Things I've seen tumblr memeing about James Somerton doing Ć  la "How did no one see how bigoted he was!" as if those things haven't been a significant part of tumblr culture for over a decade :
Presenting untrue and bordering on conspiratorial versions of (queer or otherwise marginalised) history without any sources
Completely disregarding and disrespecting any expertise on socio-cultural topics/humanities and distrusting academics and historians (incl. acting as if no academics or historians could be queer or marginalised)
Downplaying the role misogyny played in the historical oppression of queer women and concluding that queer men must have been more oppressed than queer women
Bi women are, at best, not as queer as "real" queer ppl, and at worst, simply equivalent to straight women
Despite nominal trans inclusivity, transmasculine ppl are functionally women when convenient (combined with the above, bi transmascs are functionally straight women)
Despite nominal trans inclusivity (bis), shamelessly attacking, threatening and actively endangering any trans woman who questions them or smth they find important (often by unfairly presenting her as violent or as a threat)
Having absolutely fucking wild and reductive takes about ace ppl, the oppression they face and their place in the queer community
Stating that marriage equality is an assimilationist fight while completely ignoring its direct roots in the horrifying consequences of the AIDS crisis for partners of ppl who died of AIDS
Praising western media creators from the past for queer coding even under censure and in the same breath condemning current non western media creators for being homophobic bc their representation isn't explicit enough
Blaming China for all existing homophobic censoring in western media
Assuming all queer media would be better told by western creators and by western standards
Only out queer ppl get to tell queer stories
Heavily criticising almost all queer media created by women or ppl they see as such (see above points about trans ppl) or involving/starring a significant amount of women for any perceived or real amount of "problematicness", but fawning over and praising and negating criticism of queer media created by and starring mostly or even functionally exclusively men (even when it could be argued that, you know, not involving/seriously sidelining women is a pretty clear example of misogyny which should probably be considered "problematic")
And I'm probably forgetting stuff or there's stuff I have internalised myself and don't recognise as an issue
Like idk but I feel like the takeaway from Hbomberguy and Toddintheshadow's videos should maybe be "be aware of such patterns in your communities bc they definitely exist" and not "this guy is uniquely awful" and I feel like a lot of the discussion I've seen surrounding this has been severely failing at that. Most ppl who've spent any significant amount of time on tumblr prob either have internalised at least one of those thought patterns, have had to de-internalise them, or have had to be extremely vigilant to not internalise them (which is done by, you know, seeking out other sources, which also seemed like an important takeaway from the videos)

Leo learns something about himself šŸ³ļøā€āš§ļø
Based roughly on this old post.
Bonus:
Tumblr media
[Leo is taking the fact that he was born biologically female simultaneously very well and also not so well but overall heā€™s mostly coping with the fact that it was Draxum that just essentially gave him the turtle equivalent of ā€˜The Talkā€™.]
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt leo#rise leo#trans leonardo#trans leo#rottmnt headcanons#turtle art tag#rise draxum#happy pride everyone~#if youā€™re wondering why thereā€™s no backgrounds thatā€™s because my files got messed up so just blankness in the bg sorry#but yeah!#this is forever and always my fav headcanon for Leo it makes too much sense to me#I wanted to make sure I got it done in time for pride haha#I donā€™t know if itā€™s obvious by the end but Draxum ran off because he was for once doing something nice for Leo#that being leading him somewhere else not in front of everyone so Leo can process the fact that he was born female in peace haha#(but he also just - wanted to avoid the ensuing awkward Talk as long as he could lol)#ā€œhow would Leo NOT knowā€™ā€™ he had an inkling but never thought much of it because heā€™s a teenage turtle mutant with no access to healthcare#also yeah thatā€™s splinterā€™s hand at the end there I just KNOW heā€™d want those pics#also also - Leo here can technically be trans or even intersex in some way too#both is good#making this made me remember why I never do color#at least for comics#it just takes sooo long#but it was fun and worth it for my fave hc#this is like the first time Iā€™ve drawn Draxum and man heā€™s kinda hard to draw#also their sizes are just 1 2 and 3 because Draxum had a simple system in place for sizing his subjects#(aka I was too lazy to think of anything else to put there)#also dunno if anyone noticed but look at Raphā€™s paper and look at his babyā€™s selfā€™s photo

when obi-wan said 'I won't kill anakin' and then spent the entire rest of his life following through on that. fuck everyone else obi-wan I respect you yoda should've taken you at your fucking word
'boohoo why did he walk away and not kill anakin this time either even with all the suffering he'll go on to cause if he lets him go' he's told you why very clearly you just didn't believe him I guess!! desperately not killing anakin is obi-wan's main export. it's his universal constant, his life's work, his magnum opus. he gets creative about not killing that guy. he tries to send anakin's teenage twink son to do the job for him because he simply can't. he fucking... peaces out and dies to avoid killing anakin. that's like his whole deal. whether he's right to be like this is another entirely separate conversation but it is what he is

part one here. ze part two to touch-starved stevie that absolutely no one requested hehe <3 but i gots to let my boys have a wee kiss :")
So, hugs with Eddie becomeā€¦ well, a thing.
