Hey! Welcome to the blog!

Boundaries:

- I will block, unfollow, etc. as I like.

- I don't reblog callout posts.

- Racism, queerphobia, ableism, intersexism, etc. will not be tolerated. Be respectful or I'll block you.

- I love to participate in ask games! Asks are welcome :)

- I probably won't be able to trigger tag stuff consistently. If you need a particular trigger tagged, filter the word or don't follow me.

Other stuff

- personal posts will be under #blue's buddies

- I try to avoid reblog bait/OCD trigger posts (like "if u don't reblog ur a bad person" posts), generative AI images/videos, and misinformation. If you see those posts on my blog, please let me know

- if you notice my typing style or language formality varies wildly in posts, that's normal. it's disability symptom stuff

4-6 Year old at the hospital was arguing with her mom whether I was a girl or a boy. I got called by my deadname as I haven't came out yet but I present rather masculine anyway and the girl was really confident in me just being a boy with a girly name.

This is trans joy!!!

tumblr users’ obsession with self-reporting (especially as a weird form of penance) needs to be studied

[deactivating-s00n-deactivated20]

you don’t need to tell the world you still like Harry Potter because it’s your comfort movie or because your dad read it to you when you were little or something like that in response to a post about the harm continued monetary support of Harry Potter causes. you don’t need to tell tumblr all the myriad of reasons you don’t like rap under a post about how rap is often misrepresented as ultra-violent or overtly sexual and misogynistic because of racism. No one on tumblr has to know anything about you. no one has to know you still read your old Harry Potter books or that the only rap artist you like is Eminem. No one is going to say “oh of course you’re the One True Good Person with a Good Reason!” when you say that rap is difficult to listen to because of your auditory processing disorder or you’re only a part of the Marauders fandom. Just keep your shit to yourself and don’t embarrass yourself under other peoples’ posts.

Realizing if I keep posting the link to rgu I should actually give a plot summary. Its about a school that mysteriously has a system where you can duel for the hand in marriage of a girl named Anthy Himemiya, who being engaged to will grant you mysterious powers. The protagonist is Utena Tenjou, a girl who stumbled onto the dueling system by complete accident and is unsure what to do about it at all. Its about misogyny and the horrors of being a child and being abused and then having to keep foing to school the next day. For the love of god watch the cws. Major flashing, incest, sexual abuse, animal death in episode ten, misogyny, homophobia, suicide. Okay now here's the link again. Seriously though, so much flashing.

Good timezone! I've been working on some Black OCs for a while and finally got their refs to look passable, so I wanted to share!

They're all part of a pantheon made up of the colors of the rainbow, so in many ways this was practice in making them obviously Black despite the fact that their actual skintones are yknow. Purple and such.

These aren't their "true" forms, just their human disguises they take to walk among mortals (Orange's god form is still under construction alas...)

Orange & blue get to be grouped together for formatting and also bc Blue has a fat crush on Orange they're convinced is unrequited (Orange thinks they've been dating for years). Purple & Blue have an antagonistic relationship, but Purple & Orange get along like PB&J

Also some bonus Orange drawings I used to practice simplifying Black hairstyles + traditionally rendering skin:

You are so good at art. I remember some of your pieces from the DTIYS as well. Very fun! Loving the practice to prove that you can still tell that Black characters are Black despite, ya know, a color palette. I thoroughly enjoy that they're gods and that at least two of em are lit asf (while Blue is like, also me at the same time lmao).

Would you feel comfortable talking to your father about your mental health if you ever needed to?

Yes, because I know I can trust him to support me

Yes, although I'm not sure how he would respond

No, but not because of him, it's because I don't feel able to talk about it

No, because even though he would try, I don't think he would understand

No, because he wouldn't show much interest or would be too busy to listen

No, because he wouldn't care at all

I'm not in contact with him any more (e.g. we fell out permanently)

I've never met him or don't know him (e.g. adopted/fostered as a baby)

He's unwell and unable to support me (e.g. dementia, mental illness, etc.)

My father passed away

like it's genuinely absurd how every post by an aro person going "Hey, it's kind of fucked up that marriage is the only way to access certain rights and privileges" gets people coming out of the woodwork to say "You idiot! Don't you know that marriage is important?! It's the only way to access certain rights and privileges!"

like . . . yeah. they do know that. that is in fact the problem.

Goddamit i hate this fucking post. I hate it because obviously if “twelve” followed the same pattern as the other teen numbers it wouldn’t be “twoteen” it would be “seconteen”. Think about it. It’s not “threeteen” it’s “thirteen” as in “third”. It’s not “fiveteen” it’s “fifteen” as in fifth. So with that in mind, you count “first, second, third, fourth, fifth,” and so on, so eleven would be “firsteen” and twelve would be “secondteen” or “seconteen”. “Firsteen, seconteen, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen….” It just drives me absolutely mad everytime i see this post that this obvious pattern was overlooked and i cant hold in my rage anymore.

anyone else notice how when "digital assistants" were just supposed to do specific tasks when you asked for them we had Alexa and Siri and Cortana, but now that they're being marketed as smart enough to take actions and make decisions on their own they've got names like Claude and Devin

@namanie @tsunderrated the point isn't "fake names -> real names," it's "feminine names -> masculine names"

hi, filipino here. just want to say that our independence day is june 12, not july 4. july 4 is when the united states government decided that they would recognize our freedom, specifically because it is your independence day and they wanted to cement their cultural hegemony over our country. and because of their influence on our country this was recognized for a time as our independence day. we still commemorate it, but i hope you can understand why we don’t want our independence day to be associated so closely with our former colonizer. it wasn’t even a work holiday for us.

june 12 is the day that we filipinos declared our own independence for ourselves, and that is what we celebrate as independence day

Some of the edgiest queers in the world who constantly talk about romanticizing cannibalism and gore is punk or whatever will turn into the literal pope when confronted with anything realistic having to do with sex like im sorry but people fuck in the park at night sometimes always have and always will and you’re going to have to go about your life without advocating for them to be skinned alive in Alcatraz

And— dare I point out the obvious— the policing of these public areas historically was and still is a huge element of police brutality and discrimination against gay people. Undercover cops frequently patrol areas that are known cruising spots and initiate with men so they can make an arrest when the guy reciprocates. They will also arrest men who are seen looking at each other over the urinals in these spots. Or for peeing while wearing a rainbow wristband.

Amtrak Police Arrests Surge at Penn Bathroom Cruising Spot

Federal law enforcement turned a person they arrested in the transit hub directly over to ICE.

If you are going to be squeamish about these facts of public life then you should really be aware of how at odds that is with your “punk” “be gay do crime” aesthetics and how your fears are directly implicated in fascist policing of our bodies
