#I guess it acts as the how they’re going about this

[newtonsheffield]

I didn't even think about the fact that Anthony didn't act with Sophie. Is he really acting though? he knows they aren't really dating (yet) but their rhythm hasn't changed, they've just added a few more love languages to it.

they're probably both surprised by how easy it is to just say 'okay, this is real now, carry on'

I think they kind of are surprised by how easy it is to just… pick up in the middle of a fake relationship. It’s pretty much seamless.

Because they’ve already had their first date. They’ve had their first kiss. And it might be unconventional for that first date to be a cousin’s engagement party but they love their story. Kate thinks it’s funny, with the benefit of hindsight, that she was so oblivious to Anthony’s feelings but hers as well.

They had so many little dates, sitting up late on the sofa in Kate’s flat watching a list of movies she’s appalled that he’s never seen. Now it just feels like a natural progression of that. Anthony letting himself into her flat while she’s working already huffing.

“Babe, you know you live in London right?”

Kate quirked her eyebrow, bent low over her desk. “I thought I spied a red phone box out there today. Strange.”

Anthony tutted, straightening Newton’s bowtie. “Newton’s great, But he’s not a guard dog.”

“He was pretty vicious when he realised you’d be sleeping on his side of the bed, not just dropping food round a couple times a week.” Kate smirked at the memory of Newton sat stubbornly on his bed in the corner, howling at the ceiling while she and Anthony tried to sleep.

“He and I have discussed it like gents. We agreed on a double story dog house from Harrods. It’s still coming in.” Anthony sniffed. Finally he gave in and kissed the top of Kate’s head. “Please don’t leave your door open.”

“I knew you were coming.”

“And I could have been a home invader, Kate! I could’ve not been me!”

“I used to beg you to not be you.” Kate finally turned around, grinning up at Anthony. “Don’t be grumpy, Badge.”

Anthony sighed, putting his hands on his hips. “Ben wants us to meet him at the pub. Want to go?”

“Food on the way home?”

“Obviously.” Anthony scoffed. “Doggy sundae for Newton even.”

“Handsome badger and he has ice cream. He’s treating us Newton, not even using his frequent flyer points.”

Anthony rolled his eyes, “You won’t be laughing when we’re in first class!”

Kate narrowed her eyes, “You don’t need the points to fly first class.”

“They give the points away for free Kate! They’re just free!”

“I love you.” Kate hummed. Dropping her paintbrush on the desk and pressing her lips to the crease between his eyebrows.

“That’s a strange thing to love about me.”

“Guess I’m strange then.”

༉‧˚🥀🖤❀༉‧˚Black Moon Lilith: Your Feminine Rage (How To Access Your Untapped Potential)༉‧˚🥀🖤❀༉‧˚

Black Moon Lilith symbolizes your Dark Feminine power. She represents where you were silenced, but need to reclaim your power. You don’t need to heal Black Moon Lilith, you need to UNLEASH her.

Black Moon Lilith is NOT a planet, it’s a mathematical point in your birth chart that represents where you were shamed, or where you were robbed of your power. It represents where your potential got redirected into people pleasing. Let’s talk about how to reclaim this power!

CALCULATE YOUR BLACK MOON LILITH SIGN HERE!

♈︎ BLACK MOON LILITH IN ARIES ♈︎

Don’t wait for permission to act on your instincts. Stop second-guessing your desires just because they’re “a lot.” Start before you’re ready.

🥀SECRET TIP: Channel your anger into sports, intercourse, dance, or anything else that allows you to move your body. Also, you don’t have to fight everything. Sometimes the best strategy is walking away.

Your energy threatens people who rely on power imbalances. That’s why they try to slow you down. If you want to access your potential, you need to get comfortable with being the villain in someone else’s story.

♉︎ BLACK MOON LILITH IN TAURUS ♉︎

Reclaim your right to say no without explaining. Turn your focus inward, toward what feels good, real, grounded. Build your life around what nourishes you, not what others expect from you.

🥀SECRET TIP: If you’re stuck, give yourself more, not less. Luxury, silence, space, food, pleasure. Watch your clarity return.

There’s a quiet rage in your refusal to move until it’s on your terms. To access your Lilith here, treat your body like a decision-maker. If your stomach knots, the answer is no.

