Mentioned to my mom I'm asexual a couple months ago and today.... we got into the car and she hit me with, "So you use they/them pronouns now?"

I went, "What. no. she/her."

"How does that work? With she/her/hers and they/them?"

I stared at her. "What are you talking about?"

"Well you came out as-" and I said, "I'm asexual."

She replied, "Like an amoeba, I know."

"Oh. My god. No. Mom. It doesn't- it's not the asexual you learned about in biology. I didn't come out as a single celled organism."

With heavy relief, she said "Oh, it has a different meaning?"

"Yes, mom."

#like an amoeba. i know.

when people who want to be vaguely progressive say 'nature' all secular style but it's painfully obvious they mean 'god' while thinking they don't mean god

"natural behaviour" "the natural body" "nature intended" "nature created" no da fuck it didn't

“Culture tends to argue that it forbids only that which is unnatural. But from a biological perspective, nothing is unnatural. Whatever is possible is by definition also natural. A truly unnatural behaviour, one that goes against the laws of nature, simply cannot exist, so it would need no prohibition.” - Yuval Noah Harari

I have food poisoning, I’m on my period, I have a migraine, my POTS is out of control, and I’m meant to get on a flight tomorrow to hopefully make it to my father’s death bed in time.

Emailing me a “review” of my book calling it cringe cannot hurt me. And if you claim you hoped to achieve anything else you’re either a liar or in denial about your own motives. You should reflect on that.

thebibliosphere

I made this non-rebloggable earlier because I didn’t want it to leave containment, but after discussing this with some other friends who primarily sell their work via booktok and Insta, this is apparently a thing right now where readers are going out of their way to message authors “honest and valuable feedback” because they believe authors need to be told how to improve.

Except they’re not giving actual valuable feedback, because being critical of something does not actually mean having constructive critical feedback.

Being able to offer constructive feedback is a skill. It doesn’t mean “having a negative opinion.”

You don’t need to be a professional writer or editor, but you do preferably need to have a basic understanding of technical writing skill, an understanding of the genre you are critiquing and a very basic grasp that just because you do not like something, does not make something objectively bad.

Messaging me to tell me you find something “cringe” isn’t valuable feedback. That’s you going out of your way to make sure a stranger knows you don’t like them.

Doubling down and emailing me back to tell me you “just wanted to help,” like help where? Where was the feedback?

What am I supposed to do with that except feel bad and stop writing?

You knew what you were doing and I will hold that mirror up. If the reflection you see makes you uncomfortable, that’s on you.

- -

Also, as a wider note: don’t do this in general, don’t tag or email authors in negative reviews.

Reviews are for other readers. They belong in reader spaces. If an author invades reader spaces and gets mad about what they see, that’s on them. But don’t go up to the author’s online door and demand they acknowledge your personal dislike. That’s weird. Why are you doing that? Rate the book one star for your own records and move on to the next one.

The pig on my witch is fading away😢

opened up ravelry to look at patterns and the very first thing i saw was

The Garment by Robert Cole

littlebirdinagarden

I had to immediately look for myself and I feel like this post needs the addition of the very first line in the pattern description

every day i walk into work and my manager says “here is the rule you must enforce” and i go “got it bossman” and i spend a couple days enforcing the rule and then my manager comes up to me and says “why are you enforcing the rule? we changed the rule yesterday and didn’t tell you” and i go “ok bossman new rule it is” and then a customer comes in asking to break the new rule and i say “sorry you can’t it’s the rule” and they say “but you don’t understand the rule doesn’t apply to me” and then my manager comes out and says “they’re right the rule doesn’t apply to them” and i ask why and my manager says “it just doesn’t.” and then the next day we get rid of the rule entirely and no one remembered it existed in the first place.

anyway this sounds like a metaphor for neurodivergence or something but it’s not this is just my fucking life

love the word fruitless. arguing with you is like if there was no apples involved whatsoever

you're bountiless you stupid bitch

magicratfingers

this thing fucks

magicratfingers

it's like a baby sling for my legs? but the weight is spread out over my whole back with the nice gentle pressure of a good pair of leggings and it's deshrimping my shoulders back is this the first time I sat like a normal human? maybe

magicratfingers

you're only supposed to wear it like 15 min the first day and I am already missing it I feel like a bag of mashed potatoes

thebibliosphere

I love mine so much they'll have to bury me in it.

these are really great it sort of gently pulls your back and shoulders into stable positions like... exotendons or something. it literally feels so restful to sit up straight when youve got this thing on

my friend w hypermobile EDS insisted i try this thing and the first time i wore it, it was so restful i cried so hard i threw up. because i realized how much tension i was holding in my body and how tired i really was

#i looooove my body braid i need to remember to wear it more
