I don't know how or when or why it will happen, but I feel like my time on the Internet, and what eventually morphed into social media, is coming to an end. I'm pretty disenchanted and disenfranchised and I feel like I'm waiting for the last straw to fall.
And this isn't like, ooh I should take a break, this is ohh this is going to get worse with or without me maybe I should swim for shore?
I guess I should find replacements. Read more books. Just be ready for the final disappointment. The degradation point of no return.

[ ◉¯] tlougram [ ◉¯]
#just a silly AU
Tumblr media
ellie is typing. . . ╰──╮
Tumblr media
ೃ༄
[ ◉¯] ellie’s account reads like a tech-illiterate-social-degenerate
[ ◉¯] girl literally has 3k followers (boggles her mind how it’s even possible) all of varying degrees of sketchiness
[ ◉¯] her bio’s literally just her initials—ew (yep thinks she’s hilarious ) paired with “space is cool ig” [insert shitty space emoji]
[ ◉¯] tbh—she doesn’t really get the whole “influencer” thing (like what is she influencing???)
[ ◉¯] like the only reason she finally caved and made an account to begin with is because dina and jesse practically bullied her into it
[ ◉¯] which shows—her feed is a hot mess of random pics; memes, a random cat video she saved on her gallery
[ ◉¯] and don’t expect to be fed either—her account is D.E.A.D (you’d be setting yourself up for disappointment)
[ ◉¯] definitely the type to forget she even has an account
[ ◉¯] but best believe—when she does post, its spaced out between 2-3 months
[ ◉¯] maybe a handful of artsy-fartsy pics somewhere in between
[ ◉¯] but most of her pics are literally just sketches (she drew at the back of her physics book) random crap she thinks is funny, memes that only make sense to her, n the occasional trip to the museum/nature pics
[ ◉¯] and like a grand total of one—just one selfie (and yes she did delete the rest)
[ ◉¯] fun fact: she may or may not have accidentally liked one of Dina’s/Cat’s old selfies on a burner account
[ ◉¯] tried to do damage control by unliking almost immediately
[ ◉¯] since we’re being messy—(swears she’d kill anyone on site who dares bring that up but whatever) she once got a chat request from a bot thinking it was a real person 💀
[ ◉¯] spent weeks on end flirting and ofc had to gush about it (like the true degenerate she is)
ೃ༄
spacenerd: dude shes hot
제시: whos hot
[spacenerd has sent an attachment]
dinasure: uh ellie
spacenerd: ??
dinasure: gonna hold ur hand when I say this 😃
spacenerd: she replies quick tho plus shes really nice ;)

dinasure: issa bot u moron 💀
[spacenerd has sent a voicenote]
▷ 0:00 ───|────── 0:30
dinasure: fuck no
dinasure: bro just block
제시: ^yea pretty sure @bot_bae ain’t real 😭
spacenerd: SHE SO IS
dinasure: chile…anyways so
spacenerd: u know wat
[spacenerd has left the chat]
dinasure: LMAOO cryingsh

제시:no cap that is sad
dinasure: real like how tf u gonna get catfished by a bot and fall in LOVE 🙃
제시: YEAH bro really down bad for ( . )( . )

dinasure: n that was like ONE time
spacenerd: me when i lie
dinasure: i like my men less sparkly now!!!
jesse is typing . . . ╰──╮
Tumblr media
ೃ༄
[ ◉¯] unlike ellie—jesse takes his social media presence very seriously
[ ◉¯] got like +8k followers (most of which are girls) cause that man is a snack (duh)
[ ◉¯] his whole vibe is mellow but cool
[ ◉¯] like his IG feed reads like an episode of Crazy Rich Asians (with the extra added thirst traps of course)
[ ◉¯] aka a perfectly curated mix of aesthetic photos, artsy shots, friends/family and ofc his dog Yeontan
[ ◉¯] definitely the type of boyfriend to post unflattering pics of his gf but not out of malice
[ ◉¯] but you know in a—i’m obnoxiously in love sorta way
[ ◉¯] he may be bilingual but he’s very much in touch with his culture—like dude got a bunch of pics of him back in the Motherland
[ ◉¯] ellie low-key tries to get him to teach her a few curse words in Korean but like 99% of the time ends up teaching her the wrong words instead
[ ◉¯] ofc his username is in hangul— (if anything it’s to make his mom happy—because yes he follows her back on Insta)
[ ◉¯ ] and yes he’s such a boy mom—dina and ellie give him a ton of shit for it
ೃ༄
spacenerd: totally know what that means frfr
dinasure: oppa?
제시: 죽을래?
google translation: you want to die?
