should I indulge and dive in the crit scene ( I am the least critical person ever )

[pixiecaps]

recapping a bit of what haru said on stream

haru on her stream spoke about how shes had a really awful past five years and all her experiences just from this past year has been incredible. she gave a massive thank you to everyone and that she has no regrets.

“i never imagined i’d be where i am right now and i mean it with all my heart thank you so much. i had a very good time and i hope to have made you guys happy.”

she mentioned that since she was young shes always wanted to make content that makes people happy because she felt the world was missing a lot of love so shes happy to have given the world a piece of her heart. she mentioned how shes met so many incredible people who motivated her to see the good parts of life. to have found even this little bit of sunshine has left her so grateful. she says thank you for all the kindness, all the moments, all the memories, all the words, everything. shes very happy and mentioned this has been a very special experience for her. she reminded her chat that theres always another day and to enjoy life to the maximum, to live, to love, to talk, to hug each other, to be happy always, and that all the beautiful happiness we’ve given her will be returned back to us. she continues to express her gratitude. she mentioned this is one of the most beautiful communities shes ever had the pleasure of meeting in the entire world. she goes on to include the spanish, portuguese, french, english, german, and korean community in that statement.

“there is love in all types of languages and that love needs to be shared.“

she said her words will never be enough to express all her gratitude. she gave a reminder to always keep being kind. her voice falters a couple times from all the emotions. she mentioned shes cried enough and didn’t want to keep crying since she had something to do tomorrow and she didnt wanna have swollen eyes lmao.

she then shares a more personal moment. paraphrasing here.

“after i lost my dad i swear i felt like my life was falling apart. i never thought i’d be able to recover. after that many things happened and in those things, i wasnt destined to meet two people, this is a story i’ll always remember because i wasnt destined to meet these people. … they tell me hey the actor for this little thing didn’t show up and i say no way seriously? tell them to let me be it, tell them please because i want to be with you guys (harus two friends who were apart of the project). and i didnt think they’d agree… and they said yes. and i met two very important people and honestly (starts crying) thank you so much. thank you so much nussa. thanks to you i was able to meet them. i never imagined this would happen i promise you. thank you nussa. it means a lot to me that you decided to put me (into the leo spot). the only major thing in my life, i started being so happy, i started enjoying all the moments in my life as if it were the last, thanks to all this i’m here. and could meet you all. such a beautiful community.” she goes on to keep thanking nussa while crying and saying it was written in the stars. she goes on to say that shes gonna tell this as a story some day to her family, who doesnt know what she does or that she streams, and she’ll tell them about all of this with so much care and love. shes very thankful to have learned so much english and more about so many different cultures. she again reiterates shes very happy.

she also teases that she wants to go to brazil!!!! which… might be soon… and that theres little things being planned so hopefully if all goes well…👀 (an egg admin meetup would go so hard)

NOW GO SUPPORT HER ON TWITCH @ HarumiVT

!!nagi swears that kissing you before practice or a match gives him good luck!!<3<33

✩ ˛˚ . NAGI SEISHIRO ; — it seems the teams way to get nagi motivated has its drawbacks.

warnings: sfw! no warnings just nagi being the sweetest :3 note: hi nonnie!!! i decided to just write this lil thing cause i thought it was super cute so i hope u like it sob!!!

for the most part, it was beneficial when the team decided to start inviting you to their morning practice — as a means to motivate nagi, noticing that the usual sleepy, slacker of a striker seemed to have a little more motivation whenever he’d look over and see you in the stands.

but now.. actually getting him to come onto the pitch to play was a whole other problem entirely.

“hey, nagi! get on the field, jeez.. we’re still a goal behind, ultra genius.” you hear reo call from behind you, huffing when your boyfriend infront of you doesnt even seem to give him a second thought as he waves him off from over his shoulder. you think it’s amusing though, the pleading look his bestfriend gives you like he’s begging you to help him out.

nagi on the other hand, is currently leaning over the barrier at the stands — shooting you a starry-eyed look from under his messy bangs. his gloved hands fidget with the hem of your t-shirt and you feel them twitch tighter around the fabric every few moments, like an adorable little attempt to pull you closer as he sends you a pout.

“this is a pain, ‘ts in the way.” your boyfriend breathes as his longer limbs shift and fidget over the metal fence against him he’s referring to — surprisingly enough managing to support his weight as he leans against it, probably finding standing too bothersome given how long they’ve been practicing already.

but you give nagi an inch as you take a step closer, just enough to let his hands graze along your hips as he lets his head lean forward and rest on your chest. “you’re needed on the field, sei.” you try to reason as you push his snowy bangs away from his gaze, letting you take in the pretty, drowsy expression on his face when he blinks slowly up at you.

“eh, don’t wanna. wanna stay here.” another slow drawl and his fingers are squeezing at your skin, feeling him nuzzle deeper into your chest as he leans even further into you — making the barrier squeak slightly under his weight. you’re not sure it’s quite built to balance lazy 190cm strikers.

“but i wanna see you score more goals. we can get lemon tea before we go home.” it’s tempting, especially when you say it in that pretty little voice you know he loves. so you feel nagi’s head twist against you before he’s sending you a cute little look, cheek smooshed against you as he huffs.

“i’m sleepy though, i wanna have a bath and play video games with you instead. ‘ts no fair.”

“i’ll give you a kiss for every goal you score.” it’s quick, your reply — it doesn’t give him a moment to consider it because you know it’s a bargain he can’t pass up. only a few simple things could get nagi seishiro motivated and your kisses were right up there next to video games and well— that’s it.

“wan’ them now. need ‘em for a power up.” it’s hard to say no to him when he’s giving you that look, it’s sleepy and doe-eyed and there’s a soft glow that swims in the deep colour of his eyes that makes you smile before you’re scratching your hand through his hair. it makes your boyfriend shudder and he pulls you closer before you’re reminded of the time limit when reo sends you a wave followed by a grumpier sort of look.

“three goals for three kisses.” your words are rushed but they make nagi stand to full height just as quickly despite the way his arms remain around you — head leaning into the press of your palm when it cups his cheek.

