#can i have easy problems in life to deal with please 🙏

[southernvampire]

not sure if it's good for my mental health to be playing a game where the player character is actively dying while I'm waiting for a diagnosis for a mystery autoimmune illness, but here I am and wow. got startled with a convo in the game about dying, fighting to live, and accepting that death is inevitable. it's such a beautiful and vulnerable conversation and now I'm having to confront my own feelings about my health and mortality 🥲🫠

[vouam]

just found this guy’s answer to a question on quora (“is misandry a problem in the US?” or something of that nature) and was wondering what your reaction to it would be. there are some points i wouldn’t be sure how to refute, though it’s certainly not enough to change my radfem beliefs lol. i’ll copy and paste it since i can’t send ss in anon

Q:“is misandry prevalent in today’s society?”

A:“I would say so.

Woman: doesn't want a child so she secretly aborts it.

Man: doesn't want a child and is forced to pay child support for 18 years while being ridiculed as a dead beat dad

Woman: my body, my choice

Man: has his genitals forcibly mutilated for no good reason at birth

Woman: free drinks at the club on ladies night

Man: there is no men's night. Drink prices increase to cover all the free drinks ladies get

Woman: oh please keep yourself safe

Man: forced to sign up for selective services (a.k.a. draft) at 18.

Woman: complains about low paying job

Men: 67% of work place injuries happen to men, 93% of work place fatalities happen to men. No one bats an eye

Woman: mostly automatically given custody of children no matter what

Men: you can see your children on the weekend only and pay for child support

Man: simply accused of abusing a woman and goes straight to jail.

Woman: beats the man senseless and if the man defends himself goes to jail. If he doesn't defend himself he still might go to jail or if he is lucky police will tell him to quit making a big deal about it. Has 1 place in the country to go to for sheltering battered men despite the fact that women are the perpetrators of domestic violence some 40% of the time. Woman, have countless battered women shelters to go to.

Man: gets raped by woman at gun point being forced to give oral sex and held captive for days. Society has a good laugh

Woman: gets raped and her perpetrator is rightfully punished. No one is laughing about it. Woman gets psychological help and all kinds of assistance from society. Also if she makes false accusations of rape, ruining a man's life, no one says a thing about it and she is free to go on accusing.

Men: penalties for the same crime as women are much longer sentences.

Men: comprise 60 some % of homeless population

Men: comprise of a majority of suicides

I could go on but it's only going to anger the feminazis more and more”

reading crap like this makes me so mad tbh, like i understand moids don’t have easy lives just because they’re moids but GOOD FUCKING GRIEF it’s like they just can’t fucking get enough of acting like society wasn’t built by men for men. 🙏🙏 sorry it just gets me upset. anyway love ur blog!!

Oooof this is a really great ask so thank you for sending this in! I guess I’ll approach this by answering each one individually (although I might repeat myself)

Men pay child support while women can just have an abotion

This is a very strange argument. Because firstly not every country has fully legal abortions. 47 countries only allow it for health reasons, 43 to save the mother’s life and 22 it is fully illegal. A lot of men like this seem to forget that there are other countries on this planet. I’d personally rather be the gender that has to pay child support for an unwanted baby. Even in the case of legal abortions, abortions are not easy to go through. It is mentally very difficult and can be an invasive procedure. Women are shamed for having abortions in every country, even the most ‘accepting’ places.

Circumcision

I am very against circumcision and this was probably his most valid point(?) But his point excludes the fact that FGM is practiced in many countries and cultures. And while male circumcision is usually done for religious reasons claiming its ‘hygienic’ and has little to no bad side effects while FGM can kill women and girls, and is done for far more malicious reasons that I can’t even begin to describe.

Men’s drinks night

Does he know the implications of what ‘buying a woman a drink’ means?? Yeah, I’d much rather be a man in this situation 😭

Drafted at 18

I am against anyone being drafted, and I’m against any military work period. But men made this rule because they deem men to be brave and strong - a stereotype designed to benefit them.

