Walking In Two Worlds & The Everlasting Road

YA sff set in the near future where an opensource augmented reality is commonly used like social media, and there’s also a completely virtual fantasy game version

follows an Anishinaabe girl who who’s the top player in the VR game, and is constantly fighting to keep her place against the misogynist neo-nazi group in second place

as well as her real life, dealing with being a shy and self-conscious teen growing up on the Rez, and her brother having cancer

and a Uyghur boy who’s moved to her community from China after finding acceptance in an online community (even when he doesn’t agree with their more extreme views) - but when he gets to know Bugz, he has to decide who truly deserves his loyalty

great mix of sff and culture, the future while also very real community traumas of the past (and present)

#walking in two worlds #the everlasting road #wab kinew #aroaessidhe 2024 reads #This has some REALLY interesting and important concepts! #I just think it could have used some more development… Obvs this is YA and I’m an adult I know I’m not quite the audience! #There’s a lot of depth in the setup of the characters but I feel like it skips a lot of the progression #I think there could have been space for more development in a lot of places to make the story feel more dimensional #- but also has so many plot threads that maybe that would have bulked it out too much #It does also jump around quite a bit between the different parts but I think that makes sense with how juggling with irl / online life. #she’s got a lot of internalised fatphobia at the start (and the love interest going “I don’t think you’re fat!!” when people call her fat.. #then in book 2 suddenly she’s okay about it - again I wish there was some progression! #her brothers cancer journey is. basically all offscreen lol mostly as set up for plot in book 2. so it doesn't have the emotional impact it #could have.. #I liked the way it integrates her culture into the game in a really cool way (though I would have liked more detail there) #also having auto language translators but they regularly don't translate quite right / still run into issues - realistic! #the parallels drawn between his being taken from his family and put in a state education school and Indigenous residential schools #the way that a future world will never be as separate from the past as ur average sff future often portrays #but yeah anyway lots of good ideas execution not so much for me..

So what I'm gathering on this Twitter discourse is it's a bunch of shitty stans that don't practice what they preach. Refusing to understand other cultures is very sus. Especially if they're going after cc's that don't speak English as their first language and they're trying to "cancel" people and not understanding those cultures because they look at it through their very American/British rose tinted glasses.

#qsmp #twitter discourse #twitter neg #educate dont harass ffs #it makes you look like the bigot #not everyone has time to be chronically online like you fuckers (people trying to cancel) #also i can make the american/british vomment without worry because i'm american #and not like the clowns shitting on people because of a cultural misunderstanding 🤡 #i love learning new cultures too much to shit on anyone besides shitheads #oh also i feel the need to mention i only use twitter to check eggstatistics so don't know who the fuck these people are lmao

words to use that don’t demonize personality disorders!

It seems that it’s becoming more and more common for people to label others and others’ behavior as “narcissistic”, “psychopathic”, “sociopathic”, etc., especially on platforms like TikTok, where lingo spreads quickly. People associate negative qualities with these real disorders and use them to criticize or insult other neurotypicals. These words are used as a way to instantly show that someone is a “bad” or “evil” person. In reality, having a personality disorder does not make you a bad person at all! It is damaging to these communities to continue spreading this dangerous rhetoric. People with these conditions are already more likely to experience abuse and ostracization along with the mental health issues they may go through. 

So, this is my list of words or phrases that people often mean instead of naming a condition. You can use these instead of referring to a personality disorder like the ones above and more. Feel free to add your own words! (Note: I do not have any of these conditions. Please correct me if I say something incorrect or offensive!)

This is a pretty long post, so I’ve put everything below the cut.

Crazy/Insane: These words aren’t truly connected to any specific disorder, but are still used to hurt people with personality disorders. They are very ingrained into our vocabulary and can be hard to remove. I’m currently working on it myself!

What you mean: wild, ridiculous, unlikely, wack, strange, odd, absurd, silly, preposterous, ludicrous 

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD): People often use phrases like “I’m/that’s so OCD” to indicate someone/thing that is clean or organized, sometimes to an extreme. 

What you mean: organized, clean/cleanliness, neat, hates mess, hates germs, healthy, coordinated, sanitized, tidy, orderly

Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD): People usually are referring to this disorder when they say words like “sociopath(ic)”, “psychopath(ic)”, “psycho”, and “psychotic”. This is used to indicate general “badness” and can be used to describe someone who has committed violent actions.

What you mean: violent, oppressive, unfriendly, mean, rude, unsympathetic, unkind, cold, unlikeable, bully, brutal, ruthless, murderous, cruel, barbaric, savage, harsh, threatening

Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD): I’ve seen this one all over recently. People use “narcissist” to instantly paint someone as a “bad” person. They usually use this term when the person is manipulative and/or egotistical.

