friend wanted to see my tumblr, and when i told him i can’t show it to him bc it’s basically my personal diary he went “oh so I can’t see it but a bunch of strangers on tumblr can??” he literally does not get me. no one will get me like the people in my phone get me
#It’s just so different#even though it’s public it still feels secret and safe. i feel comfy sharing a lot more on here than I do in my actual day to day life lol#in my head I’m also just speaking to myself 90% of the time which helps#if a friend off tumblr saw my thoughts I’d feel so weird ab it#esp bc they might get the vagueposting about certain situations and tell mutual friends#no thank u. this is for me. I’m not about to start censoring my thoughts bc someone I know knows my tumblr#u guys literally saw me have LIVE BREAKDOWNS#meanwhile I’ll have the worst fucking day in history and tell no one about it. I’m already cripplingly private but way more so in real life#this is basically a low stress journaling outlet for me. it’s so important for me to maintain the separation#like this is actually my diary & has been so handy for letting out emotions / articulating thoughts / staying on track !!#& I’ve met so many kind people on here who actually get me. which is so hard to find irl bc I’m surrounded by pre-med gunners/overachievers#who are by standard not very good w emotion & can be competitive/judgmental. or at least it’s hard for me to be vulnerable in front of them#and I’m part of that crowd so I reserve my emotions only to a handful of very close friends#it’s nice to hop on here and express negative emotions!! or positive emotions!! just whatever I want and it’s low stress and people get me#I don’t have to worry about judgment or competitiveness etc etc#like everyone on here is so kind & nice & understanding. & just a breath of fresh air from the types I run w. it’s just nice to have this#so idk that’s why I think I’ll always be strict about keeping the worlds separate. it just works#p

The transgender contrast of loving your parents but also for Trust Reasons longing for an additional external authority figure you can count on more unconditionally to support or protect you that totally doesn’t risk becoming a kink
#my stuff#haha yeah i’m so loyal and trusting and will serve you unto death#this in no way is derived from the agony of being misgendered by my parents all my life#which is ongoing btw bc ‘there’s nobody we know that i trust to talk about your transition with’#LIKE HM MAYBE YOU SHOULD THINK ABT WHY THAT IS#MAYBE ITS BC THOSE PPL ARE IGNORANT CUNTS THEN#anyway haha what if you were my superior officer and i killed for you like a dog#what if you were my god and i followed your compulsion to kill and eat until you were satisfied#what if you kept me to yourself and looked after me in private as i do you in public#what if my loyalty was rewarded#what if i had no obligation but duty to you#what if you made it all ok

A dream and a nightmare
@blackkatdraws's silly!
i just want him to be happy bro
by himself not only with black, honestly i like their relationship but most of the time (i think early in their relationship) he always comes out injured or dead and the fact that he doesnt even care about his own safety most of the time just to (me thinks) make black happy makes me so sad/pos
i like the fact that they are being more cute now but im not sure how much that its going to last
#I made this on ibispaint btw!#the second stanley aint Stanley#its the player#its like a before and after in a story?#at least at some point in this one Stanley got to be happy and chill a little#tsp#the stanley parable#:3#tsp stanley#tsp fanart#stanley parable#tspud#tsp blank scripts au#blank scripts au#edit: NOT SAYING THAT IT ISNT NORMAL THAT HE IS HAPPY IN A STORY#HE DEFINITELLY CAN BE#im just assuming since i really cant remember at the moment if he was ever happy on a drawing without black#unless the ones that include black are also the stories the players are going toplay#wait-#hold on#WAIT#IT MIGHT BE#I THINK IT WAS IN AN ANIMATION??? WHERE STANLEY WASNT TALKING AND BLACK WAS LIKE: “why aint you saying anything?”#It MIGHT be black acting#depends in which part of the timeline of blank scripts we are in#Also im not sure which parts of Stan's life are up for the public to play and which parts arent#but considering black can see us (to some extent) its not really private#so that brings the question if black if being genuine or not#ok im just rambling now#think im merging my own narry a lil too much into this

ppl dont assume tom cruise is in the closet like they used to
Like have we lost recipes this badly….there’s an entire chapter just on him in the David Ehrenstein book “Open Secret (Gay Hollywood 1928-1998)” … Gregg Araki openly called him the “Rock Hudson of the 90s” in Totally Fucked Up (1993) … he’s alleged to have worked at Studio 54 when he was 17 … he’s had pretty substantial gay rumors surrounding him since the early 80s including more than a few that have made their way into my DMs from people who knew … everyone should read the 1999 piece “Cruising Cruise”
#for the record based on people who know people#it seems like he’s actually Out in his private life and everyone around him knows#it’s just not something he wants to share with the public#which is also why he hasn’t publicly dated in over a decade#none of our business to him#and that’s fair to me. I mean I think people forget that he came up in the 80s in Reagan’s America at the height of the AIDS epidemic#and after being raised by an abusive dad who beat him for ‘not being tough enough’#a very different world than the post-obergefell one we live in now

