I post/reblog NSFW, and my blog tries to be as raunchy as possible within the limits of this puritan ass website, which shadowbanned me twice already ♥

Been hyperfixating on DC stuff for a while. More than anything else you'll find Bats and Birds (mostly Sladick), and cute little speedsters (mostly Eobarry). The Eobarry pit is at this point deep enough I don't see the sun nor I can feel its warmth on my skin anymore. Also, I love being gross to Dick especially but no one is safe from me.

Evil characters and grey characters are my special little meow meows. I support their (gay) rights and wrongs. No, I don't think they should be held accountable for their actions, they're not real.

I mostly write smut, whump and/or shippy content. I really like dark stuff & I'm a kinky bastard. Writing gen fics and pure fluff isn't my thing.

I am comfortable with any type of ask. Go ahead and send me that WIP you're writing for some advice or just to share, or prompt me because you want to see your blorbo being tossed around in that specific way. I also have an ongoing Dark Prompts Ask Game right here.

You can also send me hate if that's your thing, I won't kinkshame you I promise.

If I unfollowed you it's 99.9% because you posted WFA content untagged. Nothing personal, I just really don't want to see it. Also, sometimes tumblr unfollows people without telling me, and in the same fashion, doesn't notify me of reblogs, comments or what have you. If you want me to see something but I seem unresponsive, feel free to send an Ask or a DM.

I don't have DNIs, I curate my own online experience. However, please note that this won't ever be a safe space for exclusionists of any kind. And if you can't grasp the simple fact that fiction ≠ reality, that no one is getting hurt & we're just having fun, be nice to yourself and to me and do not follow.

Anyone else is more than welcome ♥ Remember to stay very handsome!

i have understood so many things about online leftist culture by the fact that when i said "your local community has people you will morally and politically disagree with but you cannot lock them out of accessing any tangible service you’re organising" one of the tags responding said "this isn’t about proshippers in here you’re not welcome" like. folks. focus with me. some of us are homeless here.

There's a disconnect happening here because the primary function of social media for most casual users is to form a circle of friends around the usual things that friendships are built on: shared interests and lifestyles and ideas of what is important and what is unacceptable. When people are mainly doing leftism on social media, this encourages thinking of leftism as centered around establishing high-minded social clubs.

For anyone who still isn't getting it from someone who helps people IRL: There's a difference between whom you're helping to feed at the mealshare and whom you're choosing to hang out with for fun after the mealshare. You don't have to invite a hungry person with opinions you don't like to play board games with you, but you do have to help keep them from starving if you're serious about leftist organizing.

[Image ID: Tumblr reply with username blocked out reading: *volunteering at the soup kitchen, holding a bowl hesitantly to my chest* what do you think about age gaps in ships /End ID]

[zeroducks-2]

The thing is, when they say "proshippers" they mean "predators". These people (some of them) genuinely think that if you ship two people with an age gap (or other sorts of "problematic" dynamic) you're the same as Jeffrey Epstein. This is not someone entrenched in fandom discourse saying "in my community I don't want people who ship something I dislike", this is someone saying from their own insane perspective "in my community I don't want predators and groomers".

Which is still a wild statement to make because beside everything it entirely misses the point of the post, and because why the fuck would you even specify something like that in the first place when we're talking about homeless people whose political ideas might differ from yours. But yeah, there is a frankly insane number of people whose point in saying some form of "proshippers are excluded from this conversation about inclusivity" and/or "we should violently kill proshippers" is that they legitimately think that shipping or "condoning" some types of dynamics in fiction = being a real life predator.

How are we at a point now where "trans men and trans mascs don't experience gender euphoria" is a real fucking take that I'm seeing people post and agree with? "Oh, trans men and trans mascs will never understand the moment when you finally put on a dress or skirt and feel like yourself-" chest binders. Packers. Getting a short haircut. Being called "sir" by a stranger instead of "miss" or "ma'am." Growing facial hair. What's even really being said here, that we don't experience gender euphoria, or that our gender euphoria is less significant?

