RATE YOUR MUSE'S TRAITS 0-10 ; a study.

compassion. 7/10. johann, unfortunately, puts his heart on his sleeves. he may appear aloof, distant &. disconnected from the rest; it's a façade to protect himself for being used because he has been in relations where he gets used because he is compassionate upon others. he is trying to establish boundaries &. be less compassionate towards others, however if a person tells about their misfortune, johann won't hesitate to help.

bitterness. 7/10. he oft looks back upon his childhood &. knows he deserve better but he cannot blame his mother or his family for it. his family has always seen himself as a saviour of their misfortunes, they expect that johann will return something to them but he is bitter that he has a superficial obligation from expectations. he wishes his father weren't idealistic &. have motivation to provide a better world to him; he knows his intention may be good because he wants a better world for his son, but it ruins everyone else. he wished he didn't born, so everybody else could be happy.

happiness. 6/10. he may have gotten everything he wanted: a stable career, vehicles &. motorcycles he always dream of, the status he earns for himself . . . but he knows he lacks happiness in relationship. he wishes he were selfish than selfless in his open marriage. he wishes he could have a conventional wife &. a child from loving marriage but he knows the idea does repulse &. confines him. he is torn in desire &. expectations. he wishes he were a single father, perhaps it will make him happy that he can be a father to someone &. be better person and father.

politeness. 8/10. johann knows pleasantries &. decency. he upholds those qualities during every situation; regardless of the fact that he often thinks he is better than everyone else. he doesn't want to put them down without justified reason. he was taught to be polite by his mother so everybody can see that he is a functional entity in the society.

pride. 10/10. he knows he is better than everyone else. he knows he can do better than everyone else. it's easy to hurt his pride when someone compares him to someone. he believes he is a person that deserve to be seen & heard after the mistreatment he endured. he thinks being prideful is being gentle to himself.

honesty. 6/10. he lies. he lies about his upbringing &. his father to everyone because he knows the truth could ruin the imagery he built. he lies to himself to the people he loves but he's been forthright about it these days after his divorce. however it can be seen as insensitive, but he just thinks he deserve to be kinder to himself.

bravery. 9/10. he is brave. there is no doubt about it. he takes actions and make risky decision on things he knows it will work out in his favour. there's no doubt about it.

recklessness. 6/10. he contemplates, or can be overcontemplates about things before taking a step because his action does reflect on his mind . . . if he missteps, he thinks he is a failure for allowing himself to make a mistake.

ambition. 9/10. he is ambitious, he wants to prove everyone else that he can achieve everything he wants. but these days, he's been contemplating whether it's worth it after all; to have a blind ambition to prove his worth, &. yet nobody truly knows about himself. he is self-driven motivated to repay everything he didn't have, &. he wants to achieve things he may see he lacks upon when he sees others.

loyalty. 7/10. he is actually a very loyal person, if he sees the other as a person that is worth of his devotion. he doesn't want to get attached in lieu of making a mistake to place a devotion on other because he thought his marriage was a failure. when he finds that person, he will be loyal to them.

love. 8/10. his marriage may be identified as a compromised one, but he always see that there is love in that. he loved his ex-wife deeply that he lose himself in the process. people think he loved too deeply without boundaries that it made him became unloveable; a puppy that gets kicked, but always come back. he tries to establish himself a boundary between love &. attachment, but as a result he becomes distant from what he wants because he is afraid he will lose himself yet again.

sense of family. 5/10. he distance himself from his family. he doesn't want to be a scapegoat of their misfortune because he knew he were born as an insurance child for his family. he doesn't want to get involve in his extended family's business because he knows he will be used by them. but jo tries to fix his relationship with his cousin, nina. nina loathes him because he has abandoned her to take care of their extended family, nina hates him that he is a son everyone wants &. yet doesn't return anything. he loves his second cousin triplets, nina's children, he is uncle jo to them. he wants to build a family but he doesn't know if he can have a family per now. he has a target to have a child around age 50s but he has to open himself to the possibility to be loved, &. love them, or else it would be a loveless relationship, which johann doesn't want a child to get involved in that.

attractiveness. 10/10. he knows he is handsome, everyone always tells him that; he uses his attractiveness to have flings &. ons to fulfill his sex-drive. he uses his attractiveness to keep people on arm's length, because he knows people will see him as attractive without knowing him deeply &. it works for him to create boundaries.

sex drive. 10/10. he sees sex as a necessity. it fulfills his needs &. desire to be acknowledged. he fucks people, he makes his desire to be known, he voices &. express things he want to do &. things he doesn't like. he pleasures people, he wants to be pleasured. sex is a necessity in life.

