I would like to tell @ Luke Castellan that I too am extremely disappointed by my parents but that doesn't mean I sell my body to the first bad guy I meet!

sometimes you're just sitting around, living, and you're lifted up and out of your own eyes and you see yourself from ten thousand feet up, not as you but your place as a link in the chain of all humanity, of society, the silken lines of the web that holds you even as you create it: a moment when the unique edges of your struggle are sanded off and you remember that all these things are things that have been felt before - but also when you see the things you've plodded through, step by miserable, familiar step, from the outside and realize that they are extraordinary--

I have a bandaid on my thumb and I can't use it to type. Declan Lynch has possessed my body and I am now typing with my left thumb and right index.

looking at (vetted) gofundmes for people trying to escape palestine and i don't know how many of you actually click on the gofundme links you reblog but i would like to point out, for what it's worth, just how amazing it is that so many have raised so much money. it may overall feel like a drop in the ocean but the fact that several gofundmes have raised tens of thousands of dollars is amazing. it is so expensive to leave gaza right now, and people still need money after they escape. but regardless of what propaganda the US, UK, canada, and other western nations are trying to pump out, people across the world are doing what they can to help these people survive. many of them are still very far from their goals (like this one and this one and this one) and some of them are very close to high goals (like this one), and some of them have reached almost double their original goal.

and that's not even addressing direct aid or organizations that take continuous donations for distribution of food, menstrual products, etc. the PCRF has raised $16,000,000 of their target goal of $20,000,000 to fund current aid and long-term relief efforts in gaza. ANERA's febuary 13th update discusses the material ways they helped palestinians today:

(ANERA donate link)

my point is, it often feels like the world is turning a blind eye to palestine. but i would like to point out that there is an important difference between "the world" and "western political leaders and media narratives". a breathtaking amount of real people, the people who make up the world, are trying to help. in the face of israel attempting to commit genocide, the world is saying No. These people deserve to live. and literally sending millions of dollars internationally, through the internet connection that israel has desperately been trying to destroy.

it may not feel like it matters in the grand scheme of things. but to the people who get fresh clothes, or a hot meal, or blankets, or the kids who get new toys, or to the people who are able to bring their families to safety, it matters to them. go make someone's day better. i've linked so many options with ways to do that.

#free palestine #cricket chirps #palestine #gaza #if you feel overwhelmed and don't know where to begin #i recommend deciding on a total amount of money to donate (e.g. $20 $100 etc) #and deciding you will either donate it all in one place or split it between a few places #do what you can!!! it will always be helpful no matter how little #1k #5k #10k #20k

Ok. Long rant for anyone bored or curious enough...

Long story short. I consider myself asexual and aromantic. Living in the aroace spectrum surrounded by all kinds of romantic and sexual marketing is tiring 😪 but anyway I didn't mind.

I was content.

All my "crushes" are platonic and I know it and I never actually try for anything! Like. Being in a relationship is exhausting! The attention the money the emotions... Not for me.

And so far until recently, I had thought "sexual attraction" was similar to aesthetic attraction or something cause I'd never felt it before and I've never enjoyed sex (tbh I don't really like people touching me but I guess I liked them enough to give it a try -with no good results).

So. I met this one person.

This one person is 90% my type.

Taller, older, smart, secure, fun, handsome...

We talked. A lot. Almost daily. Almost.

I was happy to just be friends, as I said, I usually keep my crushes platonic, telling myself nothing will ever happen and I don't want it to happen and that way nothing can not work.

Gods. This is stupid. Hah

Anyway. I'm already struggling with suicidal-thoughts 24/7, but like, I won't do anything. I have my lifeline in place and it looks sturdy enough. Works for me even if I'm not really fixing my mind. I tend to joke about this a lot. Part of my defense I guess even when not many people get them 😅

This one person got my jokes! Like they knew when I was struggling and gave me space or even cracked their own joke to help me or even by just being there it helped 😭

And then the day came when this one person confessed to have "a thing" for me.

This part is funny for me bc my mild autistic brain thought they meant a gift lol. Then I understood they meant they liked me. And I liked them!

You know, being aroace and super selective in general, how difficult is it for me to meet someone I like and like like???

And then there were plans to go out, hang out... I allowed them to touch and it actually felt nice!!?! Is that what sexual people feel? Cause then I kinda understand why they like it so much 😂

So. This one person who was attractive for me and whose personality was awesome and with whom I had a lot of chemistry exists.

