I've never really enjoyed Mega64's style of humor. They give off too much of an "in your face, invade your privacy" vibe and that has never sit well with me.
Can all the tumblr homosexuals agree to stop buying chick fil a. It's so depressing that across the board lgbt people and supporters are indifferent to chick fil a and feel fine buying it. Can we at least stigmatize it here
Fuck Chick-fil-A. That homophobic chicken isn't even that good, y'all are literally simping over chicken that tastes like it was made at a White cookout
The founder is still, like, actively spending his money to block the Equality Act, just in case anyone was under the impression they donated to homophobic legalized torture organizations, got called out, and stopped being homophobic somehow.
I like that the account was most likely created as a throwaway account because they're too much of a coward to say this on their main so they can be properly shamed.
tw: stalking, grooming, pedophilia, sexual abuse, past suicidal thoughts
I've recently been made aware that Dupsy is still talking about me and is now going to random Megamind fans that don't know me and telling them to avoid me. I'm also aware that they're doing this in the Ruby Gillman fandom. I have no words to really describe the level of discomfort this brings me, but I will attempt.
First of all, all the "grooming" allegations were thoroughly debunked and proven to be bullshit. I can't believe I have to even say this. I'm a victim of grooming and sexual abuse myself. It's extremely traumatic and life-altering shit, and never something I would want to inflict on someone else. I feel like it should be obvious, with the measures I took in the server to ensure no child is exposed to such things. I was recently diagnosed with PTSD due to the shit that happened to me when I was growing up, and between processing that in therapy sessions and stomaching transitioning in a near-constant hostile-to-trans-people online social media hellscape, I am tired.
I love Megamind, more than anything, and this is known and obvious to anyone who's met me. This movie saved my life when I was extremely suicidal and planning to end my life back in 2010. Watching the movie when I did gave me something to focus on, a distraction, and a responsibility as a fandom member that helped distract me long enough to get out of the planning mindset I was in. Had I not seen the movie, I do not think I would have stuck around. I will leave it at that.
And moderating fandom spaces for Megamind has been lovely! I adore this fandom. The people in it are extremely talented and sweet, and just so damn nice, like by default. I say this all the time but I've never experienced another fandom space quite like it. There are usually bad eggs in fandoms, and perhaps -I- am said "bad egg" to some, but genuinely this one is special. I have always felt that way, even when the bad eggs show up and make a stink. It has always felt worth being here for, to me.
And while I hate to give Dupsy the satisfaction of knowing they hurt me, I need to be honest-- it's been rough. I stopped talking in my server, I locked up on most of my friends and stopped talking even in DMs. I still struggle with severe anxiety in the server and have talked to Dal on various occasions about transferring the server ownership to him. He's been very patient with my freakouts and super understanding, but it's still hard. This WAS a place I felt safe, for over ten years! And now it feels like any minor can just say I'm a groomer or a pedo or whatever with ZERO consequences, just because they're mad, just because these are words that make people go "oh shit" and listen, and man! It's not ok! And this coupled with the fact that trans people are often called groomers just for existing, just… man! I'm tired. I'm so tired.
There are real, severe, damaging effects to these claims being thrown around so casually. It's hurtful to me, as a victim of sexual abuse, because when I came forward to people about what happened when -I- was a minor, I was told I "wanted it" and "asked for it". It was made to be my fault that I was abused, and I internalized it for years. It nearly killed me. I cannot stress enough how important it is to not use claims like pedophilia and grooming so lightly-- these are VERY damning terms to use on people and should be reserved for people ACTUALLY HARMING OTHERS. Being mad I banned you from the server is not "abuse" and using my Customer Service Voice to be nice to you and then being obviously tired of you when you were banned is not "emotional grooming". What the actual fuck. ALSO. This was well over a year ago! Why am I still having to post about this? Why are you still TALKING about me? And yet again I ask, where the HELL are your parents?
Anyway, if you've been wondering why I've been so quiet these days and struggling to socialize… honestly? It's this. I hate that this is what did it. I know people trust and believe me, I know the fandom backs me up regularly and I appreciate them all so much for it. I see it, but I never know how to respond. You guys continue to make this fandom feel safe for me even when my entire brain is screaming to run, and I appreciate you so much for it.
Kids deserve to be trusted when they tell people they've been hurt and I hate that the recent proshipping discourse or whatever you want to call it, this culty all-or-nothing shit, has a bunch of minors growing up feeling like EVERYTHING is something to call rapey or predatory, with apparently little room to distinguish when REAL abuse is happening to them. I don't blame anyone for believing Dupsy, and it's honestly better they DO believe all unproven claims of abuse by default, just to stay safe-- but man, it has consequences that follow people, and really should not be a thing to just throw around because you're mad at someone. I just can't believe they're STILL going around and reaching out to strangers telling them to avoid me… like, what the fuck.
I will be ok, I always am eventually, but I needed to say something, because it's honestly been a while since I've said much of anything.
icant even explain why i feel this way about it but this meme, this specific version, just makes me so emotional i love it so so much. its very heartwarming. peace n love on planet earth
With all the shit that streaming companies pull with removing things on a whim and making things exclusive to a single platform/service, I'm content with having a big physical media collection and keeping a list handy so I don't accidentally double buy (it's happened before and I just donate the duplicates to Goodwill)
Hey everyone! I recently made some changes to my Carrd site after announcing that I'm no longer going to use Twitter. Elon Musk is a piece of shit rich whiny manchild and I'm not going to be on the receiving end of his endless temper tantrums anymore.
So in an effort to allow people to know where else to find me since Twitter was my primary site, I've streamlined my Carrd site! Also, I recently got an invite code to that Azure Cloud site everyone seems to want to flock over to. Not too sure about it right now, but I'm willing to stick with it for the time being.
I’ve been working out consistently since I was 19 years old, that’s a whole decade of working out. And someone this week said to me “Well it’s clearly not working because you’ve not lost any weight.” That’s not why I work out. I started at 19 because I was bedridden in a hospital bed and I had spent my whole life focusing on what my body couldn’t do. And for the first time I realized just how much it could do. I had the urge to run for the first time probably because I wanted to get out of there so badly and so I did and that’s where I started. Oh and by the way, the last decade has worked. I can carry a handbag for the first time without chronic pain. I did my first sit up last year after three years of hard work, and most of all my body has allowed me to do everything I enjoy, from squash to paddle boarding. It’s time we see exercise as so much more than aesthetic results, because more than anything I want people to understand I don’t do it because I hate my appearance. I do it because I find it fun, and that’s the best reason to work out.”
New Ocarina of Time video is up! Let's hand over Ruto's letter to the king so we can start searching for Ruto! Also, enjoy my trip to the store to get groceries.
