ngl I'm absolutely disgusted by and done with the spam asks supposedly from Palestinians. I don't know or, honestly, care if they are "vetted" or if they're just scams. All I know is they drop super triggering material in my inboxes, unasked for and unblocklistable.
Can we please kill this entire bullshit way of fundraising? I'm begging y'all to stop ever posting them. Make this absolutely useless as a way of outreach.

i feel like a jerk for this because it's people in need but I'm the other hand it's hard to check tumblr knowing I'm gonna feel like shxt because people. Aren't doing the basic thing of reading an all-caps blog description and respecting the boundaries laid out in said blog description. Especially when my ask button was labeled "read blog description" and.

hi how are you? If requests are still open can I request headcanon for Transformers Prime? (predaking, shockwave and megatron) with a reader who is literally a dragon? The reader has kept a Cybertronian relic for a long time.
Megatron, Shockwave, and Predaking with a Dragon! S/O
a/n: sorry for taking an ungodly amount of time to get to this, hope you like it!
wanna support me? donate to kofi!
tags: GN reader, dragon reader, robot x monster/dragon relationship, reader isn't suggest to be a human at all. reader isn't described to be verbal but assume they have a way to communicate, dragon hoards, fighting, mention of blood and animal death(just hinted), romance!!!!
ヾthis is a multi-fandom blog that is designed for mlm/nbmlm identifying readers! so if you're female or fem, she/her, she/they please do not follow or interact with my mlm related post!! you will be blocked if you do not heed this warning ゛
Tumblr media
Megatron —
finds you fascinating, often he can find himself just staring. taking in your beauty and the power the radiates off of you.
of course, he'd like to have you fight for his cause. an advantage for one, and he simply loves seeing you fight.
he'd love to have you train with him. That would depend on your size, though. he knows better than to try to fight. that would be roughly the same size as his ship. (He's a sore loser when he loses btw.)
beware, he might treat you like a pet if he had you at his feet while he pet the rough skin and scales alongside your body. he may accidently go onto a power trip with you
however, feel more than free to put him back in his place. you're much stronger than him at the end of the day
When you show him your hoard, he's intrigued. He views it as a trophy room, like the one he once had from his gladiator days.
If the relic isn't useful to him, he'd let you keep it, but if it is, he will take it from you, regardless of your protest.
Shockwave —
of course, he takes a scientific interest in you. collects your scales you shed, examines your claws, and likes to scale just how strong your fire is and a lot of other things.
His sharp claws are perfect for preening, especially in the stubborn hard to reach places. while he doesn't admit it and claims he only does it to collect them, shockwave finds it very relaxing.
he wouldn't bother trying to fight you, he'd however would like to fly with you. moslty flying out to places that have predacon fossils or lost Cybertronian relics.
he likes to observe how you fly with or against the winds, taking down notes as your body adjusts to flying in high or low altitudes.
When you showed him your hoard, he was indifferent. he saw no point in hoarding objects that wouldn't benefit you.
as he looked around your domain, he picked up and fiddled with some items that he was interested in.
upon finding the relic he asks to take it, if you say no, he'll simply scan the core things he needs from it and leave it there, but if you say yes, he'll have a ball. he might give it back to you once it served it's purpose.
Predaking —
at first, he'd thought of you as a threat. somone who would take his place as a king. it wasn't until he, of course, grew closer and got to know you were he dropped these thoughts.
if your size is similar or doesn't have a very drastic difference, he'd love to spar or play fight with you.
he has no way to consume animals, but he'd love to go hunting with you or watch you hunt, to say the least. finds the way you move with such grace and precision is simply amazing to him.
he likes the difference between his metal and your scales. Feeling your body up against his is an odd sensation but very much welcomed. he's godly at preening your scales and would do anytime anywhere.
flying with you is one of his favorite pastimes with you. he most definitely tries to show off his flight capability as well, doing a wide variety of tricks and flips.
courting dancing/flights are a must. he's unfamiliar with his, but they're so engraved into his(the former kings)muscle memory that he'd remember as he went on with the courting.
when you respond with a dance of your own, he's smitten 10x again. Likes to learn your dance if you'd teach him.
also during courting and even after or before he likes bringing you gifts. Random trinkets he thinks you'd find joy in having.
upon being introduced into your hoard his is amazed. It was one of the most beautiful places he has seen.
unless the relic relates to him, he wouldn't bother doing anything with it, simply leaving it there alone unless shockwave may request it.