“yay.” it’s soft, spoken under his breath when you push his hair from his features to peck him once on the lips, followed by another before he’s meeting you quickly for the last — urging it to be a little deeper than the other two as he pulls you into him. you hear him hum and you decide to give him a little extra motivation when you swipe your tongue between his lips, hearing a sweet whimper sound from him before he’s parting them for more — but just as quickly as it deepens, you pull away to grin.

“hey, why’d you pull away. wasn’t done yet.” nagi’s words are whinier now but there’s a soft flush on the tips of his ears and you think it’s cute just how easy it was to get him drowsy on kisses.

“it was just for good luck. three goals, sei. then you’ll get more!” you let your fingers scratch through his messy hair again as he groans, followed by a quick thumbs up to reo from over his shoulder before you’re pushing him lightly. he sways before he turns and you laugh at the next pout he sends you as his arms fall to sway by his side — his eyes still on you even as he makes his way back towards the team, although there’s something darker in his gaze now.

“eh, i guess. but it’s so bothersome, three goals is too easy.”

[rouge-the-bat]

i really do wonder what ppl who tout the "non-men loving non-men" definition of lesbian think about multigender people. do they EVER consider us? even a tiny bit? bc it certainly doesnt feel like it. it feels like any one of these situations:

they already dont think being multigender is a thing, and say shit like "you can only be a man, a woman, or nonbinary, not all of the above."

they quite literally dont think about how multigender people would work in relation to sexuality. they may claim to support us, but they dont pay attention to or care about the fact our gender identity ISNT just an isolated thing that has no affect or connection to anything else about us.

they look at my gender (genderfluid between woman, man, and many forms of nonbinary, more oftentimes a mix), and say oh well youre PARTIALLY a man in some way so that means you cant be a lesbian! so, basically my man-ness just "taints" me and negates the fact that im also a woman and nonbinary? what about the days where my genderfluidity contains no bit of man at all? can i only be a lesbian SOMETIMES?

they yell about non-men all they want, but see my gender and go, "oh not YOU though :) i mean people who are ONLY a man!" and not realize how that is 1. them not saying at all what they mean in their definition if still SOME men are okay and 2. extremely comes across as misgendering and that they dont see me as Actually a man if im not mono-gendered, regardless of their intention. if you are going to categorize people as "men or non-men" and try to fit me in only one or the other, you are misgendering me no matter what. non-men is not the same thing as non-mono-gendered-men.

and all of this also makes me wonder: what would these people think if they saw me in person, holding hands with my girlfriend?

for context: transmeds would 100% consider me a faker not only bc im genderfluid, use any pronouns (esp neos), and am without dysphoria (for gender anyways), but because theyd think im just cis. im afab with no hormone changes or surgery, nor do i want any (my ideal genitals being a dick or barbie-doll-smooth aside, since i dont care enough to do surgery about it, and any of my other gender ideals would require shapeshifting), i like my big boobs, AND im femme. my fat even adds to my curves. most people would probably read me as only a girl and not think twice about it, esp if im dressing up as femme as i like being at the time.

so, if these people shouting "non-men loving non-men" at those like me all the time ended up seeing me irl, what would they think? would they see im extremely femme and read as a girl while holding hands with my girlfriend (who isnt femme but still is easily read as a girl) and think oh yeah, thats a lesbian right there? because a huge part of me says that they absolutely would have no issue with it

who knows if anyone who swears up and down by the "non-men loving non-men" definition will actually read this, but i REALLY wish more people would actually hear out multigender folks and see how definitions like this are incompatible with us. think about how our identity doesnt exist in a vacuum. realize that plenty of us ARE lesbians no matter what anyone else says, and we do not abide to your """inclusive""" definition that actually doesnt consider our existence at all.

or at least realize identity labels dont have a one-size-fits-all definition in the vastness of queer experiences, that people are going to have definitions for things that are different from yours, and you dont hold the One True Right Definition. realize that definitions are not rules that are placed upon words, theyre explanations for how these words are being used across the world, through time, and vary from person, place, and time. definitions are fluid, not static, and many words have multiple definitions.

[am-i-the-asshole-official]

WIBTA for telling the blunt truth to my roommate, that shes immature, irresponsible, and rude?

[-.-] < so I can recognize

so I (20) have three roommates, A(20), B(21 or 22), and C(20). We all attend the same college. I have lived with A for 2 years, but we only started living with B and C in fall 2023. so far there have been some issues, and most of them revolve around interacting with C. C has a cat, and they keep the litterbox in their room of our apartment, so they always have their door open. This itself isnt really a problem, but I feel like its eroding the distinction between common space and their personal space for them. Often when there is another conversation happening at the table or on the couch, C will come out of their room, sit on the couch, and watch loud videos on their phone without headphones. Then, they will hear a small part of our conversation, react in TOTAL shock and awe, demand we recap the last 5-10 minutes of conversation to catch them up, then go right back to their video. On another occasion, I was talking with either A or B as well as C, when C said they were overstimulated and needed some quiet time (no problem with that, it happens) so they were going to put in their headphones and. stay in the living room on the couch. instead of going to their room.

They also will completely derail conversations into complete dead ends and traumadumping. I was driving, C was in the passenger seat, and B and our friend G(18 or 19 iirc) were in the back. we were chatting about our parents being silly and making harmless fun of us at various points, and C multiple times said "we're not talking about times my parents took away phones bc Trauma!" like. If you dont want to talk about it DONT BRING IT UP. C could have chimed in w a time their friend did something like that and it would be fine! but instead they latched onto the parent part. They do this fairly often, and it makes it really hard to have a conversation where we casually mention our childhoods, bc its always a minefield w C, as they will make a point to bring up that they lacked the circumstances for whatever experience we are talking about, either due to bad relationships w parents or due to growing up poor.

On top of all this, they also are not financially in a good place. They routinely dont have money for food and end up eating mostly communal stuff. Sometimes when they are low on money I will end up buying something communal just so they will stop carrying on. IMO if they are in that sort of financial situation they shouldnt have gotten a cat, bc I honestly dont think they can afford it. tbh I feel like they pretty much live on the cheese and tortillas I buy, and i'm starting to feel the financial stress of it.

