I think I came out as demi like 8-9 years ago? Geez, its been a while. But the few snippets of ace exclusionist BS I've seen recently are pretty much almost word-for-word identical as the stuff I used to see around the time I came out and before then.
As in, it hasn't changed one bit. Neither the wording nor the volume of it. Its like the exclusionists are bringing in & training their direct replacements but they've only got the same script to work from.
Its like, I'm bored y'all. Get new material or something idk š„±
#for legal reasons this is a joke#but yeah that's just my perception of it#lgbtq+#tw exclusionism#seriously this particular kind of bigotry is so stale#its like 'oh I don't understand your relationship with sex & sexuality so therefore its invalid'#and I'm sitting here like#'you mean'#'like how every other letter under the LGBTQ+ umbrella isn't cisheterosexual either?'#'HUH'#'go figure'#'wonder what that must mean if you thought about it for like'#'y'know'#'two extra seconds'

Okay can I be a bitter Anders fan for like. Just 2 minutes here lmao
Cause bioware released some game stats for veilguard and apparently 72% of players redeemed Solas which is like. Okay yeah the game kinda pushes you towards that. But when I think of all the shit I used to have to put up with just for enjoying Anders like at all andā¦
(This is not me being anti-Solas, I do not care if you love or hate him, but I am gonna say what heās done is like. Objectively worse than literally every other companion so lmao. And thatās fine! You can still enjoy him! Iām not saying you canāt and itās important to me that people understand that! Iām just saying he did in fact do objectively morally worse things in game than Anders did and I donāt think thatās really debatable. And I canāt really make my point here without saying that but I do want to make it clear this is not some moral condemnation of Solas enjoyers cause itās not)
Getting anon hate on the regular, being told āoh youāre allowed to like Anders as long as you regularly talk about how much he sucksā, people gleefully describing how much fun they have killing him ON your posts about the fact that you like him, the devs making jokes about shitty fates for him when fans asked innocent questions about him, the absolute audacity of his writer to say half the shit she did in interviews (about bisexuality and mental illness, most critically), and then being beaten over the head again in inquisition about how Anders is the worst character to ever exist and thereās no redemption for terrorists who lie to you one time in the entire game and he deserves death or worse and thatās it
And nowā¦ 72% of people are down to redeem the guy who lies to you for 2 games straight and who did a lot of questionable things that includes creating the fucking blight and. Like. I guess Iām glad that Solas fans can live in a world where they arenāt constantly harassed and can give their ship like. A pretty damn good ending all things considered. And that the devs love Solas and actually give the option for that happy ending and have characters go to bat for Solas throughout the game and the most annoying thing they have to see are people making scrambled egg memes. I would not wish anyone to have to deal with the shit Anders fans had to put up with back then cause it sucked. It really sucked. And Iām glad itās not being repeated with a different character, if nothing else
But like. Man there really is a difference when the writers actually like the character who does the thing, huh
#shut up nerd#anders#Iām sorry itās just. really hard to not be bitter tbh#like the shit we as fans went through#just for liking a damn character#tbf I do actually think if the game came out today perceptions would be different#I think people would be more comfortable with revolutionary action now than they were then#but even still#itās not even about that you know#itās about people (both fans and at times the actual devs) being mean when they really didnāt need to be#and the DA trenches are probably why literally no harassment phases me anymore lmao but#thatās not a good thing slskd itās just a useful consequence I guess#so yeah idk#am I jealous that Solas fans get to have a better experience?#yeah I canāt deny I feel a bit of that#but Iām also just. idk tired and sad for what that time was. and also glad that it seems to be over#but also a little bitter that I had to go through it when it didnāt need to happen at all#idk just feeling a lot here in this chiliās tonight lmao#(why do I say that I donāt think my country even has chiliās)#ANYWAY#dragon age#veilguard spoilers

