With the internet age, not only would being stuck in a groundhog day loop for 10,000 years be strictly positive, it might not even feel like enough time!
Am I the only one who fantasizes about being stuck in a time loop?
About how from everybody else’s perspective you emerge the next day with a lifetime’s mastery of hundreds of subjects? How you shoot to being the most famous author since you’ve expiremented with every possible scheme for getting the most likes on amateur sites for hundreds of years until one worked, how you suddenly arrive with scientific breakthroughs that revolutionize several fields, you’re soon a chess grandmaster, a go 9-dan, the top player at all kinds of games and e-sports, speaker of all the major world languages…
The main problem with time loops in the past was getting bored but there is way more than 10,000 years of stuff to do online.
Time loop is a huge power fantasy daydream for me. It’s even cooler than the standard fantasy of getting Isekai’d into a game world where you know all the mechanics front to back and can manipulate them to get to the top. Because it’s basically that but for this world!
I haven’t been on tumblr in ages but someone brought this post (and another) to my attention so here’s your story:
For starters, yes it’s real. The movie is called Merry Kissmas and you can see us in the opening credits. It’s a cheesy romcom christmas movie you can find on Netflix. I watched it, it’s so cheesy lol.
What happened was I was staying in this hotel in Downtown LA for Anime Expo and on my way back to the room, this film crew approached us and asked us to be extras in his movie because “it’ll be funny!” Sure why not! So it was totally intentional.
I still cosplay Fenris from time to time but I’m more active on my Facebook page if you want to find me/credit me!
Reading about how intersex athletes have been treated is so fucking horrible. The countless lies and human rights violations. The discrimination and how it’s ruined the lives of so many people is so awful. There has been no apologies from any athletics comptetions or organizations. They have blood on their hands. Just a tw for intersexism and mental health issues and suicide in the next paragraph because it can get pretty heavy.
Annet Negesa, who was a middle distance runner. She was suddenly barred from competing due to her hormones. No one told her why. She was then told she needed to take medication to lower her testosterone, then what she was told was switched. She was lied to about a surgery that she was told was like an injection and would let her compete again. She woke up with scars and had had a gonadectomy. That violation of basic human rights and medical ethics combined with inadequate postsurgical care basically ended her career. She deserves justice. She deserves apologies from the Olympics and everyone single doctor who was involved in it, and compensation and the promise that it should never have happened and will never happen again. She. Needs. Justice.
Pratima Gaonkar needs justice. She was a rising track and field star. After forced sex verificatiom she killed herself. The way media and news treated her after her death was disgusting. She deserves and needs justice. Her family deserves justice.
Santhi Soundarajan had her medals stripped and was treated as an outcast after forced sex verification showed she had androgen insensitivity syndrome. She was treated as an outcast, her gender was mocked. She’s spoken out about how much discrimination she’s faced, and how badly she’s been treated. She now works as a coach, but was barred from competing. She deserves justice.
Caster Semenya deserves justice. Francine Niyonsaba deserves justice. Margaret Wambui deserves justice. Barbra Banda deserves justice. Beatrice Masilingi and Christine Mboma deserve justice.
The racism and intersexism and horrible human rights violations and medical abuse these women have faced for the supposed crime of being intersex and good at a sport is horrible. They deserve justice, but the organizations that perpetuate these atrocities don’t seem to care. It’s so fucking horrible.
Hey. HEY. Everyone listen up.
There is a common thread besides intersexism here, too. They are all people of colour. Take note.
