Sometimes I wanna just sit down and like say "hey. We're making jokes here and I don't care if you think a band I like for fun is cringe and dumb bc they're white. Can you please tell me if you're making fun of them for being Cringe and White or if you're making fun of them for Being Racist. Thanks"

What I never understood is like... I thought we all agreed that past trauma doesn't justify abusive behavior, and that intent isn't as important as impact. So when the people who say stuff like "I hate all men" and "All men are trash" try to justify that by saying that they've been traumatized by men, I really can't get behind that reasoning? I mean, I can empathize with wanting to vent about past abuse, but I just don't think it's ever cool to generalize entire groups of people in the process. If a man was abused by his mom and started going off about how much he hates all women, we'd tell him to go to therapy. It's just so blatant to me that they want to avoid seeing the impact their words have on the people around them & they don't want to see how their man-hate interacts with racism, ableism, transphobia, etc etc.
Anyway, thanks a bunch for speaking on this! While I have not read Bell Hooks myself, I agree with all the snippets I've read through Tumblr, and I'll be looking up The Will To Change during my next library visit so I can become officially acquainted with her work. Thank you for leading me in that direction, and thank you for making such thoughtful, informative posts. You're a delight, and I hope you have a lovely week.
I think as well that often times people confuse venting- which is good and even therapeutic- with political and/or actionable discourse.
Person who was attacked, assaulted, and now traumatized by men talking about how they have an inherent distrust of men and at times wish they could live in a world without men is speaking from the darkest place of their fear and is working through their trauma.
Person who then takes these opinions and turns them into actual theory and pushes for this to become the new social norm, however, is no longer venting nor are they acting in a therapeutic manner. This is where it begins to harm people, and thus where it begins to be a problem.
There's been people- feminists, even- a lot smarter than me who have discussed at length the difference between the two. How we need to make space for one, but need to ensure the other is not being used as a bludgeon to harm those who just happen to be in the same demographic.

Blog Rules & Info!
HELLO I am Niko, tho I also go by Never and Cheesecake!!! He/they pronouns!!!!! I love UTMV/Undertale/Deltarune and that will mostly be what I post about and reblog, though I’m also into Slay the Princess, The Stanley Parable, Percy Jackson, The Owl House, Amphibia, Rainworld, Gravity Falls, The Amazing Digital Circus, Welcome Home, Warrior Cats, Wings of Fire, Pokémon, Pressure, FNAF, Just Shapes & Beats, and a whole bunch of other things :333
I LOVE ASKS!! SEND ME ASKS! Either for an ask blog or just to me, but make sure to specify. I do my best to figure out who asks are sent to, but it’s easier if you say in the post^^
Also there are currently an ungodly number of asks in my inbox right now so it’ll take me a while to answer new ones. Do not pressure me to do art you will be drop kicked
Absolutely zero NSFW, racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, LGBTQ+ hate, or general unkindness.
I am a minor.
I’m not comfortable with most ships considered “proship,” including involving any form of incest, nonconsensual sexual/romantic actions, or large age gaps. This includes but is not limited to Fontcest, Dreammare, and Frans. This means please don’t tag/mention me in any of this content, use any of my characters in this content, or generally involve me in it; I consider all of this content 18+ and should be treated as such. I will not block people exclusively based on “proship or antiship,” but on my personal opinion on them and whether or not they make me uncomfortable. Harassing people based on fictional ships is not okay, and neither is exposing others (especially minors) to sensitive/inappropriate content.
can you tell that I am sick and tired of this discourse.
Additionally, the above only applies to fictional ships. Any irl instances of incest, extreme age gaps, nonconsensual romantic/sexual content, abuse, or any related topics is of course absolutely awful.
I’m sorry for the serious stuff btw, this is generally a lighthearted and silly blog— just wanted to set clear boundaries^^

Intro
Hi! this is a Mannequin Mark rp blog. This blog is run by me, @dinofur, and follows my version of mark. Please refer to this post regarding important information for this blog
Info for Asks
I'm fine with NSFW asks — I'm an adult, I can handle it. That being said, I will not answer asks that are explicitly sexual.
I will delete asks that treat real life as if it affects the Regretevator universe, such as asking Mark about real life politics.
That being said, topics such as in-universe racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, and ableism may come up.
I will delete any asks that involve the killing, abuse, or torture of bees or wasps. For that matter, I will delete any that mention the torture or abuse of any insect.
You can ask me about about stuff, like headcanons, just please make it clear that you're talking to me and not Mark.
You can send asks in character! This is a roleplay blog, after all.
Text Guide
Text formatted like this is Mark speaking in character. He's typing like it's an actual Tumblr blog he's running.
[Text formatted like this are descriptions of something happening, usually something Mark is doing.]
((Text formatted like this is ooc discussion from me.
Lore
This is post-divorce, set during Regretevator, and Lampert is not Mark's son. I will delete any ask that refers to Lampert as his son.
General headcanons of Mark can be found in this post, but any extras that I share here will be under the #headcanons tag.
