#please do not reblog

[polkadotmotmot]

As some of you may know my brother, who I love to death has been struggling with a severe alcohol addiction, and I found out this afternoon that he attempted to take his own life. He's okay for the moment, but I am so distraught. All I want is for him to live a healthy and happy life, but if he doesn't check in to an inpatient rehabilitation center he will die. I know it's true.

gimme a bad boy who found a girl and since being with her he’s calm and the sweetest man. and then add a baby into the mix and he’s the softest human possible. meeting his gf made him calm and happy but his little girl made him into a man. like coming home and just laying on the couch and his hand on her stomach feeling the baby kicking and doesn’t move it as it grounds him and calms him. then they’re born and he just lies with his baby girl on his chest and he knows he’ll do anything for this tiny little perfect human. just yeah please.

So this is bizarre...

For context: A couple months ago, this person was upset because they'd been misgendered by simmers in various comments and such around the internets. I wrote a very polite and sympathetic comment on their post about it, trying to be helpful, in which I basically said, "Being misgendered sucks, but given that Sims fandom seems to be majority-female, it's not surprising that people would innocently make an assumption, given that not everyone looks at profiles before they comment on something, blah blah." (I don't remember exactly what I said and can't look because they deleted the comment, but that is the gist.) And then I ran a poll to see if my impression that Sims fandom is majority-female was correct because I was curious. (And it is majority-female by a wide margin, at least according to my unscientific and not-at-all-statistically-significant poll. LOL )

Apparently this person was mightily offended by my claim that Sims fandom is majority-female and even more offended that I dared to take a poll, because then I got a whole entire shitload of xenophobic and misogynistic nonsense from the person, in both multiple mentions (that I couldn't reply to) and private messages, which is yet another reason (of many) why I now pretty much ignore the latter because I don't need that nonsense in my face. They'd also blocked me from commenting on their posts and, as I said, deleted the first comment I made to them. Which is fine. Anyone's free to block someone else in any way for whatever reason, and they're free to block/moderate comments as they see fit. I had no intention of commenting on their posts in the future, so it didn't matter.

But then today, many weeks later, out of nowhere, not having said a word to or about this person since the initial...thing...I get notifications about these mentions:

So I guess the first flood of nonsense wasn't enough? I don't know if this will be it or if this is just the start of another flood or if there will be another gap in time and then another thing. All I know is that I apparently live rent-free in the mind of this one person on the other side of the planet, which is fucking hilarious. This is the best laugh I've had in a while, seriously. Which probably says something about the lack of WTFery in my life at the moment.

PS: If you know who this person is - and I suspect that many of you will, from things some of you have shared -- please please please do NOT go and say stuff to them. I mean that very sincerely. Not only would it accomplish nothing, but that's not what this is about at all. This is all about the WTF kind of lulz.

Anyway, I'mma go build something now, I think.

don’t know how active i’ll be going forward

had to call an ambulance for my mom today because she’s been sick with the flu and hasn’t left bed in 2 days and didn’t know where she was or what day it was. after hours in the ER and a three hour surgery they found two golfball sized tumors in her colon. her colon had basically become useless. i haven’t been able to stop crying since the doctor said “colon cancer” three hours ago. my dad keeps saying we have to be strong for her but i don’t think i can be, i want to die seeing her this way, i love her so much.

I would like to write a scenario where Tseng is accused of a murder he didn't commit & your character is keeping him hidden / helping him find the real murderer. Bonus if your character is one of the Turks & is ordered to bring him in. Ugh. The feels. ;;

Quick and Dirty Timeline of Cazador's Early Life

This is primarily based off of my own homebrew and headcanons, with inspirations drawn from lore you can find in my post here. This is entirely my own timeline based on my research and how I believe the character's background goes. I do not claim this as accurate for any other depiction of Cazador except for mine. If you want to use elements for your own interpretation of the character, all I ask is that you give me credit.

