Oh my god 2025 ummm what the fuck amirite (it's not even for me yet it's over 10pm)
Okay so um hi hey hello. What a year huh (at least for me). So wild I transed my whole gender like damn the she/her to he/him pipeline was so real but ANYWAYS
I already said quite a bit during Christmas here but I would be lying if I said I didn't have a million more things to say. Even more to some certain mutuals/friends that have really been nothing but kind to me. Some old ones, some recent ones, I can't list everyone but I genuinely just appreciate any amount of support and love, big or small.
I've been thinking about whether I should directly say a few things to some mutuals/friends for a while (and I already have to some, but I don't mind repeating myself lol), but I think New Year's is the perfect chance to do so.
Apologies for the tagging in advance SUDISAHFIUHISDE

@crystallizsch I have already expressed to you how much I appreciate and grateful I am to you for encouraging me to make this blog, way before we had ever even interacted. I love you a lot buddy, you're absolutely the best<3
@oya-oya-okay OYAAA OYA OYAAA!!! I love you sm my darling friend, your kind words and support have genuinely been some of the biggest reasons I pushed through this year. I know the latter part of this year has been really hard for you, but I want you to know you have my support for whatever you need <3
@viperbunnies YOU HAVE MADE ME SOBBED SM ESPECIALLY WITH YOUR GIFTS. I sometimes go back to see your art of my persona or my oc just to make myself feel a little better. Ty for making me feel part of this amazing community (PS. I still get shroompocalypse war flashbacks/j) <3
@fell-e We have mostly chatted on Discord recently and legit you're one of the funniest and nicest people I've had the pleasure of talking to! I can't wait to interact more in 2025, you're such a nice person to be around <3
@lficanthaveloveiwantpower Hi Nah! We don't interact really one-on-one, but the kind words you've given me have always made me smile. You're one of the biggest reasons I got comfortable with openly self-shipping and sharing my thoughts about my f/os. And don't even let me mention how much joy your art has given me, you're seriously one of the best artists I've had the pleasure of being mutuals with <3
@theolivetree123 I'm a sucker for your ocs I won't even lie they're always so creative and fun! Still remember the time you asked to be mutuals and I just DIE/pos. It really was a pleasant surprise and I look forward to every post you make, whether it's art or just talking about your ocs and dynamics! You're extremely creative you genuinely inspire me a lot <3
@sunnysidesevenup I KNNNNOOOOWWWW we became moots pretty recently but like. You're so cool dude wtf. Legit freaked out when YOU followed ME first. I got cold feet about following you back for a while ahaha.....but I'm so happy I did you're such a fun dude I love your creations so much too (low-key biased towards Tilly...I love him sm and for what...)
@jadelover69 MIMI YOU ARE SO FUN, JUST SOO FUN TO INTERACT WITH YOUR WHOLE ENERGY IS SOOO SDUBHDSJNAGISBSJDH/POS your reblogs always make me giggle, even if it's just you straight up dying <3 Tysm for showing so much love for my creations, it means the absolute world
@summerspook You madman. I can't believe we've been friends for almost 2 years online. You have helped me through so much stuff, sometimes I even felt guilty about it. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being one of my bestest friends, talking to you is one of the main things I look forward to every day, I can't express how much appreciate you and our friendship <3
-
OKAY THIS IS ALL FOR NOW there are more of you but I can't articulate my thoughts and feelings the best, but either way I love and appreciate all of you with all my heart.
New Year's has slowly lost its meaning for me (I'm neutral about it) but at least I get to use it to show my application to the people who have been with me this year, mutual or not tbh <3
Also if you wanna say something back but not publically, dms are open for mutuals <3
#ugh getting me sappy and emotional on main smhh#just.#my god what a year.#I never imagined this blog would get this far#that I would actually make positives impacts on people#small or big#I just. idk never saw myself as someone who could#all my life I felt like I was nothing but trouble and a bother. so I focused all my energy to trying to help others#and I still do it to some extend. but I do try to prioritise myself way more than I used to#just the fact I my art is liked. hell even loved. by some people just#I don't even know. I don't have the words#it's overwhelming but in the best way#I get so giddy when people say nice things about my creations#because it makes me realise I can be so much more than just that annoying kid in the back of the class no one likes#I can do what I love and still have people like it. I don't need to bend over backwards for others to be liked and cared for#okay Im quite emotional now I think I will explode#harry's rants

Having spent years obsessing over Namor and reading/learning all I can about the characters means when someone speaks of a specific thing then I usually have it tucked away in some corner and just pull out a comic panel or link and go “SO THIS?” and it’s just very fun to be able to share stuff with other fans and then they bring up interesting points and ideas and it’s so great.