They are constantly making every interaction about themselves in ways that make it really hard, even when they arent even part of the conversation.

Repeatedly i've wanted to tell them that they dont have to be involved in everything, and that they dont have to always be talking or generating noise. That when other people are talking, they need to either contribute constructively to the conversation, wait their turn, or at the very least stop and apologize when they interrupt someone instead of talking right over them for minutes at a time. And that its not our responsibility to help them when they are low on money, that maybe they shouldnt have gotten a cat if they werent able to financially support it, and also that it shouldnt be our (me, A and B)'s job to walk on egg shells bc they have emotional outbursts over incredibly minor things (they do take mood stabilizers and have a disorder that effects their mood, but that doesnt mean its ok that they will sometimes seem really angry and aggressive out of absolutely nowhere, yelling swears with no provocation).

What are these acronyms?

[ghoodles]

A bunch of noir headcanons because im normal i promise

- Either really sensory avoidant or seeking, it depends on the day

- Either way he's still pretty affectionate, on the avoidant days its usually just words of affirmation but otherwise he's the type of person to like pat someone on the back or something (there's actual movie scenes in itsv that supports this)

- The strongest sense of justice you'll see. He sees an injustice and soon enough he's interfering

- He will find a way to get information out of you if you have it, he used to work for the press, and is a private eye, and he was damn good at BOTH

- The color of his webs depends on how long its been since his last revival. Darker usually means its been less time, and it usually lasts for like a month or two before it becomes white again

- Intrusive thoughts about violence that he's just slowly become desensitized to

- Used to be all bark no bite before he got his powers, would get his ass kicked a LOT, but now, i mean, he still gets his ass kicked sometimes, but he's more capable of holding his own

- He has fangs and claws, because, come on, he's literally been revived like multiple times by the spider-god, she's had to replace something

- Speaking on that, a lot of his blood is significantly darker than his natural color, because of the god having to replace it

- Actually figured out how to use futuristic technology pretty quickly

- In shattered dimensions, he definitely thought Madame Web's voice was the spider-god talking to him before he was like "hold on she doesnt sound like that, who the fuck are you?"

- Swears like a sailor, but doesnt like younger people doing it

- Probably screamed in agony at seeing all the colors for the first time, especially in brooklyn during the night, thats gotta cause so much eye strain, especially in a black and white world

- Actually could see color in his world, but they were pretty dull colors, almost monochrome, but not

- Most people cant see the difference though

- Has met Miguel before (shattered dimensions) and was absolutely just in shock by the change

- A god at cooking, shit at baking, he tried to make cookies and almost burnt down the house

- Sometimes just feels like a puppet for the spider-gods entertainment

- Religious trauma is strong with this man, i can tell

- Derealization episodes where it feels like he's just not there anymore

- Back to his blood being darker the more he loses it, he has a full on breakdown over it once he realizes it, because he percieves it as a sort of indicator that he isnt human anymore

- The most unintentionally father figure acting person you'll ever see, he doesnt realize how many people see him as a dad, and if he does he's just extremely confused

- Had his gun with him the entire time in ITSV, just didnt want to accidentally scare someone with it

- Has a pretty good relationship with the other spiders in Shattered dimensions, but ends up getting a little iffy about Miguel once he brings up the canon events

- He almost fought him after Miguel brought up his uncle Benjamin and all his other canon events (ive only read like two issues of the comics im SORRY)

- The most vibrant color he saw in his world was the color of his spider-sense; a red

- For this reason, he can point out red really quickly

- Increased senses, to the point where it can become a hindrance

- Constantly on alert, checks so many things to make sure that he's not being followed

- Despite being naturally weaker than all the spiders, he can punch clean through walls

- He'd be bruised and a bit scraped by it but otherwise he's perfectly fine

[pey-up]

Tell me about your OCs!!!

YIPPEEEEEEEEE

youre all going to regret this.

This is gonna be long so RANT UNDER CUT-

Okokok so i have multiple stories but ill spare yall and just give you the main one (or ig the most fleshed out one?)

It follows a teen girl Elora, who's a silly gal and by silly i mean autistic and would bite someone if pressed. She reallyyy likes big words, like you know those hyperspesfic words that describe super specific moments or feelings? She loves those. Being super specific is her Jam. Anyways, she's friends with two kids Edgar (has bit someone and would bite again) and Paige (would never bite someone. Allows affectionate biting.)

Theyre not vampires theyre just weird/aff

Elora's mom is named Bellaire, she's a single mom who works one job, loves her kid and never stops, we love Belle. Where is eloras dad you may be asking!? Doesnt exist. Pokemon style. (I have never played pokemon but ive seen enough delia x jesse art to know). I kinda leave the second parent up for interpretation because its fun to see what ppl come up with :3 (kinda like mrs. Afton? Literally built out of headcanons and dreams) Bellaire is a health IT worker and she loves it! It's why she moved to Pennsylvania in the first place! She kinda moved around a bit as a kid from france to italy to north carolina so good for her for staying put :3

Uh- okay so one thing about my stories is i do not care if its realistic for a Korean woman in 1987 to be working IT. The world in my stories is nicer. Doesnt mean bad stuff doesnt exist! It just means im going to pretend it can happen because she deserves for it to happen >:[

Belle and Elora are real close since theyre kinda the only family each other have, El has a tricky time expressing emotions and affection, whereas Belle is reallt outwordly affectionate so some miscommunication happens there :( boy itd be a shame if Someone were to not make it to the end of the story and theyd be unable to communicate properly (<- its not written yet.. i will be killing at least someone off though...)

Edgar and El have that "never met one of my parents" swag, Edgar in the form of my dad sucks (im not projecting youre projecting. What.) And his momma died when he was real young. His mom and Bellaire were reallll... close.

They were gay.

But yknow, she died so Ed's dad took over and cut belle out of edgars life, so poor baby ed has zero support systemUntil he meets elora on a rainy day when hes much older, about 12 or 13 id say?

