Bratře V Triku

Už je to sice nějakou dobu, co jsem se odstěhovala, ale protože můžete dostat děvče z Mendlova náměstí, ale Mendlovo náměstí z děvčete nikdy, anžto tento zážitek vás poznamená víc než cejchování, Zkouška trav a rakovina plic dohromady, představuji vám:

✨MENDLÁK GOTHIC ✨

(aneb Kdyby Stephen King nenapsal Zkratky paní Toddové, napsala bych je já - tak, jako všechny tyto příběhy napsal sám život)

Ve vzduchu se vznáší smrad. Zvěsti říkají, že jde z pivovaru. Ty v něm cítíš továrnu na výrobu gumy, gymplácká léta a zmařené sny. Nepleteš se. Pivovar je Starobrno.

Vejdeš do Alberta, je osm ráno. Moravský bochník je ve slevě za 26 korun, regál je prázdný. Pečivo není. Vejdeš do Alberta, jsou tři odpoledne. Moravský bochník je ve slevě za 26 korun, regál je prázdný. Pečivo není. Vejdeš do Alberta, je osm večer. Moravský bochník je ve slevě za 26 korun, regál je prázdný. Pečivo není. Možná nikdy nebylo. Nevzpomínáš si, jak vypadá obal Moravského bochníku. Nikdy jsi ho neviděl*a. A nikdy neuvidíš.

Přijíždí šalina číslo 1. Směr Pisárky, usoudíš bláhově. Na čele šaliny je nápis se šipkou. Znaky pod ním nejsou v žádném ze kdy existujících živých či mrtvých lidských jazyků.

Světelná tabule ohlašuje příjezd šaliny číslo 5. Přijíždějí čtyři šestky za sebou. Šalina číslo 5 stojí na slepé koleji. Stojí tam už roky. Ještě před chvílí tam nebyla. Odjíždí s rozsvíceným nápisem NENASTUPUJTE. V kabině nikdo není.

Při výstupu z MHD stoupneš přímo do tmavé kaluže. Přinejmenším na 50 % je to krev. Pravděpodobnost se zvyšuje, máš-li v tu chvíli na nohou lodičky.

Když vycházíš z Kouřícího králíka, je čtvrt na dvě ráno. Možná jsi přišel ve tři odpoledne, možná v deset večer, možná ve čtyři v noci (proč mají pořád otevřeno?), nezáleží na tom, když odcházíš, je čtvrt na dvě ráno. Při odchodu ti na cestu hraje živý jazz. Kapela je dávno pryč.

"Skočím jenom pro víno a pro pečivo na zítřek," řekne ti tvůj muž před Albertem. Čekáš venku. "Jdu pro dvě věci, za minutu jsem tu." Už měl být zpátky. Skrze skleněné dveře sleduješ frontu, nedohlédneš na její konec. Tvůj muž v ní nestojí. Proč se ještě nevrátil? Jak vypadal? Na koho tu vůbec čekáš? Jak dlouho už tu čekáš? Tvůj muž se vrací. Oba máte ve tvářích vepsaná desetiletí navíc a skráních šedo. Pečivo zapomněl.

Ráno vstáváš na autobus, kterým jezdíš denně. Zastávka tam není. Cedule chybí, absence jízdního řádu je bolestně hmatatelná. ZASTÁVKA PŘESUNUTA, hlásá nápis s velkým červeným křížem. Vyměníš si pohled s člověkem stojícím vedle tebe, v jeho znavených očích čteš nevyslovenou otázku a poslední záblesk zoufalé naděje, přičemž nebožák už předem tuší, že je marná. Odpovídáš mu beze slov se stejnou hlubokou rezignací vtištěnou do kontur vlastních rysů. Nevíš, kam byla zastávka přesunuta. Nikdo to neví. Možná na jinou úroveň existence. Možná do Prahy.

V 17:59 vyrážíš od letohrádku Mitrovských na divadelní zkoušku, která začíná v 18:00. Rozhodneš se zkrátit si cestu myší dírou za teplárnou. Nekonečně dlouho jdeš tmou. Nevidíš na krok. Zvuky civilizace se stávají matným tušením v dáli. Zapomeneš, který je rok, tvář svého otce a vlastní jméno. Projdeš ohněm a smrtí. Náhle tě vítá světlo a šňůry s vlajícím prádlem. Jsi u Lumosu, je 17:58. Jsi tam první.

