#LARP breed

[despazito]

it's so funny how there's a dog breed literally called the "Native American Indian Dog" so you're like wow i wanna learn more about indigenous dogs so you google them and turns out they were created by some guy in 1986 by throwing together random wolfy looking non-native breeds and then their name was literally trademarked by a woman named Karen

#her kennel is called majestic view dfgdgfg #LARP breed #the jokes make themselves #i'd be lying if i said they werent handsome tho

medieval peasant to another as they watch the knights and guards mingle:

"Imagine.. some millions of years from now.. there would be children and adults alike, still dressing up in suits of armor, crafted finely or with little care. running around on their hobby horse or perhaps a proper stallion decorated to the reigns. but it is all for nought in serious role, but for play and fun. pretending to be like they are now before us. How nice to imagine that our future generations would be so prosperous to reminisce and pay homage to us."

"I thought I told you to stop drinking the stable water."

#ghostie mumbles #do you think there was ever a person back in medieval times who had such a thought? #jokingly thinking 'what if people dressed up as us in the future and played and had fun pretending to be us?' #cuz idk man. if we think of the future and how people may perceive us then.. #and if I know anything of human nature..... it's all same. someone back then must have had a similar thought at least just once #anyways I'm looking up some medieval clothing stuff and saw some larping armor and I am amazed that these people-- #--would go through all the trouble to be as authentic as possible. they're a whole different breed (positive) #the armor slapped. it looked SO GOOD.

I hate it when some people social 8s feel entitled to your loyalty and obedience because they have simply decided that they are your protector and defender regardless of what you have to say about it.

Sometimes said people social 8s do genuinely good things for you. Sometimes they really do defend and protect you. I mean, the the theme of social 8s barging into your life and do-gooding for you without your consent is always the same... but sometimes you fall for it because you're like "meh this is alright, she's being helpful" also I can tell shes a psychotic madwoman and I can't be bothered dealing with the tantrum she will throw if I try to set any boundaries at all.

HOWEVER had you known why the social 8 was doing these favors for you -- so that they could hold it over your head later and use it to make you do horrible things, including but not limited to: turning away from people you love because they said so, being their emotional or physical punching bag, having sex with them -- you never would have let them do anything good for you at all.

You would have rather suffered and died at the hands of all the things they "protected" you from, actually. That's how cruel and disgusting these people are.

Yes such people exist. They are real. They are social 8s. They embody everything you hate about 2s with none of the positives.

#Soc 8 #Social 8 #enneagram 8 #Some soc 8s have made really uncalled for over the top displays of Protecting me that made me uncomfortable and didn't actually do shit #To protect me #in fact sometimes there was nothing to protect me from #They were just playing the 2 game where they wanted to make me owe them love and loyalty so they imagined an enemy for me and larped #When soc 8s play the 2 game it is 100x times more transparent and ridiculous and dramatic #And terrifying #Fuck social 8s #worst breed of people #By the way many feminists follow the soc 8 pattern in the way they behave towards women as a whole #Its disgusting #Oh these sort of 8s always curse 9s as well they're like YOU HAVE NO BOUNDARIES!!!111 #boundaries are a two way street #If you want people to set boundaries with you (and you don't because you're an entitled psycho) you have to create an environment #Where doing so is safe and invited. not exhausting and terrifying #Don't exhaust urself helping people without their consent it's literally this simple #But if the soc 8s looked deep down they'd see that their defense protection and help is not about helping people at all #Helping People tm is their method of raping and pillaging #Literally #complain Abt this post being mean all you want #If you experienced it you know.

In defense of a "Wicked Stepmother":

Sarah's Stepmother in "Labyrinth", named Irene in tie-in media, only gets about a minute of screen time before Sarah rushes off to her room in a soaked snit. Fanfic writers usually turn her into an evil bitch and even the manga sequel, "Return to Labyrinth", has her cold and abusive to Toby, her biological child. But here's the thing...

I think Sarah's mother gets a bum rap.

Dressing nicely for an evening out and having mild conflict with a teenager does not a Lady Tremaine make. And as someone who actually lived with a narcissistic, manipulative, emotionally abusive stepfather, I can tell you that Irene doesn't even come close to wicked step parent territory.

