Linktober Day 15; La Abu Ridge!
The blood moon snuck up on them while they’re clearing a monster camp. Good thing Link has a pocket ghost friend nobody knew about!
((What a familiar song… Zelda always had an ear for music. Maybe she can collect it for future analysis?))
Totk Au’s called Familiar Familiar, and focused on Link and Zelda being travel buddies through a post Upheaval Hyrule.
And here’s my patreon for Spoilers and Sketches!

this is entirely petty and personal but i cannot stand the word "whump" it's like unalive to me. just say you enjoy torturing your favourite character so that you can nurse them back to health again like a sickly baby bird they're not real it's okay.
#🐉#like its not in any way actually a Moral Issue it just feels infantilising to me specifically#i acknowledge that its a useful shorthand for the phenomenon of enjoying hurting your guy to the end of achieving comfort and catharsis#but it sets my teeth on edge and makes me go ew. ick.

some of you people are so obsessed with having an acceptable group to ‘punch up’ at that you would rather pretend a marginalized group are Basically The Oppressors™ than listen to their valid criticisms about the fact that ‘punching up’ very rarely hits the intended target, and the majority of the actual damage of that act is suffered by fellow marginalized people in your own community. there is a significant difference between venting frustrations about privileged groups and just outright attacking anyone who (you assume) experiences that axis of privilege regardless of - and in many cases outright denying - their actual lived experiences. it goes far beyond just ‘venting frustrations’ when what you’re really doing is trying to find a moral justification to bully people you don’t like, and when your own desire for catharsis and moral superiority leads to ignoring the voices of the vulnerable people you hurt. you’re not ‘punching up’ - you just like punching people for the sake of punching.
#in writing this im primarily thinking about#transandrophobia#but i kept the language vague bc really its much more widespread than this one issue#this post is about all the queer groups that get ostracized for not being oppressed enough or having ‘too much privilege’#getting lumped in w the oppressors bc we are assumed to have the same privilege and power as them even when we quite literally do not#gaining conditional privileges for not being visibly/openly queer is not the same as having systemic privilege.#at best it’s a defense mechanism that comes with the constant threat of having that privilege revoked should anyone realize you’re queer#if being ‘privileged’ requires hiding or not acknowledging part of your identity then it’s not really a privilege.#my posts#hello future me coming back to edit the tags to say this isnt even a phenomenon exclusive to queerness either#its also relevant to race/disability/etc. i just mainly had queerness in my mind when i wrote the op

discowing + jaybin ! press for quality
txtless + ref under the cut
ignore my horrible art please i drew this on ibis paint x with my finger and the soft felt tip pen brush. and my crappy penmanship.
#discowing isnt actually that bad guys i swear in this essay i will-#isn’t the discowing suit mainly dark blue? no#thats actually a commen phenomenon in comics#because comics#especially older ones#tend to use blue as highlights for black#and oftentimes that leads readers into mistaking the black for blue#common examples of this are in the discowing suit#in batman’s cape#and in spider-man’s outfit#sometimes like with the discowing suit or the spider-man suit#so many people think that it’s blue that it just starts to be drawn and portrayed as blue#thank you for reading my yap session#if u did#dc#dc comics#batman#nightwing#robin#dick grayson#jason todd#discowing#jaybin#NOT A SHIP btw#please dont tag as ship#its not#i cant believe i have to say that

its true he just comes to you in your moment of need
#i was playing the game and then i had to make dinner#i remember seeing posts about this phenomenon before even playing the game... it inspired me i had to know him#it was so funny i was not trying to think of him at all and his voice actor just appeared in my head doing my secondary narration thing#you know what i mean. when youre doing something so you have a little conversation in your head.#its been like years since ive had a character narrate it for me. the speech pattern is even my best impression of him#dont play video game for hours#disco elysium#kim kitsuragi

Really, REALLY good article that helps put a lot of the shit I've been seeing lately into perspective, along with highlighting the weird intersectionality and social concepts that inform transmasculine issues and why they're difficult to discuss (and also makes me glad that I've like...rarely ever seen any of the Toxic Transmasculinity this article talks about holy hell)
#spitblaze says things#dmgw. i still think its painting with a broad brush at best to say 'transandrophobia is an inherently transmisogynistic concept'#but this for sure highlights a phenomenon that i have not had much exposure to so. worth a read at any rate#transgender#transmisogyny#transmasc#doin numbers

