I think too much about Failtopia @gnomey22 - Tumblr Blog

Introduction

I feel like I should probably have a pinned post by now, so here I go.

Hi there, hello, I'm Gnomey22! Also known as GnomeYT, Gnome_AO3, or just 'Gnome'. I am autistic, non-binary, demisexual, and I use she/they(/it, though rarely) pronouns.

My major hyperfixations/special interests are Failboat Miitopia (A.K.A. Failtopia) and Ace Attorney, with some others that may crop up and/or vanish over time. I mainly post about Failtopia myself.

I don't expect to grow that much of a following on here, this is mainly just a place for me to drop various musings that don't fit anywhere else, but if you do stick around, I appreciate you!

Also, basic DNI criteria, including proship/ship discourse posters

As Aromantic Visibility Day (June 5th) approaches this year, friendly reminder from an aroace: it's Aromantic Visibility Day, not "Aroace" Visibility Day! Not all aromantics are also asexual — there are aromantics who are allosexual (aroallos for short), aromantics who don't separately label their sexual orientation at all, and aromantics whose sexual orientation doesn't fit into an ace/allo binary, as well as likely even more aros who don't fit into "aroace" for even more reasons — and all of them are equally included in Aromantic Visibility Day, because they are equally aromantic! In fact, those aros who aren't ace are disproportionately erased and in need of visibility, even more than aroaces are (which is really saying something, because aroace visibility itself is already terrible), so including them in Aromantic Visibility Day is vital, and using the correct name for the occasion instead of calling it an "aroace day" is a start.

Overall: again, speaking as an aroace myself, we aroaces will not be offended if you just call Aromantic Visibility Day the thing it is actually called! I care about sharing this upcoming day with my fellow aros, so stop excluding them, even accidentally! We aroaces celebrate this day but it is not for us exclusively!

I know this isn’t ART art, but I’ve decided to do a little something in Miitopia!! I’m currently recreating Failboat’s Big Money Island Miis (as of Episode 3) in the game!! I haven’t seen anyone else attempt to do this yet, and I’ve been having a blast doing all the makeup for the characters!! :D

sorry for the bad quality, I’d get the actual screenshots of the Miis but my Switch isn’t letting me… I’m gonna update this list more as Dan creates and develops the Miis in his Tomodachi Life series!! If anyone wants my access code, it’s X1DFL6 :]

AND BEFORE PEOPLE ASK: no, I didn’t forget Grandma!! she’s just. the one I’m least prepared to work on. cuz of all the wrinkles… Grandma Mii will come soon I promise :P

"oh you're part of a system? that must be so awful, having people speaking inside your head and taking over your body to do whatever they want!" it wasn't awful when sunny realised I wasn't drinking enough and filled up a large bottle of water so that I could see it and pour it directly into my cup without getting up. it's not awful when jasper immediately shoots down my irrational fears with calm, kind logic.

it wasn't awful when francis spent an afternoon at the aquarium instead of me and got to see all the fishes for herself. it's not awful when julian can't contain a snort of laughter in my head at something we both heard or saw. it's not awful when phoebe procrastinates on assignments to play beatsaber until she's sweaty and bored. it wasn't awful when jon sat outside on the porch late at night, talking quietly to a neighbour's cat. it's never awful when any of the others chime in about everyday tasks and decisions and ideas. it's not awful when I come back and see that my house is suddenly tidy. it's not awful when I come back and it's messier.

we're just people moving through our lives with one body between us. we have just as many small joys, irritations, helpful moments, poor choices, fits of giggles, bad times, and affectionate interactions as anybody else on earth. you can't decide we exist in a state of constant misery from our mode of existence alone. I love my crew.

crabussy

it's been nearly 8 years since I figured out that I wasn't alone in here. in those 8 years, we've all been through so much shit. we've also made so, so many good memories. I truly wouldn't want to live any other way.

I hope you're kind to the systems in your life. you have a very real power to make being part of a system less awful, just by listening and treating us like real people. and is that not wonderful? [:

pbffttttttttt

still one of my fav scenes in the game

#ace attorney #ace attorney fanart #not my art #pearl fey #godot #excellent grasp on the vibe of this interaction #despite the cold harsh climate directly behind them #and the danger in the glow of his visor #Godot uses it to provide warmth for Pearl #her expression is so soft and joyful here I adore it #especially combined with Godot stoically providing that joy

Fill in the Failtopia (S1 & S2) grid on grids.fun.

hi!! i made a cool grid thing for Failtopia seasons 1 & 2! saw this going around in other fandom spaces and might as well put my hat in the ring.

just as a note, the main casts of seasons 1 & 2 along with hank, spamtang, and petuyawn are included. if i missed your fav i think you should be able to add in your own custom images on the site.

i didn't include anyone from big money because tomodachi life is still an ongoing series rn and i'm too lazy to consistenly update this tbh.

enjoy to your hearts content!!! if there's any concerns with anything just let me know i'll see if i can update the list :)

realizing there's no logical reason for the characters to be doing the thing you want them to be doing

realizing that just means you can find an illogical reason instead

Shout out to trans women who aren’t computer scientists or musicians or avant-garde artists or whatever.

Shout-out to tgirls who work at Taco Bell. Thank u queen, society would collapse without you

Over twenty years ago my big brother got me a job at a Taco Bell in the St. Louis suburbs-West County. He warned me that it was the “gay Taco Bell”, but since I was coming from the “gay Howard Johnson’s” I wasn’t shocked. It turns out it was the black trans women Taco Bell complete with black trans women in management. And they’d worked out an arrangement with the local teen Narcotics Anonymous group so that twice a week we would shut down the drive thru and the dining room and exclusively serve 60+ teens in various stages of recovery. And many of the women I worked with were in various stages of being out or transitioning and they were from all generations from teens to over 50. One woman I worked with had a regular corporate job presenting as a man 9-5 Mon-Fri and then came to Taco Bell and worked 6pm -2am Friday and Saturday night so she could be herself surrounded by other black transwomen in those stolen weekends. And we had customers come from all over the metro area because they knew they could be themselves in the dining room. I only worked there from 1999-2001 but for young me, this was a vital, formative experience. Some of the girls came from north city all the way out to the “gay Taco Bell” on Manchester in west county because they heard it was safe to work there. Like- I know times have changed but they haven’t changed much in 20 years. I’m still convinced that for lgbt youth, finding a job at your city’s version of the “gay Taco Bell” is key to survival.

Thank u for sharing this with us

he would not fucking say that, but with disability.. he would not fucking be able bodied. sick n tired of characters walking away from multiple life changing injuries without a scratch. let’s get some natural consequences in here.

give that knife/sword fight survivor nerve damage. give the character who was shot in the gut a stoma. give that fire survivor lung damage and an oxygen cannula. give that leg injury survivor a cane. give that starvation survivor gastroparesis. give that spinal injury survivor a manual chair or powerchair.

while we’re at it, give your characters congenital disabilities too, just because. give them intellectual and development disabilities. give them acquired and postviral illnesses. dare to make somebody bedbound. for me.
