[yourlocalbadgerscales]

hello, and welcome to my blog <3

trigger warnings before you continue reading: swearwords

My name is Jaimiee/Jamie! Pleasure to meet you <3

Other names I go by are Alfie and Aspen, and occasional use of those names will pleasantly surprise me and probably make my whole entire day a little bit better, so don’t hesitate to use them :)

I am a teen, as in a M-I-N-O-R, so keep that in mind while interacting with me and my posts!

I am transmasc nonbinary and I use they/them pronouns atm. I don’t mind y’all using gendered words such as “bro”, “dude” and “girl” when talking to me.

Lmk if you don’t want me to use gendered words when talking to or about you, but do not start fights with me because I use gendered words about other people. I’ll try to keep y’all’s preferences in mind at all times, but just a heads up, my memory is the WORST! So please have patience with me if I occasionally forget about our agreements :3

I’m just another big fat lesbian 🫡 #women #ilovewomen #ineedagfsofuckingbad #sendhelp

I am currently trying to get diagnosed with autism and/or adhd but it’s taking sooo long sob 🥲

[velvetvexations]

Oh btw about predatorjacketing and kinkshaming trans people;

This is generally going on among modern fandoms and among young queer and trans adults outside of just transfems.

I've seen plenty of non-transfeminine nonbinary and transmasculine folk get hunted down and harassed over cartoon porn they draw. I don't know in detail if it's more frequent or violent towards transfeminine folk (it could be, - given how mainstream transmisogyny relates to the gay or gnc men as predators myth).

I'm transmasc and I don't have a NSFW art platform at all because I'm THAT scared of people finding it, associating it with my mains and then slandering me over it. I can not find community around my kinks etc. because I feel unsafe to discuss that with the vast majority of people. And yes, my transness is a factor. I always feel that it if I was a feminine cis woman I would be seen as cute and innocent. I have a very deep instinctive feeling that my transness to many people represents a sexual threat and that it's easier to demonize me over kinks bcs I stick out too much etc.

Even in a women's changing room I feel that my masculinity is in this stark direct contrast with most people I share that space with, - that I have to be really careful of how I move, where I look and how I come across. I have felt for my whole life, even when being a fem presenting teen, that I am clocked as a boy thing that doesn't belong there. Now on T, with boobs... I also have to avoid talking in those changing rooms. In the company of really fem presenting cis women I feel socially and culturally hypersexualized for my deviant masculinity, for being an apparent dyke in the midst of women. I have cptsd from being around feminine people because of how othered I am + some experiences of being subtly ruled out of the Girls TM club.

Being a sexual being with my kinds of sexual interests while having this experience as a transmasculine person is something quite vulnerable and difficult to fully become confident in and love oneself about. I think transandrophobia and transmisogyny have that whole "you're a predatory impostor among women" thing and "you emasculate straight cis men by existing" thing in common... Just from a slightly diff. angle but there's so much similiarity.

A lot of the chronic policing between transmasc people over kink and sexuality is actually a result of internalizing the idea that we are dirty masculine predators. There is a high social pressure to be cute, feminized, sanitized and say "PROSHIT DNI >:/" because transmascs have an instinctive self-awareness of how we're easily thrown to the wolves when our gender-nonconformity or sexuality is no longer cute and Christian Values Friendly enough.

Being terrified to death about some kind of predatorjacketing over writing fanfic or drawing weird cartoon porn isn't exclusive to transfems. Any transmasc person encaging in fandom or any online art subcultures is waaayyy too intimately aware of this fact 24/7.

Oh and? Transmasc people with feminine partners who are tops / encage in some kind of roleplay where they're in the 'aggressing' role are extremely stigmatized too. I see people instantly write this off as toxic masculinity or inherently gross because a transmasc does it.

A lot of transmascs (speaking from experience) who actually prefer these "scary" roles in fantasy etc., feel social pressure to over-emphasize how bottom uwu sluts we are. I've recently stopped doing this because I realized it makes me dysphoric + I only do it to make my sexuality more palatable to other people. And I see so many transmascs as like... Having to reduce themselves to these cute slut boytoys. While I fully believe this is the authenthic preference of many of them, I think as a transmasc there is a strong social pressure to be /that way/ because being seen as Gross Threatening Men is like a social death sentence.

