“my father is a boy and my mother is a girl so i’m mixed” is the funniest possible response to someone asking your gender and it came from 6’5 Viking footballer and notable weird little guy Erling Haaland on a Snapchat

I think a lot of people have trouble understanding transgender issues because they try to see themselves as trans, but come at it from the wrong direction. e. g. a cis woman tries to understand transness by going, “what if I felt like/wanted to be a man” when she should be approaching it as “what if I, a woman, was so easily mistaken for a man that I had to pretend to be one”,

And I think this is something to keep in mind and to explain away when trying to get these matters across to people who’re new to the idea.

Bloodweave but Astarion is very cat like

Instead of using his words to say his feelings for gale, he leaves dead animals in front of his tent after he drains their blood so gale can cook with it. Gale was horrified when he walked out and there was a dead rabbit until he looked up and saw Astarion going like :3 in the distance.

———

Astarion will be arguing with anyone AND everyone, but will willingly stand next to gale ONLY. Or karlach bc she’s really toasty and he loves that toastiness. Maybe Halsin on a good day and if Halsin lures him out.

———

Cats HATE IT when u rub or touch their belly. For Astarion, it’s his back (go figure).

BUT Astarion loves it when Gale scratches his ears, or strokes his hair. (Gale is using all his Tara knowledge rn)

———

Does it make sense for Astarion to make biscuits? No. But I do think it’ll be funny if he and Gale are cuddling, and Gale all of a sudden feels Astarion’s claws go in and out of his sleep shirt absentmindedly and he goes “u making biscuits” and astarion is like “no wtf??” (As he continues to make biscuits)

NSFW WARNING!!!!

(astarion DOES leave claws on Gale’s back though)

———

Yes vampires purr bc i think its really fucking cute and you cant stop me. Astarion, trancing while Gale reads, and Gale just absentmindedly scratches his ears and Astarion starts fucking PURRING. Gale is cooing internally.

(Also was late to making dinner bc thats the rule of cats - if they sleep on u YOU STAY STILL)

———

Astarion’s ears are also very expressive bc I Said So, and they’ll go in Airplane mode right before he pounces when he’s hunting. Or when he’s about to sneak attack in battle.

(act 1) Astarion: “yeah idgaf abt Gale who cares abt that annoying wizard”

Shadowheart: “mhmmm… sure”

*Gale’s voice is heard amongst the party returning*

Astarion, unaware his ears just perked up comically: “i cannot stand him”

Most of the fandom hates Halsin pointing out the inherent violence in Drow society because it's mean to their Tav or whatever. I hate it because I wish it was paired with Halsin absolutely refusing to romance a Lolth-sworn Tav and only being okay with a Seldarine Tav.

Chat, is it considered “abusive roommate behavior” to release a raccoon into the living space after you have asked your roommate for months to please clean up their messes (they do not pay any of the mortgage)

[raccoonmilf]

For context, when I used to live alone I would do something called “Princess Time” where I would do an initial sweep (to remove any significant hazards) and then I would release a raccoon into the living area and clean. This helped because I would 1) feel like a princess and 2) the raccoon would bring attention to things my ADHD brain had decided to ignore and I’d quickly clean that stuff up.

So like, if I’m expected to clean the house now, I will be doing it in the way that is most effective for me. And anything that has not been cleaned up after months of having sit-down talks and sending reminders and being promised things will change, might be deemed “trash” by the trash panda and thrown away.

[raccoonmilf]

We haven’t done since we moved into the house, because I didn’t want to cause my roommate or their cats destress or have their things destroyed by a raccoon

[raccoonmilf]

I am a raccoon biologist and one of the few people in the state allowed to take in captive bred raccoons that had been possessed illegally. The raccoon in the photos is Moonshine, but she is currently at the animal sanctuary where I work as I had been quarantining multiple new intakes from an abuse case. I still have two males (Rum Tum Tugger and Electra) left in my home enclosure as we are getting them neutered and then hopefully sending them to an AZA accredited zoo.

I wanna make things very clear that underneath all the whimsy, I am a trained professional.

Those vibes are likely because I’m the original creator of Dashcon and my personality has not changed since 2012 lmao

Astarion: What's this?

Tav, hugging Astarion: Affection without leading to sex!

Astarion: Disgusting.

Astarion: ...Do it again.

[randomcontent2019]

Gale, sneaking around: Don’t say a word.

Astarion:

Astarion: Fergulous.

Gale: I said no words.

Astarion: Oh, I see. Two weeks ago playing Scrabble, it’s not a word. Now suddenly it is a word because it’s convenient for you.

i got these knockoff boots online and instead of the brand name on the tag they have the name of an apparently nonexistent martin scorsese movie??? what the fuck

[loseremo]

[syzygy-yzygy]

THE ORIGINAL? ON MY DASH

[this-too-too-sullied-flesh]

this post led to a series of events that had martin scorsese himself reacting to his alleged movie goncharov and it has less than 400k notes almost 3 years later?

Heritage post dang

[moggiepillar]

Idk girl, when I took the tree surgeon license exam, there were more than one or two questions, so I think it might be more complicated than that.

And I have a 50+ year old native oak tree that has to come down soon because the previous homeowners never dealt with a girdling branch.

[moggiepillar]

Oh she’s stupid stupid. Okay then.

A bunch of these people are "Anprim for thee, TV for me"

[pusheenthenerdcat]

what does she think "traditional indigenous building practices" are? because i learnt how to pull the bark off a cedar (to weave fabric out of) from an indigenous guy and i suspect thats a bit more disruptive to the tree than a small branch

[myfootyrthroat]

When I'm a free-spirited white girl who doesn't know that Indigenous people had whole-ass forestry and agricultural practices.

I’m going to be an Astarion apologist on main for a minute, but here’s the thing:

Despite the most common interpretation, Astarion doesn’t disapprove of all good actions and approve of all evil actions. If you try to apply that logic there are a handful of moments where his approval and disapproval makes zero sense.

Take Glutt for example. The evil thing to do would be to agree to help Glutt slaughter the Sovereign, but Astarion approves if you turn down Glutt and kill him—because the alternative forces you to take on the entire myconid colony and be put in unnecessary danger. He usually approves of you going the persuasion/deception route to get out of conflict for the same reason. Despite his gleeful “let’s go hurt someone” line, Astarion’s primary goal is to never fight unless it’s either necessary or easy.

Astarion disapproves when you make decisions that puts him (and the whole party) at risk. He hates when you take on extra dangerous tasks for strangers out of the kindness of your heart, but not because he wants those people to suffer. It’s because he has one goal: survive. Astarion has been in survival mode for 200 years and that goes into hyperdrive with the tadpole. He didn’t come all this way and have his first taste of freedom in centuries to die just because you have a hero complex.

There’s still plenty to judge him and side eye him about for that, but i do think the subtle difference in motivation makes him a much more interesting character than “i like evil and hate helping people.”
