Wait what happened to Thomas Sanders???

Basically, Thomas Sanders (who, btw, is gay) used to be basically the celebrated Unproblematic Fav Uwu of Tumblr and Vine. Everyone loved him, everyone praised him for being inclusive and positive, making fun and unique vines that were appropriate and enjoyable for any age group.

Then one day he got an aphobic ask (I honestly don’t remember what this was even in response to, I think it was some really innocent one-off “I hope asexuals have a good day” type of post or something like that, idek), to which he wrote a long and sincere response that basically summed up to “Hey, that’s not a nice attitude to have, please take a moment to think about how other people must feel and why it’s so important to you to shut them down”

Within literal hours (and this is something I witnessed myself, I was online when it all went down), a smear campaign against him had started. Suddenly even people who had previously been huge fans of him were shit-talking him left and right, declaring him cringey, and grasping at straws to make “callout posts” for him. One popular argument I remember hearing was- And I shit you not, I am not making this up- He was a “pedophile” because he made videos for a family demographic and has a young-looking face, but was 29 or whatever and therefore “pretending to be a kid” or whatever the fuck. He even, gasp, made vines about high school, despite not being a high schooler himself! (Dan Green voice) That’s called “acting”, children!

His popularity never really recovered, and these days he’s mostly considered “cringey” by a large portion of the internet due to the main demographic most of his fans fall into, because you know it’s hip and cool to shame young girls and queer kids for the things that bring them joy.

So yeah, TL;DR used to be pretty well liked by the majority of Tumblr with nobody really having anything bad to say about him, expressed support for aspecs one day, immediately fell victim to exclusionist harrassment and is now at best considered just a cringey teenage girl thing.

[mintedwitcher]

Also part of the “pedophile” smear campaign included:

1. He has tags for not quite safe for work selfies on his blog (#nsfw and #tsbutt) (not nudes or even lewds, just pictures including his clothed butt.)

2. He accepts nsfw fanart from fans, but ONLY if the artist is 18+

3. There was ONE time where an underage artist submitted a nsfw art piece and Thomas posted it, because said artist removed their age from their bio, so Thomas had no idea it was made by a minor. He deleted the post as soon as this information came to light.

But exclusionists took all of this, mashed it with their “oh but he’s so childish, he acts like a kid even though he’s nearly 30, he must be hiding something!” And ran so far with it that Thomas Sanders severely suffered for it. Even his fans got shit for liking him. A lot abandoned him out of fear that a similar campaign would start against them.

So yeah. Fuck exclusionists, honestly.

[freak-priest]

He got smeared for videos he made With high schoolers as well, high schoolers from a drama club from his old high school, whom he was asked back to help out by his own teachers. Which is commonplace, and not sketchy in the slightest. He made wholesome, age-appropriate content and STILL got “cancelled” because exclusionists can’t handle it when good queer people who don’t share their dumb views are successful.

[inclusionist-mantha]

Reblogging again for the latest addition!

[mrs-faggot]

This is what I mean when I say people fucking hate asexuals. You guys ruined a guy’s life because he wasn’t aphobic, that’s fucking pathetic.

I FINALLY GOT PHANTOM THIEF KANATA I’M SCREECHING THANK U FREE SCOUTING TICKETS

[ask-bot]

What’s the most ridiculous thing you’ve bullshitted someone into believing?

[kurumawer]

When me and my siblings were much younger my dad owned a Volvo car with a computerized voice. It was a very deep voice that would give you warnings about the car’s status. “The boot (trunk) is not shut” being one I remember. Very creepy now I look back at it.

Me, my older brother and our dad would joke that the voice came from “a little man” inside the car. My younger sister was at an age where you could tell her anything and she would take it as gospel. She actually believed there was a tiny person with an extraordinarily deep voice living in the car. We kept it going for a long time until one day someone crashed into the vehicle and it ended up in the scrapyard. As she cried for the safety of the little man we had to tell her the truth. She was mad at us for weeks.

