Call me Oliver, Banquo, or Holden!

Pronouns are he/they/xe/void/star/aeon/♾️/🥀/⏳!

This blog is an accepting place for all queer people, disabled people, people of color, immigrants, and marginalized people in general. I support all genders and all sexualities! I support all good faith identities.

If the world hates you for your identity, I will love and respect you. It’s as simple as that. <3

I am Level 1 Autistic and I use AAC as needed. Please use tone indicators with me!

I have moral OCD so sometimes my blog may get political to shut the intrusive thoughts up, sorry! I like having a concrete reminder of my actual beliefs so my intrusive thoughts can’t convince me that I actually believe them.

I am a current Hellenic polytheist who actively worships Hephaestus, Hera, Apollon, Dionysos, Persephone, Hades, Hermes, and Athena! I also worship Hestia from time to time, as She is the First and Last :)

Fandoms and Interests: Minecraft, Lydia the Bard, the Sims 4, Percy Jackson, DC, Marvel, Disney, chemistry

I fully support a Disney boycott, if you read my page please remember to avoid giving that shitty brand any of your money. I post headcanons and fanfics about my comfort characters because it makes me smile: I hope it makes you smile as much as I do :)

My AO3 is aeonsofstars. That is also my handle on en.pronouns.page (the pronouns page website). I mostly write Twisted Tales and cool one-shots!

[kropotkindersurprise]

May 18, 2025 - Over a 100.000 people marched in The Hague, making it the largest demonstration in the Netherlands in 20 years, to condemn the Israeli genocide of the Palestinian people, and the complicity in this genocide of the Dutch government, universities, businesses and other institutions. Most protesters came to the protest dressed in red, saying "Israel has to be stopped now, we are drawing the red line!", because even open ethnic cleansing, bombing of hospitals and ambulances, deliberate starving of children, constant war crimes and open genocide in general apparently aren't a red line for Israel to cross in the eyes of the Dutch government.

will you help Omar?

Yes I will send 10+ euros

Yes I will send 50+ euros

Yes I will share this

Voting ended onMay 19, 2025

my friend Omar is still desperately in need of funds. he is living in a tent, often going entire day without eating and his mental health and suicidal ideation have been awful as conditions worsen. the prospect of escaping seems far off and now it is simply trying to afford food to last day to day. he has endured so much loss of his family and friends and teammates (he played football before the destruction and displacement) Omar is a selfless, community minded man, and a radiant presence in this world, struggling with depression and being crushed by this brutal occupation.

please help him and his family out; he is on insta and appreciates anyone sharing his posts or kind words. he speaks often of how much people ignore you if you are Black and Palestinian. please don't ignore this and consider skipping one small thing in your day to day, anything, and directing that to this campaign instead.

his campaign is also verified by the butterfly effect project mutual aid collective on line 1044

A group of trans women protesting outside Scottish parliament to condemn the UK Supreme Court’s bioessentialist ruling on sex, and the response of the Scottish government. All are wearing black pants, black tape across their mouths or a black KN95, and their right arms are painted red as "a mark of solidarity with anti-fascist feminists across Europe." | May 17th, 2025

“This ruling, and the subsequent EHRC guidance aims to segregate trans people from safe spaces that they have for used for decades without issue. We are demanding that the Scottish government stand up for its trans citizens by fighting this ruling and appealing to the European Court of Human Rights.”

One of the demonstrators, Sugar, described the protests as "a public act of grief, resistance and solidarity to highlight the hypocrisy of the ruling. If the Supreme Court can see these woman legally as men, then they’ll have zero issue with them going tops off.”

[genderoutlaws]

edit/update: Rose has released uncensored versions of the protest photos on twitter alongside this press release

"Yesterday a group of trans women protested topless to condemn the UK Supreme Court’s ruling and highlight the hypocrisy of the subsequent EHRC interim guidance which aims to segregate trans women.

Most media outlets censored the images which we feel defeats the purpose."

“This isn’t really America, this isn’t us!”

Oh but I’m afraid it IS us.

