#b) text on their blog is hard to read

my pokemon RPC homies in christ, I’m begging you please make your blogs readable and accessible.

[antimony-medusa]

One of the things that I think sometimes gets lost when we talk about what's appropriate in fandom spaces is the notion that things can be appropriate in one space, but not for another. And that doesn't mean that the thing that's inappropriate in that setting is wrong, it just means that it's rude in that space. I think people want a single set of rules that's appropriate everywhere, but the thing is, you have to be able to assess the situation, and adjust your behaviour accordingly.

So an example. I have a fairly popular text post that was me asking about c!phil and religion in all innocence, and someone said "the only thing I have to say about c!phil is that he worships on his knees, thank you and goodnight". And I reblogged it like "I can't believe I forgot about how this fandom does phil analysis", cause it was at the height of the dilfza memes.

Anyways that's obviously a phil-is-happily-married/oral sex joke, in an oblique innuendo way, and on this site, where Phil is not here, and his friends are not here, with it being clear I was talking about the block man character, and we make jokes about sex and profanity (a very popular url scheme for a long time was "[name]shugecock" (or smalldick, depending on the joke)— that's a fine joke to make. I'm an adult, I can make sex jokes about fictional characters on the sex joke fictional character social media site.

If I was to make that joke in Philza's twitch chat, a) in his face, b) with his wife modding, c) in an enviroment where people aren't prepped for sex jokes, d) with it being not clear if I was talking about the cubito or about the real guy, that would be wildly inappopriate. I would be banned in every chat Philza mods in and I would deserve it.

That doesn't mean that it's inappropriate to make the joke in the first place though, just because I wouldn't do it at a Phil meet and greet. It means you gotta learn to read the room. (And like, sometimes it's hard to learn to read the room, but you can do it by pure brute-force memorization. I did.)

This is the same theory that underlies the fact that you can call your friends a bitch in a friendly way, because you are friends and you know each other's boundaries, but if you call your boss a bitch, you will be fired. There are rules about workplace appropriateness, and there are rules about what's appropriate in front of kids (I teach teens, I do not swear in front of them, I swear a LOT in front of my roommate), and there are rules about what's appropriate in different fandom spaces. Participating in an exchange about pregnancy and babies with your favourite blorbo of the moment? Great. Showing the actor gift art you got of him pregnant? No. Bad. Go directly to jail, do not pass go, do not collect two hundred dollars.

The thing that concerns me is that I think there are slight signs that as we get more comfortable with sexy jokes and offcolour remarks as a MCYT fandom (QSMP is the big banner example but it happens with other smps), we're taking what's appropriate in one space (tumblr, home of the brain worms, where I have seen the blog "philzaswetpussy" on my dash), and we're bringing it into places that it's not appropriate (sure, slimeariana is clearly canon, but maybe don't put the actual dicks-out fan art in the art tag on twitter that slime checks). Cause we can obviously tell that the rules twitter is going with are silly for here, so it's full speed ahead for roier/spreen etc, but the trick here is that it's full speed ahead HERE, or in fandom servers, and not necessarily in the streamer's faces.

We have a bunch of situations where creators have said that it's not their place to weigh in on shipping or nsfw etc, and people have taken that as a go ahead and that's fine, but thats still something where I'd like, caution people that just because they said "not gonna look at it not my deal", that doesn't mean that like, you should make it difficult for them to avoid looking at it. Talking about scitties is an honourable tradition, but telling scar that he makes you question your sexuality in his TTS— I made a horrified noise in real life and the cats came to look at me.

And I'm talking about the shipping, but this is also a thing with like— sometimes I see a streamer and I go "my friend you just vividly described neurodivergent symptoms" but it is ABSOLUTELY not my place to say that in their chat. It might not even be appropriate to make comments about it on my blog, with the amount of followers I have. I have to keep the "streamer just described the ADHD experience again :pensive:" comments for the group chat. And we all nod and go "yeah sounds like streamer", and we do not put it in his face, cause that's inappropriate.

We get to have fun with the fictional characters, including off-colour fun, but we still have to remember that there are real people who don't know us who are steering those fictional characters around, and it can be profoundly weird to see some of the (stuff that is appropriate in fandom spaces!) just up in your face in the regular fan art tag.

Just think about the space you're in, and who you're in front of, and if a CC notice is actually likely, and if a CC notice would be Very Bad actually with what you're doing, and keep the "world's sluttiest absent father" bracket (with associated slutty fan art) for here, not with the streamer tagged on twitter.

[jewish-vents]

I was adopted by Jewish people and converted to Judaism when I was a teenager. The morality Judaism offers has guided me through navigating my personality disorder, my severe alexithymia, my impaired judgment and my bouts of irrational paranoia. My original family lost custody of me because they beat me senseless, starved me, burned me, broke my bones and actually killed my sister by beating her to death. My girlfriend, a goy, texted me images of alleged victims of the IDF that a single reverse Google image search would have showed her are victims of US military intervention in Syria. And she honestly said, "Sometimes I think it would be better if you hadn't been adopted so you weren't technically sort of part of Israel."

I've never been to Israel but I have been up all night and now, as the dawn breaks, I've come to the conclusion I need to cut her out of my life. My whole life I've struggled with outbursts of anger, it's a part of most Cluster B personality disorders. When she said that I wasn't angry. I felt hollowed out. It feels like she ripped the personhood out of me. Because if you care about a person's well-being, you would never, EVER look at them and go, "I think it would be better if you had stayed with literal child murderers rather than be Jewish, which I am going to conflate not just with Israel but with the image of the IDF spread online". I can't be angry because it's so cruel I can't wrap my mind around it. It seems unreal. I kept checking for hours, convinced I must be having a break from reality because of the stress. I kept thinking it must be a visual hallucination. I keep thinking I'm going to wake up and this is going to be a very strange dream.

