i'm replanting* myself back into this space because the internet is both a heaven and hell. nice to meet you! more yapping below
firstestly, hello! i'm a southeast asian queer person that is verily against genocide (war should end) and generative ai (too many lives and water for something we should've regulated from the start)
i'm curious about the depths of media. video games as an art form, youtube video as a vehicle for stories, vtubing as a means of engaging with live storytelling!
i also feel passionately about combating "censorship", when it affects safe spaces for queer people and folks exploring kink, and does not protect the children it claims to defend.
with that: minors, you are strongly discouraged from following; you deserve a space to yourselves and i will not intrude on it.
also, i may discuss topics considered dark or "taboo" with curiosity. things i may dis/like or dis/agree with but will recognize as fiction, and as such interest does not equate to encouraging/ condoning real-life harm towards humans and other animals.
posts will be tagged accordingly.
lastly, in terms of specific interests, there's...
links checkpoint!
general nsfw tag: not safe nonsense,
kink discussion: kleppy's kink konference
(taboo discussion ought to have its own tag too)
video games (lots of indie, Flash, RPGish... genshin)
youtubers (lets players, vtubers)
art & animation (shows from my childhood, cool indies)
writing (!!!!!!! i dont do enough of it but i have ocs)
language & culture (english first language in an ASEAN country...)
MUSIC (vocaloid, indie, weird stuff)
SO! if you are an adult, and you're chill to yap with me knowing all this, by all means follow!
i'd love to find people that i can share interests with! but also i am good with yelling to the void in the wee hours of morn! howdy howdy
*replant - i was once a tumblr native, sort of! but Baby's First Blogs were cringe and i'd prefer not dig that up! so, i'm replanting my roots back over here instead.

we have dandelions EVERYWHERE, they are basically our State Weed, it is absolutely impossible that my mom has never interacted with a dandelion before, this requires further investigation
So after extensive interrogation I have an update:
my mom is in fact aware that dandelions exist. she temporarily forgot the name and there was some miscommunication.
the truth is actually weirder
she’s aware dandelions look like this
she is familiar with this flower. she knows the name of this flower. she declines to believe, however, that these are also dandelions
she does not believe these are the same plant. I tried to explain, and she thought I was either misinformed or lying. so I asked her what exactly did she think the yellow ones were called?
she answered, with complete confidence: Daffodils.
deltarune chapter 5 doodles... spoilers for my friends that havent played it
my friends haven't played it !!! so im spoiler tagging it !!!!!!!!!! people who reply underneath might see spoiler talk in the replies too sorry
but i Needed to draw the characters from the new chapter even if it's not any fancy compositioned fanart... the blorbos are part of why i am still sane.... anywho, did doodlies of the portraits under the cut. also yapping a bit about it while i can
im really happy with how ive captured a couple of them (dont tell nobody this is also practicing style studies for finishing some art pieces for friends)...
despite me scuffing ralsei aqua and blue (and ignoring asgore im Sorry...), i think they, along with every character this chapter gave me joy Except For Whatever The Other Route Was About?????? and my boy Onionsan?????
anyhow my heart is in the flower kingdom and the 7+1 of Them are in my heart forever and ever and ever... but i am particularly abnormal about flowery. dreamy sigh. unfortunately he's one of a kind. i miss him already. my favorite lines of his are HERE I COME SAN FRANDISCO and ミステリーウィンドウ (ウインドウ ウインドウ). someone put him on a dakimakura it's what he deserves. thank you