Paige is significantly less traumatized, but she has the "i need to be suuper happy and a support system for everyone else because they obviously have it worse than i do" disorder :(

THERE IS A PLOT TO THIS I SWEAR!!! SORRY ITS KINDA WORD VOMIT RN-

Its more put together when i write it i swear (two chapters r in my pinned post, ill write more when school starts and i get settled in my creative writing class again :3 gimmie a week or so hehe)

Heres some doodles i did of them! The placeholder title is currently Aberrant so its tagged under that (and then specific characters of their names, Elora Carpenter, Paige Madden, Edgar, etc)

Thanks very very much for the ask!!!!!

read part 1 here

Read part 3 here

Summary: The gang is slowly starting to puzzle together the pieces of the crazy night they had together but they still cant find an answer to the most important question... where's Bob??!!

A/N: part 2!! Thanks for the love on part 1 guys :)) next part is gonna be the last part where the main question will finally be answered! Enjoy xx feedback always appreciated

Trigger warnings for alcohol, some swear words, alluding to smut, smoking, nudity // English is not my first language so I apologise for any mistakes

Slightly wincing, you placed your third empty shotglass down and turned around to Jake who handed you another one "Oh god" you quickly downed it as you closed your eyes, shaking your head as you felt the liquor burn down your throat "I love tequila" you breathed out, voice strained as Jake slammed his shot glass down on the bar "I love you" he slurred, eyes slowly opening and closing. You pouted placing a hand on your chest, affected by drunk Hangman's words "I love you too" "No I love you Cheetah" his finger pointed to you as you copied his movements, raising your finger to him as you used your other hand to support yourself "No but like Hangman, I love you" he looked at you for a second, eyes slightly crossed as he suddenly moved forward. You let out a loud yelp as you were thrown over Jake's shoulder. He dragged you back to the dancefloor to the rest of the squad "Rooster, I love your girlfriend man" placing you back on your feet in front of him you couldnt help but stumble back, hitting someone in the chest with your back in the process. You turned around and let out a loud gasp as you saw Bob standing behind you "Bob" your hand bawled up in a fist around the fabric of his shirt as you pulled him closer "I love you" you said and he smiled, swaying a little from left to right "I love you too, I love all of you" he yelled out the last part and you cheered, throwing your arms around your boyfriend and Bob "Group hug!" Phoenix yelled out and soon you were all laughing like crazy as the group made one big pile, everyone holding onto someone... best night of our lives

“I’m just saying, Phoenix and Cheetah making out after that group hug… hottest thing I’ve ever seen in my entire life” for that comment alone Rooster threw his empty water bottle at Jake’s head “Okay guys focus, what happened after we left the next club”

“I bet you a box of chicken nuggets right now you cant win in a fight against me” you stopped dead in your tracks, raising your eyebrows at Coyote “Oh yeah?” you puffed out your chest a little “You’re on mister” Rooster lost his balance for a second as he stepped of the sidewalk, 3 bags of McDonalds in his left arm and carrying Phoenix on his back while supporting her with his right “I got everything guys, I g- OW DAMN” Coyote’s body was slammed into the ground as soon as you placed your arm around his shoulder, another around his waist and tackled him to the floor as you put your feet infront of his legs “Go baby!” Rooster yelled, stuffing his mouth with fries. As Coyote went down, he managed to pull you down with him making you scrape your knees on the asphalt in the process. You rolled on your back and let out a painful huff before looking at Coyote, who was supporting a drunk smile “Get me my freaking chicken nuggets you little bitch”

You looked at the 3 empty bags of Mcdonalds that were spread around the room and you pointed at them “We brought the Mcdonalds here, so there cant be too much time between that and us booking the hotel” You said and Phoenix nodded “Exactly, but was Bob with us at that time?” She asked and you shrugged, rubbing the side of your head “For all we know, he’s dead somewhere!” “Oh dont be so dramatic” Jake said and if Phoenix could shoot lasers out of her eyes, he truly would be dead “Hangman, he doesnt have his phone which means no one can reach him and he cant reach us… he doesnt have his glasses and I dont know if you’ve noticed… but without them he’s FUCKING LEGALLY BLIND” Coyote held Bob’s broken glasses in front of his eyes and winced “Yeah that bitch cant see shit without them… how in the hell did he pass the military exam?!”

It was now nearing 4am, still drunk out of your minds. Phoenix was leaning up against the window of the nightshop, holding on for dear life as the world slowly started spinning for her. Coyote was sat on the ground, head in his hands. A door opening up next to her shook them awake again as the little bell above said door let out a rinkle “Okay, I got everything I think” Rooster said and reached into the plastic bag “I feel 20 again” Phoenix chuckled as she opened up the packet of Camel cigarettes, popping one into her mouth and handing one over to you “Thanks babe” you reached into your totebag to find your lighter and lit the cigarette, handing it to Phoenix who offered a cigarette to Jake. He shook his head and held up the vape Rooster gave him “A vape? Really?” You laughed and he took a drag, blowing out the smoke in your face “Strawberry kiwi baby” Coyote opened the bottle of whiskey and took a sip “Okay, where to next?” He asked and you all looked at each other “The beach!”

You scanned around the room, checking your bag one last time to see if you really didnt forget anything in your hotelroom before closing the door behind you “You good babe?” you looked at your boyfriend who looked quite disheveled with his hair a mess and you reached up to fix it a little. He placed his hand on your back and rubbed it lightly “I’m sorry” he said and you tilted your head a little “What are you sorry for?” he shrugged his shoulders “You didnt wanna come out last night but you went for me and now we cant find Bob… And if I just respected your wishes of staying at home you wouldnt be stuck in this stupid situation with us” you smiled and cupped his chin “Dont ever apologize to me for something like that again okay. I could have went home after the Hard Deck but I stayed because I was having an amazing time with you guys.” You kissed his lips gently and he nodded “Okay… lets go find Bob” you walked towards the elevator where the rest of the squad was waiting for you guys and let out a small laugh, you all looked really pathetic right now. Jake still wearing your sunglasses, Phoenix had Roosters hoodie on with the hood over her head and eyes so small you were beginning to question if she could even see, Coyote was using his arms as support against the wall as he dry heaved a little with a bag ready in his hand in case it was needed and you still wearing Roosters boxers since your pants were literally nowhere to be found.