Work place injuries and fatalities

Most injuries and fatalities happen with manual labour, construction/factory work etc. Same stereotype as listed in the point before this.

Custody over children

Again, this happens due to a stereotype that benefits men. Women are ‘better parents/nurturing’ while men are not and should go out there and work and achieve their goals while women stay at home. Literally designed to benefit men. Also, a lot of men view the custody struggle as a privilege because they cannot be bothered to be fathers.

Going to prison because of a simple accusation and less abuse shelters for men

This is the craziest point because men do not go to prison over some random accusation pulled out from thin air. In order to accuse someone of abuse, you need extensive indisputable evidence. Even then, the police will not take it seriously or the defence will win the case for whatever reason. These are the hardest crimes to prove in a court and the statistics show this. Less abuse shelters for men because they are far FAR less likely to be a victim. Yes, its’s sad but this literally proves misogyny is a thing rather than misandry - because I know damn well which sex I’d rather be in this instance.

People laugh at male rape victims and women are given full support/legal justice

I addressed this in the previous point. Women are ridiculed and not believed/not given justice at an extremely higher rate than men.

Longer male prison sentences

Same stereotype that I’ve said before about being stronger/braver vs weak/nurturing. The stereotype was made to benefit them. Also this ignores that a lot of the time there are other aspects to a crime that result in a higher sentence given. For example 1st degree murder done for financial motive vs sexual motive.

Larger male homeless population and male suicide rate

I guess this is more of a question of why men are more likely to be homeless or commit suicide. Make suicide rate studies suggest it’s harder for men to admit mental health struggles/reach out for help. Again, it’s sad but the strong brave stereotype was designed to benefit them, like I’ve said before. Permanent homelessness is largely due to addiction, mental health, childhood poverty, financial crisis, loss of relationships to family/partner. These can all happen to women, except a lot of the female homeless population are trafficked, resort to prostitution, enter abusive relationships to escape the streets. In a lot of countries, people seem to think its 99% men that are homeless, but its usually not. You just typically only see male homeless people sitting/sleeping on the street in public spaces - that’s a more terrifying place for a woman to be compared to a man.

—

I guess this guy’s main problems is that he:

- Thinks USA/Europe/western countries are the only places that exist

- Can’t see that bad things that happen to men are actually a result of stereotypes designed to benefit the male population

- Makes up statistics in his head that aren’t true

- Has a crazy victim complex

- Can’t see that the women’s position in his scenario is actually worse

I hope this helps with any future debates and refutes! And I hope I explained myself well enough 😭

[oraclekleo]

And I also pulled some cards for you this time! The interpretation might not be the most professional, but I gave it my best 🤭

What does Kleo give to the world?

IX of Swords, The Sun, 7 of Cups

So, as I was mixing the cards, a card suddenly was all alone at the corner, away from the pile. I flipped it over and it was the IX of swords. I kept mixing the cards, and then the sun violently flipped over. Then, I thought two cards is kind of a weird pull, so I mixed them again to see if I should get another one, and the VII of Cups flipped over. I usually mix the cards for a while and then form them into deck shape again to pull the cards, so it was odd that I didn't get to do that with any of the pulls this time 😂

Not going to lie, at first I was confused about the cards... Like, "Kleo gives the world anxiety" definitely doesn't sound right 💀

But seeing all the cards together I thought about you giving people advice. I think, because you're such a pragmatic person, you might be really good at giving people different perspectives when facing an issue, and making them think about it. Sure, seeing things as they are might definitely stress people out, especially if they've been avoidant about the situation, but it's necessary to wake up and look around us so we can work things out, right? And when we look around we can see all the different possibilities and opportunities that we might've been ignoring or not realising they were there. The VI of Cups is the card I pulled when I interviewed my deck and asked about the readings that suit it best, and since then I associate it with guidance a lot. Finally, The Sun makes me think that, through giving people good advice you might be a source of positivity for the ones around you. Sure, your approach could be a little tough and no-nonsense, but sometimes that's exactly what people need, even if they don't want it. This is a personal impression but you also seem like a cool and fun person, in a mature, grounded way... Even if you don't feel like you're a "Sun" kind of person, that doesn't mean others can't find warmth in you, right? After all, it's all about perspective.

