as a fan of the space race and the large financial black hole of musks pockets that is space X I am deeply saddened to know that I wont get any more funny haha penis rocket explosions for the next year as elons famous "rapid unscheduled dissasembly" rockets are taken of the market

elons' rockets have been environmental disasters for the land, animals, and people that the toxic chunks rain down on, and his money has been made through deeply unethical financial exploitation over a lot of markets that were made measurably worse by his participation.

also, a shit ton of the funding is from the american military industrial complex, because they want to use the technology to make better drones and missiles to kill more people more often. even if everything actually went to plan and he was able to get people to mars alive, the mars settlement project will involve generations of indentured service workers dying of radiation poisoning in sealed little bunkers on another planet while rich tourists fuck around for funsies.

it's extremely funny that the rockets go boom, but the best case scenario is he never gets to fire another one ever, dies very soon, and his assets are chopped up by competitors who never again recreate any of his work.

Breeding as a concept? Amazing

Mentions of breeding/getting pregnant during dirty talk? Outstanding

Real life pregnancy? No. Horrifying. Never. Hard pass. Worst thing imaginable.

Remus discovered his sexuality by spending a lovely summer with a wonderful openly queer boy who quickly became one of his best friends, his confidant and his life-time support afterwards, not to mention his lover for most of his life.

Meanwhile, in the exact same summer, Sirius got his sexuality brutally torn from the deepest pits of his own mind by his abusive, homophobic mother before he could even realize it fully, then got beaten senseless for it and hurt by his own family to the point of almost bleeding out.

I think about this daily and y’all are not thinking about it enough.

…can’t believe i need to say this in 2024, but if you see a tumblr blog that’s an obvious sockpuppet, just block them. don’t give them any attention.

for those who weren’t aware, a sockpuppet is an account that someone uses to pretend to be someone they aren't, usually for the sake of accomplishing a particular goal. "asexual" sockpuppets were used extensively in tumblr's ace discourse years (which reached their peak in 2016-2019). aphobes and exclusionists made blogs where they roleplayed as exaggerated aspec caricatures, trying to paint asexuals as childish, ignorant, bigoted, etc - in a word, "cringey." crazey-acey-in-spacey was an especially notorious example of a sockpuppet that a lot of people took at face value, since their deliberately outrageous behavior (falsely) confirmed a lot of the biases tumblr users already had about aspecs. it's NEVER worth engaging with any of these accounts - don't feed the trolls, as they used to say.

ways to spot an "asexual" sockpuppet:

makes a lot of statements that are intentionally tone-deaf and offensive. especially look out for sudden mentions of race/analogies to racism ("ace genocide," "ace reparations") - a common tactic in the acecourse days was to paint asexuality as a "white" orientation, and to suggest asexuals were racist.

references other infamous sockpuppets like crazy-acey and the "warm milk aceggot" post.

makes claims about famous people being aspec, especially people who are known for bigoted beliefs. it was very common for aphobes to make asexual moodboards of people like thatcher or trump; they did this to paint aspecs as out of touch with reality and the wider queer community, and to strengthen the association between asexuality and bigotry.

use of the words "acey" or "asexy." some people do use these words in a positive sense now, but anti-aspec shit-stirrers used them a lot back in the day to imply asexuals were stupid and childish. (and if we're being honest? autistic, too. the aphobic parts of tumblr had a VERY strong undercurrent of ableism.)

this one's a bit less common, but watch out for references to christianity. one widespread aphobic talking point is calling asexuals "puritans" and suggesting that they're aligned more with conservative christianity than the rest of the queer community. aspec christians certainly exist, but given the history of this site, it's just better to double-check aspec accounts that bring up christianity out of the blue when they're engaging with other blogs.

it can be hard to tell the difference between a sockpuppet and a genuine aspec account if you don't have the exact same amount of 2016 tumblr brainrot as me, so feel free to message me and ask about anything you're not sure about - my dms are always open 👍

I've decided to go for move in ready houses for homes in Ender Falls. If not, then it would never get finished because I could not furnish that many houses. I've put down some of my older houses and am going to building up some new ones, this is one of the new ones!

Hi! I'm going to be taking $10 emergency commissions. They will be icons and look like this: (pictures below). I take PayPal only. It's $10 for flat color (no shading, like the girl with hearts and all pink.) And $20 for shading and lighting along with color. (Like the girl with dark hair and pink clothing!)

The emergency is I have to move and don't have quite enough to move into an apartment just yet and I'm not sure if I'll get the paycheck I need from my job before I have to be out of the place I'm in now.

Anything is appreciated. My PayPal is @iriCAPIRI and I can only take that form of payment as cash app has royally screwed me over and refuses to fix itself. I might eventually also make a Ko-Fi which would definitely help with done light donations if anyone wanted to try that. I would also doodle/draw something for you too if you did donate anything on Ko-Fi!

Thank you! 💗💗💗

My favorite argument against literally anything like "it's not natural" or something along those lines is simply I Don't Care

[lavendervirgos]

I don't care how angry you are, but you must never ever attack someone with personal stuff they shared with you and trusted you with when you were on good terms. Or spread it somewhere for everyone to see.

I know this is so And Then Everyone Clapped, but when me and Mr. Hugo were taking a walk together, he stopped me for a few seconds to gaze wistfully through the front door of a restaurant, and someone popped out while we were walking away to Invite Him Inside

There are many, many reasons I love Dracula Daily and @re-dracula but near the top of the list is bringing public attention to the amazing Quincey Morris. Here's a guy who is the ultimate himbo hero, a true example of positive masculinity, and he's gone largely forgotten for over a century. But now! Now he's having his day at last!