♊︎ BLACK MOON LILITH IN GEMINI ♊︎

Your voice is your sword. Speak, write, teach, ask questions that make people uncomfortable. Let go of needing to be agreeable.

🥀SECRET TIP: Your rage gets stuck in your throat. Try talking out loud to yourself, singing in the car, recording voice notes, even if no one hears them. That’s the release you need.

People will try to twist your words, label you as flaky or two-faced. Let them. Your adaptability is a threat to their rigidity. Access your power through contradiction. You’re meant to be many things at once.

♋︎ BLACK MOON LILITH IN CANCER ♋︎

Start prioritizing your emotional safety. Say no to people pleasing and pouring from an empty cup. You’re allowed to be soft AND have teeth.

🥀SECRET TIP: Let people disappoint you. Don’t rush to explain it away or mother them into being better. Just observe, and detach. You don’t need to make everyone else feel safe if they haven’t earned your respect.

You’ve been the emotional crutch, the therapist friend, the secret keeper, the one who gets the 3 a.m. crisis call. But when you need holding, it’s fu**ing crickets. Start tapping into your Lilith by refusing to soothe people who hurt you.

♌︎ BLACK MOON LILITH IN LEO ♌︎

Stop apologizing for being the center of attention, you were born to lead. Create, perform, shine. Don’t downplay yourself to make others comfortable. Step into the spotlight without guilt.

🥀SECRET TIP: Make something just for you that no one else has to clap for. Art, drama, selfies, music, projects, dance breaks, without the applause.

Somewhere, someone made you feel like wanting attention was shameful. But, your self-expression can heal people. Your Lilith gets activated when you celebrate yourself.

♍︎ BLACK MOON LILITH IN VIRGO ♍︎

Your mind is razor sharp, use it to cut through the noise, not yourself. Let go of perfectionism. Start trusting your ability to spot what works and what doesn’t. Your power is precision, don’t let it turn into self-criticism.

🥀SECRET TIP: Burn the to-do list for a day. Then see what still actually matters to you. The rest was someone else’s noise.

You were praised for being “so helpful”, and that’s how they kept you small. Power comes when you start asking: Do I actually want to be involved in this? Not just “Can I?”

♎︎︎ BLACK MOON LILITH IN LIBRA ♎︎︎

Stop twisting yourself into shapes that fit other people’s comfort zones. You don’t owe anyone your sweetness or silence. Make choices based on truth. Let relationships form around the real you, not the 'edited' version.

🥀SECRET TIP: Practice saying “that doesn’t work for me” and not filling the silence afterward. Let it hang.

You’ve learned how to disappear in order to be liked. But shrinking yourself isn’t peace if it costs your truth. Let things be awkward. Let them squirm while you stay still.

♏︎ BLACK MOON LILITH IN SCORPIO ♏︎

Use what you’ve survived as fuel, not something to hide or carry in shame. Own your intensity.

🥀SECRET TIP: Your biggest power move is telling the truth instead of keeping the upper hand. Vulnerability is not weakness when it’s a choice. Also, don’t wait until you explode. Let people know where the line is, and say it like you mean it.

You’re magnetic because you hold things back, but that can become a prison if you never let anyone in. You don’t have to test people to know they’ll fail. Let them try, then walk away clean.

♐︎ BLACK MOON LILITH IN SAGITTARIUS ♐︎

Stop shrinking your truth to make it easier to digest. Say the hard thing. Leave when it’s time. Your freedom is non-negotiable. You lead by living out loud.

🥀SECRET TIP: Boredom is a red flag. If you feel trapped, don’t wait for permission, plot your exit. Even planning the next adventure can keep your fire alive.

Don’t water down your wisdom to make it “palatable.” Say the thing. Burn the lie.

♑︎ BLACK MOON LILITH IN CAPRICORN ♑︎

Build a life that answers to you, not some tired rulebook. Stop proving your worth through constant output. Set your own metrics for success, and then exceed them. Authority isn’t out there. It’s you.

🥀SECRET TIP: Drop the self-control strategically. Let yourself fail at something that doesn’t really matter, and see what falls into place anyway. Also, stop playing the role of “the reliable one” when you’re secretly exhausted.

