Alert 🚨: New AVANTASIA album & 2025 tour announcement!

You'll never guess what it'll be about.

This was literally posted several minutes ago. But what dragons?! Why dragons?! Certainly not just to please me... Is this a return to the thematics of The Metal Opera?! Or maybe it was supposed to be an Edguy album, based on the title. We'll know soon.

Anyway, woohoo! New Avantasia!

I'm too lazy to link the Facebook page, so bear with this screenshot I initially made.

#avantasia #tobias sammet #new album #tour announcement #power metal #symphonic metal #the first person to draw a Tobi-inspired dragon will revel in eternal glory #please do it cause I don't think I can

being aromantic is like. hey btw you're going to live a life that is the culmination of most of society's worst nightmares. sorry lol ✌️ but then you turn around and take a really good hard look at it and it turns out that living in that nightmare is fucking awesome and you get to wake up every day and take that fear that other people have and laugh and hold it close until it's a great joy for you instead. and being happy is a radical act that you define instead of someone else. and you're sexy as fuck that's just a fact of life i don't make the rules on that one

#aromantic people are just sexy i'm not making the decisions here it's just facts #course ur hot as fuck. it came free with the aromanticism #being sexy is just default settings for aromantic people 👍#hope this all helps. anyway i'm on my 'i hope i die alone <3 i can't wait to die alone <3' kick rn #i think the existential fear that people have of Not Partnering specifically is so. well.#obviously that shit is strong and it is SO awesome to be free of it.#realizing you're aro and you don't Want a partner can be such a hit to the solar plexus #cause society says that's the only thing that'll make you happy. so either you go without that thing or you force yourself #into doing something you don't want which would make you unhappy anyway.#so you think it's a lose lose situation and you have to come to terms with what amatonormativity presents as the worst possible situation #but then! whoa! turns out personhood is inherently valuable in and of itself and romantic partnering is just a construct!#and that nightmare is now your life to do with as you please... define as you will... structure as you want...#best case scenario. is what i'm saying.#every day i wake up ready to spit all that amatonormative rhetoric back in life's teeth by being alone and being happy #and it's so fucking satisfying. every day.#fucking JUBILANT being by myself. and i love being a living breathing 'fuck you' to the romantic system #you need a partner to be happy? oh that's sooo fucking crazy guess i'll go be miserable then. in my perfect fucking dream life lmao #yeah obviously it's the worst possible outcome on earth to die without a partner. so terrible. can't wait for it :)#aromantic #aromanticism #aro positivity #aroace #arospec #sorry to bitches who are sad about not having a partner. i could not give a fuck though get better soon #you couldn't EVER pay me enough to go back to a mindset in which my inherent value wasn't enough by myself.#FUCK that shit. absolutely miserable and a bad life outlook in general. like genuinely do the work w/ amatonormativity and get better #life is something that can be so fulfilling whether someone wants to kiss you or whatever or not #i'm on antidepressants and i have people i care deeply about. what the fuck would i need a partner for lmao

see like the thing with 'carewhumpers' as a concept to me is it just like... i know this is prrrrobably not really how it's meant but something skeeves me out about the idea that kindness or caretaking mixed in with hurting someone can somehow meaningfully complicate or dilute the harm done to the point of making that character no longer a 'whumper' whereas someone doing the same 'bad' things but not ever being gentle or caring for them would just be a straight-out whumper. when like... that's how 90% of irl abuse dynamics work? so i just... don't really get the point, i guess. like to me it implies something about the 'care' provided somehow mitigating or combating the harm done that. i just do not personally appreciate or enjoy.

