[ 22 ] | If we're buddies/mutuals shoot me a DM and I can give you my discord! | ... Hi! I prefer to lurk or say my thoughts in tags on posts, this is a personal blog so it'll have loads of things- things I think are important or funny and cool. I like to write creatively and do art of my original characters, I'd love to talk about them!
My neo pronouns are he/hine/hisse/hineself and þey/þem/þeirs/þemself. The former is taken from Middle English masculine pronouns and the latter is they/them spelled with the thorn letter so it's pronounced with the th in thin vs then. I hope that makes sense!
~ Transmasculine
~ Achillean A(ego)romantic A(ego)sexual
I tend to default to the term gay to describe my sexuality (despite being interested in all genders) so it's more like. Gay*, it's complicated and kind of nebulous so the AAA is the. Closest I guess? Maybe I should start using bi to describe it in simpler terms but who knows...In the past I've used lesbian (when I was a girl), pansexual, achillean, aromantic, asexual, fictosexual, etc while on my journey of self discovery. I prefer and lean more towards masculine presentations but I am still very much aroace.

Hi! I'm Wyrm (or whichever of the listed names above you want to call me) and this is my blog for Literally Whatever I Feel Like. I kind of just reblog whatever! I need to be better about my tagging 😬 it's all very unorganized LOL
My interests include but are not limited to: xenofiction, biology, writing, digital art, reading, horror, niche furry visual novels, TTRPGs, and various manga and anime that would take too long to list succinctly (and also I forget most of them if I'm trying to write them out.) So! Some specific things that I like instead:
Music Artists: Siouxsie and the Banshees, clipping., Oingo Boingo, Florence + The Machine, Go_A, Two Door Cinema Club, KNEECAP
Games: Hades I, FFXIV, LoZ Twilight Princess, Style Savvy, Signalis
Anime: Golden Kamuy, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, Jujutsu Kaisen, Chainsaw Man, The Summer Hikaru Died
Shows: Avatar The Last Airbender, Genndy Tartakovsky's Primal, Scavenger's Reign, M*A*S*H, Camp Cretaceous & Chaos Theory, Betsy Lee's No Evil
Manga: Sleeping Dead, Dungeon Meshi, Witch Hat Atelier, DOGSRED
Authors: T. Kingfisher, Andrew Joseph White, Stephen Graham Jones
Books: You Weren't Meant To Be Human, The Bees, The Last Herald Mage Trilogy, A Beast Slinks Towards Beijing, The Red Winter, Redwall Series
Movies: John Carpenter's The Thing & The Fog, Alien, Nope, Train to Busan, Sinners, Secret of Kells, Jurassic Park, Lord of the Rings
Other: Higurashi When They Cry, The Smoke Room, Dawntide
Mind you this media list thing is more eclectic and whatever, my favorite things tend to change but the bolded items are things I really liked and that really affected me or that I'm actively interested in!
Oh I also used to be really into Warrior Cats but now I generally avoid it due to how upsettingly bad the series is.
DNI and more serious things below the cut.
DNI:
~ Radfems, Radqueers, TERFs, SWERFs, TRFs
~ Queerphobes (including, but not limited to: Transandrophobes, Transmisogynists, Intersexists, Exorsexists, Butchphobes, Biphobes, Aphobes + Acephobes, etc. Be accepting and polite.)
This includes people who use derogatory or otherwise hurtful words and phrases to refer to members of marginalized communities. Specific ones I have seen targeting transmasculine people in particular that net a swift and instantaneous block: Pooner, TMRA, Zippertits, Cuntboy, TMEs, Birthday Boy, Transandrobros, Transandrodorks, Transandrocunts, Transandrobabies, Theyfab, Transandrophobia Truther. I specify those because of the current surge in vitriol towards transgender men and transmasculine people. I find it exhausting, disingenuous, and outright mean to resort to name-calling. It's not funny or cute, it's frankly disgusting and reflects negatively on the character of the people who use these words and phrases. It also is not lost on me that words like pooner and theyfab originated from 4chan, while the phrase truther is an antisemitic dogwhistle popular amongst neo nazis and the alt-right. Don't use these words or phrases.
