. stop being really fucking mean about people having an interpretation of a dynamic you personally don’t like or makes you feel a little weird or uncomfy because you ship them.

#gav gab #im so tired of seeing people do this lmao #is someone actually being reductive and trying to get your ship labeled ‘basically incest’ #or did they just express on their own blog that they don’t ship something bc they see those characters as siblings #so it feels weird to them #you know #the exact personal preference and interpretation you’re expressing in the opposite #it’s all ‘UGH not every relationship NEEDS A SPECIFIC LABEL’ as soon as the label isn’t romantic lmao #like amazing of you to start caring about how friendship matters as is legitimate without anything else #as soon as it’s not about your fucking ship anymore :) #be real you do not care about friendship lmao you can just dismiss it more easily and comfortably #when people aren’t using terms that are more loaded to your ship #are the big meanie found family enjoyers actually harassing you for shipping fake incest #or are you just uncomfortable when it is not about you #and chronically unwilling to curate your experience the way you demand other people to #because fandom has always catered to shipping and why should it ever Not be expected to do that #bc I sure see a lot of shit talking of familial dynamic labels based on people who use those labels being weird to other people #and not a lot if any of those people actually being weird to shippers #and one or two isolated incidents is not indicative of a widespread problem #do what everyone who doesn’t like a popular ship does and unfollow and block lmfao grow up

Also I just think it's fundamentally ableist to assume whether or not someone is a child or not and deserves to be infantilised based on their degree of neurodevelopmental capability to do things such as walk or talk. to be real.

#incoherents #someone using eugenics with terms like 'mental age' when I'm literally doing the opposite and that's what they're doing #also basing infantilisation on what people are CAPABLE OF that's sooooo fucked up #using the idea of being able to walk and talk??? do you not get how basing these ideas on whether or not someone #DESERVES to be infantilised rather than seeing someone has having unique sets of vulnerabilities due to actual lived time on earth is. uh #less ableist #like I can't even argue with someone who is trying to tell me that someone deserves to be treated like an infant because they're 'incapable #(disabled??????) rather than someone should be treated with regards to their time alive being extremely low to protect them from #the trauma of the child abuse they're experiencing like #OH MY GOD even them taking my tag meaning about how someone who has nothing to compare to regarding their life & abuse but is capable of #being neurodeveloped is intersting meaning that THEY ARE AN ADULT BECAUSE THEY CAN TALK #sorry i have blocked this person I just cannot cannot take someone trying to argue that I am being ableist while saying some of the most vi #ableist things I've seen in a while seriously #tw ableism

i'm not replying to this. i blocked this person. but. i need people to understand that this is so so weird. i was venting about my experience with abuse and it's unsurprisingly not a light and fun topic and i get questioned about it? like what do you get from sending this? jesus

#yes of fucking course i know what gaslighting means you dick lol it's soooo weird to question me about my own trauma!!!!! #idk what's up with the weird anons i've been getting on this blog lately but they're not making this tumblr thing fun #quite the opposite #i might have to go back to talking about personal stuff on main only lol #(also considering remaking this blog bc i feel Weird) #anyway like please don't take time out of your day to do this shit 😭 if you really don't like the way i talk about my life then just #idk unfollow me block me ignore me move on !

this is definitely just me and where im at with my life, but sometimes it feels like tumblrs convos about health and weight make me feel equally bad if not worse than like, instagram fitness influencer shit.

#i can't really explain it so don't ask me to but i feel like there are two very Opposite ends of a spectrum here #in terms of 'you can't actually do anything about your health and appearance you just have to live with what you have' #and 'you are in complete control of everything your body does and if you just drink enough smoothies you can be whatever you want!' #and im in the middle with vague 'wish i was an elf with no like gender...signifiers? whatever' feel like both sides hate me #this has been a midday redirection of anger bc im mad at a client and saw a probably innocent post that annoyed me #side note i wish tumblr let you mute specific posts. i don't wanna block someone's whole ass i just wanna not see THAT reblogged by everyone

[smiles-rambles]

Ok I’m just gonna say this but people have every right to make a post on why they don’t like a ship on their own blog

However to me, it’s polite to not tag it as that ship because people don’t want to scroll through that tag and see hate.

If you see something you don’t like, idk, be a grown adult and move on with your life. Block and move on. What is wrong with you people

#smiles rambles #smiles rants #like nothing is worse that going through the miphlink tag or the midlink tag and seeing hate on there #like you want to piss people off? #clearly you do #and it shows that you just wanna start drama #just don’t tag the ships like c’mon #I wanna scroll through my fav ship tags without seeing hate is that too much to ask? #but also you shouldn’t harass anyone for not liking a ship #actually posting anything on their own blog #they have a right to do that #now if they’re posting some messed up crap I’d just block and report and whatever #don’t spread just ignore them they’ll go away #but like #I posted criticisms for totk and MAN people through a hissy fit over all of it #but I have every right to criticize it on my own blog #man people just need to respect opposite opinions #something something critical thinking #whatever

finally tackled the absolute mountain of laundry in various states of cleanliness around my room. now all of it is sorted and put into its respective zones of "away".