[ ◉¯] it’s an inside joke, lord knows how many kpop stans flood his dms—in which he makes the point to block them on site (as he should lol) because korean he may BE—your oppa he is NOT
[ ◉¯] yeah—he makes it pretty damn clear in his bio “yall gotta stop with the BTS shit”
dina is typing . . . ╰──╮
Tumblr media
ೃ༄
[ ◉¯] Dina’s THAT bitch
[ ◉¯] got like +30k followers—is the whole package; hot—effortlessly cool, funny, charismatic (it’s literally unfair)
[ ◉¯] ofc she’s been scouted by at least three modelling agencies
[ ◉¯] and her pictures? flawless—we’re talking gorgeous—goddess-esque—baddie
[ ◉¯] literally the worst part about being friends with Dina: is how ridiculously photogenic she is
[ ◉¯] can roll up out of bed, unshowered, bare-faced and still look hot af (god has favourites I suppose)
[ ◉¯] definitely the type to have the most engagement (via replies, comments, shares, tagged—you name it)
[ ◉¯] absolutely loves sharing her hot girl adventures/outings���fr the embodiment of hot girl summer
[ ◉¯] expect an assortment of her hiking, visiting galleries, cafés, festivals + parties, and of course her many different fits (not that anyone’s complaining)
[ ◉¯] bio reads: my mom thinks I’m cool
[ ◉¯] don’t get me started on her simps—if delulu were a person, it would be Dina’s cult of fanboys
[ ◉¯] one time a dude wrote her poetry—straight up typed a whole ass sonnet ( Shakespeare reincarnate but in simptongue)
[ ◉¯] in which of course her friends had to add their two cents
ೃ༄
spacenerd: its always ily but never
spacenerd: my queen i kneel, my heart it weeps 😞
제시: lmaooooo 💀
[ ◉¯]not just down bad— we’re talking the most absurd, thirsty/depraved comments—
whitedevil commented: Id let you ruin my life
christian.not.jay commented: feet? 🤤
chrislovesyou commented: looked at my girl and sighed
ೃ༄
[ ◉¯] imagine the heartbreak if they ever found out she has a whole ass man (cue what does she SEE in him)
[ ◉¯] so much salt it could fill a whole an entire ocean
cat is typing . . . ╰──╮
Tumblr media
ೃ༄
[ ◉¯] Cat’s account oozes creativity—doodles, sketches, watercolour—digital art the whole nine yards
[ ◉¯] her feed is basically one giant art gallery—like an extension of her art portfolio
[ ◉¯] so if you’re looking for an artsy feed, look no further
[ ◉¯] def an alt girlie (lowkey goth/punk lite) aka dark and edgy but with a soft side to her
[ ◉¯] and by lowkey I mean a beautiful—soft, kind of morbid artistry
[ ◉¯] the vibes she exudes with the outfits, piercings, the makeup and tattoos? (Chefs kiss) high key hot but intimidating
[ ◉¯] not too keen with the whole parasocial thing— “eh it’s nice having people look at my work, but not for me” kinda vibe
[ ◉¯] the type to solely use it for promotional purposes that and activism (btw NOT just for the brownie points like would deadass go outside, touch grass and do something about it)
[ ◉¯] definitely advocates for the environment—supports charities and organizations who fight against systematic oppression (racism, misogyny, etc.)
[ ◉¯] which is one of many reasons why Ellie’s got a huge fat ass crush on her (if it wasn’t already so obvious)
[ ◉¯] proudly Asian—wears it like a badge of honour and is the first to call out racists (and homophobes) any KIND of bigotry tbh
[ ◉¯] her bio reads—“life’s too short for shitty music” and “gay btw” :)” y’know for the losers that might need a little disclaimer
[ ◉¯] not a fan of stupid Asian stereotypes
[ ◉¯] you just know she gets a ton of gross fetishizing DMs (like why do they ALWAYS have an anime pfp)
[ ◉¯] because ruthless she can be with her clap backs

Had a dream where there was this animated minecraft movie that was about the hermits stealing back the screenshotting technology from an evil scientist who wanted to keep it for himself and I was watching it like "hell yeah, without screenshots, how would we have the pintrest girlies realizing they're queer from memes from other sites?" and there was this whole big fight scene with like witches and magic cats that I think were with Scar and he had some funny lines about how cool he looked and someone (either Xisuma or Mumbo, I can't remember) had this really cool line that was something about calling the villagers(yes minecraft villagers) to action because they owed him a favor, and some of the villagers were known as "door bearers" and they were literally a person fused within a door but that's not the point, and then I woke up.
also it's worth noting that everything(setting, hermits, villagers) was in an animated minecraft style except for the door bearers, who were photo realistic and bald and I think their existence was one of constant pain.
anyway, here's my 5am whiteboard sketch of what the door bearers looked like
Tumblr media
yes they ran like that

how many cpns can you get from a 7 second douyin by wyb? 💚💚💚
The Douyin King is back! I know i’m not the only one who missed his random ass douyin posts. They are very much welcome, he is free to share one everyday. I’m cackling at the comparison going around between WYB and other people. So, the rest of the celebrities and influencers are posting on a regular basis per month and have different topics.
