genshin players will be like 'boycott genshin guys dont spend any money on it!!!' but then actively play it, post about it, interact with official posts, give every video views, STILL spend money on it regardless they just do it privately, and just overall continue to promote it with their engagement. like well im sorry ur simply just not boycotting.

Is it fun living with your head buried in the sand for your entire life?

[the-martyrfication-of-the-matron]

how do you feel about the concept of werewolves being animalistic? what i mean is do you like the idea of them being predatory over their pack, or the idea that werewolves might become aggressive when someone messes with their pack or family? and here’s a another one- how werewolves tend to be commonly in polyamorous relationships due to their pack lifestyles? i think it’s kind of cool. then again i love the idea of just close families and their desire to protect one another

I love animalistic werewolves so much. Generally I just love the idea of human(oid) characters being animalistic and kind of closer to their natural instincts and habits than more ‘acceptable ones’.

That said, werewolves in my rewrite will vary on this. Ones that live closer to humans and have a variety of human/werewolf heritage between the pack members will be more ‘socialised’ and have more ‘acceptable’ behaviour, and those that live further with very minimal human heritage will have a lot more of the wolf-like characteristics.

However werewolves are less aggressive to humans in general than they are weary, and avoidant (like normal wolves are). Those that don’t have frequent human contact will remain as far from humans as they can get. But they are still quite terriorial, if a human hunts on their hunting grounds, it’s kind of a ‘you fucked around and now you’re finding out’ situation.

Werewolves aren’t impacted much on a biological level when it comes to polyamory, since wolves are typically (though not exclusively) monogamous creatures. However, socially, it’s a lot more common to see because werewolves tend to be more accepting of that stuff. It’s not that it’s actually more common in werewolves, just more Polyam folk are open about it, and those that aren’t Polyam will probably still be dating someone who is.

However. On the topic of packs and their family-like dynamic. I feel the need to state- alphas don’t exist in packs in the way people like to think they do. In domesticated dogs, an alpha-beta like system does exist, but in wild wolves it does not. The ‘Alpha’ is simply the one that looks after everyone.

So in my rewrite, The alpha is the parent, older sibling, responsible aunt/uncle that babysits their nieces and nephews all the time. They do tend to be the strongest, as they’re often the oldest and the most capable to take care of and protect everyone, but they’re not the most ‘dominant’ one. They’re just the one that confiscates the sticks off of the three year olds before they can shove them up their noses and smacks you upside the head when you almost get yourself killed so you won’t do it again.

— also something else

Presenting werewolves as animalistic is not inherently problematic, but I do feel the need to say this due to how werewolves are presented canonically and the existence of racist tropes in media. Werewolves are displayed as a racial minority, and it’s not uncommon in fantasy media for racial minorities and their culture to be displayed through animalistic races, to try and dehumanise them. This is just to say, if you are presenting animalistic werewolves, do try and be mindful of the tropes that exist, and try not to do what Jesson did and go ‘oh but here’s an equivalent of their experiences to the experiences of actual irl racial minorities!’… because that’s weird. Even ignoring the implications of making werewolves a minority when Jess has a self-admitted werewolf fetish, and an observed saviour complex.

sorry i’m just listening to the vtmb vault tracks and pacing back and forth wishing this game was good. wishing vampire media was good.

Deeply pissed off by accusatory and condescending ask. You're free to correct me but not lecture me. I'm a person with triggers too. Entirely too exhausted to even figure out what you're saying with two essay length asks that equate mental illness stigma with genocidal colonization and also acting like my mutual doesn't have schizophrenia themselves. Please unfollow if you can't explain things without sending me condescending missives about how you're disappointed in me and I should know better and I post "deeply harmful" tags. I am too busy scraping the bottom of the barrel to live up to whatever standards of moral social justice behaviour you think I should follow. I am also utterly traumatized by my 17 years in the psychiatric complex, I am also in a mental health crisis and struggling with bipolar. Neither I nor my OCD appreciate it.

Edit: okay nevermind, after seeing what this person reblogged in response to my mutual's post I have blocked them. Holy shit the vitriol and name-calling. Absolutely no.

poeple will see some shit like genshit literally causing gambling addictions and sigh and roll their eyes but when they see someone atractted to a fictional charatcer from a """"cringy""""" old fandom they scream and cry and shit their pants

[mukuharakazui]

i think vampires are boring as fuck and that the "secret society controlling everything while converting people either en masse or very selectively" thing that vampire media has adopted in recent decades is stupid, boring, and overdone at best. i also think that the "vendor of wine" introduction line from m. defarge to the marquis in tale of two cities is more ominous, symbolic, and badass than anything you could make a vampire say.

however, i will say i think it's funny as fuck that vampires canonically did 9/11 in vtm.

read and reblog please

I want to make sure this information gets through to everyone: the racist genocidal German state could deport Bilal @bilal-salah0 within the next week, after he lost his job and home, heaping cruelty after cruelty onto this young man who has been working nonstop to provide for his family facing genocide in Gaza.

he's supporting 18 people there, including 8 kids under age 16. now Bilal needs to finish fundraising for his family before August 15th when he could be deported. that's one week from today.

Bilal needs to raise €25000 in the next 7 days to make sure his family has enough to survive if he can no longer fundraise. Bilal shared this dire news with us on Tuesday, but in spite of thousands of notes on @malcriada, @appsa, and others' posts about the situation, the campaign received only €3650 in the last two days.

it seems like people are somehow not seeing the urgency and severity of the situation. donations also slowed over the past week because Bilal couldn't be online to promote the campaign, and because of the recent racist attacks against fundraising efforts here. there's a lot of ground to make up and very little time, but we can do it. please donate any amount you can, those €5s add up if enough people help. reblog this as well as the posts linked above, and tell your friends and social media outside tumblr. and most importantly, seriously, please donate whatever you can. we need to come through for Bilal's family now, not later. please take this seriously, please help them.

August 8th: €75,467 / €100,000

How Black Unity Took Down One Of The Most Powerful white Men In sports Media

How Don Imus lost his entire career for calling these women “Nappy Headed Hoes”.  This was the final straw in the career of a career racist. his career ended and the conversation opened on this audience, because the Women of Rutgers Were Winners.

i think one of the great things about dunmeshi's racism is that it isn't just fantasy racism that has a lot of thought and nuance built into it that makes it so believable, tactile, and compelling. there's also elements of real world racism, coexisting rather than being replaced. it's a lot more grounding than other worlds where fantasy racism is a thinly veiled poorly thought out metaphor for real life racism, there's a lot of care and thought put into everything here, which demands care and thought when discussing it, and it's just soooo
