Masterpost!

Hello, everyone! I'm Smoral! Not my real name, obviously, but internet privacy is important.

(If you know me in real life, no you don't!)

This blog mainly serves as a public diary, in which I scream my trashy, trashy hot takes into the void. I also post about my interests, and I would like to start posting art and writing on occasion, if I feel so inclined. If you're interested, read below the cut!

I have a wide variety of interests. Some that come to mind (my favorites will be in bold) include:

80s Pop Music, Chappell Roan, Taylor Swift, Pop Music in General, Florence and The Machine, Hozier, The Crane Wives, Mitski, Tally Hall, and Basic White Girl(tm) musical theater.

I like Hades, Fallout 4*, Terraria, Minecraft, Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, The Sims 4, Stardew Valley, Hypnospace Outlaw, and a whole bunch of other games that I've played here and there.

I really need to read more, but some books that I've enjoyed include: The Crucible, In The Dream House, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, and others. I also enjoy Alison Bechdel's body of work.

I visit the movie theater a lot, and so I basically post about whatever movie I've just seen.

I also post stuff related to art and writing, analysis, and political content, I'm not a super fan of anything, so my knowledge on a certain topic may not be great, but I still enjoy talking about them! I'm also not super defensive, so if you personally don't like something, that's okay as well. I think everyone is entitled to their own perspective, for the most part. The exception to this is politics, as I simply cannot, and will not, tolerate someone who doesn't believe in basic human rights.

*RE: Fallout, I've been considering making a separate blog, just so I can reblog stuff about Piper Wright.

This blog is a MESS. I do want to implement some form of organization for prior posts, though. Here are the tags that I intend to use:

laugh.txt for funny posts

me.txt for stuff that I find personally relatable

shut up smoral for anything original that I post

smoral can't draw for art

smoral can't write for writing

analysis.txt for posts discussing media

politics.txt for politics and societal trends

helpful tips for tutorials and general life skills

posts pertaining to a piece of media will be tagged with the name of the media.

other people's art for fanart

other people's writing for writing

slanek.txt for posts that would interest my partner, mainly stuff about star trek and trains.

I also put commentary in the tags.

I think that's about it! Hope you enjoy my blog!

The blinkies were made by blinkie maker, with the Kirby blinkie and Rainbow Flag belonging to Anakin.

The text was created with random text generators online, and edited by myself in procreate.

I unfortunately don't know who created the alien and little blorbo guy, but I am happy to credit if someone claims ownership!

funniest oopsie in fallout 4 is whoever made this signed baseball just googled random signatures and slapped them onto the ball asset and called it a day.

this club penguin character is canon to the fallout universe.

Dumbest person you've ever met critiquing a piece of media: erhm you know that character isn't real right

In some other universe it isn't taboo to be LGBT, and there's studio Ghibli films revolving around a bookish lesbian and her butch love interest... who takes her for bike rides alongside gorgeously rendered backgrounds...

I really like TADC

twitter historically sucks but man this is a banger of a tweet

[smoralcoral]

I feel like a lot of "who is a true lesbian" discourse just boils down to thoughtcrime

sorry devils

great day to celebrate the immutable scientific truth that there are infinite genders including none at all or several at once or genders that change or stay the same or always were or switch every minute, and there is nothing the devils can do about it. sorry devils

What do you think of people who are therian, otherkin, and alterhuman? Or, perhaps, the ideas of alterhumanity as a whole?

this is a good question had to look up what some of these things were, so bear in mind my understanding is limited and fresh, HOWEVER this one seems pretty easy for me to speak on philosophically because it falls under a BASE philosophy that i have always had

as far as identity and body, my trot is that everyone has the right to do whatever they want with their body, which includes of course things like gender affirming ways (or even humanity affirming or unaffirming aways). that also includes ways in which you identify yourself.

some otherwise well meaning buckaroos get wrapped up in things like 'well i am okay with the standard pronouns but what about neo pronouns of buds who say they identify as non human or a dang tree.' i mean WE ALL KNOW there is the old scoundrel joke about attack helicopters and the thing is this: i genuinely, sincerely, without any reservations believe you can legitimately identify as a helicopter.

who am i to say you are not one? how do we even define what a HUMAN or UNHUMAN is in this swirling mix of matter and energy? is there even really a point where i end and you begin? there are OF COURSE standard answers to this that help us get through the day in a material way, but i feel like once you start talking PHILOSOPHY AND EXISTENCE and really ZOOM OUT then you are opening things up to a grander perception of this timeline, where things like 'what even IS my body?' become very abstract

in a world where all i REALLY know is that 'i think therefore i am' i am not really ready to start imposing strict definitions of these things on other people

what i personally care about is RESPECTING others and showing them kindness. so if someone is identifying in a way that is unusual (not in the sense of bad but in the sense of literally not usual) i will always just say 'okay that is very cool and exciting thank you for telling me'. i mean HECK, as a non dysphoric trans person i identify in a technically unusual way.

it is SO EASY to just 'yes and' other buckaroos expression of themselves. it is SO EASY to just 'yes and' love and exploration. so i fully support and am excited about and whole heartedly believe in any way that buds see themselves fitting into this timeline

I think leftists need to refer to the United States as a slave state more often. It has one of the highest prison populations per capita of any nation, slavery is legal as punishment for a crime, and Black people are disproportionately imprisoned and given longer sentences. The prison industrial complex is modern-day slavery

everyone be quiet. marsha with her snoopy.

i think one of the worst things the left wing internet ever did was push the idea that oppression is basically a virtue, and being oppressed is a sign of your morality. it has made it like…impossible for some of you to hold the idea that most people are privileged in some ways and oppressed in others. AND a lot of you seem to have it in your mind that terrible people cannot be oppressed, and that oppressed people cannot do terrible things, which is a dangerous rhetoric to hold imo.

staring at the dessert menu and twirling my hair and going "should I be baaaaddd" until the autistic girl I'm eating with says "there is nothing bad about eating dessert. it is a morally neutral action"