#this isnt vent dw!!! i dont smoke either i was just kinda going for some sort of vibe#i know its usually played for laughs or like. dark humor whenever ppl draw mascots without their heads and u can see the actor#but i always found it fascinating and a little sobering. ever since i was a kid ive always been hyperaware of ppl in costumes#like. even if i tried to block it out id be thinking the whole time 'its not real. theres a person in that suit who gets paid to do this'#it used to be an uncomfortable nagging feeling but now its like. oh yeah theres someone with a whole life story doing this. idk#i think when i tell ppl im not conscious of my body its like. im not dysphoric or experience dissociation but. at the same time#it feels like my physical body doesnt fully outwardly represent me..?? like some sort of costume#i like to phrase it as being a giant hairless mecha and inside theres a very tiny puppy piloting the damn thing#and the other thing is. when i draw my sona i dont really see it as what i /wish/ i looked like or how i want people to see me#its like being in a costume and just. fucking around with some sort of barrier between myself and others#plus mascots arent allowed to talk and i dont really. engage with other ppl in public spaces that it kinda feels like ad lib#i share a lot abt my life but ironically im also a private person..... i guess it just gives me some sort of control over my identity#my art#myart#my oc#sona#mascot#furry#??? is this furry art????#twinkle#puppysona#edit: had to outline it bc i just realized it looks really weird on dark mode -_-

Irrational fear
#you may wonder why wyryn wouldn't just make it extremely public to better find his kids#but I mean it would be the equivalent of shouting in a packed train station you lost 8 diamond rings#he keeps his personal life private nobody knows he has kids sides a select few

paul mccartney's really out there talking about "long aquiline nose", "beautiful hands", plopping on his knees to take the best angle of john's bulge in that paris 1961 photo, taking photos of john shirtless, talking about trying to impress big men in gym with his headstand, thirsting after intelligent, rich men with accents, bursting in on naked men, and many more insane things that i can't remember on top of my head; and yet this man gets accused of being straight. homophobia is real
ITS WJEHSJSUS GENUINELY SOOOOO. I think the only reason paul is successfully in the closet is bc straight people are stupid like. this man is really out here fagging it up every day and has been for decades. the fucking video w the silver heels and androgynous pink suit with a gigantic heel + stocking'd leg with a bunch of dancers dressed up as half man, half woman in the 70s is enough of a coming out to me I can't even lie
#one day I'll make a compilation that in my head is just called The Tome#of why paul isn't fucking straight bc CMOOOOON#it's just a losing battle bc ppl still call JOHN straight even though he's literally out here talking abt fucking men#paul who has a nicely separated private and public life and is never going to say hey I'm bi#does Not stand a chance I fear#BUT I SEE YOU MR MCCARTNEY I DO

#unrelated to my last post#also this is gonna be an unpopular opinion#but i’ve honestly made my peace with how taylor approaches her public politics#(i’ve said this before too)#i may sound like a cupcake right now#but i don’t have the energy to bang my head against a wall when i know no matter what i do the wall won’t break#and that’s just the harsh truth#i have trust that she is a good person and her actions show that and it is enough for me#she’s not interested in being a political figure or representative and just wants to encourage people to vote#and will speak up during elections or during pride month etc#and ofc you can make the argument that she’s so influential so she should be and i agree but also! it’s her choice!#she is political in her private her life and she doesn’t owe her politics publicly#people should focus more on actual politicians and presidents and world leaders whose actual job it is#arshia talks

There are plenty of things that stick in my brain from Our Life but none quite like this bit from Derek's route. During the waterpark date, he wants to be respectful
Then during the makeout scene, he doesn't need to be so concerned with politeness... so he gets to appreciate. And something about how he just stares melts my brain
Man has been showing so much restraint when he's so down bad for MC
And then!! He cuts the tension because he's a dork!!
#our life#our life beginnings & always#derek suarez#I don't know what point I'm trying to make here#but something about him taking care to be respectful in public#then in private and with mc's consent he finally gets to actually take it all in when he wanted to so bad