(side note, but when I saw the sun card I immediately thought about Dachi and Easy. It's not exactly related to the reading as a whole? but I felt so warm, like "oh, they must definitely think Kleo is their Sun lol")

That's it! Thank you for giving me the opportunity to do a reading today it felt so fun 🤭

Also PLEASE don't feel forced to write more if you pull a card for me... Like I got carried away and pulled more cards, but also I'm a chronic yapper and can't summarise for the life of me 🙏

I always appreciate your readings 💕

Hello!

Thank you so much for participating in my tiny game!

OMG!!

Thank you so much for the reading! 💖💖💖💖💖

"Kleo gives the world anxiety" YES! Yes! That's true! 🤣 I mean... I'm kinda a no-sugarcoating person so it's true people sometimes think I'm pretty harsh with my inputs. And I can break hearts with it. When people try to deal with something, they might ignore some significant aspects, the uncomfortable ones and I have the habit of bringing those unpleasant things to the light because... ignoring a problem won't make it go away, right? But yeah, there are things I say that can be really hard to digest and give people anxiety. I try to be softer now. Probably reflects in the more emotional 7 of Cups, I try to highligh both the troubling but also positive aspects now. For better balance. 😁 LOL! I probably am a Sun for my dogs. I mean, I keep them warm, happy and fed. I'm basically their deity. 🤣

I love your interpretation. And I'm really happy you gave it a try and I'm proud of your results. ✨

Now! To your shorter reading! 😂

Question: What do you give to the world?

Deck: Everyday Witch Tarot

Card: 5 of Cups

(Feedback is highly appreciated but not mandatory)

When others only see the negatives, you look around and see all the blessings. Sure, sometimes things go the wrong way, shit happens, plans get ruined and tears flow. That's not a reason to lose hope for you. You know very well that if your plan doesn't work out, it probably wasn't a good plan in the first place. You make new better plan, you try again, you push through, you focus on the prize. You know spilling a glass doesn't ruin the feast. There's still plenty to delight. Obstacles, challenges and setbacks are not the end of the world for you. They are simply there to empower you, to teach you new skills and lessons, to help you grow as a person. You might be standing on a top of a shit pile but you are still on top and closer to sky, right? 😉

[demons-and-more-yall]

Someone wanted an explanation, so here it goes. (Please read the whole thing before commenting 🙏)

!!Sexual talk/mentions!!

Yes, Asmo is very sexual there's no doubt about that. Due to all the attention he gets and his sin, it makes perfect sense that he's the way he is. But he can still be very sexual, and acesexual. How?

Easy.

He's hypersexual.

No I'm not just slapping a term onto him, I genuinely see it.

Hypersexual literally causes unwanted or excessive sexual arousal, making people to engage in or think about sexual things to a point of distress or impairment. It effects people's health, job, relationships and other parts of their life. It also involves different kinds of common sexual experiences like m*sturbat!on, multiple sexual partners, use of 🌽-ography or paying for s*x. However when these sexual behaviors become a major, constant focus in your life, are difficult to control, and cause problems in your life and are harmful to you or others, that is in fact Hypersexuality.

Asmo is literally ALL OF THESE. He's constantly thinking, doing, or engaging in sexual things. He makes remarks around or even ABOUT family (ew) or in serious or professional environments, constantly goes out to clubs to hook up, and has hugely sexualized himself. He does it ALOT. He's known for it.

