Hi! I've never really written an intro for this blog before, so... uh, here it is, I guess.
You can call me Mel. I'm 23, my pronouns are she/her, but I don't mind they or it. I'm pansexual 💖💛💙 and have been out as queer since I was 13/14. I'm a capricorn, and I'm from the UK. I like dungeons and dragons, comics, reading, and playing video games. I've been a massive nerd since I was a kid, and it's only gotten worse as I've grown lmao.
I'm a fanfic writer, artist, and meme connoisseur that has been using this website for years. If you like what you see here, feel free to stick around. I enjoy the company lmao.
My inbox is always open if you want to talk, as are my messages.
Please note that on all fics and posts on my blog, I include any necessary content warnings and put longer ones or ones marked as 18+ or contain sensitive content under a readmore, just as a courtesy.
Feel free to reblog or comment on ANY of my posts, I love the interaction.

Tags & How They're Used
These are some of my most common tags, and a brief description of how I tend to use them. I've included these tags on this post to make navigation easier in case you wanted to check them out.
#Not my post -> a post that is not mine that I like and want on my blog, so if people want to filter out the nonsense and crap they can.
#Mel art -> when I post a drawing, I'll use this tag, just to show my arty-ness. Usually oc x canon nonsense, so cringe.
#Mel simps -> me being simpy for a character. Most typically Peter Maximoff, though has been applied to characters like Rumi, The Grand Council Woman, and Pepe the King Prawn.
#Mel rants -> I'm being a bitch and going on a tangent or talking shit. Like if something stupid has happened. Most common usage was during my kidney stones saga.
#Mel rambles -> similar to the Mel rants tag, only a bit more uplifting or positive.
#Universe 311619 -> an ongoing project set in my spiderverse oc's universe, used broadly to apply to any works set in there.
#Spider by proxy -> works focusing on my spiderverse oc, specifically. Tobias Tulper, the Spider-By-Proxy.
#Mel memes -> where I post my memes, usually either independently or on a reblog.
#Mel bakes -> when I bake something and want to post it (bread, cookies, cake, etc).
#Dilfsilver -> posts about either older Peter Maximoff or a Peter Maximoff that is also a father. Typically either romantic or sexual/sensual in nature.
Yet another new study debunked the basis for the anti-trans sports bans. It was never about sports but for creating legal avenues for exclusion and abjection. This is one of the largest analyses ever conducted, involving 52 studies and 6,485 trans people. Read the study here.
I can't access the full paper, but their conclusion is right there in the abstract:
While transgender women exhibited higher lean mass than cisgender women, their physical fitness was comparable. Current evidence is mostly low certainty and has heterogenous quality but does not support theories of inherent athletic advantages for transgender women over cisgender.

For those who don't know: Ikumi Nakamura is the woman who was senior artist on Bayonetta, and designed the titular character along with Hideki Kamiya. Their greatest moment of bonding was over their insistence that Bayonetta keep her glasses on at all times.
Nakamura cannot go to horny jail. She is the warden.