#gav gab #just thinking out loud #like i don't think that's 'nuance' or 'grey characters' i think that's just an extremely common and typical dynamic of abuse #someone breaking your nose and then cleaning up the blood and tucking you into bed is not less like #violent or abusive or harmful than someone who just stops at breaking your nose yk #and i think that it can successfully be summarized by any number of other ways?#carewhumper is just not useful or meaningful shorthand to me the way caretaker/whumper/whumpee are #it implies that the word 'caretaker' or 'whumper' encompasses 100% of a person's constant behaviour #in a very flattened and simplistic way #please do not come at me about this im not saying this is how everyone means it this is just #how i personally feel about it #due to the way i approach these words #and im not trying to say anyone CANT write about very typical abusive dynamics #im just saying the elements of like. 'good' behaviour or 'kind' treatment #doesn't make the Bad Part any less real or bad #the way that 'carewhumper' being set as a different or distinct thing than 'whumper' implies to me #i just feel insane whenever i see people using the term tbh like this is probably a me thing #a very stupid distinction to get hung up on #but i just. im always like isn't that just a whumper who's nice sometimes #what is the utility of this word if not to imply that #someone being nice sometimes meaningfully combats how cruel they are other times #what part of 'whumper' means they always have to be violent and awful 24/7 #and do not take this to mean caretakers are never allowed to fuck up #or do anything wrong or get frustrated #or anything like that but that is like #very distinct from being a whumper of any kind at all #like the idea that a 'whumper' can only be 100% a sadist who means to cause harm and intends to cause harm every time is like #cmon now

Stay at home dad and artist on commission Keefe

#kotlc #keeper of the lost cities #keefe sencen #sokeefe #he watches him and sophie's 5 year old little boy and 11 year old girl (she's currently applying for Foxfire) while sophie works #he does his own art pieces along with commissions at home #and the little boy can teleport so he's constantly dropping in on sophie and fitz at their job #(it's related to them being cognates or something idk)#and keefe has a panic attack because he looked away for one second to add a detail to his sketch and now his kid's gone #their kid drops into sophie's arms (or right outside the door of the building she works at)#and sophie gives him an eye roll and a disappointed look for freaking his father out and interrupting her #(he has absolutely appeared when she was in a super important meeting)#this is all based on the assumption that elves don't have some kind of basic schooling before foxfire or other schools like it #when he appears back at their residence (their leapmaster floor has an open roof for teleportation)#keefe is standing there frantically ready to catch him #and their girl (im shit with names) is standing there giving him a look like “I thought you weren't scared of anything”#and he's just caught the kid and is trying to rock him to sleep cause teleporting is tiring for a 5 year old #but he humors her while walking down the hall to his bedroom #“who said i wasn't?” “i do” “why?”#“nobody who actually beat an ogre would be scared of their child teleporting away”#“you'd be surprised”#(she doesn't beleive he actually fought dimitar and thinks it's an elaborate inside joke between sophie him and queen ro)#so they keep going back and forth with him being vague about the details because while he did beat dimitar #he is absolutely exaggerating all the details #“keefe you can't tell our kids you punched dimitar and he immediately surrendered” “please” “no”#and then they get to his room on the second floor and he shushes her so he can place the sleeping boy in his bed #i have so many thoughts about future sokeefe actually

I've been trying to pay more attention to when things feel easy. I spent so many years forcing things - relationships, interests, routines - that it was difficult to imagine things could or should feel differently. now that I've starting experiencing things that feel natural, I'm learning that hard work and forcing things are not equivalent. Doing well in a class I enjoy takes a lot of work, but it's not miserable. Swimming makes me tired but it brings me joy. When I tell someone I like spending time with them, they suggest fun things to do and it just happens to be an activity I love. Relationships and hobbies and passions take work, but they can feel good. Noticing when it feels good can help us find the way towards what's meant for us.