That post you made about Harry Potter and how to not financially support and fund the franchise and put more money in Joanne's pockets felt like a lie because I swear I got the impression that even that wasn't allowed when the whole thing started
To be clear; I stopped. Completely. I compartmentalized it all and just stopped interacting with anything Harry Potter online whatsoever. But I always wished it would be fine to still be able to do certain fandom things without supporting her, but people were saying that even using the tag or reading the fanfiction or making fanart was still supporting the ip and not letting it die completely as a topic on the internet was indirectly putting money in her pockets.
It wasn't until I came across a post from a queer woman from somewhere in the global south with heavy OCD and intrusive thoughts or something like that, commenting on how hostile of a thing it became for someone of her affliction; the way people were treating it like do or die. Pointing out that no matter how much trans people and allys cut off their support of her, she has other large means of income that we won't be able to touch, and there will still always be transphobic homophobic Harry Potter fans that will continue to support her actively, putting that money in her pockets. Another thing she mentioned was the treatment of Harry Potter and Joannes bigotry in contrast to the treatment of FNAF and the creators bigotry. And lastly something about the USAmericanized nature of it? I don't really remember that part but I think I understood it at the time I read it (maybe it was something about all the other countries the IP is popular in who are probably more conservative and unaware or caring of the issues with her who will still put money in her pockets, or maybe it was something about American fans fixating and posing the support of her as the ultimate battlefield of Trans Rights to other queer and trans individuals trying to be quiet fans who are facing Much Worse in their countries)
Anyways after that I briefly started reading ao3 fanfic again, just put a filter for anything before 2019 or so, and then my interest more gently fizzled out.
I can't remember what my point is anymore, maybe just to bring these arguments to your attention(also I am not arguing against the financial boycott or ending of support for this woman through her ip).
Harry Potter will never stop earning money. That's just the flat reality of it; I mean, look at the likes of Elvis and the original Sherlock Holmes books and every other 'dead' media that's still earning money. Short of making Harry Potter an illegal piece of media, yes, there will still always be a number of people giving her money.
The goal is to give her less money. To turn Harry Potter from a prominent, profitable cashcow into a defunct piece of media that only select groups are still clinging to. To make it so that JK Rowling has to choose between paying her bills and funding anti-trans movements.
When something stops bringing in a certain amount of profit, studios start looking elsewhere. When a cashcow starts drying up, they stop trying to milk it as hard. Which in turn means less productions for JK Rowling to collect her pocketmoney from.
What would you rather; JK Rowling getting $100,000 or JK Rowling only getting $10,000?
Something is better than nothing. Damage reduction is better than open exposure. If everyone just rolled over and gave up because "things will keep happening anyway" the world will literally be a rancid, fetid wasteland of bigotry and violence.
I'd much rather watch JK Rowling fizzle out into a bitter old wench sustained only by the dogged support of other stubborn bigots than watch people willingly disregard and condone bigotry because its "easier" and "she'll be a bigot anyway."
I'd much rather JK Rowling only have $10,000 to donate to shitty movements over $72,000. Shitty movements can do a lot less with a lot less money.

i am sick to bastard fucking death of shofarsogood (tw for anti arabism and islamophobia) (& a guest appearance of a klansman for some fucking reason)
i think this post is a little funny, and i will give you the context to see why
Tumblr media
ID: A post by @xclowniex, reblogged by @shofarsogood:
“I really need goyim to listen to the whole "if 9 people sit at a table and then one nazi sits at that table and no one tried to remove the nazi, then there are 10 nazis at the table"
I have lost my entire irl friend group due to antisemitism, and whilst correlation doesn't equal causation, so im not saying anything as 100% fact, however there is mad correlation between levels of being antisemitic and closeness with a specific person.
I can't be bothered to turn it into a physcial graph but in my head, oo babie is it a strong graph”

we should all be familiar with prismatic-bell at this point, but here’s a quick reminder
Tumblr media
ID: Post by @prismatic-bell, dated 13 may 2021:
"Free Palestine" IS an antisemitic statement.
It comes with the idea that Palestinians are the only people who have an ancient homeland here, and that Jews are to blame for "taking it over." When they destroyed our temple and put a mosque right on top of it! And then they claim we don't belong there!
"Free Palestine" is a shorthand way of saying you hate Jews. Because it ignores history and, almost without variation, is used as an excuse for antisemitic crimes.”