What you mean: manipulative, egotistical, self-obsessed, uncaring, callous, calculating, devious, has ulterior motives, controlling, selfish, vain, shallow, self-centered, conceited, full of themself

Schizoid Personality Disorder: This one is hard to characterize, as “schizophrenic” is used to describe many types of behaviors. It is generally used to refer to someone they think is “crazy”. 

What you mean: unpredictable, irrational, illogical, eccentric, senseless, raving, raging, distraught, wild, frenzied

The R Slur: This harmful term is falling out of favor as the autistic community continues to advocate against people using it. People who still use it are usually aware that it is not a good word to use. However, I thought I’d include it anyway.

What you mean: autistic (if the person in question is genuinely on the spectrum, autistic is a perfectly fine label to use), disabled (same note), off-putting, abnormal, atypical, unusual, not going along with societal norms, bad decision, disagreeable, irregular, peculiar, out of the ordinary, bizarre, uncommon, unexpected

Bipolar Disorder: People usually use “bipolar” as a way to describe someone who has mood swings or is acting irrationally. They may also say things like “maniac” or “maniacal” to mean the same thing or to indicate violence. 

What you mean: irrational, illogical, moody, acting strange, unreasonable, silly, senseless, foolish, absurd, impractical, volatile, inconsistent, erratic, unreliable, temperamental, fiery, emotional, impulsive

Many of these terms are used as synonyms but have slightly different connotations for people who misunderstand these conditions. Sometimes people refer to others as “borderline” (borderline personality disorder [BPD]) to mean the same thing as “psychopath” or “bipolar”. Meanings can fluctuate and mean many different adjectives. Please use words and phrases like I have listed instead of continuing to stigmatize and demonize these real human beings who are completely deserving of love, respect, and dignity. Add your own words that you like to use (my favorite are wild and ridiculous) in the notes!

So a post popped up in my for you that was like this:

[Show] has a bunch of Queer Rep™ to talk about. [Blah blah blah blah blah about the show, characters are evil, evil stuff happens, blah blah blah blah blah...] And look! Some of them are queer! Kinky too! That's bad queer representation... right? [9 paragraphs of explanation as to why it's not bad]

I'm not going to argue with the thesis. But I am finding myself more and more and more incapable of reading stuff that's structured like this, with like... chatty, Twittery colloquialisms involved. I want people to write their Tumblr fandom essays like they're papers, with citations. I want them like this:

[Show] debuted on Netflix in 2021, to a tepid critical reception[1] and an explosive reaction from fandom[2]. Central to the fandom's concerns about [show] was its depiction of LGBT characters, focusing primarily on the character of X played by Y, and the character of A played by B. Fans expressed a belief that X and A were "being punished for being queer"[3] and "Showrunner needs to do better and stop trying to get diversity points"[4]. I will argue in this post that while [show] does have a range of critical issues worth being addressed, including a lack of screentime for women and underutilization of its characters of color (both issues addressed by my colleague castielstastybutt in their post [here]), its depiction of LGBT characters actually marks a step forward for queer representation in the [show] universe.

Otherwise, I just don't think I can take them seriously. Like, make the argument or don't but stop pretending we're buddies

#i find myself more and more and more and more rankled by people who approach a situation assuming i don't know things #whether that's interpersonally or just in a tumblr post #stop being cute about it. if you have something to say just say it #you're not educating me you're making an argument #i'm not saying i don't meme or can't be twittery #but i do think i've shed more and more of this stuff in how i communicate online #the older i get #i just have less and less use

[electrobiology]

this is going to be an annoying rant so feel free to ignore it but so actually are there no good universities in all of the united states that don't leave you in lifelong debt?????? like hello???????? everywhere i look at that seems interesting and doesn't have reviews talking about how no one cares about you and you're on your own the entire time you're there or the staff/students are -ist/-phobic or no one does work and just goes to parties or other such things they're talking about the expenses. i want a degree because i need one if i want to do anything but i don't know if i want it enough to be in debt for my whole life. and why is the us like this. i just want to go somewhere else this country does not seem worth it to me. i want to go back in time and find a way to sink every european colonizer ship that landed on the land of the americas