Backstory first. It's never spoken of in the film, but clues in Sarah's room tell us that her real mother is a stage actress who abandoned her and her father for another actor. Sarah idolizes her mother and tries to emulate her with play acting. Sarah's father met and married Irene sometime after Linda ran off, and Sarah, who thinks her mom walks on water, resents the hell out of Irene for taking her place. A place that Linda abandoned for another man.

She couldn't help it. He looked like David Bowie.

Let's look at her first alledged transgression. She won't let Merlin into the house. Instead she orders him into the garage. Heartless, we assume because we all love dogs and only the most soulless of monsters don't. But slow down. She didn't leave him out in the rain. She put him in the garage. Furthermore, Merlin is an Old English Sheepdog. Is he a nice dog? Sure, but he's also a breed that's notorious for being high maintenance and hard to keep clean and right now he's soaking wet and filthy. Irene isn't being cruel, she's trying to keep him from ruining the carpet.

So now Sarah and Irene are in the house about to have their confrontation. "Sarah, you're an hour late..."

Sarah lost track of time. Sarah is the one who screwed up. Irene has every right to be frustrated. For all we know, she and Robert were supposed to see a movie or meet someone and Sarah's tardiness wrecks their plans. Note, please, that while she is frustrated, she's not even yelling. My mom would have screamed bloody murder and then held it over my head for weeks.

"Your father and I go out very rarely..."

"You go out every single weekend!"

There is no way to confirm who is right on this. I will say Sarah is the one prone to hysterics and exaggeration, so it's not looking good for her.

"And I ask you to babysit only if it won't interfere with your plans."

I ask. Irene asks. She doesn't demand, and she doesn't expect Sarah to give up her previous plans.

"Well how would you know what my plans are? You don't even ask me anymore!"

Sarah, you were LARPing in a park by yourself. Furthermore, with the storm you would have gone home anyway.

"Well I assume you would tell me if you had a date. I'd like it if you had a date. You should have dates at your age."

Irene doesn't want Sarah to be a Cinderella stuck at home every night. She wants her to go out and have a social life. This is literally the opposite of the bedtime story Sarah tells Toby later.

Also, "I'd assume you tell me..." Irene might not be wording it in the best way here, but she wants Sarah to communicate with her. She wants them to have a relationship.

Then Robert enters the scene. "Sarah, you're home. We were worried about you."

WE were worried. As in both he and Irene. You think that's the reason she was waiting on the porch? Because their sixteen year old daughter is an hour past when she said she'd be home and now it's raining and getting dark?

It's not like she'd ever talk to a stranger.

Sarah runs up the stairs in a snit, not even acknowledging her father and leaving Irene dismayed. "She treats me like a wicked stepmother in a fairy story no matter what I say." Her voice isn't angry, it's hurt. She's making an effort to reach Sarah, but nothings working. She can't break through the tantrums and the anger and the hero worship of Linda.

Sarah is a fantasy junkie. It's all over her room. Her books are all fairy tales. Her dog and her teddy bear are named after figures from Arthurian legend. But she's wrapped herself in a different kind of fantasy, a toxic one. One where Irene, well meaning and kind, is one of the evil stepmothers from her fairytale books, while Linda is good and virtuous like one of the dead moms at the beginning. Except Linda isn't dead. She's shtupping a costar.

Part of Sarah's coming of age and maturity is rejecting Jareth, the stand in for her mother's lover and therefore finally rejecting following her mother's selfish path. We see her finally let go of Linda by putting her picture and clippings in the drawer. Hopefully, the next morning, after she picks the confetti out of her hair, she'll finally be able to start over with Irene.

Aragorn and Arwen have their son Eldarion twenty years after their wedding, and at least two or more daughters. That's the extent of canon info about their family after LotR. If we're going by what Tolkien's ghost would think is canonical pseudo-medieval gender roles, that's twenty years where the Reunited Kingdom has no heir.

