Boundaries
This isn't specifically a blog for mature content, however since I use it as a personal space to share my interests and thoughts, it is bound to happen. I use warnings but still I suggest minors to not interact with my content. (May change on this depending on the content I post, however even now I ask people under 16 to DNI)
Basic DNI criteria - I believe it's more comfortable for both of us to just avoid eachother, I'm not here to have debates on the validity of my, my work's or anyone else's existence nor am I here to deal with borderline illegal creeps. Also in general don't be mean to people for dumb reasons, it's not a good look.
Gatekeepers, elitists and fakeclaimers of any kind are not welcome here. They are partypoopers who ruin the mood by putting others down.
My DMs and asks (+anon asks) are open so feel free to chat with me if you don't cross any of my previous boundaries :] I prefer tone tags to be used with me, especially if I don't know you!
You may ask about my queer/neurodivergent experiences/thougts respectfully.
I'm open to respectful discussions about religion and spiritualism, however do not invalidate my thoughts on that, I won't invalidate yours either. It's a intimate experience, so let's keep it interesting and respectful.
For additional info check my carrd :] You can also check out my playlists on spotify, If you want to chat with me on discord, I'm only comfortable with that after talking here for a while.
What game feels like "home" to you no matter when you come back to it?
Feed your dashboard by answering my question, blogger.
Hmmm i’d say Klonoa: Door to Phantomile. I have played it a bunch of times since i was a child and it made me cry in the end almost every time. It is simple, fun and truly moving.
the fact that we only have “herculean task” and “sisyphean task” feels so limiting. so here’s a few more tasks for your repertoire
icarian task: when you have a task you know you’re going to fail at anyways, so why not have some fun with it before it all comes crashing down
cassandrean task: when you have to deal with people you KNOW won’t listen to you, despite having accurate information, and having to watch them fumble about when you told them the solution from the start (most often witnessed in customer service)
feel free to chime in i ran out of ideas much faster than i anticipated
Promethean task: opposite of a Cassandraean task. You have the right information, and SOMEONE has to share it. But it's all in the delivery and if you're the person to identify the problem you WILL be hated forever.
Oedipal Task: (1) Attempting to avoid an unspeakably awful outcome and in doing so creating the circumstances that will bring it about.
(2) Trying to solve an problem and discovering that you are in fact the problem you are trying to solve.
I need tiktokers to understand that ao3 has been home for the freaks (affectionate) ever since the day it was created. the entire site was created because “dark and fucked up fics” were banned and removed from other platforms, so us freaks came together and created a site for other freaks — a site where nothing is censored, a site with no algorithm, no capitalism, no ads, and again, absolutely no censorship.
this has been our house for decades. you newbies don’t come into our house and tell us how to arrange our furniture. either be nice and respect our house, or leave and build your own house elsewhere.
fandom etiquette as a whole died when people who didn’t grow up on fandoms became stans during lockdown, yes, but why am i seeing people openly mocking fics on twitter. why am i seeing screenshots of fics with captions like “bro what is this 😭.” why am i seeing people mock fic writers for not knowing how sports or theater or college or any other organization operates in the real world.
“college is absolutely nothing like this” “why are we writing four people on the team scoring a hat trick in one game” “so tech work is nothing like this, hope that helps!”
if you don’t like a fic, and if you can’t suspend your belief enough to enjoy a fic that exaggerates or ignores real-world orgs, you don’t have to read it. you don’t have to screenshot it and put it on blast for twitter. you don’t have to post a link to it in the replies. the back button is literally there on your phone. it’s not giving baby’s first fandom anymore, it’s giving entitled asshole and it isn’t as cute as you think it is.
I love the small details about the Dealer: it doesn’t need to look directly into the shotgun for knowing the round or the fact it puts the handcuffs itself, I feel it’s kinda telling about the character huhu
This pics completely sfw so I'll share it here! made up a new dude who is an office worker feeling unsatisfied w his life until he completely turns it around and becomes a raver bunny boy in his mid 30s
