It’s not lost on me that when someone talks about how “Beyoncé is overrated” or that she’s “not that talented” I’m supposed to respect other people’s music opinions, but if I say Taylor Swift’s music isn’t my style or I don’t care for her that much it’s like I said the most heinous thing in the world and I don’t support other women.

#if you think both are overrated don’t interact because your opinion is useless and has nothing to do with what I’m saying #misogynoir #I’m kinda sick of it tbh #like if I’m asked what music I like I get the rudest response but if I try to be delicate expressing what I don’t like #I might as well have kicked a puppy or something #white feminism #Beyoncé #Beyoncé’s allowed to be raked through the mud because she dared to be a successful black woman but we must protect Taylor at all costs 🙄 #It's worse bc I'm a black woman and it looks like I'm the bad guy here #Yes I acknowledge Taylor's accomplishments but I also acknowledge the fact that she tends to use feminism when it's convenient

Yes, Ren genuinely thinks cramming his wolf ears under that hat will distract people from his sharp canines, his tendency to tell Zedaph what to do, and his bad habit of barking at moving objects.

Yes, Doc genuinely thinks hanging an old rag over his face and wearing those ancient spectacles with no lenses will help distract people from... well, everything.

Yes, they're both delusional.

Shigure's relationship with Kyo drives me crazy. he doesn't hate Kyo in the slightest - in fact, he pities Kyo, and not in the condescending "oh you poor little boy, cursed to be a horrible, disgusting monster" sort of way that everyone else does. Shigure pities Kyo for the reason he should be pitied: he's just a kid caught up in a system so inhumane it can't possibly be survived without some seriously unhealthy coping mechanisms.

and it drives me crazy because - listen, Shigure is the only zodiac member who's emotionally aware enough to see the other zodiac members as exactly what they are. he knows Yuki is a severely traumatized kid who projects all of his self-hatred on a single convenient target. he knows Akito is really a scared little girl with a raging god complex (literally) and no concept of a healthy relationship. and he knows Kyo is a regular-ass human being who doesn't deserve to be locked up for the rest of his life just because some arbitrary system says so. he KNOWS it's stupid. he KNOWS it's ridiculous and unfair. and he has to share a house with Kyo knowing that Kyo is living with a sword over his head, hating himself and hating others in perfect tandem because he has no other way of coping with the insane amounts of negativity he's had to deal with his entire life.

but the thing about Shigure is that he KNOWS all of this, and the same time he doesn't really CARE. he feels sorry for Kyo, but an apathetic sort of pity, a disinterested "this is how it is. such a shame." sort of pity. in some ways he's worse than the other zodiacs because he DOES see Kyo as a person, someone he likes being around even, but he still considers Kyo below his attention because all his focus is on Akito and breaking the curse. and sure, once the curse is broken Kyo will theoretically be set free with the rest of them, but that's more of a coincidental side effect than anything. despite being in a much more dangerous and precarious mental space AND comfortably in Shigure's reach, Kyo is about as much a priority for Shigure as Ritsu or Momiji.

and it drives me CRAZY because i think Shigure does start actively caring about Kyo as the series goes on, but it's hard to tell when that happens and to what extent. when Kazuma told Shigure he planned to reveal Kyo's true form and Shigure said he was going too far - whose sake was it for? was Shigure trying to protect Kyo, who would be hideously traumatized/emotionally scarred by such a cruel betrayal? was he trying to protect Kyo and Tohru's relationship, which was still formulating and might, under such severe testing, ultimately end up damaged beyond repair? was he only trying to protect Tohru, who wasn't ready to be burdened by such a horrible aspect of the curse so soon, or perhaps simply didn't deserve it? or was it all for the sake of himself, trying to protect his still-forming plans of using Tohru's positive effect on the Sohmas to break the curse?

Shigure cares about Kyo, but they're not close and Kyo clearly isn't a priority. he treats Kyo like a person - offering him genuine advice, teasing him like he teases anyone else, even speaking up on his behalf once or twice - and yet he's too entrenched in the long game to spare much active interest in Kyo. for a very long time, he doesn't care about Kyo the way he cares about Yuki or Tohru, and it's never made clear when exactly that changed. and the thing that gets me about this whole situation is that right from the start, Shigure is in a position where he can meet Kyo at his level - as equals, just one human being to another - but he doesn't, because Shigure is a chessmaster, Shigure is someone who observes and calculates, Shigure never steps in unless one of his chess pieces makes a wrong move and he absolutely has to.

it drives me crazy. Shigure drives me crazy. this series drives me so so crazy.