But that's the thing about being hypersexual. You can't CONTROL it. At least not without therapy. This fact makes sense, especially when you remember his brothers also have uncontrollable issues, related to their sins ofc. However unlike the others, who seem to hate the effect their sins have on them, Asmo EMBRACES it. I'm fact, for a long time I believe he didn't even see a problem with it. Everyone around him either encouraged it or disregard/ignored it, so I wouldn't be surprised if he just never really gave it to much thought. He'd need a third party or outside perspective for him to really stop and really think about it.

And guess who's the perfect third party...MC!!

I genuinely believe that MC does help the others manage their sins and their sin related issues in due time, and Asmo is no exception. They offer the perspective, that needed input he'd need to really address his issues. Or at least notice them. That and it's literally stated in cannon that he really just wants genuine love from someone. He wants someone to love him for him, not just for what he can do or give. He wants someone to love him for more then his body.

Aceseuxality is a spectrum, and while it might not be the best term to use now that I think about it, I genuinely think that once he gets the genuine love and attention he's been wanting for so long, suddenly those sexual actions or impulses don't seem as "fun". He has constant love now, he doesn't need to seek it out through other means anymore. Yet he is still dealing with those strong impulses and thoughts, even when he doesn't want them.

That's my point! He's used sex as a way to get attention, love and intimacy for a long time. It was always a means to an end. After the fall, he lost a lot of affection/attention after being the literal jewel of the heavens. Sure it technically FELT good, it's physical stimulation so he technically did get physical aroused, but he didn't... Really want it for any other reason then he just wanted that affection/attention. He's never wanted sex just because he wanted sex. He wanted it because to him, it was the only form of love he could get, at least for a long time.

Of course his sin will still impact him, and yes he will still be sexual in a sense due to it, but I don't think he'd actually act out those things anymore. He definitely would have healed from it a bit but it's still a struggle for him at times, especially with his sin (and the fact they all clearly never got therapy). For once in his life, he doesn't have to.

Of course take this with a grain a salt. It's obviously a HC, and also I'm still only on the first game. If nobody else agrees or likes this then that's perfectly fine, just please don't actually harras me about it. I was actually really nervous to make the original post so please just be nice if you wanna make a opinion on this. I'd really appreciate it. (⁠´⁠-⁠﹏⁠-⁠`⁠；⁠)

Say you HC Belphie as Aro-Ace and nobody bats an eye.

Say you HC Asmo as Asexual and the community goes wild.

I HAVE A MIGHTY NEED FOR ALL THINGS YANDERE!SHISHIGUMI ❤️❤️❤️ Can we get some headcanons please 🙏🙏🙏

Yandere is a portmanteau of two Japanese words. The first is yanderu, which means “to be sick,” and the second is deredere, used here for “lovestruck.” A yandere is often sweet, caring, and innocent before switching into someone who displays an extreme, often violent or psychotic, level of devotion to a love interest.

Yandere!Shishigumi

Bonus: Louis, Melon, and Chief Lion

Previous Yandere!Shishigumi ask

I am weak for Yandere!Shishigumi- Forgive any errors I tried to get this done in a reasonable time

Ibuki

If you had to pick a yandere to have an obsession with you, you're best off with Ibuki. He's dedicated, and willing to do whatever it takes to make you happy.

This does not include giving you to someone else. Despite his loving and supportive nature, you'll find anyone who starts to even have an inkling of an interest in you tends to vanish or changes their mind quickly. Ibuki will claim that the one good thing about being a lion, means that people listen and obey him without much thought because of his species. He uses it to his advantage.

Ibuki is the kind of yandere who will provide services in order to gain your affection. He prides himself on being who and what you need at any given time.

The sort of guy who does the secret admirer thing. Suddenly someone has bought you flowers, paid it forward for your food...

Ibuki’s ideal evening is being alone with you, watching a movie. Maybe while he sits next to you, he gets to put his hand next to yours. Would it be to forward to lock his pinky with yours?