Sleduješ, jak se havrani houfují v korunách stromů. Přinejmenším naivně doufáš, že se pod černou masou stále nacházejí stromy. Jistota se s každou další hodinou a každým dalším přiletěvším opeřencem vytrácí. Nevidíš ani zeleň, ani nebe. Jsou zticha. Děsíš se okamžiku, kdy jejich hlasy zazní v unisonu. Sedí. Vyčkávají. Spatříš ještě někdy slunce? Kdoví.

Jdeš kolem Hrachoviny. Alespoň tak jí někteří místní říkají, jiní s hrůzou v očích tlumí hlas. To, jak se pohnula tvým směrem, jakmile jsi odvrátil*a zrak, se ti určitě jen zdálo. Z jakéhosi jistě zcela nesouvisejícího důvodu se následujících několik let odmítáš dívat na desátou epizodu třetí série Doctora Who. Při čekání na rozjezd máš pocit, že ti socha cosi nesrozumitelně šeptá hlasy současných významných osobností města Brna. Když v její blízkosti jednou nedopatřením vyslovíš jméno úřadující imperátorky, zničehonic se odnikud srotí vyděšený mnohohlavý dav a ucpe ti ústa knedlíčkem z bistra Dragon III. Ona tam je. Slyší. Čeká. Nechceš přece, aby se probudila. Nechceš upoutat její pozornost.

DARUJ KREV, spatříš jednoho dne z kuchyňského okna billboard. Je vidět i ze všech ostatních oken. I z těch na opačnou světovou stranu. DARUJ KREV, vyzývá tě přes koruny stromů. Neříká komu. Konečně jednoho dne sebereš odvahu a jdeš si ho prohlédnout zblízka. Na ploše není žádný kontakt ani jakákoli další informace. DARUJ KREV, přikazuje ti billboard.

Všude je zábradlí. Není náměstí, jen zábradlí. "To aby lidi ze zastávek nevbíhali do kolejí a do silnice," říkali. Nevstupují. Není úniku. Zastávky se plní plačícími přeživšími. Už není kam jít. "Ale prý támhle nějaký kousek zase odstraní, aby se tu lépe přecházelo," uslyšíš za sebou konejšivý hlas. Ohlédneš se po jeho původci. Vidíš jen zábradlí.

Slyšíš vzdálené zvuky koncertu z Výstaviště. Jednou je osm večer v pátek, jindy nedělní poledne nebo Štědrý den. Na Výstavišti se vždycky hraje a ty nemůžeš vyvětrat. Pokud jsi tak pomýlený*á a přesto to uděláš, po zásluze tě ztrestá hlas, jenž ti ve tři hodiny ráno pod oknem hlasitě a za použití kompletní sady argumentačních faulů vysvětlí, proč jsou Slováci nejhorší zaměstnanci.

Za kontejnerem u zastávky zahlédneš stín. Je to potkan? Včera to určitě byl potkan. Neuvažuješ nad tím, proč onen stín tentokrát běhá po dvou a zdá se být signifikantně větší než den předtím, ani proč má najednou tolik zubů. Bože, tolik zubů.

(Disclaimer: omlouvám se všem bizarním místům, bytostem a událostem, které jsem do výčtu nezahrnula, má paměť podobna jest ementálu a po dvou letech na Mendlově náměstí bez pračky a s plísní v komoře jsem ráda, že po nocích nevídám tančící luskouny, tzn. milé děti, neutrácejte za halucinogeny, přestěhujte se na Mendlák, xoxo)

theres literally no reason to prefer summer over winter

TIME TO RANDOMIZE YOUR GENITALS

Based on this post. Reblog and tag what you got on the wheel! In the event this breaches containment; I'm a monsterfucker so be warned that a good chunk of these reflect that.

Merlinktober day 25 (Technically 26): Painting

This took a whopping 14 hours to paint. I’m very happy with myself though.

(Even if my Ipad isn’t, it was dying from the amount of detail)

Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

Look buddy, i’m just trying to make it to Friday.

Yuri and LGBTQ+ Manga, Anime, and Games to Enjoy this Pride Month

Manga and Comics

I’m in Love with the Villainess

Ordinary office worker Oohashi Rei wakes up in the body of the protagonist of her favorite otome game, Revolution. To her delight, the first person to greet her is also her favorite character, Claire Francois―the main antagonist of the story! Now, Rei is determined to romance Claire instead of the game’s male leads. But how will her villainous ladylove react to this new courtship?!I’m in Love with the Villainess is an exceptionally queer light novel that openly discusses many aspects of the LGBTQ+ community. It openly labels many of its characters as gay, transgender, or queer and represents LGBTQ+ people and families in a positive way.