#i love#namor nation#so much#its so fun to chat in the discord and around on sm with my friends#my ramblings#mutuals my beloved

Given current world events...
Its probably time to give online security more consideration and care. While it's likely any Russian cyber attacks will focus on infrastructure and companies, we as denizens of the internet at large are not immune to untargeted attacks, or attacks on our workplaces. (and yes, even small companies get targeted.)
For the bulk of us, our interactions with cyber security likely boil down to NordVPN ads, maybe 2FA authentication, and an otherwise daunting and unintelligible swathe of information from the kind of people who run servers in their house for funsies. In light of this, I just want to throw out a few tips, suggestions, and anecdotes. Nothing comprehensive- adhd is a hell of a drug, and my security knowledge base is far more theoretical than it is practical.
As my husband (a techno wonder nerd) likes to say, Don't Click The Link.
If you get an email, chat, DM, or see a fun link on a post (or worse, in a tweet or other SM site that truncates and obfuscates the link) don't click it. Yes, even that one. Even the one I will later put on this very thread.
Fake websites can be constructed to look exactly like your Facebook log in page, or PayPal, and clever (and not so clever) links can take you there unawares to steal your information. If you get an email to update your PayPal, go to PayPal in your browser or app, or Google the site or what have you. Don't. Click. The. Link.
Even from friends, as we've seen happening often on discord lately.
There are a few ways to determine if links are legitimate, but to be honest with you I often ask my husband to confirm when I find something fishy, because I am not a topic expert. Your best bet as an average person that doesn't have 6 servers in her bloody master closet is to simply not interact.
If you do feel the need to interact, examine the link itself to ensure that the website is spelled correctly and be cognizant of where it takes you- does anything feel off? Is it asking for information? If you think something doesn't feel right abandon ship.
The next most important thing I want to stress is password management. I know we've all beat this horse to death, but it's important and I often see people who are less than diligent about it.
Personally, I've got a really shit memory and a million online accounts so memorizing passwords for all of them is impossible. Use a password manager. I use Lastpass (https://www.lastpass.com/), as it's free, had browser integrations, an app, and has a good security history. Then you only need to remember one password, and when you need to create or update a password you can generate a random string through lastpass. If you get a last pass, DO NOT USE A PREVIOUS PASSWORD FOR YOUR MASTER PASSWORD. If those sites are or have ever been compromised you could potentially be giving someone the keys to the metaphorical kingdom. Consider using something like correcthorsebatterystaple (https://www.correcthorsebatterystaple.net/) to generate an easily memorable, secure new password for lastpass.
Don't use the same password on multiple sites, that's how Facebook hacks become somebody hacking into your bank account and your secret porn site log in. I know we’re all bad about this, I still have about 100 passwords floating around that lastpass is yelling at me to go update because they’re repeated or weak. It’s an absolute pain in the dick to change them all, but commit a little time each day to hit a few sites, or do them as you log in and save that information to lastpass. I’m paying for my previous complacency now. Don’t be me.
Additional upshot to lastpass- if you pay for the family plan you can opt to share certain passwords that update automagically. If you use the freebie version you can still share them, but you share them as a static password and any updates must be sent manually.
It's all a pain in the ass, I know, but this is the reality of the world you live in and interact with. You lock your front door when you get home, password security is the same thing except you put your credit card information in a lot more places online.
-- Do not send sensitive data via email, messengers, discord, or apps. I deal with this every day at work and it drives me mad.
A customer chats us or emails us that their card info got stolen and here's our new card information in plain text. Seriously you'd be safer handing your credit card to someone on the street and asking them to not spend it while you take a piss. Your email hits HUNDREDS of servers on its way from point a to b and you do not know what has or has not been compromised or is intentionally skimming that information as it passes, and you have no idea when or if the recipient might get hacked (because somebody clicked the link). I’m here to tell you first hand, most companies have shit internal security policies and employees who do not understand the risks. I have worked in this department 6 years, spent countless hours educating and correcting my immediate coworkers on security concerns, and I STILL have coworkers that set ‘temporary’ passwords for customer accounts and then sends them the password in plain text. Likely hundreds of those accounts have the same password because Brenda in Billing either doesn’t give a shit or wont listen and the company itself has no formal information security policy.
Discord, whatsapp, snapchat, and any other online messaging platform is a third party who's security you cannot verify and whos employees likely include multiple people who will never understand the Don't Click The Link memo. Do not trust a third party vendor to keep your information secure. Your best bet is an encrypted service like Signal (Phone app) if you absolutely need to share that information, or a phone call to the recipient.