I know breaking up with her is going to hurt her very badly no matter how nicely I do it. We've been dating a very long time. But I want to have kids someday and I can't do it with a woman who would rather I be dead than be Jewish. I'm not a guy who does the whole "my partner's beliefs have to match mine" thing but I can't raise Jewish children with her. I can't even trust her to see me clearly.

It's taking everything in my power not to say anything to her until I can calm down enough to approach this from a stable place. In my entire life, I don't think a single thing someone has said has ever messed me up so profoundly in my life.

I'm sorry I'm rambling. I can feel that I'm all over the place. Feel free not to publish this if it's too long. I can't imagine how much stress running this blog is. You probably get a bunch of hate and garbage on top of the already hard job of reading everyone's pain. I hope you're taking care of yourself. Thank you for running this blog.

I'm so sorry for all of that. I think you're making the right decision to cut her out. It's very reasonable to worry about how she might treat any children you have in the future, but that was also an indefensibly cruel thing to say to you.

Breaking up might hurt her, but that isn't your fault. You need to take care of yourself. -🐞

[trek-tracks]

hi.

I just wanted to say...I ended up landing back on your blog a while ago, following an ongoing TOS hyperfixation. it was the first time I'd looked at tumblr again in ages. and I happened to stumble across a post where you had left these tags--

and that, uh, absolutely floored me. like, when I say I didn't think anyone would notice I was gone, I don't mean that anyone did anything to make me think that--it's just, when you get a head full up with depression, it's real easy to convince yourself of things like that, you know? and you can do all kinds of positive thinking exercises to try to fight it, but actually having a concrete rebuttal come along and knock the whole narrative down is something else entirely.

it's a whole thing and I don't want to traumadump on you or anything. I just, uh, wanted to say thanks, I guess. also I now have a folder full of TOS text post memes saved, so thanks for that too.

I spent the past few days debating whether or not to answer this publicly, and please let me know if you'd rather I take it down. In the end, I think it's important that a) everyone knows I think you're awesome, and b) to send the message to everyone that more people care about you than you think. (Yes, you, reading this. I don't care what your brain says. You are important to people, even if you don't know it yet.)

I had no hope or expectation you would ever see those tags, and they are honest. You were one of my early friends on Tumblr, back when I was really seeing what this platform was all about. I loved your insights, I loved your jokes, and I always enjoyed our interactions. I saw that you were having a hard time, and I was definitely worried when you left. However, I didn't want to ask you to come back to a platform that was clearly draining to you, or be another expectation in a sea of expectations. I googled you a few times for my own peace of mind, but that's as far as it got. In this online world, sometimes it's hard to show we care without feeling awkward or overbearing.

Ultimately, though, the thing about this online world is that we also never completely disappear, especially if we interact with each other. Chains of posts and responses are snapshots of friendships, ephemera preserved in time. It's sad and fond and lovely all at once. Every once in a while, that past resurfaces, and we remember. Sometimes I wish we could know when someone is thinking about us, a little pinprick of warmth we could carry around, but maybe it'd get excessive and feel like heartburn.

I want anyone who follows this blog to know--if we're mutuals, or if you show up in my notifications every once in a while (because after my initial burst of following people I've become really remiss about adding mutuals, which is only a good thing because it would mean I'd spend even more time on Tumblr), I think about you, and I hope you're doing well. You matter.

When I say that I am thrilled that you're back and recovering, Rev, I mean it with my whole whole heart. It made my week. So often we don't get to read the next chapter of our online friends' lives, and thank you so much for updating us.

[historicity-was-already-taken]

History Blog recs

One of my Very Specific interests over the last...idk 10 years, has been reading blogs about the A Song of Ice and Fire series, by historians. I'm not sure what it is about those books: the complex, multi-layered narrative, the author's claim to work creatively with real world history, the micro-arguments contained in every arc, or what, but historians have the most FASCINATING shit to say about those books.*

I've learned so much about the logistics of civilization, the intellectual history of leadership theory, the history of subsistence agriculture, the type of agriculture needed to sustain societies of a certain size, the evolution of military theory, etc from this very specific, Historians Engage With ASOIAF and its Television Adaptations genre of blog.

There is, of course, the late great Steven Attewell's @racefortheironthrone, but I recently discovered this gem: A Collection of Unmitigated Pedantry by Dr. Bret C. Devereaux. I just finished his series analyzing, problematizing, and ultimately debunking George RR Martin's claim that the Dothraki "were actually fashioned as an amalgam of a number of steppe and plains cultures… Mongols and Huns, certainly, but also Alans, Sioux, Cheyenne, and various other Amerindian tribes… seasoned with a dash of pure fantasy."

In Part IV, he writes:

... declaring that the Dothraki really do reflect the real world (I cannot stress that enough) cultures of the Plains Native Americans or Eurasian Steppe Nomads is not merely a lie, but it is an irresponsible lie that can do real harm to real people in the real world. And that irresponsible lie has been accepted by Martin’s fans; he has done a grave disservice to his own fans by lying to them in this way. And of course the worst of it is that the lie – backed by the vast apparatus that is HBO prestige television – will have more reach and more enduring influence than this or any number of historical ‘debunking’ essays. It will befuddle the valiant efforts of teachers in their classrooms (and yes, I frequently encounter students hindered by bad pop-pseudo-history they believe to be true; it is often devilishly hard to get students to leave those preconceptions behind), it will plague efforts to educate the public about these cultures of their histories. And it will probably, in the long run, hurt the real descendants of nomads.