(there's a lot of good discussion about everything on this blog btw and I love to read it. I just wanted to add 2 cents to the anti kink vs trans people discussion.)

I don't think there's any difference literally at all between how transfem and transmasc sexuality is "handled" by the internet. People have it in their head that everything is an exact 1-1 of everything else so the fact that a trans woman is more likely to be visibly tagged as a pervert just for walking down the street (transmasc members of Velvet Nation please let me know if that's inaccurate) gets transferred to the internet as though everyone treats trans men who have being trans in their bio as the first thing everyone sees as cis men.

At most TERFs might report trans women more often and I don't want to downplay the seriousness of that but get fucking real if one doesn't think trans men aren't under constant scrutiny.

[our-honeybee-transfem-experience]

hi. so, i've never even heard of the term honeybee transfem until like two minutes ago (note i woke up like ten minutes ago,,,) and i ig wouldn't use to for myself but technically that's what i've currently got going on.

i came out as transmasc almost ten years ago, been on t for five. before that (and a little after) i went through a lot of shit, saw my mom go through a lot of shit, and i guess my brain's response to those things was to distance myself from being perceived as a girl as far as possible (which wasn't super far anyway). so i eventually ended up as trans masc (passing easily but only ever slightly past androgynous), dating another trans masc (though we both have like,, a nonbinary worldview) and suddenly all my friends were guys, too, cis and trans, and i started getting more and more upset about not having anything to do with girls/women.

first i was just like "well i'm a feminist (rad but not a terf, i hate terfs for stealing "rad fem" from me. fuck them.) ofc i care about women a lot!!" but it just kept getting "worse" (i identify as agender btw, not as a (trans) guy) and then i kept going "do i want to be with her or do i want to be her??" and started dressing even more fem again (that's the only way i still felt okay being perceived as a guy by people who know me bc i love the gender fuckery and clothes have no gender) to the point where i was more and more often read as transfem by new people (my voice is usually what tips people off) and that sorta gave me gender euphoria.

i don't identify as a woman or a detransitioner now, i guess ftmtf would be the only thing I'd be willing to use, except it's so connected to detransitioning... maybe ftmtnb or something but if have to explain that anyway. i can definitely say that i went through the whole ordeal of growing up as a little girl/young teen, trans masc teen (which is so not the same from growing up as a cis male teen, i cannot relate to that) and now being a young adult as a trans fem. i get gender/social dypshoria from being seen as a guy. i never even got top sugery, let alone bottom surgery, i've just been on t for so long that it makes me masc enough to feel dysphoria now.

i don't regret any of it by the way. i've always been an activist for queer and feminist manners (as i said, rad not terf) and i really want to use this experience to be even more open about it because of the bad stigma around detrasitioners (and trans people in general obviously) but i don't know if i have the balls (or titts, hah) for it.

anyway, as a lil end note bc i saw all those shoutouts: sending love to detransitioners, to people who experienced being trans masc as well as being trans fem, to people who transitioned due to trauma, to intersex people, to activists, allies, advocates. love to people who live closeted for whatever reason. love you all.

[anti-terf-posts]

Hi! I'm a nonbinary teen, and I'm on my period and feeling really dysphoric. Any tips/validation for all of us that have a period and don't identify as women? LOVE this blog btw!

hey there! don't think I can be of much help, so I'm going to leave it up to the lovely people who come across this post to help you out :)) if you guys see this post and have any tips for alleviating dysphoria while you're on your period, please feel free to put it somewhere in the notes!

although, I do have two pieces of advice for you that work for me personally

my first is to dim the lights in the bathroom when you're cleaning up (if that's possible for you). It can help make everything "less visible".

my second piece of advice is always remember that there are some hella masculine and burly non-women out there who get periods, and it doesn't make them any more feminine. after all, you have to be pretty tough to be able to fight your way through a period.

anyways, that's unfortunately all the advice I can offer, so anyone else, please feel free to help this person out in the notes!! that would be greatly appreciated :))

Slash design!

I have finally finished my slash design from the Slash and Basher and My True Love is Dead series! I was originally going to draw digitally but I gave up and decided to go the more traditional route like all my other listeners.

DISCLAIMER!!!

There is a bit of body horror in my designs for my Slash, especially since it’s kinda based of the demogorgon from Stranger Things.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

The separate images, full photo and some info will be after the cut/break thing (I still don’t know what it’s called sorry) just in case. Here is the order of the images.