Connected Blogs (Run by others)
If you would like to be connected as well, just dm me and ask!

hi :3 (stares at you)
you found my blog (no way???) uhhhh i really don't expect people to find this blog but i just post stuff to braindump and get my thoughts out there into the world!!!!! so here's an introduction to ME
(●´∀`)ノ🧡 some basic stuff!
- hi!! my name is uauh,,,, actually i don't really have a name for myself on this blog so you can just call me whatever. triglycercule, tri, cule, tricule, mtt freak. I DON'T CARE!!! call me anything :3
- i don't care what pronouns you use for me, anything is ok!!! i also don't care what you refer to me as (sir, ma'am, pal, friend) I DON'T CARE TOOOO!!! i'm very open to being called anything + helps me to figure out what i like/am
- i am a minor, agender, and asexual x3 just thought people should know because im cool like that
- my boundaries... obviously the obvious stuff (no homophobia racism sexism ableism proshippers prejudiced stuff etc etc etc!!!) but overall i'm pretty lax about whatever (unless you call me several curses and hex me or something but by then i'll have contacted the authorities /j)
o(*≧▽≦)ツ 🧡 my page!!
so obviously what you're here for... what is this tumblr page even ABOUT??? well the answer's pretty damn obvious
the MURDER TIME TRIO!!!
(really undertale and it's aus but this trio is the one that i focus on the most)
brief explanation... the murder time trio (abbrviated as the mtt) are a trio of sanses (killer, dust, and horror) who are edgy and murderous and also severely traumatized. i really like to think about them a lot because i think they're really interesting and they get my gears thinking. i usually post my art, writing, headcanons, character analysises, rants, questions (all mostly about the mtt) and then other random stuff in my life that i need to get out :3
i might talk about serious topics like murder, abuse, toxic relationships, eating disorders, mental issues, and (a LOT) more. no matter how much i sillyfy the murder time trio at the end of the day they belong to dark aus with a lot of potentially triggering concepts involved and maybe i even amplify that. if you're not ok with that stuff then i really don't mind if you scroll past my stuff or just straight up block me i won't mind 🧡
i really like it when people talk about them so feel free 2 reply to my posts about them and send me asks and stuff like that and we can chat about these 3 GOOBERS!!!
(¬ω¬。) 🧡 other stuff
- ao3: micromacuole (i put my oneshots and stuff that i write on here. keep in mind i don't write that often but i try my damn hardest to)
- uh actually nothing else. because i have nothing interesting much about me,,,, erm.
(*^o^)人(^o^*) 🧡 tagggggs!!!!
tags that i use 4 my posts...
- #tricule art (obviously 4 my art hahaha)
- #tricule write (again for my writing)
- #tricule hc (headcanons. there are A LOT)
- #tricule analyze (character analysises :333)
- #tricule rant (rants; this includes short questions 2... really most miscellaneous stuff will be here)
- #tricule asks (because i was forced to at gunpoint by untitled29876011111 (THE GOAT (formerlly gshaewru)) (btw #untitled29876011111 strikes again has all of their asks/AMAZING AND BEAUTIFUL ART,,, you are always welcome here!!))
- #tricule rb (REBLOGS!!!)
- #real tricule (other stuff like things going on in my life and random thoughts that don't fit anything else)
- #jk fashion au (silly au i made of sans aus dressed up in jk fashion and being in high school. silly and fun and fluffy no angst jk fashion au my beloved (masterpost))
SO YEA!!! THAT'S ME THANKS 4 READING THIS. pls enjoy my content even thinking about it makes me happy :3

In Defense of Vegans
Tumblr media
I can’t believe I have to make this but after seeing how posts like the above still get thousands of notes I’m going to. While there are critiques of militant veganism I agree with as a former vegan, some people need to chill out. What’s aggravating about most people here is how much they hate vegans but less in the alt right conservative fashion and more under a guise of faux progressivism. All nuance is thrown out and people treat the vegan debate as a false binary of either eat local, humane meat or child slave soy.
I’ll start by saying I was a lot more anti vegan when I first got on this hellsite. Reblogging anti-vegan posts and picking occasional fights with vegans. I was a lot angrier and was letting off steam as someone who was a former vegan who had a hard time with it. Same with religion, I was a lot more anti religion when starting my blog due to anger at evangelicals. Being able to recognize how it just wasn’t my cup of tea has caused me to let go of a lot of that anger. I wasn’t happy doing it but that’s not a damnation of veganism or vegans.
What irritates me about how most treat vegans is that it’s often reacting to a stereotype or strawman of vegans rather than actually engaging with them. All these posts about how vegans are destroying the environment with their child slave quinoa, cashews and plastic leather, when being a vegan doesn’t require using that stuff. A lot of them are smarter than given credit for and do research what they buy. Many do eat local produce and use hand me down wool or leather. They aren’t just buying every hipster product labeled vegan. Vegans are forced to be put on the defensive and what should be a conversation about how no food is really ethical in this capitalist society turns into a shouting match and “no you” regarding who’s more “cruelty free”.
