#silently and very fast

[breathetoseethetruth]

I can't even begin to describe just how much Catherynne M. Valente's works make my heart and soul bloom.

Hi Muffin, hope you are well! I would like to ask if you could permit me to translate three of your works, Silently and Very Fast, Between Scylla and Charybdis and Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep into Chinese. I plan to post them on Lofter (a Chinese blog site) - I will link back to your original URL and note you as the author. Your works are so wonderful that deserve more love. I like all your works, hopefully you can continue your unfinished work someday, but of course only if you want to.

So long as you link back to the original and not me as an author I am cool. Glad you liked the fics!

Idk it's weird because when discussing discrimination against trans men specifically, people tend to bring up like... being told men are gross or that you're betraying the feminist cause or something. And while those are shitty and mean-spirited things to say to somebody, what I would actually identify as a kind of specific systemic form of discrimination is the exclusion of transgender men from studies and surveys, and the relative ease with which people simply forget that we exist. Erasure, basically. Which honestly, seemed to be discussed more before the advent of whatever the current movement around trans men's struggles is called now, because there wasn't a metric fuckload of incomprehensible discourse surrounding it.

Most other things that seem to come up, while very real and very shitty, are not unique to us per se, though I do feel we are often left out of the conversation because it's assumed that they won't apply to us (ex domestic violence, fear of sexual assault, fear of being seen as a predator, accusation of transitioning for fetishistic purposes, assumption that we are transitioning to escape being gay, being denied access to fertility procedures without detransitioning, on and on and on). Which is also annoying.

I just find myself irritated by the current movement around trans men's experiences because there's some really pervasive problems in there that I do feel are systemic and underaddressed, mixed in with some stuff that's a problem but better addressed by putting one's energy into existing movements, mixed in with bonkers intercommunity drama that only matters if you're only friends with other queer people in an accepting area.

#if you find this stance objectionable PLEASE message me and don't block or silently seethe at me. please. #because i genuinely find this interesting and i think it's a shame that it seemed to devolve into pointless infighting so fast #like i would love it if somebody wrote an up to date book about feminism and trans men because of this. or at least made a good reading list #my investment in this is primarily because i am A. a feminist B. often perceived as a woman and C. a trans man myself #and i feel that there is a profound difference between how i experience misogyny and how cis female friends do #and has been pretty much since i got old enough for my peers to consciously express sexism #and i would very much like it if somebody smarter than me put that into words #like to be clear there's not really a ' side ' i would pick on this #other than like transmisogyny is a huge problem and most people are unwittingly transmisogynistic #and that trans men deal with a lot of bullshit wrt other people's baggage about maleness and are largely invisibles to many cis people

I'll believe this till the day I die: Zabuza is a great manipulator on the social/political scale. We have him saying "oh yeah. This exam was brutal and terrible. Can you imagine being a child having to kill their own friends?" and then, immediately after, Kakashi goes "then this random kid no one knew from adam invaded a class that wasn't his own killed a whole lot of people earned himself a shinobi rank a fearsome reputation and stopped this horrific practice. Isn't that kid scary and bloodthirsty?" like he didn't just reafirm that Zabuza did not, in fact, kill his own friends. He killed strangers he didn't care about, something every shinobi does on the regular.

And he did this very normal thing in such a way that it seemed particularly cruel while also achieving a positive change. But since the change was carried out by other people his reputation took no hits. He was not considered weak nor a rebel of any kind. And while this change might not have been his objective, I'm sure he took it as a nice plus.

So he spared his own feelings, which was the exact opposite of the exam's objective, and got a nice amount of perks from it without taking any kind of serious backlash. And he did that in the place that prided itself on being the bloodiest place around.

So yeah

#and I don't find that in fics all that often #Zabuza seems to be generally regarded as a brute #when he's actually smart #and competent beyond just brute force #hell #the thing we're told he's THE BEST at is actually very subtle work #he's supposed to be good at killing people fast and silent #that doesn't stop being true just because kishimoto wanted flashy fights #I want competent and subtle and smart Zabuza goddamnit #I hate kishimoto so much #Naruto #zabuza momochi

my teath hurt (got new thicker braces wire) but i dont want to take pain meds even thouu it will probably not affect my blood tests. they r just sore and its annoying but i cant eat anything anyway (fasting for blood test) so it will be fine. love u everyone good night ♥︎