This country has been this way for 249 years and counting, ever since the first colonizer landed on this continent, wealthy oppressors have been in control in the most cruel and inhumane ways you can imagine. Our forefathers built our towns and cities with slavery, they manufactured wars and political battles to justify their objective inhumanity, they put native people in the first concentration camps, they called queer people pinkos and degenerates and poisoned us with aids, they built a system around the exploitation of black labor, and they used fascism to convince us that communism was the worst evil there is while subjecting us all to evils of our own making. They invaded other countries to steal their oil under the guise of terrorism, which so many of us believed and still do believe, and they have convinced us that we are the common enemy, not the ruling aristocrat billionaires who sell your soul to feed you poison. This country is, has always been, and if we don’t change it NOW, will always be, a racist, homophobic, sexist, totalitarian fascist empire built on intolerance and ignorance. This IS who we are. Don’t be so naive as to believe otherwise, but try and fight all you can to change it Instead, while we still can.

[firewirecompatible]

everyone say thank you to black trans women and black trans men

[ghostboyravenight-deactivated20]

i’d also like to say thank you to black non-binary people and black intersex people

[aeonsofstars]

thank you all black gender non conforming folks

[al-funcoot-vfd-deactivated20250]

You want to be right. As all noble people do. But how could you be? With all that has gone wrong… You didn’t start the fire. But you let it spread. Remember that, as you close your eyes and look away. There are no innocents. 👁️

happy aapi month yall

[apollohour]

This is super late into the month, but happy AAPI month to all the Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders out there!

And a small reminder to show some love to your Asian American and Pacific Islander loved ones. Watch some AAPI films and read some books. Learn our histories, of which there are many, as well as how we are interwoven into America's history too. Cook some food and share it in the community. Just engage, I promise the people around you will appreciate it.

We need more love and representation out there <3

[theseustheking-deactivated20251]

here’s your daily dose of motivation :)

Thank you Banquo, I needed this

I was thinking of my Cabin 9 OCs and I realized all of them had to fight to be loved

Everyone sees Bhairavi as a stone-cold bitch but her girlfriend left her and she’s unused to being loved

Florian has something to prove

Aditya is so used to being the “imperfect Indian child” that he doesn’t see how good he actually is

[angelshizuka]

Am I the only one who think the "anyone should be able to learn how to cook, because you literally just have to follow a recipe" take is ableist? Because like... whoa, it's almost like "struggles to follow intrusctions" is an extremely common symptom for a lot of neurodivergent disorders?!

And Idk, maybe it's also because I had actual cooking classes in high school (we even had a little restaurant ran by the students), but yes, there are in fact different levels of cooking skills and how much someone can follow a recipe, which yes, will heavily impact the final product and wheter it's edible or not.

Just because cooking is a life skill doesn't mean everyone can easily learn how to do it. Even IF they eventually learn by just "trying harder" it doesn't change the fact they litetally can't learn without screwing it up along the way, which y'all assholes won't let them do without shaming them for "failing as a human".

And no, the "but some do it on purpose as weaponized incompetence :(" argument is no excuse to attack literally everyone who struggles with cooking. You will never truly know how hard someone is genuinely trying behind all their "failing".

(I'm saying this as someone with like basic average cooking skills.)

[aeonsofstars]

everyone should have access to healthy and affordable food, whether they cook it themself or they access it from a restaurant :)

[amygdalae]

i think “video games aren’t really the violent child-corrupting threat some parents worry they are” and “certain circles of gamer culture are incredibly toxic and can lead people down dangerous/hateful ideological rabbit holes” are ideas that can absolutely coexist

[aspiringwarriorlibrarian]

Artificial violence is not actually a corrupting influence but hanging out with assholes sure is.

[roach-works]

the real corruption was the friends we made along the way

[vampfire1]

accessibility is not just a (usually too steep) ramp and a half working elevator you need a key for. it's also:

access to mobility aids

closed captioning, interpreters, and transcripts for those who need them OR those who prefer them

sensory safe enviroments

dim lighting

flexible seating, lights, and noise control

online forms and websites that screen readers are able to access properly

elevators that are free for everyone to use

wider doors

braille

clear signage

transit that is easy to navigate

if your "accessible" space has a ramp that doubles as a slide and a sketchy elevator you need a key for, you're fucking doing it wrong.
