#and it’s not supposed to!

[altschmerzes]

im too tired to word this well and thoroughly but lately spending time in the aro community is just increasing and strengthening my belief that the framework of attraction/orientation is just not the appropriate framework for thinking about and discussing every type of human interaction and experience and feeling. that’s a specific concept to capture a specific experience and making everything an axis of attraction/orientation is…… it really doesn’t work.

#attraction and orientation are very specific concepts that mean a specific thing #it’s not going to fit every single variance in human experience and relation #and it’s not supposed to! #and i get why this happens to some extent but oy #words mean things. sometimes people are just different in the way they experience the world #and the way they feel and behave #and there is a utility in the framework of attraction and orientation #that does not fit A LOT OF THINGS #and trying to make it fit that way is. confusing at best. and deeply troublesome in a lot of ways #anyways if anyone feels like having some kind of a respectful discussion about this feel free to ask clarifying questions #but otherwise. do not yell at me. the block button is free and i use it liberally. #aro blogging

ENTRY LEVEL MEANS NO EXPERIENCE. IT MEANS NO PORTFOLIO OF RELEVANT SAMPLES. ENTRY LEVEL IS ENTRY LEVEL

#HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO GAIN EXPERIENCE YOU STUPID FUCKS #I HATE THIS I HATE JOB HUNTING THIS SYSTEM IS ABSOLUTE DOG SHIT

can't believe we're all adults being forced into the club penguin level of censorship in 2024

#ramble #if you say unalive in front of me i will personally kill you with my hands #you just can't muffle and censor and hold someone's hand through some things #some things are horrible. and they should be spoken aloud and they should upset you. because they are horrible #the second we started kidzbopifying the world was the end of taking anything seriously i think #i'm not even joking i've spoken to people older than me who won't even say the world sex #this isn't the playground you're not going to get in trouble just let us say the word!!!!!! #how am i supposed to listen to you when you won't even say the thing you're supposed to be talking about #yes this is the fault of the platforms with their censorship rules but the fact that we all just go along with it like it's not dystopian #you do know it doesn't stop with cursing right. people are already having to censor queer terms because they get flagged as inappropriate

I hate how acknowledging unfairness in the world is seen as "childish". Maybe children are right. I don't think you should be proud of the fact that you've become complacent with the state of your miserable existence and took on this loser "it is what it is" mentality. Things can be better.

#Maybe it's the 'tism but I've never lost my childlike rage. #If suffering is what reality is supposed to be then I must strike down God and pull the heavens here to Earth

When I was a teenager and still on Neopets I was part of a pretty big Star Trek guild and eventually became part of its council, with the solemn duty of creating weekly polls. Well one day I created the poll "Which would win in a fight? Borg Cube or Death Star?". Naturally, since this was a Star Trek guild, the answer was overwhelmingly "Borg Cube", but someone did have the rationality to point out we were biased.

So I look up a pretty prominent Star Wars guild and message one of their council and ask them to poll the same question and get back to me in a week. They do, and naturally the fuckin geeks said "Death Star".

So then I look up a Stargate guild and messaged the lead council member, saying the same thing, and they get back to me almost immediately saying that the Death Star would immediately one-shot a Borg Cube but they would never be able to do it again to another Cube. And I took that wisdom back to my guild and we were mollified, and for one moment the Nerd World was peaceful.

#star trek #star wars #stargate #edit: typo. it's supposed to say win a fight

fucking hate how cats think they can mrrp their way out of anything because yeah, they fucking can.

#how am i supposed to make rational decisions when they go mrrp #not arguing with a lil guy that goes mrrp. whatever you say goes beautiful #cats #niko rambles

that being said I'm not actually always opposed to conflict free fluff I am just opposed to the characters having their claws filed down for it. you can stick them in a coffee shop au it should just still feel like you sat the two worst most insane people on earth in a starbucks

#which in some cases I suppose if you did not file them down it would cease to be conflict free fluff #no matter WHAT au it was. but nevertheless

Annabeth: I, a child, had to earn Thalia’s love, that’s how the world works! I have to earn my moms love. Love is transactional, you gotta be worthy of it first silly :)

Percy, listening to this on the train

#STOP TRAUMATIZING THIS CHILD PLEASE #this is what it’s like when you were raised in a loving home and you find out your friend wasn’t #but they don’t know they weren’t #so you’re like um hey that’s fucked up and sometimes a crime? #you tell them parents are supposed to love you as is without earning it and they don’t believe you #you can hear the therapy bill racking up #annabeth chase #Percy jackson #percy jackson and the olympians #percy jackon and the olympians #pjo #pjo series #pjo tv show #mine #adding on to my tags because some people are debating if that’s how love works #love is meant to be a mutual exchange and something that grows over time between two people as their bond grows #whereas how Annabeth says it #in my opinion at least #she had to do XY and Z to be worthy of thalias love before receiving it #like with her mother #she has to be amazing before Athena is proud of her #vs Athena being proud of her just for being her daughter #that being said I’m not hating on a traumatized child having potentially negative and toxic patterns #more pointing out the comedy of the scene from Percy’s perspective who has a good grasp on healthy vs unhealthy relationships
