#like enough already jfc

[heir-less]

Omg yes re: how can you brag about Kate making Meghan sit behind her, or making her "cower in fear" at the walkabout when Lizzy died, refusing to correct the story about her really making Meghan cry and so much more so on the nose it's almost comical anti black stories she's allowed to be published in her name and then pretend you don't understand what racism is? Truly just a bunch of racist misogynistic cowards that see themselves in a racist white princess and wish to occupy her space. Scares and sickens me we have to share our spaces with such vapid brainless followers. What's crazier is that *this* is the sort of stan that wants to act shocked when their fandom produces the most violently racist, misogynistic and anti LGBTQ+ takes. You don't get to spread and excuse blatant misogynoir and racism against CHILDREN THAT DON'T EVEN EXIST YET and act shocked when you're called out for being part of a blatantly violent and hateful community.

Yeah, I just can't. You can't have it both ways.

#i should elaborate but i'm tried #from this year alone there are at least 8 stories where kate allegedly comes off as absolutely unhinged and obsessed with meghan #like enough already jfc

the average person doesn't expect you to be a perfect ethical consumer, that's not possible for the vast majority of us. but what youre saying is it's better to do nothing at all and choose the worst possible options (sweat shops, overseas shipping waste, idea/product theft, all wrapped up in SHEIN) than to put even the tiniest effort in where you can.

[they are referring to this post]

What I said was "some people are doing literally everything they can to survive and have no extra bandwidth to spend extra time and money on their purchases, and it is cruel and therefore un-punk to gatekeep punkness and add additional shame to these people's lives based on that fact."

I think it's still a good thing to try to ethically consume; I literally never said it wasn't. I had never even heard of SHEIN before. Rather, I am much more concerned about what I saw as arbitrary gatekeeping based on ability and income.

And frankly how dare you claim that I am supporting sweatshops and abuse by saying that this additional work you are demanding (in this case, presumably, vetting every clothing company you buy from) is not always possible for people. It is not a light accusation to accuse me of supporting abuse.

"How dare you say we piss on the poor", Etc. 🙄 this isn't Twitter. You are determined to enforce moral purity, but you are failing to see the nuance.

Because when I say "no extra bandwidth," I mean no extra bandwidth. This is not the "car shows it's on E but actually secretly it has a lot of gas left" situation that abled people constantly assume disabled people mean when they say they are at their limit.

This is "at a certain point, people will hit a wall in terms of money and time and energy, and any energy spent after that comes directly out of their life force."

So the argument "okay but just spend a little more time money and energy actually" is not a valid one.

And the argument "if you are not able to do this specific task, then it means you're not doing anything else to make the world a better place" doesn't exactly impress me either. You said yourself that it is impossible to be a perfectly ethical consumer for most people.

How do you know what else people are doing to resist oppression? How many hours per week until your standards are met?What if someone works 3 jobs? Does that mean it's harder to be a good person if you're poor?? Why do you get to decide what specific avenue of bettering the world is the most morally repugnant or acceptable? What kind of proof of goodness and effort would make you satisfied enough to lay off on the shame?? Who are you helping??

Clothing is a fundamental human need, and some of us have to buy cheap fucking clothes quickly. Billionaires are buying their seventh yacht this month. The people who own fast fashion companies are abusing their workers and putting local affordable clothing stores out of business - and this applies for basically every company with price points that low because governments are failing to regulate corporations to enforce basic human rights.

I have $300 to spend on a new wardrobe as my old clothes have fallen apart or become too small. Do you have a way for me to get a new winter coat, 3 flannels, 10 shirts, 3 dress shirts, new sandals, 10 pairs of pants, 5 bras, 12 pairs of socks, and 10 pairs of underwear within that budget and also definitely 100% ethically sourced, with free returns in case it doesn't fit? Or will I simply have to use the cheap stores?

I have about an hour to spend on this per week. Should I continue to wear small and tattered clothing until I have the time, money, and energy to meet your standards? Did you know there are more empty homes in this country than homeless people? If I decide to splurge on only 100% ethically-produced products, and I can't make rent, and I become homeless, are YOU going to be there for me?? Or are you busy litigating the endless tiny shames of poverty in your own community?

So I ask you again, are you sure this is where you want to direct your punk energy? Because energy and time, as it turns out, are limited resources. And I would never expect you to secretly have more than you claim to have.