I can understand having beef with militants if you have faced bigotry such as racism or ableism from animal rights activists. But some people really are quick to hate vegans and justify it as woke or leftist. Sometimes, people won’t even check the source before reblogging it, like the video of that problematic new age hippie, appropriating Pacific Islander culture, claiming veganism is colonialism.
I think a lot of vegans get hate for being the wrong kind of neurodivergent in some peoples eyes. Many, including myself, do have hyper empathy and are swayed by emotional arguments such as documentaries such as Earthlings. They make one small mistake and everyone treats them as if they’re the worst even if they do apologize for it like @sobadpink here in the replies. Many of them do have trauma from the cruelty towards animals they’ve seen which is treated with little sensitivity by people who claim to be allies to those who are neurodivergent and/or have faced abuse or PTSD. While white PETA types need to be called out, many famous civil rights leaders have been vegan/vegetarian like Cesar Chavez or Corretta Scott King and people do a disservice by treating it as solely a white man’s ideology.
Being a vegan isn’t easy and a lot of people’s anger here is fairly reasonable in my opinion. Many are ostracized by their families, can hardly find any food while on the go and struggle with people not understanding or refusing to understand them. Correcting misinformation from vegans is one thing and then there’s just being a jerk about it. A lot of anti vegan people here are the latter. You can say it’s self inflicted but many do think they’re doing a good thing, even if the meat industry is more complicated than just “vote with your dollar”. I would be a bit defensive myself if people treated me like a racist, ableist colonizer who hates migrant workers the moment I mentioned what I eat for lunch.
Call me a bleeding heart or ARA if you want but I think a lot of vegans here deserve more charity than they’ve been given. It’s like this site, when it comes to this issue, is stuck in 2015 as I’ve seen vegans try to explain their side, offer different perspectives and correct misconceptions but nope, another post about slave labor quinoa or plastic wool gets made every week and gets thousands of uncritical notes. People claim those posts aren’t about shaming vegans but that’s sure not how they come off as. Even a lot of the big “anti vegan” blogs here have admitted they went a bit too far and have mellowed out. I don’t agree with everything hardcore vegans have done or said and I can understand why some who’ve been hurt by them may dislike vegans but I think tumblr is way too harsh and intolerant of vegans despite claiming to be the leftist weirdo safe space.

I just finish this three part video series about what TERFs say when they think that nobody “on the outside” is looking.
It’s over five hours long if you don’t speed the videos up so I’ll just highlight the most important parts- It turns out that TERFs are not only transphobic, but also racist, homophobic, sexist and ableist and encourages child abuse! Who could’ve seen that coming besides maybe everybody who isn’t a bigot, especially considering that Posie Parker was part of one of the groups.
“Carol Marinara” was able to get into these groups by pretending to be a mother with a son who’s saying that they’re non-binary just “looking for help” and they would say things like “isolate him” by taking them out of school and drilling that “trans is bad” into them everyday until “he finally gets it.” And if they kill themselves, “don’t worry. That’s not your fault.”
They also said that a lesbian wasn’t raped by her girlfriend unless “she’s actually a man, because rape requires a penis” and throws the r-word around. A lot.
And when somebody who’s named themselves Marinara for this came out to say that they weren’t one of them all along they started freaking out and one of them said “we talk in these groups because we can’t say this stuff anywhere else!”
I’d highly recommend the series... If you have five hours to spare And can stomach blatant homophobia, transphobia, racism, ableism, sexism, mentions of child abuse, and mentions of rape..
There’s a lot of trigger warnings but they go over them before those parts of the video.

welcome to everettes-requiem 𓆝
i am always feeding them the ugliest parts of me
Tumblr media Tumblr media
an ask blog for lotf oc, everette ainsworth, managed by kuni! inbox? OPEN!
hullo guys, it’s about time i made a new introduction post! and so, here it is! if you don’t know who i am, then hi!! as mentioned earlier i’m kuni, a 16 yr old they/them with an adoration for lotf and most of all, my lotf oc!
but that’s probably not what you’re here for, a boring little introduction of me. this is named everettes-requiem after all, so you must be here for information pertaining the ask blog and everette!
well look no further! under the cut is all the necessary information you need to know, including and most importantly, the rules that you should read over.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
CONTENT WARNING!
prefacing this by saying this ask blog will deal with some serious and heavy topics. if any of these trigger you then it's best not to interact with this blog for your safety, or re end of this section if you still do decide to look through my stuff! these topics include:
religious trauma
suicidal thoughts
internalized homophobia
neglect
emotional and mental abuse
violence
death
slight gore / blood
everything will be trigger warned and content warned appropriately! so if you still do want to go through my account, then just watch out for those, they will often be at the top of posts in bold. i want everyone to be safe, so be careful, thank you!
