To love a fictional character so much that you're ready to put all your values aside for him, to justify him, to defend him, his actions...damn what happened to you girl!

#there are only few characters like that #justifying not so #but defending them #because they're not really main characters #Perhaps they are #Perhaps they're not #I'm talking about #arthur pendragon #bbc Arthur #ofc #and some others #from different fandoms #i love Merlin #but i love Arthur more #i love gwen #and #morgana #but again #i love Arthur more #Feminism #what feminism? #where Arthur is concerned #idc about any women rights #even if it's the queen herself 🤧 #why I'm like this

Things I remember watching as a little kid that explain a lot about me:

Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988): Baby's First Film Noir, courtesy of my older brother but more likely thanks to our mother who loves noir and mysteries and crime dramas. The story itself has a hard boiled detective have to buddy-cop his way through to help clear the name of a cartoon rabbit actor while the Rabbit is hounded by the cartoon weasel secret police and the human judge who rules over Toontown.

Serial Experiments Lain (1998): An anime series where a young girl slowly delves deeper and deeper into the internet and... okay there is a lot going on and don't want to risk spoilers, but it's a mindscrew with lots of tech stuff going on. One part scifi, one part psychological horror, and with a nice big dose of ??????. How I was able to follow it when I was that age I still don't know but I blame Dad's love of time travel.

The Neverending Story (1984): It is a story about a young boy who finds a magical book that shows an adventure of the countless many that could take place within that world to the reader. The adventure he reads is about Atreyu going on a journey to save the world from the Nothing and asking various figures of renown for help.

Sliders (1995): The TV show starts off with the main character Mallory creating a near-magic super science device that will allow him to create portals to other worlds. He shows it off to his teacher, Arturo, and through shenanigans they and a local/famous musician named Rembrandt Brown are forced to randomly hop across alternate Earths to try and find their way back home.

The Great Mouse Detective (1986): As a love letter to various detective series but especially Sherlock Holmes, it shows a world where sapient mice in an otherwise normal human society are running around mirroring the humans. A little girl mouse's toymaker father is abducted by a strange bat, so she runs and manages to gain the help of Basil of Baker Street. She gets the help of Dawson (Mouse Watson) who much like the human just returned home from war on foreign soil and he winds up befriending the detective.

The Meaning of Life (1983): Could I have picked a better image for the Monty Python film? Yes. Why didn't I? Because this scene is the one lodged in my brain. The film itself is an anthology of assorted skits much like the troupe's tv show.

There's a lot more especially later but these are the immediate things I can think of. The only thing I specifically picked out myself was Lain. Everything else was either my parents, my uncle, or my older brother.

Quick PSA never read a sad book in public, I as reading the seven husbands of Evelyn Hugo and I started crying so much that the girl across from me doing her homework kept staring at me wondering why I was so emotional.

after a lot of rejection and mistreatment from my high school ex-friends, i think it’s so ridiculous and stupid sounding that i have to turn my new friends down on watching sonic fandubs and cars movies because i have mini-trauma about one of my high school acquaintances who loved that sort of thing. personal history is WILD

#i'm completely serious about all this. i also told myself i'd avoid the topic of that rejection in college so they have no idea #why i'm like this

I have a public speaking practice in my school and I always calm on things and manage times normally. But public speaking this year is kinda making me nervous. It's rare that I'm being shy but I am painfully shy for the public speaking this year. The lighting in the room that was recording me was to bright for my comfort. I am still practicing and it's 2:38 which mean it's already Tuesday,and I'm not sleeping yet. I'm gonna be an absolute idiot.

Seein' too many Twitter refugees asking if they'll get in trouble for saying "kill yourself" to people and while no, you're not gonna get nuked from orbit, that is maybe something you just shouldn't be doing in general perhaps?? Maybe telling people to kill themselves is bad actually?? Some of y'all are wild, why is the first thing you can think to ask on a new platform if you can send one of the worst kinds of harassment to people?? Grow tf up and learn how to use the block button. It'll do wonders for your mood, trust me.

#this is the real cringe behavior #also you'll get reported if you do this it's actually against the rules #why do you want to do that?? #I've never felt the need to say that to anyone ever #is there a joke I'm missing out on like wtf is wrong with you #twitter #twitterpocalypse #suicide mention #ask to tag

I just wanna say bc I KNOW you're somewhere on tumblr, to the teenage girl who attended Take Your Kid To Work Day at an office building in Ontario, Canada circa 2013 and had a conversation with a middle aged woman in which you showed her your Black Veil Brides fanart and fanfics and ship content and told her about different fanfic tropes including a/b/o verse bc she happened to know who Panic! at The Disco and Fallout Boy were and thus you felt the need to show her your bandblr ship art, that was my fucking mother and I had to clarify all that to her including looking my mother in the eye and trying to explain a/b/o verse without sounding like a lunatic.

