i'd save the farm @amnyatas - Tumblr Blog

yeah what the hell. indefinite hiatus on this blog. will probably unfollow a lot of people—no hard feelings, just moving on. i think its time to let go of some things i keep holding onto long after they've turned to dust. might post in an archival sense now and then.

my old pinned post with my character roster and stuff, for posterity's sake

was fun while it lasted, only the future knows if i will come back or not. will probably post some gw2 art to my art blog, @astroanthesis . main blog is @silvacentric if you really want me around i guess? lmao

my farewell message: listen to others and be more understanding. use your brain. love and respect women. [x]

ngl i do miss posting abt my ocs and editing pics and stuff. i've been slowly dipping back into gw2 and getting to enjoy myself a lot more. the switch to Eidoline has felt so natural and wonderful and its a weight off my shoulders and a boon to creativity.

but maybe it hasn't been long enough. i don't know. i miss the chill folks tho. space has done me good but idk i probably need more.

there's this resentment i still have towards some interactions in this community (which continued even after i went on hiatus! like damn i thought i was petty!). i don't wanna restart fresh, but i also wanna post again, for me and folks who actually give a shit i guess.

#cyan.txt #its really funny that the moment i went on hiatus the discussions abt misogyny in fandom blew up #but considering how little folks listened here when i said the same shit. and how much worse its getting out there.#makes me reluctant to come back without a lot of blocking and housekeeping.

For a game that apparently has 20 million players I don’t think I’ve ever found another gw2 player in the wild

Doing fractals today and while in Twilight Oasis, heard @wall-legion's video start playing Caramelldansen behind me. It genuinely startled me, and I said out loud into a hot mic with my guildies "IS THAT CARAMELLDANSEN?"

There was some confusion until I heard (I think it was) Ej say "I thought you meant JOKO was doing Caramelldansen."

And now I can't get the mental image out of my head.

#we as a community deserve a caramelldansen joko gif

Come one, come all! Have you ever seen so many merfolk in one place? Win big, and you could take home a rare specimen of your own! Why, just look at how... hale and hearty they all are!

[GORK] is proud to present our first ever MerMay art collaboration! We've spent this past month trawling all of Tyria's oceans and waterways for only the finest, freshest catch! As you can see, most of them survived the journey home, and some of them are even sort of happy to be here! (ㅅ´ ˘ `)♡

All featured OC's and their respective artists under the cut! How many friends do you recognize? :D

saw this comment about gorseval on the gw2 subreddit and I’m enamored by the idea of gorseval but like, made of horses.

i'm more sorry i don't have anything else to post OTL

more or less i've just been. going Thru It this month mentally and never got around to doing much of anything but being miserable and also physically ill too

haven't felt the urge to actually go in and grind, bc that's p much all that's left, story's not...it's not bad or uninteresting i'm just not all that interested rn

i suppose i could actually go in and take screenshots. or draw. ha ha god it'd be nice to actually draw. got that weird invisible wall stopping me from just doing it. thought maybe forcing myself not to for awhile bc i'm probably still burned out would help but alas.

idk i also don't feel like seeing this blog as something i need to 'run' either. idk. transitory periods and all that.

still was andante's month even if i did absolutely nothing with her. meant to do art and screenshots and a whole lotta stuff but. eh. didn't.

why do i keep posting discourse shit tho. idk. maybe i'm resentful of some of my experiences and need to get over it myself. i'm a grudgy bitch, that's for sure.

#i SHOULD just put this blog on hiatus and not think about it but. eh.#might be moving quite soon anyway. in with my birth mom and siblings. might not even have time to do all this.

i love braham i love women don't test me

"why can't gw2 writing be good?" it is good his name is braham eirsson and he has one of the most compelling character arcs i have ever seen, especially his relationship with the Commander, but y'all can't appreciate what you have because it's a big brown boy. fuck off.

zhaitandeeznutz

actually i'm not done yet when we meet Braham he's a teenager under the age of majority. Not in his 20s, not even 18, at most he's 17 although he reads as 15-almost-16 (evidenced how he's about the same maturity as Taimi who is confirmed 16 at the end of HoT). He's a minor, he's a boy. He doesn't even have facial hair, and you know it's a cultural norm for adult norn men to have facial hair.

Not only is he faced with being perceived as an adult because norn are physically larger, he's been put through the same adultification that IRL brown boys and teenagers face every day by the fandom (and even some of the characters - just after her introduction, Logan instantly assumed that Braham was adult enough to watch after the obviously teenaged Taimi when they're the same fucking age). That adultification is why brown boys are one of the most vulnerable populations to police violence and often get batshit insane prison sentences for normal teenager shenanigans while their white peers maybe get fined and have to do community service.

His actions are treated by the fandom with the same gravitas as a fully mature adult even though by all accounts he probably couldn't even get an American drivers license! If Braham were a real life brown teenager the majority of the fandom would've called the cops on him for 'loitering' and then said he deserved to be shot, maced, and serve five years in an adult prison for it! It's insidious!

Unlearn your racism, learn to value black and brown people across all walks of existence, and fucking APOLOGIZE to my sweet boy Braham Eirsson.

#people are so awful about him and the only conclusion i can make is that #a) racism plays a large role and b) players who see themselves as the main character and thus everyone has to be nice to them...#the commander isn't the main character in gw2. there is no main character in gw2. that's the point. its an ensemble cast. you're part of it.#and having complex characters means having complex emotions and motivations #like goddamn think abt how he feels. he loses his father as a child and begins to resent his mother #once he meets his mother and they actually talk they start to slowly rebuild their relationship. only for it to be ripped away from him.#he's not just grieving her but all his losses at once. he's missing his dad again no doubt.#the cruel twist of fate that took his second chance with his mom away. they could fight side by side! but no he lost that too.#to be barely an adult and have all that loss...i'd be angry at the world too. why did this all have to happen to him?#to hate braham is to be so up your ass you can't see the forest for the trees. and or you're a racist prick. its quite simple.