1. Masked Slash

2. Unmasked Slash

3. Unmasked Slash, opened mouth

4. Slash before becoming…Slash. And also their human form (they can shift between the two forms btw)

5. Full image :D

IT TOOK ME FOREVER TO DRAW THE TEETH ON THE OPENED MOUTH DESIGN. THIS WAS SO HARD TO DRAW.

Now it is time for my Slash’s info. Like always, these facts are most likely NOT CANON, this is just my interpretation/version of Slash.

Slash:

-He/They (Nonbinary)

-Age? Nah. Probably late teens (18-19) when he became what he is. But it took years for him to start and actually being a killer.

-European?

- 7-8 feet, tall and extremely skinny and lanky in his monster-ish form. 5’10 in his human form.

-Based of the demogorgon from stranger things of course.

-In the Slash and the Basher series, they aren’t dead, they were a mutant. They were dared to go to an abandoned warehouse/lab, by a group of “friends”, and were pushed into a vat of unknown chemicals and stuff. Everyone present thought they were dead but the chemicals didn’t really kill them. They were just turned into…slash. Even though his skull is present in his more monster form, he’s not classified as undead.

-In the My True Love is Dead series, they are undead of course.

-They can only eat human flesh. I can see them after killing everyone and letting the virgins and the sole survivor go, they just eat the corpses they killed.

-How does he eat? There is a hole behind the skull. All the skull has to do is move up slightly to reveal that hole or just open the skull’s mouth.

-When he was human, he was an awkward dork who cannot talk to people.

-He’s flexible? I guess? He’s tall and lanky but he can contort his body to fit in a box or something. There is a limit to that of course, they still have bones, they are not an octopus…but he is kinda like an octopus idk.

-It’s…weird to kiss them. In them human form it’s self explanatory on how to kiss them, but…in his monster form…uhhh…kiss the skull when he opens his mouth? Kiss his…cheek when his mouth is closed? Uhhh…

-In their monster form, they have hair on their skull, they can push their hair out of the mouth to simulate hair. That’s how they have more hair in the photo with them in the mask than the one without the mask (both photos is their monster form)

-They can bite people’s heads off or just swing people around like a dog in his monster form, but it also puts them at a vulnerable position, since their skull is right there. Once, one of their victims collided with his skull hard, causing a minor fracture. That hurt and it took a long long time to heal, so they barely do that anymore. That’s why they use throwing knives over him just biting people’s head off.

-Such a cutie in his human form.

-Their birthday is on the 31st of October, Halloween.

I might add some more info, idk though, maybe? But that’s all the info I got.

me talking about some of my fave hypmic relationship dynamics because i am fucking insane

ichikuu- MESSY (im obsessed w them). also ichiro has such vibrant bi vibes i need you all too know this

jiroshi- friends. maybe their friendship gets more ambiguous later on, maybe it doesn't. Bro We Are Teens. Viva La Vida. nonbinary jyushi is a bonus

saburo- stop trying flexing your bitcoin collection. do your brothers even know about this?

mad trigger crew- im a samajyuer at heart and i believe rio is aromantic, but not asexual. do with that info what you will

fling posse- fling poly is good! however im stuck headcanoning ramuda as a heterosexual because i think it's hilarious. gendice w bi dice (energy) and just Queer, Unlabeled gentaro is how i see it

matenrou: they're actually the goat poly ship PLEASE AGREE PLEASE AGREE WITH ME RIGHT NOW

sasaro- exes, but they're just friends now

samasasa- exes, but they're definitely Not friends now

samatoki/doppo isn't a ship of mine per se but i love to think they tried it and it didn't work out for obvious reasons but now they have a wholesome and unlikely friendship (and samatoki threatens doppos boss A Lot)

hear me out btw hitoya/rosho (romantic)-- GUNSHOT

rei- occasionally pays his children child support in the form of vbucks

thank you that is all i had to say

[mirchloe]

quick (incomplete) list of trans headcanons btw! first ones that come to my head.

phoebe is nonbinary! she doesn't have much of a leaning, but prefers she/her pronouns. some days, she does lean toward casual masculine presentation. binds when she's a teen, not so much when she's older. she has to roll her eyes whenever quentin comes up to her shaking his head all, "can't believe you're copying me" because he settled on his gender as nonbinary first. (it's in good fun! he's just ribbing his bestie. pronouns are whatever, call him anything, though he does have his days where he has his preferences.)