Following the author of The Last Unicorn on Facebook is the only thing that makes being on that site worthwhile.

I saw this question posed on tiktok, but I think Tumblr would really enjoy it too.

If a fae creature offered to give one million dollars for a bone FROM YOUR BODY chosen at random, how many bones would you allow them to take?

Light clarifications; The fae is not the one choosing the bones. The bone is taken at random. Each bone, no matter the size or importance, is worth a full million dollars. You must also declare the exact number first, you can't go bone-by-bone. You either say 2 or you say 10, you can't work your way up to a higher number. The bones are removed instantaneously, and the money is given immediately as well. You will not get in government trouble for acquiring the money.

Tell me in the tags/replies how many bones you'd let the fae take. And as always, reblog for bigger sample size.

if this comic resonated with you, it would mean the world to me if you donated to this palestinian family's escape fund.

--

no creative notes because this isn't that kind of comic.

I know I don���t owe any of you anything but I still felt compelled to write about my long term absence. And I feel far enough away from the dangerous spot I was in to be able to make this comic. I have a therapist now, and she agreed that making this could be a very cathartic gesture, and the start of properly leaving these thoughts behind me. I am still, at seemingly random times, blindsided by fleeting desires to kill myself. They’re always passing urges, but it’s disarming, and uncomfortable. I worry sometimes that my brain’s spent so long thinking only about suicide that it’s forgotten how to think about anything else. Like, now that I've opened that door for myself, I'll never be able to fully shut it again. But I’m trying my best to encourage my mind in other directions. We'll see how that goes.

I am still donating all proceeds from my store to Palestinian causes. So far, I've donated over $15K, not including donations coming from my own pocket or the fundraising streams which jointly raised around $10K. In the time since I made my initial post about where this money would be going, the focus has shifted from aid organisations to directly donating to escape funds.

If you'd like to do the same, you can look at Operation Olive Branch, which hosts hundreds of Palestinian escape funds or donate to Safebow, which has helped facilitate the safe crossing and securing of important medical procedures for over 150 at-risk palestinians since the beginning of the genocide.

tbh i would have loved a minecraft movie where the world was visibly updating around steve and alex as they explore. like, the first couple days have the old textures and their movement is laggy etc.

it takes a little while for the audience to notice, but as the days go by, there are more mobs and new trees and the movements of everything is smoother. and suddenly everything is so much more colourful than it was before and now the oceans have life, and the villages are huge, and the nether is full of biodiversity and the caves are enormous and theres something lurking at the bottom

and throughout the movie, you can see the odd character in the background of youtubers that started playing during whatever version it is at that point, and when we reach 1.20 all of a sudden alex and steve run into this group of people and its all the new character skins that were introduced at that point

idk its a shame we get something that visibly didnt have much thought put into it aside from 'lets make jumanji again but this time its minectaft' when there are so many possibilities that have so much more interest

We are well beyond canary in the coalmine warning levels with the way trans people and particularly trans women are treated on this site.

Maybe you've heard the metaphor of allowing wolves and sheep to share the same space, welcoming everyone. You end up with just wolves because allowing them in that space makes it unsafe for any sheep. Or the story about how a nazi goes into a dive bar and is refused service. The bartender then explains to someone else at the bar that if you serve them once they tell their friends and before you know it you're the nazi bar they all go to and normal customers don't feel safe.

Terfs and other bigots are seeing these targeted harassment campaigns succeed against trans women and rejoicing. They see Tumblr ban them and officially stand by those decisions as endorsement for their harassment. It's a sign to bigots across the internet that Tumblr is a good place for them.

And what's more is that a lot of us probably don't realize just how much trans women contribute to Tumblr. The women banned recently were sources of site-wide memes and posts I wasn't even aware originated from them.any years old memes and references can be traced back to trans women on this site.

How many of these folks have to be removed before this is no longer a site you want to be a part of it? Sure you cultivate your own experience, but you can't follow or interact with people who aren't here. And if I wanted to interact with the nazis and terfs I'd go to reddit.

I encourage everyone to reblog this. Trans women shouldn't have to be the only ones speaking out against the bigotry they're experiencing. They shouldn't be the only ones risking their blogs being nuked by staff. We have to stand with them.
