i just can’t take anyone who says an idol can’t sing seriously…. or just calling them untalented in general

#like… i’ve never come across an untalented idol but ok #i think people equate “not my taste” with “bad”#which is just not true

When people don't have the exact same interpretation of a character that i do

#this is in fact about john doe from telltale batman #i do want to say that people can ofc have their own interpretation of characters #so if they want to view john a certain way yeah thats completely fine #it can just personally irk me that it feels like a lot of people.. ignore this whole character ark in episode 5 #john became his own person and found his own beliefs and personality and style #and he STOPPED idolising bruce as much #like... that was his WHOLE progression #and it can be... frustrating watching people ignore that and continue to base his personality on john doe in like... episode 2 or 3 #telltale batman #theres nothing wrong with doing that... it just often reduces his character down to 'uwu innocent baby who thinks bruce can do no wrong'#which is just not true #OH OH sidenote but john is also INTELLIGENT and OBSERVANT and people forget that a lot

"be very careful when buying resin items as most are not food safe"

Short answer: Not true*

Long answer:...Maybe**

*epoxy resins are obviously toxic before they have been cured but once they ARE cured and become "inert plastics" they meet FDA standards for contact with food. Even if they are not "fda certified" you don't really need to worry about it.

**If an epoxy manufacturer goes the route of official FDA certification they need to make sure that even pre-cure, it has low amounts of certain chemicals. Non-certified epoxies will have larger amounts of BPA than food-safe ones. However if you are *really* worried about BPA you should probably not be using ANY plastic food containers/bottles/utensils, bc it's everywhere. One resin cup— probably not a make-it-or-break-it type deal.

#saw a post about If You Put Food On Resin #It Will Kill You So So Fast #which is just not true #lll

I really do worry about Doctor Who fans that insist there was never anything sexist or racist about Classic Who because dear god is there a lot of bad shit there. It was progressive in some ways, but incredible problematic in others, but a lot of people just point blank refuse to even acknowledge that or dismiss it because "It wasn't seen as racist at the time". Many just will not accept that the things they love can be deeply flawed.

#doctor who #dw #tuat pointing and laughing at how iffy the show used to be certainly put many on the defensive #to the point they insist one never said anything even remotely sexist #which is just not true #the doctor often said or did sexist things back then #some were obvious others more subtle #and many of its attempts to be less sexist were clumsily executed #that doesn't mean it never did anything right #but it was a show written directed and produced almost exclusively by white men for its entire run #and boy does it show

Are all boomers really boring? I just get so bored hearing boomers talk. Like, I don’t need to listen for 10 minutes about which mills are where and what they created. I don’t care.

#personal #vent #for awhile this made me think other adults are boring #which is just not true

Why can’t my brain just let me enjoy things?

#I’m so proud of all the records broken #but I’m already worrying if it doesn’t happen with whatever comes next it’ll be that same mindset that anything less is a colossal failure #which is just not true #look at Lover which didn’t exceed Rep in numbers but is still fucking incredible #or evermore that couldn’t keep up with her older sister because she didn’t have physical copies #shut up brain and enjoy shit

because sometimes there are invisible tests and invisible rules and you're just supposed to ... know the rule. someone you thought of as a friend asks you for book recommendations, so you give her a list of like 30 books, each with a brief blurb and why you like it. later, you find out she screenshotted the list and send it out to a group chat with the note: what an absolute freak can you believe this. you saw the responses: emojis where people are rolling over laughing. too much and obsessive and actually kind of creepy in the comments. you thought you'd been doing the right thing. she'd asked, right? an invisible rule: this is what happens when you get too excited.

you aren't supposed to laugh at your own jokes, so you don't, but then you're too serious. you're not supposed to be too loud, but then people say you're too quiet. you aren't supposed to get passionate about things, but then you're shy, boring. you aren't supposed to talk too much, but then people are mad when you're not good at replying.

you fold yourself into a prettier paper crane. since you never know what is "selfish" and what is "charity," you give yourself over, fully. you'd rather be empty and over-generous - you'd rather eat your own boundaries than have even one person believe that you're mean. since you don't know what the thing is that will make them hate you, you simply scrub yourself clean of any form of roughness. if you are perfect and smiling and funny, they can love you. if you are always there for them and never admit what's happening and never mention your past and never make them uncomfortable - you can make up for it. you can earn it.

don't fuck up. they're all testing you, always. they're tolerating you. whatever secret club happened, over a summer somewhere - during some activity you didn't get to attend - everyone else just... figured it out. like they got some kind of award or examination that allowed them to know how-to-be-normal. how to fit. and for the rest of your life, you've been playing catch-up. you've been trying to prove that - haha! you get it! that the joke they're telling, the people they are, the manual they got- yeah, you've totally read it.

if you can just divide yourself in two - the lovable one, and the one that is you - you can do this. you can walk the line. they can laugh and accept you. if you are always-balanced, never burdensome, a delight to have in class, champagne and glittering and never gawky or florescent or god-forbid cringe: you can get away with it.

you stare at your therapist, whom you can make jokes with, and who laughs at your jokes, because you are so fucking good at people-pleasing. you smile at her, and she asks you how you're doing, and you automatically say i'm good, thanks, how are you? while the answer swims somewhere in your little lizard brain:

how long have you been doing this now? mastering the art of your body and mind like you're piloting a puppet. has it worked? what do you mean that all you feel is... just exhausted. pick yourself up, the tightrope has no net. after all, you're cheating, somehow, but nobody seems to know you actually flunked the test. it's working!

aren't you happy yet?