Tumblr media
photos at work, travel photos, interests/hobbies. this line represents the whole year. there is another diagram that shows how many per line, like 1-2 or more. then you have wang yibo 😂😂😂
Tumblr media
line 1 : I'm busy at work and have no time. // line 2: I don’t have time to skateboard, ride a motorcycle or play golf // line 3: Visit my gege’s camping site and the volcano scenery is very good and has a lot of material// line 4: happy and don’t have much time// line 5: Shoot whoever is lucky enough to shoot!
then all the lines after is when he will post — shows that he will share a lot towards the end of the year to keep up with KPI. lol. he is rushing his homework again, to the point that on the video, people are searching what wyb’s kpi mean. which is the engagement metrics he needs to reach and now he gotta work on it, even the fans know and expect it.
the memes are also hilarious! 😂😂😂 ( cat memes below ) basically him working on making his “cool” posts to the internet.
Tumblr media
Honestly, never change yibo. We love you as you are, Our Gremlin Best Actor. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
That was a long intro, now let’s move on to the sweets & CPN…..
• @rainbowsky already talked about the messenger bird CPN & how it might be for ZZ’s Hennessy endorsement.
• similarity in how sometimes, they just wanna post an emoji for caption. this one is a cute parallel from 2021 and 2023. If you wanna further clown with WYB using kadian 13 for yizhan then go ahead too 😌
Tumblr media
• it is being compared to him referencing his shoes before, picking up his shoes ( xie zi ) (xz) ; and now it’s another homophonic clue ( jm ) ⬇️⬇️⬇️
Tumblr media
yes we know that you get to meet more often now cause you are both in Beijing! It’s so cool how their language can be used for so many things and you can play with it to send different meanings. international fans could never 💀💀💀💀
• talking about picking up and meeting, cpfs remembered ZZ’s 11/17/21 douyin post. It’s the one with him and a light saber and a sexy transformation. Going by his clothes, I’m thinking it was what he wore during the DC tencent conference and at the time of posting it was already considered as leftover. but I could be wrong, cause he might have worn other leather jackets that year for ads.
anyway, the point is — please compare the background of the rooms. the walls. you know. add the floor too. 👀
Tumblr media Tumblr media
look, this isn’t the most unique type of interior. i would say it’s pretty basic like how we clown about hotel curtains. i’m guessing yibo’s is an evisu shoot sometime ago ( cause his hair is not that fluffy anymore idk if his stylist did something to make it like that even with his recent cut ). this place may be a studio of sorts that can be rented out and they just happen to have filmed there.
or… or…..
this could be XZS office. or one of their rented office. Why? this CPN is similar to the one in 2020. How we speculated that the birthday shoot was done in XZS office so ZZ could supervise the direction of the shoot too.
Tumblr media
we also love to talk about how xzs and ybo office are right next to each other ( it’s a fact xzs is close to yuehua building actually ) so maybe that can be an explanation too 😂😂😂 it’s not uncommon for an office to have a separate space to do regular photoshoots so maybe theirs have that. or this could have been done after and wyb dropped off their office and took this.
hahahahahaha! so many explanations all because of a wall. that’s the kind of life we turtles have 🙃
Personally, i’m hoping for a 24 hour relay between them. 🙏🏼
-END.

Hey welcome back to my BG3 Hot Takes
While I have your attention, here's a cool site to help Palestine, all you gotta do is click it daily.
This session was inspired by @lipsie, gettin me ttalkin way too much. Yes I am aware that the tadpole changes things, and they have to make it balanced for the game blah blah blah- let a bitch complain.
Screenshots sourced from the Baldur's Gate 3 Wiki
Tumblr media
Gale is the only character I feel is spec'd correctly, He's smart but fiuckin stupid, he has autism rizz, mam could not lift any box you asked him to, the only reason his constitution is 13 is because he's been dealing with the Orb and he's used to it by now.
Tumblr media
Karlach should start with 20 strength and you CANNOT convince me otherwise, her charisma should be higher also, she's a ball of sunshine and could put the fear of god into anyone, and the line "Gods I wanna ride you til you see stars" will never leave my brain. Give this bitch a 15. She do be a little dumb I'll give you that.
Tumblr media
Shadowheart is just funny to me, How can her wisdom be a 17 when she's been cloistered away for so long? Her wisdom is only a 17 in ONE SPECIFIC SUBJECT, a subject where she's forced to give up her memories. Memories are where we get our wisdom. Wisdom is gained through lived experiences, I'd give you the 17 for endgame Shart, but not start of game Shart. I'll take the 8 CHA cause she's a bitch (said with love, me too babe) but she knows enough to get what and where she wants so I think we should nudge it up to like 10.