So FUCK Ramadan. If this is how our holidays are treated, y'all can feel the same.”

like. there are so many “don’t call me zionist” people who follow and interact with shofarsogood. i don’t think you get to find yourself offended by people calling you a zionist if this is who you are mutuals with, & therefore mutuals-in-law with @prismatic-bell and @spot-the-antisemitism.

these guys’ whole entire deal is cherry picking examples of people being antisemitic and using that to try and delegitimise the whole antizionist & pro Palestine movement through some attempt of “guilt by association”. all while freely and guiltlessly associating with people like @some-israeli-guy

End ID
like what do you even say to that.
a lot of this checking blog stuff i learned to do when it was much more common for cryptoterfs to be prowling around these parts. cryptoterfs won’t say transphobic slurs and they won’t openly advocate for the death of all transfems and forceful detransition of all transmascs, but they have no qualms about following people who do, while they avoid reblogging anything hateful enough that will get them easily clocked as radfems or terfs. hell, maybe they don’t even personally believe those things, maybe they’re trying to “see both sides of things”. maybe they don’t care at all and follow those blogs for entirely unrelated things and that’s why they won’t reblog any of the hate speech.
does it matter?
at the end of the day, whatever their internal motivations may be, they don’t disagree enough with the absolutely horrendous levels of transmisogyny and transphobia to see it as a dealbreaker
parallels parallels parallels
speaking of which, the way these people blog also mirrors the way that many radfems will blog. we all know the style, the “dig up some fucking joe nobody transgender person saying something stupid or lesbophobic/misogynistic & use that to paint the whole movement in a bad light”
“oh but isn’t that what you’re doing right now?” prismatic-bell hasn’t been the bane of tumblr for years just for you to call xir a joe nobody. i could pull up a joe nobody with 3 followers who says things about palestine that i wouldn’t repeat with a gun to my head, but that’s not what this is about
this is about some incredibly popular blogs on here that are either violently hateful towards palestinians, or they are mutuals with those people and don’t see that as enough of a problem to even unfollow let alone block & denounce them.
anyway i can’t link links in the original post but i have a lot of receipts reblogged to @disgustingechoes feel free to have a peruse if you are unconvinced