1138: Cazador Szarr is born to the Szarrs in the Tumbledown District of Baldur's Gate's Outer City, the youngest of many. A wealthy merchant family from Kozakura who came to expand their operations in Faerun, rumors of the family's involvement with vampires have been whispered for decades but no one dares investigate. This is also the year that Donnela Szarr, Cazador's grandmother, rises to power as the Vampire Lord of Baldur's gate. Cazador's mother died giving birth to him, and thus his grandmother, who had never been able to convince her daughter to take the gift of vampirism, becomes very protective of her youngest grandchild.

1160-1190s: Cazador spends a few decades abroad in Kozakura to receive an education about the family's business and culture. It is during this time that he begins to resent his own family, feeling as though he is constantly being held back in his education and abilities in favor of his elder siblings. His obsession for perfection begins here, wanting to make himself worthy of his family's admiration. He starts a lengthy corrospondence with his grandmother about his unfair treatment by the others, and she promises him power when he returns. She speaks of a man named Vellioth whom he will take up apprenticeship with when he returns.

1197: Cazador returns to the family's estate to find his grandmother waiting with his new sponsor. Cazador is well aware of both of their statuses as Vampires, and anticipates his apprenticeship will end in his turning. He is prepared, willing, desiring the power that comes with being turned.

1204: The Szarrs are attacked and most members killed by a rival family employing the help of a vampire slayer. The family's estates are burnt to the ground. Donnela is killed in the attack, but before she dies she tasks Vellioth, her own vampiric progeny, to save Cazador and turn him to a True Vampire. Vellioth does indeed save Cazador, but turns him to a spawn instead, fearful of giving the ambitious merchant full power.

1263-67: Vellioth finally agrees to make Cazador a True Vampire when Cazador discovers his plans to translate and enact the Ritual of Ascension. It is during this time period that Cazador makes a deal with Mephistopheles to help him kill his Master and translate the ritual in exchange for the 7000 souls that would perish in said ritual.

1268: (Alternate Timeline) Cazador turns Astarion into his first spawn, angering Vellioth, which causes the rift between the too.

1272: Cazador finally kills Vellioth, assuming the role of Vampire Lord of Baldur's Gate.

1285-1291: (Alternate Timeline) Cazador creates his first spawn, and begins a seduction and manipulation of the Magistrate Astarion Ancunin.

1292: Cazador makes Astarion his spawn, default to first spawn for most interactions.

More may be added in the future.

Quick teensy little update under the cut….

I just spent my Saturday night in the emergency room. Two doses of morphine and a lot of tests later, I’m fine. Just an infection that caused me the biggest amount of pain I’ve been in in years. The meds should help, but depending on my pain and sleepiness I probably won’t be around much today, but please feel free to keep tagging me in your seven sentence Sunday posts if you read this.

Honestly thank fuck this happened today and not Monday at least?

For some time, I have been noticing that the engagement this blog receives in forms of likes & reblogs is quite contrary to its intended purpose. So, it's time for a little poll:

Please only vote when you follow this blog. I'm trying to find out if my suspicion is true, and if that's the case, I will try to adjust my content in order to reach the audience I had hoped to interact and form relationships with when I made this account.

This poll will be open for one week. I will reblog it daily to reach as many of my followers as possible (sorry for the annoyance in advance!).

I'd like to write for pre-crisis Tseng with a Sephiroth, Reno, Rufus, or Vincent. I keep thinking of baby Tseng & Seph with their short hair.

So I know some of y'all have been wondering, and I'm sorry to be cryptic about it, but my friend Carly unbelievably sadly took her own life the other night. She was the last person I talked to on Friday night. I'm just in shock. She's so vibrant and beautiful inside and out, and talented, and a superstar person in general. I just cannot believe it. I've been crying for two days straight. I don't really know what to say. I will always love her. Devastating for her family, our friends, and anyone her huge presence of a person ever touched. She will be missed beyond belief. RIP Carly. I LOVE you.