Tumblr media
Lae'zel.... I think it's unfair to put Lae'zel's intelligence at 10. Her wisdom being low, yeah i get that she's been cloistered away in a society that believes its the only way, it's all she knows. But intelligence? No. She might know much about Faeruns culture and people, but she knows EVERYTHING about the stars. And there's far more of that than there will ever be of Faerun. She's the funniest person we know, give her 9 CHA.
Tumblr media
Wyll my beloved, do you airbrush those abs on? Do you wake up every morning and contour them? I DON'T BELIEVE YOU DO!!!!!!!!! SO WHO'S THE ASS WHO DECIDED YOUR STRENGHT WAS A FUCKIN 8??????? THE BLADE OF FRONTIERS SHOULD HAVE AT LEAST A 13. He deserve a 15 but I know they won't give it to him. Lipsie and I were talking about him and they're right, WHEN WE DUMP THE BITCH HE SHOULD RESPEC INTO BARD.
Tumblr media
Astarion..... oh Astarion.... you're such a disaster. Such a wet cat of a man. Such a pathetic little mew mew. I shit on him a lot, but I do really love his character and development lol. LESS STR MAKE HIM WEAK, he has been starved and living off rats and shame, he can have his measly 8 AFTER he drinks... uh "Thinking" Blood. His CHA being 10 is perfect actually no notes. I personally think his actual INT should be lower, not too much lower, maybe 11/12, I knooooow he was a magistrate, but you can't tell me he's not giving himbo... no what was that word on the meme graph? Himbim? Himbim.
Tumblr media
Halsin.......... 10 STR? 10?!?!?!?! You built him LIKE THAT and give him 10 STR?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!? What in the nine hells...... Weaker than Karlach of course, but 10????? Give that man 15 at least 8 INT???????????? 8???????? LARIAN WHY DO YOU HATE HIM???? Is it because he isn't Gale? Mans has been studying the mindflayers on his own, he's been studying the shadow curse... on his own. HE'S A MASTER HEALER?!?!?! AN ARCHDRUID?!?!?!?!?!?!? That takes time, study, and dedication. You wanna assign him himbo so bad. He's just a whole well rounded man with autism,. (Not a dig on himbos, quite literally my favorite genre of Man). This is just 'cause he fucks isn't it.
Tumblr media
Minthara she's so much smarter than Larian gives her credit for. While I agree with the WIS, that's more a product of being so closed off, Her INT is much higher. I'd give her a 14? She cunning, just because it's used for Evil deeds doesn't mean she hasn't been she hasn't put a lot of thought into her work. She lived in Menzoberranzan for Gods' sake. She had to be smart or be killed?!? She's said so on multiple occasions! Just because she's Evil aligned doesn't mean she not smart. (She's just as smart as our average Bear according to Larian)
Tumblr media
Minsc...... First off let me say that I love that they chose this image. A Bad Bitch. Anyways, anyone who doesn't find that dumb happy face charming is either lying or literally has a stick up their ass.... 12 CHA. Also why is he so weak? I know he isn't like actually weak... but mans chunked that mimic? Let him have 14.
Tumblr media
Jaheira I'll give you the 10 STR, she's complained about her knees like three times in my most recent session. 8 INT? So what I'm getting here.... is anyone not an origin character is just baseline 8? Lazy. Especially considering she was ALREADY GIVEN STATS IN TWO PREVIOUS GAMES. In both BG1 and BG2 she has an intelligence of 10, and if anything she's only gotten smarter over time. I wasn't gonna do this... but left is 1 right is 2.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
15, 14, 17, 10, 14, 15, and 15, 17, 17, 10, 14, 15
Make it make sense. I know she's old at this point, but in my game she killed Sarevok again so idk man.
Rip me apart in the notes ;)
But do it nicely...

I want to start adding text descriptions to stuff i reblog, do you have any advice? is there a guide or something you use, the style of your IDs is very nice.
hey! thats great that you want to start writing IDs. I've reblogged guides before and ill tag this post with the tag they're in (image descriptions) so its easy to browse!
in addition to those other resources, here's some guidelines i personally keep in mind, & what i structure different IDs like.
for text transcripts: source & type of image, author, date if possible. here are some pretend/template IDs:
ID. a twitter screenshot from user @.[username] dated [date] that reads: "[tweet]." End ID.
i put the period after the @ symbol so it doesnt try to tag a nonexistent (or unrelated) user on this site, and a screenreader will just pause there briefly.
