And neither do you, internet rando who took my one line pointing out their incorrect assumption as full justification to scream at me. Oh, you're autistic and that means you don't have to read what people are actually posting? That means you don't have to provide any evidence for your claims? That means anyone who takes issue with anything you say is attacking you personally and harassing you?…
or, White Girl Watches C-Drama... And BEYOND We finished Pursuit of Jade and it was worth every penny of my Netflix subscription. I would rate it a little lower than Unveil: Jadewind simply because the plot and pacing are a bit wonky in places, so as a show it's not quite as good, but my god I love it so much. This is what's so good about the marriage of convenience trope when it's done well: you…
Tried once more to read Ellen Marie Wiseman's The Orphan Collector . Could not do it. Sorry, I do not like my harrowing orphanage stories with a side of the racist kidnapper with a victim complex's POV. Seldom in literature have I wanted more devoutly to reach through the page and shove someone into a brick wall. ETA: Gonna donate this one and the lone henry pooter book I have kicking around to…
old enough to know better roughly ladyshaped Christmas and Easter bisexual slow-cycling genderfluid Schroedinger's lesbian This list will be updated, probably. I'm annoying like that.

"Just eat plant-based foods:" because those are freely and cheaply available everywhere? Because grain, fruit, and vegetable farming isn't exploitative of sentient beings or the environment? Because you can overcome your…
I am, of course, autistically overthinking the question. What makes an animal "unconventional"? Where do you draw the line? Are bears unconventional? Are camels? Or sharks? And also, how am I supposed to pick a favorite when there are so many creatures out there? Okay, I do have a favorite animal, and it's classed as an exotic pet, so maybe that counts: the hedgehog. I have long been a hedgehog…
or, I Wasn't Even Supposed To Be Here Today Basically, I am a very boring person when it comes to media; usually I would rather reread something I love than try something new and hip, most movies and TV don't interest me, I never could warm up to graphic novels or anime. Anything in the Realistic Contemporary genre goes directly in the bin unless there's a really good hook (if I wanted to see that…
I'm seeing a lot of kvetching, to the effect that Bearblog is "nothing but AI and leftist politics" and why are we all so boring, and I went through five pages of Bear's most recent posts so you don't have to. Results: 31 personal posts , ranging from "today I ate cereal" to "I hate my ex" to "here are my musings on a subject". 19 posts of creative writing, poetry, art, comics, photography, and…
