I just drank two cans of coca cola and wrote almost ten thousand words in one day. I'm a minor god. I'm a tattered woman in a cave. I'm a bodiless thing, a slowly lumbering deity.

I have to go night night now.

Character flaws

It's been a while since I wrote this post, so I'm a bit lazy to retype it.

I feel a bit disassociated from most Tumblr discourse regarding the Israel-Palestine conflict because it mostly just feels rooted in absolute hatred of 'the other' - whether it be Israelis, Palestinians, Jewish people, Muslims, and/or anything else in between, and it's one big game of the oppression olympics, and that's game with absolutely no winners. It's just another race to the bottom, and too many folks seem to be willingly partaking in this...it's not gonna end well for anybody.

YASS QUEEN

You go girlypop!

WORK THAT BEDSHEET!

presenting, for your viewing torture pleasures: the last scene of season 2 with Love of My Life by Queen playing in the background

I don't want to be sitting here being angry because of Taika's ignorance, I want to be reading fics and making edits and rewatching the kiss from episode 8 over and over again but I can't. In the years past, I've had to swear off jelly belly jelly beans, cracker barrel, shein, harry potter, chik fil a, and home depot. That's just the brands; more importantly to me, I've given up on Jensen Ackles, John Mulaney, Thomas Middleditch, and more than I can possibly think about right now. I have long since learned my lesson in regards to parasocial relationships and hero worship.

Media and art are so extremely important to me as both a coping mechanism and a source of representation and OFMD checks so many boxes for me. It's one of the few unsanitized, non-eunichized queer shows with adult characters, POC, and trans folks and I'm so brutally sad that it's hampered by the actions of one person's lack of social awareness and hypocrisy but I can't in good conscience indulge knowing that when celebrities endorse things like this stupid fucking letter (however well-meaning and done out of ignorance) they normalize this sort of callous thinking.

I'm not sure how to proceed, going forward. I'm pointedly not streaming the show and using my platforms to make other fans aware of these circumstances, as well as sharing information from other indigenous folks who are feeling hurt and betrayed Taika's contribution to all of this. I don't know if it's okay for me to even engage with fan content. I'm not willing to compromise my values by consuming Taika's works without a retraction and it sucks because I am desperate for something to buoy my mental health. Interested to hear how others are coping with this. Anyway, free Palestine.