ABOUT THE BLOG + TAGS
everettes-requiem used to only serve as my oc blog, but now that my main is gone, it also serves as my own account to reblog and comment and reply to things out of character! aka just me, kuni!
i will always let people know whether it’s me who’s talking, or whether it’s everette who’s responding! i usually do so i using an em dash and typing out either name, for example
— everette ainsworth
— KUNI !!
even so, there’s a lot of stuff to sift through on my account and there’s bound to be more to come! that’s why i’ve compiled a list of tags that you can search in order to navigate my account properly, in which i will sort all my posts shortly. these tags include:
#everette answers
#pre island
#on island
#post island
#lore
#everette funfact
#kuni talks
#kuni reblogs
#kuni draws
#highschool au
#ainsley!
everettes-requiem currently is sticking to answering asks. thus, there is no set story, at least not one that has enough revealed about it yet. meaning, content will be non-linear and is based on the content of the ask. however, in the near future, i promise things will answer themselves.
for now though, like i said, the ask blog will be mostly answering asks! it’ll also involve sending asks to other accounts, and also responding to other accounts that aren’t just asks! here and there, there will be posts that reveal bits of everette's backstory, and of course some shitposts too for fun!
ASKS/RULES
while this is an everette blog, other lotf characters are also open for asks, as long as the ask has some sort of relation to everette. other ocs can also interact with everette, they are more than welcome!
addtionally, i'd say that more serious or darker asks are allowed. lotf itself is a book with darker subjects. though of course, there are some rules that should be followed.
1. be patient. you should ask as many asks as you'd like, i encourage it! but please dont send the same one multiple times. i have a life outside of my blogs and asks will be answered as quickly as they can.
2. do not be discriminatory (ableism, racism, transphobia, etc) please leave this blog if you are discriminatory because we do not want you here!
3. this goes without saying but no nsfw asks. lotf is a book full of twelve year olds at the most and everette himself is a young minor. it's just plain gross.
other than that the blog is yours to ask whatever you'd like! this place is welcome to anybody and anyone really.
now i know that was a lot to read through but thank you if you did stick to the end! now go interact with everette!! no promises you'll like the response, but i hope it'll still be fun for you guys 𓆝⋆˚

———————⚠️ DNI ⚠️—————————
Terfs/radfems, transphobes/queerphobes, (I have had enough of you. Why do you have to be so awful Jesus, it’s not like awful people don’t come in all shapes, sizes, races, and genders. I ain’t defending awful people. But trans people just exist and I believe in judging people on a person to person basis. I don’t think you are bad I just want you to shut up about it, I’ll always be loudly supportive of trans people and loudly a feminist too. So deal with it! Also I don’t hate men, why would i??? So shush)
ableists/sanists (like the people who discriminate against mentally ill people),
Tankies/marxist-lennists/maoists/north-korean socialist supporters (please fuck off I hate facists, and you are the types to argue that disabled people should all die for the glorious revolution but again fuck you we are 15% of the fucking world’s population and guess what I wanna live)
animal abusers/people who spread misinformation about animals and animal care, (I hope you stub your toes)
syscourse (yeah I don’t ever want to engage in it idc shut up this blog is about literally everything else BUT that.),
bad faith gender/other Identities (E.G BLM gender, transabled, ect.)
racists/xenophobes/antisemites, misogynists.
non-binary exclusionists.
pro-censorship people.
anti-therians/otherkin, (if you are it’s not a deal breaker lol, it’s just some of us are therian/otherkin due to plurality)
only NSFW blogs (like if you occasionally post NSFW your okay, if it’s less than 50% nsfw your fine on this blog lol),
MAP’s AND PEDO’s and people who like l*licon/sh**tacon (fuck off and stay off) (sorry I am actually anti censorship but following our most recent ban I’m being more “careful” when mentioning these topics so sorry)
Dream Stans (yeah I fucking hate that guy, I like MCYT but dream and co can stay off of here REAL) (I have always hated him and I will continue to, fuck off dream Stan’s),
anti-good faith xenogenders (yeah so what if the term xeno-identities is more the “right” term idgaf! I literally have no qualms nor problems with xenogenders, in my mind it makes sense because gender is a social construct and so why not have fun with it?)
And more to be added :)
WE ALSO BELIEVE PEOPLE CAN CHANGE AND GROW, AND HATE IS LEARNED SO IF YOU WERE ONE OF THESE THINGS IN THE PAST AND HAVE NOW REFORMED I’M NOT TALKING ABOUT YOU!

#Anticapitalism stuff (a tag that argues against capitalism, and trashing multinational corporations and a bit of environmental stuff.)
#anarchism stuff (a tag for all things anarchism)
#art stuff (a tag for stuff related to the ethics, discussion, or making of art.)
#music stuff (for all things music and music theory!)
#tv and movie stuff (the tag for film and television, kinda fun kinda sad! It’s good tho)
#anti-censorship stuff (a tag for anti-censorship stuff, and why it’s important!)
#trans stuff (a tag for all things trans! Includes dark topics, mostly happy stuff tho.)
#queer stuff (a tag for all things LGBTQIA+, mostly happy but with triggering and dark topics.)
#mental health stuff (A tag for all things mental health, let it be help or just memes or darker topics.)
#mental illness stuff (a tag for specifically mental illnesses, like anxiety or depression or whatever usually REALLY dark but sometimes happy usually dark tho.)
