morse codex

morse || 30s || Warframe and FFXIV, mostly. I ship what I want. 

[morsecodex]

It's Morse, of course

I hear we're making intro posts now -Morse -30s I like FFXIV, Warframe, bats, greek myths, cats, aesthetic posts, and shitposts. I left Tumblr during the nsfw exodus and I'm back because twitter might actually be on the path to total destruction. I'm old school fandom which means I don't give a fuck what you ship and expect the same courtesy. Block early, block often. I tag for organization and try to tag for triggers, if we're mutuals shoot a message if you need a specific thing tagged.

its like strippers and the economy to me

tumblr tuesday: happy immortality day (:

what does a bunch of sentient space hardware have to do with lunchables and football? fair question.

today is april 7th, 2026. it is also the day that humans stop dying, being born, and aging in jon bois' 2017 web novel, what football will look like in the future. here's some lovely art to celebrate our new-won collective immortality in that alternate universe <3

(unreality! also spoilers! also some access considerations! in case you want to read 17776! also, keep an eye out this cool @17776-fanzine!)

remember, when talking about demographics of people in the U.S.:

if you use "southerner" as shorthand for "idiot" or "bigot", if you say that people from the south "deserve" the terrible policies they're going through, if you broadly categorize all southerners as being The Villain, if you describe country music as being just ignorant racist whining, if you talk about places like Tennessee solely in terms of being the home of inbred, ignorant, backwards, hateful people -- remember you're not just talking about the guy you're envisioning, you're also talking about HER!!!!

you can make friends online and you will be rewarded with pictures of their cats

[miiilowo]

having anti role models is a beautiful thing. it's not easy to live up to someone else's behavior but it is easy to lasso yourself into behaving right when you realize you're reminding yourself of the worst person youve ever met in your entire life

[wormsdyke]

i know the standard practice in original fiction is sparing use of italics but i just can’t stand by that i really can’t it’s too good of a way to give emphasis. this word or phrase is so important i’m gonna squarsh it

[greelin]

having OC’s is crazy for real because no one else gives a fuck meanwhile you’ll be at the function thinking about them (guys who are not real) like

cw csa

”i’m pro-choice!”

”me too!”

”yes! abortion is LIFE SAVING health care! it should be a legally protected right for all women!”

”i agree, and it should be a right for everyone who can get pregnant, everyone has a right to bodily autonomy! and pregnant trans people should also have a legally protected right to have an abortion.”

”bean soup theory ugh STOP CENTERING MEN IN FEMINISM”

you are not actually pro-choice if this is your viewpoint. you don’t want abortion to be a legally protected right. you don’t give a shit about harm reduction, the wellbeing of children and their parents, saving lives OR people being able to have final say in what happens to their bodies. you only want that to be available to YOU. if trans people are not included in your politics, you’re not fucking pro-choice. and you’re not a feminist.

ignoring the perspectives of trans individuals may result in a law being passed that is worded as ”every woman has the right to abortion”. good for you, a cis woman!

very, very bad for a trans man who changed his legal gender to male a while ago, whose endocrinologist may have neglected to tell him that testosterone does not prevent pregnancy even if he no longer has a period, or he just had some insanely bad luck. and now he’s pregnant, and he does not want to be. he tries to book an appointment for an abortion but he is denied. because his legal gender is male, so he is not legally entitled to one and they latch on to that definition of the law for dear life. because hey, motherhood might get him to straighten out and get back in line!

you might think i’m reaching, but i read about a case in Sweden, a man was initially not convicted of raping a child because that little girl used the wrong word for her genitals. the court ruled that according to her testimony there was no penetration involved, and therefore it was not considered rape. because the word she, a CHILD, had used to describe her vagina wasn’t clinically correct.

definitions matter. and if they can be picked apart to continue oppressing those who are systematically weaker than you, they will.

[paperstorm]

I love you weird fanfiction. I love you unpopular kink. I love you unsanitized sex scenes. I love you fics that the mean girls make fun of on twitter. I love you monster fucking. I love you daddy kinks and foot fetishes and water sports. I love you stories about complex human emotions and bad choices with no consequences and characters hurting each other. I love you threesomes or polycules. I love you rare pairs. I love you furry art. I love you dark fantasies. I love you kink that’s so specific and self indulgent it was clearly written just for the person writing it. I love you ships that people think you shouldn’t be allowed to ship. I love you anyone who has the courage to put their art into a public space when that art is weird, or dark, or taboo, or something that will be considered unacceptable by the puritanical fandom police.

starting a collection

(links in alt)

[ottoillustrates]

these shapes.inc ads or whatever are getting on my nerves. i am not making a chatbot for my ocs. i will lay awake in bed and think about them like i'm ebeneezer scrooge being haunted by the ghosts of Characters past present and future and then i will stumble out of these visions with nothing coherent to say about them

[beaft]

bitch moment: obviously this is subjective but a lot of modern queer lit (especially YA) has this specific tone that i find really grating. i want to call it "smug" but that's not exactly it. it's more like, that sense that the author is utterly convinced of the correctness of their own worldview and expects everyone else to agree with them on principle

[werewolfetone]

It kind of fucks with me that somebody killed ötzi the iceman because ötzi himself is like whatever but the silent presence of human hands that drew back the string of the bow that shot the arrow that killed him is crazy. the idea that there were various people involved in that situation and while one of them has had his last hours painstakingly reconstructed and studied to no end, the others now only exist insofar that an arrowhead had to get into his shoulder somehow. imagine killing someone and then suddenly your entire existence is only a vague shadow implied by the fact that you killed them. much to consider

[werewolfetone]

Testing the mummified bone marrow of ötzi to figure out his ancestry whole time there’s definitely another person, maybe more than one, standing in the room with us but I can never see or speak to them because I only know them through the assurance that they were there too in the form of one single arrowhead. I hate prehistory so much it’s unreal

[angel-derangement]

I hate it too tbh

[personsonable-deactivated201908]

me holding a gun to a mushroom: tell me the name of god you fungal piece of shit

mushroom: can you feel your heart burning? can you feel the struggle within? the fear within me is beyond anything your soul can make. you cannot kill me in a way that matters

me cocking the gun, tears streaming down my face: I’M NOT FUCKING SCARED OF YOU

[miaislying]

Hey OP? What the FUCK does this mean?

[personsonable-deactivated201908]

decay exists as an extant form of life

[miaislying]

That’s a terrifying answer, have a nice day

Cats getting caught doing crimes

[flipocrite]

it takes quite a bit of social intelligence for a creature to understand:

I know what I am doing is wrong

I know there is an activity that looks similar that is not wrong

If I am quick I can plausibly pass one off as the other

[gingerhastoomanyobsessions]

these cats are displaying remarkable theory of mind skills by not only registering that the humans can perceive them but actively trying to manipulate that perception! that requires one to be aware that other individuals have complicated interior thoughts of their own, to know that those thoughts are not always based on truth, and to quickly decide on the best possible “lie” for the situation. this is why I despise animal intelligence tasks based on obedience— some of the most clever moments stem from intelligent disobedience.