Not a thing. Theyā€™re not a thing, Steve and Eddie. Itā€™s totally the same as when he gets hugs from Robin. Eddieā€™s doing him a favour as a friend. Itā€™s got the 100% platonic energy of getting a hug from a friend ā€” a hug that usually melts into some form of a cuddle, limbs all tangled together until they canā€™t tell whose are whose.
Except, Steve doesnā€™t really do that second part with Robin. Like he hasnā€™t done it ever with Robin.
So, itā€™s an Eddie thing.
But theyā€™re not a thing. Not matter how much Steve would actually very much like for that happen. Okay, maybe Steveā€™s overthinking the whole thing a bit, but he just canā€™t tell.
Whereā€™s the line? Itā€™s infuriating not being able to discern between platonic and more, just because Steve wasnā€™t held enough as a fucking baby. Out of all the things he resents his parents for, Steveā€™s surprised that this is so near the top.
Because, sure, Steveā€™s had more than his fair share of hookups. He knows that sort of touch. He knows the shape of lust; the scrapes of fingernails down backs, the tight grips over skin, the push and pull of the heat of the moment.
And this thing with Eddieā€¦ is not that.
So, really, Steve knows that itā€™s all friendly. Eddie is just being nice. Heā€™s being a decent dude and helping his friend out ā€” by catapulting himself into Steveā€™s arms at every opportune moment.
(Steveā€™s only dropped 3 mugs of coffee because of this so far. Itā€™s only because Eddie says good catch, big boy with a devilish grin every time that Steve manages to catch Eddie that Steve hasnā€™t completely told him to knock it off. Just yet, at least.)
And heā€™s different in other areas. Heā€™ll always seem to choose the seat next to Steve on movie-nights now, content to snuggle right up to him. They get thigh to thigh, arm to arm ā€” and Eddie only needs to get about 20 minutes in for him to do a big sigh, like an old dog, and slump over, resting his head on Steveā€™s shoulder.
Steve notices though. He always notices.
Itā€™s impossible not toā€” the skin, even if thereā€™s 3 layers between them, burns blazing warm. Eddieā€™s hair drapes over his arm, a curl inevitably tickling along Steveā€™s collar. He can feel the rise and fall of Eddieā€™s breathing, the little shake of when he laughs.
It drives Steve a little insaneā€” insane in the way that makes him think about burying his fingers in those curls again, about pressing his lips against Eddieā€™s pretty mouth just to feel the smile against his skin, about digging into his chest so he can climb into his chest and live there.
Yeah, itā€™sā€” well, itā€™s safe to say that the effect of Eddieā€™s touchiness has sent what was once a fleeting thought of a crush into mind-melting levels of affection.
But he canā€™t fucking tell.
-
To Steveā€™s credit, neither can Eddie.
Which is not surprisingly considering sometimes he catches himself wondering how the hell he ended up here; in a close-knit friendship with band-geek Robin Buckley, princess Nancy Wheeler, and King Steve Harrington.
Okay, the Robin one sort of makes sense. He thinks that if no matter when their paths crossed, he and Robin wouldā€™ve always even some sort of strange friends - her snark complimenting his bitchiness. Also, the whole super queer thing helps too. Even the friendship with Nancy works, in its own weird way.
