The thing about Cottagecore is that is a fetishized aesthetic of country life, divorced from labor and idealized by a primarily urban audience with a backward looking ethos of tradition. They are not prepared for the stresses of a rural life: farming; harvesting; tapping pumpkins to ensure none of them have been replaced with flesh; losing out on income by having to use one of your pigs in a blood sacrifice to paint protective sigils over your doors and windows; checking cracks and chimneys for the flesh-vines of the Pumpkin Lord; having to decide, before the Growth is complete, whether that's really your tradwife or an amassment of vines, leaves, and blood in the shape of your tradwife; ignoring their desperate pleas that "I'm me! No! No!" as you burn them alive, realizing too late you picked wrong; and the exploitative corporate nature of commercial farming in 2024. All seen through a deeply colonial lens, of course

nothing makes me go "ooooh we are NOT the same" quite like reading some post about how people talk with their parents about their interests. what do you mean you told your father about stevebucky. what do you mean he asked further questions

I will NEVER forget the time I was dating a girl and went on a camping trip with her and her family, and we were hanging out drawing together, and she said "hey mom check this out" and showed her mother a suggestive Team Fortress 2 fanart she was working on and my eyes nearly shot out of my skull

#my mom knows about my fics#smut and all#might be tmi but i actually told her when i lost my virginity#she teases me constantly but it's all in good fun#she gets excited about all the people i meet when i go to conventions#i told her i'll probably be going to fan expo boston and she thinks it's so cool#she's also the reason why i got so into star wars#she actually told me that she swore she was gonna marry luke 🤣🤣🤣#her dad actually took her to see it in theaters in 1977#i actually talked her into getting her first tattoo and now she has 5 lol#anyways yeah#i love my mommy#i'm a huge baby when it comes to her although i'm the middle child#(sorry for saying actually so much)#(bad habit)

Anonymous asked:

Please keep posting about this Taylor Swift situation. it's so entertaining and hilarious to me. It's not the drama it's the absurdity and ridiculousness of it all that has me hooked.

tallymali answered:

god theres sooooo many shenanigans that have happened over the years but if we’re talking right now, then uh, here is a story in pictures involving a (justified) bad review for her album

the extremely normal fandom is trying to doxx and harass literally every member of staff they can find at this publication. they were also tweeting gifs of exploding buildings at them and saying “this will be ur hq” and yeah, its likely jokes, but they’re flying pretty close to an investigation there lmao