You became self-reliant out of survival, now you don’t know how to ask for help without feeling weak. External success is great, but tapping into your Lilith means developing INNER AUTHORITY.

♒︎ BLACK MOON LILITH IN AQUARIUS ♒︎

Lean into what makes you different. Speak the truth others avoid. You’re not meant to blend in, you’re meant to disrupt, to wake people up.

🥀SECRET TIP: Stop trying to explain your vision to people who are close-minded. Build it anyway. They’ll get it once it’s real (or not, and that’s fine). Most importantly, don’t rebel for the sake of it. Pick a cause you truly believe in. Make it count.

You’re the outlier, and they’ll call you difficult for refusing to play by rules you didn’t agree to. Sometimes you isolate yourself before others get the chance. That’s fear disguised as control.

♓︎ BLACK MOON LILITH IN PISCES ♓︎

Put boundaries around your empathy, every feeling isn’t yours to carry. Use your imagination to build something real, instead of escaping. Trust your intuition, but don’t let it be used against you.

🥀SECRET TIP: Intuition is a muscle. Stop doubting it every time someone else sounds more confident.

You’ve been romanticized, underestimated, emotionally siphoned. Start tracking when your energy dips around certain people. That’s your signal to pull back, not push through.

sometimes when I'm bored I'll click on random marauders era fics with Severus tagged in them and read through his parts - and every time he's acting like an irredemable cunt I'll be thinking to myself yassss slay! they have that boy behaving worse than Voldemort AT SCHOOL, you simply have to respect his commitment to being nasty. I sure wish he had acted the way they depict him - at least then he'd "deserve" to be relentlessly bullied 🤨

Yesterday, a Jily fanfic popped up in the damn Snape tag, and in it, they were clearly projecting onto Severus, making him out to be a total asshole doing emotional gaslighting to Lily and defending blood purity and some other crap, and I’m like… seriously? Like, you don’t need to turn him into an emotional manipulator just to justify James and Lily being together. They’re literally canon — they’re going to end up together anyway. There’s absolutely nothing in the books that even remotely suggests Severus was some kind of gaslighter and Lily some poor saint who patiently endured all his crappy comments. That’s just not how it was.

I mean, it was basically like "oh well, you're not like the other Mudbloods" and I’m just— what?? If Severus had ever talked to Lily like that, she would’ve slapped him across the face. Because if there’s one thing that’s super clear in the books, it’s that Severus was basically her lapdog, and the moment he sensed the slightest hint of Lily being pissed off, he immediately backed down and corrected himself. She was the one who led and dominated that relationship.

But whatever, I guess they need to inject unnecessary drama into every Jily fic because they’re the most ridiculously vanilla, flat, and boring pairing out there, and if they don’t create villains, there’s no conflict to work with.

And hey — nothing against Jily, I think it’s great that they’re together, equally boring and traditional and caffeine-free. They’re like Diet Coke or a sugar-free cake, you know? The kind of couple where you’re just like, ugh, I’d never read a fic about them — not because I dislike them or the characters, but because they’re the embodiment of anti-drama. Like, literally your grandparents after 50 years of marriage, both in wheelchairs, are a more interesting couple than those two LOL

Obviously, I’m not going to say what I saw or which fic it was, and I haven’t said anything because I have a lot of respect for people who write or make fanart — and even if something gives me the worst secondhand embarrassment in the world, you’ll never see me reposting or tagging anyone’s work. But hey, I can absolutely shit on the way people project onto characters — that’s always fair game lol

Really wanna see some romantic don quixote hc, don't see that stuff often

Did someone say Don Quixote. I’m alive speaking from the casket over here, ringing the little bell in the coffin to signal IM ALIVE. This includes pre- and post-canto parts. 

Don Quixote x Reader Headcanons:

Don Quixote as a partner is, as you’d guess, easily excitable. She revels in your time together, fantasizing about your adventures as two brave heroes who gallantly traverse the lands! 

Hand-in-hand, any new experience she wishes to rush forward will always be with you to accompany it.. Even if you aren’t aware that you’re going to be involved. Nonetheless! No time to think, for she’s devised a plan for your own enjoyment!