“I dont like to say this, but do you guys think we’re too old for this shit?” Jake asked as the elevator doors opened, making you all step inside of it. Rooster pressed the floor button and sighed “I’ve had some big hangovers in my life before, but this one triumphs every single one of them” he answered. The elevator came to a stop as you reached the lobby of the hotel “Who even paid for that room anyway?” You asked “Oh god, did we even pay?” You whisper yelled and before anyone could answer a woman at the front desk greeted you “Ah Captain Mitchell, hope you had a good stay at the hotel! You can drop of the key here and once again, big thanks for the generous donation. I didnt know the military was that free with their money but thanks anyway” confusion riddled through your body as the woman stared at Rooster, who blinked mindlessly before deciding to play along “oh- Oh! No problem ma’am. Do you by chance have a receipt from the donation? We always keep them” she nodded and typed away on her computer before walking to the printer, grabbing the piece of paper and handing it over to Rooster “I scanned it in yesterday, but here’s a copy! Once again, I hoped you guys enjoyed your stay and we hope to see you soon. Thank you all for your service to this country” you quickly grabbed the piece of paper and your eyes moved to the bottom of the document, Jake leaned over your shoulder to read it with you and you two looked at each other in utter shock before turning to Rooster “Bradley Bradshaw… you are in so much trouble” you laughed, since it seemingly was the only thing you could do right now. You handed the piece of paper to Coyote and he and Phoenix read it to before they turned their head to Rooster so fast “You put Mav’s credit card information up as payment?” Rooster swallowed hard “I’m so dead” Phoenix turned back to the lady at the front desk “Excuse me, when we arrived here last night.. was it just us checking in?” She looked at the five of you and nodded “Yes, well you looked a little different since you had your regular glasses on but I’m 100% sure it was just you guys” all the heads turned to Jake “Glasses?” He asked, slightly dipping the sunglasses so that they were balancing on the tip of his nose “Yes and if I may… I know serial killer glasses are all the hype right now but I think you look better without them” she winked at him and went back to typing on the computer “Excuse me, hi-sorry” Jake said and the woman looked up again, this time slightly annoyed “Did I happen to say what my name was?” she scanned the group, hand on her waist as she sighed “You said your name was Bob”

As you made your way out of the hotel you guys quickly realized the only way to get back home was to walk alongside the beach and somewhere along the way you guys decided to walk towards te water for a second. “Okay so we know Bob wasnt with us went we booked the hotel room but then where did we lose him?” Walking in silence, you let the sun radiate on your body and you slowly started to feel yourself truly come back alive again “Uh Cheetah?” Coyote asked and you looked up at the boy, taking a sip from your water bottle “Arent those your pants?” he picked up a pair of black trousers that were covered in sand and showed them to you “What? Let me see” you whisked them out of his hands “They are? How did they get here” Jake snapped his fingers, pointing to you “We went skinny dipping!”

You were leaning against Roosters chest and in between his legs as he supported his weight on his arms, keeping him up. Sitting in a tiny circle, Phoenix had her head in Jake’s lap and Coyote was set next to them with his legs crossed “I think this is one of the best nights I’ve ever had… the squad missed out on this one I’ll tell you that” Rooster said and the group agreed “We’re so far away from home tho… how will we get home?” Phoenix yawned and Jake took another sip of the bottle of whiskey the group was sharing “There’s a hotel right there, maybe if we’re lucky we can still get a room” Jake said, you noticed the sky was slowly coming back alive again and scanned the waves crashing the shore when suddenly an idea came to mind “Have you guys ever gone skinny dipping?” You asked with raised eyebrows, the group looked at each other.. tension building up and Coyote was the first one up, running to the water. You quickly jumped up, dragging Rooster up with you as Phoenix and Jake started running to the water as well. Your laughs echoed loudly in the air as you began removing your clothes. You saw Coyote’s bare ass jump into the ocean, his clothes ditched a little too close to the water. Jake pulled of his shirt, threw it away and started jumping out of his pants. Phoenix’s bra flew in the air and yours followed. Soon you were all naked in the water, swimming around and splashing each other with ocean water. A pare of hands found its way around your waist and you turned around facing Rooster. You quickly wrapped your arms around his neck and legs around his waist as he swam you guys out a little further into the ocean, away from the 3 other aviators “You know, we can fuck like literally right now and nobody will know” he said and you just leaned in, kissing him hard. He took this as a sign to position himself better against you and a moan slipped out of your mouth as he slowly but surely slipped inside of you. A slight smile crept against your face as you held him close, the rest of the squad blissfully unaware of what was happening a little further into the ocean

“How do we explain to the rest of the group that we lost Bob” after walking a good hour, you saw the hard deck closing in on you in the distance “How do I explain I booked a hotel room under Mav’s name?!” Rooster fired back “One problem at a time buddy” Jake patted Roosters back, jogging up ahead to catch up with Coyote who was already on the steps up to the entrance of the cafe. The sun was now really starting to annoy you and all you wanted was atleast 2 liters of water, a cold shower and 5 days of sleep. Out of breath, you followed the rest of the squad up the stairs and braced yourself as you entered the same bar it all started last night. Upon entering, heads turned in your direction “What the hell guys?! I was this close to sending a search party for you guys” Payback yelled and Coyote moved towards him, putting a finger to Payback’s mouth and sushing him “We are not yelling today” he then moved to the bar where Penny was observing the 5 dead looking aviators “Water… ice cold dear Penny” Coyote whimpered, his voice barely above a whisper as he placed his head on top of the bar and covered it with his arms “Rooster!” A firm voice sounded from behind them and they turned around, facing a clearly pissed off Maverick “Mav look we can explain” You said and Mav shot a deadly glance to you “I want an explanation… now!” He said and you all looked at each other, no one daring to speak up before eventually you did “Mav, we’re so sorry” the bathroom door opened, but you paid no mind to it as you struggled to find the right words. Phoenix on the other hand let herself get distracted and turned to the person entering the bar from the bathroom “I’m so sorry Mav… but we lost-“

