To want to go home, but home is nowhere

They/them - 30s Hi, I'm a queer person who has zero themes to what they post on here, just mostly things that catch my attention and whatever I'm fixated on at the current moment. That said, this blog is not spoiler free, so scroll with care. I'm on mobile, so I try and tag, but I mostly fast-reblog. Icon drawn by me (self portrait in a sense.)

So, making a new pinned post since I've taken down my gofundme, as it hasn't gained anything in over a year now.

But hi, I'm a queer artist and occasional writer, who happens to be disabled. Overall I tend to just quick/fast reblog off of mobile, and thus not use the tags other than to add my 2 cents worth of thoughts.

I do have a FFXIV sideblog that I occasionally put screenshots on of my Warrior of Light, Akira Gin, as well as very occasionally continue my writing of her storyline. I also put links to the playlists I made of my cutscene recordings from A Realm Reborn to Shadowbringers prior to the changes made to the story. I still plan to eventually add the post-Shadowbringer cutscenes, along with Endwalker and it's postgame sections, just life has waylaid me with the recordings of it (mostly DDoS issues as of late.)

All that said, I also have a Ko-Fi. Which if anyone feels generous, they can donate to which will help ease some of the financial stress I have.

I think ao3 is literally the only site where no censorship means no censorship. you can post the most vile things on there — things that will get taken down on any other platforms — and ao3 will protect you, your works, and your rights to create whatever you want, however you want.

and no, this isn’t me saying “write that messed up, disgusting thing” because while, yes, write it if it’s what you want (I myself enjoy writing dark fics, something I believe would be considered “vile” to a lot of people), this is me saying in a world of censorship and capitalism, ao3 really is a treasure.

everybody say thank you ao3

Sorry to keep banging on about this! I just have a few days left to meet the funding goal!

The Bluminarmour Project

Blumineck is trying to fun a video series doing fun and serious historical and fantasy testing in fitted plate armour.

[blumineck]

Thank you all so so much, you wonderful, mad bunch! I woke up this morning to find that the project had met its funding goal, and despite inching closer over the last few weeks, I think there was still a part of me that didn't believe that this would actually happen.

Massive thanks to all of you for contributing, sharing etc. I have a lot of people to contact and confirm things with, and will keep you all updated with how things are progressing.

I can't wait to get testing, and will begin weighted training etc. asap so that I can hit the ground running once the armour is complete!

If you specifically want any of the funding tier rewards then you’re welcome to contribute, as additional funds will go towards production costs, but as of now we have raised enough to cover the cost of the armour, maille, and filming, so the project can begin as soon as the kickstarter concludes on Friday!

Writing characters be like "Ok what neurodivergence do i give to this one"

Writing characters be like "Ok what aspect of my own neurodivergence did I already give this one without realising?"

Playing DnD be like "Oh I just realized that's the 5th character I write who's obsessed with food, is overworked and has a terrible relationship with their father but surely this means nothing about myself"

Okay so many years ago when my mother read the first rough draft of my novel Echo of the Larkspur she congratulated me on writing the most realistic autistic character she's ever read before

And I just remember sitting there going that can't be right, that character just thinks the same way I do and *I'm* not autistic, she's totally in the wrong about that

Fellas, I bet you cannot guess what I was diagnosed with shortly afterwards, you simply can't

[earhartsease]

be us writing a novel about someone who finally discovers they're able to be two people, one a boy and one a girl, a decade before coming out as trans, and two decades before realising we were plural and it was way more nuanced than "a boy and a girl" so we're still trying to write it

if you comment some demanding shit like this on fanfic writers’ works, you don’t deserve the privilege of getting to read fanfiction for free

[killergirlfuria]

Fun fact! Demanding updates is also likely to make authors delay them, either out of spite, or because you bring their mood too low to effectively write!

For me it causes both <3

My mom likes to tell me about how when I was a little kid riding public transport with her I'd always smile and giggle and chat with weird old ladies who smelled like cat pee and homeless folks and strangers dressed in bizarre outfits but any time a tidy and respectable businessman in a suit and tie waved at me I'd immediately clam up, and she takes a great deal of pride in my supposed inherentability to clock personalities but the truth is I do vaguely remember those bus rides, and it was never about the clothes or the hair or the smell, but more because everyone "strange" asked interesting questions and listened to what I had to say and seemed to think about what I said while the neat and tidy and rigid folks only ever acted like they were going through the motions, which was boring as hell and also pretty annoying

Man i feel really bad for the guy who wrote this article because the article actually manages to raise a very very very good point but the way the headline is phrased completely omits 95% of what they were trying to say

And because i know people won’t even bother to click and check the article itself i’m gonna screencap it, it’s fairly short, give it a read:

tl;dr: the article’s point isn’t “corporate satire is not funny anymore as in “we should stop making fun of corporations””, the article’s point is “corporate satire is not funny as in “it’s extremely depressing to live in a capitalistic hellhole and corporate satire aims more to poke fun at that without actually making you think about our world or giving you hope for a better future, and therefore it’s just lost its bite””

[aurelia-which-means-sunrise]

Thanks for the screencap, I did try to read the article but the ads on that site were insane.
