Intro Time
Hello all, my name is Avi (AY-vee)!
I use he, she, they, and it, though they change over time. I'm nonbinary and aromantic!
Currently into Malevolent and Identity V!
Other interests include Slay the Princess, The Magnus Archives, The Legend of Zelda (and Linked Universe), In Stars and Time, and various other things I can't think of right now.
Also, I have a couple blogs for my tma ocs, you should check them out at @the-redwings-fifteen
Everybody say "thank you south america" for the humble potato
Actually let's get specific with it
*checks wiki*
Everybody say thank you indigenous people of present-day southern Peru and extreme northwestern Bolivia from 7-10,000 years ago for the humble potato
is that song actually character-coded or is your brain a character-shaped hammer looking for lyrics to nail down somewhere
Prompt-based fandom events are when you really learn everyone’s colors like you’ll find the people who take the prompt “death” and come up with some smarmy ship-art of character A and character B walking over dead leaves while wearing scarves and drinking hot cider and then you’ll find the people who take the prompt “sunshine” and write how a bright glint of sunshine reflected off the barrel of a gun is the absolute last thing character A sees before taking a bullet to the chest
you can lead a content creator to water but you sure as fuck can’t make him drink
content creators, much like the elder gods, must not be given requests that can be left to interpretation, for the results bring madness upon the unwary
hehe hoho haircut appointment tomorrow 😎😎😎 assuming things go perfectly I can look more like I do On The Inside 😎😎😎😎 I can go from 💇♀️ to 💇 hehehehehehehhehe
Be careful of Asexuals y'all, I heard they aren't fucking around
it's a moral failing to still be a harry potter fan
if you ever worry to yourself that still liking harry potter makes you a bad person it's because it does
don't engage with Harry Potter media such as streaming, buying merch, or listening to soundtracks.
instead, pirate, bootleg, and diy. watch the movies via thrifted DVDs. if you must get merch, thrift that too! you can always find Harry Potter stuff at 2nd hand stores.
moral of the story, keep your morals and ideals in mind when spending you money.
do you really want to give a racist terf your money?
jesus fucking christ just let it go. shut the fuck up and just let it go. you are still supporting the IP you are still keeping it relevant you are still signaling to people that its a cool thing to be into. you are splitting hairs about how to still have your blorbos while we are talking about the public & explicit funding of a hate movement. it couldn't be more obvious that your motivation is not to be criticized and not to help anybody who is more vulnerable than you. fuck you. shut the fuck up.
If I see you in public wearing a Harry Potter shirt I'm not asking you if you bought it ethically I'm just going to avoid you because you're walking around signaling that you aren't a safe person.
People are unfazed if you hate women but if you dislike dogs they assume you're a bad person
Tumblr users will read a post complaining about normalized misogyny and hyperfocus on your claim that it's ok to dislike dogs
At this point in think that D&D has more ardent support than lutheranism. And it's adherents are somehow even more annoying.
this is officially my worst post... god... i've lost everyuthing... fuck... fuck....!
THIS IS THE FUNNIEST WAY TO FUMBLE SOMEONE
drives me nuts when ppl act like its somehow feminist to be a huge asshole to people because 'men are allowed to behave that way,' or whatever. ok. well i dont think men should be treating people like that either. and if they talk to me like you are talking to me, i will judge and avoid them as well.
"society gives men a pass for behaving in hurtful and selfish ways without consideration for the impact it has on the people around them, particularly those with less power" yeah
"so I'm going to deliberately emulate this behavior, and it will be feminist of me to do so" incorrect
I completely agree - however. I do want to say (and I don't think this is exactly the same as what OP is saying) there are things that are considered fine or neutral when men do them, but bitchy if a woman does.
I'm direct, by that I mean, I don't like couching things in "I know you're trying to help, and I so appreciate that about you, but next time can you X instead of Y?" I say "Hey, I don't like when you X to me. Please don't." It's clear, it's unambiguous, and I think dancing around an issue is confusing or even insulting.
Because I am a woman, I have been told BY OTHER WOMEN, this makes me aggressive and this is bad. I think we can safely say my example is fairly neutral, not outrageously aggressive. I'm not sure how you would make that unambiguously aggressive. Maybe "Stop doing X or I'll punch you," idk.
I'm not sure how to further refine this except to say, sometimes it's not the behavior itself, it's the social, gendered lens put upon it that is eliciting this reaction.
I'm really glad you added this especially since it has moved beyond my immediate friend sphere -- SO many ppl do not understand how unconscious social bias works. And do not think that they could possibly have any. It's actually something you have to actively work to keep in mind ALL of the time. Its not like, one and done. Every time you're reacting to someone, its important to reflect on what that reaction is and why, and what factors are contributing to it. Its important to note who gets socially punished for what behaviors and who doesn't!
i wish this was in my cart and not someone else’s
you can just take it from their cart. its not their possession if they haven't bought it yet
if i were thrift shopping and you put your hands into my cart to take a unique handpicked item i was intending to purchase i would break your legs
so venezuela has become a usamerican colony. like that happened and everything carried on like normal
like i know venezuela is going through a huge humanitarian crisis right now and their political regime is low in the list of priorities when tallinmg about it obviously it's just it shocked me to read trump congratulating his secretary of energy on how well he's running what used to be a sovereign country until a few months back you know
He wants to do that to Canada, Cuba, and Greenland too and is simply shocked that it hasn't happened yet.
Hey so it's worse then that
Does anybody remember when back in January Trump kidnapped the Venezuelan president? Well the American government proceeded to place someone else in charge and is directing them via text message. They are telling him who to appoint into office and allowing US businesses into the country.
They are "not looking to instate democratic elections at this time."
Occupation is a hassle. Large countries have many new ways to control small ones.
It sucks there seems to be a concerted effort to distance the transfem and transmasc communities from each other. If it weren’t for trans women, I probably wouldn’t have realized I was trans until much later in life.
The cis women in my life were so miserable in their womanhood, I thought that misery was normal. Seeing trans women actually love and fight to be seen as women made me question my own misery
Indigenous lands are crucial for climate mitigation and resilience. Research shows their health is a direct result of Indigenous stewardship
While this isn't news to anyone who works in this space, it is useful to have this water-is-wet research to affirm that Indigenous knowledge and land management are extremely effective at storing carbon and protecting biodiversity.
I want to draw special attention to this part of the article:
New research shows that approach overlooks the key role that Indigenous knowledge and culture can play in mitigating climate change. It also reveals a dangerous misconception that has taken hold in global climate discussions: the idea that Indigenous lands are so rich because they are remote or sparsely populated. Nothing could be further from the truth. The health of Indigenous lands and their ability to store vast quantities of carbon stem from the stewardship of the people who inhabit them.
I'm actually bringing this back around to say another important thing.
I get a fair number of asks and comments on my posts expressing sentiments like "human beings are a plague on this Earth", "humans ruin everything, we deserve to be wiped out", "humanity is inherently selfish, evil, and irredeemable".
I don't think the folks saying these things have bad intentions, I know their words come from a place of very understandable pain, fear, and anger. But to act as though humanity's impact on nature is inherently damaging and extractive is to erase thousands of years of Indigenous stewardship of nature. These ecosystems are thriving because there are humans living there.
This is your regular reminder that you don't need to feel guilty for being a human. You are part of nature--viewing humans as inherently separate from the rest of nature is actually part of the problem. You will be so much better served redirecting that guilt into supporting the humans who are helping nature or resisting those who are hurting it.
the unimaginable power of saying "huh, guess that's not for me" and moving on with your life