It’s the eccentricities and solid code of justice she upholds that are so charming, her lack of shame to step in when no one else would. And considering you’ve found yourself in a romantic situation with her, you’re likely well aware of all her mannerisms. Perhaps participating in them yourself!

I do think that she would do well with someone who either shares that energy, or knows how to listen intently and treat her with a mutuality. And in return, she’d listen to you a tad more! A tad. That’s more than the majority of the sinners can succeed in herding her, so they’re already grateful.

It isn’t that she doesn’t retain what you tell her or ward her of, rather that when the thought surges of something she must do, it’s an impulse. Most often it’s acting without considering the consequences, and it might take a soft nudge or similar to bring her back to reality.

But trust me, she tries to absorb what you tell her, especially if you regale her with your own travels. The imagery plays out visible before her eyes; you, standing tall and proud as the lighting hits just right or! Or! Maybe it’s more of a tragic tale, one of woes.. But fret not! You will be back on your own feet in no time, that she knows!

Don Quixote would not stand whatsoever for any slander on your name. Any rude comments, she’s practically scrambling to retort before you can even process what was said. It doesn’t matter whether you took it personally or not. You may have to defuse the situation lest Outis will need to strangle her back again.

It doesn’t sit right with her that people can get away with saying or doing such vicious things when it coincides with what she’s passionate about. She’d voice this to you, about how you shouldn’t tolerate such behavior. It’s more complicated than that, but getting that through will be difficult.

Perhaps.. It is just the more noble route for a knight to extend the grace of mercy and forgive, yes! That ought to be it! She finds her way around eventually, even if it’s through her own peculiar mind loops.

When I consider it, I do think that she would be quite good at communicating about being upset. She feels strongly, and voices that. And in instances where she may not, it is rather easy to tell when she is disgruntled or put down.

I don’t think all too many arguments would occur as she wouldn’t want to fight with you. Her perspective is more prone to mending when it comes to you. Which you might have to be a bit wary of. She trusts in you absolutely, but that also means not quite being able to accept you doing wrong– which isn’t humanly possible. So keep an eye out. It’s good to acknowledge that the perspective she comes to should be one that she believes. 

(Not saying this blind following would extend to blatantly cruel things that go against her definition of justice. As in saying you can’t just kick a child in an alleyway and give a thumbs up and go along the way. She’d have an adverse reaction. But if you’re with her, doubt that would be much of a situation you run into to begin with.)

With dates it's rare you’re sitting in just one place, but that’s the fun of it! Often they’re her idea, given it usually spurs from one thing she overheard through the fixer forums she’d read and wanted to try. She is motivated often by things she wants to do, but this doesn’t mean she won’t go places you ask. You just have to remind her.

Getting into her canto and post canto there is a lot of change to unpack. Learning that she herself was one of the bloodfiends she so despised, that the others were family, and what happened to her father is a major strain.

I don’t think she’d want to face or acknowledge you at that time, truthfully. You may be outright ignored. She’s picking up the pieces of her own history, and it’s distressing that she does care for you, that she can’t simply return to her family because there are things holding her back. (She does have other reasons contending for why she stuck with the sinners, of course, but focusing on you)

Her own self-definition is really being challenged, and with that comes another reason she tries to avoid you; with all her self-loathing she entirely expects for you to no longer want to be with her. She’s not the same person you believed her to be, who you’d grown to love, so why would you? She believes she has (wrongly) already figured out your decision.

Surprise. That's a flawed train of thought. Of course you care! It might take some expressing in your words that she is still herself, just as she was long ago, just as she is as a sinner. She still truly felt those things, did she not? And it wasn’t as though she was intentionally lying.

It is a rough canto for the both of you, but you make going forward a lot more approachable, possible. She chooses to go forward with the enthusiasm you’re used to, but so are you aware and appreciative of her more grounded moments.

She has greater control in her impulses now. Still not happy if people are being rude to you. But you’re able to talk her down from certain things without as much resistance. 

She was already quite loyal, but I think it’s rooted even deeper now. In a way your accompaniment helps her avoid falling into the blind mistakes and cycles of the past.

