My name is Crow and this is my first time actually getting a Tumblr after YEARS of wanting one. I've decided to try harder in the "to be cringe is to be free" department by putting my thoughts here.
Things I like:
Sonic the Hedgehog (fan since the age of 5)
Bayonetta
Hazbin/Helluva
Visual Novels!!! (I'm slowly coming around to them after years of not really wanting to play them)
Tropes/Dynamics/Symbolism/Abstract concepts in media
Horror games, art, movies ⚠️(Including "nasty/icky" stuff.)⚠️
Deep-dive critiques on the stuff I love/dislike
Video Game history -> Consoles, Controllers, Graphics, etc.
Please be patient with me going forward, I'm learning Tumblr as an outsider of almost 9 years.
If there's sexual abuse subtext no there isn't, if there's allusion to sexual abuse you're ruining it for everyone else by talking about it, if there's a metaphor for sexual abuse you're reading too far into it and it's actually a metaphor for anything more palatable, and if there's on-screen sexual abuse? Well that's exploitative torture porn, of course.
Start disappointing people and not backing out of it when they are upset, reject feeling ashamed of everything including of yourself, start saying No to things you do not want to do not just things you're scared of, do more of those things you're scared of but wish you could do, make your own plans and execute them, decide to do or not do something without basing it on who will Dislike it.
Free Will takes practice, and the chance of making someone somewhere Slightly or even Very Disappointed In You. But you're an adult and you can't be made to stand in a corner anymore.
would you look at that, fandom.com has started adding completely content-blocking popups to their page that totally prevent you from using the site unless you turn ad block off.
it sure would be a shame if people went to their URL bar and typed "anti" in front of "fandom.com" in order to go to the antifandom.com mirror of the page they were trying to reach, which shows all the same content but without any ads,
There is something vaguely insulting about being asked to design something for someone (for FREE)...and the person asking you has already put an ai generated pictured on the first draft, and wants it included everywhere.
To those who suffer with an AI chat bot addiction, just know that you are not alone in this. These chat bots are extremely predatory, and thrive on taking advantage of those who are emotionally vulnerable. The world, especially now, can seem very isolating and cruel. But just know that there are so many people who care about you, and so many people that you can meet and form bonds with.
And those who have relapsed back into their addiction, or struggle to leave it, you’re not lesser because you cannot easily leave your addiction just yet. It’s an addiction for a reason. It’s not wrong to need more time in escaping such a situation. Acknowledging your addiction and wanting to improve is the first positive step forward.
This post is mainly focused on those with a chat bot addiction. But if you suffer from an addiction of any form, this also applies to you. You all have the ability to improve, even if it takes a long time.
This is coming from someone who has a chatbot addiction, and has relapsed a few times due to its predatory nature.
Being unemployed (and actively looking for a job) while helping my younger brother fill out a job application, AND write his first resume fresh out of high school is wild.
Blind leading the blind type shit! It's like, we're laughing, I'm giving him advice, walking him through how to identify hard vs soft skills since he has no job experience... All while my ass has been plumb unemployed for a hot minute.
My brother is frustrated and it's so validating because all the older people in our family are very boomer-coded/already retired, "No one wants to work"/"Your generation this & that..." and we're in here struggling together. Every time the job application asked him a stupid question, I have to hit him with a "🙂↕️" because I know what that shit is like 💔.
actually the way society hates both perverts and asexuals is kinda funny. Real "Anyone who thinks about sex more than I do is a porn-addicted degenerate and anyone who thinks about sex less than I do is a loser weirdo or a puritan" energy
Regardless of how people feel about Morgan Reacts or how Angel Dust is executed in S1, I will always find it kind of messed up that the internet came together to make fun of someone having a visceral reaction (i.e, crying) to a fictional character getting slapped around on-screen by their abuser.
Sometimes, I get caught up in my own mind about my ideas because I REFUSE to tell anyone about them.
Like, "I'd rather die than tell you"- type shit.
And it's frustrating because I loooove attention and like it when people add their own input because I feel less alone. Even then, I still can't bring myself to talk about it.......
Which is why I'm trying the "3, 2, 1" method and just blurting out what I want to say. I probably won't remember this post in 2 hours, but that's the plan because I prescheduled this message. lmaoooo. Get fucked, procrastination.
⚠️Brief Discussion of Soft Vore Under the Cut⚠️
I'm thinking about making a self-indulgent Alastor x Reader thingy. 🤔 (For my non-Hazbin moots who happened to stumble upon this, I apologize in advance 🤗)
Where the reader is a parasite in Alastor's mouth.
And it's in first person.
I haven't the foggiest of how it'll end, if it'll be a one-shot, I'm just saying it out loud. Sometimes, it feels good to just say stuff even if it hasn't come to fruition.
I can't wait to do research on my chosen parasite and give the reader a personality around that!!!
I CAN'T WAIT to see how long I can avoid using Y/N.
I can't wait to write body horror for the first time since...I want to say 10 years, give or take?
AND I'M GOING TO POST IT EVEN IF THAT SHIT GETS 1½ LIKES....eventually, it most likely won't be in the "near" future, per se, but trust, I will be researching and replaying non-existent scenes in my head until then.