Which just. I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT IT. Y'all know how deeply concerned I am a. with the outsize influence the entertainment industry has on memory; and b. how little that industry gives a shit about responsible use of its own power. So like, this is my shit. I'm still exploring this blog and it is a TREASURE TROVE.

*I do not include myself in that grouping. My thoughts are like: BUT WHICH ONES ARE THE JEWS DANY IS MY UNPROBLEMATIC QWEEN/AZOR AHAI/PRINCE THAT WAS PROMISED/STALLION THAT'S GONNA MOUNT THE WORLD/ETC I CAN'T WAIT TIL SANSA SHOWS HERSELF IS DANY GONNA BURN IT ALL DOWN AND EMERGE FROM THE FLAMES LIKE THAT ELMO GIF IS ARYA GOING TO RIDE A WOLF WOW I DON'T CARE ABOUT BRAN I THINK THE RHOYNAR ARE THE JEWS WHERE IS THE GODDAMN FUCKING WINDS OF WINTER

**Also, I never watched more than 2 episodes of the show. I hated how it added in sexual violence and nudity for no reason when there was already PLENTY of that in the text, most of it with narrative purpose. But then I read the books because it was 2012 and I wanted to keep up with pop culture.

[prof-peach]

You've mentioned that you are dyslexic and I was hoping you might be willing to answer some questions? No pressure if it's too personal though.

I'm trying to revamp my blog* and make sure it is accessible to as many people as possible. I have already figured out contrast for colorblind individuals, but moving on to the font has been a nightmare. I know comic sans was designed for people with dyslexia, but my old literary magazine teacher is in my head telling me I can't use it. Are there any other fonts that make reading easier for you personally? Or just other things I could do to the text (size, color, boldness, ect.) that would make it more accessible for you?

*not the blog I'm sending this ask from

Sure, though don’t know how much help I’ll be!

Colour choices are very helpful, dark mode literally saves my life on a number of websites, a lighter text on a darker background often helps me focus up. I find a larger font is better too, more because when I’m reading my eyes will jump around irrationally between words to do so.

Most people will apparently go from A, to B, to C, ect ect. In order?? Sounds wild to me haha

I tend to go from A to E, to C, back to A, to B if I’m lucky. Takes me a while to get through big chunks of text. A lot of how I adapt involves a physical item on my end. A card, a pencil, a piece of paper, something to separate the line of text I’m on to stay on that one point.

I am not educated in terms of what others go through, this is just my issues, and I won’t lie, there’s defo a little tism and adhd in the mix, it’s a hot pot of distractions haha!

So bigger text makes lingering on one word easier, least from where I’m standing.

Breaking things up into more manageable chunks is handy, formatting helps, big paragraphs (which even I am guilty of writing) are hard to get through in one sitting. I gotta highlight where I got to, get up and come back to it sometimes. Or if I’m in a rush read it like 4 times for the information to go in and stick around. Even then I’ll forget stuff.

As for comic sans. I personally loathe it with a burning passion. It’s a combination of art eye that hates how it looks, growing up with teachers using it “for legibility” but not realising it’s like…a child font. It bugs me so much. What’s worse is I live with a really talented graphic designer, who makes all his fonts himself more often than not, and so his hatred for it only fuels mine haha!

‘Helvetica Neue’ is designed for ease of reading, used in public transport particularly in new york subway systems, it’s whole thing was to be glanced at and quickly be legible. So try that one? Might be easier on the eye.

Sorry I don’t have better advice, I can only say what I do to work around it, but it might help a little? I’m sure people can message you or chime in on how they adapt and cope with dyslexia.

Unrequited love? - Matty Healy

Part 5 of Unrequited love...

A/N: I'm not so suuure about this part, let me know what you think! THANK YOU FOR ALL THE SUPPORT ♥♥♥

Warnings: angsty feelings, anxiety, typos.

Word count: 2.5k

Blog masterlist

Y/n had been working all morning as a way to silence her anxiety. The boys left almost one month ago, almost a week ago she started to miss them even more. Y/n was happy for them, doing what they love most, but also she worried about them overworking themselves, especially Matty. He always wanted to give his best at every single concert. 

During those weeks apart, Y/n and Matty found time to talk regularly, even with the different time zones getting in the way. From a few weeks prior, she noticed he wasn’t doing entirely fine, even when he tried time and time again to reassure Y/n. She knew best.

Y/n moved rhythmically her legs, she couldn’t keep herself still. The coffee she drank before work wasn’t helping at all to ease her nerves. Her stomach twisted with the mere thought of Matty not doing okay and lying to her. 

Matty usually shared with her his deepest thoughts. Although, every time they were miles and miles apart he formed a facade so Y/n didn’t worry about him. This wasn’t the first time. 

That’s why Y/n chose to test another way, the plan B. As soon as she woke up, Y/n sent a text to George saying she needed to ask him something. He agreed to it, but first they had the soundcheck. Y/n had been counting the minutes for his call to came through. 

Y/n was in the middle of replying to an email, when her phone started to vibrate on her desk. Like a reflex move, Y/n picked it up. She told a lame excuse to her coworker and ran to the bathroom. 

“Hi.” Y/n answered the call, locking the door behind her.

“Hi, Y/n/n!” George greeted her. There were no more sounds than his voice coming from his side, he was probably in some room alone. “How are you?”