#this is intended for things that we have agency over #cause there will be classes and jobs and interactions that we just have to do #and sometimes they will be forced because they're a requirement #even if we don't like them #but i think hobbies and friendships and passions can align with us #this is also completely my personal experience and not intended as a universal maxim #also if nothing feels natural to you yet #i'm way into my 20s and this is only something i found in the last like year #so please give yourself grace and don't give up #personal #mental health #studyblr

Alloaro culture is wanting a similar word to qpr for a committed partner you have sex with sometimes that is not romantic: qpr isn’t right because it has the word platonic in it.

hi! in a very gentle way, i am vibrating to let you know this is incorrect :)

from the POV of someone who's been around the aro community since ~2013-2014 on tumblr, the only time i've seen folks start to say that qprs couldn't include sexual components has been when

they've learned an incorrect definition of QPRs, or

in one particularly notable case, the individual proposing it turned out to be quite sex negative and upset at the mere thought that people could think that qprs could include sexual activity. this individual suggested an alternative term for individuals desiring sex in QPRs in a rather explicitly alloarophobic measure. when gently called out from what had seemed to be a genuine attempt at coining a new term, the above came to light. smaller cases of this pop up every once in a while, but this one got some notoriety.

queerplatonic was always meant to mean "queering the idea of a platonic relationship", "queering the idea of what a relationship means", and by explicit definition, has always been broadly and radically inclusive. any relationship, so long as the partners involved agree it is a queerplatonic one, is queerplatonic. no exceptions. this can mean it involves romance, sex, traditionally platonic elements, and anything and everything those involved desire out of it.

tldr; the word platonic is in queerplatonic to say it is counter to the idea of a restricted "platonic" relationship.

#Anonymous #aro culture is #aro #aromantic #actually aro #actually aromantic #ask #mod phoenix #pls don't ask me what the term had been or who the blogger was. i forgor #idk when it was anymore either cause it was uuuuhhhhh really distressing #i do think this blog existed tho so probs 2019 ish #sex negativity cw #alloarophobia cw #queerplatonic #i know it can be easy to get an incorrect or like. sanitized take online of what things mean #but generally speaking if the word is queer + [something] that [something] is being modified to be counter-cultural intuition #not just queer people *doing* the culturally intuitive version of that word #like... our system is genderqueer broadly speaking [i ID as agender or genderfuck primarily but most of the system also IDs as genderqueer]#and trust me this is not queer person doing Cis Binary Gender this is queer person says 'fuck that gender shit imma do what i want :)'#also pretty please know this is all being said in like. a smiling happy-to-share way!#this is not being said as like. 'uhhhhm aktually' mansplaining

I’m a trans man that recently got diagnosed with hyper mobile eds, so now seeing Steve makes me extra happy, because cool disabled ftm rep. Thanks for making the radical dude bro, he’s funky.

same disability (waving hand emoji)

Always extremely fulfilling to know my work makes people happy in some small way, it means a lot. Thank you for sharing with me

#I dont talk about having eds cause its not specifically really relevant to my work #been diagnosed with it since 17. woag 10 years next april...#anyways. yeah idk I like the blog to be about my art and I'm used to people asking me a LOT of questions about EDS or disability or canes #just a lot of stuff unrelated to my art. I'm happy to talk about it but I don't want it to be the focus of my blog!#So I've p much chosen to mostly just. not talk about it. even though I'm literally fine talking about it #it's just rarely relevant and no one needs to know LOL #but. I also know that EDS can feel very lonely #and that it's really nice to know other people out there have it #so. hi anon you're not alone #also just in case. literally don't feel bad about anything in the tags here LOL #mostly just like 'please people do not start sending me asks about whether or not you should go to the doctor'#or asks about ableist family members #or venting about pain...#just a lot of invasive and boundary crossing asks the more I talk about it hahahah #but I don't mind sharing at all.#sorry I think I lost the plot on this one #good luck on your journey. starting to accomodate yourself does wonders #and really just extremely happy my work could reach you in this way #sending you love #asks #anon

reading a post s7 fic and it's got me thinking... like, y'know, maybe the reason wil and xand struggle with their partners is because no one really comes above buffy. they're part of the slayer's arsenal, her best weapons, her biggest supports. and why buffy has such people troubles in general is because she will always always save wil and xand before anybody else. cause it's them three against the world