#astr.txt #I have soft cereal bar in my bag to eat afterwards #even thou the clinic is literally like not even 10 minutes from home lol #i could walk there if it was nice out actually but its a little cold and very wet #silent hill type fog everywherrrre its supposed to linger a while. warm and wet yucky #oh.plus its probably not good to walk somewhere if you havent eaten. in a long time #Strong note to myself because i love altoids but i am fasting !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

somewhere on this blog i pointed out that dice and kuukou have both said they’d die for their team (even if the vibe on their statements varied lol) and i think saburo’s equivalent of that would be requiem actually?? so now i’m once again wondering about the themes of self sacrifice between dice and kuukou lmao

#vee queued to fill the void #actually this is just me wondering about kuukou lol #like saburo’s requiem has him clearly saying he’s dying in order to better himself and that’s what his sacrifice meant to him #dice’s it comes down to betting it ALL for his posse and he’s said this in song iirc and in drama track #*shakes kuukou* WHERE IS YOURS COMING FROM??????? #ITS FAMILY YOU DO ANYTHING FOR FAMILY I GET THAT BUT WHY???????????????? #like i LOVE how fast kuukou attaches himself onto people the moment he decides they’re important to him!!!!!! i love that loyalty!!!!!!!! #it’s just always been wild to me that’s the lengths he’ll go for someone so soon into their relationship????? #ichiro silently sussing out kuukou in the unami chapter and the slow progression of their relationship is kinda the norm actually???? #even with ichiro’s trust issues lol???? #yet kuukou gets smacked around a little bit and decides he’ll go to hell and back with ichiro like???? #am i seeing a very weird brand of overly attached issues????? surely not lmao????

playing ocarina of time is just making me realize how few original ideas the rest of the 3d zeldas have. i was like "wow the day/night cycle in twilight princess is so cool i bet that was new technology in 2006" and then i played oot. which did the same thing in 1998

#the oot day/night cycle is really fast and idk if it was a technology limitation or artistic choice #the legend of zelda #ocarina of time #twilight princess #it's also kind of funny to me that the early silent hill/resident evil games had very small loaded areas #while oot has the giant hyrule field (which is very empty but still)

I’m still surprised you don’t pull more people tbh you seem very endearing and fun to be around

The thing is I tend to be a bit too much or a bit too little, and same here, you seem to have such a cosy vibe around you I'm surprised you dont pull more either.

#Me 🤝 you #Being utterly bitchless :') #Froggi! #No but fr you seem like a very nice. Sort if calming and generally wonderful person to be around #I tend to switch between hyperactive loud and very very fast ti dead silent and slow as a snail and people find that off #Putting and tbf I would too

NaClYoHo Days 23 & 24

Day 23

usual daily dishes

second doctors appointment this week

sent trial return to work forms to doctor for signing/review

called sister to check in

put in an order to take advantage of the ordinary's slowvember sale

updated Christmas shopping/budget list

Today (day 24)

usual daily dishes, laundry

threw away some expired food

threw away dead table flowers

wiped bathroom counter

moved meat from freezer to fridge so I can try to cook dinner tomorrow

I haven't felt too much more sucky than normal the last couple days, but in addition to thyroid problems and whatever undiagnosed dysautonomic problem I'm having, I also have you-feel-shitty-disease (ME/CFS), so my normal "feeling normal" is already pretty sucky. If you feel 100% normally and drop to 30%, you feel it! But if you feel 35% normally and drop to 30%, maybe it doesn't impact you as much? idk

Did lots of sleeping and resting yesterday and today, and will hopefully perk up back to normal next week to finish the month strong.

#naclyoho #salty pirate month #disabled and doing my best #national clean your home month #go get vaccinated if you can! #chronic fatigue syndrome by beloathed #after reviewing the numbers it seems that I get isolated diastolic hypertension in the range of 110!!! when I stand still. YIKES #systolic numbers are still normal to low tho #so its very strange. #upon seeing those diastolic numbers I'm interested to see what my CT scan shows when we get that far #isolated diastolic HTN is associated with higher risk of stroke #and my symptoms on the day I fainted and the next month of so after were not FAST-style stroke symptoms. but they were similar #so maybe I had a silent stroke? only the CT scan will tell #either way I'm glad that the BP numbers show something definitively off

🌸｡*ﾟ+. I'm thinking I'm gonna start doing things a little differently in regards to my queue. I'll keep answered asks, memes, and random aesthetic posts in there, but as for thread replies, I think I'm gonna post them as they're done..? Just so people aren't waiting too long anymore when I finally get around to replying.