Not going to lie it may be a bit of an awkward subject to broach at first; being a bloodfiend that is. There is no easy way to bring it up, but highly recommend doing so in private. It allows her to be more earnest without needing to upkeep the title of Don Quixote.

Expect a lot of patience to be needed. Chances are she won’t feel ready to acknowledge or confront it all. She trusts you, she does, but it’ll take time. 

Ohhh I do imagine there is a great regret she feels after the LCB checkup event with her attacking the rest of the sinners and you. Being so overwhelmed with bloodthirst that you aren’t rationally in charge of your own actions is a terrifying experience, especially when it can come to harm you.

But it might prove to offer the window you need to talk one-on-one, learn more about what it is she goes through, and confirm that no, she is not some beast. You still love her, and it need not be something she deals with on her lonesome.

Though a lot is similar to how she acted in the past one notable thing is her more often fetching you things that you like. She acknowledges that you choose to remain by her side, and she is very deeply appreciative of it. So rather than scrounging around fixer catalogues to find things she wants, she'll try and figure out what you'd want as well. Now how accurate that is to your actual tastes is... debatable. its the thought that counts, right?

I feel like some people underestimate how much of a daredevil Daredevil actually is

Like yeah it’s in the name you’d think it would be obvious but with the way some people react to how he behaves in Born Again confuses me…

Mind you this is the same Matt that upon revealing he’s alive to Foggy in season 3, immediately goes to a high security prison for answers and has to break out as a civilian WHILE impersonating FOGGY because he stole his ID. This guy jumps off of rooftops for fun. This guy is friends with the Punisher. This guy is a lawyer yet is barely in the courtroom half the time due to his Daredevilling. This guy told Dex about Julie’s murder specifically so he could set him on the Fisks and their wedding guests. This guy is so reckless half the time that his enemies know it and he had to get rescued from a dumpster by Claire because he got the crap beaten out of him after taking the bait from the Russians. This guy is hopelessly in love with Elektra and she’s perhaps the only person alive who could match his freak. I can keep going.

After the amount of shit Matt pulled in the og show, how is it remotely surprising that he reveals Hector’s identity to save his life? Or that he took a bullet for Wilson Fisk? Or that he’s hiding shit from Heather, Kirsten and Cherry?

Like there’s some very valid criticisms to be made for Born Again like the weak side characters, Cherry, the strange pacing + their treatment of the Muse and Heather arc, but I feel as though a lot of people watching the show just forgot the original because he’s way TAMER in DDBA yet with the Ayala trial especially people are freaking out over shit that’s 100% in character for him?

“Revealing Hectors identity as the White Tiger was so risky!! Why would Matt do that!!” What’s the name of this show again I’ll give you three guesses. Without Foggy, Matt doesn’t have anyone to reign him in within the courtroom (although Kirsten tries, poor woman) and what makes him a good lawyer isn’t just his knowledge of the law but the fact that he will fucking GO FOR IT.

I feel like people think Matt is a whole new person when he puts on the mask, but no, thats when he’s finally allowed to truly be himself, even if he obviously has to play it up a bit at points, like when he’s interrogating people (although let’s be serious anyone who thinks he’s not having a good time when doing that just doesn’t get Daredevil 😭). His “helpless blind man” shtick is just that; an act, and whenever he has the opportunity to do something crazy in the name of justice, he will.

Unfortunately I haven’t gotten around to reading the og comics interpretations of them yet (I keep telling myself to buy some and then I never do), but I’ve seen enough art of Matthew “I only have enhanced senses” Murdock taking on people like WOLVERINE and GHOST RIDER for me to confidently say that I doubt that version of him is much different.

It’s like people want their protagonists to be perfect so badly that their core character traits get treated as if they’re flaws in the writing. Daredevil is a daredevil and that’s what makes him so fun and so nail biting to watch because OH MY GOD MATT WHAT ARE YOU DOOINGGGG YOU’RE GONNA GET YOURSELF KILLEDDDDD

I rest my case

[0viraptoraskblog]

So, Do you think that usually Fox has people to kidnap us for him and take us to that place, or did he act alone because it's more 'fun', etc? He seems to be that kind of busy man so I don't know if he would always have time to search for new victims, although it would be so interesting, I think I read something like that in his bio in the game, but I don't remember now. It's been so long since I played it

Also, you think there's still someone above him? I mean, someone that he answers to? I guess probably not. I think if there was, he couldn't have just shut down his stream, 'just like that'.

