#but the og post isn’t on dashes

[clingylilhoneybee]

The og post showed up on my dash! (my settings are by recent posts not best first)

Ooh yay! My first iteration of it def didn’t but it seems like it’s 50/50 for this one

[atlabeth]

now that the dust has cleared from the chaos for me irl, i want to officially thank you all for 3000 followers!! because wow. where do i even start?

this isn't a milestone i thought i would ever reach. i made this blog during my junior year of high school when i was bored as hell in online school, not knowing what would come of it, and honestly not expecting anyone to read anything i’ve written. i exclusively wrote avatar fics (kind of embarrassing that a series i started at the beginning of my blog still isnt finished huh?) because it was what i had been watching most recently. i started to gain some recognition, made some friends, and slowly but surely i carved out my little corner of the internet. and now, 3 years, 3000 followers, and almost 500,000 words later, i’m going into my junior year of college with some of the best online friends a girl could ask for (shoutout to my day 1 @simplysolo for still being around and still being the best ever, and shoutout to all my other tumblr friends that have deactivated over the years</3 i miss you guys) a whole array of fandoms that i’ve dabbled in, and a newly discovered thing for middle aged men. cool 

i truly cannot thank you all enough. i’ve always been a writer, but this blog has given me a sorely needed creative outlet and made me more confident in my writing skills than ever. at the end of the day i’m just writing silly little x reader fics, but i’ve truly had so much fun doing it! every single fictional man im in love with is also in love with me isn’t that crazy!!!

a special, extended shoutout to the loveliest mutuals i’ve picked up over the years. i wouldn’t be half the writer i am and i wouldn’t have half as much fun on here without you all. @simplysolo for being around since the beginning and truly being the greatest person on this app, i love you intensely, @sokkadora for being another one of my ogs (we dont talk anymore but i see you every so often on my dash and you’re doing great!!) @mcallmestiles for being one of the first avatar fics i ever read, traitor encouraged me to be a better writer and i hope you’re doing well with your medical career!! @tangledinlove for being my most famous mutual, the kindest person in the world, and being brought together through the power of lockwood, @giyuji and @milkiane who are both inactive but who i have to tag because i love them and i hope they’re doing well; naomi you got me into the grishaverse and liane we were in the trenches of the stranger things revival together, @boneblushed for dealing with so much but still being phenomenal and lovely in every way, @tommymcartney for being so sweet all the time, my biggest cheerleader and encouraging my insanity in every fandom ive been a part of, @nghtwngs for being the only person who loses it over nikolai lantsov as much as i do, to all my new/more recent mutuals @hotchfiles @ma1dita @moowithmidnight @emiliehornby @supercutszns i can't wait to get to know or keep getting to know you!!! you're all so lovely!!! and all the mutuals i don’t talk to as much as i should, i love you all and cherish you in my heart regardless of if we talk every day or have never said a single word to each other!! i don’t want to tag you all because i don’t want to bother you, but if you’re looking at this and thinking am i talking about you, i am. i love you. it takes a village and im so lucky to have you all as mine 

i can’t believe it’s been 3 years, i can’t believe i’m halfway done with college, and i can’t believe we hit 3,000. truly, from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for reading my fics and letting me be some small part of your lives. i can’t wait to write more for you all. keep a lookout for my 3k celebration post!

[wyrdle]

An AI Clavell + AI Arven AU i’ve been musing, but will probably never draw to its fullest. Snippets under the cut:

CW: character death, grief, poor mental health, suicide (OG Clavell’s)

Summary: A young Arven tragically dies from falling at the steep cliffs of Cabo Poco. With no reasons to stay at their new home, the Zerotrio stay holed up in Area Zero. Despite Clavell's initial hesitance of the project, and even desire to leave the place post tera orb project... Being above ground hurts/reminds them all but especially Clavell of what could have been.

So. The three profs dive into their research, it's still focused on bringing Pokemon over, but there is a hint of a hidden hope that they could find and save Arven. ( It's a fool's dream, they know, what with the complications that would follow... but they hope regardless.) Area Zero becomes both a  prison and sanctuary for all of them... though it's probably the worst for Clavell. Eventually, the respective Miraidon and Koraidon’s kill Sada and Turo, and Clavell is left all alone in his self imposed prison.

He eventually makes AI versions of himself, and even AI Arven (no memories, just an approximation). Imagine: Young Arven’s haunting laughter throughout Area Zero, since it’s his playground. AI Turo and Sada are harder to finish, and OG Clavell eventually succumbs to his grief via suicide. Survived by him is his AI, and of course, the time machine that needs to be stopped. PPP is a manifestation of a grieving professor Clavell, not fuelled by personal ambition, only desperation to have his family back.

Additional dialogue bits of AI Clavell I wrote:

AI Clavell: " The professor... was not always like this. He once wanted to leave the crater to live out the rest of his life. He had wanted to be a part of the academy even, with the dreamy goal of becoming director."

AI Clavell: "I think the professor would have much preferred to live with Arven away from the crater... had the boy..." AI Clavell pauses, as if to collect himself. "... had the boy not died."

AI Clavell: "Although I am not the professor, and that is not his son, he is as dear to me as he was to the grieving professors. "

AI Clavell: "Arven's death made leaving the crater hard, and I think... being in isolation with professors Sada and Turo affected his judgement. After witnessing their deaths firsthand... ruined his heart."

AI Clavell: "Now I carry with me the professor's memories, and boundless love for the rest of Paldea's people and Pokemon. I cannot comprehend the intricacies of human guilt and emotion, but had the professor not been consumed by his grief and trauma... I do not think he would want the time machine to destroy Paldea's ecosystems."

AI Clavell: "It is your right, of course, to judge him and cement that as your opinion of him. But please understand, Professor Clavell was ultimately a kind man... trapped first by his grief for Arven, then his love for his dearest friends. Area Zero is as much a prison for me as it was for him."