“BOB?!”

sits next to you :) the thing about kevjeanee housekeeping/accounting is that while kevin is not dyslexic like jeanee i fear that he is not good at math either..... i think he's probably Better at it than jean and renee but he's not of much help i don't think........ last year i overpaid my credit card at least four times because im bad at math so i think kevin would be like that. they trust him and he's basically giving their money for free to the bank. jean (grew up poor in my mind) would be furious. but if they put their three thinking heads together they can surely come up with something!

i like chronic migraines for jean i think he's very bruised bird shot from the sky etc no matter what nothing really works for him........ and he can do something dramatic like drop to the floor like an unwound doll and put his head on kevins or renees lap..... and its ok because puppies do these things....!! in a way i think the most fun of kevjeanee is the potential for hovering + doting for jean it presents because its like two of his biggest supporters. (kicks feet) i also think jean and renee are also two people i can see kevin going easier on/excusing for so its cute to me to think about... renee spacing out in practice and kevin being like well she's trying very hard. or jeremy calling in and saying jean beat up another striker and kevins like he's working on it :) you know? you do know user luvbug724 you have to

also re: kevrenee mass together ITS CUTE... i think sometimes the fandom at large um i guess doesnt really think much about renee's relationship to religion but i feel like another one of the foxes (and especially kevin maybe... in my heart) being there with her would make her very happy. i hope when its ash wednesday she approaches him in practice and puts ash on his gay little forehead :) i hope all the old ladies think they're dating or getting married soon and have no idea of the jezabel in california waiting for them (jean)

kevin fucking up their taxes. HILARIOUS. kevin the loves of your life just want their tax returns please. what the fuck do you mean they owe a million dollars can you do the math again please. this is what jeanee get for trusting a history major with their money.

KEVRENEE DOTING ON JEAN YES YES YES. jean i think will be the type of athlete who is constantly at the trainer bc. you know. the mafia may kill him if he can't play exy ugh i hate when that happens but he has to stay in good shape even though he's dealing with So many longterm injuries. when kevin and jean are pro the moment jean leaves a game renee is already in the med room to hear what the doctor has to say and kevin's there as soon as the game is over.

kevin going easier on jean and renee........ I KNOW I SWEAR I DO. its very cute. how can you blame him? renee looks very cute when she's distracted i'm sure.

kevin and renee walking in late to practice with ashes.... mein gott......................................

the idea of ppl seeing kevrenee and not knowing theres a second european man in the picture is so funny. "renee, darling, when are you and your man going to get hitched?" "oh, i'm already married :)" she's the talk of the next church potluck. martha SWEARS she saw her with a different man with a face tattoo last christmas, but agnes says there's no way renee would cheat on her husband with a face tattoo with ANOTHER man with a face tattoo. kevin must have just gotten a haircut or something. they agree to never talk about it again.

Hello everyone, I wanted to talk about the Israel-Hamas conflict and the effect on it in social media.

Before I continue, I just wanted to say that I dont support what Israel is doing to Palestine. But that doesnt mean that I support Hamas. I dont support Hamas because they are also fucked up.

TW: Swearing with no censorship because im not trying to sugarcoat this situation.

So first I wanted to talk about how the people use the conflict for fucking clout. This isn't an okay thing to do as actual people and families are being separated from each other. Some people think they can use this stuff to get views and likes. Think of the people who is actually suffering out there.

The worst part is that if they are monetized, they can make hundreds of dollars just from a couple of views. Most of the time, they use it on themselves and not give it to fucking charity that actually helps the people in Palestine.

This is all I wanted to say and thank you so much for reading.

Info about Fredrick! (Hazbin hotel oc aka HH)

 Frederick is basicy luficer  righthand man, he is a fallen guardian angel who fallen around the same time as luficer for eh mainly the same reasons, he wanted to create also was a supporter of luficer bringing freewill (Aka in the angel eyes  evil) to the world hence him going down with luficer.

Fredrick  isnt a deadly sin due to him not wanting to (If he did it will ruin his look of him being the purest being in hell) . frederick is a big Denialist  when it comes to the fact he was kicked out of heaven because of him supporting luficer (Hence him just saying random stuff like “Heaven is just a very strict place dear.” or just him avoiding any topics that makes him speak about the reasons he was kicked out heaven).

He acts the part of a true guardian angel even in hell though every now and then you see his persona of a holy being break making him swear and insult with no bounds to anyone who ticked him off and he even might get physical with said person. Frederick helps luficer with anything if he needs to. basically pals in some way due to the fact he saw hell rise with luficer.

Frederick is more of a background person rather than being the main person. He also had a dislike for other angels but will keep things friendly most of the time and doesnt really have issues with adam (Have a feeling that will change very soon) he only heard about him from luficer and the times he.. Well basically taked adams lovers.

though frederick doesnt and never will understand why romance or physical love is needed (He just isnt a very lovely dovely person though doesnt mean he does not have crushes every now and then.)

Looks! (cause i suck at drawing so imagine! Also cause im eh.. lazy)

Frederick has a Sleeper physuque who has darker grey color skin,Brown hair which can be found usually in a short messy style,eyes with blackish sclera and Green pupils,6’5 tall,brown eyebrows,light grey eyelids,wears a whitish greyish  pinstripe coat with gold lapels piped with whiteish greyish, Underneath this he wears greysish and white dress-shirt with golden botten down  the chest, and long black dress pants with matching gold cuffs.,black leather combat boots ,Grey large wings which he proudly shows off often

Demonic form! (Likely never to be seen, frederick pretends it never existed for the most part and hardly is used,)

He has natured colored ram horns,his wings in this form is very ragged and messy ,His hands become clawlike the tips of his fingers turns sharp and thin that looks like claws, His overall looks is dim down and faded and not as holy he wants to look!,