Steve though? Heā€™s the fucking curve ball.
It works though, the two of them. Surprisingly well, actually ā€” the two of them get on like a house on fire, bitchy quips back and forth. Even better, is the quiet that they can share. Steve loves to come around and doļæ½ļæ½ļæ½ nothing. Do nothing with Eddie, though.
So, even though Eddie had noticed the tension in Steve with touch, little moments where he turned rigid when Eddieā€™s usual wandering hands got too comfortable ā€” Eddie chalked it up to the usual. Guys bring too uncomfortable with him, too weird about another guy being touchy. It didnā€™t matter than Eddie wasnā€™t even out to Steve yet, he was still might be that type of guy.
Well, Eddie had certainly thought so. Sure, Steve might not be one of those jocks who smacked around boys who looked too long in the locker room, but if he knew a smidge of the truth, who really knows. It would explain the tenseness at least.
But thenā€” ā€˜Can Iā€¦ have a hug?ā€™ There had been a dozen things Eddie was thinking that Steve couldā€™ve asked for but that? Wasnā€™t even in the ballpark. It was so left-field it left Eddie speechless for a whole moment. And Steve had been staring at the ceiling, his hands curled up tight again like- like he thought Eddie might say no.
A ridiculous thought, honestly. Anyone who knew Eddie well enough knew he was touchy; loved giving it, loved getting it. Like an overly affectionate cat, Wayne had once called him, just 11 years old, because Eddieā€™s need for affection seem to never be sated.
After that night, Steveā€™s lack of touch became far more obvious. Itā€™s always hair ruffles or high-fives, yet never hugs. Normally, Eddie would keep to that boundary; some people are less touchy other than others, he knows that.
Butā€¦ ā€œSometimes I realise itā€™s been awhile, since Iā€™ve had some touch.ā€ Thatā€™s what Steve had said, his words. Eddie doesnā€™t even think he meant to say something so heartbreaking. In fact, the guy seemed embarrassed.
It had thrown Eddie for a loopā€” because Steve gets around. Heā€™s nearly notorious for one-night stands and failed flings, as Robin loves to drone on about considering sheā€™s subjected to all the flirting. What had originally been a point of envy for Eddie, just saturates the bleakness of Steveā€™s words. Sex but without a moment of intimacy.
So, while Eddie is miles away from being the person who gets into Steveā€™s pants ā€” not for lack of want, mind you ā€” he does try hike up the touchiness. Little things. Lingering when he taps him on the arm, hooking his chin over Steveā€™s shoulder to peer over it, leaning up against him when theyā€™re side by side watching a film.
Itā€™s good. It helps Eddie release the pressure of his stupid monumental god-awful crush he has. Yeah, yeah, itā€™s laughable, even to Eddie. Itā€™s like Gay 101; donā€™t get crush on straight dudes, especially the ones youā€™re friends with. And yetā€¦
Steve lets him. He lets Eddie give him touch, more than he lets anyone else. He still tenses; thereā€™s still always a moment before he can remember to relax, like heā€™s trying to shake off bad thoughts but then he melts. He always melts into Eddieā€™s touch eventually ā€” in a way Eddie knows Steve actually loves it, drinks it up as much as he can.
And maybe, Eddie is the biggest fool to grace the Earth to let that fact give him some hope. Sue his gooey heart, heā€™s a romantic. Itā€™s a quiet hope but, itā€™s there.
Tonight, it seems relaxing for Steve is been harder than usualā€” several times has Eddie traced a quite long along Steveā€™s arms, a subtle point that they were far too tense for someone who was wrapped up in cuddles on the couch. ā€˜Cos thatā€™s 100% what they are now. Eddie will still call them hugs, but usually, when itā€™s just the two of them, it becomes this.
Steve, tucked up into the corner of the couch, one leg flush along the back of the couch and one hanging off the edge. Itā€™s the prime position for Eddie to crawl up, wind his arms around Steveā€™s middle and give him a good squeeze and then settle there. Head on Steveā€™s chest, lying in the cradle of his hips. Safe. Warm.