AI Clavell: "I sincerely hope you will assist me in destroying the time machine... and allow the original Professor Clavell to rest in peace. Please... for Arven's sake and the Professor's late memory, defeat me."

PPP CLAVELL: I 4m s0 cl05e t0.... t0... brinGIng them b4ck.. y-y0u wi11 n0t st4nd in my w4y!

PPP Clavell upon defeat: I 0nly ever w4nted them b4ck... whY is p4r4dise s0 cl0se yet s0 f4r? The AI w4nt5 to le4ve thi5 pl4ce, but we c4nnot, I- c4nnot, I mu5t n0t.

“I ju5t w4nted- my friend5- my f4mi1y- b4ck. H-help me- “

Slowly, the AI professor crumpled to the floor, knees hitting the obsidian tiles with an anticlimatic thud. The small robot boy who had been hiding by Nemona's side let go of her hand, dashing forward to tackle the now powerless protection protocol in a hug.

"4rven-" it manages to sob, mimicking shallow breaths and shedding crystalline flecks till its light blue eyes were restored.

-----

I have some other stray notes about how Paldea’s very different in this au too, but eh. This isn’t going anywhere besides my vivid imagination haha

Wing Tier List - Primarch Version

So, because my partners encouraged me to write this and there seems to be a few mutuals who are interested, I’ve compiled my Wing Tier List for the Primarchs. This is inspired by this post about an exchange between Jaghatai Khan and Mortarion shortly after Mortarion ascended to be a Daemon Primarch. I am in no way an expert in 40k tabletop rules or lore - these rulings were made mostly off of Vibes with a dash of the lore that I know - or of wings on fictional characters. I’m just someone who has spent way too much time thinking about this.

I should also mention that, while it is impossible for me to be Normal about liking Sanguinius, this did not influence the actual rankings.

(I’m going to try to use official art as best I can.)

So, let’s get to it!

Contender: Sanguinius of the Blood Angels

Because to start off with anyone else would be heresy. His wings are so well-known that he carries the nickname “the Angel” among his brothers as well as the other Legions. Jokingly and lovingly called Hawk-Boy by fandom. Commonly-known in canon as one of the two most prettiest primarchs. Wings so significant that when I went to google “which primarchs have wings” to make sure I wasn’t missing someone Obvious, I got this:

Yeah, I didn’t even say Sanguinius in my search, but Google just Knew. (And also, thank you so much to @plagueplanethq​ for helping me fact-check how many Primarchs actually have wings.)

Anyways. Sanguinius is first to be evaluated because he’s the OG winged-primarch. He’s also happens to be the only Loyalist on this list.

Analysis: When setting out to do the look for Sanguinius, the original artists leaned in super hard to the “Angel” keyword and not so much the “vampire” part. If you showed me a picture of Sanguinius before I was into 40k and asked me what he is, I would have never guessed “vampire.” I have seen these sorts of wings hundreds of times. Are they nicely done? Oh definitely. Does he make it look good? Absolutely. How unique is it? ...not really? He’s an angel, and has white wings. The artists understood the assignment and did a great job, but this isn’t exactly new:

7 / 10

++

Contender: Angron of the World Eaters

Analysis: When a dude has a nickname like “the Red Angel,” well, of course he’ll eventually get wings. I was a little worried at first that this was going to be too much “traditional demon or devil” wings, but I do like some of the detail on the model! Doing skin and/or scales for the wings also feels more practical for someone pledged to Khorne, because it feels like a chance of less maintenance than if feathers get all messy. (IRL birds will go take baths and such when they need it, but is Angron going to bother? That’s up for debate.) The spikes are very nice, and the few holes in the wings add some personality. It’s also a good reminder that they’re flying because magic and because the Warp laughs in the face of science. Consider me pleasantly surprised:

7 / 10

++

Contender: Magnus the Red of the Thousand Sons

Analysis: Feathers make sense for the guy pledged to a god who has birb motifs going on. I really appreciate the fact that these feathers are distinct, and have a bit of character. Also, honorable mention to hexygoblin‘s paint job here, which is stunning. He’s definitely got the best feathers on wings. I also feel like Tzeentch would appreciate a bit of style:

8 / 10

++

Contender: Fulgrim of the Emperor’s Children

Analysis: It is truly a shame that we don’t have a more current model for Daemon Primarch Fulgrim. I am forced to go off of the vibe of the model and that first image of him screaming to try to make a wing assessment. This looks fairly standard for what one might think of demons or devils, and I gotta say, I’m not impressed? The second drawing suggests feathers, which would make sense for the Phoenix. Mostly, I would expect the primarch who pledged themself to the Lord of Excess to be more... excessive? I’ve seen some cool fanart for different wing interpretations for Fulgrim, but I’m trying to go off of ‘canon’ as much as I can here:

5 / 10

(I will have to reassess one day when he gets a new Daemon Primarch model. Maybe we don'thave one yet because it isn't perfect.)

++

Contender: Mortarion of the Death Guard

Analysis: I’m definitely getting moth vibes from the way the wings are done on the model. This model was also designed a bit more naturally to look like he’s flying. Artist took the prompt of “decay, so probably flies” and gave him flies on the model, which means bonus wings. But this isn’t a “how many wings” contest, this is for “coolest wings.” (Mortarion would win for sheer quantity of wings because of all of the flies.) There’s no way he’s flying with those wings without Warp Shenanigans. I feel like these are the most unique out of all of them. The paint job and also how the wings looks like they’re trying to be tatters also suggests the futile fight against entropy, which is the Lord of Decay’s bag:

9 / 10

++

Honorable mention (since he’s not a primarch) is Vashtorr, because I wanted a 10 / 10 on this list:

Coolest wings, for sure. Should they be able to fly? Absolutely not. But Chaos Gods don’t care what you think is logical.

10 / 10

*drumroll* WINNER OF THE [PRIMARCH] TIER LIST IS...........