Which is fine for Peredhel-turned-mortal Arwen, when elves can go centuries between having kids, and Dúnadan Aragorn, who knows he's got another 80-100 years in the tank before he *coughs politely* can't empty the tank. The Arnor Dúnedain, who for generations as an entire people have been crashing on Elrond's couch while larping at still having a kingdom, would understand this intuitively. But the people of Gondor (only a small percentage of which I think are Dúnedain?) may not quiiiiite understand this, not completely internalized it.

So they are hovering around Arwen, this beautiful alien creature that just landed in their backyard and snapped up the most available bachelor before he even came on the market, and she sometimes says outrageous things like "oh, I remember King Eärendur's wife liked this cookie recipe" and the servants and guests at tea cannot help but share a Look because that was 2160+ years ago, and does someone have to ask her if . . . if she knows what sex is?

In a pseudo medieval society it is the queen's duty to bear an heir, but like, she was raised an elf. Can we pressure her like we do our own kind into having grandbabies ASAP, or will she turn us into frogs? It's possible there are women who go through their entire reproductive years in between when Arwen has these kids. If Eldarion is her first then gossip in Minas Tirith for those twenty years must have been insane, waiting for an heir. Do elves even breed like we do? Did Beren and Lúthien spawn Dior Eluchíl in a pond? Did Tuor have to carry Eärendil like a seahorse? Do we have to catch a stork in the cabbage patch? Is Aragorn gonna have to lay eggs? What's the hold up?

there is no strength or beauty to be found within romanticized misery and antisocial tendencies, that which entices you wishes to consume you. wake up you fucking larping miserymaxxers. tptb want you to writhe in place hating your neighbor and stalking your friends for fun. they want to breed a new kind of sociopath. your suffering powers cosmic machinery we can’t comprehend yet. they do though. they want you wired to hate, consume, regurgitate and destroy. be jealous of everyone. work harder for less and seethe about it in silence. kick others off the ladder of life to make way for YOUR special self. make memes about total fucking annihilation of the human race. believe it. feed the death cult. believe in suicide. mutilate your body. doctors and state officials will help. mmmm. you feel dissatisfied with life and that makes you sick. you are sick in the head but these pills can help you gain control again. make memes about the antipsychotics killing you. yummy. you are very funny anon. everyone liked that. go to work on three hours of sleep and be grateful. square breathing. manifest success in your manifestation journal, just wait. It will come to you. relief will come to you because you’re special and deserve it more than these children in this country. or these people on the street outside of your city limits. radically accept what we selectively tube feed you. you will be an enemy to your fellow man and work solely for your special, shiny, miserable self. will you though? will you succumb to the temptation in weakness and fear? will you salve the wounded ego? or will you defiantly choose the self? will you kill these parts of you for the better of humanity? are we aware the other option is being sacrificed at the cosmic altar for ends which do not serve us?

I WANT TO KNOW ABOUT CANADIA AND NEO JAPAN

You're in luck!! I'd quite like to talk about Canadia and Neo Japan!! Thank you very much for asking about that!!

I really cant think of a smooth transition into talking about this, so we're just going to dive right in...

Content Warning: Long, Discussions of Late Stage Capitalism and Orientalism.

CANADIA:

Canadia is, put bluntly, an icy cyberpunk hellscape. It's known for being just about the only country in the world to very strictly follow Capitalism... And it's not in a very good state because of it. It's in an extreme form of the Late Stages, to the point of it being beyond parody. Corporations run the country, monopolies are rampant and unchecked, you can't even look up at the sky without being advertised to. It's miserable there, whether you live in a major city or not. Surveillance is rampant. Everything is a commodity. God forbid you want to go to a doctor for something. It's the perfect breeding grounds for either extreme paranoia or complete desensitization.

None of this is to say everyone's subservient in it. Not everyone's been broken into allowing themselves to be cogs of the machine- there are fighters out there who want to take the system down, one battle at a time. Maybe their revolution will work one day...

This is where Mituna is from. It explains a lot.

It's largely populated by Trolls. A startling amount of the population has started to partake in a political movement called Alternian Traditionalism as a means to cope with their oppressive environment. This isn't a healthy or effective way dealing with the problem, though, because it actually doesn't address any of the real issues, and wouldn't solve a damn thing. If the Alternian Traditionalists have their way, the country will get much, much worse...

