#learn from this

I never intended for there to be any public drama, when I addressed my concerns with the actions of that blog with their co-host. My intentions were to ensure that the Black woman co-host felt comfortable working with someone who has been harmful to the fandom with many of their own posts.

In the latest episode the DMs between the co-host and myself were mentioned several times but only one screenshot of conversation has been made public and that is for a reason. I can post the screenshots of my messages since you know there's no need to hide this interaction anymore and also more damning receipts of the some of the harmful things that person has done on their blog, but up until this point I have kept to myself because that was not my intention.

My intention has always been to protect Black women/people. That includes Ayo, that includes Sydney, and that includes the ones that I am in community with in this fandom. And that protection also extends to any other person who has felt harmed by this person in the fandom. Something that nobody asked me to do. The people that I spoke up for didn't even know that I was speaking because again I didn't do it with the intention of having to address any of this publicly. If I did I would've just come out and said this person is harmful and you should not support them.

So now that I have been called all manners of bitch, sneaky, nasty, and villainized (of course a BW calling out harmful behavior has led to this, like clockwork) I would like to know if the people in this fandom would like me to detail where that person has been harmful, with evidence to support it. Again I never have to speak to this person. Don't want to. I want this place to be SAFE. But if you feel like you want extra context and want to be clear on why this "drama" came to be I can provide it.

All of yall who are sexualizing these boys (and YES that includes the show) are evil as hell. You are sexualizing actors who are portraying two REAL RAPE VICTIM'S STORY. You are calling the actors sexy while they are playing a role that revolves around them being brutally sodomized. They bled and you think it's okay to sexualize them? One was hospitalized for damage to his throat from constant rape and you think it's okay to horny post about them? Never talk about them again. I hope to GOD you never get assaulted and some creep makes an incesty horny show about your story. As Tyra Banks once said, "LEARN FROM THIS"

If the most common arguments to vote for a candidate aren't about their policy, their track record, or what they have to offer you/the country/the world, but are instead all just various forms of 'Votes arent love letters,' 'Lesser evil,' 'Harm reduction,' and 'Do you want Opponent to win?!' that's a real bad sign for that candidate's viability.

Learn from this. Please.

It's my tiny tantrum, picked me up

I'm just escaping what a human did

And God, I live for this

Slow

Cut in two

Cause there's a mean side that picks up the phone

That controls what I do

That kind of seems like an excuse

Just get some structure and a therapist

You need to learn from this

i genuinely think its important to be able to sit in discomfort or shame. like not wallow in it or ignore it, but just be able to go "i was an idiot and now i've learned" or "this sucks" and know that this feeling will lessen but also know u need to use it to guide u away from the same mistakes. just accept as it is but not letting urself get complacent

In appreciating the small things in life we remain grounded, never losing nor forgetting the importance of life’s challenges as we remain in touch with one another to find solutions together

People not comprehending Nosferatu correctly might kill me. Yes it's erotic and about pleasure but yes it's devastating and about child sexual abuse. It's a movie about victimhood, about being already dead, about longing for the great beyond, about never feeling safe from your abuser, about always expecting one more rape must be endured. It is about being an ugly victim, a neurotic victim. About your supposed allies tying you down for fear you will rip their world to ribbons. It is about facing the abuser, facing the pleasure the abuser brought. It is about men seeking to silence a plague in the quiet of the night when grooming and abuse can only be destroyed by pulling it into the light of morning.

I'm absolutely obsessed with Laios' logic that the other shapeshifters made mistakes the real party members were too knowledgeable/careful/wise to make

but for Marcille he's like "only the real Marcille would do something that fucking stupid"

every time some jerk complains about the new minecraft update “not adding any value to the game” i think about that one jschlatt clip where he discovers a lush cave for the first time and is genuinely rendered speechless by its beauty. so much of minecraft’s charm and beauty is exploring and discovering new lands and generation and falling in love with a world that was made for you and to love you

who give a shit if the pale garden doesn’t “add” anything game breaking. it will be worth it for the hundreds of thousands of players who stumble upon it by chance. only a few people will be able to relate to being handed a new op block/mechanism on a platter but everyone remembers the feeling of still being new to minecraft and the wonder of uncovering all its quirks. it’s about the loving the universe for its smallest of features and creatures as the love letters tho humanity that they are not exploiting the universe for all that its worth jackass ‼️‼️‼️

rant under the cut, tw mold mention

ok i dont usually talk abt controversial stuff i really try to avoid it and idk if this counts but godddd i try snd be as good as i can with trigger warnings because. i got jumpscared a while back by a drawing of mold on my dash. wasnt even that realistic. but then it spiraled me into a full on anxiety attack cause it made me think about mold, and that spawned a spiral into ickiness. i hate mold. its disgusting. i requested the person to put a mold tw on their art because they had been so good at if before but they just refused and gave a passive aggressive response about it not being realistic. i just went back into the comments of that post and Still people are requesting a mold tw, and Still it is not added, and i will not name names but jesus christ if someone asks you to put a trigger warning on your art just do it. i would do it in a heartbeat and apologize. i absolutely don’t blame the person involved in this i just don’t like seeing fucking mold and the fact multiple people Very Politely Asked for trigger warnings is disturbing. plus it was maintagged on trending tags. so anyone could find this and freaking throw up. idk this is a rant i might delete later i still love the artist and follow them im just begging people remember to add trigger warnings and always, ALWAYS make sure you add one if it’s explicitly requested by someone. it just means avoiding pointless anxiety and disgust when you could have just spent three minutes adding a new tag to your post 👍