Y/n bit her nails, thinking a good way to ask him. “I’m good, G. How are you?”

“Me or Matty?” he teased her.

“Both.”

G dropped his joking tone, noticing Y/n was worried. “I’m good…” George said, suspiciously. 

“How is he? Tell me the truth, G. I know he’s lying to me.” Y/n almost begged.

Y/n’s heart picked up when George took his time to answer. He was thinking really hard about his next words, which alerted Y/n.

George let a bit breathe out, “He’s not doing fine, I’m sorry to tell you…”

“How bad?”

“Um, jet lag is taking the best of us all, we landed safely, but he had problems to check in at the hotel. Fans are outside the hotel and some are guests as well. Add to the mix, all the shit they’re talking about him.” 

“Shit George.”

Y/n was ashamed to admit she had spent hours scrolling through TikTok and Instagram, reading comments. She wasn’t oblivious to the fact that most of those hating him and saying an entire spectrum of insults weren’t fans. Although she was sure Matty read those. None of them knew the true Matty, and her heart swell with him reading those lies. 

“I know, I’m trying my best to help him but…I feel like I’m not doing enough-” George admitted out loud for him and for Y/n.

“That’s not true!”

The boys –and the whole crew in reality– functioned as a group, as a family, and they care a lot for each other. Y/n was sure they were doing the absolutely best to help Matty.

“I’m not so sure, Y/n.”

“George, I bet all of you…are doing your absolutely best. Not only to support him, but all the band as well.” she reassured him.

“Yeah…but he’s my best mate, I feel the need to do more…”

“What else could you do?”

“There’s something I’d been thinking about.” his tone made her pulse jump. 

“Okay?”

George went straight to the point, “I think you should come.”

“You think that would help? I’d love to, but-“

G cut her short. “He listens to you, Y/n.” he was right, but she had a few doubts this time. 

“May I remind you that he’s lying to me about all of this?” Y/n protested. 

“Because he knows you would worry, as you’re doing.” G was right time again.  

“Yeah, he’s my best-“

“Bullshit.” he was reaching a new point of annoy with Matty and Y/n dancing around each other.

“Shut up, George.” Y/n was way too busy worrying to think about her feelings.

“Okay, that’s another conversation.” George gave her that. “I’m begging, not asking, literally begging for you to come. I’ll pay the ticket-“ he continued with his position. 

“Okay, okay…you don’t need to beg or tell me twice. Let me see when I can-“ Y/n said, thinking how to move things around with work to travel as soon as she can. 

“Thank you, thank you, thank you!” George chanted.

—————————————————

Y/n walked through the halls of the fancy hotel room, with the boys hot on her heels. They already told her the number of room he was staying, so she was heading there.

Once she found it, Y/n stopped in front of the door. She lifted her hand on a fist, ready to knock, but something stopped her. 

She glanced behind her, founding the three grown up men expecting her next action. 

“Do you mind?” Y/n asked, trying to suppress a smile. 

“Oh!” Ross opened his eyes wide. 

Adam’s cheeks turning red, grabbing Ross and George by the arm to drag them far away. “Sorry!”

Y/n shook her head, returning her sight to the door’s number. 

“Good luck!” she heard George’s voice far from her. 

Y/n laughed, muttering, “Boys.”

With the only thought occupying her mind about Matty being at the other side, she knocked strongly once. 

“Yes?” Matty wondered from the other side. 

Y/n couldn’t help to smile, “Me.” she simply said, hoping that he understood who she was.

The door swung open, revealing the curly boy standing with a surprised expression. He was staring at her form, trying to understand if she was a product of his imagination or Y/n was in fact standing there. 

“What are you doing here?” Matty managed to ask. 

Y/n took his appearance in. Matty had his hair pointing to every single angle possible, his chest was bare, his tattoos in all its glory, and he was only wearing sweatpants hanging low.  

“Hello to you too, Healy!” she joked about his greeting. 

Before Y/n could move a muscle, Matty engulfed her in a hug. Her body stiff at first after the sudden movement, even though she immediately melted inside his arms.

“Oh, baby…” Y/n exclaimed. Letting her hands rest on his back, caressing the skin there softly. 

���Are you really here?” Matty whispered from her neck. 

She comforted him, “I am.”

“You talked with the boys?”

“George.” Y/n only mentioned his bandmate name. 

“Mmm.”

The sound of people leaving one room at the end of the hall, startled Y/n.  

“I think it’s better if we get inside…” Y/n suggested.

Matty showed his face again, staring at her eyes, “Sorry.” 

Y/n felt how Matty took her hand on one hand and the handle of her bag on the other. 

*****************************************************************************************

Without letting go of her hand, Matty took Y/n directly to the balcony. The small space was occupied by a nice outside couch with room for both of them. 

Y/n was laying with Matty’s back facing her front, he was between her spread legs with his head resting on her chest. His messy curls were temping enough for her to run her hands through them. 

They had fallen into a comfortable silence after Y/n told him all about her journey to get there. Making big gestures and mimicking some old lady being annoying, she wanted to cheer Matty up, and it was working.

“Feeling better?” Y/n asked, looking down at his face. Matty had his eyes closed, enjoying her touch. 

“So much better.” he admitted. 

“Am I that powerful?”

Matty was too gone to suppress his words from coming out, “You know you have that power over me.”

Y/n wasn’t sure what to say about it. She tried to joke as a way out, “I think Adam has more power over you.”

“Nah.”

Y/n though about the long month apart, Matty was her best friend before anything else. He was a constant in her life, and every time he had to leave it broke her. “I missed you.”

