The poll being 50-50 is really hilarious to me for some reason 😂
I can do you one better because I watched all of it unfold >:3
So at first people were voting for "the right choice" and I was pleasantly surprised bc I know I'd vote for the one I like. But it's reasonable so yeah, I understood it. SUDDENLY it changed in favor of "the character I like" and I was oho? interesting? what a change of heart!! But then it changed BACK to the reasonable choice and I was so sure it would win, like yeah obviously!! So when I checked the next time it was literally 50.8 % for the right choice and 49.2% for the character, so like, one person difference or something and I was so shocked. And then... someone actually managed to even it out. This poll really was crazy ngl xD

Being a “Fun Fact !” kind of autistic is all fun and games until you get halfway through sharing an interesting tidbit and realize that it probably wasn’t appropriate to share in polite company and now you have to deal with the consequences :(
#autism#neurodivergent#adhd#fun facts#GOD I’m such an idiot#anyways now a 10 year old is out there looking up swear words online and it’s all my fault :(#I got so excited by the fact that I knew a fun fact#that I didn’t stop to think that maybe not everyone knows that fun fact for a reason :(#it’s like explaining how to successfully bury a body at a book club#or explaining the dangers of Scientology to your sister’s boyfriend the first time you meet him#or debating gay sex positions with your best friend in front of your mom#no matter how much I wish to be a beacon of knowledge in this world#sometimes there are things others just don’t want to know#and consciously that’s valid but the autism ? I does not care

“When I first heard it, from a dog trainer who knew her behavioral science, it was a stunning moment. I remember where I was standing, what block of Brooklyn’s streets. It was like holding a piece of polished obsidian in the hand, feeling its weight and irreducibility. And its fathomless blackness. Punishment is reinforcing to the punisher. Of course. It fit the science, and it also fit the hidden memories stored in a deeply buried, rusty lockbox inside me. The people who walked down the street arbitrarily compressing their dogs’ tracheas, to which the poor beasts could only submit in uncomprehending misery; the parents who slapped their crying toddlers for the crime of being tired or hungry: These were not aberrantly malevolent villains. They were not doing what they did because they thought it was right, or even because it worked very well. They were simply caught in the same feedback loop in which all behavior is made. Their spasms of delivering small torments relieved their frustration and gave the impression of momentum toward a solution. Most potently, it immediately stopped the behavior. No matter that the effect probably won’t last: the reinforcer—the silence or the cessation of the annoyance—was exquisitely timed. Now. Boy does that feel good.”
— Melissa Holbrook Pierson, The Secret History of Kindness (2015)
#dog books#this chapter was very sad reading#when you become aware of punishment#and its use and its prevalence#it's hard not to despair#again this is why positive reinforcement feels like absolution#maybe now my eyes are open I can make up for what I did#what I did because it's what everyone does#because it's more acceptable to punish than to do anything else#I've been having so many thoughts about punishment and society and justice#this book was very validating#another great validating moment in my jumbled thoughts#was listening to the You're Wrong About episode on justice#with Amanda Knox#it helped to ease the despair a little

free will is drawing ur two favorite characters together and making them gay
#akekita content in this economy? it's more likely than you think#this is like for the three ppl that ship them (me tumblr user haliai and atlus)#also which boyliker at atlus designed yusuke's phantom outfit like WHY is he dressed like a gay hooker 💀💀💀💀#the skintight spandex bodysuit designed to show off the slutty waist?? the exposed cleavage?? the cunty little fox tail?? bro 😭#my hand was shaking while i was drawing the second img it felt so IMMODEST 😭😭😭😭😭#i wish atlus confirmed which highschool akechi went to bc i love the hc that he attends kosei#his tie matches hifumi's ribbon so i think they're trying to tell us smt (im delusional)#ANYWAY akechi and yusuke would match each other's freak lowkey like they're both hardcore yappers that weird everyone else tf out#akechi would find solidarity in the fact that yusuke doesn't shut up abt whatever he's interested in#also also the fact that akechi is a mirror version of him bc they're victims of the same situation#both being exploited and utilized as tools after their mothers death#by the man they called father in exchange for validation or a false sense of place#but ultimately yusuke was saved by phantom thieves while akechi refused any pity and slowly succumbed to fate of his own making#really makes you look at atlus and think whats going on in their buttery smooth brains for not including other character interactions#aside from the social links with joker. the wasted dynamic potential between some of the characters is insane 😭#persona 5#p5#yusuke kitagawa#kitagawa yusuke#goro akechi#akechi goro#akekita#bro me when i stay up until three am drawing persona instead of finishing my lab (i’m beyond cooked 💀💀)#i think i need to switch college majors i can’t keep doing this#lotus draws

mom vs dad incantation class
(also no thought… just Marika with her little daughters)
#elden ring#queen marika the eternal#melina#malenia blade of miquella#radagon of the golden order#miquella the unalloyed#albi’s art#idk about you guys but seeing the Light of Miquella and Multilayered Ring of Light incantation in the DLC truly validates#my ??? at Radagon exchanging offensive spells with his kid in the base game while everyone keeps saying it’s harmless frisbee fun 😭#why are you teaching kids spell like that then it balloons into the ones in the DLC 😭#what’s even funnier is the Heal From Afar spell does kinda act like those rings of light but it’s healing spell so maybe Marika does look a#those two throwing projectiles everywhere around the house and kinda develop her own heal spell like that too

