Trippy TV, an electricity bill behind you ❤️

That does not concern me, as I am not the one in charge of giving the occupants' electricity supplier some paper slips and metal circles.

I've always thought you humans' exchange system to be rather strange.

[hannibalsbignaturals]

I’m in no way intending to be rude but.. does anyone else find some of the fan art in the Hannibal NBC fandom to be a little uncomfy? I won’t say any names, this isn’t a call out post. But the drawings of Hannibal as a super jacked out dude with a popped button shirt, a very obvious bulge, and Will is super skinny, drowned in Hannibal’s massive shirt, and he is, as one might say, “twink-ified”?

I don’t have a problem with smutty art (though some of it is cringe, I’m not here to yuck somebody’s yum) the problem I have with it is that there are real people behind the character’s that are being drawn, like Mads Mikkelsen and Hugh Dancy, if I was an actor and saw that i would feel a little violated 😅

And I saw a pic of the artist showing Mads Mikkelsen the suggestive fan-art of him as Hannibal they had made, and I couldn’t help but cringe on mad’s behalf. I think these types of things should stay on the internet.. or maybe in your personal private folder, because the NBC character ‘Hannibal’ literally has Mads Mikkelsen’s face, so when I look at extremely smutty fan art of Hannibal.. technically it’s Mads Mikkelsen because he plays the character, right?that’s what makes me uncomfy. And also the poor way that the character’s are being portrayed, Will Graham would never act like that lol! (Looking at you, twink Will Graham)

i just think we can become so absorbed or fixated on a character, project our fantasies onto it, upload it for everyone to see, and forget that their are real people behind these characters. I think it’s a little dehumanising.

Though this is just my personal opinion, my opinion is not fact nor law, nor do I claim it to be truth. absolutely no hate to anybody! If you wanna keep drawing smutty art of character’s, then that’s none of my business.

The reason for this post is because I want to see if I’m the only person who feels this way? And also to remind people to be more.. mindful of what they put out on the internet? Because as I’ve said ten times before already, there are real people behind these character’s, such as the actors who play them.

This is something I’ve only begun thinking about recently, like two days ago haha, does any one else feel the same way?

News flash!!

Silly little snipit of info undercut regarding SM in the au for the funsies!!

So Shadow Milk is a bit of a bully at times, sometimes messing with Pure Vanilla or just generally doing what he wants outside of the void (aka the mind space). However, he's not prone to fighting at all due to his weakened state (Thanks to Lily's seal), and thus avoids conflict to not damage his "vessel" whilst not wanting to lose the barebones power he has regained trough drainage after leaving the faerie kingdom.

Because of this, every being stronger than him is intimidating, causing him to be less mean to it and avoid it's presence. Yet he never admits fear as it would damage his ego. (It's an unlikely scenario in the timeline, but still a fun topic to tackle)

Tldr: He's a bit hypocritical/silly

[toucandrawz]

So, I may or may not have done a litttttle bit more world building, at least in art, for the retirement AU i mentioned on this commission post

So the first one was a piece I was Doing, and decided to add to Krupnyy‘s ref! And then I finished it because I found an amazing rake brush for Csp and OMG! It’s amazing, I love it so much. I think it was called the cherry brush where I got it?? But if you search rake brush you should find it!!

The second is Nik’s ref for it, they’re not really very different from their canon, I just use refs a lot and like to be really consistent with my colors. I might edit it a little, which would just be information like she n‘ stuff.

Then this is Krupnyy! One of the stallions he owns! I got really fixated on horses again, so the autism made me shove both hyperfixations together. They have a couple other named horses, but they don’t have intense designs.

My Story

Disclaimer

I do not want any witch hunt or harassment towards his family and friends when/if I reveal their username or their real name. I haven’t got a lot of screenshots of our messages. I do have some during the end of me talking to him and others. I may also delete the post to work on it more, with more screenshots if I can find them. Or, if I find this too overwhelming for me.

Also, if you have any suspicions on who this person is. Please don’t reblog this post with their username and/or their real name as I’m not ready to reveal it.