Shockingly underrated thing about Leo is that heās legitimately charming when he wants to be?
Heās the Faceman! Heās persuasive! Thatās not just some random title he gave himself with no backing to it. People will listen to him. Even if they think heās being annoying or if theyāre upset at him, people listen to him anyway! Thereās a reason his bros push him out front to talk to people, and when this happens, that talking nearly always works.
Moreover, Leo knows people. He looks at them and takes into account how they act and what theyāre like as he makes his way through the conversations. Itās easy to forget this aspect of Leoās character because he only brings it out when he really needs (read: wants) to, but it really is a notable part of him that always love to see.
And I say charm in particular because he has a knack for not only getting people to pay attention, but for getting people to stay and listen to what he has to say.
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt leo#rise leo#I feel like people equate Leo to a lot of loud gross boy behavior instead of looking at his actual accomplishments#which fair enough#he IS a loud gross boy a lot of the time#but his charisma really deserves a mention for how much it comes in clutch#that one cut animatic of the other people in the resistance wanting Leo to join them for karaoke like#and yes those inspiring speeches he gives his fam are also an example of charm#bro has! charisma! he can have his loser moments and at the same time show off how to manipulate through words#Leo knows people and if he really wants to he can talk them up#but yeah like - I see people calling him the face man a lot but not so much taking into account what that entails#heās got a pretty face! and heāll do the talking a lot! but thatās not all a face man is#another thing that is SHOCKINGLY underrated in fandom is Raph loving fighting???#I have no idea why but I feel like I donāt see this mentioned enough#he adores wrestling and roughhousing and training and just FIGHTING in general plz let my boy punch something#I have more I wanna say but itāll have to wait until later it is very late haaa#anyway my main point behind this post is that Leo knows people and in turn knows what they WANT#it is this same perception that makes him REALLY GOOD at getting under peopleās skin too#people skills and adaptability really make sense when you take into account the fact that heās a red eared slider#it really is cool to see how much this part of Leo is addressed throughout the series#nearly always in very lowkey ways

[A sad violin song plays over an image of a sad hamster]
Pac: This doesn't have anything to do with me ā I wear a blue sweatshirt, you're crazy, this mouse doesn't even have a sweatshirt, this hamster! [Reading chat] Am I a depressed hamster?
[ Transcript continued ā ]*
ā
Pac: Actuallyā that's fine! I embrace that idea ā of course I'm going to be depressed, are you crazy? [He hits his desk, then starts counting off people on his fingers] Fit is gone, Richarlyson is gone, Ramon is gone, Bagi and Empanada who were always there when we were there are also gone, I haven't seen them! It's just me and Tubbo, and sometimes Philza shows up.
Pac: I lost Chume Labs, I lost the Favela, I lost Murder Mystery, I lost Ilha Chume Labs, it's crazy! Look at how much I've lost, and I've gained nothing! Of course I'm going to be depressed, are you crazy?! How am I supposed to be happy?!
Pac: [Reading chat] "You have us Pac," that's true, thank you. No, that's true, sorry.
* NOTE: Please note that this is an incomplete transcript, as I was primarily relying on Aypierre's translation mod at the time and if I am not confident of the translation, I do not include it. As always, please feel free to add on translations or message me corrections.
#Pactw#QSMP#Pac#March 18 2024#As much as I love keeping people updated about Pac / the other Portuguese-speaking creators#I think I might not make as many transcribed posts for their clips anymore#I just don't think I'm qualified enough to be transcribing things for a language I don't know#like yeah we have the Qlobal Translator and Aypierre's translators to rely on#And I'm always upfront when I'm not 100% sure about a translation#but I've been thinking about it a lot and it kinda makes me feel a bit icky. Idk.#I might be overthinking this but I just I don't want to spread around translations I'm not super confident about#esp. since I know a lot of people cite my clips in analysis posts or link them to other people as resources#and 90% of the time I'm like ''Hell yeah I love seeing people getting a lot of use out of the archive''#but sometimes I get a bit anxious like ''Did I do a good enough job translating this''#''Am I ruining someone's entire perception of a conversation or character because I left one word out or mistranslated something?''#And like I said that's normally not a HUGE concern since if I'm not certain about a translation I just won't post a clip. but you know#idk it might just be the anxiety talking but I really really don't want to spread bad info#Happy to hear other folks' perspective#I'm really grateful for people like Bell and Pix and others who translate clips and I always try to reblog those#but we don't have a ton of people posting clips & translating things on Tumblr since we're so English-centric#which is part of the reason WHY I like sharing clips of the non-English-speaking CCs#but at the same time I want to do an accurate job representing what they're saying#Maybe I'll just start posting things and give a TLDR context of what they're talking about but not a transcript#that way native-speakers can hop in and add translations if that's something they're comfortable doing#and if not then well. at least I'm not sharing something that isn't super accurate#idk I'm just thinking out loud a bit in the tags#But I'm open to hearing other people's thoughts on the matter#Anyways giant rant aside. q!Pac is NOT doing ok rn

Alex and Nigel as knights templar ā¤
#Templars alex and nigel live rent free in my mind#Also two posts in the same day ?? I might be sick#like minds fanart#like minds#alex forbes#nigel colbie#like minds 2006#knights templar#I first thought they looked too young here#But c'mon they are just 17#Sometimes I sit in class and look at my classmates and imagine what if one of them had been through the same things as alex and nigel???#Also I can't believe I'm the same age as alex and nigel?? Ofc the actors are older so it changes my perception of their youth (wtf is that-#-sentence pls I'm sorry it's so late rn) but still??? It's just so weird and disturbing omg#Yeah it's so heartbreaking š they are/were so young :(