#veganism stuff (a tag for all things vegan, not recipes just ethics and whatever. I [pop] don’t usually add to it but poppie does ALL THE TIME.)
#disability (for all things disability, let it be activism stuff, vents, information, or just funny stuff! It’s a tag I tend to use for myself because fun fact I [pop] am not okay! Health wise lol.)
#punk stuff (A tag for all things punk, let it be C-punk, madpunk, neuropunk or whatever! It’s a tag for all things punk! Including art, crafts, sewing and punk beliefs and politics I love punks I am not really one due to a whole lotta reasons but I love them so much <3 )
#environmentalism stuff (Climate change, mass extinctions, greedy corporations and politicians, animal rights, and more stuff. Mostly climate/animal related but intersects with disability stuff, anarchism stuff, activism stuff, and veganism and punk stuff. Fun fact these types of things are extremely intersectional but are never presented as such due to infighting!)
#healthcare stuff (The weird tag related to health and healthcare, not a disability tag, not a environmentalism tag literally health and healthcare which is weird. Mostly PSA’s)
#animal care stuff (For all things animal care, I disagree with veganism’s doctrine here. Keeping Some animals and keeping animals can be done well and awesomely and help petstore and wild animals, but people who do animal care just absolutely trash just don’t deserve anything or anyone. It’s a fine line, but I genuinely believe if you take good care of your animals and give them an amazing quality of life I genuinely don’t see a problem with keeping animals.)
#animal abuse stuff (Goes hand in hand with animal care stuff, it’s pretty bad at times, it is what it says on the tin. Mostly also animal care stuff.)
#child abuse stuff (For stories, children’s rights, or experiences. It’s pretty dark.)
#youth liberation (for youth liberation stuff, it’s important honestly.)
#children's rights (A tag for all things children’s rights it’s super cool!)
#homelessness stuff (a tag related to homelessness and just all the things that come with it, it’s a dark tag. Sometimes happy.)
#uhoused stuff (Same same but different, more related to cost of living crisis’s and capitalism then disenfranchisement and outright just the sad reality that is being mentally ill and homeless or a substance abuser and homeless or trans/queer and homeless or any other absolutely insane and awful reason people are homeless.)
#communism stuff (For all things communist, I don’t believe it will fix anything and it is kinda extremely hard to get rid of monetary currency. But communism, socialism, anarchism, and punk theory are all connected in ways and have some BASED ideas and principles. So yeah that’s why it’s tagged on here!
Edit: I do not agree with communism; well Marxist Leninist, or Stalinist, or any variation of fucking facist dictators like North Korean communism/socialism or soviet communism and Maoist communism. Why? Because do I really have to spell it out they were facist DICTATORS, I do not believe a cult of personality is good nor that people instead of being solely valued on their money they are solely valued by their ableness which I think is harmful as shit. A lot of communists are literally tankies and for the death penalty and many other things I’m against including “making prisons torture chambers” “state mandated murder of people against communism” “leaving disabled and mentally ill people to rot because they can’t contribute to the work force and such are useless to the communist state” “stealing shit from people because it now belongs to the state” “forcing people into mandatory labor jobs with no way out of it unless they become disabled or die” and many many more! Communism can be interesting and helpful but in a lot of ways people drunk the “facists aren’t bad they are communists they are for the people!” Drink. And like I don’t believe in that shit, go fucking deconstruct your biases please because otherwise I’m blocking you, talkies fuck off)
#socialism stuff (I actually do believe socialism can work, it’s definitely not the end all be all of ways to govern/live life but I think it’s a good stepping stone to all different wonderful things that can change the world for the better, usually the CIA/FBI/US government appears a lot in this tag due to reasons that will become apparent. But it’s a fun one!)
#fat stuff (A tag about fatphobia, diet culture, ableism and just annoying stuff about being fat lol. Mostly medical negligence and malpractice because holy shit fuck is it bad in this tag. Also Eating disorders are talked about in every post in one way or another, it’s a big problem. Dark tag.)
#religion stuff (A thing for all things religion, it’s basically every criticism and deep cut anyone and everyone has on every single religion, which yk obviously no one literally agrees with anything. It’s mostly everyone going “QUEER/TRANS/DISABLED/WOMEN/“SINNERS” DONT DESERVE THIS TREATMENT IT MAKES NO SENSE!” Other religions “NO THEY DO” and it’s actually very well written and argued for. Also atheism is talked about a lot too, it’s mostly like a deep philosophical and ethical debate that has spanned literally everything and everywhere where it’s all boiled down to “yeah some fuckers deserve prison, but the average normal guy kinda just exists we guess??? Religious or not???? And there’s kinda nothing wrong with it but we would rather them be religious in some way????” And that is still the shittyist summary ever too. But it’s the gist of this tag. Also memes!)
(and where I put all stuff related to religion it’s very much a mixed bag i’m not making fun of anyone actually it’s that there is genuinely too much variety in this tag to accurately tell you what’s in there. It’s everything related to religion all religions!)
#autism stuff (Specifically for autistic stuff, it’s used from time to time.)