norma and lizzie aren't cis. norma is a trans girl, and lizzie is just outside the gender binary. she doesn't care about labeling herself. it's kind of like with quentin, but he's more in a chill vibe, and lizzie likes making herself look really genderweird with whatever pronouns she's feeling that day. norma is strictly she/her tho.

franke is also a trans girl! she always related more to girls when she was younger and didn't get why. she always just thought girls were awesome! then, she learned she could be a girl, and that's history. she's butch when she's an adult.

trans woman hollis is also so real, so true. gotta thank double fine for uploading the alpha footage of pitror and inspiring this headcanon.

benny is a trans guy! like franke, he had a tendency to look up more to guys. figured he might as well be a guy, too! guys are tough! he does have a tendency to put down girls when he's a kid, which isn't great. he grows out of it and does feel a bit bad, trying to smooth it over.

[ryoko-akari]

I'm feeling empowered so extra fuel to the fire of "Fuck you CW for being Homophobic" from little old me.

Specifically in Winchesters and Gotham Knights. Look at me, I know both of these shows were not A tier quality content, but damnit the fact they tried to give us canonically queer characters and got scrapped before either could even finish airing because of the overhaul CW went through recently still kills me.

With Winchesters, we got Carlos Cervantez, a nonbinary (he/him) and bisexual hunter in the 1970s just trying to get by. With teasers we knew from the start he was going to be bisexual in canon, and I remember genuinely feeling so happy and tearing up in the episodes where we had Carlos explicitly going through what is best described as Gay Panic™️ and it feeling genuine and well written. It irks me so much that there's still nobody talking about this, I know we all love Destiel, I do too, BUT CAN WE PLEASE ALSO SPARE SOME LOVE FOR MY BOY CARLOS HES ABSOLUTELY SLAYING WITH A HOLY WATER HAIR WHIP PLEASE LOOK AT THE ICON I BEG-

* ahem * sorry composure was lost for a second. Moving on.

Gotham Knights. As a batman and batfam fan, yeah I wasn't super stoked on this initially because it seemed like such an odd premise, I initially only watched it because Misha was in it as Dent and I was really excited to see how he portrayed him (absolutely fantastic job btw) and then I got gut punched by the reveal that Cullen Row was transmasc (and played by transmasc actor Tyler DiChiara!). I literally started the show for Misha and stuck it through for Tyler and Cullen and it was worth it. He wasn't treated any differently than any of the other guys just because he was trans, he's written beautifully and with genuine care for his character. I agree that the show wasn't the greatest or most entertaining to watch at points but it's targeted towards younger teen audiences of course its not going to be all that interesting to college students and adults, but the fact they spent the time to carefully craft a well written trans character that feels authentic to the experience as a transmasc person myself in a medium where there is still a lot of aggressive back and forth debate on allowing queer characters in, and waiting multiple episodes prior to revealing this to make it feel realistic to the characters and the viewer is beautiful and should be talked about and cherished more.

So that fact that both shows were canceled prior to finishing their runs and not given much of a fighting chance despite the loud outcries from the fans to continue running them, absolutely destroys me. And this isn't all of it too, I could go into a whole other rant about Ava Sharp and Sara Lance's relationship in Legends of Tomorrow along with John Constantine being on that show and how the show was basically run into the ground by making it so convoluted the only option was to completely cancel it after they collected most of the queer arrowverse characters into it to kill off in one fell swoop.

I just. CWs history of pretending it's queer friendly and then canceling shows with canon queer characters with the only explanation being "budget restraints" kills me constantly to think about.

[mamamittens]

I'm supposed to be sleeping but nah.

Here's some AO3 statistics on my stories instead!

Under the cut of you're a nerd like me and morbidly curious as to what hits big in my fics specifically.

So, from my first fics on AO3 all the way back in 2016 to 2023, here's my top stories from kudos, which is a harder metric to hit compared to well, hits.

Btw, just realized that the by year filter is based on update not when it's written, so as long as it was updated in that year it makes the list.

As you can see this is also the year I got into Undertale. "We Are Falling" being my first Undertale fic with the zanny OC 'Tumble', AFAB nonbinary older sibling to Frisk. Mostly a story of crack taken more or less seriously.

