Ramblings of a Phoenix @phoenix-kin-home - Tumblr Blog

Hey, so this isn't an absolute emergency, please try to support others who need it more, but if anyone could help us out it'd be huge. We do have enough but it's technically borrowed from a family member, so the goal is to pay them back as soon as possible and, as such we won't have much of anything in the way of savings.

Thank you all so much to anyone who can help at all :)

my friends held an intervention for me to "stop asking intimidately specific questions". i tried to explain that i am just a good listener but there is apparently "a line between follow-up questions during small talk and interrogation tactics that gets crossed sometimes". turns out my curious nature is "scaring the hoes"

sadclowncentral

when i asked for examples i was told that "do you think your tendency to show appreciation through restoration is part of a greater life philosophy or is that coincidental?" and "is your communication with allied forces satellite or radar based and is it vurnerable to cyber attacks?" are apparently "inappropriate questions to ask someone you just met at a club". but i disagree. as if you wouldn't be a little bit curious about the answer? yeah that's what i thought

[ID: question by anonymous: did they answer the question though ///end ID]

the navy officer i asked about cyber attacks did answer my question very thoroughly. he also answered other questions such as "when refueling on sea, which boat is the primary course holder?" and "would switching to another government branch affect your retirement benefits?" and generally provided a lot of information over the course of a fascinating hour that as a former government employee myself i am pretty sure he should not have told me. but i also think he would have told me his social security number if i asked nicely (i didn't, I was busy learning about the tactical advantages of speedboats).

the guy obsessed with boat refurbishment that i asked about his tendency towards preservation gave me a really haunted look, said "holy fuck" and then after a moment of consideration "i think i am too drunk. i'm going home" and proceeded to leave. in my defense, it was well and truly meant as genuine curiosity and not as the attempt at psychological warfare it turned out to be. he unfortunately did not answer my question.

...he was also the catalyst for the intervention i received.

OP your friends are 100% wrong and “that person at the bar who asks you the question that makes you rethink your whole life because they Actually Listened” is a long, storied and honourable place in the pantheon of strangers you will meet. Sounds like you’re doing a bang up job, well done.

yeah, you're fine, please keep doing that, it's important work.

shoutout to the Manly Mandanna actually belonging (in Deltarune, at least) to a little girl that just wanted to be seen as tough and brave and probably drew the abs on it herself

whatever you do don't imagine the Orange soul crying this out to Asgore before he took the soul, and then Orange souls becoming associated with Bravery in the underground

if you're fucked up enough even hugging someone can feel predatory

Guy who when he gets frustrated declares, "that's it I'm jumping in the pit and storms out of the room"

queer-as-city-folk

This post is how I have intrusive thoughts about jumping into a 10 to 15 ft deep pit sitting outside my college

queer-as-city-folk

The pit might even be 20 ft deep, I've never checked...

queer-as-city-folk

Further context: the pit sits next to a sidewalk, and has a wall between it and the sidewalk, but I could easily climb over said wall and jump into the pit

There is no visible ladder or anything in the pit so I don't know how I would get out

queer-as-city-folk

I have yet to jump in the clit but I consider it Everytime I passby

irithind

Why are you standing next to a heart monitor line?

Also: "clit"?

sapphling

the sex binary is socially constructed and not actually descriptive of any biological truth. you know that, right? it's important to me that you know that

sapphling

i know people can be a little overzealous in describing political backslides ("this used to be the feminism website!!!" etc.) but it's disturbing to me how much incredulity i've gotten from other trans people as of late just for, like, saying that "biological woman" is neither a real category nor a phrase that should ever leave your mouth uncritically

When I say women should have higher standards for how they're treated, this is exactly what I mean. At the first insult? Kick. Him. To. The. Curb.

So a fellow by the handle of Zak Toast has been doing amazing work finding Japanese Battletech art and posting it to the Facebroach. He managed to finally find clean line art for the Mad Cat Mk.II from Mechwarrior 3050 in the Armor Core Official Data Book.

Gay shenanigans today

- Went on a sorta date with a tumblr mutual… it was very gay, and she was super cute.

- Rescheduled date with coworker to be this Sunday instead of next… so yay! (Might stay at her place after as we have the same work shift Monday)

- Reconnecting with friend/crush I haven’t talked with in a couple months. Starting to set up time to call and catch up.

i'd make a joke about "let the HUSBAND giggle under the covers and tell HIS WIFE to put that camera away before dying before HIS WIFE'S story starts" but lets be real he'd still get more fanart

strawberry-crocodile

sir do you understand that you are being criticized right now

tinkerbitch69

The best thing about tumblr is you can just make a criticism of a very specific person completely unprompted and then that person will appear as if summoned in your notes to prove your point for you.

when people treat trans women's breasts as if they aren't real breasts and when they treat our vaginas as if they aren't real vaginas they are contributing to the idea that when we are raped it isn't really rape

stop letting miserable people on the internet convince you that you must have a concrete, well-constructed opinion on everything that has ever existed.

People who think sheep are killed for their wool are so hilarious to me. Does your barber slit your throat whenever you get a haircut?? Are you a returning customer to Sweeney Todd? Lmao it grows back, fools.

squareallworthy

This is completely ignoring the fact that the sheep's soul is stored in its wool. So sure, the body remains, but the spirit, the essence of the sheep, that's gone forever, and then as the wool regrows a new soul moves in.