NEO JAPAN:

Neo Japan is... Incredibly normal. In fact, one could even say that it's literally just regular Japan, except everyone acts like it's this strange, mystical place 25 years ahead of the technological curve, yet 2,500 years behind the cultural curve. Many people who aren't from Neo Japan practically worship the place blindly, not realizing that what they're praising is a heavily fictionalized version of a real place that real people live in. To many, it's a pure spectacle. An exotic experience to be had. A tourist location, full of fake people with perfect lives. It's as if the entire nation is defined by what can be put in advertisements and postcards. So... Again, one could even say that it's literally just regular Japan.

This is where Retris is from. Specifically Old Capital, which you may know as Kyoto. He lives in Kyoto City. This has given him an immense disdain for tourists/foreigners. He doesn't mind if you're respectful, though. He's just had his home treated as a circus enough times to get weary and wary. Damara, meanwhile, is from New Capital, which you may know as Tokyo. Though she has the same experience as Retris does regarding people treating her home as a circus, she hasn't had nearly as long of an exposure to that behavior, so she doesn't hold much opinion of it all. She ran away into the woods too soon to start really caring about it.

It's largely populated by Carapacians. I'd say the only "strange" thing they partake in is Traditional Battleground LARPing, which are entirely normal, save for the fact that a good majority of them involve real weapons, real battles, and real life-or-death stakes. Some of them are "Death-Free", though that's usually a fact that is remarked upon... Meaning, it's not the average set up. It's a cultural difference. Some people find it barbaric, but their attitude towards death just is not the same as it is in other societies. And that's fine.

hey, you mentioned a while that your LARP friends are into weaving. I've started weaving on a loom a while ago but would like to learn more, especially about methods, wool types, wool procession (?) and dying, etc. Do you know what sources they use/d to learn it? anything would help. Courses around here are ridiculously expensive because for some reason no one does it lol

Hey sorry for the late response I was waiting to hear back from a couple folks to get you a better answer if possible. The bad news is pretty much everyone I know who’s been taught to weave,including myself,have been taught by people in the living history community kind of on the field. I have no idea what access is like where you live,but your cheapest option if available to you is to find a historical center that does community engagement living history events. For example if you have any historic houses or homesteads or museums,often they have artisan demonstrations of things like weaving,smithing,cooking ect. YouTube is also a shockingly good resource for all kinds of specialized weaving,I’ve used lots of reference videos for tablet weaving as well as traditional loom weaving.

Outside of that for resources I really recommend any of Deborah Chandler’s books, though I’m not as familiar on books on weaving specifically as most my knowledge has been hands on taught. I can totally recommend you some fantastic dyeing books though as that’s something I’m quite familiar with!

This is going to be your go to for learning to dye wool yarn. It’s comprehensive,easy to read,what I would recommend if you’re really wanting to get into dyeing your own fiber,and it’s much cheaper than a lot of the less encompassing ones on Amazon.

This is great for beginners in dyeing to teach techniques for wool dyeing especially,though it’s not super comprehensive of dye formulas.

This isn’t dyeing wool specifically but is my favorite natural dyeing book I own and I use it like a BIBLE. If you’re wanting to really learn the chemistry and more technical science of creating natural dye and fiber dyeing this is like,THE investment to make for advanced knowledge. It’s not cheap but it’s been by far,my most worthwhile book purchase for dyeing.

If you’re wanting something on fiber grading and different kinds of wool specifically one of my friends recommended this one as a great beginner guide!

And this is a go to for both myself and lots of friends in my community for wool reference. I think overall it’s best for comprehensive info versus the price!

Hope that helps!

State of the Concordiat, 2023/09/16

Been a little bit, so here's an update for you all!

The State of the Concordiat is where I issue progress reports for how the index is coming along, primarily (at this time) what books I've entered in. I used to pick books to index rather randomly, but lately I've mostly kept to a chronological release order. Right now I've got most Werewolf-related sources completed up through September of 1995, excluding novels, fiction anthologies and LARP sources (though I will be indexing these eventually, they're just lower-priority).