Unless people would prefer I keep queueing their replies (for staggering drafts-- I know some people prefer slower replies!), so just let me know if you'd prefer me posting them immediately or if you want yours to continue to be queued!

#MUN SPEAKING 🌸 ᴬ ʷᵉᵃᵛᵉʳ ᵒᶠ ᵗᵃˡᵉˢ; ᴾᵃⁱⁿᵗᵉʳ ᵒᶠ ˢᵗᵃʳˢ #In the long run... I am still not fast LMFAO so please don't expect every reply to start popping out like daisies #because I am still very selective with what I feel like doing at any given moment and sometimes one thread #comes to me faster than another. And sometimes??? I just don't feel like writing replies and will go silent!! #So... this is my compromise when it comes to having people wait for whatever replies I DO have done at any given moment #asks memes and whatnot are still gonna be queued though since they're more filler than anything ✨ #Still at the front desk waiting for the last few people to show up and some crew but after I get to sit down #I'll be working on replies and whatnot 🌸 well. Doing my best to at least! Hope everyone has a lovely night/day~

Can't believe people are still reblogging my post about the Kazui voting situation and the "unforgiveness shrine" even though it's kind of outdated now... like this is by far the post I've made that has gotten the most notes (almost 300 as of today) and it's so embarrassing for me because that was like my third? fourth? original post on tumblr and one in which I was being pretty negative and bummed out, but of course it had to become my most popular post... it's not that surprising seeing the content or even the goal of the post (informing the English speaking part of the milgram fandom of the voting situation) that it has been reblogged a lot (and by rather big accounts too), but every time I see "x like/reblogged your post" and it's this one I'm like "noooo stooop this is oooold, why would you do thaaaat" and I cringe a little inside because I feel so embarrassed for some reason

#i have absolutely no ill will towards those who interact with this post even now of course #it's just that i remember feeling very overwhelmed when it gained a lot of attention last month #i was happy to share the info on here but i was and still am so new to tumblr and the milgram fandom (i was just a silent observer before) #that i felt a kind of imposter syndrome of sort? idk it was weird #anyway I'm glad the voting issue seems to have died down now (at least kazui's vote is going back up so it's a good sign) #because amane's inno vote is already dropping fast enough we don't need a guilty shrine on top of things

My chem lab partner and i started giggling about the glitch in the software we're writing our report on and we were acting like it was the funniest thing in the world. i didn't realise how much i missed being able to laugh so freely around people at uni until today like wow . i am always trying so hard to give off a certain image and be perceived in a specific way and also i miss my friends and im lonely

#teehee #also i made a chemistry joke about being gay and then came out very casually to her bc shes nice and i wanted to #also it's kinda annoying to be like . [gay silently] without ever being able to say stupid shit out loud bc it makes me feel like im hiding #like . god #i jjst want to be silly i need afag friend group #i think she might be bisexual or something she gives that vibe but she didn't say anything bc my joke was so casual we moved on #so fast from that #z.post

Even in the half light, it was an enormously articulate soulmark, all blue grey spread wings and golden breast, a stripe of white slashing over the birds eye, not, Jason noted, bitterly, unlike the stupid but necessary domino Dick was now, also, prying off.   Jason did not need to see this.   Didn’t even need to be in this fucking city, actually, and-   And Dick’s soulmate was making a face so furious Dick was wilting already, shoulders rising defensively.   She reached out, and instead of every beautiful, terrible, cliche probably running through Dick’s head, placed the eskrima in his outstretched hand instead of taking it. Exhaled, loud, before gently curling his unmoving fingers around the weapon.   “Not you,” she said, quiet, “I’m sorry.”   Bonds were known in touch, always. Dick smiled at her anyway, like the peacemaking tragedy he seemed determined to be.   It was not unlike watching a slow motion car wreck.   Jason stepped forward, bone white garden gravel crunching under his boots. “We’re looking for the Warden of New York.”   Chin still jutted angry, tiny not-soulmate tilted back her head to meet his eyes, and just like that, Jason knew.

#hi babes thank you for giving my nonsense love an absolute excuse #Migration Patterns of Turdidae #I haven't written most of a story so fast since Tidal #and this precisely of the same furious flavor actually #magical fusion! #soulmate acquisition! #an incredible amount of swearing! #Dick eating sugar cubes and silently going: what the fuck what the fuck seriously what the fuck- #THATS OUR BOYS #anyway gimme three days and this will be out in the world #and then back to regularly scheduled shenanigans of very different fics #snippet snippet snippet