#almost wrote the champagne line as ''effervescent'' but legit could not write it without saying ''effervescent like a snail''#ah tumblr...#writeblr #warm up #idk . having trouble writing rn #ps i don't like to talk about it . it is my medical information. but before you ask. yes this is about being on the spectrum #i really don't like when ppl make my writing about how im [whatever ID]. i want it to ring true for the people who it rings true for #i don't want it to be like ''awwwww look at this person!!! she's the EXCEPTION!!! :)" .....#no.... not really.....#idk something gross happens whenever i admit to certain conditions and i turn into like inspiration p*rnography #like yes they actually let us use keyboards these days #furthermore i just... dont feel comfortable talking about this part of me. i had too bad of a childhood. adhd is one thing...#this one im like. still coming to terms with. which is like. my own journey.#idk. just please be kind. some things are more private than others. this one feels private to me.#i do not know how to help others w/this . and i do not know how to help myself. i will talk about it if im ever ready. idk if that will #actually ever happen #ty in advance i love u im kissing you we are kissing somewhere on the spectrum

At my job we have a TV in the breakroom that plays announcements from the company, news of events, and company propaganda (no I am not kidding).

Last month's propaganda piece featured the company's CEO bragging about the corporation making 5 Billion dollars in profits, and that it was all because of the employees (that he only pays $13 an hour). They played this video every 5 minutes and repeated it twice in a row each time, once with English subtitles, and the second time with Spanish subtitles.

This month's propaganda is about Open Door Policy. They also play this one back to back every 5 minutes. Wonder why that is

#hint: its a method corporations use to convince underpaid employees not to unionize #they use it as an excuse #they say if employees unionize then they can't talk to their managers like they can with open door policy #which is just not true #my last job was union and I could easily go to my boss to talk about problems or concerns #the reason why companies pretend you can't have both is because if your boss decides to do fuckall you can take matters up higher #to your union rep to force the company to get shit done #vs with open door policy managers and higher ups can just agree with whatever you need then never follow thru #also I think its reaaaal bold for the CEO to make a vid bragging about 5 billion dollars in PROFITS for the company #thats the extra money btw. the money that's left after paying bills and workers #5 BILLION #and cashiers get $13 to start in my area. I've heard in some areas it starts at $11. and in others its $9 #coordinators (step above a cashier which is what I am) get $1 more. key holders which are even higher get $2 more than a cashier #our raises are usually 13-40 cents once a year #I'm almost certain the CEO realized he fucked up which is why he made the open door policy video #because the vid talking about the company's 5 billion dollars radicalized a lot of people #even in my store we've been passing around the idea of unionizing (hough its mostly a job but the conversation is beginning to turn serious #also the video is followed up by a “mission statement” talking about open door policy in writing #which is also shown in both English and Spanish #that mission statement + the vid are the only things currently showing on the tv. usually there'd be other stuff #so you know it's serious #anyways I just thought this would be fun to talk about

The leftism/anticapitalism leaving people's bodies the zeptosecond you imply that disabled people who aren't "productive" still matter in society and need to be treated like intrinsic equals who have a place in this world:

#disability #disability advocacy #described images #image description in alt #ableism #ableism tw #my full-time job is my disability and you're lucky that i am still 'productive' as-is #your boss doesn't care that you think you're superior for being hired by them. they're still going to treat you like profit machines #it astounds me how people will capitulate for oppression because they place their intrinsic value in their ability to be at the top...#...or at least 'at the top' compared to others. it's the same impulse that makes people think their cisgender status makes them superior...#...you are placing your worth into systems which not only oppress others but offer you no true sense of worth...#...ESPECIALLY if you're also being exploited (even if just a bit)...#...you have a job sure but... do you actually get treated like a human being? are you actually paid? are you actually safe?...#...if the answer to any of those questions and more is 'no' then why do you place your value in capitalistic production. genuinely.#and why would you DEMAND disabled people to have the same exploitation you experience. why do you DEMAND productivity if you are proletaria #yes being a leftist and anticapitalist are linked but. some people still internalize capitalism without questioning it #being a leftist is about challenging that rather than assuming you're correct i think #also scientists were very silly when describing time that's like. less than a millisecond i think

Hot take but… “Gale was a teen soldier who got brainwashed, by a manipulative dictator, into the idea that sacrificing a small number of troops was worth it to definitively stop the government that had spent years ruining the lives of him and his people” and “Gale’s gross disregard for human life directly led to the death of Prim and thousands of other civilians including children, and Katniss is justified in her anger and has no obligation to ever forgive him” are two statements that can and should coexist together.

#the hunger games #I feel so often Gale just gets painted as this one dimensional villain that was just hiding his true evil all along #which is dumb #but the only people who I ever see defend him are the ones that think what happened was just an accident and Katniss should’ve forgive him #which is even worse #katniss and gale #katniss everdeen #gale hawthorne

Fwoom (intimidatingly)