Signs that a scam might be run by Laura Deramas & her common behaviors:
So as we know, that despite making herself famous as one of the most deranged, notorious scammers & perpetual liars on tumblr, its likely that Laura Deramas hasn't actually gone away, and is likely running several scams at any given moment at tumblr, as she's admitted to running multiple (on both twitter AND tumblr) not long ago. With these, we've seen her frequently have the same patterns of behavior on pretty much all of her scams, be it when she's using her own name & face, or someone else's (& she frequently uses other Filipinos' info, but she has racefaked or pretended to be different sexualities/genders/ethnicities multiple times as well).
So with that in mind, in addition to the usual red flag lists for scammers (ex: new blog suddenly asking for money, spamming asks, turns off /hides replies, changes url multiple times suddenly, etc), below are some common red flags to look for in "donation" posts/blogs that indicate this blog is likely a scam and specifically being run by Laura for the following behaviors:
She tries to send you a video or photos of some kind of a flood, a fire, or an old house in poor condition, but usually there's no proof that this is HER or her family's house, that it's HER footage, that it's not old, or that she actually lives there, and she never shows her (or the posters', whoever she's pretending to be) face. This means that the footage is most likely stolen, she isn't actually affected by that situation, & she's trying to pass it off as her own footage.
Uses the phrase "please, sir/maam" a lot. And i don't just mean saying "maam" to women & then "sir" to men, I mean as in sending everyone an ask/message with the phrase, quote, "sir/ma'am" unquote regardless of your gender
Is new to tumblr but somehow knows exactly which popular users to ask to reblog their donation posts, and usually they're Black. They may also target people who were previously victims of Laura's scams.
The user asks you to talk off of tumblr, especially if it's facebook.
The user is reluctant to give out their paypal and doesn't list it on their donation post. They may also use a knockoff fundraising site.
She starts showing you photos of things like a sad family or broken down house unprompted (or on her sockpuppet scam accounts, she uses stolen photos specifically instead) and starts talking about how much she's "suffering", often even if you've never interacted with her on her blog. She does this to manipulate people into feeling bad for her and will often repeatedly harass people this way.
She uses the ❤😩 😭🥺🙏 emojis approximately 50,000 times every sentence. Obviously that's a bit of an exagerration, but her scams DO use these a LOT. Her tumblr asks tend to also use a combination of these specific emojis when asking people for money or to reblog their donation post/scams, especially the crying & praying emojis.
Asks you to make or boost a donation post for her on other sites like twitter or instagram
Will allege that she can't speak English very well, but is only using English for her donation posts. She uses this lil nugget a lot in her other scam personas where she's pretending to be someone else, including ones she's literally admitted to. Laura can actually speak English very well. She's also used this even for accounts where her scamsona allegedly speaks a language that is widely spoken & has their own large presence on tumblr (like French or Arabic), so it doesn't make sense that someone who apparently has a lot of trouble with English ONLY uses English for their posts and ONLY follows English speaking users, & will sometimes use a shitty google translate if soneone who's a Native speaker in that language tries to talk to her in that language.
Might say something like "if you have any questions, ask me!" But then as soon as you ask questions that question whether or not its a scam, even if you ask very nicely or don't outright imply you think she's a scammer, (or even ask like. ANY question at all), instead of answering any questions or addressing any allegations or proof she's not genuine, instead she'll redirect, self victimize, and say that you're "attacking" her, and never actually provide any answers to the questions she said she was open to answering.
If you call her out, she'll keep insisting she's not lying, even if you have very explicit, hard proof that she's lying and that you know where she's stolen the "proof" documents from (like vet bills or xrays) or that her information is incorrect. If shes pretending to be someone else & is using someone else's photos and you say you know its actually her (Laura), even if you show HARD evidence that it's a Laura sockpuppet scam account, she'll continue lying and acting as if she doesn't know what youre talking about. She's done this with scams she later admitted to running.
Below under the cut is tactics/behaviors Laura usually displays when she's either been caught, or she's openly using her own name & face. Her scam sockpuppet accounts might do some of these things too, but the ones below are a bit more specific to when she's been caught, has admitted to lying and admits she is Laura behind the account, and/or when she's using her own name and face.
Might bring up her neighbors if you catch her in a lie and say something like "my neighbors will kill me" or being afraid of her neighbors & using that as some kind of excuse related to the lie/scam
If you catch her in a lie, she might say some story about "the police" or something along the lines of "the police" raiding her home or being afraid they will, and she usually brings this up to beg you not to tell other people she's scamming (she's used this story at least 4 different times and she's never been arrested or had any run in with police.) She's counting on people not knowing a lot about the Phillipines or its geography unless you live there (& this is a predominantly American site), so if she makes some claim about a law in the Phillipines, and it sounds wild, look it up, there's a good chance she's bullshitting you.
she'll start begging you to talk to her family via facebook, and specifically facebook, to "prove" shes not lying (note that her family knows she scams & is in on it, and several of her friends are also scammers on here, so they're there to backup her bullshit, but in cases where she's pretending to be someone else, it's likely one of her scammer friends pretending to be the family members of her scam persona to look more legitimate). She doesn't do this as much on her sockpuppet accounts, but if she does also take it to be suspicious.
If caught and Laura admits to it, she might try to discredit scam busters, specifically me, Kyra45, or mangocheesecakes by saying something along the lines of us allegedly being "bullies" or "targeting her for no reason" or that we are "racist" & alleges we only accused her of scamming because she is Filipino (this is incorrect, we accused her of scamming because we have hard proof she is a scammer & has been doing this for at least 3 years, and mangocheesecakes is also Filipino. Laura being Filipino is incidental.). Obviously her goal in doing this is to victimize herself and demonize us with the hopes that people will not believe us, and will donate to her now or her future scams. You're free to be skeptical of us, but if not us then you can ask the dozens of other people Laura has manipulated, harassed, and tricked into helping her to see that shes a serial liar, scammer, and a bully.