Not at all surprised the HP crossover fic "Determined Magics" tops it cause well... It's HP and also written when the crossovers were very few and mostly drabbles. "Hopeful Magic" is the dropped sequel because I had no idea how to continue the story at a decent length and eventually forgot what little plans I did have. It was very hard to decide to officially drop it and I'm still upset it had to be done to this day.

Similarly, "It's going Tibia A Cute Time" was dropped for similar reasons because i started including more details I had no idea how to close out than when I first started. This one featuring an OC essentially raising the skeleton brothers. It was a whole thing.

"Sketchy as Hell" is actually my first romance fic and stars an OC named "Anna" in the AU verse "Underfell", which for the uninitiated is basically edgy Undertale. Wild times. "Colorful as Hell" is the sequel. It is in fact totally finished.

"Shadows in the Ice" just didn't have enough story and nothing I thought of would pad it out into an acceptable length for me, so it was also dropped after a very long time and much reluctant deliberation. At best, this story would be more of a short story. It is based off of a movie after all. Not a lot of plot to start with.

And this is for only this year alone!

Unsurprisingly it's mostly my One Piece one shots for the most part (specifically smuts).

But Sweet Child tops all of them, which honestly tracks, being a reader insert with different romantic/platonic ending with a few different characters. Some of which are still pending. A little surprised the Child AU version "How our Seeds Grow" also made it onto the top area of my list! Especially given how it's just one chapter but I guess folks love child inserts with platonic yanderes idk.

Quite surprised the FNAF fic "A Friend of Charlotte" is on here given how poorly OC fics tend to do in general but given the public nature of kudos and the way the filter works by year, I suppose this teen rates fic had a better shot. This one is about Blaire, teenage medium discovering the secrets of the pizzaplex from Security Breach before, during, and after the games events.

"Fireworks" made it to #2, which is mildly surprising but it is a smutfic about Ace and a reader insert so... Not that surprising.

"Twice Bitten (But not Shy)" being a sequel to a vampire Crocodile with AFAB reader insert smut so zero surprise that it's here.

"Sugar on Your Tongue" is another smutfic for One Piece but this time with Marco, Ace, Zoro, and Sanji in a foursome. Spicy. Zero surprise it's here.

And last on this singular screenshot (there are fics with less kudos under it) is "A Lone Melody" doing alright considering it's an OC centric fic in a massive fandom. All about Melody (half human half fishman) growing up with Arlong (and sometimes Jinbe) as she realizes not everything is as she thought it was and Arlong realizes there are consequences to being a racist prick with yandere-esque protective tendencies. Mostly. It's more about Melody though.

Just for fun, here's last year, 2022.

Unsurprised "Hopeful Magic" tops it, this is the year I dropped it and left a chapter explaining what little plans I could recall.

But yeaaaahhh... All of the 'new' entries are One Piece smut to my absolute non-shock.

"Aloe Kisses" Sabo smut with AFAB reader, "The Only Choice" yandere Ace smut with AFAB reader, "Riptide" yandere Jinbe smut with female reader, and "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf" werewolf Ace smut with AFAB werewolf reader. Zero shock and awe here lol.

I... Wrote a lot of smut in 2022. It's easier to get a high word count than fluff, ngl, and I did several events that year with smut as an option that I cross posted. The werewolf Ace fic is one such smut specifically for the Halloween/horror themed event if memory serves!

If I had to say which one I had the most fun writing it would probably be "We Are all Falling" cause I was literally pumping out a chapter everyday after classes in college with my roomie (still bestie) reading over it. It was dumb, stupid fun. A real treat with a random, aggressive sense of humor that if you read it, you'd recognize my trademark writing starts real early. Including having unexpected villains, body horror, dramatics, and side eyes references to anime I've seen. Tumble was me totally uninhibited by anxiety and fear with a good dose of angst and the best of intentions. Also absolutely fed up with bullshit but strangely optimistic.

