#I’m asking on insta too

[casukaga]

Casu what does your name mean? What is the origin? I’ve been pondering this for many moons and I cannot ponder any longer so I must ask what does it mean? 

HAHA, yeah yeah!

the first time i came up with the name was when i was in middle school like a decade ago. i was hyperfixating on vocaloid back then, and in orchestra class, i was just thinking of some random usernames i could use in the future. i went by a different alias / username online back then, but i was coming up with new ones for fun. i was making alliterations using vocaloid names, so like— miraculously miku, marvelously meiko, shion shenanigans, stuff of the like. and one of them i thought up was “casually kagamine,” and i liked this one a lot (as the kagamine twins were my favorite vocaloids).

when i started instagram in 2017, it was the first time i decided to use a different username, and i used that one: casually.kagamine. it became the new username that i’d use on other sites, and sometimes i shortened it to casukaga to fit a character limit, or just because it was convenient.

i changed my online alias to casu in 2018, bc it fit with that username.

by 2021, i was using casukaga everywhere else, and instagram was the only instance i was using casually.kagamine — so i changed it to match. so now i am just casukaga everywhere.

so casu is short for “casually,” casukaga was short for “casually kagamine” ❤️

#changing my insta to casukaga was also spurred bc of smth else but i’m too lazy to type that out rn lmao #casu asks

🔥 for whatever's been bugging you lately

Oh, boy. I'm about to touch on a topic I have ranted about extensively in private spaces. Only now I'm going to make my opinion public because I feel like I need to take a stand.

"Across media fandoms, so many fans refuse to stay in their lane and it leads to a lot of unnecessary trouble."

Allow me to explain.

Perhaps I'm only seeing the loudest of the vocal minority, but this behavior is grating to me. In general I come to my fan spaces to have fun, discuss media with others who've viewed it, and relax after taking care of my real life responsibilities.

I've seen shipping wars since my earliest days in fandom, and those have not died down in the slightest. In some ways, they've actually gotten worse, because people bring in purity culture and real life politics where I feel like they don't belong. (People who act like it's a moral duty to ship their rare pair instead of a more popular ship, as an example.)

This mentality of only having the most "morally correct" opinions on a piece of media goes beyond shipping too, when it comes to discussing individual characters or the (perceived) message of the media overall. Who and what is "problematic" is a dominating theme in many fan discussions on this website and others. There's this idea that a person's taste in media, characters, and even ships gives any indication of their real life morality. When really, most people (if not all) I've met who are into the darker, tragic and more dramatic themes in media are just interested in that part of storytelling and would never condone acts like murder, genocide or abuse in real life.

On the other side of the coin, there are other fans who try and label what is and isn't "cringe." I've seen them take aim at self-shippers, OC x Canon shippers, or even themes within the media itself that they've deemed "cliched" or "predictable." There's this smugness that comes with pointing out flaws CinemaSins style. It's very elitist in its way and to me translates to "I see what you don't, Sheeple!"

I'm sure there are other details of annoying fandom behavior that I have left out, but these are the main ideas to me.

It all comes down to one thing.

"When people dislike something, they turn around and make it everybody else's problem."

This is in spite of the widely available blacklisting tools and block button that are very easy to use to curate one's Tumblr experience. (I cannot speak for other websites and how easy or difficult it is to curate one's feed there, but I imagine there is something similar to Tumblr's system.)

Instead of accepting that a ship, piece of media, OC, or even an entire user's feed isn't their cup of tea and moving on, people have to say something rude about it.

And it just seems like a waste of time and energy. I think it would be better spent with things that actually spark joy.

All in all I feel like I’m getting too old for this sort of thing. Or maybe since I have more life experience, I’m more aware of what I want and what I’m better off without. Having to balance work and home life will do that. I’ll keep on sharing my thoughts with people who I feel I can truly be myself around. I hope everybody has at least one person, if not a few people like that. Because I think everyone should have a chance to be happy, in fan spaces and elsewhere.

#Lynn speaks #personal #fandom woes #fandom wank #purity culture #elitist culture #I really am too old for all this #no fandoms named #it’s ALL of them #but I blacklist block and curate til the cows come home #Sometimes I gotta pause and ask if I’m being fair #but most of the time my instincts are right and I insta block bad vibes

to the beautiful girl dressed as juliet from the halloween party two days ago: i am still thinking about you

#she was crazy beautiful and we danced for so long #she was a friend’s friend so at one point we went to sit together with everyone else and there weren’t enough chairs #so she pulled me onto her lap and when i told her to be careful cause i’m heavy #she said not to worry cause she works out so she can handle hot women????!!!! whjsgjajakshs #should have kissed her then and there but we literally had just sat down in the middle of all of our friends so i thought later #and at one point i think before that she kighted me with a water bottle?? i can’t remember why but i kneeled in front of her #so she knighted me and then gave me a kiss on the forehead and then one on each cheek #should have kissed her then too but i think we did the knight thing as a demonstration to ppl so again all of our friends were paying atten #anyway after both the lap the knighting and dancing very closely for a while i took her somewhere else #like outside so i could find an excuse to kiss her #but there were other couples there and everyone was asked to get back inside #so we did and then we sat down somewhere #we were chatting and then she said something about the guy who was flirting with her and how she wasn’t sure she should kiss him #because (here i don’t remember exactly) something about her ex boyfriend and how that guy wasn’t sober #so after that i was like wait am i sober enough so i realized i was a little too drunk and didn't try anything again #anyway we continued to dance and flirt but nothing more #and then she left and all i could think of please can i see you again #cause i would really like to kiss you and now i'm still thinking about her #but i don’t use insta and even if i did i prob wouldn’t flirt with her via insta cause i'm too chicken #but if i don’t use insta how can i see her again since i don't see our mutual friend that frequently #ou mutual friend is my high school friend and her middle school friend #my high school friend group is planning to get together in like a month and a half ( we have to plan in advance lol) #so i might ask about her then 💀💀💀 #might be a little pathetic to ask about someone you met once after 1 month and a half but honestly i really did like her a lot #and i AM a little pathetic so… #also just to be clear this is not the girl i kissed in the sonic costume lol i was dressed as wednesday addams and didn’t kiss her :( #also no hate to the girl i kissed in the sonic costume she was cute but juliette girl was so... asdjlkfsçad #my post

#so I dmed a small business on insta a basic question about their box and I think they interpreted it as bitchy because the didn’t reply to #my second message and then closed the preorder they had open and were like sorry it’s gone now but the vibe was definitely in a fuck you way #like I’d already bought I just wanted to check something about it and it definitely seems like they shut them off like to spite me asking #them something that wasn’t covered on their insta or their website #god I’m too fucking autistic for this shit I swear I’m going to stop fucking buying shit from certain places like they’re soooo dickish for #the slightest thing like I just asked if the purchase got me early access to another sale that was it

I give you my second sideblog 👉🏻👈🏼

You will now never escape me from being in your notes. First I was always in your notes on your Suga side blog (I still am). Then you gave me the link to your Twitter and I’m always in those notes bcs you retweet a lot of dope art and shit. And now we are here.

You already found my xeed sideblog and that’s my only other blog. I’m way too lazy and dysfunctional to keep with more than that.

#asks #you cannot escape me now. friendship is necessary. #I have insta too but I use that purely to look at idols. #and I posted shit back in 2018 (I went to a palaye royale concert) and I hate my face so. #and yeah I know asks can be answered privately. I’m lazy. like mega lazy okay.

[a-spark-inside]