Call me Meg, any pronouns.
I’m a white usamerican and do not speak Arabic, I do not verify fundraisers. A lot of folks in Gaza have reached out to me recently asking to share their campaigns, and so I’m trying my best to honor their requests and confirm the ones that have been vetted. My following isn’t exactly huge, but the friends I’ve made here have been extremely kind and generous in helping me when I’ve been in dire financial straits and I hope that they will extend the same generosity to the people of Gaza 💙
I’ve been talking daily with @lailashaqoura for a while and so it would especially mean a lot to me if my followers would follow her account and donate to/share her campaign:
If you’re a liberal who wants to send me an ask or respond to my posts about voting blue or Zionism or something to “debate” me, I’m not going to bother responding unless you attach a receipt for a donation to Laila’s campaign or I’m blocking you immediately. Add an image description to your receipt also. I’m not kidding.
Other fundraisers
Here’s a running list of verified users in Gaza who have reached out to me on my side blog, @vetted-gaza-funds!
Other tags on this blog where you can find fundraisers:
My general Palestine tag
My “asks” tag (this is where you’ll find the fundraisers of people who have reached out to me personally, I always try to link to verification from trusted users so that people won’t feel hesitant to reblog)
My donation match tag (this is where I post who I’m donating to every payday and encourage ppl to match my donations)
Palestinian users who are verifying campaigns (that I’m aware of):
el-shab-hussein
nabulsi
90-ghost
Other Palestinian users whose judgment I trust (but afaik they’re not personally verifying campaigns so do not ask them to do so):
fairuzfan
ibtisams
fallahifag
palipunk
Note: please interact respectfully with these users. They are doing these verifications and communicating with literally hundreds if not thousands of people in Gaza on a volunteer basis, in spite of literally deadly levels of stress. If you come from my blog and are even slightly disrespectful to anyone on this list I will hit you with a car.
Master lists of other vetted campaigns:
el-shab-hussein’s master list of master lists
fallahifag’s daily donation lists
google spreadsheet created by nabulsi/el-shab-hussein
Other sites where you can find verified funds:
gazafunds.com
Operation Olive Branch
Strawberry Seed Collective
Other:
A list of users who have reached out to me but who I could not find verification for. If anyone has any kind of link to a verification of these users please let me know so I can add them to my list!
If you want to send a campaign my way to add to my list on behalf of someone else, some things that would be helpful to me:
Please keep in mind that I cannot share fundraisers that have not been verified in some way. I am not Palestinian nor an Arabic speaker and have no way of verifying for myself what is or isn’t legitimate. If you send me an unvetted fundraiser, I will do my best to search regularly to see if anyone has vetted it in the future and share later if so, but that’s the best I can do.
If it has been verified but is not included in this spreadsheet, a link to the verification would be massively helpful.
If it’s a campaign that is on the Operation Olive Branch spreadsheet, please let me know where on the spreadsheet I can find it
If it’s from gazafunds.com, please show me a screenshot and/or a link where I can see the campaign featured on the website

WAYS TO HELP PALESTINE!
daily click: arab.org
donate esims: gazaesims.com
care for gaza: gofundme.com/f/careforgaza
donate feminine hygiene kits: piousprojects.org/campaign/2712
call for a ceasefire: ceasefiretoday.com
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
1. BOYCOTT - Starbucks and McDonald’s have both said boycotts hurt them. Boycotting literally costs no money. Find some local alternatives and make things at home!
2. DO YOUR DAILY CLICK! This is literally free and still gives money to help Palestine! It resets every day (maybe even every 2 hours) so click away!
3. EDUCATE YOURSELF! This can help because you’re more aware of what’s happening, and that means you can also educate others by knowing more about what’s going on!
4. BOOST PALESTINIAN POSTS. Palestinian people have said that sharing their voices about Palestine is helping. Post and share everything you see. Especially verified accounts because they make money off of it! It’s like donating without spending money. In the same light, DO NOT GIVE PLATFORMS TO ZIONISTS! Follow Palestinian accounts. Boost them, share them, give them a big platform. Tell others to follow them. Interact with them! Give them a voice!
5. SIGN PETITIONS! it takes less than a minute per petition, it’s free, and you can do it on your phone while watching TV (which Palestinians can’t do). And it helps.
6. SPREAD THE WORD! talk to your friends, families, educate them about what’s happening, and if you can, maybe convince them to donate! Lots of people still don’t even know what’s happening or which side they’re on, so explain it to them and let them know what’s real or propaganda
7. If you’re an artist, make some art for Palestine. If you’re not an artist, retweet Palestine art. This helps people see all of it and make more people aware of what’s happening. If you can find some, buy art that profits go to Palestine.
8. DON’T STOP TALKING ABOUT PALESTINE !
© @/kindbutclever @kindbutclever
if we cannot stop injustice, we must speak up about it. spread awareness and use your platforms. CALL FOR A CEASEFIRE!

