hello guys!

My name is James. Welcome to my Tumblr!

You’ll see a lot of stuff here. I mainly reblog stuff about Tomadachi Life: Living the Dream, Project Hail Mary, and transmasculinity.

The sort of stuff I post is a bit all over the place at the moment, but that’s why I’m making this post so I can establish some sort of organization.

So here’s the basics

Anons: 🌷

Tags:

#jack and jim: any posts i make about my husband

#jimmy posts: all my original posts hell yeah

#jimmy answers: all my responses to asks in my inboxes

#jimmy reblogs: i’m gonna start tagging all my reblogs with this (spoiler: there’s a lot)

#jimposting: shitpost tag for when i make crappy ass original posts that don’t deserve to be queued and treated with respect

#james is trans: for all my posts about my trans journey, or reblogs that i heavily relate to

#jimmythemaus art: for my art!

#jimadachi: for my Tomadachi Life: Living the Dream content

that’s all i can think of for now, but this list is subject to addition and revision in the future. and i’ll add, this is mainly just going to be added to new posts/posts that are real important to me, as i don’t have an access to a computer to mass tag rn.

once i finally set up my commissions and adoptables i’ll include them in this list as well, as well as any other side blogs i come up with. but that’s everything for now!

uh uh i love my husband okay bye

So, I’ve been pulled over a few times in my life. Not many, but a few. And I’ve also been in a couple of cars that got pulled over. And let me tell you, if you were actually doing something wrong, the officer doesn’t make any small talk, just straight into “I clocked you doing 70 in a 55.” The only time I’ve ever gotten the “do you know why I pulled you over?” was the time when I wasn’t doing anything wrong, and I got let go even though he insisted to the end that I was doing 87 in a 70 (white privilege at work).

“Do you know why I pulled you over?” is a trap. It means there’s a good chance the officer doesn’t actually have a good reason to ticket you, and is trying to get you to waive your 5th Amendment rights and incriminate yourself. If you make a guess, that’s a confession of guilt.

But there’s another trap, that I’ve heard of but haven’t yet experienced. It’s “do you know how fast you were going?” With that one, they’re hoping you’ll say no, because then they can name whatever speed they want – you just said you didn’t know how fast you were going, if you deny the speed they name then you’re lying to them.

[themightytej]

Oh, I’ve had that one. Go with “yes.” Don’t give them a number, just say “Yes.” Then they still have to offer a number and you can deny it without contradicting yourself. They could just ask you, at that point, but that’s suspiciously similar to saying they don’t know, and they tend to avoid doing that.

if you scroll past this just because it doesn’t affect you personally, i see you.

Also, you can always go to court and contest a ticket, and a lot of times you’ll win. Or if the cop thinks you’ll win they won’t even show up and you’ll win by default.

They like to target out of state plates because anyone who would be majorly inconvenienced by a court date two months away is a lot more likely to just pay it.

[jimmythemaus]

Alright Tumblr, i got some news.

I’m trying really hard to save up not just for college, but also for a transmasc fitness program that I’m really passionate about, so I’ve got some adoptables in the works that I’ll be releasing randomly.

I’m still really new to being involved in artists spaces so while they will be posted with estimated values, I also am trying to build my reputation and “brand”- so the prices will all be completely negotiable, as my main goal is getting my name out there.

Once this first batch is done, I’ll make a master list of all available adoptables, which will be linked to my pinned post, and they’ll all be tagged with my new #jimdoptables for sale tag if you wanna look any of them up that way.

Thank yall for your time, much appreciated!

[jimmythemaus]

update: i’ve finally made some progress on this. keep an eye out this week to see if i can actually make this happen lol

I actually do think we should discourage women from becoming housewives. Do not become financially dependent on a man. That's how a lot of women ended up dead over the years. A man gets violent suddenly and you have to choose between homelessness or potentially dying at his hand because you have an enormous gap in your resume and no degrees or certifications or anything that will help you pursue a career that will allow you to be financially independent. He owns your bank account. His name is probably the one on the car. Try and leave and he can report it stolen. Where will you go then?

Don't become a housewife.

[ladyfoxfire]

And if you do become a housewife, take steps to protect yourself. Make sure you’re legally married, for starters; stay-at-home girlfriends have very little legal recourse to claim their partner’s assets in a breakup. Make sure your name is on the house deed/rental agreement, and have your car in your name, even if your spouse is paying for it. Have your spouse transfer money every month into an account solely in your name, so you can buy yourself things without needing permission, but also so you can save up to leave if needed.

If your spouse fights you on any of this, then don’t quit your job. The tradwife to poverty pipeline is real, and so is financial abuse.

[dressedupliketheking]

also, many women/people experience controlling behaviour and domestic violence from their partner for the first time during pregnancy. don’t risk thinking “he’s just stressed, it’ll get better when the baby comes” because it won’t. neither you and your child will ever be safe with that man. get out as early and safely as you can

having anxiety is like being given permanent unwanted custody of a halter arabian. like okay buddy is it panic time again. cool you probably need more exercise and an apple and then maybe you'll calm down.

[tearlessrain]

taking my stupid walks for my stupid mental health with my stupid hypervigilant brain horse

[tearlessrain]

thoroughly enjoying the notes on this post because it's equal parts people with anxiety going "yeah that's what it's like" and people with arabians going "yeah that's what they're like"

this job market is a fucking nightmare

[pansexual-pied-piper]

"Queer space" as in "this space is created with the needs of queer people in mind and you should expect to encounter queerness here", not "you have to be queer enough to be allowed in"

"Queer space" as in "this space centers queerness", not "queers only"

"But what if people will pretend to need this accessibility option so they can be lazy! People who don't need it will use it!!" I don't actually care

I dont care if 9/10 of the people who use the wheelchair ramp arent actually in wheelchairs. As long as the 1 person who needs it has access to it.

I dont care if 9/10 people who use the automatic push button on the library door can actually push the door open themselves. As long as the 1 person who the door is too heavy for gets to use it.

I dont care if 9/10 people who buy the can tab opener, or the little guitar clamp that holds the chords for you, or the hand grip that helps you hold chop sticks, don't need any of it and just get it to "be lazy". As long as the one disabled person who needs it gets access to it.

I do not care. Oh my GOD I do not care. As long as there's a disabled person on this planet who the accessibility device will benefit, the accessibility device is necessary.

Also, if you're so worried about people being "lazy" by using accessibility devices, MORE worried than you are about disabled (visibly or not) people not having access to them, you have unchecked ableism you need to work through.

Edit: Please stop fucking talking about the capos. I am talking about the thing you clamp on the neck of the guitar that holds/changes chords with a button, not capos. Stay on topic.

correct me if i’m wrong but unlike ea, paralives was literally founded by a lifesimming enthusiast whose entire vision from the very start was designing an indie game with no dlc and free expansions??? like i thought the main reason people supported the project on patreon was because they were excited about an alternative to ts4 with stuff like open worlds and not being forced to spend more money just to access new features or features that should’ve been there in the first place?? so it just seems fucking WILD to me that modders from this community are getting an attitude when they’re called out for a) already paywalling content b) while paralives is still in early access and c) when it's kinda not in the spirit of the game or the small team of devs at the indie company behind it. like i knew there was the possibility that some of y'all were gonna switch lanes to try and make a profit but the audacity...