#activism stuff (a tag for all things ally posting, and human/animal/land/just everything rights. It’s fun!)
#food stuff (A tag about all things food related, sometimes recipes sometimes diet culture and why it’s bad. Sometimes it’s just cultural things related to food. Food is a big topic LOL)
#comics and book stuff (a tag about all things comics, books, and written works.)
#tv and movie stuff or #film and tv (a tag about all things TV and film, let it be discussion, gifs, or videos or fun facts.)
#neurodivergent stuff (For all things neurodivergent! Fun stuff, kinda happy kinda dark. Intersects with mental health stuff and mental illness stuff and disability tags. Because like why wouldn’t it???)
#animals (yes just for animals, nice calm usually no triggering animal stuff. It’s just cuteness usually! Unless I put something dark in there then sorry.)
#too queue for school (A tag for all queued stuff I remember to tag! Usually wholesome most times not. But it’s just a fun “today’s thing queued!” Thing if I’m not online.)
—————————————- Our post tags —————————————
#us-the-voices Cooks (a tag for recipes, food we make, and random cooking tips???)
#us-the-voices reviews (a tag for all things reviews! Let it be movies, shows, games, art, books, fanfics, whatever!)
#us-the-voices talks (A tag for like personal affairs? Or just “haha update stuff went DOWN in our personal lives” or just general chatting with mutuals who knows I haven’t decided yet.)
#us-the-voices recommends (weird tag for all weird recommendations of shows/books/tv/fanfic/movies it’s there it’s weird and if your bored and want something to do maybe you’ll like it lol.)
#us-the-voices rants (a tag for rants, don’t take them seriously it’s usually momentarily sad/existential/angry/fed up/annoyed/trauma dump RANTS. suggest you just block the tag lol, I will probably make half of these while I’m unwell and sick or just stressed and under all sorts of stress. So honestly it’s just a tag so you guys don’t have to deal with it because I will eventually be stupid on the internet and I’d rather you understand these are nonsense rants that are just a release of information that’s been annoying us.)
#the voices talk (A tag for talking about alters or specific things some alters want to talk about but not all.)
#poppie weblogs (poppies tag for her stuff, it literally has everything in it.)
and more to come!

Hey, hello, hi, good morning, evening and night to everyone who’s stumbled upon my humble blog!
About me:
I’m Endex, or Endy, and I’m a minor who draws (i join the yearly Art Fights yo)
I speak 3 languages (🇮🇹🇺🇸🇨🇳)and understand 5(🇮🇹🇺🇸🇨🇳🇪🇸🇧🇷), I use she/they pronouns, I’m armonatic asexual and a snow leopard therian
Do please note that i don’t celebrate special days like Christmas or Halloween on any kind of social media as I spend all that time with my family
I came to [tumblr] after deciding that twitter and instagram were both too “aggressive” (in terms of viewers/commenters), i don’t really mind the aggressiveness towards me, it’s towards the others that really piss me off. But still- let’s set up some rules in this blog to avoid too much aggression
(intro may change from time to time, sry about that)
Boundaries, rules and interested Fandoms are under the keep reading thing
Personal boundaries:
You may:
- use she/they
- Make fanart of my OCs, with crediting (as in, mention who it belongs to)
- Ask in the box about anything regarding my interested fandoms or OCs✨👌
- ask to roleplay with any OC
- Tag/mention me in posts (if it’s not spam)
- Introduce me to new fandoms
Depends…:
- use he/him, any other pronouns (you may get corrected but I don’t really mind)
- ask about me in general
- use my OCs for fanfiction (ask perms first)
- Ask to be moots/friends
- Ask for collabs
- ask to draw anything that may be part of the "zero tolerance" list in the rules section (I may refuse some and may accept some, it depends on the script)
ABSOLUTELY NOT:
- use it/its (I ain’t an object man)
- Assume my OCs are yours
- copy/trace my art
- Take my art and remove the watermark in an attempt to make it seem like you made it
- Ask for irl photos
- Rush me regarding anything that’s a WIP
Rules:
- be at least 13, this blog can have complicated stuff
- Please treat everyone with respect in a way you’d want to be treated (this is a thing instagram lacks. There were many death threats in the comments)
- Swearing is allowed, but please refrain from swearing too much
- This blog accepts ranting in the ask box, though please add trigger warnings for people who may be sensitive to certain things
- please, pretty please, no NSFW. Not fond of that.
- Absolutely zero tolerance with racism, nudity, sexually explicit behavior, violence, drugs, abuse, threatening and harassment of any kind, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, sexism, hate towards religion, anything else that might fit in this list.
- Some artworks may be exceptions from the list above (such as violence, or gore), but the profanities mustn't refer to anyone in real life
- Don’t reveal your own private information or ask others to share theirs. The internet is a wacky place, possibly wackier that the real world
- No spamming in the posts’ comments, as in, not too many messages. If you want to add something to your comment, you can reply to your own comment to avoid taking too much space
- No slurs.