Ok. So.
I was checking my notifications and I found an anonymous ask. I’m not going to respond to it directly as a response but I am going to post it here via an image, and respond from there.
Tumblr media
First of all: I assume this is about me saying not to send me donation asks. I have explicitly stated that I cannot help these people who send me these asks. I literally cannot help, and my posting of them would do absolutely nothing. I know people need these posts to survive, I know that! I cannot help! I need these people to send their asks elsewhere! I cannot help them! And I feel really bad for deleting them! But I cannot help! I really wish I could! But I can’t!
Secondly: trans men do not have privilege over any other gender group simply on the basis that they are trans men. I am not arguing this again. And if you disagree with that, and are only going to debate and insult me, please, kindly, get off of my blog. I am not debating with people who are not willing to have a discussion or civil conversation. So if you cannot either keep that belief to yourself or discuss it politely and in a civilized manner, do not, for the love of everything, interact with me, especially on that subject. I try not to block people. If you can be civil and polite and open to new ideas, you can interact, but I am not going to let someone insult me, on my blog, and be fine with it. You may stay if you are willing to be civil, but please, I’m begging you, do not harass me. Do not insult me. I don’t care what your beliefs are, generally, if you are willing to Not Talk About Them In Situations Where Someone Could Get Hurt For No Reason. However, if you tell me stuff like this, I do not respect you, especially because it’s an anon ask.
Thirdly: I hate h*zbin h*tel. I hate it, I hate v*vziepop , I hate h*lluva b*ss, I hate everything that has to do with her. Again, if you enjoy her stuff and are not defending her or her horrible writing, then you can stay. I don’t care if you post fanart of her characters, not my problem, unless you harass people about it. Be civil, please. But I do not support v*vzie. At all.
Fourthly: ??? What does this mean?? I have a very nice life, and I’m not “cowering”??? Whatever that means??? I have really no comment on this part because it really doesn’t make sense to me.
I hope I explained everything well, I really tried to get my point across the way I wanted to.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Tumblr media
- About me -

This is my main blog, I post here multiple times a day, and I interact with a lot of fandoms. This is where I rant about my opinions, talk to my friends, and talk about literally whatever I want. I reblog a lot too.

Quite frankly some of y’all are getting too parasocial again, especially with the ‘LGBTQSMP’ stuff. By y’all, I mean the fandom at large, but don’t think I haven’t seen some weird stuff on here too.
Last night on Quackity’s stream, one of the first donos called him a “fruit loop”. And like okay, whatever, that’s bad, but then I managed to find the dono’s twitter literally by accident going through my twitter feed and here’s their reason why they did it:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And that’s really fucking weird! You all see why this is weird, right? And all of the replies to the clip of the dono I found (where I found this person) were all in agreement that this was a funny and totally normal thing to do. But, as I’m sure everyone is aware, this is not, in fact, normal. It’s parasocial as fuck, and it’s weird at best and harassment at worst.
Donation etiquette posts are something that go around the fandom every couple of days, and for good reason. Some people are too goddamn parasocial. You don’t know these people, and they don’t know you. It’s like if you walk up to the cashier at McDonalds and call them a “fruit loop” because you saw her talking to another girl earlier. That’s fucked up. At best, it’s fucking weird to do. At worst, it’s outing/harassment. (Not that I think Quackity is queer or anything, that’s none of my business, and it’s not anyone else’s.)
I’ve seen some weird stuff on Twitter recently. Truthing, really, and that’s something parts of this fandom have struggled with for a really long time. But take this tweet by the same person as above as an example:
Tumblr media
There’s a difference between jokes about “haha the qsmp is just a gay dating show and jaiden”, but some people are taking that way too literally. I’ve seen truthing on both the English side and Spanish side of the community recently, and you know that I’m not searching it out for the sake of drama because I don’t speak Spanish. I’ve seen multiple Spanish accounts on Twitter telling people to stop being weird in chat because it’s gotten to the point there that the mods are getting involved (I was watching Roier’s stream last night, and I’m pretty sure I saw this myself in chat.)
Jokes are fine. Fandom jokes are fine. But that’s where the jokes should stay- in the fandom. Yes, Quackity made a joke on day one stumbling over his words and “accidentally” calling everyone his boyfriends. Yes, the Spanish creators are a lot more chill with shipping content than the English ones. That doesn’t mean anything irl. Calling it the first bisexual smp is fine as a fandom joke, but people seem to be considering it truth when, as far as I’m aware, there’s only one actual bisexual on the server, and there’s, I believe, only two LGBTQ+ members. While the default shouldn’t be straight, it isn’t cool to just assume people’s identities, and especially not from what they do in minecraft roleplay. That’s called acting, not real life.
Truthing is dangerous. Anyone older than 16 probably remembers the way Markiplier and Jacksepticeye stopped interacting online entirely, and it’s because truthing and shipping actively damaged their friendship. Dan and Phil struggled with this, too, with them actually being gay but being unable to come out until years after they were popular because of all the truthing going on with them.
It’s dangerous! It’s weird as hell! Not everyone is dnf. Even if their boundaries don’t mention it specifically, it should be common sense not to openly speculate on a cc’s sexuality. It should be even more common sense not to call them a literal slur in their text-to-speech donos because you think it’s “telling the truth”. For a straight person, it’s just uncomfortable. For a queer person not out, it could be dangerous.
As a whole, the fandom has been behaving. We’re just under a week in as of today when I’m writing this, so I guess we’ll have to see what happens next. But please remember to be normal. These people aren’t your friends. You don’t know them. You barely even know their characters right now. So calm down and touch some grass before someone actually gets hurt.