Chloe I remember you struggles with the nhs in regard to mental health and I had my own experience today where I went in and was like my anxiety is so bad I can’t do anything etc and they told me my appearance didn’t reflect someone with anxiety so anyway not sure what that means but don’t worry because they gave me a leaflet

god that is so ridiculous but unfortunately it doesn't even surprise me at all! ur "appearance doesn't reflect someone with anxiety" ?? i swear they just pull the most ridiculous bullshit out of thin air. like what does that even mean. next they'll be telling you a bath and a cup of tea will solve a mental breakdown 😞 im really sorry you're having to deal with this, especially after gathering the mental energy and fortitude to reach out for help in the first place. i know it's not an easy thing to do by any stretch of the imagination, and i hope this doesnt discourage you from continuing to try in the future. you should be really proud of yourself. anyway, i just wanted to offer some understanding bc i totally feel you - it's like we don't even have a mental health service at this point. i don't know why they try to convince us that we do. i would encourage you to look into any resources in the leaflet / in your community as sometimes they can be more helpful than what the NHS initially offers you, but yeah, i totally get your frustration man. wishing you peace and better days ahead. hopefully you're able to find some form of support, maybe group therapy or one of those sliding scale price therapists, even if it's not through by what was recommended to you today. sending a huge hug.

Heya this is Neith from another verse. I was prompted to speak with you about (P)NH(C) virus. Which, I suppose, means... literaly everything about it? It started in OsCorp labs, that I was told, but what was it meant to do? What it did/does when not stopped? What was attempted to stop/heal it? What is affected (type of) population and is there a pre-exposure vaccine? If you know how to send files across the borders, that may be a great time to use that skill, any byte of info is nice. I and my benefactors want only good, I so swear.

And in the other news, I have a list of terms to ask about also, because umm. Pax became quite angry when questioned about those, and it seems like she doesnt know anything despite all of them being globe-span things. I quote, “your experiences are not universal”. Which, if true, means fundamental differences I cant reconcile with on the spot. Anyways, the list follows: Admiral(person, "A" capitalised); Aretes(the organisation); Dragonhearts(the organisation); Greatest biologist of Earth; Plural Plagues(or any event matching that name); Hellhole(in context of Washington, and any others); Hydra(the organisation); North Sentinel Island; OsCorp biology division; Top Alley House(the place). I dont demand the full dissertation on each, I just want to realise whats different and how much so. - Neith

Oh. Christ. Ok, you’re.. quite lucky I’m not too swamped with work. I don’t have the time to fulfill everything that you’ve requested from me (I’m… not doing an actual dissertation for a tumblr ask, sorry) but I will try to answer as best as I can regardless. This gets long so I’m putting it under a read more.

So, firstly, I will have to firmly ask that you to please refrain from agitating Pax any further. One of the prominent symptoms of severe Post NH virus Condition (PNHC) comes in the form of increased irritation/aggression along with emotional deregulation and to keep triggering that is to make an individual more hostile and more likely to.. uh.. respond with violence.. 

Though I doubt you’ll experience much of this aside from some harsh words from her, but as her doctor, I have to ask you leave her be for now so she doesn’t either bring herself or others harm. We really don’t need a situation to evolve because of this big misunderstanding. Also if you’re wondering why Ez is able to visit her, it’s because she trusts them deeply and Ez is unable to be notably harmed by Pax. Speaking with Ez does her a lot of good!

Anyway, you can find more specifics on the symptoms here on NH virus and here on the resulting PNHC, but generally speaking, when one gets infected with the Noctis Hectica (NH) Virus, it generally has a massively negative impact on the brain.. In some ways, it functions somewhat similar to a form of rabies, though there are key differences between the two retroviruses. The most notable being the physiological changes brought on by an infection of NH, with one of the biggest indicators being the changes to the eyes. Even in early stages, the eyes are usually one of the first things to be heavily altered, as patients tend to experience severe photophobia/eye pain, a rapid development of choroidal tapetum cellulosum, and loss of eye pigmentation, turning the previous eye color to a silvery-white color.

At the moment, two different vaccines have been developed, by yours truly, pre-exposure and post-exposure vaccines. We’re.. still trying to do drug discovery for the treatment of PNHC but so far, there seems to be no cure for it. This is more something that one has to manage with medication and other treatments such as therapy for years, possibly lifelong in the severe cases. It’s a very debilitating condition and those who are affected often need at least some level of support to manage it.

Most infected tend to be human but other animals (usually mammals but there was a jump to reptiles at a point) that have been reported to either carry or show symptoms of NH virus. Also I’d love to send more detailed documentation to you but.. that’s not my decision to make. Because I work with the Bioterrorism Security Assessment Alliance (BSAA) there are some things I am not allowed to disclose and quite frankly? I don’t really want to entrust this sensitive information to an organization I’ve never even heard of. And neither would my superiors.

Which speaking of… I’m afraid Pax is correct with her repeated statement to you. I don’t really know how else to put this to you but, what may be true to your dimension, is not inherently true to another. To assume that it is… extremely shortsighted at best and kind of arrogant at worst, considering you’ve been told twice (now thrice) that it wasn’t the case and yet you don’t seem to really get it.

I.. I understand it’s not something that’s easy to accept and I understand it’s a big adjustment to learn about the multiverse. But you need to listen to me when I say we literally do not have any these other organizations aside from OsCorp, which was a biotechnology company until very recently when they developed the NH virus and ended up causing a massive outbreak in the city of Baltimore, leading to hundreds of thousands of deaths (estimates are approx. 492,000 known deaths) and causalities (50,631) and disappearances (about 28,500 still unaccounted for) related to the Baltimore Incident as of 2082.

Though the situation is mainly secured by now, the Outbreak did a lot of damage to the city and surrounding neighborhoods and resulted in most of the population of Baltimore being either injured or killed as a result. Those responsible have also died during the outbreak but there are a few fugitives still at large, namely the former CEO of OsCorp, Nora Veronica Osborn. Hopefully, the BSAA will find her and she will be held responsible for the amount deaths and destruction her company has caused.

If the other organizations/persons/etc. mentioned existed as prevalently as you say it should in our dimension, I would know. Aside from being the guy who developed the first vaccines for the NH virus (and currently the only person who was not involved with OsCorp that is a leading expert on this virus as I studied it.. far too closely while was trapped in Baltimore), I am virologist and immunologist who has studied many different viral agents over the years, especially viruses that are tied to biological warfare such as the much older Tyrant Virus (T-Virus) and its variants.