“I missed you too, darling.” Matty glanced up to her face, without moving from his spot. 

“Are you going to spill what’s going on inside this little ratty head?” Y/n titled her head, staring at his beautiful eyes. 

Matty couldn’t maintain it, his face facing away from her. “My head is not little.” he pouted. 

“Matty-“

“I’m sorry I didn’t tell you…” he touched the side of her leg, distracting himself from the unsettling feelings inside him. 

“It’s okay, Matty.” Y/n said caring. “I’m here now, you can tell me.”

“It’s been all…a lot.”

“What do you mean by all?”

“The travelling, the aeroplanes, the hotels, the time zones, the concerts, media coverage and…” he stopped suddenly.

“And?”

“And you were at the other side of the world.” Matty mumbled, feeling embarrassed. He hated himself to sound like such an idiot, such a child. 

“Home it’s not that far…” Y/n tried. 

“It was…now you’re here.” Matty said. Saying those words calmed him more than he was able to admit.

“Matty-“

He continued without stopping for a single minute, “I’ve been thinking about your birthday…and the evening before I left.” he let Y/n know. 

“Why?” Y/n let her hands travel from his hair to his chest. 

Matty shivered under her touch. “You know why.”

“No, tell me.” she encouraged him, tracing the lines of the tattoo adoring the centre of his chest. 

“I think it is obvious.” Matty was scared to speak everything going inside his head. He wanted to tell her, but the rational part of his brain was trying to stop him.

“No.” Y/n tried to keep an external collected look, messing a little with him.

“You just want me to say it…” Matty groaned, hiding his face behind his hands.

Y/n let her face buried inside his hair. “Maybe.” 

“Little shit!” Matty stated, turning around inside her arms.  

Y/n gasped at his words, “What did you just call me?” her eyes were wide open as well as her mouth. 

Matty stared at her eyes, placing his hands on her hips, pinning Y/n on the couch. “I’ve been thinking about every single time we almost…” he said with his voice lowering a tone. 

“Almost?” Y/n couldn’t help herself to keep messing with him. 

“You’re enjoying this way too much.” Matty exposed her, slowly approaching his face. 

Y/n moved around, so her body was resting fully on the couch. “Finish your sentence, Healy.” she dared him. 

“We almost kiss.” Matty stopped at half way.  

“And what you think about it?” Y/n traced the skin from his strong arms to his neck slowly, grabbing his curls when she reached her destination. 

“Did you want me- want me to-“ Matty stuttering, distracted by her hands. 

“Yes.” Y/n said, directly to his eyes. 

Matty lowered another inch, “I didn’t finish.”

“Oh, sorry.”

“Did you really wanted to kiss me?” Matty inquired. 

The singer let his whole body rest on top of hers, trying not to crush Y/n at the same time. Their foreheads were directly touching. Feeling him so close was a pleasure she never felt with someone else. Y/n breath deeply.

“Matty-” 

“Because I’ve been dying to kiss you.“ Matty openly confessed, wetting his lips drawing her attention to them. 

Y/n brought him down all the way, finally kissing him. Matty let his right-hand travel to hold her jaw while his lips attack Y/n’s. The tempo of the kiss was rather slow and calm, although Y/n felt how her entire body was burning up.

Matty pushed up, detaching his lips, when he felt the lack of air. Y/n opened her eyes slowly. 

“Yes, I might have been thinking about it a lot lately.” she replied to his earlier question.

“Y/n.” Matty whispered, feeling like everything was a little better after kissing her. “You really mean it?” he needed to be sure, Matty needed her to tell him.

“Matty Healy is feeling insecure because of…me?” Y/n brushed their noses slowly. 

Matty frowned, “I swear…”

Y/n took advantaged, chuckling, pecking his lips a couple of times repeatedly. “I do, Matty. I didn’t though you felt the same way.” Y/n bit her lips, without looking at his eyes.

“There's no one else.” 

“I bet there’s a long line of girls waiting-“

“You know how I mean it, Y/n.” Matty tried to soothe her worries. 

Y/n dared to return her sight to his hazelnut eyes. “I do.”

“What about you?”

She furrowed her eyes, trying to get what he was asking, “What?”

“What about John?” Matty tested the waters. The pink tone appearing at his cheeks made her chuckled. 

“What about him?” Y/n touched his rosy cheeks. 

Matty plopped down, hiding his face on her neck, “Are you a thing…went out with the twat?”

He waited for her answer with his heart in his hand. Feeling immediately better when Y/n spoke.

“No, I never replied when he asked me out.”

Matty laugh, making her neck tickled. “Baby, that’s mean!” him calling her that warmed her inside. 

“I was hooked up with someone else. Sorry!” Y/n stated, making Matty come from his hiding spot. 

“How’s the lucky man?” he wiggled his eyebrows. 

“You and the man thing.” Y/n placed her hand on his face, pushing delicately. Matty blew a raspberry on her palm, so she took it out. 

“So, I am the one you fell for?” Matty smirked, returning to be inches away from her lips.

“Don’t be so smugly, Healy.” Y/n turned her face to a side, feeling shy.

Matty drew a path of kisses from her neck towards her cheek. “No one is going to stop me. I just kiss, for the first time, the girl I lo- like…nothing is stopping me!”

“Such a boy.” Y/n returned her attention to his loving eyes. 

Matty faked being offended by her words once more, “Take that back.”

“Make me.” she dared him.

“Oh, I will, sweetheart!”