happy disability pride month! please consider helping me take back my life as a disabled person!
the TL;DR is that for the last 3 months i have had an absolutely soul-sucking miserable minimum wage retail job that, due to the way scheduling works (and the app being broken as fuck) has prevented me from having access to literally any of the life-saving mental health/medical care i need as a disabled person.
my disability is best managed through a combination of medication, therapy, and casework-- not a single one of which i have had since march! :) contextually, up until i got this job, i took three daily medications and had casework once a week and therapy once or sometimes twice a week. these services are offered at an affordable cost to me through a local organization that is threatening to close my case due to lack of participation.
ill make another, more detailed post later with some of the services i can offer for money (i draw! i code! i write!) but until then here is a code you can scan if you have a few dollars to spare:
Tumblr media
there are more details beneath the cut (idk about you guys but im kinda nosy so i wrote some more stuff in case anyone else is also nosy) but thats the gist of it. you can also always ask for details. i dont have a therapist right now so it might feel good to say things.
my plan is as follows: i would like to take the month of july more or less "off" from work to get my affairs in order, starting with scheduling appointments for therapy and casework and getting back on my meds. i am actively looking for a job, but i would like the ability to be somewhat picky instead of applying everywhere i think might have me for the sake of having money coming in to pay rent.
for the last two years i have made less than $800/mo and i can survive on roughly $600-$650 a month. my july rent ($550) is paid and my august rent (at least $500) is most likely also squared away, through a combination of some cash i was hoarding, a previous donation, my last expected paychecks from my current job, and my brother generously offering to cover whatever is left over. the extra $100ish is for roughly a months supply of the food that is part of my daily routine that i get cranky without (i have tea every morning, for instance.)
i have a fantastic roommate who is not struggling as much financially who will do everything in her power to make sure i have access to staple foods (rice, eggs, etc) so i really just need to buy the things only i consume (kimchi, milk, etc.) there is a food bank i go to, so i am not worried about food, but i can only go to it once per month. we have a barter system where i trade her the things i dont want from the food bank and she buys me things i will eat; alternatively, i sometimes give her things i get from the food bank (eg meat) that she turns into meals for both of us.
i live independently/"alone" with roommates and do not have support from my family pretty much at all. they have never been particularly useful for emotional support and have openly denied me financial support since i was a teenager. moving in with them/getting help from them/talking to them is not an option.
i have emailed my caseworker at the mental health organization i work with as well as my caseworker with the disability vocational program i work with to help me find a new job that is "back of house" and requires less customer interaction. i did this over the weekend, so i expect to hear back from them sometime this week. in the meantime, i am searching for jobs on my own in places like indeed, jobhat, careerbuilder, etc. as well as checking company websites of places like chain grocery stores to see what is available in my area.
my job pool is a bit limited due to the fact that i cannot drive (due to both my disability and the medication im supposed to be taking for it) but i am very well-versed at taking the bus, which is free. getting to and from work is not a concern for me; it is being able to do the job without being driven to the edge of a mental breakdown that is the problem.
the disability vocational program is my ticket out of poverty! last month i had a follow-up evaluation (i had to call out of work for it, but frankly i was at the end of my rope then too) where they approved my career goals as a web developer and we are in the process of deciding what my next steps are! the program will likely (depending on what route i take) help pay for vocational training, too, but i obviously have to pay rent while in training. which i think i can do if i have a job that doesnt make me want to die.
i have some other things that make my life a bit harder (im mixed race, i am nonbinary + gay, etc) but i would say those things dont really impact my ability to get a job as much as the disability does LOL which is why i did not feature them prominently in this post. like, the reason i cant get a job isnt because people dont want to hire me because i have blue hair and pronouns, its because im obviously disabled.
if you have any other questions, no matter how intrusive you think they might be, feel free to send a DM or an ask, and i will try to answer.