#98% of my room being clean with visible floorspace is just finally handling the laundry #i am ashamed and embarrassed that i always have so much dirty laundry #eventually i'll get back to the point i was at when i was the coach of laundry where i'll have like a week's worth of shit to get done #and not a backlog of several months #eventually #and i will be working on not feeling so much shame about the state of my laundry #i don't *like* that i do it but there's nothing inherently immoral about it like the voice of my mother that shouts in my brain thinks #the put away laundry plus the effort i've been making to Make My Bed before sitting in it has helped me feel more settled in the space #so that's good #when i am not as concerned about blocking the various registers in my room i will be in business #(mattress on the floor only fits in one specific corner right by the intake) #(output register is awkwardly directly in the middle of the opposite side of the room which makes arranging the furniture where i'd like it #an interesting endeavor that i'm not super excited in attempting to orchestrate in the future) #i know where i'd *like* things to go #whether or not that'll actually be feasible is another story #also i think i'm going to have to just go through my clothes with the mindset of actually getting rid of things #i threw out a couple pairs of socks because they were worn so thin i'm not sure mending would have fixed the holes #like that that point i'm making a whole new sock and you know what i could do instead? not do that #i also have a lot of Baggage Items i haven't quite gotten around to divesting myself of #(as in the items of clothing have a lot of emotional baggage tied to them that i may or may not be using to negative effect on myself) #lots of old shit lots of things that don't fit lots of things i don't even like actually #but it was free or nearly so and i've just held onto it because free #only a few things are kept because i like wearing them and the texture is nice #so we'll just. go through some stuff and eventually i'll get to the point that even if *all* of my clothes are dirty and on the floor #it doesn't take up my WHOLE goddamn room #that said this has in fact been a problem my whole life and so i don't imagine it's going to be quick or easy to fix lol

"Scripture is sufficient."

Hm. Yup. No one said it wasn't.

"That's why I don't watch X media based on the Bible."

So, I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that you also don't sing any hymns in your church's worship service then, huh? Because, ya know, the Bible has an entire book of songs already, so you don't need any others.

But I'd bet money that's not the case at all. Because we use media other than the Bible to supplement our worship all the time. From visual aids in Sunday School classes down to the décor, they are things we add. And it doesn't make any of them inherently wrong.

Look. I don't care if you, personally, don't like something or not. That's not what this is about. What I have a problem with is you tacking on a "holier than thou" sentiment to a subjective opinion. "Scripture is sufficient." Yes. It is. "I don't like this piece of media because it adds bits" (that don't contradict Scripture). Personal Preference.

And you are allowed to have personal preferences. But you don't need to justify them or belittle other believers in order to say, "I'm not a fan."

So all I can say is this: if you're going to toss out visual media because "scripture is sufficient" then you'd better be prepared to throw out your hymnals, too.

#yes this about someones opinion of the chosen #and lemme tell you the chosen is a lot more biblically sound than a lot of hymns #or do people just not pay attention to the words theyre singing? #'old' doesn't inherently been 'better' #thats a different story though lol #point being it just rubbed me the wrong way #especially considering the chosen specifically has message before the first episode that basically amounts to #'GO READ YOUR BIBLE OKAY' #like they have NEVER claimed to be a replacement for scripture #in fact dallas has said the opposite so many times that it hurts #rubs me the wrong way like an old pastor i had growing up that said you shouldn't script prayers because it makes them less sincere #which is utterly terrible advice btw #another tangent wheeeeeeee lol #anyway heres a fun fact to leave you with: #the chosen can actually make it into countries where the bible is banned because the app is labeled simply as 'entertainment' #so it's not blocked #if it's between the chosen and someone never hearing the gospel otherwise? #yeah i think you guess what i think about that #anyway #*steps off soapbox* #I feel better now lol #the chosen #the chosen tv series #christianity

And there’s still people absolutely denying there was any romantic chemistry in the woods scene between Eddie and Chrissy when it’s literal fact there is because Joe confirmed he purposely acted it as Eddie having romantic interest in Chrissy.

People can deny it all they want but doesn’t change the fact that the romance there isn’t a headcanon, it’s a fact confirmed by Joe himself.

#eddie x chrissy #hellcheer #eddie munson #chrissy cunningham #joe quinn #joseph quinn #i’m sorry I’m on a rant but I was just going for a scroll through the eddie x chrissy tag and I saw multi anti posts #because people still don’t know how to tag properly 😐 #blocking them on sight obviously but it does leave me annoyed because how can you deny facts? #they’re like ‘there’s literally no romantic chemistry there’ like it is a fact #when the facts are literally the opposite because Joe confirmed he played it that way #so how can there not be romantic chemistry there? #unless you’re just calling Joe a shit actor now? #wouldn’t be surprised #if they do that next
