On tagging:

I do not add any automatic trigger/content warnings to my posts. This is for my own mental health. If you're a regular follower and would like me to tag for something, please do send me a message with the request, but be aware the answer may be 'no'. (I do add 'flashing gif' to posts that I feel require it, on request of a friend, though I tend to overtag that.)

The vast majority of my tags are moodboard tags. I sift through my own blog by story or character tags quite often as part of my writing process. The tags are in no way meant to imply that the content of the post is actually that character/story/etc., just that some aspect of it reminded me of whatever I tagged it as. I try not to tag others' original characters/stories with my own OC/story tags, but I have missed this in the past. If I've tagged your OC with mine and you're uncomfy with that, again, please send me a message and I'll remove the tags.

I hail from the era when tags were visible only to the tagger and the followers that cared to read them. I use the tags as such; they're my personal archiving system and a way for me to sotto voce ramble about something often only tangentially related to the post. If this annoys you, feel free to block or unfollow.

Care and feeding of this blog:

I 100% believe in curating your own tumblr experience, and thus do not mind if people ignore, unfollow, or block me so they don't have to deal with me.

Askbox is currently closed, sorry. When it's open, I don't allow anon asks. I wish I could, so that people could ask for a trigger tag without puting themselves, but I realized that I react to the sunglasses orb like a cornered animal, and that's no fun for anyone.

I auto-block: blank blogs, blogs that only like and don't reblog, bots (porn or otherwise), and terfs/nazis.

About:

Identifies probably a little too hard with the above panels from this comic.

Likely older than you think.

Kind of an edgelord.

Difficult to converse with, and defensive, but hesitantly friendly. Like a skittish cat.

Everything else you gotta glean from reading my tagrambles.

Main sideblog is @shadowerrata. It consists of anything that doesn't really fit with the ~aesthetique~ over here.

divingbelles are mermaids in the selkie family who use humanoid skins to house aquatic forms instead of the other way around.

as this lovely lady demonstrates, some of the more delicate divingbelles that take after jellyfish or molluscs hold onto their skins kind of like snail shells. they dislocate the pieces to unfurl from the spaces between when under water, and pull the bits back together when they want to hide or walk around.

while some hold onto their human skins while swimming, the sturdier types hide them in burrows or caves when they hang out in the water doing their water business (a very cool and not nightmare level spooky thing for divers to stumble onto).

one thing about me is I love brutalism. I love concrete. I love not living in a house with cardboard walls and I love looking at a building and thinking this imposing boy would survive a nuclear war

[theundergroundwoman]

I’m sorry for thinking that grim brutalist design and the vibrant resilience of nature go hand in hand. I’m sorry for seeing how striking, atmospheric and refreshing that looks. I’m right though

society if we started making places look like this again just with more plants