- Don’t use this blog as a dating network
- Don’t ask in the box any suspicious links. Though if you’re planning to share a link, please write in the topic
- Please refrain from making jokes that may be hurtful (es. “You’re fatherless/motherless”, “you’re so skinny you could become a tree” etc.)
Interested Fandoms and favorite character (from most interested to least interested):
(for context, I'm a neat freak. Green = will draw about, Orange = depends on context/maybe later and Red = won't draw about)
• The Pink Corruption: HOPE (fav: Cubical (and Pyrahedron probably))
• BFDI: TPOT (fav: Black Hole and Price Tag)
• Sound Space (fav songs: Venturing into the unknown by diamond, forgetting was my only option by 633397)
• Laboratory roleplays (most used role: Scientist/Scientist helper)
• Sky: cotl (fav: Seed of hope and Mellow Musician) ((losing interest)) (((to clarify, im losing interest in playing the game, not the fandom)))
• Murder Drones (fav: Beau and N)
• Doors (fav: Guiding light and Sally)
• The Amazing Digital Circus (fav: Gangle)
• Dandy's world (the game, not the show) ((fav: Pebble and Astro, probably))
• JSAB in general (fav song: FOX by Shirobon)
• Rhythm doctor (fav: Ada Paige)
Custom Series/AUs:
• Demon Slayer (fav: Kyojuro Rengoku)
• Creatures of Sonaria (just found it, Phyremias are so cute but the creature names are so hard to remember wth)
• Incredibox: Sprunki (also just found, fav's probably Gray or Fun Bot)
• TPC: a Ray of HOPE (fan continuation of TPC: Hope)
• Sky: Trinkets (fan series with my friends’ OCs and lore)
• Project Kazenkoi (original sci-fi series abt a gosh darn parasite infestation 500 years in the future)
Tags that are likely used are in the tags section.
That’s all I have, enjoy your stay!
(Now before you say there aren’t any OCs, it’s because I haven’t drawn or posted about them here yet-)

could you explain more on the gypsy rose and guy who attacked the judge comparison? (how it has textbook ableism, racism, etc) it sounds kinda interesting but i don’t know what’s going on much
THANK YOU FOR ASKING!!!!
for gypsy rose its just rampantttttttttt 'perfect victim'-ism. i believe there is a term for the phenomenon but basically its like everyone will have disdain for an abuse victim unless they're dead then they're a statistic they can use for their own purposes. her mother was abusing and drugging her for years and wouldn't have stopped until she was dead but bc gypsy fought back literally at all and isnt constantly talking abt how she's scum of the earth some ppl are acting like she's some awful evil person and not an abuse victim who acted out of desperation. felt remorse. went to jail and is still on parole. and its misogyny bc we're living in a world that at the same time OBSESSES over and heralds male serial killers as ~geniuses~ that could outwit cops 🧍🏾‍♀️ its always 'women should be armed' and 'if i were abused i'd kill them' and then a woman gets rid of her abuser and its think pieces on how no one should be happy she's no longer being abused and even though its documented that she exhausted every avenue and begged for help and wasn't believed that there was 'another way'. bc abuse victims should just die in the court of public opinion esp a woman
and with the man....first the fact that him attacking the judge was treated as a meme was very weird and a form of misogyny like why is a woman getting jumped so funny? the racism came in in the most expected way. ppl talking abt how he should be put down, insinuating all black ppl are violent monsters/beasts/wild animals. just nasty stuff. one black person does something awful and that means the whole population should be culled according to racists online you get it. also when he showed back up in court they literally had him in a muzzle. and its like.............yeah that's definitely a talking point in a paper. and the ableism comes in bc ppl found out he's schizophrenic and all of the ppl who think mental disorders mean you're just uncontrollably violent w no control were like 'i feel so bad for him he was off his meds' and that's the juxtaposition btwn him and gypsy rose like she fought in self defense and ppl think she's a monster and he is defended despite not fighting for his life. and i believe no problem the jail withheld mental care but then it came out allegedly even ON his meds he was violent towards women but bc he's a man he will always have more grace and some circles of men see manhood AS violence esp towards women so theyre gonna defend that behavior or at least make light of it. and then just say it was his mental illness bc ableism tells ppl that if you have a spooky disorder then you're just violent and
but at the same time if gypsy rose was black. for one she'd still be in prison :/ so many black women kill their abuse victims and end up dying in jail :///// and if the black guy who attacked the judge were white they'd be doing anythingggggggggggg to make him 'redeemable' in the media. and the ableism would probably be even worse as a means to say the violence just isnt his fault! and if the judge were a man it probably wouldnt have turned into a funny meme but if the judge were a black woman then the leagues of ppl defending her would not be there bc white women are seen as innocent victims who never deserve violence (which fueled the racism he experienced tenfold) whereas black women DESERVE to be hurt for their attitudes. theyd be finding reasons to justify it.
idk just seeing these conversations happen at the same time just showed, to me, exactly how different identities preload different kinds of discourse!

☀️ | Reminder | ☀️
Tumblr media
I DO WRITE...
– Fics, Imagines, Headcanons, and more: omegaverse, alternate universe, requests, etc.