Which book am I currently working on? Well, since last time I've completed Savage Attack: A Players Guide to Rage, Tribebook: Red Talons and Outcasts: A Players Guide to Pariahs. I did a big reference pull (a post coming about that soon!) that kept me occupied for a while, so not quite as much progress on the index as I would have otherwise hoped for. But I'm back on track, and Freak Legion is up next. A very thorough book about fomori, but a part of the Black Dog imprint so it can be pretty dark and edgy. In Freak Legion's case, it's particularly splatterpunk, for good and for ill.

Below the cut you'll find the now fairly hefty list of sources I've indexed:

Completed to Current Standards: Art of Werewolf: The Apocalypse (Revised), Book of Worlds, Book of the Wyrm (First Edition), Book of the Wyrm (W20), Caerns: Places of Power, Ghost Towns, Guardians of the Caerns, Monkeywrench: Pentex, Outcasts, Past Lives, Players Guide to Garou, Possessed, Project Twilight, Rage: Warriors of the Apocalypse, Rite of Passage, Rites of Renown, Savage Attack, Skinner, Tribebook: Black Furies, Tribebook: Bone Gnawers, Tribebook: Children of Gaia, Tribebook: Fianna, Tribebook: Get of Fenris, Tribebook: Glass Walkers, Tribebook: Glass Walkers Revised, Tribebook: Red Talons, Tribebook: U****a Revised, Umbra: the Velvet Shadow, Under a Blood Red Moon, Ways of the Wolf, Werewolf: the Apocalypse (Second Edition), Werewolf: the Apocalypse 20th Anniversary Edition, Werewolf Players Guide, Werewolf Storytellers Handbook, Werewolf Storytellers Screen (First Edition), Werewolf Storytellers Screen (Second Edition), Werewolf Storytellers Screen (W20), White Wolf Magazine - Issue 32, White Wolf Magazine - Issues 39-44, Wyld West Expansion Pack

Completed to Some Standard: Ananasi, Axis Mundi, Bastet, Changing Breeds (W20), Changing Ways (W20), Corax, Dark Alliance: Vancouver, Gurahl, Hengeyokai, Kinfolk: Unsung Heroes, Mokole, Nagah, Nuwisha, Rage Across the Amazon, Rage Across Appalachia, Rage Across Australia, Rage Across New York, Rage Across Russia, Ratkin, Tribebook: Black Furies Revised, Tribebook: U****a, Valkenburg Foundation, Werewolf: the Apocalypse (1st Edition)

[here-there-were-dragons]

what i’m getting initially from the lore is that the arcane flight in ancient times had a decent burgeoning capacity for aethernaut technology and there is a non-zero chance there are other unfathomably ancient early space age artifacts of a fallen past dragon civilization in the sky, and that following the astrolab’s launch the entire planetbound aether civilization was wiped out with little trace by some unspecified cataclysm, likely warring with another primal race, leaving the scientists on the makeshift generation ship as the only survivors.

perhaps aether was not their original name, but over untold tens or even hundreds of thousands of years isolation the remainder of their species, descended from their lost landbound counterpart’s trained aethernauts, shortened the title further and further into simply “aether” and with enough time (and book-eating) further simply forgot there was ever more?

and they get all their battle tactics knowledge from their poorly organized larp sessions of old-enough-to-be-fossilized tapes saved from their lost groundward civilization of ancient dragon star trek and name things like they work for god damn aperture science. “material emancipation grille”. and they’re literally sparkledog mary sues. who the fuck let them name themselves. why did they start naming themselves “xxxdarkstarxxx” i can’t decide if it’s numbly dismaying or numbly fucking hilarious (as all emotions are numb and distant for me these days) that that’s canon and there is now a canon mary sue sparkledragon breed like have they literally just been doing nothing but spinning their wheels creating warrior owlcats rp forums up there since the rest of their species died. when they sent all their best and brightest up there was it like how the entire modern real world tech infrastructure is held up by about 30 furries that if any one of decided to disconnect their pager for a few hours the entire internet and literally civilization itself would collapse in a fire and now all that’s left of their breed are all descended from that.