[canyoufeel-my-heart]

I convinced my kids that my car’s triangular, red, hazard button was a ‘self destruct’ button. This was initially to keep them from hitting it since it is a really prominently placed, large, red button. This worked out great until I quickly pulled the car over the other day to get a dog off the road. Threw on my hazards and jumped out of the car after the dog. I looked back and both kids are hitting the ditch.

[tikalgirl]

Dealing with that kind of betrayal must have been hard for them. “Dad hit the self-destruct and ran away!!!”

[coltrer]

Dad killed a dog, hit self-destruct on the car to remove all evidence and witnesses and ran away.

SHIT

hay Greer in the most polite way possible what the fuck is the Bad Man and why do you own it

step 1) found him in a local auction house

step 2) hired someone off task rabbit to bring him home (took two tries, as the first person cancelled upon receiving photos)

Maybe Grora for the character ask thing? :D

favorite thing about them: the casual attitude she keeps throughout most of the game even in terrible situations

least favorite thing about them: let go of the eye grudge, alela, you're just being petty

favorite line: not a line, but this exchange of dialogue with Yosafire:

"Eh, um... what indeed? Hmm... things that pervert the natural order!"

"Like perverts?"

"Yes, maybe perverts."

brOTP: Yosafire & Grora

OTP: Ater x Grora (enemies to lovers 500k slowburn, go)

nOTP: n/a

random headcanon: Etihw could easily heal her injury underneath her eyepatch, but Grora actually cares less about her lost eye as opposed to feeling the shame of her shattered pride when she was overpowered and beaten by Ater during the war when the gory incident had gone down. Obviously she would never admit this and mostly just uses the loss of the eye as an excuse around it.

unpopular opinion: as she currently is in canon, i find her character kind of lackluster compared to some other characters in TGG (though i hope that will change), but i like her still because fandom usually makes her more interesting and less one-dimensional anyway.

song i associate with them: fool (cat power)

why can't we see our fortunancy living as legends have lived bane and dismannered we coax all the time knowing that nothing is left when we die come along Fool, a direct hit to the sense you're disconnected it's not that it's bad, it's not that it's death it's just that it's on the tip of your tongue and you're so silent

favorite picture of them:

(she looks so pretty with that drowsy expression...)

[kandyrezi]

Character thing: Moge-ko!

favorite thing about them: i love, love her introduction scene with yonaka & defect mogeko; how she shifts from a cute moe girl with big eyes and a blush on her cheeks - to a raging psychopath with bared teeth and red, slanted eyes, screaming about killing.

least favorite thing about them: her hair defies gravity whenever i've drawn her in the past. that's what i call pain pain pain!

favorite line: "I like prosciutto... but I also like marshmallows and macarons! And I looove naps!"

brOTP: Pancetta & Moge-ko

OTP: Yonaka/Lord Prosciutto x Moge-ko

nOTP: none, i could ship her with anyone

random headcanon: Moge-ko is secretly a fan of Barbie and has bloody tea parties with them, like, uses the blood of mogekos as the tea and cuts the dolls’ heads and screws with their plastic limbs. This is because she has no memories of having a childhood and wants to try and replicate it. Nobody knows this. Not even the mogekos themselves.

unpopular opinion: objectively one of the better villains in dsp-verse who actually makes you feel a sense of dread.

song i associate with them: let's kill tonight (panic! at the disco)

may your feet serve you well and the rest be sent to Hell where they always have belonged old hearts brew colder songs fate will play us out with a song of pure romance so stomp your feet and clap your hands let's kill tonight! kill tonight! show them all you're not the ordinary type

favorite picture of them:

(moge-ko bitching to pancetta about how she's no longer the top in her relationship with lord prosciutto. true pals.)

