Hello I’ve been thinking about posting this for a couple days and please feel free to call me out if needed Yesterday I saw the long list of celebrities who signed the pro Israel open letter to Biden and although most of the names weren’t that surprising there were a few that had me shocked. As more celebrities reveal themselves as pro Israel/zionst a question has been bouncing around in my head that I want peoples opinion on so if anyone actually sees this please answer honestly. I know that I should be worrying about more important things and worst things are happening in the world then this. The question is it acceptable to still like/support a character while disliking the actor? Or does separating the actor from the character work in this situation?

Mildly irksome thing that it never fells right to call out when I see it, because it is never not an irrelevant tangent to do so that would undermine the core point of a statement I otherwise agree with, but. Please, for the love of all that is holy, stop citing principles of the US (so-called) Justice System when trying to argue fairness or ethics. So much of it is actively bad for community-level harm-prevention.
Demanding the right to face your accuser is a very easy way for violent abusers to retain access to their victims for long periods. In the US legal system it is actually a very serious problem that victims traumatized by various kinds of abuse aren't able to begin healing until after a trial finishes, often years after the event itself, because of continued re-exposure.
Likewise, the demand for evidence proving guilt "beyond a reasonable doubt" routinely allows truly horrid criminals to continue violating the law because they are smart enough to leave that reasonable doubt behind.
And in a system like the US legal system, those sorts of costs are acceptable and even necessary, because the system itself wields the state monopoly on violence and does so dispassionately and without sympathy.
I'm not going to pretend that community-level consequences aren't harmful, but shunning, banning from a forum, blocking on social media, etc. is not on the scale of felony convictions that land you in prison and bar you from having stable work for the rest of your life.
There's plenty of ways to disagree with a callout or a mass reporting campaign and even to publicly push back at it without calling on abstract principles designed to limit the violent power of the US courts. It's not a valid argument when racists and capitalist apologists do it, and I have to believe that we can all collectively do better.

Me when a senior at my school is continously hitting in me (I told him it makes me feel uncomfortable and sick to myself stomach and he just said something about the age of consent or whatever)

This may be a bit of a vent post. Not blaming or judging anyone involved, but I feel weird about it so I wanna ramble a bit.
Couple months ago, me and Vyd befriended a sprout bard. We like to be involved in our server's bard community, so supporting a new bard is something we do.
We listened to him whenever he was playing, we'd greet him when we saw him out and about. We even got an invite to his eternal bonding ceremony! He seemed really nice, and we were always very hyped to see him around.
Yesterday, seemingly out of the blue, I got a tell from him saying something along the lines of "We've known each other for a while now, but we haven't talked much. You've barely spoken to me personally and I think it's best we cut ties. You and Vyd are afk a lot and don't really spend time with me, and it's not what I'm looking for in a friend.".
I'm- I... What?
I'm genuinely sorry he feels let down by us, but at the same time neither of us knew he had this expectation of us. And we certainly did not have the expectation to become his best friend like that. Also to solely put the blame on us being too distant, when he hasn't made any effort to become closer friends either is a bit odd.
Maybe it's just me, but I don't see every interaction in this game as an opportunity to build long-lasting and deep connections with what are essentially strangers on the internet. Occasionally there will be some people you end up close to (like my FC and Vyd, of course), but if I had to actively befriend every familiar face in New Gridania I'd probably die.
Anyway, I wish this guy all the best with whatever he's going through.
But that was WEIRD.