Matty started to tickled her sides until she was a mess under him. They returned to kiss once more when she calmed down. Y/n thought she could get used to kiss him, and Matty was aware he was already addicted to her taste.

if my requests are closed that means theyre closed dont ask me to draw shit please and thank you

im AUTISTIC i am on that mf spectrum been diagnosed since i was three. for me this means im not naturally fluent in social norms or what’s expected from an interaction or how to read others very well. i also have heavy special interests and find it really hard to turn the conversation away from something im fixating on or specially interested in. i also have extremeeeee sensory issues and a hard time being completely flexible when im comfortable in a routine so just be patient with me man adjustments are hard for me. my empathy is also extremely low and im a really really high masking person so if i come off as well versed or allistic just know that i either took a million years to format the right way to say things or i am entirely going off a predetermined script and will fumble if caught off guard. other important stuff ive got adhd bpd cptsd and major depressive disorder which all those combined makes me really flaky when it comes to responding or follow through. i may not reply to you for like 500 years or maybe i will be gods speediest most motivated soldier. just don’t expect me to be a readily available fully capable robot ok?? ok.

[familyabolisher]

hi! im new to theory, as in (imo) hard, non-fiction books. when reading some, i realise I lose track of the points inside the book, so recently I have been (attempting) to make notes. however, im a complete amateur, and I don't know exactly how to. back in school, i used to just skim these type of books finding whatever was 'useful' ie. relevant to my assignment/essay/class discussion and would simply dismiss the rest. i dunno if it's just me but I feel like these books are overwhelmingly packed with information - and useful information at that! do you have any tips to organise points mentioned in these books without getting bogged down on details/focus shifting on one line of thinking? if not, it's completely fine. love your blog, and have a great day!

hey! i actually think the best thing you can do is to keep taking notes as you go, because in my experience that's the best way to keep track of information and the best way to identify discrepancies in the text. obviously this can make reading nonfiction a bit of a slog, but ime it's a lot better to have a thorough critical position on a handful of texts than to have skim-read and half-absorbed a lot of them; if you're reading in around the same subject area, it's also pretty likely that you'll gain greater familiarity with texts/scholars/arguments/points of reference over time, such that you won't need to keep writing down Every Little Thing.

i find that the best way to take notes is to identify the key argument(s) in a particular section and to break down the evidence being used to substantiate those arguments. so my notes often look something like:

[ARGUMENT]

sub-argument/supporting evidence

sub-argument/supporting evidence

sub-argument/supporting evidence

and so on. kind of like trying to reverse-engineer the essay/chapter plan that the author was working with.

imo, if you're just looking to get the gist of an argument, it's actually fine to just read the introduction and conclusion to a text. obviously this is not always the case, and if you're looking to seriously posit a position on one particular text then you ought to read the whole thing, but there's a lot of theoretical work which tends to set out the significant points of its argument(s) in the intro + conclusion and use the main body of text for detailing examples + evidence. in my experience, the best subject to get away with this in is lit theory - a lot of the central body of lit theory will be detailing application of the theoretical framework laid out at the start, which, whilst obviously helpful (in the same way that all explanatory/evidentiary content is obviously helpful), probably won't do much for you beyond giving you a greater sense of how applicable the theoretical framework in question actually is.

another way to make the process a little easier + more engaging for you could be to think about the sorts of questions you want to ask about the text in question. some of those could be:

what are my expectations for this text? what do i already know about this subject matter & the scholarship surrounding it, and how might i expect this text to respond to that?

what key things do i think a text of this nature must identify in order for me to consider it credible?

what am i looking to get out of this text? what am i interested in? what am i hoping it might clarify?

i think approaching nonfiction with a significant sense of a) what you might expect it to argue (and of course, a willingness to be proven wrong) and b) what you want to get out of it can be helpful in identifying which parts of it you want to prioritise. imo, it's better to think of nonfiction/theory texts as something you are engaging with to the ends of formulating a critical response, rather than a wall of information that you have to take in. hopefully this kind of approach lets you circumvent that concern about focus shifting - it still requires that you look at and think about everything, but the way in which you think about it & the material you deem helpful in articulating the response to the text ought to change a little.

i completely feel you though lol i find it incredibly difficult to keep track of information + arguments if i don't write it all down and i still don't 100% trust my opinions on nonfiction texts after the fact if i don't think i was thorough enough with my reading. i tried to read a physical copy of g. aloysius' nationalism without a nation in india the other month & whilst it was clearly so helpful & so thorough, i had to give up because i couldn't find a pdf online and i can't really take notes from physical copies. it's annoying but, like. it works!

SFW Romance ABCs | Mitsuo Kumatani

Minor, blank, and ageless blogs DNI. You will be blocked!

Mitsuo Kumatani x GN!Reader

A = Affection (How affectionate are they? How do they show affection?)

It’s very obvious when Mitsuo is fond of someone–just compare how he treats Hachita to everyone else–but he’s affectionate in his own way.

For example, his affection might read as overconcern, controlling, or aggression to others, but he’s a an intense guy. Those who know him well understand that.

He shows affection in quiet ways–fussing about if you’ve eaten and hydrated enough, asking about how you’ve slept. He’s the kind of guy who tells you to text him when you’ve safely arrived at your place and spams your phone (or might even go out looking for you) if you don’t.

He’s more of an acts of service type of guy. It’s easier to do things than say them, after all.

B = Best friend (What would they be like as a best friend? How would the friendship start?)

It might not seem like a friendship at all, or maybe you might think he hates you. That is, of course, until Hachita gives his seal of approval. (Luckily the kid likes everyone, so it’s not hard for you to get into his good graces.)