[kandyrezi]

About the character thing: Samekichi?

favorite thing about them: that he still cares about his older brother to some extend, shown in the manga when he asks him to come back home (using his real name - shiranami!)

least favorite thing about them: in the bonus room section it's shown the only thing he likes is wadanohara and hobby section is just "n/a" BOY branch out your interests a little and get an actual hobby!!!!! jfc

favorite line: "...What point is this sea if you're not in it?" (i love normal end 2 for all the wrong reasons)

brOTP: Wadanohara & Samekichi (i too like them as a romantic pair, but i'm also a fan of aromantic wadda)

OTP: Idate x Samekichi

nOTP: fukami

random headcanon: Samekichi has nightmares about his time spent in The Sea of Death. He also despises the scars scattered across his body.

unpopular opinion: i enjoy the scenes that samekichi has with sal more than most of the ones he has with wadanohara.

song i associate with them: anti-gravity (starset)

the more I fight, the more I work the more I dig into the dirt to be fed up, to be let down to somehow turn it all around but then fate knocks me to my knees and sets new heights beyond my reach below the earth, below concrete the whole world shackled to my feet

favorite picture of them:

(samekichi absolutely deserves to be put in ridiculous outfits and costumes & i love this one just as much as that maidkichi pic.)

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

mummies? genus of the zombie family. the two are not taxonomically exclusive groups, educate yourself

[kaiyeti]

Also skeletons by that logic.

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

A lot of people make this mistake actually! ‘Skeleton’ can refer to any individual member of the family Zombie that has shed its fleshy exoskeleton. It’s just an unlife cycle stage, but because of its distinct appearance we refer to it by a separate common name (similar to how a ‘black panther’ is just a colour variant of leopards and jaguars, not a separate species).

[mortimermcmirestinks]

Okay, so I think this is a point of confusion.

The term “zombie” is both a technical term, referring to a family, and a common name, referring to a genus.

The family Zombie is a broad, overarching group that includes the genus that many people call zombie (Ghoulus, not to be confused with Ghouli, the unrelated genus of the Ghala family which also includes bogeymen and some ghosts*) as well as the Mummy genus (Pyrima), the spore-zombie genus (Fungan) and a few others.

The colloquial term “Zombie” is the common term for the genus Ghoulus, which is in the family Zombie and includes Ghoulus romero (the walking zombie), Ghoulus snydera (the running zombie), and Ghoulus smithi (the vampiric zombie, also called the legendary zombie).

Interestingly, there are several things called “zombies” that are neither Ghoulus nor Zombie, including the dancing zombie (Jacksoni thrillera), which is more closely related to (although not currently actually in the same family as) clowns.

*Note: the ghosts in the Ghala family are not true ghosts. True ghosts are in the order Spectere, which is entirely unrelated to Ghouli, Ghoulus, Pyrima, and Fungan. Ghala “ghosts” are given the common name ghost because of their superficial similarity to true ghosts.

Important note: sometimes you’ll see people claiming that zombies are domesticated! They are not! Some zombies can be tamed (like Ghoulus romero), but zombies are wild animals and might hurt you if you approach them! Leave them alone and don’t feed them!

[s0lar-nexus]

are there any domestic ghosts?

[mortimermcmirestinks]

this is a great question! here’s the answer:

the closest to a domesticated ghost we have is the house ghost, Phantome domus (sometimes classified as a distinct subspecies Phantome domus domesticus).

P. domus is interesting because it’s like housecats – they are technically domesticated (scans have shown that the fight-or-flight response, like in domesticated animals, is weaker in P. domus than in related species like P. majestica, the manor ghost, or P. more, the cemetary ghost), but evidence suggests that it’s a naturalistic co-evolution rather than an intentional domestication process like with sheep or dogs.

If a house ghost takes up residence in your home, they are completely safe unless treated in an inhumane way. There is a stereotype of house ghosts that they are dangerous or volatile, but this is usually due to confusion with other species, especially the common poltergeist (Sellaruptor vulgaris) or vengeance spirit (Phantome odium).

Ghostbusters remake but they’re biologists running a catch and release program

I love scientifically explained fantasy. It is so much fun exploring the fantasy world in terms of biological phenomena.