#i think my point here was “shigure sees kyo as an actual human being but still treats him badly” #which is kind of the point of shigure - it's why he's such a gray character #he plays with people's lives like they're toys #but this post actually originated from the realization that shigure doesn't hate kyo in the slightest #(honestly i don't think the majority of the zodiac actually *dislikes* kyo. i think they're just too used to dehumanizing him) #and i was like “okay. so how *does* shigure view kyo?” #and then i thought about it more and went progressively more insane #tbf i think shigure knew he was being immoral in the way he treated kyo #he's incredibly self-aware and knows exactly what he's doing #he just chooses to do it anyway. that's why he calls himself “despicable” #i think the fact that kyo clearly suspects shigure has something more going on under the surface probably didn't help either #it's a very interesting sort of complex #anyway. them #fruits basket #shigure sohma #kyo sohma #analysis #edited for your convenience #(<-capitalized all the names bc it was driving me up the wall)

I really really need a reduction but I'm scared my boobs will be ugly and it will make my dysphoria worse. Idk why I'm telling you this but nobody really seems to understand :/

no, bc I COMPLETELY understand. something that stressed me out more than the money was the fear that I'd do all this work to get the surgery, and then my tits would look like dogshit. that feeling SPIKED again when I saw that first surgeon, who told me my tits sucked rather than telling me he didn't feel capable of performing a reduction on someone with Actually Big Tits. (his patient gallery was full of C-cups for the "before" photos.) this is a real fear, bc some surgeons are just garbage. they don't care about the aesthetics of breast reductions. this doesn't have to be the case at all, there are lots of surgeons who actually care about helping you and getting you a result that's lighter/smaller AND still looks like a boob. you'll need to commit to The Search, looking through patient galleries to see if they operate on people who look like you. but you Will find a surgeon with results you like, who's worked on breasts that are similar to yours, and then the fear will go away!!

#the upside of this fear is that it's not something that can sneak up on you- having a bad reduction result #it can't hit you out of nowhere. you aren't gonna trip and fall onto the surgical table #of a surgeon who isn't qualified to perform aesthetically pleasing breast reductions #you can't be tricked here. you look at the photos and then you set up the consult #and talk to the surgeon and you ask about what results you can expect #and it's all going to be given straight to you. if your surgeon doesn't do good work then it'll be apparent. #ppl like to be such dicks about this bc it is a surgery that's about pain and convenience First. so it's like oh why are you so #bent outta shape about the way they look?? oh only bc I'm a human person. and I don't want to feel bad. #you're allowed to be picky about your result and about your surgeon #sergle answers

Thinking about River affectionately calling the Doctor her “madman in a box” only after he's called her his “bespoke psychopath,” and vice versa. They each were called these words by the other before ever using them to describe the other.

Thinking about the way they defy reality for each other. How modern psychiatry elevates objective reality to gatekeep full participation in society, yet they shatter objective reality with love — “I can’t let you die without knowing that you are loved.” and “You are always here to me and I always listen and I can always see you.”

Thinking about “What's the mad fool talking about now?” and how Gallifrey ostracizes those labelled mad, going so far as to see it as failure in children. Thinking about “A child is not a weapon!” “Give us time.” and how Kovarian equates psychopath with weapon as a tool of dehumanization and control.

Thinking about the way the psychiatric-industrial complex inflicts violence upon those who deviate from psychosocial norms. How their relationship was born in violence, but of madness — not madness in a post-Enlightenment framework of opposition to Reason, but madness as radical compassion that doesn’t demand so-called rationality — “Every time you've asked, I have been there.”

Thinking about how neither of them chose “psychopath” or “madman,” but they both own those words as instruments in their own agency.

#river song #eleventh doctor #twelfth doctor #antipsychiatry #madpunk #yowzah #doctor who #bc I've seen the discourse on whether river is ‘actually’ a psychopath heres your regular reminder that psychopath is NOT a medical term #it's madman but with a lack-of-empathy slant. #(eleventh) doctor is neurodivergent tag #saneism #ableism #reclaimed language #mental health #neuropunk #mad liberation #words by seaweed #disclaimer: not a philsopher. can u tell I was a graphic design major w an incidental personal investment in psychotic ppl rights #anyway when I say ‘madness as radical compassion’ I don’t mean that madness creates compassion; but that this position #where participation in modern personhood is violently denied+ autonomy stripped due to weaponizing mental health interests (my river song) #elicits a different framework of compassion— one doesn't have to make sense or ‘fit’ into a convenient Narrative for compassion #the fact that they passing laws to make conservatorships easier to acquire in several states makes me shriek when I think sometimes #so uh tune in next time for me drowning my sorrows in my canon psychotic eleventh doctor evidence posts

I think that everyone who puts together a Good Omens con with in-person elements, and doesn't include vigorous mitigation options including but not limited to a fully enforced mask mandate, should pay every medically-vulnerable member of the fandom five bucks.

