Cameron - late twenties - they/he/she - pansexual - goth trash (please read pinned post for sideblogs and more!)

[vampirethemasc]

Welcome, children of the night, et les autres

I'm Cameron, or just Cee for short. I am a trained mathematician, gigantic D&D/fantasy/anime nerd, and lover of goth music and fashion.

I use they/he/she pronouns in order of preference and I'm pansexual because I cannot be forced to make a decision ever. I'm also married to my partner of 10+ years.

I follow the tag #uservampirethemasc if you'd like me to see something you post.

Have fun and be kind 🖤

PS. TERFS, SWERFS, and MAGA can do me the favor of just blocking me now. You are not wanted nor welcomed here. My blogs are also 18+ and staunchly anti-AI.

PPS. I used to be tashas-cauldron-of-magic-soup, but I'm starting from scratch simply because I was bored and wanted a refresh.

Ever since I was a little boy I knew I needed to be deeply ashamed of my desires wants and of course also needs

the word empathy is WIDELY misused, even in mental health spaces. 

empathy:

is responding to a person’s emotions by experiencing the same emotion as them (i.e. feeling sad when something sad happens to that person, or happy when something happy happens to that person.)

is an automatic response that cannot be controlled

cannot be learned

sympathy:

is recognizing that another person is in pain, even if you do not experience that pain, and offering comfort to that person

is something a person must actively choose to do

can be learned

compassion:

is showcasing care and support via words and actions

is something a person must actively choose to do

can be learned

if you need an example of a person with no empathy who practices sympathy and compassion, look no further than data from star trek: the next generation. he doesn’t have emotions at all, but he’s still kind to people and wants to help them.

stop telling people that they’re evil because they don’t experience empathy. stop equating empathy with morality. stop equating empathy with caring. stop saying that cruel people “lack empathy.” stop throwing neurodivergent and mentally ill people under the bus.

Officially got a notebook to start learning Scottish Gaelic. We have a vowel pronunciation guide and that is it so far 👍

Actually, no, I don't think that friendships dropping like flies in your late 20s and early 30s because no one has time for that between overwork and family obligations and marriage and kids and partners and the ritual of the time slayer is normal and ok. No I don't think deep conversations and spontaneous adventures being replaced with a tired coffee every six months is a normal part of growing up. I don't think that emotional intimacy and soul bonds disintegrating in the face of practical inconvenience is a fact of life. I think that means something is deeply deeply wrong with our society and I will never forgive it for the friends I've lost

My woke take, as someone who has worked in both a public library and a school library, is that we desperately need both more books that are at a higher reading level but a less mature subject matter, and more books that are at a lower reading level but a more mature subject matter, because 8 year olds who are advanced readers are still 8 year olds and don't want to read about graphic violence and torture, and teens and adults who have learning difficulties or who are just later readers for whatever reason are still teens and adults and don't want to read about Billy the Bunny going to school or whatever the hell.

closing statement from an article about being intersex & the possible connection of gender expression and sexuality in intersex individuals, published in The Gay Liberator, 1970s

The one thing about gender is that frankly my ideal gender situation has very little to do with me and infinitely more to do with everyone else on the earth who cannot be fuuuuuuuuucking cool about anything ever

Cut myself short little page boy bangs while waiting for the rest of my hair to grow out. My friends called me their scheming eunuch.