It makes him warm, oh very warm to know that he gets this. That Steve doesnā€™t give this amount of trust to many, if any, other people but Eddie ā€” he trusts Eddie.
ā€œYā€™know,ā€ Eddie says, cheeks smushed against the plain of Steveā€™s pec. It feels deliciously warm and Eddieā€™s fairly sure he can feel how toned it is just through his cheek. Hot bastard. ā€œIā€™m actually real glad you asked for that hug all those weeks ago.ā€
He leaves it there ā€˜cos he knows Steve will ask. Eddieā€™s eyes stay on the buzzing tv-screen even as Steveā€™s head shifts, turning to peer down at the boy slumped on his chest. Eddieā€™s pretty sure he can see Steveā€™s mouth twitch up into a smile.
ā€œYeah?ā€
ā€œOh yeah,ā€ Eddie affirms, giving a nod and his eyes flick up to meet Steveā€™s for just a moment. ā€œThink Iā€™ve had some of the best hugs in the world.ā€
Okay, that was maybe more honest and sappy than Eddie was going for. He is just letting Steve know he isnā€™t just doing it for Steve ā€” that he enjoys these moments just as much. He lays it on thick, tries for a smarmy angle.
ā€œSwept up in these pillowy arms?ā€ He croons, giving Steveā€™s bicep a quick squeeze, making the other chuckle softly. ā€œWho wouldnā€™t think so? Iā€™m a lucky guy.ā€
Despite the joking tone, thereā€™s no quick comeback from Steve. Thatā€™s alright. Eddieā€™s quite happy if this is one of the times Steve just takes the compliment; letā€™s the word sink in and hopefully, believes them, even if itā€™s just a little bit. He watches the film and doesnā€™t read into the silence.
Not even when Steve says, ā€œEddie?ā€ all soft. Nearly shy sounding. It doesnā€™t quite register to Eddieā€™s ears.
ā€œMm?ā€
ā€œEddie.ā€ Steve says again, a little firmer and that catches Eddieā€™s attention. He turns his head and rests his chin on Steveā€™s chest, his brows drawn together in silent question.
But the moment he makes eye contact, Steveā€™s doing that scrunched up face again. Is studying the ceiling instead of facing Eddie. And just like all those weeks ago, his hands clench up tight. Twists up the fabric of Eddieā€™s sweater in between his fingers and uses it to ground himself.
Last time, he asked for a hug. Considering heā€™s currently just about squishing Steve beneath his body weight, Eddie canā€™t fathom what he might be worked up to ask for. Unless he was going to ask for something more than a hugā€” which, well, just wasnā€™t going to happen, even if Eddie really wanted it to.
ā€œCan I-ā€ Steve starts. He sucks in a breath, almost like heā€™s gathering courage. But heā€™s not, because heā€™s not about to ask for what Eddie hopes for, heā€™s not, heā€™sā€”
Unlessā€¦?
ā€œCan Iā€¦ have a kiss?ā€ Steve asks, barely audible. The sentence is murmured, soft words that hit Eddie like a gentle kiss in itself ā€” imprinting right onto his heart. Steve Harrington wants a kiss ā€” from him!
ā€œOh.ā€ Eddie says, in a breathy delightful way. Heā€™s fairly certain the little monkey in his brain is clapping its cymbals at double-speed as the words process; or maybe itā€™s his heart, which feels like itā€™s leapt up his throat.
ā€œOh?ā€ Steve echoes, a smile already playing at the edges of his mouth, because he can see Eddieā€™s want. Because he knows him.
ā€œYes.ā€ Eddie says suddenly, with a frantic nod, pushing up closer so their faces are aligned. ā€œYes, absolutely, you can.ā€ He affirms.
Steve huffs a quiet laugh at the eagerness and then his arm that had been slung around Eddie shifts. It moves up til his hand caresses along the line of Eddieā€™s jaw, tilting him just how he likes.
Eddie holds his breath. Counts the freckles he can see this close. Tries to feel Steveā€™s heartbeat through where theyā€™re pressed so closely together; can Steve feel his? Thundering and hurried, beating so hard Eddie thinks he might bruise the inside of his ribs.