MORTARION!

eras of tumblr i could give hour-long Ted Talks about

(only including eras i participated in, not what i’ve lived through second-handedly. these are what i personally remember seeing on my dash, i’m sure there’s plenty i missed. This is an ongoing list/not fixed/subject to future edits.)

2015 gravity falls 

the rise of sexyman bill cipher 

depravity falls and putting 12 yr old characters in violent guro situations 

alex hirsch worship

billdip discourse

the diehard thirst for Gruncle Ford 

“i want to fuck that dorito”

2015/16 Black Butler

SebaCiel discourse

Grelle discourse (like, i don’t even know how to elaborate, but if you were there you would remember how people were fighting over her characterization in all different directions. Which is funny because, love her or hate her, she is barely even in the show lol)

The needlessly intense sjw vs anti-sjw/ fiction doesn’t effect reality/ shipping fighting

can’t quantify this, but i swear 80% of the fans were ex-hetalia fans 

Black butler 2 being either loved or hated, while book of circus was almost unanimously loved

the Scott Freeman incident...

no one giving a fuck about the female characters

Yana/Jay Michael Tatum worship

2016 Undertale

Sans undertale sexyman rise

the most raw video game soundtrack of all time

papyton

no one agrees how to draw undyne, but we all agree that she’s gay as fuck

(This is a personal anecdote, but i actually made a friend in highschool bc i drew undertale fanart on the board at latin class nd she added to it the next day, i added to it the next day and eventually we met up and it was so adorable)

“get dunked on”

2016-17 hamilton, heathers, great comet, dear evan hansen, be more chill musical theater insanity

rip tumblr user galactibun

The Hamilton craze breathing new life into the 1776 musical fandom

Most bizarre fanfic aus seen on tumblr thus far (hamilton)

The great comet Tony snubs

BMC and DEH blowing up, despite most fans only caring about the characters, totally ignoring the plot.

“Miku binder Thomas Jefferson”

No one giving a fuck about “The Hamilton Mixtape”

The anime fans collective salt over YOI winning anime of the year 2016

Not in this time period, but the Killing Stalking fans despising the ending en mass several years later.

Free! was also huge as the second season concluded not long before, but wasn’t receiving new updated in Realtime like the other three.

honestly? i mostly just remember people drawing some of the most beautiful fan art of the characters and not bothering to follow the plots

2015-2016 steven universe discourse peak craziness 

There are no words, looking back this all feels like a fever dream

Insane fan-theories (as in- even for Tumblr, these theories were very out there)

Pink diamond character derailment

“watching steven universe is the opposite of eating pussy” 

Gemosonas

fusion = sex???

“it’s over isn’t it” single-handedly inspiring some of the most beautiful fan art to come out of the show; "Stronger than you” def inspired much more fan-creations, but they were nowhere near as good imo

That terrible lily peet video that sent a tidal wave of fandom-fighting 

Concrete

Nicki Minaj guest appearance 

the porn avalanche predating the 2018 nsfw ban

2015/16- My personal earliest memories of really getting into tumblr, and witnessing the tail-end of the Hetalia reign

2016- the end of Homestuck

2016- the epidemic of overwatch porn

2016- Does Jumin Han is gay?

2017- RWBY’s nosedive in quality from season 3 to 4, losing the majority of the fanbase

2018 Boyfriend to Death civil war (Gatobob v ElectricPuke)

2018- Detroit become Human drops and the robot-fucking gatekeeping 

2018- the Game of thrones/Endgame joint disaster ending melt down

2019- Sub-par Omens

2020- the Dead by Daylight community rioting when Pyramid Head’s ass got nerfed

2020- Cyberpunk 2077 is released and is torn apart almost instantly. Looking back by my approximations post were made up of- 10% people who were actually playing the games and enjoying themselves, 20% people who were playing the game and WEREN’T having fun, 55% People who never bought/played the game who were making up crazy glitches for clout, 15% hardcore pornography of characters you’d never seen before. (I’m quite salty about this bc I worked at GameStop at this time and had people constantly talking about glitches in casual conversation and I just know most of these bitches were LYING.)

20??- don’t remember the exact dates, but phase 3 marvel was un-escapable at this time

2020/21- Succession blows up

2022 Ghost bc blows up on tiktok, the fandom already sizable on tumblr only goes up from here

[eusuntgratie]

I’m going to admit to being a complete dumbasssssss……. Ok, here goes, for the LONGEST time, I thought your pic, the big one on your page, the big drawing (I don’t know what that one’s called, rem, I’m a dumbass,) was Nolan Patrick!!!!! And THEN,,,,,thennnnnnnn, I saw a post you you put up awhile back that it’s Bucky? Is that who it is? I don’t watch marvel stuff. Is Bucky Marvel? Superheroes stuff at the very least {{hand waves}} 🧐 all I know is that I found out it wasn’t Nolpat and had a small breakdown 😹 okkkkk. That’s it. That’s the comment. Yes, I’m embarrassed for me too. {{{{alsoooooo, I still pretend it’s Nolpat never mind Nolpat’s hair isn’t that dark, etc 💀}}}}

Regardless, I love YOU and your TKNP writing!! Yes, I know it’s 2024 and TKNP no longer “lives” but they DO. In my mind! Delusional dumbass, rem 🥴 but alsoooooo Nolpat visited the PEG for TK in the year of of 2024 sooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!! 💕💕💕

ajsdf;lkasdlfkjasf hey nonnie!

you are not a dumbass - we just all see our blorbos everywhere, don't we!

my header IS bucky barnes (not nolpat), lovingly drawn by the incredible @luckycl0ve (his patreon is hereeeeee!).

bucky is from marvel, yes! he's my og blorbo and half of my first ship (stucky) that i was really feral for (and the first ship i wrote for, though i haven't written them much). i fell for him in the captain america movies, particularly captain america: the winter soldier.

thank you so much! i still love tknp and i'm not done writing them i don't think. i've got two wips for them i hope to finish once i get through some other projects.

and yes, the dash was ALIVE after that tweet. the things i would do for a photo from that locker room!

