i love when ur inside chilling or cleaning and it suddenly starts raining hard as hell YESSSSS IM A LITTLE MOUSE IN A TREE HOLLOW HOUSE

ok maybe i romanticize everything a little a lot

humans don’t have enough ornamentation. where’s the plumage, the antlers

i could go for a good vibrant throat sac i could display as i sing in the mating season

Humans have some of the most extreme hair variation over their bodies in the animal kingdom, with hair on some parts of our body a few millimetres long and fine enough to be almost invisible, and hair in other parts a good metre long if not artificially trimmed. Part of the inside of our mouths are turned out to make our lips bright red, we have comically oversized breasts and lack penis bones to make erections more indicative of impressive circulation, and have some of the most complex behavioural adaptations to self-ornamentation for courtship seen in anything that doesn’t spend half its life collecting blue bottle caps. How much ornamentation do you want?

I’d like antlers, as previously stated

I want bioluminescence

Sonar

Flared webbing would be nice

Fangs. Maybe wings, too, but DEFINITELY fangs.

I am reasonably fun to hang out with and my company is enjoyed by well over 10 people worldwide

I hate the age of streaming. I hate that the success of a show depends on how well it trends on Twitter or how popular its music or sounds are on TikTok. I hate how fandoms have become commodities, narrative themes nothing more than pithy slogans you can slap on a hat, moral messages as empty and hollow as a coke commercial because the corporation behind them don't believe in anything but capital. I hate the algorithm that dominates our lives and interests, I hate the marketization of everything that could ever be loved. I hate how something as pure as wanting to see yourself in the stories you enjoy has become something so tainted and evil and reeking of pandering, or worse, of trying to stir controversy just for the clicks and the outrage. I hate how they use minority casting that way, it's evil and it's exploitative and it's completely performative, with no real interest in elevating marginalized voices.

I hate connected multiverses and big blockbuster franchises with 80 sequels and cameos and bringing back dead horses so you can beat them for all their worth. I'm tired of nostalgia and looking backwards, at something that never truly existed, because you can't stand to look at the world as it is now.

Most of all, though.

I hate the dilution of human storytelling.

I hate that it's all become "content." Just something you must pay for. Something you have to obsessively watch and binge because you have to get your money's worth. I hate that corporations fund these projects because it's something they can add to their catalogue, their bevy of "marketable content."

I hate that they can take any show off any time they want, and then it's just gone.

You can't watch it anymore, not legally anyway. I hate their callous disregard for the work of artists and animators and vfx artists.

I hate it all. I wish blockbuster could go back in time and strangle Netflix.

I wish I could do it myself.

if you ever use the phrase “glorifying obesity,” i genuinely do not think you’re a good person.

if you can’t look at another person in any context without their body type becoming your primary focus and invoking rage or disgust, you have serious issues.

like i really need you to know that looking at another person and seeing only how much they weigh and then having a negative emotional response to that is a deranged thing to do.