Throughout my teenage years to an young adult (14/15-19/20) I was in contact with someone who was in their 60s on Deviantart. As of yet, I’m not ready to reveal their username or their real name.

I started my own Deviantart account when I was 12/13, which is now deleted. For the first year I posted my cringe drawings and photos. During when I was 14/15, I started to Like The Beatles and the cartoon that they had back in the 60s and would favourite art and fanfictions of the band. That’s when I came across one of their drawings and posted a comment on it. I can’t remember who sent a note first. If you are not familiar with Deviantart, notes are like privet messages before the Chat function that Deviantart has now.       

At first it was fine, talking about The Beatles and different bands. Normal stuff for around a year like hello and how was your day.

During 2015 when I was 15/16, we got into an argument that got pretty bad. He asked me what year at school I was in and I said I was in year 11. He then replied with “Does that mean your 18?” I replied with No, I’m 16.”

He replied later with something along the line “We can’t talk anymore. Goodbye.” Again I don’t have any screenshots of our earlier notes. I was confused, why couldn’t we talk. Nothing was going in in a bad way. We argue about it. He blocked me, I blocked him. After a while we unblocked each other, apologized and continued on talking. This would happen a lot. We argue about something, he will bock me, sometimes deactivated his account only to reactivated, unblocked me and then apologise to me.

One time they told me that they had a dream about my trying on cute short dresses. I should have cut contact after he told me that. But I was an idiot and still talked to him.           

We talked on Messenger as well. He asked for pitchers of me. Not in the nude, nothing like that, just of my face. He said one time that he would get a tattoo of my face because I was so beautiful One time he asked for a picture of me and for a joke, I took and sent him a picture of one of my stuffed toys. He got mad at me for doing it and I apologies for the joke. I don’t have any screenshots of these messages, I’ve looked for them but can’t due to them deleting their Facebook.

We also did roplays together. Just silly Beatles roplays that involves some ocs of mine. However, some of the rolpays did involve some fetishes and kinks that I didn’t find sexual. So did some of the art work that they draw for me. Now, I don’t kink shame. If you got a kink or a fetish, then that’s fine. As long as you don’t push it on to other people who find it uncomfortable. Especially onto minors, even if they do have it.

Just after my 17 birthday, somehow one of the staff at the collage that I was attending at the time found out that I was talking to him. I do believe that one or two of my collage friends told them about us. I do remember one of them looking at my computer screen time.  They brought me into a room and asked me some questions. “When did you first start talking?” “Has he ever asked for sexual images of you?” One thing that they said did baffle me a bit. “Well, you are over the age of 13. This person isn’t a paedophile. Do you know what grooming is?”

They phoned my parents and I was allowed to leave early. My parents told me not to talk to them privately but I still can post comments on their art work. But I went behind their backs and still talked to them privately on Deviantart and Messenger.

I was pissed at them for telling the collage staff. I didn’t know who actually told them but I had my suppositions. One of these friends was 24 at the time, we meet in collage when I was 16. The friend group that they were in took me under their wing and we became friends. However, as time went by they wanted to be in a relationship with me. But that story is for another time when I’m ready to talk about it.          

When my parents found out that I was still talking to him after some months passed, they were so mad at me. Screaming at me, reducing me to tears. But after all of that, I still continued to talk with him behind my parents back. Being more secret about it and deleting our privet notes together. And, using other platforms like Tumblr and Twitter. That’s one thing I deeply regret, deleting all of our notes beside some last ones that they sent me before I cut him off.

One of his conversations with me was how I saved him from suicide by being there for him, talking to him. I was there for him when we would rant about politics and other Deviantart users. The fact that we lived in different countries, me living in the UK and him living in America. I would have late nights talking to him and roplaying as well. I would end the night by saying.” I’m going to sleep now, talk to you tomorrow.” And if I didn’t say goodnight to him, he would get mad. 

Another time he asked me to marry him, I was 17 at that time… Again, I wish I kept the notes…I was an absolute idiot for deleting them. When he asked me, I was out with my family and the phone I was using had terrible internet connection with the place that I was in. I didn’t reply straight away, I was shocked… I didn’t know what to say. I moved somewhere else away from my parents when he massage again. I do slightly remember what the message said.

