Bigots unwelcome - I block liberally. 23. I HEREBY DECREE THAT ON THIS BLOG HALLOWEEN IS CELEBRATED FROM AUGUST 1ST TO NOVEMBER 30TH. JOINING THE WAR ON CHRISTMAS ON THE SIDE OF THE GOTHS. Owl/human bioterms. Writer of Small-Town Tales, Promise? and more (check out my writing and art over on @gracklekeyer2000) majoring in whimsy I LOVE MY WIFE *EXPLODES*
I am a grown-ass adult who enjoys adult content and may reblog it occasionally. Proceed accordingly and at your own discretion.
PT: "I am a grown-ass adult who enjoys adult content and may reblog it occasionally. Proceed accordingly and at your own discretion."
See below the cut for more information.
I'm the host of a mixed-origins system. Keep anti-endo shit off my blog and posts. If you see reblogs from my headmates, please remember that regardless of their source, they are now people, not characters, and should be treated accordingly - be respectful!
Bluesky: @cherish-all-birds.bsky.social - Hopefully Tumblr keeps running indefinitely, but I figured setting up a bluesky would be a good idea.
I love being tagged in posts, and I love seeing all the birds y'all show me. Sometimes I'm unable to reblog them for one reason or another though - this doesn't mean i appreciate it any less!
Big fan of the following:
Birds - Eye motifs in artwork - Infodumps - Stardew Valley - Reptiles - Bugs - Entomophagy (bugs but for eating!) - Fullmetal Alchemist - fun/weird music shit, especially homemade instruments, cellos, shredding on things you wouldn't expect to be able to shred on, and instruments that aren't super common in like. the kind of music I'd hear on the radio here.
Choosing a favorite bird is impossible but the aesthetics of the Tytonidae family fuck severely so I do have a separate tag for them (and also cause my theriotype is loosely based on them).
I'm a big fan of ask games, so I'll put any active ones down here. When sending an ask, please include the corresponding number so I know what to reference. Here's a list of ask games:
Plurality
Colors
MLM asks
Blorbos
Tag games/chains, on the other hand, I prefer not to do as I have dogshit memory and a lot of people on tumblr that I'd feel bad about accidentally leaving out. I'll still reblog them when tagged, just please understand that I won't be tagging anyone or continuing the chain and whatnot.
Adding this because apparently it might be necessary: i do not fucking consent to any of my posts being used for advertising or anything to do with ai. if you want to use my shit that badly you can fucking ask me and pay me, and only if i give consent.
Serious stuff below the cut.
I block liberally for a variety of reasons, all the way from bigotry to annoyances to regularly posting Harry Potter bullshit. I have a zero tolerance policy. If you put Queen FART-face's media on my dash, knowingly and willingly, I will block you.
I try to keep up on politics and how to best respect people whose experiences I'm unfamiliar with, but I definitely still have blind spots due to a variety of factors. Please point them out to me if and when you see them, and I'll do my best to verify and solve the issue.
I do my best to add alt text / IDs when I'm able to, but I don't always have the energy/wherewithal. If you reblog a post of mine adding stuff like this, I will be forever grateful.
Similarly, I do my best to add content warnings for both common triggers and things that I've been told are triggers for people close to me - that said, sometimes I either don't have the energy or I'm just straight-up so taken aback by the horrors of the original post that I can't figure out what to tag it with. If you want to add a content warning, go ahead - but if you're an ass about slur reclamation I won't hesitate to block you.
I will also do my best to add tags to indicate adult content; however, I am very likely to forget or be unsure what to add. I recognize that people below the age of 18 are fully capable of finding and enjoying the kind of content that sends conservatives and puritans into a moral panic and me telling them to stay away does nothing. As such, I'll be saying this instead.
I can't tell you what to do. Experiencing arousal/attraction/desire is perfectly reasonable, especially by the time you're legally old enough to be on tumblr. However, I will advise you to stay safe while online in any of these spaces. Don't start talking to folks in them, especially if they're adults.
I will also ask that you not talk to me on posts like that, for both your safety and mine. If you are a minor or do not specify that you're an adult and you start talking about this stuff with me, I will have to block you. Don't make me do that.
Be safe, be aware, think before you act/speak/post. If you're unsure, just don't. cool? cool.
If you are in need of financial aid:
(pt: "If you are in need of financial aid:")
As of posting this I do not have the finances to donate to people in need. I also do not have the energy to verify donation posts. At this point I'm just going to reblog shit. I won't be reblogging stuff i get sent via askbox or tagged in. Asks for donations will be deleted, and if you tag me for a donation I'll block you. I'd rather not, but if I get overwhelmed I'm not going to be able to help at all.
If you want to donate to someone whose post I've reblogged, it is up to you to verify that or take that risk yourself. If you think something is a scam and want to tell me, please provide more evidence than "people in x country don't have internet" and "the english is fucked up" or other stuff that is equally untrue and/or irrelevant. If you use racism/ignorance/zionism/etc to "prove" it's a scam, you're going to be blocked, full stop. We don't do that shit here.
Don't come at me for reblogging donation posts either. People need help right now, all over the world. We survive by working together.
My extremely controversial gaming opinion is that they should allow you to obtain meat in stardew valley and while I understand that the vast majority of people might not want to play with it I also think somewhat that the absence of any such mechanics in a farming simulator is a sign of broader disconnection and alienation from where food comes from etc
Can everyone who makes video content do a Deaf bitch a favor? Watch your shit with the captions on and the sound off, and then do another round of editing to fix things including but not limited to:
Captions cover the spot on the screen you put the information I need
The dialogue is captioned but not the song you have playing that the dialogue is responding to
You only captioned the person on the screen, not the person off screen who is also talking
No captioning of critical sound effects (alarms, bells, dogs barking, etc)
Speakers are not labelled at moments where it is not clear on the screen who is talking.
Captions cover the spot on the screen that you put the information I need!
Other d/Deaf people welcome to add.
This post brought to you by the fifth video tutorial I could not follow because the bad, auto-generated captions covered what I was trying to watch today.

on the topic of digital blackface one aspect that i was turned onto by hank green of all people is non black and especially white people using the dark skinned emojis. and the funny thing is he was like 'i think its so weird when people do that' and here comes every 'dark humour' creep in his comments telling him theyll do what they want. so weird man what are you doing.
like its functionally racefaking with plausible deniability right? and you know that. and i know that. and we both know the other knows that. but youre not touching me i guess.
