Land of Celebration and Bells

Lauren(or Page) she / aroace / autistic I created a good number of popular tumblr fandom posts back in the day, including the homestuck title, land, and dream test, The Madoka Magical Girl and Witch creation guide, my gemsona guide, and more!

let’s talk about how they made it impossible to function without a phone and digitalised everything and then turned around and went “actually! these phone things aren’t safe for kids but it’s magically ok once you’re eighteen. guess you’ll have to have your life dictated by your parents now lol cause we’re gonna take the devices away from you. IT’S FOR YOUR OWN GOOD WHY ARE YOU COMPLAINING”

[do-not-u-dare]

ok my apologies. take away my ability to buy anything too ig because these fuckass stores don’t accept cash anymore. take away my ability to communicate with people outside my house and school because I can’t text and I can’t email and I cant drive to them either and I can’t even fucking get public transport without a phone either. can’t order at a fucking restaurant without being asked to get a membership and install an app and also very sorry but you can only order through our online menu now! have you ever considered that it’s not just about instagram?

Following up on my previous post about how Gaster is not going to happen in Deltarune

By "putting him in your video game series" I can only assume you mean the secret room in one of the two games in the series, which features an easter egg creepy sprite that fans assume is Gaster but near as I can tell is probably a Yume Nikki reference from a developer who has already referenced and homaged Yume Nikki in games he made before and also after Undertale came out

Look I hate to be that guy but Gaster is seriously the most nothing character in Undertale and my money is on any references to Gaster that popped up in or around Deltarune are probably Toby Fox fucking with the audience, which he does often. Either that or we're gonna find out Gaster is the school principle at some point

[infizero]

bringing back my too woke opinion that you should be allowed to change labels without the previous one being incorrect

[infizero]

i think you should be allowed to identify as trans without retroactively saying you were also trans in the past. i think the "born this way" rhetoric is limiting and you should be able say stuff like "i was fully a girl when i was a kid and now im a boy" without it invalidating your current identity but maybe that's just me

it is beyond cruel that venezuela is now a US colony for all intents and purposes and the US still continues to wield sanctions against it to the detriment of the nation's poorest and most desperate people even in the aftermath of an earthquake that's killed thousands

with new innovations in game design, ralsei can now use swear words

[renegadeer]

[li-binauje-artisse]

When i first began a "no recruit" save years ago, i thought it would be the "ralsei is miserable" scenario. Now, i propose we call this the "Queen's gradual fall into despair due to understimulation" route. She is the most miserable person in town right now.

Movement nudge, hand mobility! 🙌

1) do this even if you're under 40. seriously. I definitely should have been doing something like this for years and I only turned 40 a month and a half ago

2) if you're like me just now trying this going "oh god i've only done 15 and i think my hands are cramping" start lower than 30 and increase by 5 once whatever number you're doing no longer makes your hand cramp up. I can manage about 15 per exercise at the moment.

If you're hypermobile, be especially gentle.

Only People Who Can See RED Really Well Can Read These Words

Will you be seeing red after taking this quiz?

I can only read “dogs” and only see anything in one other. I see nothing in any other.

[bunjywunjy]

8/10 but fuck, OW.

[stevolteon]

8/10 also!

Kyoko Kirigiri is so funny. Imagine your special interest is murder mysteries and then suddenly you find yourself in the Murder Mystery School. And you're like okay. Lock in. Don't look excited about this. They'd think you're weird. Or suspicious even. I know she was doing quicktime events

[borkthemork]

[trubbishrubbish]

She's such a nerd when it comes to mystery and detective media that she'll pull out something obscure and be disappointed when someone doesn't get it. It's so adorable

[sugarlover1225]

I drew zombie dess again !!!!

Oooo scary I’m proud of this

[txttletale]

in any just world where international sports were run by bodies with any concerns or purpose other than corruption and self-enrichment, the USA would be banned from hosting international sporting events after the wretchedly racist treatment of the iranian, senegalese, uruguayan, uzbek, and iraqi teams this world cup--not to mention of game officials and fans--as well as the absurdly corrupt direct intervention on balogun's red card

[vulturevanity]

I think we need to kill the sentiment that people lose their right to personhood once they do something bad enough

[vulturevanity]

I don't know who needs to hear this but you need to stop dehumanising people even if those people are "abusers" or "creeps" because you need to understand that you are not immune to doing something equally as bad

Abusers and creeps are not some species of especially heinous animal or alien or monster wearing the face of a human. They're people. And you NEED to drill it into your head that they are people because you NEED to remember that people are capable of doingn heinous shit. And you are a person. And your loved ones are people.

By emotionally classifying people who have done heinous things as subhuman filth incapable of thinking and feeling and acting just like you and me, and by using that emotional dehumanization as a reason to deny those people any compassion or support on a systemic level, you risk becoming blind to abuse/violence perpetrated by someone close to you or even yourself. Because if "abusers don't deserve rights", then you won't ever want to admit or accept that you or a loved one is perpetrating abuse, and that makes stopping the abuse or preventing further abuse much harder. This is how you end up excuaing abusive behaviour on the grounds that, since you don't see someone as a disgusting subhuman pile of garbage therefore they can't possibly be An Abuser, Trademark

[vulturevanity]

And here'a the even harder pill to swallow: since the world isn't split into "abusers" and "good people", in the same way you or someone you love can inflict abuse/violence on others, the people who HAVE inflicted abuse/violence on others can, in fact, change and become better people

There is no bottomless chasm of moral uncleanliness that someone can run off and fall into and get stuck in forever. People can do better. Yes, even those people. You HAVE to accept this. Otherwise not only is there no motivation for anyone to try and do better (which is when people become stuck in a cycle of violence and abuse they don't want to escape), but your idea of a perfect justice system doesn't look any different from Literal Christian Hell. And I HOPE you understand that Literal Christian Hell is, to put it very lightly, not a good justice system.
