Did something drastic and got very Normie™️ hair lmao

This leasing fiasco is giving me a migraine because whyyyyyyy is everything going so weird? It’s a lease and they are making me jump through hoops because their faulty ass system is broken and makes everything 100x more complicated than it should be 🫠

Was about to go to bed because I’ve got to be up early to drive to my new place (yes I finally got everything kinda sorta figured out there) but I’m enough of a 🤡 that I want to see the countdown.

Wikipedia has lost its lawsuit against the Online Safety Act, meaning it could have to verify the identity of every contributor/editor on the site, or consider ceasing or drastically restricting operations in the UK.

Aw. The people who were going to Japan with me are now having to shift their dates due to medical issues so we won’t be there at the same time now :((

I was thinking about how it’s summer here but winter in other parts of the world and how the stars I see at night differ from the constellations seen in the southern celestial hemisphere but because of axial precession they are changing and it’s all so beautiful to me.

Do you ever think of axial precession and it makes you want to cry?

Oh, wow, I missed that. wow. That whole panel was a mess from start to finish. And someone said they’ve given it at multiple cons. Yikes.

a wise fujo once said that not even the tower of babel could separate us

They’ve given this same panel at multiple cons! Double yikes!

I love inn n out. But does it have honey butter or a Dr Pepper shake? Checkmate.

Where I’m moving does have a whataburger whew. Almost panicked there for a second.

But also, they used a Korean webtoon, Noblese, as an example of either a “Josei” or an isekai? It’s very much neither. So the whole thing has issues from start to finish 🙃

Yeah, there’s a complete and utter lack of interest in accepting, for even a moment, that both things can be true at once. Which, the desire to completely differentiate the two, especially by supposed fans of women’s media, is concerning to me. Given everything else going on.

Can this apartment complex stop screwing me over? Please? I swear to god if this falls through I’m going to cry lol

Very well could be. I do feel like it’s becoming a more prominent belief within certain (often younger) sections of shoujo fans. A friend suggested that the panelists had mistaken Takemiya’s Kaze to Ki no uta for Heart of Thomas, which is a whole different can of worms.

Which they acknowledged to be fair, I guess? And granted, it’s been a few years, but aren’t they all like 13-15? What age-gap? It’s very weird to me that a panel on shoujo and josei would tell people both not to read Heart of Thomas and also telling people that BL isn’t “real” gay romance.

Yeahhhhh they called it an age-gap romance and told people not to read it. Which. Yikes.

Yepppp

Maru it seems like every time you post I find something new I need to pick up when I’m in Japan this November (thank you so much for doing that I am so excited to buy more because of you fr 🙏)

Yikes, not a panel telling people BL isn’t “real” gay romance (as in, not geikomi? But if that’s what you mean, say that!) and telling people not to read Heart of Thomas. Yikes yikes yikes.

Need the Vageena shades

Really need a new backpack and k can’t decide if I want the more $$$ bag that I really want and I know is good quality or settle with one I don’t like but is cheaper and has decent quality.

Sometimes I think about how one of my very few childhood friends ended up being a trans guy and I only found out because a guy I met like 15 years later and in a whole different part of the US ended up being his cousin. Like yeah the world really is small sometimes.

There’s a lot of hate in my heart for rfk jr

Going to get to hang with my baby siblings this week before I move which means taking them to the movies! And mini golf! And maybe an escape room! And a pizza buffet! And ice cream! And getting even more junk food! And boba! And an arcade if they want!! I’m so excited!!

I’ve been reading most of my manga digitally lately out of necessity and wow it’s so much easier on a tablet than my phone. Hate reading on my laptop, but the tablet is very useful for reading.

Spent $5,000 USD on school equipment in the last two days and that’s just a small portion of what I’ll spend in this coming week 🫠

I like that I can talk about being gender fluid genderqueer and bisexual and I still get called “transhet woman” “sex traitor” “a fetishist” “trans misogynistic” like??? I just told you trans “inclusive” radfems were telling me to kill myself for being bi and a demiboy (at the time)??? What???