After that? I'd have to say my second favorite that's on any of these 'lists' would have to be "A Friend of Charlotte". I spent what had to be weeks crafting Blaire and her backstory. Her story is also the only one that I can more or less consistently hit a pretty high word count for chapters without feeling bloated, which is quite satisfying. A bit more mature of a story with some fun taken crafting a middle ground between the ludicrously dangerous setting of literally any location in FNAF with something that could actually maybe exist without getting shut down for being... Ludicrously dangerous for literally anyone in, around, or even thinking about. Definitely a little more kind to upper management than canon FNAF management who seem to view OSHA violations as a checklist and a challenge. Seriously, how the hell do you make body snatcher animatronics without a little bit of pause??? Why?? Why would you do that?!? (The amount of haunted animatronics is also a problem but arguably not usually a feature until Funtime)

My Definition of "Manchild"

Manchild is an age old name people have on the internet for people they don’t like. It’s been used pretty broadly but generally speaking it means one or more of the following

An adult (usually male) who…

Still collects action figures

Watches cartoons

Likes things made for kids or all ages

Is passionate about sci-fi and superheroes

Has an air of “child-like” innocence to them

Still lives with their parents

Is unemployed

Has poor hygiene

Is possibly incontinent

Regularly visit amusement parks like Disney by themselves

Likely has an intellectual and/or developmental disability

Incessantly whines about unimportant stuff

Not all of these things are inherently bad. In fact, most of them aren’t. There’s certainly a stigma surrounding adults who indulge in escapist material. Many adults who do this are likely to have an intellectual or developmental disability. This is especially obvious when you regularly attend fan conventions. I’m not even saying that to be funny, it’s literally true. I in many ways fit the description of a “manchild”. If someone called me that for those reasons alone, it would be patronizing and infantilizing.

Many teens and adults, this especially goes for people with intellectual disabilities, are viewed as “having the body of a teen/adult but the mind of a child”. The reasoning used for this is a combination of what their interests are, what their general disposition is, how much support they require from others to live, and how they dress, among other things. None of these are things that actually make someone a manchild. None of these things are exclusively characteristic of children. None of it justifies talking to someone like they are a child if they are not one nor does it excuse putting them in classes that are basically kindergarten for older kids/adults. Nothing justifies these things.

The last point on the above list is something that I think actually does make someone a manchild. While many people on the internet who complain about, say, their favorite sci-fi franchises “going woke”, check off the other boxes as well, those things are most certainly not one in the same. But there are also adults who act this way and are not into geek or internet subculture. Btw, a gender neutral term for this I think could be appropriate is Whiny Little Shit. Crybaby, perhaps. Or even just whiny.

Children aren’t even like this, funnily enough. Sure they get upset over small things very often, but a lot of the time it can either be due to disregulation, not yet having better control of their emotions, or a combination of the two. Manchildren *do* know better, yet still get upset over petty BS. And it’s funny.

So here are a few examples of things manchildren/Whiny Little Shits often complain about

Losing an election

Being rejected by women or someone they perceive as female. Or anyone they make inappropriate advancements towards.

Being rightfully criticized for their actions

Getting deplatformed for spewing dangerous ideas

Being kicked out of a venue for public indecency

A prominent character existing in the newest iteration of a long running series they like being female, nonbinary, canonically disabled and/or a person of color. Bonus points if they call it “woke”.

Having it so hard despite being a billionaire

Being told “no” in general

So manchildren exist, or any other variation of the term. They are not worth your time if you come across them. But just because they fit some of the criteria listed above doesn’t automatically mean they are an unpleasant brat. So whenever I happen to call someone a manchild-it’s really the incessant complaining that I am referring to.

Short version: There is a common term on the internet for people known as “manchild”. It tends to be applied to someone simply for being an adult that likes certain things or lives a particular lifestyle. Those things alone are not do not make someone a manchild. This term can be especially harmful to adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. What actually makes someone a manchild is who they are as a person.

So in my future fan-made Be More Chill sequel, in the beginning, 3 of the Heere children (There's 5 of them total, three of which were adopted (3 teens, 2 adults) (And honestly, I feel bad for Jeremy and Christine (and later on just Jeremy since he and Christine divorce a few years before the events of the sequel (Yes, they do married in between the original musical and the sequel))) are in a different school in a different state with a...very tyrannical and powerful principal who just...straight up despises the three teens for being different?

And remember in my Beanie Babies post, I said in the tags that Kenai is one of the 3 characters from an unrelated film who's in this sequel (Because at the beginning, I was a little lazy when it came to picking out children for Jeremy and Christine and then kept those 3 characters anyway once I did create their kids)? Well, so is Denahi, and they're both teens here (or should I say HEERE?), along with one of their older siblings Marley (an OC child of Jeremy and Christine), but either way, still a crossover.