Writing Woes
So, I have a Zach x Violet one shot I want to post, and I want to start writing again in general, but I’m terrified of writing now, because of backlash and comments I’ve received, because of fear for what will happen if I write what I want to write, because it’s just so difficult for me to write…I just don’t know how to get past my fears.
I want to write Zach and Violet’s story as I see it, and parts of this story/components of the are for a mature audiences. I would of course label the stories with any trigger warnings and such accordingly. But the fear that I’ll still be called out and blacklisted consumes me.
And I’ve also been confronted with the reality that a lot of what I want to write is nearly impossible to write because my sexuality has changed… I’m still demi, but I’m now demisexual and demiromantic I think, and intimacy in any form (I literally mean hugging and kissing, connecting to my f/os in any physical way, even connecting to them emotionally) is nearly repulsive for me after the trauma I experienced with my ex. And my ex telling me my love for Zach/ The Grinch was evil and sinful has truly catered me emotionally/ driven me from them.
It’s just so hard, I just want to write 😔. Because being comforted by my f/os through writing is how I find my strength.
So, if any of you have any advice I’d appreciate it…but no pressure, this is me just trying to get my emotions out.

It's been such a rough couple weeks for me ngl.. I got "promoted" at work a month ago but haven't yet gotten my measley raise .75 cent CAD on my paycheck so I'm just working twice as hard for no fucking reason. There is so much more expected of me and even w/the raise I haven't gotten I'll be making less than the last guy who had the title, and doing 3x as much work. My cat has kidney disease and costs me $300/month to keep her alive n comfortable so I can't afford to start over at another job. My boyfriend has been out of country for a month so I'm all alone in the apartment and it's very hard to find the motivation to feed myself n stuff.. and yeah, I lost 2 rats within 3 days of each other, from old age. But I'm still so fucking sad about it.. the first one died while I was at work and I had to bury him in the middle of the night and the second one, one of my favorites died while I was asleep and I had to bury him in the rain and then rush off to work right after. No time to really grieve or process. My car needs work but i can't muster up the mental strength for phone calls today but if i don't it might break down when i drive 6 hrs to airport on wednesday. So i have to find a shop to fix the transmission today. I have to. I feel so genuinely alone. Especially after loosing so many pets. I don't really have friends anymore since I move around so much and don't use social media to keep in contact w/em. I have discord friends but since I'm always working,, idk it's hard. I'm friends with my co workers at least, but any of them could quit or be fired with no warning, so. I forgot where I was going with this and I need to get out of bed and make phone calls and clean and get groceries

eugh . Rambling for a bit but I got re-put onto my highschool adhd meds again after not being on it for about 3 years and it also ended up like. Artblock started when I started taking them again and its been like . A month? Now? And im starting to wonder if the reason I was barely able to produce more then a couple doodles a week all throughout highschool was due to my meds
Like the first week was fine and great I had energy but now its like. Where did all my motivation from the past 6 months go..... Guh. I have so many art things I NEED to do but I just can't find the motivation to do anything, even at my usual motivation times [late at night]

I think a lot of my life is just trying to get attention and love in some roundabout away since I can't ( or at least haven't really ever) get it directly. But that tends to end up failing, too.
I want to be good at art because I want people to love something I've made. Because then they're loving the piece of me in it. So when I can't create anything, it's upsetting.
I used to desperately want people to like my dozens of OCs for the same reasons, I guess. Or at least be interested in them. Because that's at least tangentially interested in me. But, in order to actually bring them into any state to be shared with others, I had to rely on someone else. Someone who would have to already care about them as much as I did. And that wasn't anything that would ever happen. Which hammered home the original issue of not feeling I could be or create anything that could be cared about the way I care about things.
So I got rid of all of them. Because it was easier than dealing with feeling we were both unloveable. But now it kind of hurts to have nothing of my own. The closest thing I had was an AU version of a character I was in an RP server for that I really adored, but it ended up that my presence and actions there were so deeply upsetting for so many other members that it destroyed the entire server to the point it still couldn't recover even after I left and was abandoned completely. Which obviously feels bad for multiple reasons, especially since I wasn't a founding member which means I ruined it for the people who had been in it far longer than I had.
I guess it wouldn't matter so much to me that I can't make art if I felt that I was anything someone could find beautiful or incredible, myself. I could never be something as beautiful as what I wish I could create. But there'd be enough of me in it that praise would still feel like love.