Mitsuo prefers people who are honest and upfront and those who live life under their own terms. He does tend to gravitate towards people who are more extroverted than him (e.g. Usahara), and though it seems like he finds their presence grating by his harsh words, he’s actually appreciative of their openness and tenacity towards their friendship.

Once he’s considered you his friend, he will go grizzly bear mode for you.

C = Cuddles (Do they like to cuddle? How would they cuddle?)

He likes to be the big spoon about 90% of the time.

D = Domestic (Do they want to settle down? How are they at cooking and cleaning?)

A domestic king. If you manage to snag this guy for the long haul, all of your cooking and cleaning needs will be taken care of (because the way you do things doesn’t meet his standards).

It takes a lot for him to settle down though, and for the time being, he’s content with his little brother as his roommate or living alone.

He’s the only man in the series that is single by choice.

E = Ending (If they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?)

Straight-forward without room for second chances. He’ll only break up once he’s certain with his feelings though. He’s the type to cut off all contact with his exes and block them on any social media that they may share.

F = Fiance(e) (How do they feel about commitment? How quick would they want to get married?)

He’s the guy that drags his feet in a relationship, where you’re uncertain if he’s just not into you or if he’s trying to make a statement about societal expectations. He’s not into people who are pressuring him into marriage.

G = Gentle (How gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?)

Physically gentle and emotionally rough. It takes a lot to break down his emotional walls.

H = Hugs (Do they like hugs? How often do they do it? What are their hugs like?)

He likes receiving and giving you hugs. When he hugs you in public though, it’s mostly to show possession or protect you from perceived threats (aka Nusumi).

His hugs are very firm but brief. They make you feel protected.

I = I love you (How fast do they say the L-word?)

Like I said, this guy has emotional walls that are heavily fortified. It might take him longer than you’d like for him to realize his feelings. I’d say it probably takes him a year to say I love you.

J = Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they’re jealous?)

Extremely jealous, and he makes sure that everyone knows it lol. This is when the normally PDA-resistant Kumatani becomes very possessive, draping his arms over your shoulders or grabbing you by the waist. Some even say that they’ve even seen him drag you away to somewhere more secluded before (and Usahara got his ass beat for blabbering to everyone about that).

K = Kisses (What are their kisses like? Where do they like to kiss you? Where do they like to be kissed?)

Hot, heated, and emotionally-charged. Every kiss feels like it might be the last.

He likes to kiss your tummy, and he’s surprisingly gentle when he’s there. He thinks it’s fun to blow raspberries on it.

He likes getting kissed on his neck and hickies.

L = Little ones (How are they around children?)

Looks like he would hate children but is very good with them (Duh, because of his job.). People find it weird that he wants to protect their innocence. He can’t help it that he sees little Hachita in every kid though.

M = Morning (How are mornings spent with them?)

He’s an early riser, and he is the one that makes a bunch of passive-aggressive noise when he thinks you’ve been sleeping in too long. (He doesn’t want you to ruin your sleep schedule.)

N = Night (How are nights spent with them?)

Cuddling. He doesn’t sleep until you fall asleep first, which is why he doesn’t want your sleep schedule ruined lol.

O = Open (When would they start revealing things about themselves? Do they say everything all at once or wait a while to reveal things slowly?)

He reveals things about himself slowly, which is a source of frustration in your relationship. It seems like he only truly tells you what he’s thinking when he’s decided to commit to the relationship.

P = Patience (How easily angered are they?)

He has a short fuse, but he’s working on it.

Q = Quizzes (How much would they remember about you? Do they remember every little detail you mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?)

He’s attentive to detail, which is why the ladies love him. However, he doesn’t care about half of what he remembers, which is why some may think he’s thoughtless.

R = Remember (What is their favorite moment in your relationship?)

Your face when he tells you that he loves you for the first time. There’s such a look of relief and joy in your expression that he regrets not getting his feeling straightened out sooner.

S = Security (How protective are they? How would they protect you? How would they like to be protected?)

He thinks he doesn’t need any protection and is overly protective of you. He’s more of a doer, so you’ll see him walking on the side closest to the street, always scanning your surroundings, and holding your hand in a crowd.

T = Try (How much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?)

To be honest, he really hates putting in so much effort, but he only does it for you. He’s always trying to pawn off date planning on you by suggesting your go-tos.

U = Ugly (What would be some bad habits of theirs?)

He’s too blunt, often offering solutions instead of listening to your rant, or solving your problems for you instead of giving you a chance to figure it out yourself. This sort of infantilizing can lead to serious issues in your relationship if left unaddressed.

Emotional distance.

He’s a horror movie snob. 

V = Vanity (How concerned are they with their looks?)

He knows he’s hot and has impeccable style. He lets others’ commentary speak for it though.

W = Whole (Would they feel incomplete without you?)

He would, but it’d take him a while to recognize that feeling and that you’re the source of it.

X = Xtra (A random headcanon for them.)

He loves Rob Zombie’s movies and music.

Y = Yuck (What are some things they wouldn’t like, either in general or in a partner?)

One way to get under Kumatani’s skin is to get into an argument about cats and dogs. He thinks cats are superior but can’t stand being around cat haters.

It’s not that he doesn’t like it, per se, but it’s difficult for him to be around people who are merely existing to live within the expectations of others (which is one of the reasons why he didn’t like Uramichi in college).

Z = Zzz (What is a sleep habits of theirs?)