ID. a photo of a page from the book [name] by [author]. text reads: [transcript]. End ID.
if the OP cited the author/book/source, you can just do "Transcript: [text]. End transcript."
for actual images:
type of image is really important!
photograph, edited photograph, reaction image, edited reaction image, painting, digital painting, digital drawing, etc. you should always put what kind of image it is.
keep in mind the purpose of the image!
if its an art piece or a photo of one, its good to describe the medium, style, colors, and subject.
if it's a reaction image or other meme, you don't have to describe the surroundings in loving detail. the "point" of the image is enough.
if its a photograph, it might also be an art piece, or from the news, or someone sharing their pet. the amount and kind of detail again depends on the point of the image.
don't make judgements or assumptions!
dont describe things as badly drawn or badly photographed- and on the flip side, dont describe things as cute or beautiful. describe whats in the image, not how it makes you feel. if you love a certain part of how a photograph is framed, or how the light is painted in a piece of art, say that specifically. "beautiful" means nothing! do you mean realistic? vibrantly colored? "cute" means nothing! do you mean in a cartoony style? or that the subject matter is a cat, which many people find cute? be specific!
dont make statements about the gender or race of the people in the photo or art piece, especially if it's real people (like a news photo) unless you know those things as a fact (celebrities, fictional characters, people you know personally, people where it is mentioned in the article the photo is from). you can just describe things like hair length, skin tone, etc. exceptions to this rule imo are stock photos- eg if im captioning my favorite stock photo of all time, cyber woman with corn, i am going to describe it as "a stock photo of a white woman in a futuristic silver and black wraparound visor, wearing a silver bodysuit and cradling an ear of corn near her face and smiling slightly."
here are some example descriptions, all from images i have on my phone.
Tumblr media
ID. a photo of two cats laying head to head on someones outstretched legs, which are under a blanket. one cat is an orange tabby, and the other is a gray and white splotched tabby. End ID.
the point of this image is my cats- im not going to spend time describing the blanket, the couch, the stuff you can see in the background, bc it's not relevant to the image, and adds nothing.
Tumblr media
ID. a photo taken through a rainy window at twilight, with the camera focused on the raindrops on the glass, so the lights in the houses across the street are out of focus. the lights reflect on the wet pavement in a warm yellow glow. End ID.
i took this the other night bc i thought it looked cool how blurry it was- id consider this more of an "art" photo, so im describing the aspects of the framing etc that make it that- i wasnt just trying to show how rainy it was, but to take a photo in an interesting way, so those traits are "worth" describing.
Tumblr media
ID. a photo of an acrylic painting done on a cardboard packing envelope of a city street at sunset, all the building windows reflecting gold. there are purple fluffy clouds in the sky, lit from below with peach and gold. the USPS tracking number barcode is still visible in the gap between houses at the end of the street. the brush strokes are very visible, the perspective is wonky, and the orange underpainting is visible at the edges. End ID.
this is a new ID for something i painted and already posted and i dont feel like getting the old ID. medium, style, and specific details i think are important are included. the perspective being wonky is a bit of a value judgement i wouldn't make about Other people's art, but it's my own and i think its an important detail so!
Tumblr media
ID. an edited catcrumb comic, showing a simple mspaint illustration of a cat happily sorting things into piles with the caption, "sort sort. i love to arbitrarily sort." the cat has been colored in gray and its ears have been colored like homestuck troll horns, and the sorting piles replaced with some classpect symbols. End ID.
this is a good example of a edited image- its important to give (to some degree) a sense of what the original image was, say that its edited, and describe the changes. i dont need to list the classpect symbols i put on there, bc its not relevant to the message of the image- it would do nothing but make the ID longer.
oh- and to cap off the post- here is cyber woman with corn:
Tumblr media
ID. a stock photo of a white woman in a futuristic silver and black wraparound visor, wearing a silver bodysuit and cradling an ear of corn near her face and smiling slightly. End ID.

A very easy workaround to not being able to ask for money on AO3 is to link to a carrd with all your info on it - where you can be found on other social media, a bio page, a page with some fandom shenanigans like what ships you like and what character you stan, etc. - and put a link to a ko-fi on the other social media accounts, not on the carrd itself or AO3. It's not begging people for money, it's making note of one place where you are located in a list of them. People are not interested in paying you will not click on it, but they may end up following you on other social media and end up growing your online presence until someone comes along that will. And technically no one can prove you were paid for writing fanfic; for all the law knows, you were paid for your curated artisanal cat memes on Twitter or for your Instagram infographics about shipping data (shoutout to people who do that, seeing the pie chart breakdowns fascinate me) or any other number of things.
Also it's a good way to make fandom friends. People who are into the same fandoms as you see your sense of humor and personality/vibes on other sites and sometimes reach out to say hi, and then you end up chatting. It's a good way to find your fellow dorks (I say as a total dork). I've never done a carrd with a ko-fi link but I've benefited from it a lot. Sometimes you get really nice people reaching out with fanart inspired by the fic or with song recommendations that go with your fic, which is how I found my favorite band, which is how I ended up going to one of their shows, which is where I met my wife.