#in parentheses with a little asterisk ofc this is excluding dawn but do you understand me #they're trauma bonded u can't separate them :(#it'd probably be better for them honestly but also it's CRUEL #I'm just throwing this out there bc I'm thinking about the three of them again #like I don't think it's accurate but I don't feel like I'm entirely wrong either #will has an easier time putting her partners above buffy but like. idk man. she brought the bitch back from the dead #that was pretty big #and we all know how xander deals with buffy vs his girlfriends #buffy can't make friends to save her life out here and it's probably cause they know the scooby gang is fucking impenetrable #like oh yeah you really think ur coming between them? lol. lmao. rofl even #and okay buffy knows they can handle themselves. but be fr #if one of them was actually struggling do you not think she would drop everything to help them?#I am NEVER going to be able to properly articulate my feelings on three I just. they're so important to me. so important #I am still devastated to find they do not have an official ship name. someone. please #buffy x willow x xander #buffy summers #willow rosenberg #xander harris #btvs #buffy the vampire slayer

Saikik fanfic where yuuta has an abusive family (alcoholic absent mother,no father) but doesn't realize bc yk he's just a kid,After many fights,tricks and problems,Kusuo manages to have the abusers arrested but Yuuta is forced to end up in the system

Obviously kusuo would NEVER let that happend,He would talk (cough cough he would suggest cough) to his parents that they legally adopt Yuuta, but Kuniharu's bad work history and the fact that his mother is a housewife doesn't help,He wouldn't dare to use his mental control, something like "children can be adopted by a parent with medium/low-medium resources" wouldn't end well,so he takes control, gets a part time job for money (he refuses to use his powers to get easy money bc his mother etc), pays a lawyer and gets custody of yuuta as legal older brother,Now to get custody he had to emancipate himself (I don't know about the legal terms, if I find out more I will correct it, if anyone knows, can you tell me!) so the scenario is:

Kusuo is legally an adult, which means he can become independent since he has a stable income, Yuuta will no longer have to go to foster care and has a legal relative,now Yuuta went through a lot of stress in the process bc in the end he is still a child and Kusuo knows more than anyone that his parents, no matter how much love they may have, are not the right ones to take care of a child,so,They leave the house, get a decent apartment for both of them and that's basically the entire fanfic.

#Someone write it please #I would do it myself but I just don't know hoooow #The Yuuku brothership brainrot has been Awakened #And it won't leave me #saiki kusuo no ψ nan #the disastrous life of saiki k #saiki k #saiki kusuo #saiki #kusuo #yuuta iridatsu #Iridatsu #Yuuta #Thinking Abt other name cause #Yuuta & kusuo brothership #Is so loooooong #I posted sm using Yuuku #But idk i think I can do better

Wild guess: When daemonettes attack the Rogue Trader in her quarters, Heinrix is one of the last who comes for help because before the Rogue Trader ordered Abelard to place him as far from her bedroom as possible...

#and this order Abelard fulfilled gladly:D #Ok at least my Rogue Trader would do thatbecause she isn't really pleased with the inquisition and its methods... for some personal reason #the less the inquisition knows about rogue traders' business the better #so she wants to provide the interrogator with as little opportunity to watch her and spy on her as possible #is it even helping? don't think so #also it can lead to such situations like this when he's supposed to reach her quarters quickly but he can't in fact #it may also cause slight problems after they become romantically involved:D #rogue trader #von valancius #heinrix van calox #wh40k rogue trader #abelard werserian #headcanons #silly thoughts #i haven't even played the game but already had my headcanons :D #haven't played yet... i do hope #female rogue trader

Discourses over shipping are so funny to me. You can say you dgaf what others ship and get someone so mad they block you and make call out post about how dare you being a reasonable human being and mind your own business online