“I’m waiting for the answerJ”

And like the fool I was… I said yes…That I will marry him… I didn’t want another augment to happen or them hurting/committing suicide . He was so happy… This was a man in his 60s, he was married, had children and even had grandchildren… 

In 2019 when I was 19/20, we had one last argument then I block him permanently after that because I have had enough of his threats and the way he was treating me. I then deleted my main account later on. I can’t remember if I deleted it in 2019 or 2020.

The argument was about me having an interest into Wicca and them finding out that I was in a relationship with my third ex-boyfriend.

Below are some screen shots of the notes that I kept from 2019. His username and mine are blocked out, as well as other personal information.

After some time he also deleted his main account but then crated a new one, uploading some if his old drawings.

Other screenshots

This one is from an email that they sent me during 2017. They had some suspicions that I was in a relationship and we had another augment about it. I lied to him and said that I wasn’t in one so that the argument wouldn’t continue.

These messengers are from Tumblr. I must have forgotten to block him on their. I sent him this message to him to him in 2020. I don't have a screenshot of the messages but here is it typed out.

What you have done could be consider as grooming. However, I do not think that was your intention or that you are a podophile. I believe that I appeared in your life when you was in a bad mind state and somehow have helped you. You did tell me that I saved you from suicide once. The reason why I left was the way you was talking and behaving towards me. You did not like the fact that I had a boyfriend at the time who you called a "fag" You didn't like me not talking to you for a day.

I don't know if your lgbtq+ views have change or not. I am Asexual, witch I have told you before. I am also questioning Bi-curious. You have your own opinions witch is fine but they have hurt me.

You called me a devil worshiper for having an interested in Wicca. For some clarification, Wicca is an Religion witch has nothing to do with the Christian devil. I did explain that to you but you didn't listen.

You threatened to hurt yourself and kill yourself if I left or didn't agree with you. How did you think I felt when you said theses things to me? What was your intentions?

I am sorry that you suffered from a stroke and I wish that you will have a full recovery. I don't know if you will see this message as well if you will reply to it. All I want is us the move on.

In 2022 he replied to the message.

Last year in 2023 I found out that this person passed away. I don't think I will ever forget his name so out of curiosity, I Googled his real name and found his Obituary. I couldn't believe it at first. I just stared blankly at the computer screen, my mind racing with thoughts. I couldn’t believe it at first that he was gone.

And that’s my history with this person. Again, I’m not ready to reveal their username or their real name. Not even my parents, my ex-boyfriend at the time when we was together fully knows what happened. Only my closest friends know and I’m so thankful for them taking the time for listening to me.

What I’m still conflicted on is dose this count as grooming? I do believe that used me as their own personal therapist but there is non-sexual grooming. I feel like an idiot for not cutting contact when red flags started showing up. That I blamed myself for getting in this situation. But another part of me says that this isn’t grooming. Other people have had it way much worse than you. You’re blowing this way out proportion.

I’m also worried about the outcome of telling my story. That people will say “Why didn’t you listen to your parents?” “Why didn’t you get the police involved?” “Why tell your story now?” Those are all valid criticisms. I just wanted to get this out of my chest. Again, I may also delete the post to work on it more, with more screenshots if I can find them. Or, if I find this too overwhelming for me.

; a moth js landed on my bed && my immediate thought was woah little guy I don't want you to get crushed when I throw my weighted blanket around so my plan was to blow on it till it flew back out my window but when I got closer it landed on my hand which. I thought made the process easier but then like 2 other moths landed on my hand and I then had three fuckin moths on my hand so I was like holyshitholyshitholyshitt so I tired take a picture but it was too dark && I gave up and put my hand out the window an all three flew out like. I feel like a moth whisperer I will not be sleeping tonight where did they COME FROM !?? They weren't even little guys they were big little guys what.

what is your favorite smiths song this is So important to me btw

DISCLAIMER i am a pretty casual smiths fan so I dont know that many songs, mostly the popular ones (this probably says a lot about me, i am embarassed)

That being said here are my top 3 (no particular order and also three of them because i am very indecisive)

"Ask", for the dynamic represented in the lyrics (I really like avoidance in (fictional) relationships i think its funny and its easy to imagine that to this song...) and I also really like the guitars sound throughout the whole song, feels light and clear and that contrasts with the repetition of "the bomb" and i like that.

