pick your battles
#my art#my stuff#art#comic#original art#pride 2024#pride month#trans allegory..... or not even allegory. just trans .... ^_^#i technically cannot come out yet but i don't think the people who i need to not see this stalk my tumblr#i know they stalk everything else like my twitter and my instagram but this might be safe#so fuck it we yap. this is a comic about picking your battles#this is a comic about how for almost a year now everyone at home in singapore has been crying about my sore throat#my terrible fucked up voice. my you know. etc#i came out as not cis and using they/them pronouns in 2015 when i was 14#but no one ever used my pronouns. none of my classmates or friends even up until i left for college in 2020#from 2020 onwards every year i wrote an angry vulnreable essay about how much it hurts that they dont remember#and people would dm me apologizing on their hands and knees and commending my bravery#and then forget about it all over again. id ont mean 'they misgender me and then catch it and apologize and correct themselves'#i mean they dont even get that far#and so you might ask yourself: why have you kept them around all this time?#and i would have to explain that by pure bad luck i grew up in the most conservative close minded community#that all of my ex classmates that stayed in singapore are cishet and upper middle class and chinese singaporean#that i Am the trans person. that they were able to ignore me for a decade partially because there was no one else#so this is a comic about how there is dignity and grace in staying in the closet sometimes#about how not everyone deserves to see you at your happiest. about how some people can go fuck themselves#you know your truth and THATS THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS!!! YEAH!!! i love you

I would like to both thank and blame tumblr for the phrase "turn slow tigers into fast tigers with this one neat trick!" Like, I am grateful for it as a mnemonic that stuck that reminds me to go punch the punching bag* when I get too stressed out and can't function well from acute stress, but also I can no longer refer to it any other way because when I get that stressed I have trouble with words Which means today I was putting on my wrap gloves and my brother was looking at me like "what are you doing?" and all I could say was "turning slow tigers into fast tigers" *I think the original post was about taking a short run or tensing all your muscles and then releasing them? But my response to stress is very much not flight lol
#the person behind the yarn#it worked though!! and he's on tumblr so he knew what I meant#are they called wrap gloves? wrist wraps?? hand wraps???#the wraps like you'd wear under boxing gloves but in glove form themselves instead of a long strip of fabric#and with padding on the knuckles#back before I got sick I used to do what was pretty much MMA sparring#in that that was not the specific style we were learning but once a week we had sparring hour#and like half the people that came were MMA dudes#which also means I can say (I find this hilarious but my sister doesn't)#I have only been punched in the face by three people: a toddler. my sister. and a professional MMA fighter#that dude got SO MUCH GRIEF from the rest of the class for even barely hitting my face. it was hilarious#I was probably the youngest person in the sparring group by well over a decade they were super nice#today was my first time hitting the punching bag in like...8-9 months?#I stayed away from it while I was anemic because that seemed a bad idea#and it was great!!! my new meds meant I could use the punching bag for more than like two minutes at a time!#and it didn't skyrocket my heart rate!!! or at least not as badly!!!#so I think I will get back into using it more often

as someone who could be considered an "experienced roleplayer" the term "intermediate roleplay" is so funny to me. like yeah sorry im in the roleplay midgame i haven't gotten my roleplay BiS gear yet
#measuring rp experience by years and whatnot has always been sorta wild to me tbh#like. yeah i guess if you phrase me running a half dozen different tumblr askblogs over the years as a decade of experience#it sounds a lot more impressive than saying ive been on the internet for too long#yin-thoughts#no shade to yall who use said terms mind u. i get it. it's just funny to me

so I'm seeing a lot of vitriol rn but mostly I'm also seeing a lot of followers and friends being unable to cope with the death threats and the anon hate so I'd just like to remind you that it's okay to turn off anons. Do it! It's quiet and peaceful on the other side and sure you lose those happy anons too but it's worth it, trust me. Another thing is if reading about other people getting hate or seeing people answer/reply to hateful shit stirrers is affecting you, unfollow! It's okay if it's a long time mutual, they'll understand. If you're friends, you'll still be friends. Or if the idea of unfollowing makes you sad, just put them in the filtered content list. It's inbuilt into tumblr (under the general settings tab) and you just take their url and copy paste it in there, and all their posts would be filtered until you're feeling open to seeing their stuff again. there is no shame in doing this honestly, it doesn't make you a shitty friend or a mutual or a blog, and I'd recommend this to big and small blogs who are finding it hard to not feel anxious anytime they visit their dash
#if you're like me and spend maybe an hour online#you deserve to have a dash that you want to see#you're not use to anyone if you're shaking like a leaf at the prospect of opening tumblr#I've been on this site for over a decade and this is the first time I've had anons off#and while it does piss me off truly#i know what I can and can't take#so yeah#meow speaks#hope this helps someone#I myself have unfollowed blocked more than ever this week#but I've also had to put a lot of mutuals into the filtered tab list because I just can't take reading some of the hateful stuff they get#and I know so many friends who have done the same

