#i'm not tagging this i'm just venting lol

[confessyourship]

My family knows my swf twitter and my uncle follows me there just to vent in dms to me about family stuff, but I do retweet posts that are about anti censorship and swf fandom things. (no, my family doesnt give a fuck about fandom lol)

But there were these antis trying to bully me and my two other friends on twitter by tagging us and telling us is fictional kids are the same as real kids and you if you draw or write them sexualize or dead, you are a bad person, you should be in jail. I replied, but got then got told to kill myself (how original), so I ignored it.

Then my uncle suddenly shows up in the thread replying with some gif from a horror comedy movie where zombie soldiers stomp on a kid to death into mush. And then the thread got over 200 replies of anger from antis.

LOL. I'm not sure if my uncle is actually proship or agrees with them, but that was funny.

One thing the Dragon Age fandom has always been really terrible at is the concept of nuance, or 'multiple things can be true at the same time'. The whole Lucanis situation is making that very clear.

Here's the deal. I love that Lucanis has been identified as demisexual panromantic. I love that it's been clarified that he's a virgin. This is genuinely cool and as someone who falls somewhere in that demi area it's great to see.

However, it can ALSO be true that there was significant content missing from his overall romance that made this feel incredibly unsatisfying. For me, what would have made ALL the difference is even just one conversation with Rook after that "almost kiss" scene where he kind of explains his situation. And I absolutely do not mean "Hello Rook I am demisexual panromantic, here's exactly what that means in super clinical and awkwardly modern terms". I mean something like (and this would clearly be written in a more nuanced way, I'm just talking about concepts here) "That person who you saw flirting with you wasn't the real me. I was imitating Illario/I was using Crow training techniques, and I don't want to be dishonest with you. I like to take things slow and get to know someone, and I feel like I'm really falling for you but I don't want to rush things, especially physically. I don't have a lot of experience with that and I need you to be patient."

GREAT. Perfect. It explains to the PC that Lucanis does have feelings for you that are reciprocated but he wants to take things slow. That's literally all we needed. And no, one or two lines in missable banter doesn't count as him revealing this. This needed to be a proper cutscene WITH Rook.

And, this is coming from someone whose first Bioware romance ever was Josephine. I hold such a special place in my heart for her and while I don't know if it was ever confirmed she was demi/ace, there was no ~spicy sex scene and there didn't need to be because the other content was there! I was going to fight a duel for that woman for gods sake!!

realized a drawing i'm doing rn is almost identically posed to one i did 8.5 years ago of a different oc, except the old drawing was instantly tainted by one of the players featured messaging me asking if i could take it down because their abusive, possessive rp partner saw it and got jealous of them "roleplaying behind their back" and i said "nah" and it became a whole Thing that i should have walked away from at that exact moment but didn't and the 6 months that followed contained some of the most truly condensed batshit i have ever witnessed in an rp community already well-known for its batshittery.

... anyway i love my friends. so happy to accidentally redeem the pose.

We need tags for platonic relationships between characters, so we can have tags for anti platonic relationships, so I can block them. Most of the time it's not even because I hate seeing posts arguing why characters wouldn't get along (though sometimes it does happen that the argumentation pisses me off), most of the time it's like "well, I agree that they wouldn't get along, but also I get sad if I think about it. Yeah their narratives mirror eachother in such a way that they're better off as foes but have you considered that I want them to get along? I should be allowed to make an informed decision before clicking on a post that is gonna make me sad about fictional characters for the rest of the day.

Already seen victim blaming on xitter 👍 Lets not do that and lets leave the hermits alone. Make up your own minds on if you should support Iskall. But I feel like if one of his VH team members leaving for differing morals, the hermits going back 6 plus years to remove him from thumbnails and titles, and removing him from the site and merch should be enough Doc even said they can't talk about it which could mean anything, including something legal. Mumbo said there were no minors invovled but doesn't mean others weren't since there ARE victims Just leave the hermits be, and let the victims decide if they want to come out. And stop victim blaming lmao

It's crazy to me that my doctors often criticize me for having "medical anxiety" but i never really had medical anxiety (to this extent at least) before I moved here and started seeing the doctors at this practice, where upon learning that I have a mental illness that has psychosis elements, would literally NEVER miss a chance to try to convince me that ALL my physical health issues are just a figment of my imagination, psychosis, or my apparent desire for attention ... (and like, not to mention they would oftentimes refuse to test or treat me unless i first "lost a bunch of weight"). My PCP once tried to convince me i must not be taking my mental health meds and that's why i "thought" i was having these health concerns... and like, belittling me to the point where I was told, point blank, to my face: "I'm not testing you for lyme Disease because it would be a waste of resources and you cannot possibly have it" (his exact words), despite my growing up and living in NEW ENGLAND, as well as one of the lyme disease capitols of the world, my dad being a deer hunter and having lyme disease himself, also having a bunch of symptoms that maybe could be other things too but were definitely in-line with lyme disease, but yeah, because I have a mental health disorder I must be just looking for attention 🙄 Now I avoid going to the doctor and when I do, I just downplay all my health concerns, even tho some are pretty serious and have a very negative impact on my day to day life.

Oh, the irony of being belittled by doctors for having "medical anxiety" when they were the ones who gave me medical anxiety in the first place lol

when I want to write something self indulgent to give me all the angsty and cuddly hurt/comfort feels but I can't because I end up feeling guilty because I'm seeking after feels that I feel in an inappropriate place because my mom told me one time when I was 15 that I shouldn't search that out or it's probably sexual sin but it confuses me because ALL the feels happen that way for me even if it's entirely platonic and nonsexual and so I don't know if it's okay to want to write to that because apparently all pleasure of any sort, even over platonic stories, is sexual or comes with a possibly probably sexual feeling and I also am having a hard time figuring out what's genuine conviction from God and what's just my anxiety/OCD/perfectionism/fear of failure

i get the criticism people have for how veilguard handles the crows but also i don't think it's unrealistic for an organisation to change over the course of over two decades, more than one near-world-ending event and a number of deaths among the leadership, as well as an ongoing hostile occupation of a city that is quite important to said organisation, like. yeah. the crows of 9:52 probably aren't going to be the same as the crows of 9:30