If, like me, you are still spinning about it, definitely go check out Play Me That Song One More Time that the lovely @puckingfabulous just dropped!!

my askbox is always open - come say hi or ask me about my wips <3

2. Are there any popular fandom OTPs you only BroTP?*

21. What are your thoughts on crack ships?

22. Popular character you hate?

I FORGOT THE ANSWERS TO THESE WERE SITTING IN MY NOTES APP FOR DAYS OOPS anyway tysm for the ask <3

2. Are there any popular fandom OTPs you only BroTP?

hm, the only thing coming to mind rn is spones? spock and bones are lovely but i really just like their friendship and the way they push each other’s buttons. but like in a friend way. also i’m a spirk girlie. now, I HAVE read kirk/spock/bones before, and while I prefer k/s I did like that. both spock and bones adore jim so much and I can see the dynamic working well.

21. What are your thoughts on crack ships?

I think they’re hilarious lmao. canon is not the end all be all for me, and i love when fandom spins something out of nothing (provided it doesn’t take over the whole tag and prevent me from seeing other stuff i want to see). an example: about a year ago or so my dash was full of kristalia (kristoph/dahlia, ace attorney) posts with them in a mutually resentful lavender marriage both trying to fuck (over?) phoenix. i love two haters getting together out of mutual spite for a common enemy. combine their unhinged minds and you get sheer chaos. it was incredible.

22. Popular character you hate?

i’m struggling so hard here because lately i’ve found characters i dislike to be more boring than actively bad (i’m so sorry but worf falls into this category for meeeeeee i just don’t care about klingon politics.) If we’re talking active hatred okay uhhh throwing it back to my OG fandoms, I cannot stand amy pond (doctor who). karen gillian is a good actress—this isn’t a critique of her it’s the scripts. I found her relentless flirting with the doctor frustrating as hell. seemed clear to me she and rory did not have an open relationship and she wanted to cheat. it made me uncomfortable. rory’s so sweet I just felt terrible he got stuck w someone who can’t be honest w him. I also don’t like how moffat’s writing made river song’s story tie into the ponds’. I enjoy river, and felt that everything w her being their kid was clumsy. I preferred having her origins a mystery.

5 comfort characters & 5 tags

Thank you so much for tagging me @sonderlativ​

I put this under a cut because it ended up being a litter longer and I don't want to just put a wall of a post on someone’s dash. So, in no particular order, my comfort characters are:

Nero (Devil May Cry)

It was a head to head race to the finish line between Nero and Vergil but I ultimately picked Nero simply because I can relate to him more. Absent fathers, not a whole lot of friends growing up, more or less ignored/disliked by most people around you, wacky uncles. I just like him a lot. And if I keep talking, I might dive into some very personal stuff that I’m not necessarily comfortable discussing openly.

Princess Zelda (Breath of the Wild, Tears of the Kingdom)

*quick disclaimer: I won’t mention anything about TotK here because it’s only been out for little over a week and I don’t want to spoil anything for people who haven’t completed the game yet*

Boy, where do I even start? Zelda spends the majority of her childhood and teenage years under extreme pressure to awaken her bloodline’s abilities and while she understands that it’s important, she just wants to study the ancient Sheikah tech. She wants to do what makes her happy but can’t because the entire world depends on her. Which leaves her severly stressed and if that isn’t a mood and a half I don’t what is. Wanting to do something you love but not being able to. While this is not my favourite incarnation of the character (that honour goes to Skyward Sword Zelda), she is definitely the one I understand the best in terms of stress and heavy expectations.

Erik (Dragon Quest 11)

Words cannot express how much I love Erik. He’s literally the best character in the entire game. His arc is amazing and heartbreaking. He is there from almost the beginning and stands with the main character without question, leaving behind his life of crime for not entirely altruistic reasons at first but staying because he really does want to help. I love how he rolls with the punches, looks at all the weirdness of a JRPG and goes ‘this is so weird, you know that? But we’re doing it anyway’. And he is a real doofus at some points. 

(I also happen to ship him with the MC).

Natural Harmonia Gropius (Pokémon Black/White, Black2/White2)

Ok, here we are. My OG blorbo. The one I’ve had for far longer than the others. This man has been living in my head rent free ever since I first played Gen 5. At the core of his being, N just wants to do good and help pokémon, protect them from abuse but the man who raised him just uses him for his own gains and made him think that all pokémon who are not living in the wilds away from humans are being mistreated. Over the course of the first game, he begins to understand that this might not be as true as he thought it was through his friendship/rivalry with the player character and seeing how much their team loves them. Then years later, N is able to stand up to his father and not only saves the new protagonist from being killed but also helps to end Team Plasma’s plans for good (more or less anyway, his arrival did enable part of the climatic battle). Also, he can literally talk to pokémon and understand them. I just adore his development over the games so much.

And last but not least, I’m gonna cheat a little and include an OC of mine because you can’t stop me

Morgan Julian Hale (D&D, and so many other things at this point)

Morgan started out as my very first dnd character and has since then cemented himself as a personal favourite, having been put into a lot of my favourite worlds over time. When I wrote his original backstory, I didn’t realise how much a self-insert I made him. I only figured that out when a friend literally pointed it out to me. Morgan was raised by a single mother, is a social outcast and not really a people person. Give him a book and he’ll be good for the rest of the day, leave him around people and he’ll shut down faster than you can blink. The last part being incredibly funny when considering that he’s a sorcerer, a class that uses the charisma stat primarily. He’s also being hunted by a cult that wants his magical dragon blood. I don’t know what part of my psyche is represented by that and at this point I’m too afraid to ask. (Also, the picrew didn’t have an option for pointed ears but just fyi, he’s a half-elf)

Honourable mentions: obv Vergil who just barely didn’t make it, Byleth from Fire Emblem - Three Houses and Dorian Pavus from Dragon Age Inquisition.

