forcemasc? no i said forcemask. put the n95 on.

there's something so special about doctorjackrose; they make me SO insane.

the way rose loved them so much she made sure they'd both live; the way jack wanted the last thing he did before he died to kiss them both & let them know that their time together was worth it, and then was so relieved to learn rose wasn't dead.

their banter and their love and their relationship OHHOOOO i'm going to cry !!!! i lov them so much

not to be a sociologist on main but the responses of like “of course high femmes don’t ‘not do anything,’ we put effort in through xyz means” don’t really do it for me. like instead i wanna ask why is the idea of sex that isn’t (physically) “reciprocal” morally reprehensible to you? why do you prioritize reciprocity over consent? why is laziness a bad thing, and why do you talk about leisure sex in terms of work? do you actually want to be doing what you’re doing?

anyway high femme 🤝 ace 🤝 sex worker solidarity because i really only see these kinds of conversations happening in the latter two spaces

Do you guys remember specimen five... The real ones remember her... Miss her 😔

i love microbiology because it’s all about little guys !!

kawaguchiko, yamanashi

march 30-april 1, 2023

>> see photos <<

my first trip after my surgery was to kawaguchiko in yamanashi prefecture!

kawaguchiko is one of the five lakes surrounding mt fuji. it's the most popular and the most established as a tourist destination. there are sightseeing buses and plenty of hotels and museums in the area, plus access to the other lakes.

i got very lucky and ended up having great weather the whole time despite the weather app saying it was going to be rainy! it took a long time to get there so the first day was a travel day, and the second day was my only full day there. i spent the day walking around the north side of the lake to the natural living museum. the north side is the best place to take photos of fuji in kawaguchiko. the natural living museum has some nice gardening outside and a store for souvenirs inside. after that i got the bus to the yamanashi gem museum, which was really neat actually! they had gems from all over the world in both raw and refined form, as well as minerals from all over japan. after that i realized i'd ripped my jeans LOL and had to go back to the hotel. i ended up taking a short rest because i was still tired from the surgery, and i ended up going back to the north side of the lake to catch the sunset.

highly recommend this area for a relaxing trip with great views!

tumblr staff loves implementing changes that everyone hates just to torture... can u guys just put the crabs back

me in the claire's: it's like a saw trap in here

i don’t understand how people can be so fucking cruel about people who can’t read much (including people who aren’t literate, though this post is from my experience with chronic illness). like, one of my main motivations behind posting excerpts of butch+femme writing on my main (@campgender ; it’s fine to go through my bookshelf tag but please only followers age 18+ on that blog!) is that it is fucking hard to read a full book!!

my reading comprehension & stamina decreased drastically when i developed ME, & while i’m overjoyed that i’ve recently regained a lot of that particular ability since getting blackout curtains, there are absolutely still texts i can’t even begin to parse that i once would’ve loved digging into — texts that it would be actively dangerous for me to attempt to struggle through because it would break pacing.

idk i’m not trying to be self-congratulatory here or whatever but like. the second i could access information through this means again, the focus of my (very fucking limited!!) energy has been giving it back to my people. my life has been unquestionably, deeply shaped by tumblr users who share excerpts of theory & memoir & poetry because they were providing labor of which i was in need & incapable.

finding, selecting, transcribing, formatting, & at times contextualizing passages takes a lot of fucking time & energy, but in order for me to encounter certain concepts, experiences, & histories, it’s work somebody else had to do, because i couldn’t read 200 pages of research or anthology in order to encounter the 10 that would change my life — but posted 2 or 3 pages at a time, i could save that in my drafts to get through on a good day, & quotes that were only a couple lines i could usually read right when i encountered them.

so, in memory of the years i spent unable to access theory through anything other than excerpts & secondhand summaries,

and in anticipation of the years to come where i will live the same,

and in acceptance that the brain is a muscle, in love of we the exercise-intolerant,

to you, dear reader — whatever form & frequency & duration that reading may take, even if it’s no further than this post — i make my motherfucking covenant: the issues i discuss around pulling quotes will be about the political act of the ellipse and the ethics of transcription, not shaming people for the methods of accessing information that are available to them. as often & as long as i am able, people can ask me to explain something or summarize in plain language and i will meet them with respect, interest, & effort. if someone’s looking for information on a particular topic, identity, experience & doesn’t have the energy to find it, i’m gonna give what i have towards filtering through the bullshit for the gems.

according to our abilities. according to our needs.

and the next time somebody tells you it’s not ableist to say everyone has to read [whatever work], tell them to go put their precious ability to better use in making it more accessible.

thinking about the sapphicism of timepetals

the doctor in denial about being in love with rose, the moment where he FINALLY allows himself to feel it to the point where it kills him.

and then tenrose where ten is literally born out of love for rose and they’re so so attentive to their affections. rose literally tells him she loves him because she thinks she’ll never see him again and he wants so badly to say it back and they’re both so devastated when he doesn’t even though they know.

and i think that’s so beautiful.