#genuinely the more i look at college prices the more reasonable it feels to just go overseas somewhere instead... japan #if i'm gonna be paying at LEAST 15000 a semester wherever i go why don't i go do that in japan where i'm actually passionate about the #language and have reasons to use it and a potential to do something with it and can get places without a car and. etc #and the 15000 semester is a 15000 YEAR #only reasons the idea of being in america has ever appealed in the slightest to me is that it's a little easier to be openly queer #in certain places. not all of them! #and it's probably one of the most racially diverse places #whenever i look online people say that degrees in japan aren't worth anything but i feel that might just be them being racist #surely there are numerous people who went and got degrees in japan and are living happily. and idk bc they aren't on reddit #or posting on blogs or anything #god i feel UGHHHHH i hate everything #i know that as a Country with History japan is not particularly better than the us i know #but it's just the small things like being able to get places w/o cars and not have to pay an arm and a leg to heal like a small cut i got #that needs to be stitched. or not paying my whole body to pay off the debt of going to college because getting an education is #just not what they. want from you. they want your soul and your entire life in their hands #why am i living in this world #1 am thoughts i know but god

you know in my ap us history/ap government classes something that comes up in the videos they have us watch as homework assignments is how governments & especially fascist regimes will use children's education as a tool to mass-brainwash the impressionable youth into believing in their ideology while cutting off their access to outside information & resources that would contradict and completely disintegrate that line of thinking, and being the thg girlie that i am i immediately thought "hey that sounds familiar, pretty much what happened to the career tributes" and after that i was like "oh. that's literally suzanne's entire point!! right."

#even the US did this during wwi and literally took away their beloved constitutional freedom of speech when it didn't benefit the war effort #the constitution: yeah people should be say what they wish (within reason) because that is literally the founding principle of liberty #the US during a war when people disagreed with the draft: yeah how about no #i wouldn't goso far as to call it fascist that is not the correct word (i don't think I'd be able to publish this post online if the US was #but like ??? 'freedom of speech but not when it's inconvenient for us' 💀💀💀 #the hunger games #the ballad of songbirds and snakes #the career tributes #listen no matter how you feel about them as characters (even katniss saw them as jerks which they kind of were) #if you were raised from literal infancy/toddlerhood to think that murder was super cool and great #and had no reliable resources or education telling you otherwise #I mean. anybody in that situation would have turned out just as bad as cato was according to katniss #they weren't going to grow a moral conscience they deadass had no frame of reference to be like 'wait maybe the ideas we grew up believing #in our whole life are actually?? wrong and oppressive????? #cato hadley #clove kentwell #district 1 #district 2 #anna speaks

I was watching a YouTube video about making zines and the person ended it with a call to action to be informed about Palestine and was like "And what better way than by reading zines???" There are. Um. Better ways...

#like zines can be very good educational resources #but also there is absolutely no editorial oversight and people can just Say Whatever and then print their zines/put them online #so yeah no #zines should not be your primary source of information when there are more reliably vetted sources available #there are many better ways to educate yourself about this particular issue! #and it is much too important to learn about through what could just be some randomer's hot takes! #right on the heels of the james somerton scandal this seems very naive ngl #also like I know I haven't posted much about palestine #but like 1) I do not think that me posting about it on tumblr dot com wields all that much power and influence politically #2) I do not want to use the negligible power and influence I DO have to spread misinformation #and I am too upset by all this to fact check everything reliably #and 3) my blog is not the newspaper and I should not be anyone's source of information on current events #so I am not going to try and be that and get too upset to use tumblr at all #I don't use twitter precisely because it's wall to wall distressing stuff about current events

i'm not a world politics expert by any means but it kinda feels like if you know that hamas' violence against civilians is unacceptable and horrific and needs to be stopped, it should be a quick mental jump from that to admitting that israel "fighting back" by doing worse to palestinian civilians is also unacceptable and horrific and needs to be stopped.

genocide is always wrong, violence against civilians is always wrong. but doing this "israel is fighting back against hamas, that's why it's okay that they're cracking down on gaza" song and dance is a disgusting reaction. if you can understand that american imperialism is wrong and often nurtures the very terrorists the US was supposedly there to stop by visiting horrors upon the civilians of the countries it invades and radicalizing them, then you also fundamentally understand why israel is responsible for hamas.

no reblogs and shit on this one, i'm not opening the floor for debate on whether or not it's proportional "retribution" to commit genocide, you can just block me. i have no delusions that this will meaningfully help anyone or anything, i just won't be considered a "safe" person for zionists.