As for tagging, @queenmuzz​ and since I don’t know anyone else well enough to feel comfortable tagging them I’m just gonna open this up to anyone who wants to jump in.

I see this post on my dash all the time, especially from my Humanities Major mutuals, and I appreciate the sentiment behind it, but I also think that it conveniently ignores that a solid portion of Humanities fields have either passive or active colonialist roots and that either actively or passively collaborated with the Nazis in WWII. (They either thought that Hitler Wasn’t So Bad, they were in agreement with some of the eugenicist policies, they covered for their colleagues who thought that Hitler Wasn’t So Bad, or they were silent. There were brave people in the Humanities at the time, don’t get me wrong, but it isn’t the easy majority people want it to be.) 

The field of Classics is steeped in colonialism and racism. Celtic Studies is DRENCHED in it. Germanic studies is drenched in it. There’s an entire argument over renaming Anglo-Saxon studies because of how ridiculously racist it is. Anthropology is drenched in it. Historical linguistics. Take a look at many of the massive early names involved in these fields and you’ll see a number of active Nazis, eugenicists, and colonialists. Everyone’s favorite medievalist gentleman scholar (and, laying my cards on the table, one of my own favorite scholars and role models), JRR Tolkien, notoriously excluded Stuart Hall from the field of Early English studies on account of him being a black man. And, if you ask many modern scholars about them, they will still make excuses for them. 

Like, it wasn’t that long ago, comparatively, when you had scholars going out and trying to do phrenological studies of people’s heads. Or folklorists comparing the stories of “primitive peoples” (including from closed indigenous traditions) against “civilized peoples” in order to try to prove how these stories were passed down. (This is a callout post for Frazer and Dumézil in particular.) 

In Celtic Studies, besides some rumored Nazis that exist in the field to this day (who I won’t say out loud, out of concern for litigation, even though, as a field, it’s common knowledge), we have Jan de Vries (we share him with Germanic Studies), Mühlhausen (whose legacy is predominately being “The Folklorist Who Used His Position To Spy on the Donegal Coastline in Order To Plan An Invasion”) and Pokorny (who, while being of Jewish descent himself, was also incredibly antisemitic), and those are the ones that are easily verifiable. To this day, go on a LOT of allegedly anti-racist medievalists’ Twitters and Facebooks and see how they cower the second they actually have to call out racism in their own fields, when they’re not being actively racist and complaining about The Wokes ruining their fields. (Because it was so much NICER back in the 1940s-1950s, when you could just openly exclude scholars of color and sexually harass your grad students, as opposed to doing it on the down low.) 

And I want to emphasize, as a Humanities scholar and, specifically, as a medievalist, I am going to fight like HELL for our relevance, but I’m also going to fight anyone who pretends that being able to quote Marcus Aurelius means that we are somehow magically more enlightened. It’s useful to have more perspectives, it’s useful to have those kinds of critical thinking skills, but it is not a magical anti-Nazi laser beam, and pretending like it is whitewashes both the historical and present state of the academic landscape, as someone who’s seen the way that scholars of color have been treated. (I would point out, in particular, the particular vitriol levied against Dr. Mary Rambaran-Olm, who has also called out the OG post on Twitter.) 

[cloud-hc]

You know I don’t think I’ve made an detailed post regarding why I believe Cloud is a more selfish / self-interested person than the “hero” type. Which considering he is the protagonist of OG, 7RE and AC - I don’t know if that does turns peoples heads in curiosity or think I way off, but it wouldn’t be an invalid reaction. After all, Cloud took part in saving the world - how is he self-interested? 

Well, I’m going to answer that because dash is busy feeding me validation today. Keep liking those posts, the more I talk LMAO.

But for real - this isn’t my first time writing Cloud but I do feel like this round is when I’ve seriously stopped to study every single part of. I can’t tell you what first drew my attention to this - I do know I did think it was just part of the whole SOLDIER persona he wears that isn’t his true self, but I feel like I have valid reason to think otherwise at this point. Let’s go back to his childhood - to the promise in specific.

I don’t know the Japanese context so I am only basing these observations based off the English translations of the game, but in both OG and 7RE.. Cloud does not mention wanting to be a hero once. He mentions he wants to go into SOLDIER and to be the best - like Sephiroth. Being the best and looking up to a war hero does not parallel to wanting to be a hero, unlike Zack who says very specifically he wants to be a hero. In OG when Tifa is helping Cloud put himself back together in the lifestream he finally confesses his motivations for wanting to join SOLDIER - to impress Tifa and to get her to notice him.

Both of those goals - to be better than Sephiroth and to impress Tifa are self-interested. They’re about HIM - not about heroics or helping other people. That is pushed on him by Tifa and others, Tifa by requesting that promise to come save her if she’s ever in need ( keep in mind Cloud is confused and puzzled by that before eventually agreeing ; again, I don’t think heroism was on his mind - she just assumed he wanted to be a hero ) and AVALANCHE in 7RE honestly would not stop breathing down his throat about telling him what his motivations are. No wonder he got fucking annoyed. you’re doing this because you care! you’re going to be joining us! He’s a merc - that’s it, and they aren’t listening. He isn’t helping them because he cares about the Planet. He’s just doing his job.

During the events of OG, it’s later revealed that the Sephiroth cells inside of him demanding the reunion. That’s why he was the one hunting Sephiroth down in OG - because he didn’t have a choice. Cloud is weak to the Jenova cells in his body and those cells manipulated him into believing it was his idea and his own motivation to go after Sephiroth when it wasn’t - he was being lead like a moth to a flame and helpless to deviate from that.. even knowing they were horribly, horribly outmatched. He wasn’t out to save the world - his body and mind literally wasn’t of his own autonomy. 