Ibuki will and has killed for you, you just don’t know it. Once you catch his eye, a lot of your problems vanish fairly quickly...as do troublesome people. You haven’t seen that jerk cashier from the store in a while

Free

He’s the most forward of the yandere’s. He’d probably ask you out within a few weeks of establishing contact

Free is the kind of yandere that would not only kill for you, but kill in front of you. As a gang member, he will get away with it. You should be grateful, he doesn’t kill with his bare hands for just anyone. 

Will take rejection the worst out of all the Shishigumi, and is very reactionary. It’s not a good idea to trigger him

Free’s knee jerk reaction is to kill anyone who gives you an issue. While many of the other shishigumi will try to find ways around it, Free just doesn’t hesitate. You’d be grateful to never have to deal with the problem ever again, right?

Despite being the most volatile yandere, if you return his affections, he’s one of the most easy yanderes to manage. If you tell him to stop, or avoid killing, he will. He’ll complain a lot, but he’ll listen. He’s wrapped around your finger, and everyone knows it

He’s also very easy to distract from whatever issue he feels he has to deal with. The guy will drop almost anything if it means he just gets to kiss you. 

Free is most happy when he has his darling in the mansion surrounded by the other lions. They’re protected, in his den, and most of all: they can’t get away. He sleeps easier you you in his bed

Probably leaves body parts of your 'enemies' in your house as gifts to show off that someone is looking out for you.

Dolph

Actually very reasonable. He doesn’t jump with his emotions, and he’s calm and collected. He’s not driven by his moetions, but he’s influenced by them

Has and will kill for his darling, but he’s smart and tends to play the long wait game. It’ll always be within a year, but Dolph will stalk, learn weaknesses, then strike. 

Dolph is strong, resilient, and will risk his life for his darling if needed

Dolph will often talk about his Darling to Agata, and speaks of them highly

Dolph isn't the sort to break into his Darling's home, but will often watch through windows, or guard outside. It's also not uncommon for him to be in the vicinity when his darling gets off from school/work

When Dolph is finally dating his Darling, he doesn't intend for them to ever leave him....ever. Breaking up isn't an option, and as far as Dolph is concerned, you're basically married

Like Free, Dolph is most relaxed when his darling is in the Shishigumi mansion, and only then does he feel comfortable leaving their side

Agata

Agata is a level headed guy, but he is fueled by his emotions. As soon as he sees you, he's hooked

He does interact with you, but you'd probably not remember him much. He doesn't stand out, but will often ride on the train with you, shop at the same grocery stores you do, ect. It's all on purpose so he can be as close as possible, without you getting creeped out

Any time he speaks with you, he almost thinks of it as part of a video game. Every social interaction with you that ends well, he feels like he gains an affinity. It also means even small interactions have a big impact on him. He may see a hello as a hello especially for him, instead of a social nicety.

Agata turns to Dolph for advice, and Dolph gives it freely. Dolph also will check in on your if Agata is unable to. Dolph is the only lion Agata trusts with you. Unlike the rest of the Shishigumi, Agata is not comfortable with you being near them. Why? His instincts tell him they're competition.

Agata is the youngest, and best, yandere at tracking his Darlings online presence. In combination with Dope, the two of them can find any and all social media, and they both use it to track their respective darlings and find more out about them.

Dope

Speaking of Dope, he's one of the few Yanderes that manipulates those around you. He'll gets to know the people you know, and get information about you from them. If he manipulates those around you, then he'll have no opposition when it comes to getting to you.

Dope also gets to know you quickly, and because he's so good at talking and manipulating...you tell him a lot of things you'd normally not say so quickly.

Dope isn't naturally violent, but it doesn't mean he wont get his hands dirty if he has to. He's still a lion, and can loose his temper.

Dope loves to pulls strings behind the scenes and manipulate others to get you ahead or for you to have an advantage

Dope probably knows more of your information than most. He knows your blood type

Hino

More unstable than one would think.

