⭐️ customer reviews⭐️ “in need of therapy” “who the actual fuck are you” “i feel bad for people who know you” “stop armchair diagnosing animals” “everything that’s wrong with tumblr” “just a no-name blogger” ‘stfu’ (multiple occasions) and my favorite, ‘coward.’
i do not post, answer, or reblog donation requests unless they are for established charities or close friends. verified lists of individuals are not established charities. donation request asks are deleted and accounts are blocked. because of my very clear message here, all asks requesting donations or submitted/linked posts about donations are reported as spam. real people do not read this kind of message and send asks anyways.
if you think all trans masc people are transmisogynistic, this is not the blog for you. bye.
im sterling! he/him/his or they/them/theirs pronouns, you can use one set or the other, or switch in between, whatever floats your duck. note: the fact i use ‘masculine’ pronouns does not mean im a man. im non-binary, and only ever call myself trans masc bc im just not a girl. thank you for coming to my ted talk
yeah i did name myself after sterling archer. and all the customer reviews are things people have actually considered appropriate to say to a stranger on the internet.
screenshotting out of context posts is a massive loser move. commit to the bit and find another way to embarrass me.
if you send me an ask and the answer can be found here im replying with a star trek meme:
im 24 and don’t tag nsfw. i don’t post it often but you’ve been warned
original posts are #sterling speaks asks are #answered + #anon when applicable
i add onto posts a lot, either to fact check or just say shit. it’s usually not directed at op or the above commenter i just like talking
trigger tags are “tw blank” (ex: tw antisemitism)
you can ask for trigger tags if you hang around my blog a lot
unless you’re gonna ask for queer to be tagged a slur bc im not doing that lol
i have a side blog for some anime/genshin impact stuff to keep this one from being insufferable. you can dm for the url and genshin uid if you really want
im a type one diabetic with complications from ketoacidosis (me/cfs and pots), and hEDS. occasional wheelchair user with a service dog in training named scout. adhd, bpd, and all sorts of other shit.
my qualifications when it comes to disability diagnosis are i have some and have read things on the internet. if you ask me ‘do i have x’ i can give you some suggestions based on my personal experiences, but i’m not a doctor. grain of salt
i dont mind answering questions about disability/accessibility/mobility aids as long as questions are respectful
if i get into a fight with someone pls don’t harass them on my behalf
feel free to send me fact checks for posts, i’ll reblog with valid updates
DNF/and yes i actually check this:
im not joking about blocking bigoted people on sight. if you follow you won’t be following for long.
other: us military veterans unless you can be chill about it , transmeds, terfs, gun enthusiasts/no gun regulation supporters, anti-aquariums/animal reserves/zoos, anti self diagnosis*, anti-mental illness recovery*, eating disorder blogs/pro-eating disorders, vegans who don’t know that meat consumption isn’t the root of all evil, fanblogs for: hazbin hotel, attack on titan, 13 reasons why, south park/other ~adult animation like it~. hamilton is on thin ice.
about self-dx: there’s nothing wrong with identifying your own symptoms and determining possible reasons for those symptoms. however, you cannot say you have a diagnosis when you do not meet the diagnostic criteria. idc if you think you have some weird unique form of a condition-if you do not meet the criteria and have not been diagnosed after extensive work with a medical professional, do not represent yourself as an example of that condition. ex: you say you have a potentially disabling mental condition like bpd, but then have few or none of the nine diagnostic criteria.
about mental illness recovery: it is completely up to an individual to decide what this means for them. however, i do believe it’s in someone’s best interest to at least find some kind of management plan that works for them, even if that doesn’t include classical psychiatry. conditions like bpd and bipolar can be life ruining if you don’t actively try and work with it, i understand this isn’t possible for everyone but start with a dbt worksheet or smth. take care <3
i get why people don't believe in marriage as a social construct but legally it is the best and easiest way to say "this is who i trust to take care of me when i can't take care of myself" and i'm so glad gay people fought for that right bc when shit gets scary at least i know im in good hands
so. i just learned that my entirely me-written resume flags as being AI-written by automated HR systems for a few writing quirks and the fact that i followed all the rules of good resume writing, which is apparently a telltale sign of AI use in this fucking hellworld. i've been desperately applying to jobs that i am massively overqualified for for months with no response, not even an interview, and now i find out that at least part of the reason is because some fucking moron decided that following the rules every career advisor has given me for a decade means i cheated and should be disqualified. the ai bubble cannot pop soon enough. what the actual fuck.
"frequent use of action-result sentences. bullet points all start with action verbs. no career gaps." girl what the fuck are you talking about. that's just resume writing advice being followed. i just did what i was told. it's a fucking resume. you're supposed to do all that stuff. what the fuck do you mean it looks ai generated and wouldn't pass basic detection systems?????????? for following the resume writing rules????????????
watching star trek pisses me off because of course spock is my favorite character. of course i think the alien who can mind meld and nerve pinch is fucking awesome. of course i think the guy with a complex origin story and emotional restraint is fascinating and maybe a little bit hot. of course the dude with great line delivery and daddy issues and eye shadow is my favorite crew member. the enterprise hired the coolest first officer ever and im falling for the bait
regardless of you being queer or not, did your parents ever gave you the "if you turn out to be gay it would be fine" talk, before you ever had the chance to say anything on your own about that?

Remaining time: 5 days 3 hours
because it happened to me and im wondering if this was a product of the ongoing cultural change around gay issues. before i ever had the chance to say to my parents "i am this" my mom was already sitting me aside to tell me "if there is anything you want to tell me, i want you to know ill accept you no matter what"