Something funny for your spy x family ASL au
Luffy took ONE look at loid and internally went 'oh sweet. He's a spy like sabo' and never brings it up while anya just stares at him horrified and like with ace and sabo, he just never brings it up.
This also happens with yor and anya makes a funny noise
(As i am typing this my dog has the zoomies and is running around like a maniac)
HAHA YEAH THIS WOULD DEFINITELY HAPPEN
I think loidās a good enough actor that luffy wouldnāt figure it out immeditely from like just a few seconds of meeting him but give him a minute or a few and heāll figure it out on vibes alone
#one piece#spy x family crossover#monkey d luffy#anya forger#the problem with writing luffy is I am very bad at writing him#Iām much much better at general likeā¦ā¦ reasoning and rationale and so my writing style just does not mesh well with luffy#I donāt like that luffy seems so often to act as just a judge of character or human goodness litmus test#because while his judgement on who is good has been mostly correct up to this point it has also mostly been arbitrary#I think my excuse for luffy being able to tell so quickly in sxf crossover what secret identities people are hiding#mostly comes down to being more perceptive than people give him credit for and having ridiculous intuition#I donāt think he consciously registers clues or anything but I do think his brain catalogues a lot of details that come together eventually#so-called āvibesā I guess#but yeah Anya has absolutely no clue how heās doing it because he also has no clue how heās doing it

starting by saying that i think loveless aros are the coolest people ever. i think a lot about lovelessness and how it might apply to me and,,, well. to start. a few years ago it was not a word that fit because i felt at the time that i felt love in nonromantic ways. right now, though, my feelings are tied up a lot in semantics, and no matter how large my feelings might be and how similar they might be to what other people would categorize as love, i don't feel that i have access to the concept of love as society presents it. to me, love is a word/concept that is currently inextricable from the romantic aspect of things: not that all love is romantic, but that love is always expected to include romance as one of its forms. there are obviously many many ways to love someone but my aromanticism makes me feel as if my feelings for people aren't love as conceived of by society at large. so. in that way. i Don't feel love. which i think is what the technical definition of lovelessness is. the longer answer is to say that i don't believe in the societal construct of love but that gets me looks that are just as weird haha. anyway. no matter what lovelessness is awesome and i will always treasure loveless aros. keeping that word alongside me like a little companion for company and assistance in my times of need
#might end up being the same way i felt about transmasculinity haha. spent all of high school going 'wow i love that word...'#'i wish i was transmasc so i could use that word...'#and then i ended up like. transmasc in a way that i'll describe myself like that. i'm not a boy though i just use that terminology#for convenience. yeah i present more masculine (mostly to compensate for perception of me as feminine) but i don't actually#feel any connection to gender at all so... not transmasculine i'm not really trying to be that masculine... androgyny my beloved...#however it is a word that does technically describe me and one that i use as needed.#and i do still think it's a cool word. so i will continue to use it. kind of just for funzies.#i think lovelessness might be largely the same way haha#SO MUCH IN MY HEAD. whatever. no matter what i don't think love is real or something that applies to me#and i don't believe in it ideologically <3#talking#lovelessness#loveless aros

DIRK: Must I repeat myself?
DIRK: Youāre damn right.
DAVE: were the masters of irony dude
DAVE: so many layers on this shit the ogres of the world would fall apart trying to dissect this nonsense
DAVE: green mike meyers going into existential crisis over offbrand skater games
DIRK: Youāve learned well.
DIRK: Youāre close on your path to mastery of the art of irony.
DIRK: Soon we may have to have an ironic graduation ritual.
DAVE: oh shit are you fr
DIRK: As āfor realā as I can be, Dave.
DAVE: like with the handing down of the shitty dollar store katana and everything
DIRK: Yep.
DAVE: like with the oversized thrift store coats acting as robes
DIRK: Damn right.
DAVE: oh FUCK
DAVE: thats hype as hell bro im excited as fuck for that
DAVE: ironically of course
DIRK: Of course, only naturally.
Dirk pauses the game and moves off of the couch.
DIRK: For now though, we have some AJ to collect.
DAVE: fuck yeah
They both leave the apartment, asserting themselves in the most stupidly cool way they can manage.