(Seriously, I know tpof came out a few years ago now but it's still hard for me to know that Ren, OUR Ren has risen so high in life. The guy must be rich as hell, richer than Strade once was, and that he alsos runs some kind of human trafficking shit? In underground? He was such a sweet baby in the first and second game lmao)

What places does he frequent now and what hobbies might he possibly have picked up besides anime stuff in all those years? I would love to see some of your headcanons ^^

Well first— there’s no one above him. Fox is the man in charge. He built himself up from the ground; everyone there answers to him in some way.

Every decision does go through him, but he has people to carry out jobs. He won’t risk going out to kidnap people himself on the regular. He scouts people out, does a background check on them (basically stalking. He has online programs/helpers who scour the internet to find everything about that person. This determines if they’re a good candidate, if they have close people who will search for them, and where they will be at certain times a day. Like, where they work for example.) After he approves of a target, he sends a couple of his workers to retrieve them. On the off chance they get caught, Fox’s role and business are not revealed and remain unaffected.

Sometimes if someone is an easy target he may go get them himself, for the fun of it. But it’s more rare now that he needs to preserve his secret life and guard his identity.

He has tons of workers, guards, and medics working for him. His business is perfectly structured, and he prides himself on that. I think all of his employees have a great deal of respect for him, and might even fear him a little— which he likes. It helps keep their obedience; but they also get paid big money for sure.

Outside of work, we know he still has many of the same interests— anime especially. I don’t think he’s picked up and new hobbies that he’s stuck with. The ones from his past were good enough to keep.

As for places he frequents, I can see him going to coffee shops occasionally to unwind. He likes having calm mundane places to separate him from his work sometimes, since his job can be stressful. I think he’d be the type to go to bakeries to try new foods/deserts, because it inspires him to make new recipes. He still likes to cook, even now. And of course, how could we forget.. bath and body works. He has spent an unbelievable amount of money in that place. Hair salons too. He takes fur care very seriously, and buys only the best quality products :)

OMG YK THE TOXIC ENHA AND TOXIC READER ONE PLS I BEG U GO INTO DETAIL ABOUT JUNGWONS PART PLS MAN

:)

Jungwon is “calm” but he’s lowkey scary. He’s not yelling or throwing things, but he knows exactly how to say something that ruins your whole mood for the rest of the day. He’s calculated with it too. He doesn’t act out, he plans it. He’ll let things wait out until you’re the one spiralling, then hit you with a “why are you acting like this?”

He’s the type to make you second guess if you're actually mad or just overreacting.

The worst part? Half the time, you are overreacting because you know exactly what he's doing.

But You? Youre just as bad. you know how to play along. you are petty with a smile and you'll say things that seem sweet on the surface but cut deep if you know what you're really saying. You won’t yell either you hit him where it hurts emotionally. Real calm, real sweet, real evil.

It’s like a psychological tennis match. Back and forth. Who can hit harder without raising their voice.

But no matter how bad it gets, it ends in sex. That’s the reset button. It’s not even about love at that point. They’ll be in the middle of a standoff, saying shit they shouldn’t say, and then suddenly it’s dead silent just heavy breathing and eye contact and next thing you know they’re all over each other.

[poetryqueer]

maybe framing the diss. through being a discourse of elite men will save it. perhaps.

[iwaasfairy]

rambly rant in the aftermath of this whole situation. I wasn’t gonna say anything because I didn’t have anything new or smart to say

but now I really wanna implore my followers to think critically in light of tumblr “drama”. because it’s dangerous. inflammatory posts are so easy.

imagine being called some of the worst words for one second, could you as easily defend yourself? even if you knew you had done nothing, how easy does it seem to convince an angry mob that they’ve got it wrong? definitely not as easy as making the fucking post at least.