~ Racists, Xenophobes, Antisemites
~ Fatphobes, Pro-Ana/Pro Eating Disorder, Thinspo
~ Ableists
I will block you so fast if you use the r slur. I'll block completely strangers on other people's posts for that shit—same goes for suicide baiting. Don't fucking do it.
~ TMA/TME users
While I find that there is a interesting and complex discussion to be found here, in my personal experience these discussions have not been civil. Intersex people have voiced their discontent and erasure with terms like TMA/TME and it feels cruel and binarist to reduce people down to their AGAB instead of truly applying intersectionality to each individual person. You cannot paint large swaths of people as being exempt from a form of oppression because it will ALWAYS silence the voices of the invisible and erase nuance from an otherwise inherently nuanced discussion. I find it safer and easier to just block and move on.
I generally don't find DNIs to be useful since they can be superficial feeling. However—I want this to be here so people can look at it and see what kinds of people I DO NOT LIKE OR AGREE WITH. I certainly have internal biases I need to examine and work on, but I will never proudly stand with any of these types of people.
I am ANTI WAR and ANTI POLICE. I don't know exactly the kind of politics I subscribe to but the closest approximation would be socialism. I need to delve more into political texts to help solidify my opinions. I am also ANTI CENSORSHIP and ANTI AI.
Ultimately I block liberally and frequently, I will block strangers for being nasty to others on completely unrelated posts to my blog or what I like. I do not expect anyone to truly and honestly follow these, but I want to make my stances clear.
BLM, ACAB, Free Palestine, Free Sudan, and Free Ukraine. CARE ABOUT YOUR FELLOW HUMAN BEINGS.
working with kids and one of them says “you know you eat 8 spiders a night on average right?” and another goes “no no no those statistics are actually skewed by people who like eat spiders recreationally for fun and stuff” and my head snapped up like a fucking sleeper agent
your straight boyfriend is not FRUITY he is not a TWINK he is not GAY FOR THE STRAP he is a 25 year old heterosexual man named TYLER and his favorite hobby is playing MARVEL RIVALS
"Imagine," says the voice, "that you were underneath a blanket. It's a little small, so your feet poke out from underneath it, and your arms come out from either side."
"Okay," says the human, dangling upside down, suspended by a group of tentacles. "I got it."
"Right," says the voice, which comes from everywhere and nowhere. "Now consider a cat. The cat thinks you're kind of like a cat, but you're so big, he has some problems understanding that all of your body is really you."
"Am I the-"
"Yes. Now listen. Especially under the blanket, the cat doesn't really know where your body begins and ends. He sees your feet, and decides to attack them. He's only play-fighting, but his claws are real sharp, so it hurts. What would you do?"
"Well," says the human, gently spinning in the tentacle's grasp, "I'd try to tuck my feet under the blanket."
"Ah, but then it's even worse," claims the voice, triumphantly, "because now your cat sees Blanket Monsters and attacks them twice as hard."
"So you have to grab the cat."
"It's either that or burrito her," says the voice, squeezing the human in the grip of its tentacles. "And since in this metaphor the blanket represents the fabric of reality as you know it, I don't think you'd find it very pleasant."
"Fair enough," says the human, blood beginning to pool in her head. "Can you please put me down, now? I promise I won't attack you again."
"That's what the cat says every time, too, and yet..."
so thinking about this, i am reminded of graystoke, the smartest cat by far that i ever had.
graystoke hated feet and frequently attacked them.
and one day, when he was probably ten or so, he attacked my feet, and i said ow, and he suddenly stared at me with this look of absolute horror. and he did not attack feet again.
You know, as the concept of “zombifying fungi” becomes more and more popular, I notice it still referred to everywhere as like a “brain parasite.” So I guess a lot of people overlooked or forgot how in 2019 it was discovered that cordyceps and other similar fungal parasites leave the brain and nervous system completely untouched. They only control the muscles. They use chemical signals to make the muscles flex in real time where they want to go :)
on twitter this got a bunch of responses like “wow even the evil fujoshis? the homophobic yet hypocritically fetishistic ones? what if the fujoshi is racist?” and like well no obviously not in that case.