their culture seems to be clan-troupes, likely descended from specific maintenance teams, of distorted half-religiocized echoes of random portions of long-forgotten ship repair safety training and shakily clung to jumbled impressions of some sort of lost pseudomilitaristic crewed vessel hierarchy, and it’s strangely giving me a combination of the movie passengers vibes and a wikipedia summary i skimmed once of one of the later books in something called the xeelee sequence, which described a long-future descendant of humanity on a generation ship in which these remnants of humanity had devolved so much that they now no longer had much sentience, preforming ship repair and maintenance by pure instinct as a way of attracting mates and having no real understanding of what they were doing or why.

a am however at a loss as to why, of all things their lore could be, their entire gimmick seems to revolve around compulsively eating paper.

after seeing a trailer for something called hyper light breaker, i assume an alleged sequel to something else called hyper light drifter, i have made the retroactive decision to assign them a synthwave-ish, hyperreallife pulsating sleek slanted laser light energy beams making roadways for sleek glowing similarly fizzling near-digital lightcraft sort of aesthetic, vaguely cyberpunk but made from faintly magitech parts, sans any sort of digital artifacts visual additions. the actual aesthetic i am thinking of is not in any way based on the game itself, but instead is based purely on the feeling of the name alone taken out of context of the game it applies to. what type of imagery and feeling of the words “hyper light drifter” on their own with no knowledge of the game inspire. i will likely forget what i meant by this in three weeks time.

#i like that some small attempt seems to have been made to work in science fantasy-esque technicaly worldbuilding themes #even if it's only in the absolute most glossed over surface level mass appeal way #always like stuff that seems to be gesturing at least a little bit at something vaguely like hardish scifi #flight rising #i dunno what the fuck a quantillium astrometics is but tell me more #tell me how the magitek engines work and what can realisticaly go wrong with them #tell me what living in that environment would realistically entail #fiddly sciency realsticish technical and realismish cultural worldbuilding details go brrr #let me know what a world like this would REALLY be like #tell us more about how this 'runes' part of the magic system works #that could be... VERY useful to worldbuilding and player lore if it was fleshed out more specifically #i find it very unlikely that all of their species was sent up on the astrolab #the idea of a species both being industrialized enough to produce a tens of thousands year running generation vessel #and low enough in number to all fit on it at once *and* be able to launch it without anyone being left planetside #is frankly absurd #even in a world with magic #reminding me a little also of alex ries' birrin SPEAR vessel #depression-induced showerthoughts #flight rising headcanons

[ofmermaidstories]

sweet merms, please don't feel pressured to answer my other ask! <3 re: that /specific/ aesthetic you're talking about, i totally get it—it's such a vibe!!! i wish there was a name for it? the only thing that comes to mind now is like, expensive bimbo (all that dior can't be cheap...) LOL. i love the mix of classy and kawaii and kidcore/retro/nostalgiacore. it's so interesting and your collages are all beautiful <3 and above all, i LOVE the amount of pink in it!!! from an ex-pink hater, flishy<3

The closest thing to a name I’ve seen for it in my travels is coquette, but like, it’s not really… encompassing this new breed of it that i’ve seen, floating around the place LOL. Like, if i had to sum-up what i’m talking about in a moodboard, it’d be this:

Expensive bimbo is such a good title for the visuals of it. 😭 Because it really does delight in that—shopaholic, I’m a Barbie Girl <3 kind of superficiality, and yet like, again, the examples i’ve seen will contrast those with… a pack of tarot cards kept in someone’s purse, or 1950s books about getting your wife a lobotomy. Beyond the merging of the esoteric aspects (the tarot cards, the “im just a gemini girlie that’s why i lie <3” astrology), I find it can really verge on like, romanticising mental illness? Like, “omg, I’m such a Sad Girl TM, I slept until 3pm and all I’ve had for sustenance is a iced vanilla latte and a cigarette because i’m trying to ascend to God”—