It's been 10 years and I still regularly sent evil energies in your direction. Since you'd be probably two years younger than me and thus legally an adult now, please know if this post reaches you it's on sight.

#she cornered me in the car and asked what shipping was and i almost had a fucking heart attack #imagine being like 16 years old and habing to explain knotting to your mother #random emo music girl I'm glad you had fun talking about your Band Guys to my mother #bc i also attended take your kid to work day at that office and i know how boring it was #but christ alive why did you have to fuck me like that? #anyways i hope this post reaches you so at the very least you know i think about you at least once a week #this has been weighing on me for ten years #im almost tempted to blaze this post

calling my lover "mine" but not in the way that my toothbrush or notebook are mine, mine in the way my neighborhood is mine, and also everybody else's, "mine" like mine to tend to, mine to care for, mine to love. "mine" not like possession but devotion.

#nonbinary love #nblnb yearning #nb4nb #nblnb #wholesomeposting #yearning hours #ive been thinking about how some languages dont have a possessive tense #so you dont say “i have a thing” but rather “a thing is by me” #and like im not usually one for psycho linguistics and like critical thoughts etc etc etc #but i really like the framework of responsibility/commitment rather than ownership #i think about this mostly in terms of ecology #and relation to land #but i also love it as it applies to language shared between lovers #like i LOVE calling them mine or for them to call me theirs #but i'm also nonmonog and that was kinda weird to square for a while #and it clicked one time when i was talking about my neighborhood and i was like well #when i say my neighborhood or my city it's understood i'm not taking it away from anybody else #its understood i just mean the city where i live #so why cant we apply the same to lovers? #mine in the way i want to show up for you again and again #ok #done now

Enough random notes that have a written story on them as environmental storytelling, explore the space, get crazier with it.

You move into a house and aw cute, it has the kids height on the walls but you notice there's a three foot difference in height between measurements, you check the date, they're a month apart. The final measurement is on the ceiling. It's dated two days ago.

You're part of a recovery team that have finally found a stranded ship, they were found too late and have all passed a long time ago. They all died of starvation. You enter their storeroom, it's filled with food. In the dining hall you find the tables laden with perfectly fine looking breads, cakes, cured meats, jams, candies. Your medic says all the people sitting at the table didn't eat a Thing.

You wake up in an apocalypse. You can't find anyone at all as you wander the streets but you do hear faint music playing from somewhere. You stumble into a supermarket, to see all the aisles still full, except for the shelf that was full of ear plugs, which look to be the only thing that was looted.

Like there's light, sound, props. Having a street where every house is decimated except for One. Landing on a planet known for having No Water and a plant is growing and you don't know where it could have possibly gotten moisture from but you can't find the citizens Anywhere.

I'm sorry, I'm just kinda over the "graffiti on the wall to show the bad guy is around". That's not environmental storytelling that's just normal story. Show me I'm in the villains territory by the rain suddenly cutting out above me as I'm driving, even though it's meant to be raining all night. I park the car and step out, and realise the constellations are Wrong, until I see they're Not constellations, they're the blinking lights of a massive ship-

I Will stop now because everytime I go to write a sentence it devolves into another prompt but I'm just saying we have a Lot of senses, engage them, show me the Environment in environmental storytelling.

It's still surprising to see people say that when they see the upcoming strike post I made that this is the first time they're hearing about it, especially because I've seen several posts now talking about the same strike.

That being said: regardless of what kind of blog you are, please spread the news about the genocide, the strikes, boycotts, etc.

Even if you are a small blog, spreading word allows for more people to know what's going on and also do their part in protests and strikes, and maybe even the right people will be able to do more than what you're able to do.

And reminder: there is an upcoming strike on February 18th-25th. Prepare accordingly, protest, boycott, call your reps, and spread the word so more people are aware.

#ceasefire now #free palestine #palestine #it still stuns me because i can count maybe 3 different posts myself included that has all the information about the strikes #and just this morning someone rb mine saying this is the first time theyre hearing of it #do you see why its important to keep talking? #i'm not going to apologize for suddenly posting this midway through clearing my likes. it's important #free gaza #gaza #congo #free congo