Even the things he does for other people are of his own self-interest. If he doesn’t want to do something, he flat out will not do it or he will dig his heels in the entire time he’s dragged. The ones he helps are because he wants to help them - not because it’s the right thing to do, but because he - in specific - cares about that person in specific. Someone who Cloud actually cares about has a higher chance of getting him to budge on things he isn’t crazy about to him even willingly going out of his way to do things for them because he cares about them - while he would not do the same action for another often and usually not without compensation. Even the orphan children of the slums couldn’t get out of paying him at least three gil for helping kill some monsters - ORPHAN CHILDREN!

Even him caring about someone runs a risk of that not being enough. In early OG, Tifa wants to keep a closer eye on him and wants him to stay around AVALANCHE longer. She found him in a horrible condition and when she asked about the past, he freaked out - whipping his sword everywhere. He isn’t stable - something is wrong and she can’t ask him about it without triggering him, so she’s keeping an eye on him. He finishes his gig with AVALANCHE and just wants to leave, declaring he doesn’t care about shit, much less the Planet, and none of it his his problem. It takes Tifa calling him out on walking out on his childhood friend along with pulling the promise back up to pull at nostalgia to finally make him stop - it took going there to make him just listen.

If you really look at Cloud’s actions - so much is lead about his own personal gain or what matters to him directly verses the hero-type of wanting to help others because it’s the moral and right thing to do. I’m not declaring that ALL of his choices are completely self-serving - totally not. He has done good thing, and he’s done bad things. But his core self is one that bases his actions that are more in his interest than the interest of others.

ender I’m not going to lie, the Ranboo stream today has made me feel very down and anxious about the dsmp. the fact that there has been so much planned thrown out the window because of months upon months of scheduling issues doesn’t bode well with me

Not to be parasocial, but remember how psyched Ranboo used to be about lore??? I’m sad man, sorry to vent to you lol

yeah i totally get that. tbf, it’s been kind of obvious based off of just how many plot points have been dropped w c!ranboo even without him specifying. part of me wishes that cc’s would just. set a hard timeline for what they went instead of relying on this weird “sometimes real time sometimes not” thing. if he could just say “in universe it hasn’t been this long, let’s go” it could help in some ways bc it means plot points wouldn’t have to be abandoned bc it’s “”been too long””! but also at this point it’s a little late to implement, especially since they’ve been working w the “it’s been 3+ months since the last event” so… idk man yknow :/

all I can do is trust the CCs to at least give us Some kind of resolution, even if it takes time. even if it slogs along and takes time to reach, or if they just have to have an ooc stream sitting down and discussing what they would’ve done… they’ll give us something. which tbh, at this point? I’m okay w whatever. I just want a resolution

On Democracy In one small paragraph, Kahn outdid himself. He: *Dismissed the importance of democracy as a political issue. *Disclosed that the Times coverage is poll driven. *Asserted that coverage of the economy and immigration is favorable to Trump. *Whined that more coverage of democracy was tantamount to becoming a partisan publication.

Here’s what [Joe Kahn, executive editor of The New York Times] said: "It’s our job to cover the full range of issues that people have. At the moment, democracy is one of them. But it’s not the top one — immigration happens to be the top [of polls], and the economy and inflation is the second. Should we stop covering those things because they’re favorable to Trump and minimize them? I don’t even know how it’s supposed to work in the view of Dan Pfeiffer or the White House. We become an instrument of the Biden campaign?" [color/emphasis added] (Smith had asked Kahn to respond to Pfeiffer, a former Obama official, who recently complained that the editors at the Times  “do not see their job as saving democracy or stopping an authoritarian from taking power.”)

That one paragraph, posted on social media by NYU professor Jay Rosen, elicited a storm of critiques.

Cartoonist Ruben Bolling was among those upset by Kahn’s dismissal of democracy as a key issue. [emphasis added] "Hate to Godwin’s Law this, but what if the Berlin Bugle in 1931 said, Hitler may be a threat to democracy, but polls show that most Germans are most concerned about Communism and the Jewish problem. A journalist’s job is not to reflect the polls, but to cover the objectively important stories." [color/emphasis added]

University College London professor Brian Klaas wrote: "It is insane to me that someone in this role doesn’t understand that democracy is the superstructure for literally everything else. Democracy isn’t an issue that matters because of public opinion. It’s *the* issue that makes free public opinion possible." [color/emphasis added]

Veteran political observer Norm Ornstein wrote: "This is both cringeworthy and frightening. I can’t say it is sleepwalking to dictatorship. He is not sleeping. It is marching in that direction." [color/emphasis added]

I have been very frustrated by the The New York Times election coverage. Now I know why.

It is beyond absurd that Kahn thinks that if the NY Times informs its readers about the current attempts by the right to destroy our democratic republic, it would somehow make the NY Times an "instrument of the Biden campaign."

No, it would be fulfilling one of the major purposes of a free press in a democratic republic--to speak truth to power and to inform the populace of real dangers to our democratic institutions.

[edited]

[See more quotes from the article about Kahn's quote under the cut.]

Entrepreneur and writer Anil Dash concluded: "Just so you know, NYT fully believes they have no obligation to stop the fascist attack on America. They’ve finally said so explicitly. Act accordingly." [color/emphasis added]

Many objected to Kahn’s argument that democracy is a partisan issue. [emphasis added] Extremism researcher Mark Pitcavage wrote: "This quote strongly suggests the exec editor of the NYT can’t even think of democracy as an issue other than as a Biden campaign strategy." [color/emphasis added]

OG blogger Heather “Digby” Parton wrote: "This is so, so tiresome. Nobody says it’s his job to “help” Joe Biden. It would be nice if they could find it in their hearts not to sabotage him though." [color/emphasis added]

Others were horrified that Kahn breezily suggested that the economy and immigration were favorable stories for Trump. [emphasis added] Journalist and author James Surowiecki wrote: "If the NYT covers it accurately, the economy is not an issue that is 'favorable to Trump.'” [color/emphasis added]