– Themes: fluff, comfort, yandere, etc.
– Sub/Bottom Male Reader, BLACK/POC reader, age difference (NEVER ADULT/MINOR), CNC/Dub-Con/Non-Con (light), domination/submission, family themes, domestic vibes, m-preg, romance, size difference, THEMES of abuse, etc.
Tumblr media
I WILL NOT WRITE...
– Graphics Descriptions of Violence/Abuse/Rape (this includes gun-play and weapon-play with minuscule exceptions), ADULT/MINOR pairings, incest/stepcest, foot-play, mlw, wlw, female readers or female-centric characters, drugs-use, infidelity (unless for plot/story reasons I create/approve), furry characters, piss/scat/vomit, Dom/Top Male Reader, etc.
Tumblr media
I TAKE REQUESTS...
– I take requests for male-reader only, with the exception of Gender-Neutral Characters for my non-binary folk (you are loved). You can check my character/fandom index or just look at my masterlists to see who/what I write for.
– Please pay attention to my request status on the intro post. Any requests submitted when my inbox is closed will be deleted. You may send it through a DM, however, if you want to make sure I see it and that you don't forget it. Just don't spam me.

LAST THING...
– My works are aimed at and written for male-readers and/or characters. This is already been stated. However, I am aware and grateful that I have female readers who read and enjoy my content as well. That's great! I read some fem-reader stuff myself (though most times unknowingly).
– But, let me be clear, I do not appreciate any sort of fetishization of male/male pairings in my inbox or DMs. I also do not take kindly whatsoever to any comment/suggestion/wish of switching or changing my stories to fit a female-centric narrative. I've seen it one too many times, and I've been sent it one too many times.
– All I ask is that if you're going to read and/or interact with my stuff, you be respectful of not just my work but of the other male readers whom it's written for and of my boundaries. We're a tight-knit community on here, male and female readers/writers alike, let's keep it that way!
Tumblr media
Other than that, let's have fun and bask in all the cutesy, sexy (and quite frankly questionable) lore of my magical world!

I wish someone would rewrite the lunar chronicles but better (no offence to Marissa Meyer) and make it cooler with minor alterations. Such as the cresswell age gap, the lack of futuristic or dystopian description besides the author’s own developed ideas like lunars and portscreens, more cyborgs mentioned so it doesn’t seem like Cinder is the only one really, and just overall slightly better writing minus the attributes that make it very clear this was made in the awkward 2010s. This series has so much potential, the whole idea is fantastic really, but the executions haven’t exactly shown that potential. It’s subjective and I’m not saying it’s a horrible trilogy, because it definitely is not, however, the initial interpretation or impression of the “futuristic cyborg cinderella/fairytales” is such an interesting and eye-catching topic on its own that it becomes a let down in certain ways. It could tell the story of all those Pinterest cyberpunk year 3000 cities. Additionally, various writers and authors have their own unique style of writing and it’d be quite compelling to read this series in a different style, preferably a dystopian author like the ready player one type
I agree to an extent. I too would want to alter some elements such as the wolfen soldiers and the alpha mate aspect. It would be cool to further enhance some of the futuristic elements of the setting. However what we have to consider is this--is there time for that? I personally don't see how more worldbuilding beyond the already extensive groundwork laid could work without slowing the story and pacing. Winter is 800 pages already--imagine if you added to it with further exposition! I feel it would suffer, not shine.
This is not a story about what a technologically-advanced society could look like, it's a story about a lost princess who reclaims her throne and overthrows a broken political system--set in a futuristic society. Marissa is foremost interested in characters and plot, still, when you sit back and analyse the worldbuilding, you can clearly see that she put a lot of thought into it. Cyborgs, escort droids, language evolution, robotic animals, political conflicts, space cruise ships; there's a lot of cool stuff in there! I think of all the things to improve about tlc, this would be low priority.
Moreover, this isn't intended to be a dystopian series, it's a sci-fi fantasy series. No, it doesn't have the social commentary like The Hunger Games, but it isn't trying to. The books in The Lunar Chronicles are based on fairytales, and are therefore meant to reflect the romantic, sometimes improbably fantastical elements of such. And yet still, this series explores themes of racism, ableism, sexual assault, suicide, domestic abuse and classism. These are not the main focus of the story, but they certainly aren't ignored. If the series was any darker, its core values of love, adventure and friendship could fall to the wayside.
You mentioned that the series is a trilogy so perhaps you haven't read all the books (the main series is actually a tetralogy, but the whole series is 7 books in total). If you are looking for a darker, more dystopian feel, try Fairest. For more cyborgs, try The Little Android in Stars Above.
So overall, would I enjoy reading tlc by a different author? Sure. I would love to see how an Asian author would depict New Beijing and the Eastern Commonwealth. However would I enjoy any other version more than the original? I don't think so. It would lose the humour, friendships and character developments that are uniquely Marissa. If The Lunar Chronicles isn't written by Marissa Meyer, then it just simply is not The Lunar Chronicles.
That's just my thoughts and I can understand your opinion.