------------------------------
Lastly, my friends and friendlets, I want to very lightly touch on the concept of Social Engineering. It’s an interesting topic and well worth a look around on youtube if it catches your fancy. (defcon tends to post videos from their conventions and this topic is oft among them)
In a nutshell, social engineering is using social pressures and expectations to trick your way into places you shouldn’t be without aggressive tactics. One of those places is often your trust. This is how that discord hack worked- a friends account got hacked and the hacker would then message you, moonlighting as a friend (implied trust) and send you a link. This is your friend, so you click the link and suddenly you find yourself locked out of your account, or your information stolen and your now hacked account messages another friend, and the cycle continues.
This happens plenty IRL as well, and pretty much any opsec person worth their salt is going to say your first line of security in a company are your employees. In this case, your company is you, and it is up to you to be your first line of defense. If you see something amiss, raise the alarms. If you see someone in your workplace that you don’t know or isn’t wearing a badge, contact security. Complacency is the magic bullet for nearly all cyber attacks, and it’s up to you to be standing behind bulletproof glass.
Keep Ukraine and it’s people in your minds and your hearts as this situation unfolds, and keep yourself as safe and secure as you possibly can.
#Ukraine#cyber secuirty#online security#lastpass#social engineering#hackers#scams#dont click the link#PSA#also NORDVPN got bought out recently by and extremely sketchy company#forgive the formatting i wrote this on my phone and then came back to format on desktop and ran out of energy#Feel free to send an ask about other security topics if you want#I'm no wizkid but I know a decent amount and have extensive husband resource capital

5 years of the PokémonJesus
Before the night comes to a close, I would like to personally reflect on today’s importance (thus the reason for the Takeover queue). It’s been 5 years since I officially became engaged with this fandom that has really became a weekly routine of mine when new episodes come out. This is really just to put my thoughts out there in the blog archive, so I would prefer if no one reblogs this. P J’s beginnings started all the way back with Serebii Forums...
2013-2014 (The Pokémon forums Era)
I have been lurking in the fandom as early as the Best Wishes days, and often visit sites like Serebii Forums or tumblr’s Pokémon anime tags around 2011. I usually talk Pokémon online when it comes to the games when battling or trading in certain chat rooms (was really active during the Gen. IV era of games), but never really talked about the anime with. I have been a spectator to the discussion while the BW saga was rolling a long, then I decided on September 26th 2013 (which was the airdate for the final BW! episode in Japan) to create a serebiiforums account under the username PokemonJesus123, just in time for the start of the XY series which I was mad hyped about! I WAS A FAN SINCE DAY 1...some y’all just tagged along in XY&Z NO LOYALTY xD . My serebii profile is still there actually, so you can try to find my old inactive page if you want lol (my avatar was me holding up my 3DS in a cringey way...looking back why tf did I take that photo lol delete later). Coming into 2014, I joined tumblr as well under the url name you see right before you. Never changed it, and probably never will. The origin of this name you ask? You’ll just have to ask me personally for that story 😉 I absolutely joined tumblr out of pure boredom to view and follow blogs I was a fan of. I had no intention of posting whatsoever. Oh, and I made a Twitter account under the P J name too! Follow ME :^)
2014-2015 (Thursday LIVE! tumblr era)
After a couple months of finally creating a tumblr account and actively posting on serebiiforums and bulbagarden, XY episode 50 (the episode where big lips Nini/Nene debuted) was the first EVER Pokémon anime episode I ever posted about in my blog. I was still new the #pokeani tag (funny story, I didn’t really knew what it meant back then besides to tag it lol), but I got as much as around 30-100 notes. Seeing those notes already got excited that it pushed me from making it a weekly thing since I had a livestream to watch it every Thursday night and screen-cap it. My goal from the very beginning was to try to be the first one to post about here, like what the Japanese fans do on Twitter under the #Anipoke tag. Of course, most of my notes came from either an AmourShipping post or a Serena post. I’m not going to lie, I was really a huge Serena fan when the series first started. I rambled a lot too getting hyped for Citron/Clemont episodes because he was probably my favorite character at the time xD
2015-2016 (A growing blog)
This was the era I started to do special long posts in celebration with Pokémon’s 20th anniversary. Around this period is where my blog was in a developing state getting like 2 or 3 followers every week. And trust me, there were A LOT of posts that I regret posting, but I learned to watch my words every week and say the right things (I really try not to trigger anyone here). I took a couple of weeks off when new episodes aired since I was really busy with college, or I wasn’t into XY filler episodes that much. Would usually tune in live when Team Flare was involved or anything with Squishy/Puni-chan (I absolutely ADORED Bonnie/Eureka in this arc), but I didn’t post that much on tumblr...unless if there was like an AmourShipping moment that happened xD. The hype for Gen. VII was already looming, and I kinda got bored from the anime A BIT. When Ash-Greninja came into the picture however, I got excited again! Then the Kalos League happened, and the anticipation of Ash’s journey hit a climax! We all know what happened, and the rest was history...
