Hello! Call me telesodalite, or teles, or whatever, and while I have a slight preference for masc terms, any pronouns work; you can even mirror yours for simplicity👍
I post art sometimes! It's random and inconsistent :D! [Art tag is currently in the works]
I tag most things I reblog, so it should be fairly easy to find whatever specific media or thing that interests you while also being able to filter out what doesn't!
My inbox is always open, and tentatively I'll say that you can always message me as well. Fair warning for any awkwardness that may follow though, conversation is not my strong suit :/
[Tagging system below]
[*updated intro, it was too cluttered and long]
—
— [Basic Tag System/List] —
#[rb] - Nonspecific or "untagged" reblogs
#[art rb] - Any and all art related reblogs
#[fiber arts rb] - Any and all fiber art related reblogs
#[writing] - Writing related reblogs
#[birb] - Bird related reblogs
#[fibsh] - Fish and generally most aquatic related reblogs
#[rocks] - Rocks, minerals, gemstones, and fossil related reblogs
#[knights] - Knights, yeah... it's a gender-envy thing I think :/
#[spaceships] - ...If I weren't a walking aroace foodie stereotype, spaceships would be my "hear me out" I think... I rlly like spaceships, they're like boats but better, and in space, it's awesome
— [Fandom Tag System] —
#[*insert fandom*] - E.g. #[middle earth] or #[transformers]
#*insert character* - E.g. #gandalf or #optimus prime
okay more serious version of my other post about this but the fact that arachnophobia modes that censor spiders are the video game accessibility settings things that have become widespread instead of other accessibility settings perplexes me so much. like if you can remove spiders from your game but not things like flashing lights or effects that cause motion sickness i think you might need to reconsider your priorities
Game devs! Removing epilepsy triggers may not be as easy as swapping out a spider model, but that doesn't mean you can just ignore it. Epilepsy can kill.
Here are 4 straightforward criteria to avoid:
Any sequence of flashing images that lasts for more than 5 seconds
More than three flashes in a single second, covering 25%+ of the screen
Moving repeated patterns or uniform text, covering 25%+ of the screen
Static repeated patterns or uniform text, covering 40%+ of the screen
The full guidelines (along with guidelines for many other accessibility features) can be found here: (bookmark this site!)
I don’t think I’ve ever experienced anything as terrifying as my first seizure. It’s something I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy.Cathy Vice,
hey as long as discourse on whether joining the military is bad or not (it is) is doing the rounds again, i’d like to remind everyone that people who were in the military but are not any longer are not ontologically incapable of being leftists or good people. many of the military’s harshest critics are vets. they’ve seen what the military can do. they’ve personally been chewed up and spat. so have their friends. they know first hand the horrors the military has inflicted on the world.
obviously many vets never stop drinking the kool-aid. but many others do. and we shouldn’t reject them as comrades. chelsea manning was in the army before becoming a whistleblower. edward snowden was in the nsa. etc. yes call out people for joining, keep pointing out it’s wrong to kill people for money. even if you’re poor. even if you’re ignorant. but don’t condemn someone solely for their past if they’ve done the hard work of learning and growing. i think it’s pretty easy to walk and chew gum on this one. but it’s easy for some of us to forget that we have to.
#(thousand-yard sex-disinterested aroace stare) cool opinion. love seeing this same sentiment 10000 times a day on this website
im also aroace. being disinterested in sex and romance is still sexual perversion in the eyes of the state. get more perverted in whichever direction fills you with the most joy!!!!!!
It feels cool to be "in" on celebrity gossip before anyone else. I ran into Californian Condor V9 and looked her up on the condor lookup website. It says her current mate is dead and she has no kids but I saw her with a new man AND a juvenile.
refusal to participate due to self consciousness is actually more embarrassing than participating. it took me a very long time to figure that out. abject fear of embarrassment is actually causing you to do things that are more embarrassing than what you fear. you are gonna be embarrassed anyway. let go and be free