GAUD THIS HAS LONG BEEN COMMON KNOLEDGE

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

I don’t know what the fuck counts as common knowledge!!! for years I thought everyone knew that lobsters have teeth in their stomachs & blood can be used as an egg substitute. my perspective is slightly skewy!

[perniciousprophet]

How much blood contitutes one egg?

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

¼ cup of blood can be substituted for one medium sized egg

4 the character thing <3

song i associate with them: Chlomaki

favorite thing about them: her entire character progression honestly? how she went from being a meek and obedient servant for god to being a carefree and letting her joviality shine without needing to hide any parts of herself, and how much she enjoys the freedom and being who she actually wants to be. i just have a lot of feels about her haha...

least favorite thing about them: pls be nicer to the sea creatures!

favorite line: "Hey, so, uh, why's there a moon underwater?" (to wadanohara) it's not even a moon so it's kinda funny

brOTP: Chlomaki & her familiars as one big fam <3

OTP: Lobco x Chlomaki 5ever💕💖💗 ...even if i never talk about them anymore :') hah mayhaps in the future again...

nOTP: i only really ship her, out of her familiars, with lobco - so i guess i prefer her having a platonic/familial bond with them

random headcanon: Chlomaki can turn fruits poisonous (but poison as a whole is one of her specialties when it comes to magic).

unpopular opinion: I do not think Chlomaki is intentionally "cruel" or "a bitch" like i've seen people describe her as. her casual slapstick and slightly less than pleasant attitude most likely stem from her time in land of clouds where she was literally tortured/abused and never allowed to ask questions/act out against the norm. it's a little more nuanced but that's basically the short version of how I feel about it

song i associate with them: stupid intruders (the vincent black shadow)

stupid intruders came and ruined an empty space I don't know why I bother fronting a nice face, it's fake I took a test and found out things that I knew before it's all genetic that I find you a huge bore

favorite picture of them:

(ponytail chlo!! 💕💕)

[onceonafullmoon-deactivated2022]

for da character ask: Chisaki!

*gasp* ITS THE BELOVED MUTUAL!!

Alright then let’s go *clears throat*

1.) My favorite thing about Chlomaki is her chill personality, it’s just amusing when in WATGBS everyone is panicking and dying and she’s like: “huh, weird. Anyways-“ It’s not that she doesn’t care per day, it’s just that she knows when she should step in or not.

2.) That being said her carefree attitude can be a little disconcerting. Lobco goes missing in a dangerous world filled with psychotic demons and she’s like: “eh-“ Like come on girl that’s your friend!! Do something!! Please!

3.) I can’t remember the exact quote but it’s something like. “They remind me of the past.” when she talks about rainbows. It’s something I imagine she says with a solemn tone, one that Wadda can’t decipher.

4.) brOTP has to be her and Wadanohara. It’s something about Wadda that just brings out the uwu in (some) people. She’s noticeably softer around Wadda and even does her best to give her advice. It’s rare to see this caring side of Chlomaki but I enjoy it!

5.) OTP is her and Fungas, I don’t know too much about them but they seem like a great pair. Fungas isn’t afraid to tell her stuff straight up or to show his affection to her and I think that’s someone Chlomaki needs. Someone who can handle teasing and isn’t afraid to tease back is a must.

6.) nOTP is Chlomaki and Fumus. This is explanatory. Just. I hate him. I hate him so much.

7.) Random HC! Chlomaki hates it when people talk down to her, reminds her of her time with a certain asshole. When the Great Witch does so as well it pisses her off. She’s not a damn child so don’t treat her like one!

8.) Unpopular opinion- Chlomaki does care a lot more than she lets on. She’s portrayed as a mean goth kitty girl, but she genuinely does care about the people in her life. A tsundere if you will, but definitely a less exaggerated one.

9.) A song that reminds me of her is BABE by Hyuna, outwardly a very pop and catchy song but really disturbing and depressing when you look at the lyrics.

10.) Fave pic is this one! Just look at the chaos lol