#original #punk #hopepunk #cripplepunk #i swear to god #reading comprehension website #how dare you say we piss on the poor #jfc 'what you're saying is we should do nothing' - what I'm saying is YOU are doing nothing by enforcing this boundary #you have to give people more credit than this. i believe you want a better world too. and it would be cool if you used your energy to #instead ask 'how do i fight for the people in my community to be clothed and have the time and income to shop ethically?' #or 'how do i support activism that pushes for regulation that could control these companies?' #monitoring how poor people spend money is a supremely Republican thing to do. as is demanding clear moral purity from every scenario. #you want a better world too. you want to demand your peers do better. - fine. good. #but you need to be asking if you have remembered and included everyone's needs when making statements like this. #capitalism is all for forgetting about poor and disabled people and refusing to believe their limits. #shame is a necessary weapon in fighting greed but it IS a weapon. be so careful where you point that shit. enough shame can kill a person #and a lot of us are already defending from it from all sides. #shaming a person who is already at their limit for not doing more is an act of cruelty. think very carefully about what that means please. #i literally don't even know what SHEIN is lol i just know classism when i see it #but I've had friends whose clothes were visibly falling apart with no income and so much so shame so deep in their hearts they were dying #and if they had seen that post it would have made them even sicker and gotten them no closer to the dignity of being properly clothed #shame is a weapon and /you need to be careful!!!!/

Weekend project! Mounted some steer horns I had acquired from an estate sale a while back :-) 💕

#it went easier than i thought!!! i likely may re-do them in the future with some tooled leather elements once i get a handle on that #but this is good enough for me for now! im happy with it :) #used some fabric and leather scraps i had already #and recycled foam and cardboard from moving for the base!!! surprisingly sturdy too #god its nuts how expensive these normally are too jfc #smaller racks than this costing like $150-$200 #idk why horns and antlers are just so expensive lately #one deer horn up here is like #$13???? #for why!!!! #my stuff

[magentagalaxies]

the saga of my newly fucked up sleep schedule is apparently not over!! even tho i did get a normal 8 hours last night i was in a show today and when that wrapped and i got back to my dorm at like 4:30-ish i decided to take a quick nap which turned into me waking up at almost NINE PM

on the plus side i'm fairly sure i lucid dreamed a couple of times during the nap so that's a plus

#i say ''fairly sure'' bc for me lucid dreaming is always kind of in this weird area where idk how much i can actually do it #bc most of the time i let dreams play out without trying to control them. like jfc i already make enough decisions while i'm awake lmao #mostly i'm just Aware it's a dream and if i'm like ''this dream sucks'' i can just decide to wake up #which i kind of wish had been the case this time bc jfc that nap was too long #HOWEVER this time i controlled things a bit more when there was like something coming up like #''i'd love to do (x opportunity) but i can't we don't have the time'' and then i'd be like this literally has no consequences it's a dream #so i'd just focus on moving us to that scene instead #or if something was really enjoyable i'd construct a way to do it again. like not being able to control everything #but being able to control that one element #so yeah idk exactly where i'm at in terms of lucid dreaming but at least i can make my dreams enjoyable! #even if the consequence of that is not having the motivation to be like ''this sucks'' and wake myself up at a decent time

[slutcore-starships]

.

#realizing that . a good chunk of ~all this~ is probably burnout from (autism) masking #bc despite being at home 24/7 i feel like im constantly reining myself in (if thats the phrase) #and im just not accomodated enough #. like whenever i get overwhelmed and nonverbal peoples response is to always try to get me to speak more?? #all in the name of ‘good communication’ #and like . jfc not being able to communicate . is already communicating somethinf #you just dont want to hear it

the more i learn about the american revolution the more hamilton: the musical infuriates me

(read tags for context pls i go off on a mega tangent)

Vent/transphobia in fandom

I regret looking in the trans //// Dirk tag bc wow... people sure do love to shit on other people's interpretation of canon.

Someone fucking said "people are making him trans to 'soften' him and make him more likeable" like holy shit???? Am I actually reading those words?? Someone being blatantly transphobic in the tD tag, where y'know, trans people wanna read posts about tD.

If you think making a character trans 'softens' him, that's literally the definition of transphobia, and that's something you need to work on. Trans men aren't Men Lite. We're not softer and more likeable than cis men. Shut the fuck up.

I feel so fucking sick after reading that. Fucking asshole piece of shit. I did not need to read that tonight, while I'm literally suffering from a 'trapped in the wrong body' flavour of gender dysphoria and S.I. and just TRYING TO FIND PEOPLE BEING NORMAL ABOUT TRANS ///// DIRK SINCE IT FEELS LIKE I'M THE ONLY PERSON WHO FUCKING CARES RIGHT NOW.

