God idk the “real art” arguments leave such a bad taste in my mouth for reasons I struggle to articulate but it poisons the whole conversation for me

LRT I’m too good at this and it’s the source of all my woes lmao

I think its genuinely a virtue to accept that you could be wrong about anything and kill the part of yourself that needs to always be seen as correct and smarter than others on any given topic

Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

Being awake sucks, being asleep and writing hualian fic is actually lovely

Brain is bad but sleeping most of the day and doing the lucid dreaming playing with blorbos thing was very nice

At least I have ghost socks!!

Like if a friend is mad because their favorite sandwich got taken off the menu and I think that was maybe a sound business decision I’m like “oh I made a friend mad, better kill myself!”

And like, when other people say irrational stuff they’re angry about I will start spiraling if I don’t agree and I don’t want to do that to anybody else (except I kind of do for petty reasons)

Fizz! @fizzygingr.bsky.social · 13h

The problem is that I get really upset in a way that is not rational at all so I can’t even talk about it without saying a bunch of bullshit I don’t actually endorse.

I don’t know how to stop my brain from being on fire

Yeah that’s what the VAST majority of people here see as an Acceptable Protest

Fizz! @fizzygingr.bsky.social · 1d

Like the biggest complaint I saw on facebook during the 2020 BLM protests was “why aren’t they just marching and holding hands and singing like Martin Luther King?”

Fizz! @fizzygingr.bsky.social · 1d

I think a lot of it stems from the civil rights movement of the 60s using nonviolence (don’t break anything, don’t fight back, keep being kind) as a tactic, which some people used strategically and some people embraced wholeheartedly. It’s enshrined in the culture now as a Good Protest.

Fizz! @fizzygingr.bsky.social · 1d

I’m not shocked at all because this is the moderate liberal culture I grew up in lol

Fizz! @fizzygingr.bsky.social · 1d

Because freedom of speech is in the constitution and conservatives foam at the mouth over how much they love the constitution, but freedom to block traffic isn’t in there so it’s like a loophole

Fizz! @fizzygingr.bsky.social · 1d

Yeah it gives cops an excuse to arrest protesters for not following the rules, and it gives law-abiding citizens an excuse to support it. It’s a big red flag if someone supports people getting arrested for protesting, but if people are getting arrested for blocking traffic that’s just about safety!

Me @ me you are not actually morally obligated to have a panic attack every time someone is more upset about something than you are!! Be free!!!

Blacklisted a major ocd trigger even though I was convinced I shouldn’t, please be proud of me

I use lucid dreaming to write fic with good visuals and last night I was thinking about Xichen just like, as sad as possible, that is my safe place

Fizz! @fizzygingr.bsky.social · 1d

would have gotten killed immediately and I’m sure he knew that)

Fizz! @fizzygingr.bsky.social · 1d

You’re not wrong!! There is absolutely nothing clear-cut about this situation or how it should have been handled. My point was more that wwx discounted the importance of himself actually being able to be present (and if fate hadn’t intervened in the worst possible way he probably

Fizz! @fizzygingr.bsky.social · 1d

And then he makes out with some guy who hates you on your parents’ grave 😔

Fizz! @fizzygingr.bsky.social · 1d

Idk I’ve been having thoughts about Xichen deteriorating and wwx telling jc that Lan Zhan is having a really hard time with it and jc is like yeah 🙃🙃🙃 it’s hard to watch your brother get sicker 🙃🙃🙃 it’s hard to feel like you can’t help him 🙃🙃 isn’t it

Fizz! @fizzygingr.bsky.social · 1d

The tragedy is that wwx was like “obviously he needs his core to rebuild the sect” and jc was like “obviously i need my brother to rebuild the sect”

Why does this look like we had a one night stand
