Just learned that Caster Semenya lost her legal battle and I’m so fucking sad. this is such a huge loss for intersex people in sports and sets a real fucking dangerous precedent that essentially excludes all intersex people from participating in sports unless they go through (unconsensual) HRT. the blatent racism and intersexism that the court is showing is fucking despicable and I’m so fucking upset.
i’m also really fucking suspicious that the ONLY people talking about intersexism in the context of this legal descision are intersex people. even when this is BLATENTLY and obviously intersexist like, perisex people refuse to recognize it. and that’s fucking disappointing. i know there isn’t much awareness or solidairty with us, but still. it’s not a big ask to ask y’all to do the bare minimum of explicitly calling intersexism out for what it is. perisex people fucking do better.
every person can feel freddie’s presence in their souls when they sing MAMAAAAAA UUHHHH, I DONT WANNA DIE, I SOMETIMES I WISH I’VE NEVER BEEN BORN AT ALL with all the air in their lungs i’m not joking
okay maybe this is common knowledge but not to me

Finally breaking up with a tv show like
I adore this
tagged by @thelandofnothing Thanks for being a rock, here's a first for me actually doing this.
are you staying home from work/school?: Odd but my job let me go (it's kind of fine) and I’m treating this a much deserved mental health break, even with all the fear. At least I’m writing more.
if you’re staying home, who’s there with you?: Roommates, who are two of my friends from school, and my sister. It’s like a friend's episode just without Ross and Rachel.
are you a homebody?: Yes, Its nice not wearing pants.
what movies have you watched recently? what shows are you watching?: Just saw Birds of Prey, What's Wrong with Secretary Kim? Emma, and Tonight I’ll watch Onward.
an event that you were looking forward to that got canceled?: I had tickets to BTS. So... Also Outsidelands, while it's in August, I already booked my hotel and now I’m wondering if I should even buy the tickets.
what music are you listening to? A lot of Kpop, lo-fi, coffee shop indie, alternative, and Halsey like sounds. New is Missio. I like em.
what are you reading?: I'm reading a lot of Pride and Prejudice variations, alien romance (because why not) and some Neil Gaiman.
what are you doing for self-care?: I had a lot of face masks piled up, and have used one every two days, My face is so fucking shiny you could see your reflection on my forehead, also Persona 5 royal.
tagging: I don't really talk to anyone so? I did it for me?
ha!
The foreshadowing and the revelation (also the editors deserve so much love for this)
I know, I know—it’s a little late now, we are around 550 instead—but OMG, you wonderful 500~550 people ❤️❤️❤️ It feels so strange…But in a good way—like, that’s more people than went to my school growing up?!
And to celebrate, I will be doing a giveaway! 🥳
There are two prices to win. You enter by liking and/or reposting two different posts (depending on what price you want)—and you can enter both but only win one. If somehow, someone wins both, I will contact that winner to choose one of the prices, and give the other to someone else!
Get a character painting, by me :) You can choose a style and character* (it does not have to be related to this game or fandom)!
Here are some examples! (Though scroll past the first post…)
All you have to do to enter is be a follower (new or old), and like or repost this post! (You can do both and would then double your chance to win this price!)
Design a game detail** that will appear in the game!
Design an outfit (either an everyday outfit or a ball outfit)
AND
Design an NPC character that appears somewhere in the game (will have a small role).
Give me a rough or detailed idea of what you want, and I will work with you to craft it :D
All you have to do to enter is be a follower (new or old), and like or repost the pinned game post! (You can do both and would then double your chance to win this price!)
*Fair warning, I am best with closeup and humanoids… Please no detailed hands… it’s so hard to get right :( And if it is a simple idea, I could perhaps do two characters… But, umm, nothing too NSFW. And it doesn’t have to be in a realistic style, send me a few references, and I will try and make it work :D
** If it is highly inappropriate, or very very era ill-suited, I might have to ask for a different idea. But I don’t expect that to happen :) It cant be copyright material (unless it is Sherlock related…)
I will be accepting ideas/prompts for a combo (a quick drawing) ≈ 500-1000 word prompts that are of the same scenario.
Write in the comments or send me an anonymous message of what you would want to see—Oh, and mention it is for the contest!
I might also add some of my own ideas—then I’ll make a poll of some that I like or think would be good, and you guys vote for your favourite!
*I will end it in two weeks. Will randomise winners 1st of September!
Me dodging ideas for other stories and characters while I’m trying to meet my daily word count for OOTB:
Kiss me more! I love this CG! He just looks like the Cat that got the cream :)

Hi! Here is a blog that I honestly needed to work on for any writing I do. When I'm not trying to drown my sorrows in tea, you can find me writing on Ao3. I'm a English graduate who got a job to fund her 2D boyfriends. I love art, gardening, traveling, and my cats.