Whatever. I will blaze my own way down the tD path. I'm doing it for ME. Not for anyone else. Fucking rancid-ass take, get the fuck out. No one wants to see your whiny transphobic arguments against tD, IN THE TAG FOR TRANS //// DIRK. Keep your transphobia to yourself, or I am busting out the duct tape. (Duct tape=block button. Yes, I blocked them. Don't need that negativity in my blogging experience.)

((Do not talk to me about anything that happens after Homestuck proper. I do not perceive those things. I do not want to know about those things. They do not exist to me.))

PS. Oh, I absolutely love finding any canon evidence to make toxic male characters into trans men (Handso//me Ja/ck, Joh//nny Sil//verhand, Br/o Str/ider, etc... actually now that I line them up like that, Bro is totally tame and normal lmao, HJ is wayyy worse of a person and there's tons of canon evidence I can argue with...)

Anyway, transing the bad guys... It's my favourite passtime. I could not give a fuck what you think about that. I like my men toxic and trans. I don't give a fuck about having "good" representation, because a trans man is still a trans man when he's a toxic asshole. That's the point. Trans men are the same amount of man as cis men. So you can SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT NEEDING A 'SOFT' BOY FOR TRANS MEN'S REPRESENTATION. DO IT YOUR-FUCKING-SELF AND LEAVE THE TRANS //// DIRK TAG TO THOSE OF US WHO KNOW THE TRUTH.

#let me preface this by saying im internally bleeding from all my organs and in a really shitty pms/pmdd mood and cramping #transphobia #vent #im so fucking sick of trans men getting pushed aside bc were not man enough to have a voice in fandom/media #i seriously cannot believe someone said that were making dirk trans to soften him #makes me fucking sick to my stomach #i dont need more reminders that ill never be man enough for people who arent trans men #jfc i spend like 2 weeks back on tumblr and its already making me sick i didnt think iw as gonna find transphobia here in 2024 #remember the time someone told me i was transmisogynistic for saying mettat//on was a trans man? lmao #good times (not) #why cant people be normal about trans men for fuckkng once #rant #angry trans man grumbling #this probably needs tags but idk what they should be bc i dont want this to end up in the associated tags #if ppl havent seen what i just saw i dont want to remind them that transphobia abounds #Cori.exe #Post.exe #i literally feel like my organs are being scraped with a cheese grater #i wish i had a different body im so sick of end/ometriosis #my body is actively being transphobic against me and i am dealt this additional blow by fandom jackasses calling trans men soft #s m fucking h

shaking and crying im mildly inconvenienced. want to make sleeves for my crochet sweater im doing but i want the lines on the sleeve to run lengthwise AND i want to be able to decrease stitches so the best ive been able to come up with is either a) dont decrease and just do a double crochet but turn it on its side b) do a knit stitch which is ridiculous bc i can literally knit so c) knit it instead, except that if i knit it its gonna take much longer because my knitting tension is very tight, AND i hate doing swatch tests

#i did a swatch for the knit stitch and the dc on its side (and a 3c little cuff too) and oh my god the knit stitch takes #so long for so little jfc #im also like fully not good enough at crocheting to figure it out like this is my first real crochet project and like #its not hard its not like im doing anything tough esp since ive done knitting in the past so like #im pretty much making it up as i go i just dont have that many tools in my crochet toolbox just yet #and i just want these sleeves to be neutral cause the main body is already so involved #its a cardigan btw not a sweater but like same thing

[lesbienneanarchiste]

I am so fed up with knitting podcasters on YouTube like I stg my two criteria are 1) knits almost completely size-inclusive patterns if they make garments/don't constantly support designers who refuse to expand their size range and 2) don't knit solely with expensive yarn/have a huge stash of indie dyed/constantly "hauling" sweater quantities etc. Literally that is it. It's so easy to meet that criteria. And YET. Somehow I end up only finding people who think $17/50g is a "reasonably priced" yarn. Babe that's a high end 💀

#like. ive been knitting long enough to know thay $36 for 100g is a high end yarn jfc #$11/100g is already out of my price range most of the time but i would consider that 'reasonable' depending on fiber content. thats midtier #like.... get a fuckin grip #''reasonable'' is less than $10/100g come on now #and I've only found one podcaster who actually uses the same cheap shit i do from michaels and joann #like the people i follow still knit w shit i cannot afford #but at least theyre normal about it #disgruntled octopus