A Twitter user named Hank Hoffman wrote: "The Exec. Editor of @nytimes  believes immigration, the economy, & inflation are issues 'favorable to Trump.' "Just to take immigration, why would a plan for militarized mass deportations & concentration camps be 'favorable to Trump?' How’s a STRONG economy 'favorable to Trump?'" [color/emphasis added]

Some took offense at the notion that the Times was so poll driven. [emphasis added] Journalist Reed Richardson wrote: "Conceptualizing democracy as a kind of niche issue that a free press should only prioritize in coverage according to how many people rate its importance in a poll is a huge tell about why the NYTimes’s current election coverage has been so myopic, timid, and consistently unable to meet the moment." [color/emphasis added]

Others thought that was just a cop-out of an excuse. [emphasis added] University of Illinois professor Nicholas Grossman wrote: "Biden’s age isn’t among voters’ top issues in polls, but the NY Times made it a recurring top story anyway Voters sure didn’t say they care about the president of Harvard, but the Times made that the number one story for days. When NYT editors care, they don’t defer to polls." [color/emphasis added]

I encourage people to read the entire article. It is worth it.

“But critics like me aren’t asking the Times to abandon its independence. We’re asking the Times to recognize that it isn’t living up to its own standards of truth-telling and independence when it obfuscates the stakes of the 2024 election, covers up for Trump’s derangement, and goes out of its way to make Biden look weak.”

tumblr etiquette 101

a list that is nowhere near exhaustive, from yours truly.

First off, welcome! Whether you’re a twitter veteran looking for anything but whatever twitter is, or a new user just done signing up, glad to see you in our ranks beloveds! Welcome home. Refer to this quick tour to make sure your fandom experience (or tumblr experience in general) is a positive one!

Disclaimer: I know it’s long, but please try to read or skim through til the end if you’re new here! This is by no means meant to be a rule book (for the most part lol), only a guide to help you get settled easier!

1) Your blog

This is where people will see and interact with you, so put some effort into it!

Try to choose a name (url) that’s simple. You can see it as your brand, it’s how people will perceive you and remember you. If you’d like to interact with other users here (and not use the site just for the content) it’s better to have something short and sweet, preferably without spaces. (Of course, these are only suggestions.) Rest assured, you can change it literally any time you want.

Have a theme. Utilize the tool that lets you edit your blog’s color or the font of your bio! You can make it match your profile picture, or your blog if it has a theme of its own. Make it feel homey :]

Fill in your bio. People will be checking out your profile probably more often than you think. Don’t leave it empty! Put in any information you’re comfortable with sharing and isn’t too personal (like your age if you’re a minor, or other TMI that can be found on other people’s carrds). It’s always better to add a name/nickname people can use to refer to you by, but feel free to use your blog description to shitpost still.

You can have an intro post. More often than not, you’ll see a blog have a pinned post, a post permanently appearing at the top of a blog until you pin another post or unpin it. You can make one of those, if you’d like to introduce yourself in more length, link any other socials or a carrd, and show others visiting your blog how you tag things so it’ll be easy for them to navigate. Not an obligation.

Keep your anonymity and your safety. It should go without saying, but there’s no harm in repeating it just in case. Your comfort, privacy and safety has the utmost importance. Don’t share any information you don’t want to. Don’t share your age if you’re a minor, or any other incredibly personal info. I’d encourage you to go by a nickname that’s not your real name, (blog name, your brand, remember?) since there’s safety in anonymity, and that’s lowkey one of the big deals of tumblr, but that’s up to you still.

Choose what you want to be visible. Your liked posts and who you follow are all things you can set to keep to yourself and hide from the publics eye, how handy! You should go through all the setting while you’re at it, set it to your comfort.

Side blogs are a thing. You can have multiple blogs that you can use for different things (see: different fandoms, art blog, etc) to keep them organized or away from your followers. Just remember that the replies and off-anon asks you send will be from your main blog, as well as where you follow other blogs from.

2) Interacting with others

You’ve set up your account, now comes the fun part!

Follow to your heart’s desire. If you care about others seeing who you follow, fear not! In tumblr, usually only two types of blogs keep their following visible to others: newbies, and big blogs using it to point people on other good blogs’ direction. Just turn it off, and go ham following people.

Customize your dashboard. Gonna mention just two things here: this is another reason why it’s really important that you follow blogs without sparing, your dash will collect dust otherwise; and you should turn off “best stuff first” in your dashboard settings, to have a better community here and all.

Follow tags. You can set it in your settings that posts with your followed tags appear on your dashboard.

You can check the og post for edits and context. When you see a reblogged post you don’t understand the context of (or don’t recognize the character in case of fanarts), click on the profile so it will take you to the original post. From there you can check the original poster’s tags to get the context, or see if there have been any edits made to the post, since when you edit a post it doesn’t update any past reblogs.

Send people asks... This is how you make mutuals, people! Do it off-anon if you’d like them to know your blog, or anon if you’d rather not! (You can still end your messages with a signature to show you’re the same person, -[name] is one example.) Send them nice messages, ask their opinion on something, discuss things, or just straight up shitpost lol. Go wild. The sky’s your limit and it’s definitely more than 280 characters.

...and let them ask you! You can set your preference in the settings, do it on desktop tumblr to access more settings tho! What you can customize on mobile is limited (like letting people ask you things anonymously, that’s only on desktop settings). In my personal opinion, it’s always better to tag their username (or a nickname you give them, if they’re a friend) on that post, since you wouldn’t want your interactions with your friends to get buried in your blog forever.

Comment on posts. If you have something to say but don’t want the post to appear on your blog you can add a comment. The owner of the post will get a notif for it, but for anyone else you need to tag them.

For the love of god, reblog. People will only see your liked posts if you have it visible to public and they specifically go on your blog to look at them. You like something? You reblog. It’s already hard for posts to circulate properly, if you don’t reblog them literally no one will see them. If not for anything do it for the artists. Just hold and drag on mobile to fast rb.

3) Your Posts

Finally here! Don’t be a lurker, post and engage!

