I mean, she’s an entire dragon.

This is a not-all-there-anymore Blood Elf.

This is how you know NPCs are completely blind to what your character is wearing because no sane person would look at this guy and go, “Yeah, there’s our champion.”

// This is what happens when you make the executive decision over a decade ago to just “roll with it” and add 99% of the absurd shit that happens in an MMO RP into the character: You get an old warlock who never really wanted to do that to begin with but circumstances, and instead of cracking and going off the Typical Violently Mad Warlock path he just went… “Well, I guess this is what we’re doing now!” and has been trying for years to put NPCs off of asking him to do shit for them by dressing progressively more and more loudly, which clearly is not working.

It sucks even more because I definitely have done everything right since the whole mess started to avoid it, including continuing to wear masks everywhere even now, but that shit only works if the majority do it and the majority in the US are absolute fucking morons.

Anyway, they gave me Paxlovid because the hilariously bad BMI chart still flags me as “obese” which makes me high risk so I’m not gonna complain about that.

Mostly I’m just constantly tired. Not mentally tired, just physically. Things like walking across the house to let the dog out, standing for 10 minutes, eating, showering, sometimes even typing, make me want to nap but I can’t because my brain is fine and is like “…not tired, not gonna sleep” vs. the body’s “You know what? Fuck you, if you’re so ‘in control’ of everything, fix it.”

Anyway, adding a fuckton of CBD, turmeric/black pepper in cooking (more than usual, I use both a lot), and fish oil have kept the first day “wow it feels like someone beat the shit out of all of me with a bat” feeling away entirely so that helps.

I’m also hoping slapping a virus that causes a widespread inflammatory response with a whole host of anti-inflammatory stuff will lower the chances of any form of long term fuck ups because I do not need that.

There’s also the sheer insanity of, “Ok you need to quarantine for 5 days but you’ll be contagious for like 14, so make sure to wear a mask when you go back to work after 5 days,” and if you think about that too hard your brain will explode.

On the plus side, while I was picking up some essentials some jackass in the same aisle made the remark that it was 'stupid’ that I was still wearing a mask since they don’t work and the look of absolute HORROR when I said, “Dude, I HAVE Covid right now, I’m wearing it for your protection, but if you’re so sure masks don’t work I can take it off if it’s bothering you that much,” as I reached up to remove it.

Old motherfucker practically RAN away from me, not sure why he was so scared of me taking my mask off if they don’t work…

If I hadn’t been so tired I’d have followed him out to his fucking car just to unmask and cough at him.

Tumblr hasn’t let me upload images for like months now. The app just says “well that didn’t work” and browsers hang.

Oh well, i can’t say i care enough to dig into it.

I’d LIKE to post directly from my phone like a normal person and not have to post it somewhere else, screenshot it, and scale it down so Tumblr’s trash as usual code can handle it but here: Cool belt + I’ve lost enough weight (on purpose) since the divorce to fit into a dress my mom made for me in high school.

https://www.instagram.com/vrekasht/ for more pics, otherwise eh, whatever. I still look good (and also shaved my head a few weeks back to get rid of a bunch of wooly fried hair, I forget if I mentioned that or not,

Putting this here because I look good :)

Anyways the queer community isn’t just what’s on the internet. You’ll find transgender people who call themselves transsexuals because that’s what they called themselves 40 years ago, you’ll find bisexual women who have been in the lesbian community since before bisexual women were forced to make their own community, you’ll find gay men who call themselves femmes, you’ll find trans women who were drag queens for decades before calling themselves trans women (and still are drag queens). The queer community is big and colourful and beautiful and doesn’t have set boxes, and it never should.

happy 1 year to this post. its never leaving my notifs huh

This is why I keep saying that it’s a problem for people under the queer umbrella to conflate common courtesies / rules of thumb with hard rules.

“Never deadname” is a common courtesy, but if Steve says that he used to be Tracy and is fine with people saying “when Steve was Tracy”, you don’t get to say that Steve is wrong about himself and his past.

“Do not use ‘it’ for trans people” is a good rule of thumb, but there are many older trans folks out there whose pronoun is actually 'it’, and so using 'it’ for them is the right thing to do, otherwise you’re disrespecting their identity.

“Do not reclaim slurs that are not about you” is a common courtesy, but if there’s a podcast called “Desperate Housedykes” it’s ridiculous to say that only lesbians are allowed to say that name out loud, and everyone else should just say “Desperate House-D-slur” (yes, it actually happened).

Common courtesies applies to general categories, and they evolve with time. The names we use for ourselves these days are not the names we use in the past, and they probably won’t be the names we use in the future. So if you see folk using language you personally do not approve of, always ask yourself if those words are being used on purpose to offend, or if they’re just respecting someone else whose language is different than yours.

I’m not even remotely sure what to do about this.

At least it seems friendly…ish.

In case you’re unaware of the latest retcon, Rowling now says that the death eaters were meant to be trans people all along.

Well, better than usual.

Turns out life is a lot less stressful when you stop trying to stop the inevitable and shift focus to making it an entire game to be as benignly, but somehow infuriatingly A Problem without making it obvious that’s what you’re doing.
