Incredibly proud of my average penis

being perceived as ugly or undesirable locks away a part of womanhood. you will never get to fully touch or hold feminity because our culture has defined male attention, lust, assertion, and violence as what defines feminity. If you don't have the experience of being honked at on the street or being bought a drink in a bar or whatever objectification that we are supposed to laugh off in private, you are not a part of the real women. You are not desired

Minecraft is possibly the worst tutorialized game ever released

The entire game play requires you to know this it never tells you

Ie: tool progression, there is nothing actually telling you that diamond ore and redstone require an iron pickaxe, you need to figure that out through fucking up or cultural osmosis

Or nether portals prior to the addition of ruined portals having nothing to tell you how to make them

This is all to say that if a data or mod pack does a shit job telling you how to get started, that is actually completely in line with Minecraft's design philosophy

Genuinely, how is someone expected to know that right clicking dirt with a water bottle is how you make mud, a mechanic notably unused in any other blocks

A game mechanic that requires one to look it up to use is a bad mechanic actually.

"decentering trans men" uhh sorry i think i slept when trans men were the center of any attention ups pls wake me up when this happens next time

hmm, how to say this in a way that doesn't accidentally and incorrectly convey that I'm on any various Mad At Someone islands... it is completely #validandreal to be put off by and feel uncomfortable about discussions of sexual violence subtext in fiction, it takes no stretch of the imagination to figure out why it's not to everybody's taste, That's Fine, not everything is for everyone, I'm not making rounds on people's blogs to say Engage With This Abuse Allegory Or Perish. I also think it's completely fair to not want to engage with a lens because it paints a character you like and/or relate to as metaphorically sexually abusive and it doesn't feel good to contemplate that, you get to think about what ever you want in your own blessèd mind and you don't have to bring something into your sandbox if you don't find it fun to play with. what I think is a problem is having that subjective discomfort reaction to sexual violence subtext and then using that discomfort by itself to argue that the reading is invalid and that the people talking about it are just making craaaazy reaches. not enjoying a line of thought is fine, thinking that a particular vein of analysis doesn't hold up to strong counterarguments is fine, saying "I don't like thinking about this so it's wrong and everyone should stop talking about it" is a whole different thing and just further taboos and stigmatizes conversations about sexual violence even in fictional and abstract contexts.

texting everyone in my friends list “see what happens when you disobey me?” when the eclipse starts

my cat is completely obsessed with watching the bathroom sink drain and I have started calling this "her shows." as in when I'm in the bathroom and she meows and runs up I'll be like "oh you want to watch your shows?" and run the faucet for an extra few seconds so it fills a little. she will then sit there at the edge of the sink for ages totally entraptured by the drain. blorbo from her sink

Just want to add that if you're on the spectrum, you may also experience Autistic Rumination, which is distinct from the obsessive variety, despite the two having some overlapping characteristics!

I'm always seeing this sentiment of "I have got to make my art weirder" or people begging for weirder art but here's the thing, Weird is not a brand. You cannot rack your brains trying to figure out the "Weird" formula. You don't get weird art by artificially forcing whatever you think is "weird." You get weird art (and I think "weird" is sometimes people groping for a way of saying non-corporatized) by figuring out what you like, deep down, even (especially) if you think it's embarrassing and wallowing in it like a pig

Maybe the cover is abt 90% duct tape at this point and I had to write the title on the spine with a sharpie so I don't forget which book it is but there's nothing wrong with the words inside. The words inside are perfectly alright.

genuinely I'm so sick of people wanting all fiction to be ethical. can we all just get a little gross with it. the point of fiction is that it's not real. we can be unethical in fiction; same goes with being perverted with fiction, being unrealistic with fiction, and being grotesque with fiction. not all fiction has to be ethical, not every character has to be ethical, and that's okay. can we stop with the puritanism. be gross. be unrealistic. be whatever. if I don't like it it's not my business as long as we're all clear that its fictional.
