thoughts on polyamory?
thanks for asking! first of all, I think love is weakness by another name and you should be killing everyone with your demon blade
the reading comprehension on this site is awful. the true power is in the demon blade. that's how it kills everyone.
in case anyone was wondering how I’m feeling about the pitt being back.

I’m on my fucking knees
People need to stop treating my roommate like she's my Breakup Secretary when I've made it abundantly clear I don't want to talk to them.
I ended two friendships at the end of the year because they were making me really unhappy and stressed out.
The first person sent a whole big Thing to my roommate which began with "I know this is probably a boundary violation, BUT-"
The second person's girlfriend - who I don't like and have never liked - messaged my roommate on CHRISTMAS MORNING to demand information "to stop [ex-friend] from spiraling".
NONE OF THESE THINGS are making me feel like I was incorrect in ending either friendship.
One of the better parts of the Johnlock thing was how the fandom absolutely hated Elementary and kept saying that clearly they only made Watson a woman to not make their relationship gay and that obviously the showrunner was lying about them staying platonic the entire series. Then Sherlock & Joan stayed platonic their entire series and Sherlock & John also stayed platonic their entire series (the fandoms reacted in opposite ways, however)
You people are normal right. If I learn how to be a person from you it would be fine right
tumblr users perfec t people for put friendship in to lea\rn! tumblr community very Normal and Informative learn safely put Shift in tumblr. put Shift In tumblr. no strangeness ever in tumblr users because good social skills and linguistic conventions for Shift brain full with big human interpersonal interactions. a tumblr yes a place for a Shift put Shift in tumblr can trust tumblr for giveing good social skills to Shift. friend tumblr users
Queerbaiting is real but not like. Common to the extent it's portrayed. Sherlock is a pretty unambiguous example: the teases basically were the show, and once they moved to outright mocking the fandom and the idea the show got worse. But once you get to shows with prominent queer characters and relationships...it's kinda hard to wrap my head around how it's different from any other ship or any other romantic thread that doesn't play out, in most cases. It's like when "bury my gays" went from criticizing how shows will kill off one of their very few, or sole, queer characters for shock value to calling it homophobic when a work that's queer-character-heavy or outright queernorm kills off anyone. Like the intent just isn't there
A lot of terms get adopted by people who understand that a thing is commonly considered bad, but never learned *why* it's bad, so they conclude it must be bad in every possible context
Others aren't doing this, but rather coopting existing terms to add weight to their criticism of a work cause just disliking a plot point is nothing, but accusing it of being bigoted adds a moral dimension
remmeber that period of time when ppl on tumblr were rlly adamant that likes did nothing and we’re pointless and the only way to support their art was to reblog. like that was so fucking stupid, im not liking ur post to increase ur engagement, im liking ur post cuz i like the fucking post
on a similar note i remember this period of time when people would post to their insta stories full on infographics about how liking their art did nothing and people have to "save" the post and dm it to someone and its like what kind of cow do you think i am that going to spend my time trying to boost your social media engagement
It's slow going but The Pile CAN be smallened!
i have wig blindness. every time ppl are like “omg the wigs in this show are soooooooo bad” i almost never notice it. looks normal enough to me.
The thing of it is, I can actually see these guys having that argument.
I kept myself occupied today by wading through my pile of sewing projects that have been languishing in my office for... I don't want to think about how long.
Anyway, I was halfway through hemming a curtain I'm pretty certain I started making in 2021 when I realized my background TV show had switched at some point and I was now 'watching' Ghost Adventures.
After another twenty minutes of only half-listening because I couldn't be bothered to get up from my sewing machine and change it, I realized they were talking about the physical manifestations of possessions and ghost attacks, and I looked up in time to see a woman sitting in a mold-riddled space (it's worth pointing out the host was wearing a respirator for this exact reason), with all these excited men pointing at the flushing on her neck and face, all of them going, "wow, look! Something hit her, a ghost hit her! That's crazy!"
And the longer I watched, the more I realized she was experiencing what looked like MCAS pattern flushing (which can sometimes look like the lupus butterfly rash, but can spread far more rapidly and will just keep going unless you get away from the trigger. The neck can become especially affected), and then the next day, they asked her how she was feeling and she said, something along the lines of "I'm okay, I had a bit of a migraine this morning, I feel really drained from the ghost attack."
And I was just sitting there. Squinting.
Like, obviously, I cannot diagnose anyone, let alone over a TV show —and who the fuck knows if any of it was real or if the whole thing was faked somehow — but also... I think if you're only experiencing ghosts in your moldy haunted house, and the physical symptoms you describe are flushing, dizziness, nausea, headache, and "feeling an oppressive weight on your chest,' I think you might be having an allergic reaction, actually. (Obligatory Vicotiran doctor: you got ghosts in your veins, here, do some cocaine Benadryl about it.)
"But I was seeing things!!" Mast cell inflammation in the brain can literally make you hallucinate and lose time if it's bad enough. I used to get auditory hallucinations post-anaphylaxis because of how my untreated mast cell disorder manifested. If I start hallucinating sounds, I know it's time for a trip to the hospital because I'm about to need my body weight in intravenous steroids to stay alive.
"But I went to the doctor, and they couldn't find anything wrong." lol. lmao, even.
Like maybe there are ghosts. Maybe they are throwing things at you and telling you to get out. But I think it's because they're trying to save you from the mold. God knows, you're certainly not helping yourself. Wear a mask, get some nasalcrom. Jesus.
None of these people would survive my house.
They'd be downstairs screaming about the horrors, and I'd just be like, yeah, that's the gas lines. They need to be replaced. You might want to come up here and get some fresh air.
hello do people know/remember that when mask of the rose came out @failbettergames teamed up with the pigeon pitt (not on tumblr afaik) to make a crochet pattern for mr pages?? WELL i have finally got around to making him but im housesitting and dont have all my yarn. i couldn't leave him coatless but i think this is a crime in the masters eyes
The Pigeon’s Nest! The pattern is still available for free, too.
I love being mean to zoro