And I feel butterflies.

Here's where you make a wish cause this has never happened and I don't think it will happen again 🥲

And then.

They had to go.

So this one person who I really really liked just vanished.

Well not exactly. But we heaven't talked in a little while. And I got so bad I went all self-destructive and shit and I know it's stupid but it just feels like... Like... Loss.

So I guess I'm grieving. And to top it all, there's one person I wished I could talk to. If only to make fun of myself or to get advice or to shake me back to my usual heartless self.

But my uncle died almost two years ago now and I miss him a lot.

And so. That's my spiral.

I didn't want to worry anyone with the last HL post where MC does the deed but this fandom, that character, helps me express in a roundabout indirect anonymous way.

Everyone and everything's been telling me to be patient, like maybe this one person will come back and we can go through things the right way, and my aroace ass will have the one person who confirmed we're part of the spectrum but not on the limit... Idk if I'm explaining myself well enough. I'm still spiraling if I'm honest...

But I'm here.

And I will be here.

As long as my lifeline lives.

Anyway. Thanks for reaching out to me! I'm just another stranger on the internet but believe me, you helped, and if you ever need help, I'm here.

Thinking about how there's so much sexism and homophobia in people, that they don't even notice.

(assault & suicide mentions after the cut)

A friend of mine does a livestream every week, horror movies.

In this particular movie, a man is forcibly treated like a woman, including sexual assault by men.

A woman who is also watching says he should have shot himself after.

We've watched movies where "actual" women have been assaulted, and she never said anything like that.

She also complained about how he didn't fight back enough and "his crying sounds like laughing".

Again - if this had been a woman, would she be saying things like this?

It's just weird.

She wouldn't consider herself homophobic or sexist, she'd probably consider herself a feminist.

but there it is.

and I'm just sitting here being uncomfortable as hell - by her, not the movie.

The movie was disturbing, hell yeah.

But we took different things away from it.

Me, that men can be fucking horrible when they're isolated.

Her, that a man who's put in the position of a woman isn't worth shit.

Hi guys This post is for people interested in online commerce, so it is not suitable for all minds. After my experience for a full year with HODLANUT TRADE, I will tell you in short, I do not advise anyone to deal with them. I personally was very hurt. And do not believe a word every HODLANUT admin says. HODLANUT had a case in court before I entered into the alleged investment with them. Even someone who followed HODLANUT was saying in court he would pay the debt, then it turned out the payment was out of the poor's pocket. So I'm telling you because I'm afraid it will happen to you like it happened to me. So I have to warn you.

Visit my blog to see more of my experiences. To reduce the suffering.

I have unwittingly witnessed a new level of the absurd. Behold, the AI-generated equine anatomy models.

Ah yes, my favourite parts of the equine body. Paster and... *looks at the smudged writing on hand* boob. At least this one looks purely decorative and the being actually looks like a horse. But don't worry, it gets worse.

If we completely ignore the hipopotamus musculature of this one, there's still a lot of things that don't make sense in this one, like a tail that ends in a series of bone spikes and a complete lack of molars. You could make a cool pokemon on the basis of this, but it's not even in the realm of being an actual anatomy help.

I'm firmly convinced this is not a horse, this is something that really, really wants you to think it is a horse. The more you look, the more things look... wrong. The more details turn out to be shifted, bones crammed in to fill in the familiar form, its shape merely implied so that the human mind fills the gap. Of course the text seems like gibberish, because its anatomy is incomprehensible. it's either a parasite or a monster and in each case, it's an eldtrich body horror. I'm kind of angry at how well this joke writes itself.

#I'm just angry that despite of the fact I have almost every AI site blocked it still showed up in the search #I don't think these will fool anyone but still - make sure you know the things you reference are actually accurate #I can recommend Herman Dittrich's drawings when it comes to the equine anatomy #This time I was just searching for the anatomy it bc I forgot what's the name of the canon bone #anti generative ai

I saw the news today about CR going to Rose City Comic Con, and my thoughts ran pretty much like this: "Am I over my case of convention burn-out and utter lack of faith in attendees NOT to crush themselves into crowded rooms while infected with the plague, and am I willing to do a six-hour round trip drive and pay way too much for a hotel for the privilege of a one-hour panel and...yeeeaaaah, no."

Always kinda delightful to open an event page and see Powell's on the list of sponsors, though. Love ya, Powell's.
