-this blog is not 18+, i don't mind minors following me, though some questionable memes may be reblogged sometimes. please read below the cut for what i tag for that!
-i don't have a dni because i just block people instead. however, i don't tolerate transphobia and transmisogyny, aphobia, racism, antisemitism, fatphobia, and the like. free palestine. i also simply block people who i just don't want interacting with me for any various reasons.
-my lovely fiancée is @jessicameleon and should go check her out!!! 💜💕💜💕
-my ask box is open if you need things to be tagged! i will do my best to tag them
-i have a side blog, @art-thallea for my artwork!
tags i use are below the cut!
TAGS I USE
-notsfw/notsfw text: for funny text posts or memes that may contain sexual or otherwise not sfw themes, but may be hard to discern from a distance.
-skylar talks: my personal posts! okay to reblog unless stated otherwise in the tags
-ask to tag: i'm unsure what to tag it, ask if you want it tagged
-fave: hall of fame posts, probably made me laugh harder than it should have
-happy tag: self explanatory. stuff that made me laugh or happy that i would come back to on a sad day
-(animal/character/thing) tag: pictures/posts relating to something i really like, like elephants and rocks! (disclaimer: the snail tag often contains snail-adjacent creatures for simplicity)
-ref: a post i wanna come back to later, usually for art inspiration
i also tag food, flashing lights, arachnophobia, and other common triggers/fears. those will just be tagged with the associated name! (i.e. food, insects, spiders, etc.)
the rest of the tags i use are also pretty self explanatory!
if you're ever beating yourself up for 'missing the obvious hints' that someone is romantically interested in you, know this: i once met a guy who asked out a girl after she sent him nude pictures of herself in the bath and she said she wasn't interested. it is never obvious
the amount of leftists who uncritically support the DSM-5—wielding it online in battles against random individuals who might be “faking” a disorder—boggles my fucking mind. you guys realize that the DSM-5 isn’t the only diagnostic manual on the planet, right? you realize that we place it at the top of the global hierarchy because it’s american, right? has it occurred to you that the APA shouldn’t have so much authority over what counts as a “real” mental illness? has it occurred to you that perhaps there are other diagnostic manuals? in fact, there are dimensional models that don’t rely on sorting individuals into “disorder/no disorder” boxes in the first place. food for thought, lmao
A flashy seafloor Ferrari, prowling the derelict mudflats like Le Tigra. It’s clear this zoo lander is winning its seafloor walk-off with a signature look: Blue Steel.
This opalescent nudibranch, Hermissenda opalescens, is one of Monterey Bay’s model nudibranch sea slugs—while also being one of its most dazzling. Thanks to local scientific diver and biologist Kate Vylet for the photo!
Hilton’s aeolid (Phidiana hiltoni) is here for your daily nudi-break! This magnificent nudibranch sea slug is known for its pugnacious behavior, often biting and fighting with other aeolids!