He’s a full on cuddler when he sleeps. It’s not just his arms wrapped around you, his legs are hooked over your body too. This is perfect during the chilly winter months and is absolute hell in the summer. Despite sweating profusely, he always wakes up refreshed when he cuddles you. He doesn’t sleep when you’re not around.

[ask-katima]

Welcome to the Master Post of Katima’s Ask Blog!

Warning….. it’s long-/SRS

Projects: Small Companion (on going), Katima comic (Discontinued)

Lucas/Owner: Example of text.

Hello! I am the mod of this ask blog and my oc, Katima! I’ll be mostly talking in the updates, but you might find Katima talking here too, take her words with a bit of salt, but she is like the owner of this blog, since asks are for her!

If you’d like to ask ME something, please make sure to make it clear in your ask, since I’m not a mind reader. I’m also autistic and have ADHD so I might not catch simple clues, you have to write it in bold red letters for me ;p/silly.

Please use He/It/Void pronouns on me! Any other pronouns aren’t really welcomed… so if you use they, I won’t really like it.

I’m comfortable with mostly any topics! However the NSFW or very graphic violence isn’t for me.. I’d rather not see that AT ALL! Sure, I enjoy some romance and a bit of angst, but I’m not that over the top.

Also I’m a silly guy who can’t tell tones, so please use tone tags with me, I’m really timid if I take your comment/words as pretty mad/degrading… so please make it clear to me that you aren’t..

Katima: example of text

(I also use the indented feature for her.)

Heyo! I’m the creation of Lucases wiiiide imagination… yeah I’m self aware…. To the point you’d be probably thinking I’m another human using the internet from your “earth” or something…. But in reality, I just know too much, research and am self reserved about stuff.

My creator just decided that, “Fuck it! If Ink can speak/hear the creators then Katima can hear/speak to me!” Soo, grumble to him bout that I guess, hah.. makes sure to insult him when you do so…./hj.

All asks are assigned to me automatically, if you’d like to ask Lucas make it clear, like he said on the top.

You can use any pronouns on me except “it”… I know I’m just an oc or whatever…. But I still have feelings and I hate being treated as an object/referred to one.

I have the same preference as Lucas.

Please use tone tags with me too, since I’m being puppeteered by Lucas it means that I, too am unable to read tone… but I am able to… if Lucas could-

Rules of the blog, asks and stuff.

1. No NSFW, at all! It can be romantic but… keep it classy and up to code.

1.b No heavy gore!! It can have some injuries nd mention of violence, but keep it to a minimum…

2. Since rule 1 is for roleplaying purposes, asks can have roleplaying text! If you’d like to continue the roleplay beyond the ask, please tell me via a comment or a private message on Tumblr. I’d appreciate that!

3. No slurs. That’s it. Nothing more to say, as soon as you write it and post that, I’m blocking you. And there will be no way out.

4. Fanart is always welcome! I’m not one to say no to some creativity! With that aid, any creative project present with any of my characters I’ll say yes to. You don’t even have to ask. As far as roleplaying goes… make sure you red EVERYTHING I have on Katima, and please make sure not to stray away too far from how she’s represented. Otherwise you’re free to roleplay as her to your hearts content! (And if they ask you who the creator is, make sure to link this blog/post.)

5. Please use common sense and proper grammar. I know it can be hard wording sometimes, you don’t have to send your ask RIGHT AWAY! As if in a race, you can take your sweet ol’ time writing it to perfection! Or even better, you don’t have to send it today! It can be tomorrow when you’re feeling better or something.

6. Be respectful of my time and availability. I won’t respond right away sometimes, either I’m too tired and aware of how bad I would fumble, drawing, roleplaying or sleeping. Please be respectful of this. (I am available from 9 am to 3 am mostly, yes, it’s the whole day. However I live in Europe Slovakia so we have to count on that. GMT + 2.)

7. I’m not a master in anything I’m doing 😅, so if there are any mistakes anywhere or imperfections, please either tell me, give some tips or ignore it. Thank you!

8. Please don’t ask me questions that are too personal/something private. Those asks will go unanswered.

9. This isn’t a rule, mostly a notice. If I’m not feeling up to it, I’ll recycle old drawings for asks. Please don’t be offended or sad, the reason behind that will be: No ideas what to draw, not enough motivation or I simply don’t have time for it currently.

hello! my name is ikaros (small name is vanilla!)

i’m 20 years old irl but regress to 3-8, sometimes very rarely 10-13! pronouns are she/it/paw/pup and i’m owned, loved, cared for and married to my caregiver/papa.

posts include text posts, edits, coloring, art, & more!

more info and dni under the split 🐾

i’m autistic, adhd, and have borderline personality disorder. i also have low vision and sometimes find it hard to read images.

i am an age regressor and pet regressor as recommended by my therapist to cope with past trauma, and i’ve been regressing for about four years now! i have been in and out of the community since starting my journey, but i was told that curating a blog and safe space for myself while regressing could be helpful, so that’s what i’m here for!

favorite media includes: my little pony (g1, g3, g4), pokemon, strawberry shortcake, care bears, pretty cure, miffy, bluey, cookie run series, sanrio, webkinz, genshin impact (f2p), star wars, dungeon meshi, & many more!

i do engage in padded regression due to physical and mental trauma. it is NOT sexual for me, and if you believe otherwise please do not interact. i do not post about it often but if that is something that makes you uncomfortable you are free to block.

DNI:

- not safe for work

- horror content (i love spooky otherwise!)

- kink or ddlg account

- demonize cluster b disorders (especially borderline)

- dislike or sexualize padded regression

- zionist or align yourself with them

- post about addiction

- support backyard breeding and designer mixes
