Me, ass deep in your blog: I bet you're wondering how I got here...

(It's because I archive and recirculate a lot of older posts. Those are going in my queue and will be spit out by my whims. Thank you for your service.)

If you want to repay the favor, my tagging system is...

Alice and Bob- (names may vary) Means the post in question has these two characters in it. The more plot relevant character is listed first. Sometimes shippy, sometimes platonic. Best way to search the archives.

Meta- Insights about my fandoms, or fandom as a whole. Not separated.

Femslash- good ol f/f tag

Humor- Funny shit for a rainy day!

Useful shit- guides and the like!

Sad Tag- for when you're in need of a good cry

Storytime- Cool tumblr stories

On stories- posts about reading and writing

I post ~50 times a day. Follow with caution.

(optional) about me under the cut

Name is Cat or Kat.

I'm a dyke, and use He/She.

Lover of Femslash, Rarepairs, and Meta

Incomplete list of my favorite ships: Junkan, Ishimondo, Zolu, Vrisrezi, Jayvik, Sanlu, Narumayo, Kaemugi, and Dirkjake.

But I'm such a multishipper I'd be down to talk about pretty much anything.

Hater in the sense that I complain about the quality of canon material, not in the sense that I bully you over what you ship.

Trying to become more active on my dreamwidth, catboycatgirl!

"All drugs are drugs" = a surprisingly radical position that will upset people right across the political spectrum

This means:

If you draw a hard line between "drug" and "medicine" based on current legality where you live (or any other criteria) you've gone wrong somewhere,

If you think legality and/or prescription status tells you all you need about a substance's capacity to do massive harm to someone's body, mind or well-being you've gone wrong somewhere,

If you think legality and/or prescription status tells you all you need about a substance's capacity to contribute meaningfully to someone's healing, function or happiness you've gone wrong somewhere,

If you think certain substances should be excluded from informed consent (either withheld or forcibly administered) you've gone wrong somewhere.

I hope I'm online when it happens. I want to see a sudden flood of crab rave memes right after refreshing my dash, and in the middle of it all, the Castiel news meme. That's how I want to learn of it; not through anything solemn or serious, but via overwhelming silly celebration.

Perhaps this is an obnoxious take on my part, but video games should, above all things, prioritize the ability of being paused. At any point. Regardless of whether it's during a cutscene, a special animation, or a time-based puzzle. You never know when you're gonna get a phone call, or someone will need you in another room, or you get a sudden urge to go to the bathroom, or you hear your cat licking plastic, or whatever. Other entertainment mediums like books, movies, and music can be paused whenever you want. Why do some games not give you the same luxury??

Because I’m curious: reblog this and put in the tags 1) what kind of female characters you tend to find yourself drawn to and 2) if you have any thoughts about the portrayals of these sorts of characters in fiction*

*could mean anything: thoughts on what you think about the way they’re typically portrayed, thoughts on the relative abundance or scarcity of those types of characters in fiction, any character that you felt was handled particularly well or poorly. I just wanna know!

Edit: the title for this comic is “Puzzle Rat” this one’s a few days late due to having a lot of doctors appointments sorry it’s  just 9 pages, and about some rats… it’s more symbolic than anything really

"every pregnancy plotline ever" Oh my god thank you for saying this. I feel the same (also about nearly all in published fiction), but as much as fandom loves to claim they're feminist and not forcing people into old roles, they sure get incredibly aggressive the moment someone doesn't want to be a mother or even just is uncomfortable with that trope

With the fandoms I'm in, if a canon-adjacent fic doesn't have the character meaningfully consider if they can juggle a kid in addition to all the plot shit going on, (which they can't really drop) they're a bad parent.

And yeah, I get the author just wants to write a plot and isn't always the most concerned about realism, but if you're realistic everywhere else, this seriously hurts my suspension of disbelief + my opinions on your versions of these characters.

Amane Misa from Death Note🍎💀

[minloafie]

Drew Light Yagami for a friend!

[catgirl-catboy]

My controversial death note opinion is that Light with memory loss should have overthought "how do I come across as not being Kira" more, and thus the dynamic should have been relatively unchanged.

I don't care that he's "innocent", he's acting too innocent.

no matter how hard i try, nothing i write will ever be as fucked up as the stuff somebody who thinks they're creating a Wholesome AU with unexamined beliefs will make.

[jerboaoa]

couldn't leave this in the tags

[girl-blorbo-polls]

If you were handcuffed to your girl blorbo with magical unbreakable handcuffs for 24h, would you be okay with this?

I trust her, I’ll be fine

I trust her, but it’ll be a stressful 24h

It depends on what kind of day we’re having

This is gonna suck…

Heartbreaking: previously attractive person revealed to own an outdoor cat.

I only hate certain types of fic the same way I hate mosquitos and ticks. Like get these nasty little buggers away from me but also I respect their place in the ecosystem.

[sandersstudies]

Me, spraying bug spray: blocked.

[sandersstudies]

Listen and sometimes? To enjoy running through a beautiful field of grass and flowers (ao3) you have to tolerate the fact that bugs (fics you don’t like) are there and maybe you will even encounter one, but you can use bugspray (filtered tags) to reduce the likelihood of that. Because the alternative is not getting to experience the beautiful field of grass and flowers.

[sandersstudies]

And some of my mutuals happen to be entomologists. Which is also cool.

[dvandom]

And sometimes you discover your bug spray has expired (some new horror that's become popular and you hadn't put in filters yet).

[catgirl-catboy]

"Sign in to prove you're not a bot" bitch, it's none of your business. With the way the economy is going, I might be.