2016-2017 (GIFmaking era)
So the Sun & Moon anime happened late 2016, and the hype for a new series was within me again! This is when my blog REALLY started to boom, as well as the birth of my Pokémon Discord server PokéTōku. My notes were higher than over compared to what I posted from XY. One possible reason is that a lot of pokeani bloggers from back then weren’t really interested in Sun & Moon (probably because of the animation change), so I was one of few who still stayed for the ride and that really benefited my blog’s exposure. I absolutely loved Lillie’s character development, and I also did not expect myself to enjoy Lana/Suiren’s character so much! Brock & Misty’s was a huge highlight for me as well seeing my childhood come to a modern-day Pokémon series. I was surprised to have popular people reblog my stuff that destroys my notifications per second. I was even flattered when popular pokéblogs such as shelgon, corsolanite, chasekip, and a few others followed me. Back then I really wanted to get a lot of notes, but at this point I just wanted to be myself and post screen-caps that I feel like talking about. The series also motivated me to start making GIFs since I finally had access to Adobe Photoshop through my university’s application benefits. Later in 2017, I graduated from college and it gave me more time to improving my blog. Also, can you believe it took me 3 years to get 1,000 followers? If you asked me from day 1, I would have never expected to get that much since I had no idea about tumblr’s audience.
Everyone here knows that my blog doesn’t really follow “traditional” tumblr methods such as tags or making specific posts and what not (since I’m not really that into the tumblr culture lol...I’m just here for fun doing my own thing), but I hope I’ve brought something different to your dash experience 🙃
2017-2018 (Making friends)
From 1,000 to 2,500+ followers the next year. You’d be surprise how small that still is compared to the other popular Pokéblogs that joined tumblr later than me, but I’m still grateful for that number. My hype for movie 20 was crazy! I’d always make a post about it when a new trailer was out. But just like Sun & Moon, not everyone was looking forward to the AU it produced. The Let’s Go games shared the same fate as well since everyone didn’t want another Kanto, but I always defend the things that deserve a chance! I fairly enjoyed movie 20 though, and was the first movie that I posted screen-caps and GIFs for in this blog, even made an experience post about it watching it in the theaters! What’s MOST important to me during this time was actually interacting with some of my followers...or should I say friends now :) Out of the 5 years I’ve been here (not counting serebiiforum peeps I’ve known since 2013), I only recently talked to some of you around 2017. My interactions with people here have been awesome (for the most part at least lol) from sharing interests, geeking out over the anime, sending memes xD and concerns when P J isn’t feeling P J. You know who you are, and THANK YOU for cheering your boy up in times when I needed it despite not telling you about it <3 Going back to PokéAni hype, my next excitement attack was when they announced the Aether Foundation and Ultra Beasts were getting involved in the main story. It really makes up for no Alola movie...but hey we still got 1 year left, so maybe there’s hope?
Despite the brief breaks I took, P J’s activeness in the fandom has reached its highest when I managed the time to do scheduled posts and even started a few mini-blog series this year. Even during stressful times, I always make it an effort to find time and contribute to the fandom. I honestly don’t care if I get any asks because I know who the real homies are ◉‿◉つ A special shoutout as well to all the people that joined my Discord server through this website. I couldn’t have reached 100+ members without some of your blogs ^_^ And to the lurkers out there (I know some of y’all are creepin’ in the shadows of my blog without liking anything), you may not know it but I love you people too ლ(́◉◞౪◟◉‵ლ)
Anyway this is just a summary of my journey here so far, and if you’d to hear a more in-depth story on some toxic things I’ve experienced in this fandom just message me. I personally don’t like venting out stuff in public because it just promotes more negativity, and I’m not about that. I will make a separate post on my feelings toward the schedule change maybe next week, and an appreciation post (5th tumblr blogaversary) for my specific followers January 2019. I am still preparing for that because there are so many people (even ones I don’t even talk to) I want to thank ❤ Moving forward into my 6th year, I probably won’t make another post like this anytime soon...but I am very hopeful for the future of the SM series and possible Gen. 8 anime late 2019. I also do plan on making some PokéAni-related stuff in my YouTube channel when the time is right, and have the resources to do projects. Keep your eyes out fam 👀LET’S F’N GO!