Always Human

In the near-future, people use technology to give the illusion of all kinds of body modifications-but some people have “Egan’s Syndrome,” a highly sensitive immune system that rejects these “mods” and are unable to use them. Those who are affected maintain a “natural” appearance, reliant on cosmetics and hair dye at most to help them play with their looks.Sunati is attracted to Austen the first time she sees her and is drawn to what she assumes is Austen’s bravery and confidence to live life unmodded. When Sunati learns the truth, she’s still attracted to Austen and asks her on a date. Gradually, their relationship unfolds as they deal with friends, family, and the emotional conflicts that come with every romance. Together, they will learn and grow in a story that reminds us no matter how technology evolves, we will remain … always human.

I want to live by myself when I move out of my parent's place but I'm really afraid of money problems? I'm afraid that the only place I can afford will be in the ghetto and it'll all be torn apart and I'll only be allowed to eat one granola bar a week. I'm really stressing out about this. I don't know anything about after school life. I don't know anything about paying bills or how to buy an apartment and it's really scaring me. is there anything you know that can help me?

Once you’ve looked over all those cool links, I have some general advice for you on how you can have some sort of support system going for you:

Reasons to move out of home

You may decide to leave home for many different reasons, including:

wishing to live independently

location difficulties – for example, the need to move closer to university

conflict with your parents

being asked to leave by your parents.

Issues to consider when moving out of home

It’s common to be a little unsure when you make a decision like leaving home. You may choose to move, but find that you face problems you didn’t anticipate, such as:

Unreadiness – you may find you are not quite ready to handle all the responsibilities.

Money worries – bills including rent, utilities like gas and electricity and the cost of groceries may catch you by surprise, especially if you are used to your parents providing for everything. Debt may become an issue.

Flatmate problems – issues such as paying bills on time, sharing housework equally, friends who never pay board, but stay anyway, and lifestyle incompatibilities (such as a non-drug-user flatting with a drug user) may result in hostilities and arguments.

Your parents may be worried

Think about how your parents may be feeling and talk with them if they are worried about you. Most parents want their children to be happy and independent, but they might be concerned about a lot of different things. For example:

They may worry that you are not ready.

They may be sad because they will miss you.

They may think you shouldn’t leave home until you are married or have bought a house.

They may be concerned about the people you have chosen to live with.

Reassure your parents that you will keep in touch and visit regularly. Try to leave on a positive note. Hopefully, they are happy about your plans and support your decision.

Tips for a successful move

Tips include:

Don’t make a rash decision – consider the situation carefully. Are you ready to live independently? Do you make enough money to support yourself? Are you moving out for the right reasons?

Draw up a realistic budget – don’t forget to include ‘hidden’ expenses such as the property’s security deposit or bond (usually four weeks’ rent), connection fees for utilities, and home and contents insurance.

Communicate – avoid misunderstandings, hostilities and arguments by talking openly and respectfully about your concerns with flatmates and parents. Make sure you’re open to their point of view too – getting along is a two-way street.

Keep in touch – talk to your parents about regular home visits: for example, having Sunday night dinner together every week.

Work out acceptable behaviour – if your parents don’t like your flatmate(s), find out why. It is usually the behaviour rather than the person that causes offence (for example, swearing or smoking). Out of respect for your parents, ask your flatmate(s) to be on their best behaviour when your parents visit and do the same for them.

Ask for help – if things are becoming difficult, don’t be too proud to ask your parents for help. They have a lot of life experience.

If your family home does not provide support

Not everyone who leaves home can return home or ask their parents for help in times of trouble. If you have been thrown out of home or left home to escape abuse or conflict, you may be too young or unprepared to cope.

If you are a fostered child, you will have to leave the state-care system when you turn 18, but you may not be ready to make the sudden transition to independence.

If you need support, help is available from a range of community and government organisations. Assistance includes emergency accommodation and food vouchers. If you can’t call your parents or foster parents, call one of the associations below for information, advice and assistance.

Where to get help

Your doctor

Kids Helpline Tel. 1800 55 1800

Lifeline Tel. 13 11 44

Home Ground Services Tel. 1800 048 325

Relationships Australia Tel. 1300 364 277

Centrelink Crisis or Special Help Tel. 13 28 50

Tenants Union of Victoria Tel. (03) 9416 2577

Things to remember

Try to solve any problems before you leave home. Don’t leave because of a fight or other family difficulty if you can possibly avoid it.

Draw up a realistic budget that includes ‘hidden’ expenses, such as bond, connection fees for utilities, and home and contents insurance.

Remember that you can get help from a range of community and government organizations.