I don’t want to talk whatever allegations. its not about the post of the week. its about the culture around drama, and free-for-all that surrounds it.

the lack of critical thought and understanding that smart, grown humans are able to give these situations is sad. past blind gut reaction anger and disbelief, do yall do anything with those thoughts afterward? parroting some talking head without thought isn’t insight. the people who make these posts on anon and think that gives them free reign to do the most despicable shit,

if you wish real harm, if you doxx, if you threaten someone’s life or innocent people who aren’t even involved - you’re straight up a bad person. the person you’re calling out may be a bad person too, but there’s no way you’re the “good guy” there.

can you actually think about what you believe in regards to the thing?

some of you seem to think everyone acts in service of you and your beliefs, instead of their own reasons and beliefs.

I know angry people are gonna start shit bc you have the critical reading skills of a goldfish so again, this isn’t a judgement about the situations that have cropped up in dc spheres last few days. I can’t say anything that hasn’t been said before. It’s about how y’all react to it. Drama isn’t an excuse to become a horrible person for a few days. And if you take any chance to publicly act like a shitty person, maybe you just are a shitty person.

It shows that most of you have no fucking clue of what you’re talking about. Publicly airing your problem w someone isn’t public service.

we all understand that a subjective bad interaction isn’t proof. it doesn’t criminalise someone to be shit person to talk to, but that’s 90% of the rbs.

If you have a gripe with someone, you talk about it in private, or to friends, or block them. And if you’re gonna call someone out, make sure you can line up the facts. Not assumptions.

The vagueness is so distasteful. If you don’t have enough fact to label them with that word publicly, maybe mind your business and dislike the person in quiet. no one said you’re not allowed to dislike someone.

have some fucking class. unless you’ve made sure that what you’re saying in the Whole truth, it probably isn’t. it’s your belief, and your belief isn’t any more important or right than anyone else’s. so many of you are seriously, seriously embarrassing. good job doing absolutely nothing for the betterment of anyone.

I know I need to say something but goddamn nothing sucks worse than having to tell people that your pathetic ass needs help and attention when everyone is busy with their lives and also struggling and having problems like holy fuck it feels selfish. like here let me put an extra huge lead weight in your chest. they need to put me down like a sick horse

[cigarettedolly13]

ATP I feel like no matter who wins this election shit is still gonna get pretty bad because what the fuck is going on with the DNC? Why is Israel like…the hill these people are willing to die on? I don’t get it. It would only benefit them politically to support an arms embargo on Israel I mean most of us don’t want our money going to fund wars anyway, and I mean it could EASILY make them actually look better than Trump considering Trump unconditionally supports Israel and is Netanyahu’s favorite candidate. Why are the democrats insisting on staying pro war and being pro military and all that shit when they know we’re sick and tired of them blowing all our tax money on wars? I mean can they not get money from anywhere besides AIPAC??? Can they not just like…like why do they wanna be Hillary Clinton and her stupid husband so bad???? And not to mention all that shit about them not even let a Palestinian speak at the fucking DNC stage??? The person who wanted to speak wasn’t even against the democrats and would’ve only brought attention and humanity to the Palestinians who’ve been suffering for the past 10 months, I did read the speech btw she uploaded it online in case anyone else wanted to read it, BUT YEAH! I’m just so fucking frustrated and sick of this fucking government refusing to listen or work with progressives or pro Palestine activists. Was spending the last 20 fucking years terrorizing Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, and others for oil just not enough?????? Why do we need to keep having these endless fucking wars? There’s no fucking reason for this other than the US government on both sides, red and blue are bloodthirsty egomaniac greedy bastards. I’m tired of this. And those motherfuckers making fun of dead Palestinians will NOT see the gates of Heaven. I am not even religious but lord if there’s a heaven they’re not walking through the gates. They will show up at the gates of Heaven and fall through the trap door to the other side (okay maybe that won’t happen but still) I’m just disgusted by these people, and no I don’t think Trump should be president either btw I think Republicans are just as guilty and cartoonishly evil considering Reagan was the reason a lot of this mess started in the first place and they hate everybody anyway. But like…this is just frustrating. I hate seeing the Overton window shift further right in real time. If I wanted to go back to the Bush era I would build a goddamn Time Machine and hop my ass back to the year 2001, I’ll even bring my low rise jeans and baby tees so I can fit in while I watch Bush ruin the country. I’m just…