Make use of “read more”. If your post is long, add it. That’s what you clicked on earlier to expand this post. On desktop leave an empty line and you’ll see three dots appear, and on mobile type :readmore: on that empty line.

Draft a post to come back to it later. Pretty self explanatory.

Queue your post. Whether it’s your own post or you’re reblogging, make use of the queue feature to a) not spam reblog and fill up the dashboard of people following you and b) keep your blog active while you’re gone. Mess around in the settings, it’s fairly easy to set up.

Schedule your post. Same as queueing, the only difference is you get to choose the exact time your post will go up. Handy if you want to schedule a post for certain dates like april fools, or 5 years in the future for some reason. 

Format your texts. You can do all kinds of fancy stuff here (that’s a link, try pressing on it). Twitter doesn’t have this, make use of it. Changes depending on whether you’re on mobile or desktop. (Desktop has less features.)

Check your stats. If you’re trying to understand the algorithm better or want to look at some pretty graphs you can get your data on that on desktop tumblr.

@ people in comments. You’ll get all the notifs when people comment on your posts but they won’t see your reply unless you tag them in your message.

4) Tags, and tagging a post

This is where my earlier statement “this isn’t a rule book” stops being applicable. It’s not a war crime to go against these, I won’t come chasing you (don’t take my word for this) but you’ll work up a bad rep. Just saying lol.

Do NOT crosstag posts. It’s really tempting to add unrelated tags to increase your posts’ interaction, I know, but that’s not what tumblr is about. Don’t be a dick and make other communities’ experience worse for them.

Always tag your posts with “crit/critical/discourse/etc” if it calls for it. There’s no exceptions to it. This is the reason you see people migrating to tumblr. Let people enjoy things.

Don’t main tag a critical/negative post. If your crit post is about “Thing”, you add the “Thing critical” tag, but not the “Thing” tag. People block crit tags if they don’t want to see it, don’t shove it in their faces by main tagging it. 

If you don’t want to see something, just block it. Another reason why people are able to survive on tumblr. You don’t start discourse, you don’t make call-outs, you block. You can find something for every community you can think of if you go looking for it. The worst of the worst probably won’t ever appear on your dash, but if you’re worried or feel the need for it, you know where the block button is.

Feel free to shitpost or ramble. More often than not you’ll see people rb a post with a comment, and their elaboration will be in the tags. The tags are only visible on your profile and the notifications of the owner of the og blog. Just a thing people do.

Reblog artists’ posts with nice comments in the tags! Commenting on a drawing is usually done through the tags (Not an obligation, again, just a thing people do. Feel free to add your comment on the rb itself if you’d want other people to see it tho!) and leave nice messages for the artists! It’s a win-win for everyone involved. 

If you have more than a single follower, always use the common tw warning tags. You don’t need to tw everything, but tw’ing some common things is the bare minimum human decency. Keep it safe for others. 

Tag a post “long post” if it’s really long. Pretty self explanatory. Don’t make people scroll through all that please lol. 

You can use them to organize your blog. This is more of a pro tip, if you’d like to not miss a post in your blog, cause they will start pilin’ up soon enough.

#Liveblogging is pretty fun. If you’d like to talk to people during streams, don’t forget to add the relevant tags still! Again, you won’t show up on people’s dash otherwise.

Whew! That got out of hand. Hopefully I didn’t bore you too much. Check out blogs like @heritageposts and @hellsite-hall-of-fame to honor our past o7. @mcytblr-hall-of-fame too maybe :eyes:. Anyways, don’t forget the most important rule of them all:

Enjoy your stay! You’re meant to have fun on here while also making friends (if that’s your thing). Just be kind and respectful of others, you’ll get the hang of the rest! <3

[wibble-wobbegong]

Quick! Tag your top favorite byler blogs (as many as you want) and tell my why you love them in one line to spread positivity on the dashboard and make someone's day!

oh my god man okay i’m gonna do this as fast as possible. love & kindness speedrun challenge

@madcleradin

super funny, super cool, great takes, one of the Michael understanders and just generally very fun to see on the dash + we’re best friends forever (we have never had a conversation. they agree) + i think she was actually my first mutual. she’s kinda required to follow actually

@heroesbyler

stav is one of the most girls of all time. she’s genuinely such a based person and she has same banger theories and analysis plus she’s great at making you feel welcomed in new communities :) also a grade a Michael understander

@smoosnoom

i start frothing at the mouth whenever i see a new smoosnoom fic get posted. literally one of my favorite writers ever and i have been reading fanfiction for like 8 years. everyone has to follow smoosnoom if you follow me, they’re a required byler blog

@gmaybe666

I LOVE GMAYBE ART SOOOOO MUCH. their art style just hits so hard and i adore every piece they make. it’s such a unique style from what i’ve seen and the coloring rewires my brain idk i can’t explain it but. HIGHLY recommend following gmaybe for some good art

@strangersynth

OH OH OH I love his videos about mike so fucking much. one of the og mike gets vecna-ed truthers if im remembering correctly. when i first watched his video about all the scenes of mike being stalked i swear to fuck my jaw hit the floor. it was so well put together and really nailed it in that mike is in danger. baller theorist + editor

@nancysglock

ALSO a required blog. she does such a fantastic job breaking scenes down from the perspective of the creators and understands the series really, really well so she’s able to create her own scripts that project a mini movie into your head rather than making you read. you’re reading them but it feels like you’re watching a scene from the show y’know?

@aemiron-main

i don’t know em too well yet but i will say that every time i’ve had the pleasure of interacting with him it’s been a great time!! ALSO THE MUSIC THEORIES ARE INSANE. my brain isn’t great at picking up those types of patterns so watching him make connections like that is SO cool

@new-ronantics

another great presence for the dash!!!! she’s funny, she makes great art, her tags are awesome, literally what else could you want?? there’s so much to say and yet it’s just like. she’s perfect, what else am i supposed to say?

just saw that you’re supposed to describe the blog in 1 line. No ❤️