You can get a lot of cool benefits from fandom, you just have to interact with it in a way that's more mature than "gimme money". Respecting the rules of a place is just basic etiquette.
Also I'm autistic and for what it's worth your tone didn't read as condescending to/looking down on people, it read as "what part of 'this could get the archive shutdown' didn't you understand?!" which is a valid frustration to have given this debate happens again and again despite the explanations being perfectly clear the first time.

[cw discussion of animal illness/medical crises; emotional manipulation; talking about scams and scammers]
Jsyk: I do not and will not boost or reblog fundraising posts on request or when they’re directly linked to me by people who I don’t know, often people who don’t even follow me. Mutual aid posts are a big part of the social media ecosystem especially on tumblr but there are also plenty of scams that exploit genuine sources of affinity within marginalized communities (disabled people, trans people, people with precarious housing situations, etc) in an incredibly cynical manner.
I just received a request like this from a blog that was
all of two days old
filled with an apparently random selection of fandom posts and memes, all reblogged without any kind of tags or commentary, even a fandom name
...with no other kind of original posts whatsoever, not even shitposts or personal posts, nothing
not following me or anyone else I know
using an icon meant to evoke all kinds of immediate emotional reactions of affinity and sympathy — sweet-looking blue-haired smol bean picrew in front of the trans flag
The request itself could have been perfectly genuine — request for financial help with vet bills for a sick cat, "please help, save his life, I need to raise money in 2 weeks for surgery" — but it's surrounded by a thicket of screaming red flags.
Tumblr media
(Payments made using PayPal’s “friends & family” functionality aren't covered by purchase protection and cannot be reimbursed, even if the payment was made under false pretenses. Cool.)
This shit is incredibly shady and incredibly manipulative. Lots of stuff to evoke strong emotions and sympathy; repeated calls to action and a super short timetable to save a poor cat’s life — all of this stuff is plausible by itself but these elements of the request are not incidental. The request itself is calculated to provoke a sense of intense urgency -- worry for the poor cat, sympathy for the owner -- and a sense of shame if you catch yourself hesitating to donate or spread the word. (What kind of heartless person doesn't want to help a cat? Wants to let a cat die? Wants to kill a cat? What kind of bad leftist ignores a poor trans person's cry for help? I'm a trans person and a cat lover, and when my cat was in the hospital I was inconsolable.) By itself, urgency isn’t a red flag -- emergencies have a way of emerging suddenly, pets get sick, shit costs money -- but combined with everything else about this post it absolutely is one. In the comments on the post it only took one person saying “hey, watch out, this post has some red flags for a scam so I’d hesitate before reblogging it” for comments to be turned off entirely.
Do I know for a die-hard certainty that this post was fraudulent and the OP was running a scam? I absolutely do not, and I'm not interested in teaching anyone how to scam better either. But if you *do* have a genuine fundraising post for any cause, even an urgent one: don't do it from a nearly-blank blog and don’t message random strangers about it, even if you think it’ll get your post more traction. You have no way of knowing their financial situation or if they're in any kind of position to donate, or whether they themselves are in tough financial straits.
I'm not anti-fundraising or anti-mutual-aid -- people on this site helped me pay for top surgery without going into crazy medical debt, that would not have been possible without the goodwill and generosity of other marginalized people -- but I've also ignorantly passed on scam messaging and been tricked out of money I seriously needed, not just by strangers either. The vast majority of scams function through high-pressure tactics and emotional manipulation. This shit is 101-level social engineering and you're going to encounter it all over the place in life, not just on social media. Learn about social engineering, keep your eyes peeled for potential dishonesty, and don't fall for it or spread this kind of messaging around to victimize someone else.