being born outside of the west the reality that everyone who lives everywhere is a full person in the way that me and my family are people, and that all the names on a globe are all 'real places' where people live always felt like an obvious given to me, to the point where even as a kid going to primary school in canada i remember finding it like profoundly bizarre and alienating that all the kids around me didnt have that understanding already and the way that they would be so cruel and insensitive upon finding out i wasn't born in canada was viscerally upsetting, even teachers would treat me differently and i would get this even from canadian born nonwhite kids which i just couldn't comprehend. a sensation i'll never forget is being in like 2nd grade and being one of the only people to raise their hand when the teacher asked if anyone here was born outside canada and just the way i was treated like an alien and not in a good way, a distinct feeling of everyone in the room thinking there is something fundamentally different about me in a negative sense and i just couldn't understand it. the kind of myopic chauvinism that gets ingrained in people from such a young age by the culture felt upsetting to me, even though i didn't have the words to explain why or what exactly i was experiencing because i was literally 7. like i knew the rest of the world was real and normal because i'm from there. that should be a given, a basic assumption, and it not being one in the west is Not representative of a 'universal' mistake that everyone on earth makes but rather of a jingoistic eurocentric ideology that is taught from an extremely young age
#like i dont know how to tell you that most people in the world know that other countries are real#including people with limited education in heavily exploited countries. because its a given#the fact that it isnt a given in the west is a specific phenomenon

It’s breached containment please pray for me
#I love the unique internet phenomenon of a post going even slightly outside its intended audience#and immediately coming in contact with people who have never heard of the concept of a joke in their whole lives

Mexico when Texans have to start crossing the border for a better life good heathcare
#this meme requires some suspension of disbelief because people were already going to Mexico for their heathcare prior to this event#this is part of a phenomenon called medical tourism#which exists in part because its cheeper for someone who is in need of medical care in the US#to book a flight to another country#receive medical care in that country#and travel back#than it is for them to receive medical care in the US#anyway#great job#mexico#reproductive rights#abortion

i might get crucified for this but i think sometimes people just say ‘americans’ to make fun of certain groups of people without getting called out for being a dick. like AMERICANS (black people) have weird violent GANG MUSIC and disgusting FRIED FOOD and TALK WEIRD . and AMERICANS (fat people) are DISGUSTING PIGS and EAT WAY TOO MUCH and are total SLOPS. and AMERICANS (poor people) are TOTAL IDIOTS and REDNECKS who TALK STUPID. like are you really making fun of americans here or is there something you want to tell me
#its not like this applies to like. rock and roll disc or big beverage#there are a lot of perfectly innocent american jokes that im fine with!!! make fun of us its okay we do suck sometimes#im just calling attention to a phenomenon that i dont see people bring up that often#which is thinly veiled racism or classism or fatphobia shielded as funny american joke#fett rambles

the theyfab backlash shit drives me a little crazy mainly because it’s like, so insanely shallow and so clearly based in arbitrary norms of online identity speak. like, directly addressing the past experience of sex assignment, because it doesn’t dance around it, is always likened to misgendering and bioessentialism. and you see this despite these people being the first to rely on actual bioessentialist rhetoric; the first to bring up “male and female socialization” as a way to prescriptively excuse their behavior or cast harmful light on transfems, the first to misgender themselves by actively identifying with an idea of inherent femaleness at other opportunities where they can benefit, etc…
#sasha speaks#ftr its like definitely dickish but its punching up at a very real phenomenon of ppl who cling to bioessentialist ideas of ‘being female’

fandoms writ large being unable to comprehend a relationship being interesting or complex or narratively rich or compelling or worth dissecting/making fanworks and meta about or meaningful or pivotal or central or profound or whatever else without cramming romance into it somewhere is so like. aside from being MASSIVELY alienating is also just boring as hell. like damn, skill issue ig.
#gav gab#no matter how complex or rich a relationship is#a fandom without fail is Always going to go YEAH BUT THEY WERE IN LOVE RIGHT#OR AT LEAST ONE OF THEM WAS#ITS ROMANTIC AND NOW I CARE#like please. Motherfucker Please.#SKILL ISSUE!#not even really thinking of anything in particular this time#just the whole phenomenon overall#aro blogging

I have brain worms so I just gotta share this.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Its late at night and Clark and Bruce are falling asleep together in the same bed -
Clark: Someone's really clingy tonight, you alright bats?
Bruce [nervously]: Oh, yeah everything's perfect! I just love to hold you.
- Earlier the morning before -
Bruce wakes up at 2 am, and sleepilly calls for Clark, before realizing he's completely alone in bed. He jumps up and makes his way out of the opened door, and continues calling for Clark.
Before he looks up and sees his boyfriend lazily floating about with his head slung back and his pillow barely holding onto his hand.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Bruce now uses himself as an anchor so this doesn't happen again, Clark doesn't mind one bit -
#superbat#God. I fucking love them#I LOVE BEING A MULTISHIPPER#i can have sanity and insanity its phenomenonal.#batman#superman#dc#dc comics#batfam#first time making a post like this oh boy#I hope the wrong people dont find my blog than realize i do infact have heavy brain worms over batjokes too#anyway live laugh love