#like don't get me wrong there are defo ships i wouldn't touch with 5 meters stick be it vanilla ones or messed up ones #but i don't trigger myself by scrolling through tags of said things and being upset over people on the other side of the world who like that #istg said behavior can be considered self destructive cuz why are you making yourself upset and angry about things you can't control and #aren't causing anyone harm? do some reflection on your internet habbits please #ship and let ship #pro fandom #proship #again i dislike that label cuz i don't think whole debate should even exist

the day osc tumblr stops fighting over tacomic is the day we all heal [adding my personal opinion in the tags]

#tacomic neg #adding the tags so the people im talking about can see this and actually digest it with their eyeballs #its just so tiring #why do u guys care about ship discourse so much for ships that aren't even bad or hurting anyone #please just look away and stop complaining and being unnecessarily mean to people who are doing nothing wrong #i've never seen any actual tacomic shippers MAKE them abusive or toxic or belittle other ships and be so hostile towards them #also it'll make you much happier instead of making you pointlessly mad all the time if u just stop caring #i think people should just stop fighting each other cause it gets nowhere and just makes both parties mad and upset for no reason #but the osc thrives off of negativity and infighting for some reason idk why im even saying this. im not surprised this is happening.#its been like this ever since i joined. don't you guys ever take a break instead of being so negative all the time?#its also hypocritical for reasons i've said before but i don't feel like starting anything up

the amount of effort that goes into figuring out what to cook and eat every day is RIDICULOUS. i used to think people were so weird and boring for eating the same thing every single day but it truly does make life so much easier

#and also it's nice to know exactly what your food is going to taste like before you eat it #like when i get unfamiliar takeout. half the time i'm like. oh.#i'm going to have to eat all of this. or be judged.#so i just do my best to suppress my gag reflex and Get Through It and then it makes me sick so what was even the point #i think my parents spoiled me. and the most annoying thing is they're significantly better at cooking now than when i was a child #so when i go over i eat three delicious home cooked meals + snacks and they're all different and amazingggg #and then i come back to texas and i am like. googling 'how to feed myself healthy vegetarian'#because I do NOT have the time or money or energy to cook three beautiful delicious meals Just For Me #i think this would be easier with a partner #this whole week i bought a fuckton of mediterranean groceries and i have been making and eating food!!#mediterranean is close enough to indian that i like it well enough #unfortunately for me. i am def going to have to learn how to cook indian food to get through life. because i cannot fucking eat american #i don't know HOW you guys do it i'm so spoiled #i'm assuming meat is this really amazing wonderful thing that just adds flavor to everything #(it is physically repulsive to me and the couple times ive accidentally tasted it it's bleh so i refuse to partake)#i think it's an acquired taste but it magically makes ur food better. that is my understanding of how meat works #cause american vegetarian food is the saddest fucking thing i've ever tasted #i still think about my coworker i was talking to about my food issues and he was like. 'do u understand that you have been given a gift #by having constant access to tasty food your entire life. i ate unseasoned green beans every day of my childhood. learn how to fucking cook #indian food already.' truly a horrific thing to hear. but i'm calling my parents more and going HOW TO COOK VEGETABLE? BEAN? PLEASE HELP??#and by god i am not going to turn into my coworker.#anyways we start with baby steps. lentils and rice it is next week .-. going to the indian store to buy pickles to make it more tolerable #and i have my cabinet full of spices already at least #i wish i was less pickyyy #sometimes lalita cooks indian food for me and i'm like wow. i love and appreciate u for feeding me. but this sure is south indian food #i don't understand How they use spices. it feels like they toss as much of as many bottles as they can into every dish #and it's. the taste is just OW OW OW and nothing else. where's the nuance. the flavor.#and i like it when things are spicy!! i can even eat things where the flavor is just Hot. but not when she cooks it.#she will like watch my face when i take a bite and then go 'if you don't like it i'm throwing away all my pots and running away'#which. honestly a fair reaction. the problem is that i am incapable of lying