Jason is 100% like ‘fuck you and fuck all of your spoiled brats, old man’ until he finds out that Stephanie and Duke are both from the Narrows and then he’s like ‘.....fuck you and fuck some of your spoiled brats. old man.’
They form a club. The Street Rats Society. dick is an honorary member.
they complain about the upper class. they bully bruce for not knowing how much a banana costs. they unionize and cause mayhem whenever someone forgets to tip at a coffee shop. every time someone mentions off hand how expensive something is (designer clothes, aged liqueurs, cars, etc) they go ‘it costs HOW much?!? .... you could buy so many 4for4s from wendys with that,,,’
one time Tim goes, ‘I was middle class once. does that count for anything?’ and duke flies at him with a knife.
#Jason Todd#Duke Thomas#Stephanie Brown#Bruce Wayne#Tim Drake#BatBrats#BatFam#batfamily#the potential in putting these three together#people who grew up with nothing and then tripped and fell into the lap of luxury#*chefs kiss*#duke adapting to private school life after a decade of inner city public school#stephanie bouncing between a mansion in bristol and her moms 600 sq ft apartment#jason struggling to accept bruce as a man who does both so much and not nearly enough#both as a vigilante and a philanthropist#sorry i have a lot of feelings about this#all of them caught between vastly different worlds and finding solace in each other

In making my DC reading lists (full of comics i may never actually remember to read before my hyperfixation ends), I've discovered two very interesting back up features 70s and 80s DC comics had: The Private Life of Clark Kent, and The Public Life of Bruce Wayne. Both back-up features existed (although i'm pretty sure the clark kent one ended up more popular), and it amazes me these were written.
Can we do this again? Maybe expand it for more heroes? I would gladly read a full length slice of life comic involving Clark Kent. I might even read it for Bruce Wayne, since Bruce Wayne seems far more interesting than Batman. Hell, I'd read it for any of the superheroes. Slice of Life stuff with Barry Allen? Hal Jordan? Ray Palmer? Sure, why not. It'd really do some great blending of the superhero and regular humour/slice of life style comics, and it would also let us see some more human sides of characters. Marvel should definitely do this too. It works for either company.
#I can't believe these were real features#but they were#and i love that#batman#superman#clark kent#kal el#bruce wayne#comics#comic books#dc comics#old comics#private life of clark kent#public life of bruce wayne#i would read modern takes on these features#honestly#comic#barry allen#hal jordan#ray palmer#marvel comics#marvel

Vasco and Machete are absolutely adorable, your style is so lovely and you draw the softest beds I’ve ever seen in any art ever
.
#thank you!#softest beds is a whole new compliment that's so sweet#let me go off on a weird and personal tangent for a minute#I've always found the concept of sleeping very touching somehow#it's this mandatory resting period literally everyone has to plan their life around no one has the power to avoid sleeping#if you neglect it your mind and body start to break down very quickly#sleep is such a neutral state of being no one is particularly sad or happy or evil or good while they're asleep they're just logged off#sleeping feels nice it's rejuvenating it's one of the few universal pleasures every single person has an access to#and I find it terribly cute how people have different little bedtime rituals#socks on socks off various pillow and blanket arrangements certain sounds that make them sleepy etc#and sleeping next to someone is such an act of trust#it's extremely intimate as is sex doesn't necessarily have to factor into it#getting comfortable and going unconscious with someone at the same place at the same time that just touches my heart#especially if you're invited into their bed which is a very private space a person's own little nest where the world can't reach them#even if you fall asleep in public transport there's this vulnerability to it and for the most part people respect the sanctity of sleep#and tend to leave sleeping people alone at least in my limited experience#I like drawing my characters sleeping because it feels like I'm doing them a favor granting them a little respite#anonymous#answered

wait i’m new here do you think tom cruise is gay as a joke or is there something i don’t know?
Let’s just say the rumors and reports of Mr. Cruise’s sexual and romantic encounters with men are extensive and varied including more than a few that have made their way to me directly from people in the know and nothing he or his PR people have been able to do over the last 40+ years have made them go away
#also he’s probably not gay but bisexual#and it appears that he may actually be out in his private life but that he views it as none of the public’s business#which is true!