#bog post #i don't really ~do~ international politics on my social media #not bc i don't have strong feelings about it #but because i'm not sufficiently educated and don't have a relevant perspective on a lot of it #not to the extent that i think my contributions to the conversation online are useful #but it feels important at this point to invite zionists and israel sympathizers to please fuck off #and if criticism of israel openly committing war crimes and genocide feels to you like antisemitism #1) no it's not; 2) ask yourself if justifying genocide is something you really want to be doing in any circumstance #'but bog what about the related rise of antisemitism in other countries in direct response to this situation?' good question! #that's also fucked up and wrong #but just like how you can be anti-gov't in the US and be hypercritical of far right christianity's impact on bigotry and violence in americ #you can also be hypercritical of israel without being antisemitic #hope that helps

[swordformike]

maaaaaybeeeee you should educate yourself on israel before speaking on noah schnapp lolz

#i dont mean this in a pro-Zionist way #i mean if you dont understand the problem with ‘partying and having fun in Israel’ fucking EDUCATE yourself and stop acting like israel isn #that big of a deal #maybe he DID go to meet family #or ‘reconnect with his roots’ #but he is constantly associating himself with zionists #and even took a picture with israeli militiary #STOP fucking acting like this is ‘chronically online’ or twitter discourse you idiots #also stop using zionism as an excuse to be antisemitic and homophobic to him lol #noah schnapp

I think it is important to remember that while Ellie does not know many movies, songs, or other cultural aspects that existed before the outbreak, she is overall an incredibly smart and well-read person! She knows her science!

Yes, she will probably have no idea who Queen is but she isn't stupid. There is at *least* a high school level collection of knowledge in her head, probably more in some areas she is especially interested in.

Writing her as not knowing basic bodily functions or absolutely elementary science level info is not only inaccurate but also incredibly infantilizing, and the latter is already an existing problem based on ableist stereotypes that I have no interest in seeing exacerbated by people not putting more thought into their headcanons/writing. If people are interested or curious I can make a whole post on the age regression aspects of her cptsd and how to handle it responsibly and with grace, but tl;dr if you do not know how to write it without making real people who go through it feel like shit, don't do it.

You can do with the character as you want but as soon as you publicly share those headcanons you have a responsibility to not spread harmful misinformation or be offensive in any way.

#alex yells at the void #the last of us #tlou #ellie williams #fedra fucking sucks but a) people still need an education to be useful #and b) ellie reads. she has access to books. she probably read as a coping mechanism whenever she could #which is one of the reasons why she is so prone to dissociation and completely turns off after silver lake #once your brain gets used to using dissociation as a first response to stress it will keep doing it #give that girl a book and she'll absorb that knowledge like a sponge #(a psychology one would probably be pretty helpful at this point lol) #as always if you feel defensive or get upset over this have a good look at why #this is also as always NOT directed at ANYONE SPECIFICALLY #this is purely based on a variety of things i see online sometimes #and as someone who deeply fucking cares about mental health and especially trauma #i cannot just sit in silence when i KNOW that i can say something on the topic #that many people really need to hear

embracing misogynistic stereotypes as quirky online jokes so desperate are some of you for the touch of the patriarchy you'll moan at a slap

You know I do mind my business when it comes to the majority of forms of queer discourse FOR A VARIETY OF REASONS, but mostly because it is always So Dumb. Never has any nuance, never helps anyone, makes the lives better of absolutely zero people, and can actually have negative effects on the internal queer community as well as the external view of it. ‘Infighting is at best redundant, at worst harmful’ type of thing.

But every now and then a little something something will get me. Which is usually the absolute pride that someone has in being a bigot or an exclusionist, while also being apart of the queer community. Almost always going hand in hand with the blatant distrust of people in your own community to be genuine and know how they themselves identify. The almost competition to not seem like ‘one of those gays’ that fall outside of what is considered a societally acceptable way to be queer, as well as what that person specifically considers to be an acceptable way to be queer according to their own personal understanding of gender and sexuality.

The pungent audacity just turns on such a primal level of disgust and vitriol in me that throws all my anger management practice out the window.

You’re boring and unoriginal by contributing in the exact same stifling of queer voices and identity that cishet people have been doing for hundreds of years and calling it a hot take with pride.

#anyways it’s fine #rant post #i just 😭😭😭😭 #and it is usually 1. online and/or 2. from a young or newly out queer person #and I understand why those misconceptions happen at that stage in a lot of peoples identity discovery journey #and it is not in anyway the individuals fault #it’s largely having no real education or resources and being forced to use the internet for an incredibly complex and nuanced topic #and people want to understand new things. it’s easy to put things in boxes and simplify them! we’ve all been there! #but at the expense of steam rolling other peoples’ identities in your own community 😬 #where my true anger comes from is the arrogance and inability to learn and grow or be understanding to people who aren’t you #it’s just frustrating and upsetting to me on a very deep level #and to be even more specific -> #everytime I see that stupid ‘smth I’m not afraid to admit as a lesbian’ TikTok meme I know I’m about to see some of the most vile takes eve #vent post #queer discourse