Then Steve kisses him. And shit, Steveā€™s lip are better by ten-fold than every daydream Eddieā€™s ever had about them. Theyā€™re warm and so soft ā€” plush and pressing against his own and Eddie is freezing. Fuck, wait, how does this go again? Right, Eddieā€™s neverā€¦ well, kissed anybody before.
Steve pulls back and Eddie screws his eyes up ā€” not ready in the slightest for the disappointment of his own shoddy kissing skills. Fuck, did he really just freeze? Steve ā€” Steve Harrington ā€” asks for a kiss and Eddie decides to stab himself in the back by not figuring out how to fuck to kiss back.
ā€œYou call that a kiss?ā€ Steve teases and Eddieā€™s well aware of the parallel ā€” of the irony of Steve repeating his own words back at him. But he canā€™t make himself laugh even though itā€™s funny. Instead, a little groan wiggles out his throat.
ā€œIā€™m sorry,ā€ Eddie says, earnest. He forces his eyes opens ā€” he needs to see whatā€™s Steveā€™s thinking. Where heā€™s expecting disappointment or perhaps regret, is only patience. Maybe a touch of concern. Eddie continues, despite the humiliation that makes his throat sticky.
ā€œI havenā€™t- I donā€™t do this often.ā€ He coughs awkwardly clearing his throat and hoping it hides the next word. ā€œEver.ā€
Thereā€™s a jump in Steveā€™s eyebrows, a moment of surprise in his eyes that lets him know he did, indeed, hear that final word. It makes Eddie feelā€¦ well, itā€™s nice that Steve had expected him to have been kissed by now. Even if he hasnā€™t. He tries to take it as a compliment.
ā€œThatā€™s okay,ā€ Steve assures. Absentmindedly, his thumb rubs soothing along Eddieā€™s jaw. It makes Eddie shiver, some outrageous amount of joy clawing into every nerve. Steve likes Eddie. He wants to kiss Eddie.
ā€œDo you want to try again?ā€
Eddie nods before the questions even out of his mouth. Steve smiles, all sunshine. This time when he draws Eddie in, he notices the way Eddie holds his breath ā€” the rigidness in his body.
Steve kisses him again, another short and soft one and then whispers against his lips, ā€œRelax.ā€
ā€˜Cos isnā€™t tonight just full of the parallels, Eddie thinks. He listens, tries to focus on how sweet Steveā€™s kiss is than his panicky heart, forcing out a breath between the kisses. His hands along Steveā€™s sides find a grip, grounding and good, and by the fourth kiss, he begins to feel a bit melty.
Itā€™s good. Itā€™s really good. Kissing Steve is top 5ā€“ nay, the top moment of his life so far. Somehow, itā€™s made all that much better knowing the build-up behind it. Knowing that Steve knows he isnā€™t just kissing him for a heat of the moment ā€” that Eddie wants kisses here, kisses before bed, in the morning, on dates. Eddie wants Steve.
And with the way he kisses, Eddieā€™s pretty sure Steve wants him just as bad.
It doesnā€™t take long for Steve to reach what Eddie decides is an ultra pretty fuckinā€™ state; lips swollen from kisses, cheeks flushed, hair a little mussed up. He bets he looks no better. The thought makes him grin, enough they have to break the kiss ā€˜cos Eddie canā€™t stop his stupid happy grin ā€˜cos shitā€” he actually gets to have this Steve.
ā€œWhat?ā€ Steve asks, somehow half heart-eyed and half suspicious at the mischief in Eddieā€™s eyes.
ā€œCan I... have a hickie?ā€
now with a part three !

some doodles that took me way too much effort; an updated design for Raal (aka demise when he was a mortal, he still uses that name when in disguise and modeled those forms after how he imagined he would look if he ever grew up as one) and a clunky doodle of both his blade spirits just after forging them

main takeaway from certain fan reactions to the finale is this:
the final scene with ankarna was so meaningful to the bad kids' arcs and how they made peace with being wronged by people they loved, and if all you can focus on is that the rat grinders didn't get much screentime, then you don't love dimension20 and you don't love this world: you want to be playing your own hs themed dnd campaign and you're mad the oc versions of the rat grinders you made up in your head acted ooc. these are not your characters and this is not their story.