minidura chapter 1 react
Tumblr media
hey guys started reading minidura i think im in love
just imagining izaya going like "yahoo!! X3" man. i know mikado is the real protagonist and not being able to see through izaya's eyes adds to his charm and intrigue but like mannn itd be so fun to just watch him fuck shit up like in that one episode. he must be hilarious to people watch with
Tumblr media
god they're so fucking cute i love this chibi style
Tumblr media
IT'S HIMMM IT'S MY BABYGIRL
"he's the one who most fails to live up to his name"? is that like a kanji name joke goddammit
i really shouldnt just like. post the entire pages but it's such a pain to keep taking screenshots :sob: you guys have no idea the pain my wrists were in after that drr ten react
Tumblr media
haha dramatic irony but i just realized i have no idea what exactly izaya takes responsibility for and what stuff he blames on human nature/self-interest/naïvite and now i have to find out ugh
Tumblr media
durarara illustrators draw simon normally challenge :sob: im so sorry they do this to you king if i ever get around to drawing you ill do you justice
also tiny shizuo <3333
Tumblr media
obsessed with walker's cat face he and erika are so platonic(?) soulmates besties cringefail weeb team rocket ass duo
Tumblr media
i was 100% ready for erika to start grilling mikado on his supposed raging homosexual unrequited love(?) 300k slow burn romance but oh well. it happened in my head so it must be canon
i dont care enough about the raira trio to ship mikakida or whatever their ship name is (isnt the celty head girl named mika too. oops) but i do think it's funny that their ship name could be kidado because that sounds like cuidado. watch out
Tumblr media
ok i know they're trying to make him look cool but he does not look cool in the chibi art style lmfAOo
itd be really funny if they switched the styles to the normal manga style during serious moments like i think the bsd wan manga/anime did lmfao
Tumblr media
LMFAO??? i like how we only see the top of izaya's head pff-
celty my bbygirl i love your shadow puppets dont listen to them
Tumblr media
yk what it's actually a crime this didnt happen in canon
Tumblr media
AND HERE HE ISSS!!!!! cringefail pathetic loser my beloved
god i hope he narrates the entire minidura (he probably wont)
Tumblr media
ok he's really cute though....catboy irl fr
Tumblr media Tumblr media
CAUGHT MID MONOLOGUE
cant believe they're both on a rooftop together whoa prime spot for confessions amirite (<- delusional)
im posting the tiny floored izaya on his own later because that's adorable. he's so cute when he's half dead
itd be really funny if all the events from minidura were all in izaya's concussed ass head from this moment as explanation for being noncanon
Tumblr media
the "doctors hate him" meme but it's convenience store workers and shizuo heiwajima
actually construction workers probably hate shizuo too. and urban planners and anything that has to do with city work and also doctors because shizuo evades their healthcare insurance because he doesnt need it (i looked up japan's healthcare costs for this joke and concluded that i dont have enough time to pit the sources that say it's expensive and the sources that say it's reasonable against each other) and also vending machine companies
the "doctors hate him" meme but it's all of ikebukuro and shizuo (and also izaya)
i love how izaya just. stops bleeding. his platelets working mad crazy
(it's pretty easy to find translations online but here's the site im reading on anyway)

Tumblr media
name :: penny (short for penelope), sophie, bella, rosie, grace, alice, poppy, merry
age :: 9 to 12
pronouns :: predominantly she/her, will use purr/purrs, cloud/clouds, frog/frogs, fluff/fluffs, and yarn/yarns when she remembers they can be used to refer to herself (which isn’t often- it’s a bit much for her to get a hold of)
roles :: charge, little, innocence holder, ògregulator, catgirlxenorole
species :: catgirl!!
gender identity :: she doesn’t rly think about it a whole lot! so she is sticking to female until proven otherwise
orientation :: aroace (cus shes a kiddo — this may change if she ages!!)
source :: brainmade
aesthetic :: dopamine, kidcore, wholesome meme
appearance description :: sophie has shoulder length hair that’s been whipped back into a very sporadic ponytail… though most of the hair has fallen out or just doesn’t fit due to her placement. she often wears overalls paired with a sweater of some description (usually a bye one with clouds on it) that has pins all over the straps. mild scars scatter her face and legs from all the outdoor activists and occasional fight she gets into — but don’t you worry, cus rosie packs a MEAN punch when she wants to! those doofus boys never stood a chance!!
personality description :: sophie can and will get excited over the little things she sees during the day. no one is safe from her relentless optimism!! are you sad? boom, have a look at this cute cat gif. feeling down? then look at this shiny rock picked up just for you! grace hoards all of these tiny, seemingly useless objects to either cheer up her friends, dole out as gifts, or to add to her personal mini-hoard. even strangers can be victims to her unrelenting positivity: if someone looks down, merry will pepper them with questions and fun facts and maybe even some drawings until they feel better. that’s what she’s good at! even if the person has to fake it so they can back away… but don’t tell her that, you’d break her heart.
likes :: cool rocks, cool animals she found in the woods, bringing her favorite people cool things she found, coloring, self portraits, asking lots and LOTS of questions, talking to cool people, making new friends with anyone she meets, schoolyard games, flash dress up sites, cartoons like curious george, the owl house (early season!), bluey, the backyardigans, my little pony, craig of the creek, moon girl, amazing world of gumball (not the “gross” episodes), doc mcstuffins, fairly odd parents: the new wish, star vs the forces of evil, steven universe (NOT future), calico critters, dollhouses, clouds, yarn balls, funky sweaters, overalls, winning fights against the neighborhood boys, and running around outside
dislikes :: getting into scuffles with the local kids and losing, being picked on, being told she’s stupid, being told she’s “too young” for something, mean adults, mean people, things with too many “bad” (dark) colors, purposefully confusing phrases or sentences, not understanding something due to her age (this especially comes into play when she tries to learn knitting to make her own sweaters)
front triggers :: unexpected occurrences (positive ones), randomly finding something super cool or strange in a weird location, the toy aisle, anything with a lot of colors, drawing and coloring things in, seeing a random cat or frog, when people in front or externally feel sad (she wants to help!!)
