Sketches of Sen and Gen’s triplets based from my mpreg!SenGen fic here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/20960471/chapters/51239509! 👦🏻👧🏻👦🏻
“Fine.” Gen propped his head in his hand and examined Senkuu through his lashes. “You know, I’ll admit, Senkuu-chan, before all this terrible flower business, I thought you were asexual–or, I suppose, somewhere on that continuum. And even with this, you still could be, of course. But are you?”
And Senkuu…Senkuu blushed .
Time stopped. Fuck, the world might’ve actually stopped turning and Gen wouldn’t have noticed anything out of this observatory.
He didn’t even know Senkuu was capable of blushing–theoretically, sure, but then again if anyone could and would find a scientific preventative for normal physiological emotional indicators, it was him.
Gen grinned
Oh, and it was a really terrible blush, too. Senkuu’s lighter complexion didn’t help anything when pale red bloomed up his neck and over his cheeks, all the way up to his ears.

okay i do have to say something here as the resident guy with gaming capitalism as a primary hobby/interest:
I think a helpful framework here for people who are struggling with this concept is that jobs are ALSO NOT BEING HONEST when they ask for certain qualifications.
Not consciously! Not as a nasty trick to catch you out! But because the question they are really asking is "Are You Going To Do This Job Good?" but they can't just ask that because there's no way to get an honest answer. INSTEAD they use "years of experience" and "skills" and "qualifications" to describe an imaginary person who they think would be good at the job, and then when you apply, they compare you against the imaginary person to find the person who fits the best.
HOWEVER. They are just fucking guessing, basically. They know that someone who checks every box on the list might still suck shit at the job, and they know that someone who checks like 1 box MAYBE could still be great at the job. It's just impossible for them to know until you're ON the job.
SO. if you are smart and skilled and good at telling a story about yourself, you can show up with your resume/cover letter and tell them "I don't LOOK like the imaginary person who would be good at the job if you just look at a list of my jobs, but let me explain how I have all the same TRAITS as that imaginary person, and I know it would be good at it." You're not lying, you're answering the question "Are you going to do this job good" and you're answering it ACCURATELY (hopefully) with "Yes, let me explain how."
For example - if a job asks for 1 - 2 years of experience in a professional office environment, what they are ACTUALLY asking is "do you know how to behave appropriately in a white collar office environment? Are you going to be chill with a dress code? Do you know not to cuss in front of clients? Can you sit down and work effectively at a computer for 8 hours?" And if you have been the receptionist at a hotel front desk or worked in a call center, u might think "Hell yeah, that's me," and apply even though a hotel front desk or a call center isn't technically an office environment.
(If you want help decoding what Weird Workplace Half-Truths mean, highly recommend binge-reading Ask A Manager, which is just workplace advice columns. Literally thousands of workplace scenarios to practice on.)

The studi says that replacing human artists with AI will save “millions and millions of dollars.”
(a) No it won't. (b) Alas for the other humans who work for/with them; now they know they're next on the list.
…Why can't these idiots just let creatives be creatives? It's not like we overcharge. (Back of brain: "It's that we make them feel insufficient. Like that's somehow our fault.") :/
Complete tangent, but friendly reminder that SAG-AFTRA has been striking against video game companies since July [2024, for any readers in the far future]. One of the things video game companies are failing to give the actors is protection against their performances being used to train AI.
The union has not called a boycott at this time, but please check out SAG-AFTRA's official site and @fans4wga for ways to help. They're unaffiliated with each other, but the latter has been providing useful info on Tumblr for this video game strike and last year's film and TV strikes.
Thanks for tagging us! Please continue to vocally support the striking video game actors and stay up-to-date on the news.

donate to Appalachian flood recovery
Thanks to folks who have reached out 💜💜💜 what a beloved community. I am okay, my area just had power outages, but the flooding and damage farther south than me is bad. It's just really fucking bad. I have a lot of friends in North Carolina and East Tennessee and Southwest Virginia who are expecting to be trapped in their homes without power for a week or more and that's the ones that have homes left.
Above are screenshots from the insta page Country Queers. It's a bunch of locally led mutual aid groups that will turn your money directly into toilet paper, bottled water and diapers.
All of these groups have fucking done this before, a few years ago, in the last once in a lifetime flood that obliterated Eastern Kentucky. EKY Mutual Aid was fucking tireless during the Kentucky floods.
If you want to give tax deductible to more long term work, this is a great group of locally based funders that have been here for the long haul for recovery and will be doing it again.

The Appalachia Funders Network creates catalytic opportunities for funders to collaborate, connect, and drive progress across the Appalachia

This is apparently a hotter take than I thought but: hating on lawyers as a profession, calling them inherently dishonest etc. is politically reactionary. It discourages defendants from seeking legal counsel, puts forth the idea that it’s inherently suspicious to insist on seeing a lawyer before you answer police questioning (your constitutional right!) etc. which ultimately just benefits the state in making it easier for them to convict you. This is one of those things that “progressives” who were raised conservative often don’t realize is one of the parts of their parents’ worldview they should question more, but they should. Not only are lawyers not The Problem with “our system,” but having someone who is educated in the law whose job is to represent your interests in court — getting one regardless of your ability to pay, even! — is in fact one of the best parts of it.
I hate how all the crime shows do this as well. "Urgh, lawyers are the worst", "I hate lawyers", "People are dying and our witness is wasting time with a lawyer." It's copaganda! Fuck that. You have a right to a lawyer for a reason, use your rights!
happy birthday 💙
Shrek 2, while a cinematic masterpiece, is also an interesting look at queerness and comp het.
Fiona is married so it's time to reunite with her parents. But instead of marrying a prince, she's married to an ogre. Not just that, but she's also an ogre. (Yes everyone knew she would sometimes be an ogre but that was when she was a child, she didn't know she would be an ogre for the rest of her life, and besides once she met the right prince she would stop being an ogre. She was supposed to stop being an ogre.)
But okay they're both ogres. We can still ask about when they'll have children because even if they're ogres they can still have kids, right? That's what married princes and princesses do so naturally that's what everyone does. Even if ogres might not be great parents (I've heard that ogres eat their young, is that something you people do?) it's still something that should be discussed.
And okay you can stay in Fiona's childhood bedroom filled with all the reminders that hey, everyone thought she was just a princess and princesses marry princes. Her toys left out from the last time she played with them. The prince slays the ogre. The princess offers a token of gratitude for slaying the ogre. Fiona wrote Mrs. Fiona Charming a million times in her diary because what else was she supposed to grow up to be?
And Harold you have to fix this, your country can't be ruled by ogres. You were unfit to rule when you were a frog but I changed you, I made you better, I made you a prince. You know how this works. Think of your daughter's safety.
Shrek goes to the Fairy Godmother and oh honey, ogres don't live happily ever after. It's just not done. It hasn't happened in all of fairy tale history. You have to change the both of you to be happy. You have to present as a prince and a princess. It will be better. You'll fit in better that way. You'll be accepted that way.