child ward in search of belonging indulges in juvenile fantasies as a coping mechanism. sad!
#my drawings#asoiaf#asoiaf fanart#theon greyjoy#not tagging the others bc they’re products of his imagination#so @ their fans: dw they’re not real…….#well i mean they’re not real anyway but as in a portrayal of their canon selves etc#this has been finished for so long but i debated whether or not to upload it here lol i’m not super happy w it#i think i did this mainly bc i wanted to draw fancy and ornate clothing (at least by my standards lol)#but it’s a quote i think abt sometimes bc it’s kind of endearing and sad and funny at the same time#adwd#well the quote is from there#also he’s yassifying himself a bit in his imagination… he’s handsome and successful and everyone admires him#and sansa’s kind of.. reduced to his prize in a way. while his focus is on ned welcoming him into the family#legitimacy and validation and safety 👍

also, i really find it interesting how people can genuinely go about saying "Well this group isn't attacked for their identity so they can't be queer " while then turning around and. attacking said group. for their identity. and exemplifying classic __-phobic tropes. It's really dumb. You are being the thing that you claim does not exist
#this post is about the current aro discourse nonsense going about but is absolutely more generally applicable.#aromantic#aro#idk about anyone else but i always find the aphobia at least a little bit validating? in a weird way. because they're always saying#'you arent queer if you arent oppressed' or whatever bs. so whenever they turn around and. and attack us for being aro its like#they're showing me (and the rest of everyone) why i must be queer. by their own logic

#ive fixated on this show since i was a fetus do u know how surreal it is to see it go viral again over some shit like THIS#the backyardigans#backyardigans#also /pos im about to cry cause these are blowing up on twitter and i feel so validated#shumm's art#digital art#nick jr#noggin#2000s nostalgia#medibang paint pro#redesign#pablo backyardigans#tyrone backyardigans#uniqua backyardigans#tasha backyardigans#austin backyardigans#artists on tumblr#being simultaneously excited to get new content for the first time in like 14 years for it to look AI generated is crazy (im not ok)#i said it on twit but it feels like they generated a prompt. then paid an animator/artist/whatever to model and design said prompt.#it also sounds...really weird????? i cant tell if it's ai singing or real kids but. it's lowkey unsettling to me lol#anyways i snapped on everyone esp austin#HIRE ME FOR A REBOOT HIRE ME FOR A REBOOT HIRE ME FOR A REBOOT

guys does it not scare you that romance is actually dead like even at my age i don’t see anyone else having those whirlwind romances and just having fun w it. it all feels so trite & transactional
#and somehow commodified too bc everything becomes like an insta post or a tiktok post or whatever#and then even a happy couples ik idk there’s that little oomph missing#everything is so unromantic these days I’m being so serious#this is not a specific dig at dating apps although I think they are not for everyone for like a valid reason#like I think it’s ok to want some excitement idk why is everyone trying to kill fun???#getting into a relationship is vital but it’s the fun to me that matters not just the end destination of being w someone

hello nonhuman ally / young uneducated nonhuman. you have a bomb strapped to your chest. to diffuse it, you must explain why alterhumans are valid without saying any of these phrases
- they still know they're human / it's not like they believe they're physically nonhuman
- well they're not delusional / mentally ill
- it's just a phase, don't bother them / let kids be kids / they're just exploring their identity
- well they're just [insert something that only describes otherpaws / furries]
you have 1 hour.
#/silly#alterhuman#kitoposting#otherkin#therian#nonhuman#therianthropy#nonhumanity#otherkinnity#alterhumanity#i came up with this while walking to the store#for the third one: i'm not saying kids can't be alterhumans#and alterhumanity can certainly be a phase and still be valid#BUT IT IS NOT ALWAYS A PHASE#AND IT IS NOT ALWAYS KIDS#also for the second one: being mentally ill shouldn't be so stigmatised the biggest times for my nonhuman identity was for coping reasons.#like come on. ik plenty of mentally ill nonhumans and they're awesome#also the reason why i say nonhuman here instead of alterhuman is due to the fact that not all alterhumans are nonhuman#and i wanted to use the 'they still know they're human' quote everyone likes to flaunt

Bare skin, bare feelings.
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#lan wangji#wei wuxian#blood#Imagine coming off as homophobic to your crush so bad he weaponizes a strip tease against you.#LWJ is just having a storm of bad emotions. His tummy hurt real bad and he was just trying to be brave about it!#WWX is just trying to be a good bro and heal his friendcrush. It worked but not for the reasons he thinks it did.#LWJ's shyness is also hilarious here considering they have bathed together before. Literally nothing there he hasn't seen before.#Granted it was a few years back and before he was left to stew in his feelings.#LWJ is more focused on his pride than being responsible and reasonable (getting is wounds treated).#His arc really is about accepting that he can't be perfect. That there is importance in being honest and vulnerable.#The tragedy is that he realizes this way too late.#Pride is the worst sin because it destroys your ability to protect anything other than the smallest crown in the world.#When everyone is gone and you are left alone - was it worth it to feel safe and protected from showing your flaws?#Control over oneself is in conflict with connection to others. You cannot pick both.#Hanguang-jun appears to us as a 'perfect guy' but the truth is that he is the version of LWJ who is done with *needing* that validation.#And this time - He can properly reach out to those he wants to be close with.