"There is a light that never goes out", for how angelic (?) Morrissey sounds when hes whining about the double decker bus. I really like the instrumentation right before the chorus as well. in general i just really really like the guitar in most smiths songs... I like applying this one to any ship i like ever and daydreaming animatics of them in my head to this

"Bigmouth strikes again" because it is simply so fucking funny. Chorus is super catchy and constantly gets stuck in my head lol. again as with most smiths songs i like the instrumental lots (^_^)/

Woag I haven't posted art in a minute holy shit,, expect not a big thing but still something soon

Tempted to put all of the Artworks GGX 2007 scans into my queue and subjecting the oldest of my followers to the same approximately 172 images for the 900th time

Also tempted to translate the designer commentary for the Overture character designs too, even though I said I wouldn't. They're short. I miss working on translation projects that don't take weeks lol

What if I was a gay vampire who likes to write and has been living in my castle that I stole centuries ago.Maybe it’s in the middle of nowhere, perhaps surrounded by trees and you were some traveller (or whatever you want to be )and you see my castle off in the distance and you being confused/curious come towards it.You assume it’s been long abandoned because of the vines crawling up the door way and dust coving the outside (what you failed to notice however is the well cared for garden a bit off and how although there are vines all around it’s very possible and convenient to get inside without really moving any) you being under the impression that not a soul has live here for a long while.Turning the door handle you push(pull?) the door open only to see the inside clean and well lived in.Pools of light coming through the windows and you being foolish or perhaps just bored decide to go through anyways until to get to a door on the second floor and when you open it you find me sitting at my desk facing the door with a pen in hand and paper stacked beside me the only light being that which comes through the window behind me and the few candles I have placed close by.I look up and greet you and ask what you are doing here.

just wondering what you’d do ya know (:

AI in the world of Fetishes

really want to talk about this! Warning for some heavy subjects!

So when it comes to A.I. it’s bad. If you don’t know A.I. generated photos are made by basically searching the internet and taking photos from there and mixing them together to make a new image.

as a artist this is a clear infringement of copyright and creative licenses but the people behind A.I. are massive corporations with millions of dollars giving to them by governments and shareholders.

now I haven’t seen people talk about a.i. as much in the greater fetish community or just the aspect of the s*x and p*rn industry. (Then again I am new to this on tumblr and this in general) but regardless I still want to share my thoughts.

when it comes to A.I. generating images of people, you guessed it, the A.I. takes photos from already existing people on the Internet and uses those photos to generate an image of a new person. This alone is frightening, thinking that a public picture of yourself is used to generate someone else’s fetishized image or content. And now with A.I. Advancing faster than we can regulate it, a person can utilize some websites and make a video out of a single image from there camera roll, or edit a picture of someone with ai!

what can we do? Not much unfortunately, again this is controlled by companies with millions and millions of dollars. But there are ways to help. Separate yourself from websites or other platforms that use A.I. and refuse to follow people that use it whether it be publicly or personally.

AND MOST IMPORTANTLY!!! Don’t get confrontational! If a mutual you know is using A.i. even simply as a profile picture, talk to them! Any use of generative A.i. supports the industry (hell I was going to add pictures as example but that would be indirectly supporting it). And most likely your mutual friends didn’t know this or didn’t even know the art or picture was A.I. in the first place. Be kind and stay safe out there

what’s it like growing up desi in S Africa?

Oooooo! I loved it tbh 😍😍😍 South Africa is a very multicultural + progressive country - I never grew up ashamed of my culture or feeling underrepresented/misunderstood 😊

While we do have a few people who are not kind, as do most places, desi (or as we call it ‘Indian’) culture is very appreciated in the country - and many of our traditions/values/food etc. have become part of the overall national identity.