as the general mahamatra, he has mora to spend, far to much time spend on himself.
will totally let you buy(in reasonable quantities) things that will make you feel better and stuff.
this moslty pertains to clothing, he'll shop with you, giving his insight on which clothing would suit you more.
and if the clothes he picks out make you feel you, it's a win-win for both parties.
will not allow anyone to disrespect you, and after he had a stern "talking too" with the person, they won't be bothering you again.
food and cuddles afterwords to make your feel better.
ᴀʟ ʜᴀɪᴛʜᴀᴍ
He also has way too much money to spend. He usually only gets food, his physics books, and other nerdy books he has.
If you like reading, he will totally buy you your books, somehow always finding some of them before they're even released.
Let's borrow his clothes, if they fit. If not, nothing more than a lil' clothes shopping you can't do.
He would not so accidentally try to get you to buy clothing in his style. He'd be thrilled if you do like his choices but won't fight you when you have your personal preferences.
Since most people in sumeru know you're with al haitham, they won't even try to make any snide remarks. and those who do never make it out the same.
ᴅɪʟᴜᴄ
He's literally the owner of one of the largest winery's ever, so he has so much money
Bro would literally buy you racks of clothing and have them each tailored to you.
If you're uncomfortable with having someone else get your measurements, he'll totally do it for you.
Likes when your clothing has a similar style to his, esspically when it comes to colors. He thinks you look absolutely amazing in red.
No one would try messing with you. They know it won't end well.
xɪᴀᴏ
Unlike the others, my man is broke.
He usually gets his clothing from Verr, who somehow managed to get his measurements.
If you happen to have some money, he wouldn't mind coming out and shopping with you.
He isn't the most fond of crowds or people in general. Your best bet is to go when the market isn't super populated.
They don't even try. People just avoid him and you due to his intimidating vibe.

I'm not sure how much this matters any more, because I've been vetting my own stuff and the problem has shifted a bit, but let's talk propaganda and the Palestinian Genocide (and fatigue).
Propaganda is essentially biased information used to influence public opinion. It tends to do this by targeting people emotionally.
Make no mistake. There's a lot of propaganda coming from the IDF (with marginal success... they don't really understand their audience any more and the emotions they're targeting tend to be national pride and righteous rage, both of which they've lost a handle on.) But I've run into a lot of propaganda on the left too.
And the emotion that I've seen a lot of leftist propaganda target when it comes to Palestine (particularly people trying to keep up to date and informed) is guilt.
Personally, I think guilt has limited use. In the right amount it can spur people into action but too much can force people to disengage.
I'm saying this because I've literally seen posts that go "You are directly responsible for this man's death!" and spool out the bloodiest most torturous story about the death of a teenager. You'll also see "don't you dare look away". "The world is doing nothing while Palestine dies", "the world is only watching", etc are also favorites.
And I think that falling for these tactics has the potential to lead to the sort of self-flagellation that we in the US tend to witness most often in the form of White Guilt. Which has the same consequences listed above, it either forces people to act or disengage entirely. And threatens to turn into White Shame, which is the difference between "I feel bad for what happened" which can lead to "how can I fix it", and "I am bad" which leads to spiraling and burnout.
The latter isn't terribly helpful to the Black community. I'm going to surmise that it won't help the Palestinians either.
So, when I felt myself falling into the self-flagellation pit, I started asking myself simple questions: What is the goal of the article I'm reading? What is the purpose of the caption? What is it trying to make me feel? What does it want me to do? What is the purpose of the video? (The answer to the videos, particularly the bloodier ones, is not usually to cause guilt, but rather to document and inform the public of what's happening, in the hopes that someday someone will be held accountable. It bears saying that I refuse to watch them for personal/mental health reasons but you can often get the gist from an article or video description if you wish to stay informed.)
And it's helped a lot. If the goal of a piece is to make me feel guilty, or watch something heinous, I click away. If the purpose of a piece is to inform me (either of the situation or places to donate) I read on. It's also helped me choose what to share, which now tends to center on ways to help, which I find people engage with more meaningfully.
This is all to say, I think it's worth looking up articles on propaganda and how to interact with it, if only to identify it so you can interact with the piece in a healthier manner. Or decide where you want to focus your attention.