Inclusion is hard and inconvenient and you don't wanna do it. I get it. We're being left behind so you can have more fun. But if you're not gonna look me right in the eyes (metaphorically) and tell me "you are not worth the bother to include", then you could at least buy me a goddamn consolation coffee. (Or send five bucks to your local food pantry in my name, whatever. But other excludees might still want the coffee.)

(I'd be very interested in seeing the science which leads to the conclusion that covid will be over by such and such date, thus rendering my concerns obsolete. Otherwise, completely skipping over any kind of planning almost feels like a gamble which you have decided is worth it because it's not like you lose anything if your medically-vulnerable fellow fans end up excluded from all your super awesome fun in-person events.)

#ineffablefool original post #negativity #I'm so tired of being left behind you guys #I'm so tired of your convenience being worth more than my safety #this community could do better if it chose! there are not evil outside forces preventing masks from adhering to faces! #it's not worth it for us to hold ourselves to any kind of accessibility standards here. so we Won't. that's all. #in conclusion I am tired and agonizingly disappointed in this so-called community. #also almost forgot to tag for #covid mention

Girl is the daughter to some famous guy and he loves her so so so so so so much and doesn't want her to be involved in fame and scandals. So he hires a bodyguard for her so that she can have some freedom and also NOT be seen with him. And bodyguard is just super chill with the man's gushing and doesn't originally try super hard to befriend the girl. It's a job and he just needs her safe and outta the spotlight.

It's going pretty well and is all fine until his friend shows up. Who looks really angy. And glares a lot. So she assumes this friend is just a punk and the bodyguard is like "oh he's nice. he just looks like that when he's nervous."

So when the bodyguard is like "ok i gotta go talk with your dad meaning I can't walk with you to school but I got permission to let my friend walk with you" and she's like okay. I understand. I'm resigned to my fate of never being independent. And then when the guy is like "I need proof or your dad will kill me" and she agrees, HE BEAMS BECAUSE HE GETS TO LIVE ANOTHER DAY. And he shows her the picture and is like "before I send it, this okay with you?" and she nods. She's never seen him smile like that. Huh.

And now the girl has her very loving dad, her loving mom, her protective and kind bodyguard and his weird (boy)friend. And so she has two separate groups of people that love her and she's really happy.

#my bodyguard isnt my dad #since her classmates never see her dad and only see her with the bg they just are like #your dad is really protective huh and shes like oh yeah 100% not know the misunderstanding #and then later her classmates ask her if her dads gay and shes like no??? and doesnt know what else to say #because her dad loves her mom its a really happy married couple wtf #they dont even KNOW her dad ???? #then one is like oh yeah i saw that pink haired guy with him again tho they were buying dinner from a convenience store #and shes like OH YOU MEAN HIM no oh no thats.................. hes more like an uncle ? #and the classmates are like OH OK COOL and then it drops cause they dont care about a gay uncle #the gay dad is the drama topic #so she informs her bg that her classmates think hes gay and the two hear cackling from another room #and bg has to be like OH SHUT IT THIS IS YOUR FAULT BY THE WAY YOURE INVOLVED HERE BY BEING MY FAKE BF #and hes like WOW NOT THE FIRST TIME IVE BEEN ACCUSED OF THIS

hm. i feel like I'm not unhinged enough for the past few days. here's my old-but-reworked omegaverse headcanon tier list.

#re zero #i actually was gonna look for my queer headcanon tier list but then i realised I'm bored. so. #putting my omegaverse scholar glasses on #firstly“pretends” doesnt really apply to crusch and felix. they are destroying these secondary genders with hammers i can tell you that muc #todd is an omega. fear about your Secret Identity being discovered.... classic omega archetype. #that adds to the conflict with subaru #also. subaru. raised in a shadow of his perfect alpha dad. riddled with complexes as a result. #similar deal with heinkel i think. #vincent as an asexual alpha...... #emilia's alpha identity is scrutinized and stigmatized by society because satella also was an alpha #julius is the most beautiful beta subaru has ever seen. really out here slaying these stereotypes left and right #reinhard is a perfect alpha with a duty to continue the blood line of sword saints #regulus is deeply self-conscious about being an omega. stopping all bodily processes? seems very convenient #i actually haven't thought about what would their smells be like yet. hm. my mistake. #i think subaru would smell like a wet asphalt or gasoline or something else from earth and everybody would be like hey what a fuck is that #rem hates the smell of gasoline 😔😔😔 #emiilia smells like frost. easy. traumatising. #julius smells like old books... or maybe steel #reinhard has a divine protection of perfect smell... every person who smells him smells their favourite scent #meanwhile reinhard adds that to his already long list with reasons for identity crisis #regulus probably smells like vanilla lmao