Like? I did not grow up around SA Indian kids, but… I was sooooo lucky that my friend group + classmates enjoyed learning and partaking in other cultures. My entire grade was invited to my uncles wedding 🤣 + they would celebrate Diwali with us. I was lucky in uni too. My bestie is white and she tagged along to the Arijit Singh, Atif Aslam and many other desi concerts+ events I dragged her too). This is not just with me, I was lucky enough to be surrounded by people who embraced all cultures.

That being said, SA desi culture kinda differs a bit from first generation or desi culture from back in Asia (idk if that makes sense). Since we’ve been here for centuries … we’ve kinda created our own identity? Most of us don’t speak the traditional languages, our food differs a bit, so do wedding traditions + approach to marriage. Etc. Tho at the same time, many ‘traditional’ desi values have remained - importance of family, worrying about what people think etc.

All in all, I can’t speak for others, but I’m very happy and grateful to be SA. I would not change it for anything 🤩✨

(ps. This is my experience)

[scarapanna]

To be honest, I ponder about Vanilla's prospects for redemption. Presently, the outlook appears bleak as Shadow Milk gradually recovers while mentally tormenting PV. It's a bit uncertain for me whether this coexistence can endure indefinitely. Now the situation to me looks like there is absolutely no hope that it will be possible to get rid of SM. Is Vanilla simply prolonging the inevitable or is there a glimmer of hope for eventual freedom?

Ooh I adore this question!!

In terms of redemption, Pure Vanilla has gotten the chance to try and get to know more about his counterpart, but he doubts it would be possible as Shadow Milk's too far gone in terms of corruption. And certainly is not letting go of his ideals.

The situation is pretty bad but hope is there, the deal has some perks outside of the loss of freedom, mostly revolving on Shadow Milk and Pure Vanilla not being able to damage eachother.

The beast needed a disguise to keep up appearences, while the other wanted to have the possibility of going outside of the void he'd otherwise be confined to. Thus, Shadow Milk can't break or injure Pure Vanilla..at least not until his plan succeeds. This due to injuries reflecting on himself as well, and any unusual change in the ancient would signal that something is going on to anyone that knows him well.

What Vanilla had originally in mind was protecting others even if he was going to take a burden, so he's pretty much stalling while trying to contact the others without notice.

There is still hope, but finding a way to get Shadow Milk out that doesn't involve killing/sealing away the other too is going to be difficult.

Jing Nyan

Yukong feels so lonely after her daughter left the house for college, she wants a company and someone to take care of.

She is happy to feed you, a stray one, and you officially become hers when she managed to put on a collar on you.

However, she is ill-informed about taking a stray as a pet and never crossed her mind to spay you.

Resulting her kitty to be missing for days, only to come back with filled belly.

On the other side of the neighborhood, Fu Xuan has this healthy fat cat, she foolishly thought her cat is so lazy as long as he is inside, it will be okay.

Oh how wrong she is that Jing Nyan is determined enough to meet up with the stray cat walking outside their house.

Imagine the surprise on Fu Xuan's face when she sees the status from her neighbor about the oh-so-familiar looking kittens.

The meeting started with both women apologizing for not spaying their cats, and ended up with Fu Xuan roasting the hell out her own cat.

Oh my god how did the cat get pregnant?

March was quite upset, she has a male cat in mind to mate with her purebred cat. Only for you to just have kittens with the neighborhood gang cats. And how the hell you got a female cat to impregnate you

However, the Express didn't expect the strays to keep visiting, and even leaving animals that they hunt for you!

The Express decided to keep your babies too instead of giving them away.

Now Himeko is followed by kittens who always beg food to her.

little things to add on to make this more angsty (i havent seen the episode yet so im just going off of little context)

fox/kitsune!etho hiding the way his tail drops a little, or his ears wanting to fall back so he can just play it off, being chill and acting like it didnt bother him

one of my etho designs has one side of his jaw almost completely exposed to go with the eye scar. imagining that etho finally feeling comfortable enough to show that wound to the hermits only to be met with the horror and being told to put it back on. when he thought they wouldn’t care

The in-character implications of etho finally taking his mask off in front of other hermits for the first time in 9 years and being met with them telling him to put it back on. Like this guy who doesn't show his face for any number of reasons takes off his mask and his friend call it cursed. Is that fucked up or what.