It's been such a bad frickin week man
#i talk#heard bad news about family stuff too on top of everything else#one of those weeks where it feels like things are just absolute garbage#hope next week is better#it should be better for at least a few things for me but man. I'm so worn out#and this tumblr ai bs is the final straw#I've been using this stupid website for over a decade#and I know there are apparently ways to back it up and download things but I have no idea how to do that#and I shouldnt HAVE to do that#why are CEOs so stupid why is everyone so up their own asses about ai and selling other people's info#its always money money money I HATE IT#I hate being angry but I'm just so angry and tired#I wish life was kinder

people who dislike grace kelly and make a point of having that known sometimes seem exactly like people who dislike taylor swift (i don't like ts either) but put waaaaaay too much effort into it, in the sense that at the end of the day you just end up thinking that they definitely need to chill. the only difference is that grace kelly is not presently generating 77.5 tons of co2 per tour and also she's been dead for over 40 years. she's not talented!! she's a bad actress!! she's only known for the clothes she wore, how could she have any talent!! she snatched that oscar from judy garland!! she's just pretty but she has a boring face!! she could never be like katharine hepburn!! okay... and? when you throw these childish insults at her you end up sounding really childish too. i swear all you have to do is look the other way, no one's putting a gun on your head and forcing you to watch her whole filmography. and if someone IS putting a gun on your head and forcing you to watch high society 1956 repeatedly then well. that's not really her fault either. i promise grace kelly cannot hurt you from the afterlife <3
#generally speaking i always think people get way too butthurt over oscar results from the previous century#i couldn't give two shits over who won and who lost and who was nomited and who wasn't#on this day and age it makes no difference whatsoever not enough for us to get personally offended on the behalf of people who have been#dead for decades#it doesn't sound very productive to me#lmao i'm laughing rn cause if i said this on 2013 old hollywood tumblr i would have been MAULED#anyway if you want my opinion i think grace kelly is perfectly fine#she might not be the greatest actress of the 20th century i guess. which doesn't mean she's bad. not at all#but i wasn't aware that every single person needed to be the greatest actor of the century#lmao she's fine she's nice she gives you a very peaceful feeling when she's onscreen. it's sweet#personal

ok here's what I don't understand about twitter. you follow me, I go to check your page and see if I want to follow back, but your account is private so I can't see what you tweet about, so how do I know if your actually for the things I'm posting or if you're hate-following to be able to see what I post if I go private?
how does this shit even work?
#cleo.txt#you know how long it took me to work out tumblr?!#and it's been over a decade since i've had to get used to a new environment

New blog to have a separate dashboard for trans things, because it gets upsetting having it on my main all the time.
You can call me Leek
I am transmasc. he/him
I'll update this post more later but I just wanted something as I get my footing so people don't think I'm a bot
#i mostly talk in tags so anything i have to say will be there#also ive been on tumblr for over a decade i just like having separate dashboards#the day they allow us to mute blogs or do separate pages with specific blogs i will probably transfer all my blogs back into one#trans men and women (and all other trans people) are equals. infighting is a plague on our community#if the word transandrophobia offends you you don't wanna be here#also its decently probable i wont post here a ton due to it being a separate blog. i'll come and go

Well, tumblr, you've made progress: I can now post incredibly-old drafts from my phone app, but I can't tag them with anything and have it save properly. #sigh
#I'll take it though#anything without a tag from me is just a draft that has been saved for literal years#more than half a decade#at least#tumblr doesn't know how to handle it#because who would be crazy enough to have over 3000 drafts??#inappropriate use of tumblr#by me#(or perfectly in line with the art - fandom - chaos tagline)

Nah, this is the last fuckin' straw. I've uninstalled the app, left a bad 1 star review explaining these tone-deaf updates are killing the site and I encourage you all to do the same. I guess I'm desktop only for now but even the desktop site is on thin ice.
#rant#I've been on tumblr over a decade and this last year or two they've gotten EGREGIOUSLY worse#I feel so fucking trolled by the “Snooze Tumblr Live for 30 days”#“hey Liz what do you primarily use your new custom built $1500+ gaming PC for?”#I guess fucking girlblogging why do you ask#I also think they have bought 5 star reviews from people because randomly in the midst of all the 1-star reviews by jaded people#who have been around for over a decade#there's scattered 5 star reviews made by obvious bots with feedback saying nothing but “good”#god I'm so fucking sick of getting shafted by corporate conglomerates literally everywhere I turn

twitter is so much more fun than tumblr these days
#i spend less and less time over here and more and more time over there#lmao also it's funny to me that the two websites feel geographically separated by an ocean#even though they are just two tabs right next teach other in my browser#on tumblr i really do feel like a stranger in a foreign land#even though i've been colonizing/occupying this space for over a decade at this point#i'm not giving up on my colony here -- i will hold out until the very end#but matters elsewhere in my domain demand more of my attention these days#in a way twitter today kinda reminds me of tumblr from 12 years ago#i've even accidentally run into a few old mutuals on twitter that i used to follow back in the party hats and j*ckboots days