So in short? Pax said it best: your experiences are not universal.

What is true in your universe may not even exist in another. Hope this clears everything up and no, I do not want to repeat myself anymore than I have to.

Have a nice day.

[yokune-ruko]

hey sorry but idk much abt the topic, could you elaborate on the wool and honey being touted as ethically flawless thing? good faith i swear :(

the general thing to internalize about any discussion surrounding this is that if a product can be produced cheaper using exploitation, it will, and this is especially true of animal products, as animals can't form unions, demand better conditions, etc.

what i'm talking about when i say that is posts like the one that's being responded to here https://vegspoblr.tumblr.com/post/712252398952906752/and-it-doesnt-shed-microplastics

note the insistence that vegans "need" to support a less, but ultimately still, cruel version of the thing they're against; not that there are concessions that have to be made, but that people who morally object to a practice are obligated to support it, because of the (often uninformed, surface-level) reasons they give, which exist in a world outside of profit motive, wherein farmers will indefinitely keep animals that don't produce any profit for them.

having issues with veganism isn't a new concept or even wholly unfair (as a vegan of five years myself, i've come across plenty of people that i feel are overzealous to the point of being ignorant), but this mindset often comes from people who feel that they need to be the one to defend animal agriculture, one of the most powerful and environmentally destructive industries on the planet, from the mean vegans who are saying that it's not really a good thing to treat animals as property, and that they're being the one to debunk veganism, when in reality they're rehashing arguments that have been had over and over, because many people want to also be the one, but have never actually... really spoken to a vegan. their concept of vegans comes from the hypothetical people being debunked, who don't know the first thing about animal agriculture, when in reality they're often parroting propaganda to people who have worked in, or at least seen the insides of, the industry.

as far as the example post itself, they provided some sources, but here's a more comprehensive page; it has a section specifically to address honey farming, as well as wool being under "animals as clothing" https://acti-veg.com/resources/sources/animal-welfare/

many of the ethical issues surrounding sheep farming can be mitigated with proper care, as well as transitioning to sheep that can survive on their own without regular shearing, but even in theory, that doesn't change that these sheep are universally killed well before the end of their natural life, and many of these idealistic changes simply cannot happen on any scale that's sustainable for our current consumption levels.

it's a similar situation with honey; i'm sure you could harvest honey in small quantities without hurting the bees in any way, but that idealism isn't the case, and it doesn't change some of the other issues with honeybee farming, such as out-competing native bees; honeybees are not the ones that need saving, they actually drive out solitary and native bees, who are not "useful" to humans.

and this isn't me saying "you have to give up wool and honey", although i would encourage it, if it's within your means. it's more, next time you see a post saying "hey vegans, listen up. x animal product is actually good", consider who is benefiting from hearing this - is it reinforcing something you already believe? have you thought about why you believe that? does it make sense that a specific product produced under capitalism would be ethical, and if not, why is this person defending it so strongly? does the post stereotype vegans? (in general, if it portrays agave or plastic as the only viable alternatives to honey or wool, respectively, the answer is yes) is this stereotype justified? (for example, have you ever met someone who believes that wool is bad but plastic is not? do you know anyone who uses agave instead of honey? i don't, and i know plenty of vegans) if the answer to any of these gives you the impression that something is not quite right (including on this post! i'm just some guy on the internet, i don't have all the answers), then it's a cue that maybe the person is responding to a guy that they made up - and if you have an idea of what you're arguing against, you don't have to make up guys.

this post got very long so i'm gonna leave it here. i hope that thoroughly answered your question lol

[a-romantic--aromantic]

if you are a blank blog/no pfp just a friendly reminder i Will reach out to let you know how this site works because im assuming youre new and dont understand the culture and letting yall know seems best but heres some main takeaways:

Tumblr is anonymous. please please please dont use your name as or in your url. its a really important aspect of this site to maintain that anonymity and most of the time its an easy way to identify porn bots- they use peoples names. if you have your name in your url its an easy way to get blocked.

your blog is your blog. you dont have to make a single ounce of content, but the point of it is to save the content you like for later, which is done through reblogging. reblogging makes a save that can only be deleted by you, even if the original poster deactivates or deletes it. this is a really cool feature! it means you’ll never lose stuff you like!

if you like to lurk, thats okay! tumblr likes dont actually do/mean anything though, and is not actually any sort of a real way to show the people making stuff that you like what theyre doing or support them. if you want there is a setting to make your blog private- it means people wont see anything but your username and your profile picture without a password

speaking of profile picture! if you do not have one people will think you are a bot. they will block you for being a bot. it doesnt matter what it is it could be the color gray just avoid using the tumblr default profile picture.

tags! tags are an easy way to add commentary or share anecdotes or ramble without interrupting the content of the post. people love these! they are widely supported, and usually can “pass peer review” as a way of saying that someone else thought what you said was funny/important enough to share in the main post, either by screenshot or copy pasting, and tagging the person who made them. usually, we do not/did not start the “prev tags” thing. it can have its uses, but nobody likes a hunt through prev tags. if its more that 2/3 people back, the culture here isnt to pissy about copy pasting, and if youre worried about credit, just add another tag with their name

🌟bonus round 🌟 tumblr is actively unmarketable and does not want our information to be sold or used. this means that you Should Not Use the algorithm, particularly, you should curate your dash and follow people. a large part of the point is chronological consumption, and that old posts recirculate indefinitely. take advantage of the benefits from the site, and understand that the nonsensical ads are because of the lack of information tumblr is collecting on us. they are protecting our privacy and our information. we want to make sure it continues that way. due to tumblr protections of us, and the way that it is following-based rather than algorithm-based, this also means you Do Not Need to censor anything. this includes heavy content, swear words, silly ridiculous threatening posts that are unhinged and unrealistic. censoring isn’t necessary here. like i said, take advantage of the benefits of being here. its good here.

thats all, i hope yall newbies enjoy tumblr! good luck!