Well, the principal hates all 3 of them for being different from most of the other students (aside from 2 others who are hated by the principal for that same reason*) (Kenai for being rebellious (he's rebellious in the beginning but slowly changes once the family moves to New Jersey) and neurodivergent, Denahi for being Indigenous, having anxiety (ACTUAL anxiety, btw. Not the whole "Oh, I'm afraid no one will notice me, but also, please notice me!" ordeal (which technically counts as being anxious, but only about specific topic), but rather how anxiety actually works IRL..."Did I study for my test this morning? Did I actually complete my homework? Will people notice that I forgot to brush my hair this morning? Can everyone tell I was up till 3 AM last night just tossing and turning?"), and being an emo despite him getting practically all the ladies (Yes, I did decide on Denahi being emo here (a more recent decision). I just feel like that fits him well. Also, to commemorate that one moment in Brother Bear where Denahi is greeted by a bunch of ladies right BEFORE he gets bit by the dog whose tail he accidentally stepped on, I decided on him being rather popular among the ladies (in both schools he attends, though the Middleborough ladies are a lot more respectful and don't bother requesting hook-ups)), and Marley for being nonbinary).

Now, originally, I made the principal an older man whose booming voice scared the entire room, but just yesterday, I decided, "You know what? Let's make the principal an older woman whose presence alone scares people into submitting to her rules".

Anyway, said principal gives off mixed vibes of Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada (forgot her character's name) and (possibly) Dolores Umbridge in Harry Potter (I haven't seen those movies, but I do know just how hated she is by the franchise for the person she is), and honestly, I feel a lot better making that change for her, because it fits the vibe of "this school is a very unsafe place" better than when she was a man.

On another note, this means that her daughter Francine (the most popular girl in the school and the one Denahi gets into a relationship with before the events of the sequel because he felt like he needed to get into a relationship to avoid the constant hook-up requests (That ends up being a big mistake later on in that segment)) is no longer a daughter of Madeline, but I don't mind that.

Maybe I can add a background Middleborough High student who's a child of Madeline?

No, they wouldn't be hated on by the popular girl for, quote, "sleeping around". Actually, a lot of the usual stereotypes in high school centric books/movies/TV shows will be broken in this fan-made sequel, but more on that in a different post.

And sorry for rambling about one specific character who I absolutely despise (yet still enjoyed creating on Gacha Club for some reason 😅) and about some semi-unrelated stuff (but still related to this fanfic (which I'll probably end up posting here on Tumblr).

I'll keep posting more info, but for now, have a great day or night, wherever you guys are!

*The other two students the principal despises are OC characters Kenise (the one female student who genuinely enjoys hanging out with Denahi and doesn't see him as someone she wants to hook up with), and Jean (The principal's more "rebellious" son (though he does what he does to protest against his mother's rules))

(Also, on another note, if one plans on giving a character anxiety in a high school centric book, MAKE IT F**KING REALISTIC!! (But of course, I could be wrong about some of the usage of anxiety in high school centric projects. If there are any high school centric books, movies, or TV shows you can think of where a protagonist with anxiety genuinely has anxiety and isn't just anxious about whether they'll be noticed by the other students or not (which is what I discussed earlier), please let me know)

(And again, sorry about the rambling. I literally woke up at 10:30 something this morning, so I'm a little out of it right now 😳😳😳)

[catlovergirl676]

Neo pronouns are a disgrace to the LGBTQA+ community. And here's why:

1- They are like silly and childish nicknames that preteens and people in their early teens decided to give themselves.

Ex: Mew, Pink, bird, etc.

(I'm not joking. I've seen some people refer to themselves, and even fictional characters, like this. And it is the cringiest thing I've ever seen.)

2- They think that it is "quirky" or "funny" and that it a way to "affirm their gender identity". But, that's bullsh*t and you all know it.

How does calling yourself "mew", "glitter", "dragon", or whatever other nonsensical nickname, tell us anything about your actual gender?

Calling someone "ze/xe, or other made up pronouns like these is already hard because of the grammatical and pronounciation difficulties it creates. But, at least with ze/xe, it was intended to be used to create more inclusive ways to refer to people who are nonbinary, agender, or something similar. While, with the previously mentioned "neopronouns", people sound like they have kept a mental age of 12 years old and don't know anything about how gender identity works.