signoff :: 🧶, ☁️, 🌼, or 🐈

for the identity ask meme - 2, 12, and 19! or whichever of those you want to answer :) love your blog btw
2. Have you ever found a writer who thinks just like you? if so, who?
Audre Lorde and Andrew Hussie. Insane combination I know lol. Idk about who Hussie is as like a person much on purpose but the way he wrote his fiction prose in HS just really hit me for some reason. Subject matter and art style is crazy af but there really is literary gold hidden in there. I started using second person POV in my work because of him
12. Dog person or cat person?
Cats! These are my babies Karkat (5) and Molly (13). Sadly Molly doesn't live with me at the moment but Karkat also misses her so he makes up for her being gone with extra cuddles for me
Tumblr media
19. Which Harry Potter house would you be in? or are you a muggle?
Haven't finished reading them, only read books 1 and 3 so far, 3 was just an assignment for high school forever ago and while I enjoyed it I was still paranoid by my fundamentalist family telling us that HP was Satanism lol. They might've let me read it at that point but I felt so behind culturally that I just didn't bother idk. Anyway based on what I know from absorbing all the memes and the rest of the story on this site I'm probably a Slytherin but who knows. The HP World at Universal Studios Hollywood was cool af

𝐆𝐄𝐓 𝐓𝐎 𝐊𝐍𝐎𝐖 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐌𝐔𝐍
———  BASICS! ♡
(PEN)NAME:  Wolf
PRONOUNS: she/her
ZODIAC SIGN: Libra
TAKEN OR SINGLE:  single
———  THREE  FACTS! ♡
1 -   I have a cat, named Aloy. I love cats and will never not have one in my life.
2 - I have a degree in Anthropology and Geology. Its why you see a lot of headcanons involving cultural aspects of my characters. I love to dig not just into the character, but their lifestyles and cultures as well. ITs very influential in how a person is.
3 -   I'm obsessed over Horizon Zero Dawn/Horizon Forbidden West. You will never not see me screaming about it and my love for Aloy and all the other brilliantly crafted characters in that world.
———  EXPERIENCE! ♡
PLATFORMS USED: I started writing about 24 years ago, back on a forum called Avidgamers. You could build your own server/forum, have your own roleplay world. It was pretty cool. Then it evolved into other forums, including Avidgamers 2.0, into acornrack then into Spleafnet. You won't find any information about these sites, I'm not even sure if they are trying to recrate it anymore, but yeah. If you know, you know. I did some things on invisionfree and jcink and all, but after awhile I got tired of the strict rules of these forums and the characters I wanted to write were usually taken. Now I use Discord and Tumblr. though I'm finding myself far more partial to discord than tumblr nowadays.
PLOTTING / WINGING IT / MEMES: I.... am not good with winging it. At all. Much of the time I will stare at these things and have to drop it. I LOVE plotting though! Like let us talk, talk about how our characters will interact and involve. I want a foundation and excitement to really give me a reason to write. winging it jut kind of feels like I'm giving a scrape of food and going 'here, try it' but no idea why I should. I also LOVE memes especially after plotting.
———  MUSE  PREFERENCE! ♡
GENDER: I prefer to write only female characters. I've written a few men here and there, but I don't really attach to them as well as I do my ladies.
MULTI OR SINGLE: I am a multi-muse, but I don't care about anyone else. you a multi, awesome! you a single blog, I got ya. I'll write with both <3
LEAST FAVOURITE FACECLAIM(S): I really don't care.
———  FLUFF / ANGST / SMUT! ♡    
FLUFF: Oh I love fluff. I love my girls getting some domestic time and having some warm talks and comforts. Its very cute!
ANGST: Now this, this is where I shine! I am sorry for anyone who writes with this blog, because I love putting my muses in danger. I love having them have to save someone and scared about if they live or die, I love putting them into dangerous situations and begging to keep walking so they don't pass out. I love putting them into conflicts with other characters where they have to team up to survive, trying to keep going on even when they are so spent. I don't like angst that is confrontations between person vs. person (I don't do fights or arguing. I don't like conflicts like that. But everything else omg, let me live in my angst!
SMUT: I like smut! I think its a great thing to explore within a character relationship. However, I will not do smut with someone that I haven't plotted with or talk to on a regular basis. I think the only smut I have going on is with a couple of people who I talk to almost every day XD I love writing it, but I want to make sure I am comfortable with the person I write it with.