learning abt friendship decay and "not reaching out to your friends for months at a time unprompted is not neurotypical behaviour" has me feeling a certain way
#experiencing some BIG FEELINGS OVER THIS REVELATION#listen i have never ever been bothered abt not seeing someone in a while or making time to talk to them bc in my mind its like not thst muc#time has passed. i mean it with every fibre of my being that when im like 'oh its ok even though we havent talked in a while and have our#own things going on it doesnt mean we're not friends anymore since we left things on a good note 8 months ago' i sincerely believe that#and for the longest time i just thought everybody makes peace with it at some point and not automatically assuming the other person doesnt#wanna talk to me anymore or smth. my longest lasting friendships are with ppl who work the same way i just thouhght that was normal#whatever organ everybody has that makes them reach out to their friends and plan hang outs i probably dont have it#i was already hesitant to ask out Alex bc i spend almost every waking hour doing smth that isnt talking to ppl unless they happen to be in#the vicinity. and at first it was bc i planned on making sure i had everything set up so i dont get stressed out and do it one at a time#but then i find out theres a friendship decay mechanic? and after dating and marrying someone you lose -10 friendship points for every#day u dont talk to them?? actually ive probably been losing friendship points this whole time without knowing bc of this?????#and i notice a lot of my own habits are also reflected in how i play bc ive been avoiding getting close to pierre and marnie since its more#of a professional relationship. like i know theyre npcs but im approaching it the way i would in real life its fucking nuts#i think its a little relieving im playing /as/ a character than myself bc as im playing im just making up little interactions in my head#than approaching things the way i would myself so it takes a bit of the stress off trying to put myself in there as a spectator. but well#being in a relationship demands a certain amount of energy even more so when theyre things that already take up energy on its own#like making time to talk to your partner and make sure they know theyre loved. i dont always have energy to put all my mental focus into it#and this is true for real life so im not really bothered by not dating anyone. but when its a game and i want my character to be with someo#and i know its fully optional and i know i could just apply the same logic to this i dont /want/ to. sometimes i want to experience#the same things other people do at least to a certain degree without the same emotional andmental stakes#no offense krobus#yapping#stardew#stardew valley#puppy plays sdv#sdv#this game has me by the ankles man

ok i swear i'm not going to talk about my breakup forever but the thing that just keeps bothering me:
i know that not getting what you need in a relationship is a COMPLETELY valid reason to end it but also. i feel like having a very vulnerable moment where i opened up about my struggles with intimacy and being relieved that i didn't have to keep doing things i wasn't comfortable with, then being dumped a YEAR later because of my lack of intimacy. is something i should be allowed to be very hurt by???
#ramble#sorry i'm currently in a phase of 'of course this happened' and 'oh i deserve this because i didn't give him what he wanted'#like he knew i was grey ace since the start. and he let it go on for SO long after i said i might be vaguely aro as well#if that's a dealbreaker for you bc of your love language then FINE but NIP IT IN THE BUD#he said he put it off because he didn't want to hurt my feelings but it only hurt me MORE#like you're an adult. grow the fuck up and communicate like one#holding your negative feelings in hoping somebody notices you're hiding them is what TEENAGERS do#and also i told him VERBATIM: i didn't think anyone would ever love me because i'm not comfortable with xyz. and he just confirmed that#idk i still feel like i'm being selfish because how could i expect someone to be in a relationship with me when i can't give them anything#also tmi but it's not like we did NOTHING. we still held hands/cuddled/were close. he just didn't have his tongue down my throat anymore#so obviously i'm assuming by 'missing affection' he just meant sex and as an ace person that just fucking sucks#also oh my god i HATED how much he would imply we were going to have sex. i would have to keep SAYING 'i don't like doing this'#he always spoke like it was inevitably going to happen and it didn't click how GROSS i felt about it until recently#also ALSO not to go there but i never told him WHY i struggle with it (it's sensory issues)#and like. what if something had happened to me that made it hard for me and i just wasn't ready to tell him. and then he did this#again sorry to overshare this is still just a lot for me and i have no idea if i'm being unreasonable#if you're ace and in a relationship please let me know bc i'm starting to think it'll end this way every single time