What if a living weapon whumpee remained a weapon but in a reclamatory way. You made me into this, but now I will use it to fight against you. You made me into this, but now I will use it to protect those who are better to me than you were. You made me into this, but I decide what happens with it from here.

Fandom is weird now. It’s becoming less trusting and friendly, and the Orwellian surveillance issues that are currently running rampant in the USA and UK have bled over into fandom spaces.

I’d read the articles that young people have no privacy and have become so accustomed to it that they enact on themselves. Abstractly I knew this and had accepted it, but it’s only now that I’m seeing it become a major issues.

Obviously part of the problem is I need to become a trusted member of my new fandom. But fandom in general is becoming far more hostile to privacy than even just 5 years ago.

I’ve had to leave 3 servers that want to do age verification. And this is new. Not even 5 years ago when I started zines ppl just turning 18-20 were far more receptive to the ideas espoused by us older folks about not being surveilled. But now it almost feels like they *want* to be surveilled.

They’ve become so used to it from tiktok and their government that they crave it. I’d write a dystopia about it but unfortunately what even is there to say that hasn’t already been said?

If you’re 18-22 now and you’re reading this and willing to listen without immediately calling me suspicious: this is not normal. Age verification will not keep you safe and will not keep minors safe either. It will only lead to the normalization of further surveillance and erosion of your privacy.

I know it can be an unwieldy text especially if you’re not used to reading academic sources, but go read The Panopticon. Watch V for Vendetta or read the comic, read 1984. Watch The Lives of Others and understand the ways this modern era is not so different from the Stasi in the film.

Please.

I don’t want to see a rerun of the surveillance state anymore.

Hey so you can't really say "Why can't they just be friends" in a non-homophobic sense.

Because you see, they ARE friends in the source material. Bruce and Clark are best friends. Dick and Jason are brothers-in-arms. Diana and Barbara are galpals. Barry and Hal are bros.

And when someone dares write their silly little fanfiction or draw their funny little fanart, the homophobes of the world will accuse them of "making everyone gay", and indignantly ask "why can't they be just friends".

They can be just friends. In fact, they are friends in the comics and in the videogames and the animated series and everywhere else. If you don't like them shipped you can easily go back to literally anywhere which isn't the very fandom spaces in which they get shipped.

And maybe also stop bothering the people who carved that space for themselves to ship characters which are otherwise always just friends.

Get that homophobic lingo out of your mouths and happy pride month 🏳️‍🌈

Whumper sitting with whumpee, forcing them to tell them their preferences, what they like, what they don't like, what are their hard nos. Treating it like a build up to a consensual scene, except none of it is consensual at all, and whumper is essentially using it as a checklist.

I feel like by now we've all seen the medieval marginalia of nuns diligently picking phalluses from a tree. These illustrations were drawn by 14th century artist Jeanne de Montbaston who worked alongside her husband Richard. To the best of my knowledge, there is no clear reason for the inclusion of these illustrations, but perhaps there was some contextual evidence that was lost to time.

In any case, I decided to illustrate these industrious ladies in my own style amidst a flurry of medieval inspired phallic references and symbols of virility and fecundity. By my estimation, there are about 130 phalluses in this picture.

I'd be against it even if the id verification bullshit only targeted full on pornography, but it is batshit insane that a picture of someone fully clothed, but posed in a vaguely suggestive manner, is lumped together with stuff you'd find on pornhub.

[zeroducks-2]

To be clear I'm not talking about pictures of deserts or couches or kittens mislabelled as mature. Yeah that's absurd too but it happens because Tumblr's AI is ass.

I'm talking about the very intentional fact that people in underwear or a swimsuit get labelled as mature, or people hugging, or a silhouette of a naked person without details, or a scene in which it is implied that the characters are being intimate.

Nothing of this is R rated. Nothing of this is explicit, or pornographic, and lots of times it isn't even vaguely erotic or sensual. I saw people on this site complaining about how easy it was to see "unlabelled sex scenes" on Tumblr and the example they brought was an art of two girls kissing in which one of them had a hand on the other's breast. That is not a sex scene. Wat the fuck are y'all on. I feel like I'm going insane.