Btw, you are free to disagree with me if you want. But, any comment insulting me or another user will be reported.

So, please, express your opinions/concerns in a respectful and civil manner.

Thank you for your understanding.

Good day! 🙏 I know that this might come inappropriate to ask for a favor like this but I just wanted to ask if you could possibly share or boost the post I pinned for my cat. We're in desperate need of help right now. I hope youd consider, if not I understand dont worry. Be safe always! Btw, happy late valentines to you! Pls consider sending me a msg instead of replying the ask publicly, if its fine or maybe answer it privately 🙏

Scammer, sweetheart, I am fascinated by you. Are you one person making about $1000 a month preying on kind people who have very little money themselves? Is $1000 a lowball or do you actually make a wage? Is this your living? Are you a parasite for a living, or is it just a hobby? I mean, you raise enough to invest in checkmarks on your account, which is cute.

Or are you an exploited person who is being forced through circumstances to farm for gold, the profit of which is taken by the crime syndicate that is keeping you captive. Stealing cat photos and sob stories, making fake victim stories and researching which little fandoms will make you seem most real, when you are yourself the one who needs help (not the latest fake cat.) are there a group of you, with a target to meet, swapping tips to meet the quota? Is that why it’s always a cat, did you work out that people pay the most for cats or something?

I hope it’s the first situation: it means I can make fun of you as much as I like. But if it’s the second, that feels awful. And I do worry that it’s the second, because if it was the first, you’d have enough memory in your little noggin not to bother me. Because you blocked me, babes, when I pointed out there was no cat, and we all killed you. So I worry it’s the second scenario.

I suppose you could be a group of giggling unpleasant teens in a bedroom? Maybe Mean Girls who started off making tumblr accounts for a coordinated bullying attack, but ended up accidentally running a bot farm. Maybe young forum-dwellers who think it’s a particularly delicious twist to squeeze the silly tumblr queers too dumb to know better and use the cash to finance right-wing YouTubers. Maybe this is what the trained kids who are paid to run psy-ops during election years do in the off-cycle. But I do worry about a bleary room over-full of tired people, badly fed, badly housed, grimly slapping 🙏 emojis by hand on a thousand messages. I always feel bad hanging up on spam callers when you hear the great dreary hangar of phones and callers all around them. Nobody wants to be involved in the conversation but the scam callers have a quota to meet, a set amount of cash to extract from the faceless marks, and so they power bleakly through the latest script with a hundred other trapped people doing the same. What are your bosses like?

Are you doing this against your will, @the-nonbinary-witch? Next time, come to me right away put some emojis in indicating that you need help. A few skulls will tip me off.

Hello! I'm nonbinary and transmasc and in the closet irl, i'm also a 14yo. Although i dont feel chest dysphoria at all, i want to start biding bc i think it will give me a lot of gender euphoria. I just have a question, it is safe to bind in my age? Or do i need to wait some years to be able to do that?

Thank you! Btw i love ur blog!

thank you so much!! i'm sorry it took a while to answer this, i hope you've been doing alright in the meanwhile!

i would say that at your age, i can only recommend binding lightly when your dysphoria is so bad you can't handle it, and for short bursts of time. taking breaks to breathe, stretch and get time outside of that is going to be very important.

it's not recommended to bind heavily for any extended period of time at that age, due to the fact that you are still growing, your bones are still setting in to where they need to be and you do not want to inhibit or influence any of that growth. you also don't want to run the risk of permanently damaging breast tissue or one's nipples, because this can cause complications with top surgery down the road.

i would recommend using a well-fitting sports bra with no built in cups- i know that bras can cause dysphoria for many, but i personally used sports bras for most of my teens and early adult years and they gave me the most peace of mind. if you absolutely need a traditional binder, only wear it for very short bursts of time, like 1 - 2 hours at a time, but not for a full day at school, or a long trip, or anything like that.

i hope that helps! for now, try to see if you can find any sports bras that don't have built-in cups, and try to practice layering clothes to obfuscate the chest. you can do a lot by layering tank tops, undershirts, t-shirts and/or any kind of overshirts! take care, and i hope you're able to figure out something that works for you!