I sound like I’m making fun of this, but I swear I’m not. Depression is a reality for so many of us, and as someone who has their Sad Girl hours and also like, really resonates with a lot of this Expensive Bimbo/Coquette aesthetic, I think that’s why I find this melding of them so fascinating? Because I am an expensive bimbo, lmfao. My skincare cabinet is filled with expensive, luxury brands that I buy on a whim—and i’ve always been a Pink Girl TM LOL, if that hasn’t been obvious. My favourite colour to wear is like, this soft strawberry-milk pink and I’ve recently come to the horrifying realisation that men will go out of their way to be nicer to me, while I’m wearing it LOL. I don’t even think it’s like, an attraction thing—I think the pink is just that striking, and disarming, that people immediately associate it with like, soft, squishy friendliness and then respond to it in kind (irritating; like i’m not inherently worthy of friendliness outside of whether or not i wear the colour pink???). Because I buy myself flowers, often, I’ve made friends with the florist there and as a result she always makes a fuss of wrapping my flowers for me so I now have a collection of ribbons that I either cull through reusing them for gifts or like, wear in my hair. i’m way too old to LARP with ribbon ponytails, but here we are!!

Goldie brought up Mina Le and Shanspeare, who are like, two fashion essayists/vloggers. Shan’s latest video—which i’ve linked—is like, a break down of how the need to identify with an “aesthetic” has become really prevalent, thanks to social media but full disclaimer: i haven’t watched it. Social media has definitely given like, both easy access to these sub-styles/aesthetics, and a rise to them (like what tiktok was calling whimsigoth? The 90s, painted-smiley-face-sun aesthetic with royal blue walls and iron wrought beds and those crushed velvet dresses with the renaissance sleeves), and i think the way they splinter off and become their own micro-niche styles/aesthetics is just… i dunno!!! Telling, maybe, of how easy it is for us to consume information and media and then the very human nature to like, wanna mimic the stuff we like. I’d consider that deranged-yellow-wallpaper-my-boyfriend-is-a-demon-who-comes-for-me-at-night-expensive-bimbo-core thing i’ve been prattling on to be like, a micro-micro style, LOL. Because it’s so oddly specific! So many different interests and styles had to meet in the middle to create it. There’s a pretentiousness to it, right? Like, “oh, i’m languishing here on my daybed, eating cherries and reading Proust in it’s original French” LOL, and I LOVE IT. I can’t read French, but like, if I could you’d bet your ass I would also languish around and eat cherries while reading Proust, or whatever. It’s delightful: the indulgence and selfishness of it reminds me of why I’m so attracted to x Reader fics, lmfao, like—it’s so unashamed. It’s perfect. I love every inch of it, the good and the bad and the problematic. I think they should study it in universities: why do we have this performative need to collect all the things we like and present it as a lifestyle? As something aspirational? I love it so much. Ugh. Imagine it in a fictional sense??? The damage, a character like that could do???? UghHhHhh okay I can feel myself going off tangent so I’m gonna stop this here, but anyways thank u BYE.

#ofmermaidstories-asks #i feel like me explaining anything is just me going in circles because my stupid brain can’t do linear thoughts but like #hopefully someone gets what i was trying to express LMAO #floating rubbish island: mermaid spam #passion for fashion: the dress-up tag

Another bi women used lesbianism to shock her parents instead of actually considering what she was attracted to :) and is now going on to suck and fuck and breed with men :)) and now a whole bunch of homophobes plus other lesbians will see this and their doubt about lesbianism will grow deeper :))) larping like a tra because you think lesbianism is a fucking haircut and then pulling right out of it with no apology, go fuck yourself homophobe

As I stated before in the other hate I got, the fact you sent this as an anon proves you are a pathetic coward who needs tons of therapy and help to actually be a functioning human.