His looks has gotten him far in life, and out of all the yanderes, Hino is one of the ones who can NOT take any sort of rejection

Hino is generally gentle, and he's a gift giver. Expect to find new things in your home that you didn't purchase yourself

Yes he's been in your house. Good looks aren't the only reason he's in the Shishigumi

Hino loves to be close to you, and will travel the same areas, and probably steals blankets and shirts you wear

Hino probably is more bold than many other yanderes, and introduces himself early. He's charming, and somewhat manipulative.

His favorite nickname for you is Darling

Miguel

Miguel is close second behind Free in terms of killing for his Darling. Miguel is strong, and doesn't hold back on anyone he deems as a threat. It doesn't matter who or what they are

Miguel is your silent protector, and it doesn't take long for him to weasel his way into your life. He ends up helping you with any, and everything

Probably introduced himself by helping you with heavy groceries that were difficult to carry or something

If Miguel were to ever kidnap his darling, there's very little they could do to stop him. Miguel is strong, there's very few animals would could beat him in a strength check

Even though he seems intimidating, Yandere!Miguel is actually very sweet. His love language is acts of service

Sabu

You will never see Sabu coming. He's basically a ghost, and he doesn't show himself unless he wants you to see him

Probably does maintenance on your vehicle in the middle of the night to make sure you drive safely

Sabu is also the kind to clean your home while you're away and keep it tidy. You'll know someone was there (he wants the acknowledgement)

Know that no lock can keep him out, and with help from Dope and Jinma, you're security system is useless

Sabu is a yandere that knows his intense affection isn't normal, but knows how to curve it. You'll meet him, eventually. When you do? You're already in so deep that in the matter of a few hours he can take you and make it like you never existed

Jinma

Jinma probably knows you so well that he has a wall with everyone you know and interact with up on a wall connected with red string

Would know your social security number/card pin numbers/ any vital info

Jinma knows your likes and dislikes, and has your habits memorized

One of the yandere that likes to come to your house when you not home and just exist where you normally are

While he knows a lot, he also knows not to freak you out and introduces himself slowly over time. You wont know how deep his obsession is until you've already fallen for him

Melon

The only yandere worse than Melon MIGHT be Yafya

Melon doesn't care who he hurts. Your family? A nuisance. Your friends? Boring. Who care about any of them when you have him?

Will kidnap you on a whim, and no one can really stop him. Depending when he does it, he potentially has the Shishigumi behind him

Locks you in a room and treats you like his pet

He's the kind of yandere who only lets you out of his sight if you're locked behind a door. You can go outside, but you have to go with him. Run, and you'll be caught and punished

On the flip side, he's more vulnerable with you than anyone else, and talks honestly

He really enjoys having you close, and will take your hand so you can scratch behind his ears/antlers

Louis

RIP you.

Yandere!Louis is also very emotional and volatile. Once he wants you, he has you.

He has money to make anything standing in his way disappear.

He treats you well, and spoils you with cash and items. You just have to stay by his side, and not stray to far or try to run

You will never have alone time again. Even if Louis isn't there, the Shishigumi is

Thinks he knows what's best for you, no matter what

You get a sugar daddy, but you also loose your freedom. You wont be allowed to have a job, or hobbies that surround you with other people. Louis is all you need.

Chief Lion

It takes only a few hours before he has you in his grasp, locked in the Shishigumi mansion with no means of escape.

He likes it best when you're naked, or are wearing high quality clothing

He will buy you anything you need, so going 'out' to shop isn't necessary

You don't get to leave the mansion without him. He doesn't even trust the rest of the lions with you

The kind of yandere who loves touching and having you close.

If you do need time 'outside' he's going to have you go to a spa to be pampered (plus you're inside with someone he's paid to keep an eye on you)

Forget your old life, as far as anyone else knows, you're still a missing person