i know astrology is fake but i'm not too keen on how a lot of people on this website seem to be clowning on it as a hobby a bit too hard. i swear the woman who thinks it's neat how she and her friends with the same sun sign are all similar isn't trying to say that you are who you are born as and there is nothing you can do to change it. it's a hobby. an interest. what happened to finding meaning and joy in the small things. does it affect you if someone enjoys tarot reading or crystals. does it make you upset someone has interests that they enjoy.
#im not saying astrology/tarot/crystals/etc. get clowned on so much bc theyre hobbies mostly enjoyed by women But....#i saw a post about some astrology study and made the mistake of opening the notes on that bad boy#not fun. and that reminded me of that old post that was basically like ''liking astrology is transphobic''#anyways idk maybe its just that my bestie is very much a ''crystal girl'' but like. stuff like that are such neat hobbies#she makes some cute little jars with pretty rocks and they make her feel better bc if you believe in something you can make it happen#when it comes to small things#like yeah if you pick up a stone that's like ''this can help you be more open with your emotions'' and you are like ''oh hell yea!''#ofc that will be on your mind and the item will be a constant reminder and actually help you with your goals#and its like. ok what really stuck with me was when i was talking with my bff and i was like ''i think all this stuff is interesting but i#feel bad bc i am superstitious and believe in some signs like lucky numbers but i know that logically its just. if i pick a lucky number of#i pay extra attention to it but i want to believe its lucky but i know how human brains work in that aspect''#and she was just like. ''so? those things dont have to exclude each other'' and it clicked#if i have a little tigers eye with me it does not make me feel more grounded magically#but if i decide (or believe) it's grounding then it will b bc it's a reminder for me to calm down#and stuff#like. ah idk how to put my thoughts into words#but i just think its unfair that a few rotten apples have ruined the perception of fun hobbies for a lot#not every astrology enjoyer is trying to sell you mlm essential oils or genuinely believe peoples entire lives are dictated upon the stars#or something#idk i just feel like these things are v misunderstood even tho im not personally like super into them myself#but ppl super mean about that stuff arent invited to look at my medieval themed fortune telling cards#idkk im sleepy and cant articulate my points someone else say this but better#leevi talks#im just saying. i dont think its bioessentialism to decide to believe you personally have a season for growth when the stars are in a#certain position or whatever

so hey guys i finished dungeon meshi yesterday and i'm still thinking about it
#ria.txt#i spoiled myself so at first i was like 'this is bonkers wtf are they doing in those last few chapters?????'#but then it was like. yeah. i see#love those ch when it's just clearly putting the squad into Situations#also. izutsumi#what i really liked was how tightly the protagonist and the deuteragonist were wound up in the overall themes#the plot the themes the conflict the characters it was very neatly connected#hence i am also now accidentally invested in whatever going on between laios and marcille#not just platonic not romantic not enemies i just think they work well tgt and deeply care for each other its great watching them develop#it's the leader + most trusted advisor / anxious girlfailure + the annoying freak she's somehow attached to vibes#haha that rabbit chapter with marcille. hahha i was like what the fuck man. it was funny and then boom whump [tears streaming down my face]#those shapeshifter chs were sooo much fun esp seeing other chara's perceptions of each other. stealing that#the changeling ones were great too elf senshi is the fucking funniest he looks sooooooo unserious#marcille's evolving perception with death starting with saving falin and saving the squad and her nightmares of outliving everyone-#-and her dad and her 'temper tantrum' and UGH when at the end she said she was fine with falin not coming back.... WAAA. OUGH.#i think dunmeshi handled the trope of 'prophecy of chosen one becoming king' pretty well and it makes sense why laios is the protag#the worldbuilding is so thoughtful as well i liked seeing different characters with different worldviews interact#very solid and well rounded series wooo#the main 4 has such a fun dynamic together#anyways. dunmeshi au.....#more like borrowing the worldbuilding bc charas are too nuanced for a one to one comparison#ren is like some prince of his own species but he's like 34th in line and no one cares about him so he fucks off to eat monsters#which is why he's both snobbish AND a total freak when it comes to his food taste#false is originally in for the money from ren and plans to scam him but unfortunately the cringefail swag captures her#martyn is Obnoxiously Clueless and thinks he's smart but he's not. he's resourceful but also pathetic and crazy#stress cant cook but she thinks she does so everyone goes (ā_ā ) when she picks up a pot. they delegate her to killing and chopping duty#the mvp is iskall who keeps on saving everyone's asses and somehow has resources for everyone#i think ren is actually aware false is going to scam him but he has too much money to spend anyway and he thinks shes cool so he lets her??#and somehow she doesnt take the money and run. and goes back to eating monsters w/ the party. everyone is crazy

maybe it's just cuz I'm in The Mood but I just watched charlie's first slay the princess vod (and am currently watching the second) and I literally could ONLY think of gillion. like that's him that's his internal dialog
#it does Not help that the smitten just IS gil#my boy he is trapped in a time loop helping an eldritch entity become itself#okay but like ignoring the game in its Entirety it made me think of. the training simulations he went through.#and im sitting here like. yeah the elders would make him (A Hero) decide whether or not he would murder A Princess to āsave the worldā#yeah the elders would make it so Gil's Perception of the princess would change the simulation#yeah they would absolutely fuck him up like that#anyway#jrwi riptide#slimecicle