Another bi women used lesbianism to shock her parents instead of actually considering what she was attracted to :)

You know when I told my mother I thought I was gay she made it about herself told me she knew i was a lesbian since I was a preteen cause of how I fangirled over Demi Lovato and Taylor Swift. Then admitted to outing me to my father, which explains why he would randomly call me a pervert and a pedophile because to him homosexuality equals pedophilia. Like actually from the time I was 20 to the time I was 23 I literally had no attraction to the male sex at all. Like it was most definitely a trauma response,but like I was a lesbian for like 3 ish years until I did that shroom trip and realized I was in love with a good friend of mine, who happens to be a male. Also fun fact my parents still think I am a lesbian because I haven't talked to them in a few years now sooo.

and is now going on to suck and fuck and breed with men :))

For how much anti-porn radfems say they are this screams like you are a regular porn watcher and adopted the extremely violent language in this media, and use it for people who you do not like. This statement also reduces me to a sex object, which again is antithetical to radical feminism.

and now a whole bunch of homophobes plus other lesbians will see this and their doubt about lesbianism will grow deeper :)))

How does me figuring out my sexuality and gender identity, harm others? You do realize I was in a high control environment until I was about 20 ish and then didn't have really any freedom until I came up to nyc earlier this year right? Like everyone is in the process of growing and finding oneself whether they want to believe it or not. The fact that hate has overcrowded your heart like this, makes me feel sorry for you. The fact you look at the world like this, screams you need some serious help and I hope to God you find it.

larping like a tra because you think lesbianism is a fucking haircut and then pulling right out of it with no apology

how am I like a TRA? Yeah I did have some sex dysphoria was a preteen, teenager and a little bit up til my early 20s, but most of it I worked through on shrooms so, I am just a gender conforming cisgendered bisexual woman. Nothing wrong with that!! Where tf did I say lesbian is a look? I said me being gnc was a cope, I didn't specify why. Which that stems from the fact my parents wanted a son, not a daughter and they bullied me and were rude and cruel to me over my sex, and I thought if I acted more masculine they would love me more. Well that backfired. Pulling out without an apology? what the fuck are you talking about bro?? how is my personal growth have anything to do with others??? Like I wanted to post a cute life update and you people just come for my throat; which proves why I am not the biggest fan of radfems anymore. Most of y'all are hateful bigots with complexes that obscure you from being kind or understanding. Which if you want women's liberation you need to be kind and understanding,which you are neither and I hope to god you find some goddamn peace cause you fucking need it.

go fuck yourself homophobe

How am I homophobic? Like anon you don't know me at all, like now to toot my own horn but there are some bloggers who orbit the same circles as us who know me irl and they will disagree with this statement a lot sooo lol

Gourd is called Hulu in Chinese, a gourd is so auspicious in Feng Shui.

In Chinese mythology, many holy men are depicted holding one, which they could use either as a receptacle for magical potions or to confine evil spirits within it. The gourd can absorb negative energy from its surroundings. Hulu also sounds similar to fulu, which means ‘happiness’ as well as ‘high official rank’. The gourd has many seeds, it symbolizes fertility. The shape of the gourd resembles “8”, the number “8” is the most favorite number of the Chinese. The Cantonese pronunciation for this number is fatt (发), which implies “to prosper”.

I think the scariest part of growing up is realising how many people sincerely and totally have departed from basic common sense they had as children and believe that’s part of adulthood. Like believing a woman’s primary function is to have children as some fucking apex of existence, or having no respect for the life and dignity of other animals, or treating men like fucking canon fodder or a secondary species for protection.

It seems like we’re all tunnelled into some fucking male power fantasy (that doesn’t even suit men!!! Whose fantasy is this?! The state’s? Women: breed, men: die — sure fucking works for them to make money and people to fuel more shitty wars) that’s only possible with some degree of psychopathy and it’s fucking nuts. It’s creepy and nuts.

It’s creepy that you don’t cry when your pet dies violently because ‘it’s just a pet’, it’s creepy when you start talking about ‘her having my children’ passively like she isn’t collaboratively part of the fucking process, it’s creepy when you think cutting your boyfriends off from their friends and taking away their right to privacy is normal like you’re fucking resource guarding instead of dealing with a human being.

It’s nuts! It’s scary! And the way they do it with a knowing smile, like it’s what we all want, like we are all in on this script — no! No! Absolutely not. If the idea of adulthood is seeing other life as an object to be treated cheaply, I’m out. Cherish the life of your animals, cherish your own life, cherish your friends and partners, you are a human before you are a partner, you have no right over other people, fuck this script and this weird fucking LARP. How do people unquestioningly buy into these expectations, why do the friends we grew up with do it en masse? People are fucking insane.