Sorry if this is overstepping or anything but I saw your question in the tags of a post(the one about white people and reblogging poc posts) and I wanted to give my 2 cents ok it if that's ok(sorry again if it's rude)

So while it is appreciated that you do agree with OP and are adding something to the conversation, most times serious posts about racism are meant to serve as a beacon for poc, to bring attention to issues that were facing or that white people may be causing. By adding a white voice in there, even if it's agreeing it does take away some focus from the poc perspective on the issue in favor of a white person's perspective. It's unfortunate, and sometimes you can bring up a good point or raise awareness, but usually it's a good idea to do so on a separate post, or a post designated for both poc and white perspectives rather than a post made for poc experiences.

Sorry a final time, I hope this made sense? Either way ur question is valid and I hope this was at least kinda helpful!

This makes sense, and I really appreciate your taking the time to explain your perspective. Please don’t apologize for engaging in a productive discussion with me, I’m really just surprised that anyone read the tags at all 😂

I guess my question really should have been more focused on whether or not this still holds true if the commentary is in the tags of the post, because I always perceive the tags of a post as separate to the post itself. Like I treat tags like I might treat annotating a text - I’m drawing connections or notating where my personal experiences line up with what’s in the post. It’s almost like I’m talking to myself, and people can read them if they want but they also aren’t meant to be for anyone as much as they are meant for me to kind of process what I was reading and sometimes to signal to the OP that I was listening. And I put that in the tags specifically so that it doesn’t have to travel with the post if it ever gets reblogged from me.

But it occurred to me while reading the original post that I might be treating tags very differently than other people, and I wasn’t sure how that matched up with the post. And I don’t know how much of that is just my Autism manifesting in a way where I have misinterpreted the way this tool is meant to be used, or how much of this is my AuDHD having to process all of my thoughts to other people in order for me to understand them, or how much of this is just internalized white supremacy culture making me think I’m entitled to a part of the discussion.

TLDR; Do other people consider tags to be a part of the conversation? Or do other people consider tags to be independent of the conversation unless otherwise stated (like with ‘prev tags’ descriptors)? Or is there some other third thing?

so whenever DDVAU comes out I screenshot everything that makes my brain itch and then send it to my friends with an explanation of why the particular bit makes me happy and I was looking through my scrumped list and I was like “oh wait, artists (@kitsuneisi and @xmaruu11 in this case) actually like knowing what people think and like about your art especially specific details maybe possible perhaps” so I’m being brave and pasting exactly what I said to my friends into here with no rewriting for the sake of keeping them as my raw thoughts. Let the post go where it does I guess (all art is from DDVAU if that wasn’t obvious)

Favourite faces collection (impeccable art style that I will never stop complimenting oh my god I love all of the lil fellas)

I like the little pinky/yellow tones or tint or smth it all seems so peaceful and domestic and a little warm and it’ll be absolutely fine and lovely and sweet slice of life for the whole comic right? right? right? right? right? right?

Already said I love how they’ve designed speaking over. It’s just so effortless and clear idk. Also little note of appreciation for grian’s hand, that’s a shitfuckery perspective and a very well drawn hand. Also really realistic and fluid pose?? They’re just incredibly believable characters and movements, sometimes I genuinely forget they’re still frames and not an animation when I think about it. Do you think they actually pose and use that as a reference or do they just know exactly who their blorbos are and how they present themselves without actually acting it out???? Geniuses. Geni-i. Like octopi but. ok I’ll leave I know when I’m not wanted

Look at this happy and relaxed guy with his cousin he’s so himself and at ease. Seeing grian happy and human and totally himself means so much to me (favourite faces collection)

Oh he could be a father so good I don’t usually see things and go “they’re parental potential”, not because they wouldn’t, it just isn’t something that crosses my mind. He, however, would make a great father and this frame made that thought fizz into my head

Thoroughly enjoyable section, made me smile

Love love LOVE how the thing grips the actual corner of his comic panel as it drags itself forwards

I’ve never not been in awe of this comic, but this is one of those times I’m especially in awe. Hi. Hello. Hi.

Love how the room zoom out was used, he looks so isolated and quietly afraid even though you don’t see his face, especially with the speech bubbles drifting around like that. Very well designed top tier 10/10
