HEY TUMBL FRIENDS

So I had to change my phone number for reasons and Staff won’t let me deactivate my 2FA so as soon as this browser logs my ass out that’s it, this account is over, along with axes_and_eyepatches, my long neglected XIV blog. So I’m nipping it in the ass and I’ve remade sort of. RIP alteiriaa (now alteiriaa–old), Long live @alteiriaa! I’ll leave this all up so I can come back and reblog shit off of it maybe, but for now I gotta get some crap on there. Feel free to refollow – I’ll follow back. <3 Catch you guys on the flipside!

Attention all Warriors of Light:

Eorzea is in GREAT DANGER and Sultana Nanamo Ul Namo needs YOUR help to wipe out all of the Imperials from Ala Mhigo, but to do this she needs extra funding for the Eorzean Alliance! To help her, all she needs is your credit card number, the three digits on the back, and the expiration month and year. But, you GOTTA BE SWIFT WARRIORS, or Emperor Varis zos Galvus will secure the border, whip nae nae on us NOOBS and achieve another SICK W!!

stop looking for some specific type of closure you’ll never get. Closure doesn’t mean verbal verification of the end. If a person dropped you like you meant nothing to them and never told you why or said goodbye, it means they didn’t care enough to treat you right and never will and that you’re better off without them. That’s the end. That’s your closure.

Just a reminder:

I do not practice reblog karma, so please always feel free to reblog prompts from me without sending one in! It is 100% something I am okay with. I never want people to feel obligated to interact with my characters.

Hi, I’m Mattoid Shappo,welcome to Jackass.

I strongly believe the most dangerous RPers are the ones who both feel very entitled to the things they want and who use RP as an escape or to satisfy a strong need they have that they cannot fulfill IRL.

I think we all have had really low points in our lives where the RP/game was our only happy place and it is understandable to seek shelter there. There can also be a lot of healthy catharsis that comes with RP that I think is good for people to experience and explore.

But RP should primarily be about having fun exploring cool narratives with other human beings and it all veers into more dangerous territory when the roleplay stops becoming just our silly, relaxing, pretendy fun times hobby and instead morphs into our one escape or one thing that can satisfy the powerful IRL need we have. It’s weight and importance dramatically shifts. It stops being just a game. It becomes something else.

Add in a sense of entitlement and you have a person ripe for smashing through other people’s boundaries in order to get the RP they want.

Someone might want romance, sex, attention, or the illusion of power and can’t get those things IRL. But once they find they can have some variant of it througu RP instead and feel entitled to it, it becomes all too easy at that point to decide it is okay to hurt, manipulate, or control people in order to get what you ‘deserve’.

So if you find yourself RPing with someone who fills the missing gaps in their life with RP - be wary and careful. Remember you should ALWAYS feel empowered to assert your boundaries.

If you yourself realise you are using RP to fill gaps you are missing IRL - don’t. It doesn’t automatically make you a monster, but the risk that you might harm someone is greater. It is unhealthy and though the work will be very hard, investing in your IRL to the point where you don’t need RP to plug the gaping hole in your life is incredibly rewarding and better than any flimsy simulation of things RP could conjure up for you.
