Look at my evil princess. I love her so much. She's an unstoppable force of chaos that is simultaneously bent on assimilation. She is the worst person ever yet I am always rooting for her. Companies rise and fall based on who she wants to invite to dinner. I want her to destroy the world.
#bertha russell#the gilded age#I love her so much#she is a great anti hero#because I hate her less than the other society ladies#her money is unethical af but she is trying to change an also unethical status quo so let's go I guess#she's a great palate cleanser after Little Miss Perfect Marian (I don't hate Marian she is just an ingenue objectively)#I am such a bad lesbian#I tried to watch Gentleman Jack like a Respectable Sapphic and it stressed me out and I couldn't watch season 2 after checking the plot#and now I'm invested in “HBO's worst show” The Gilded Age#though in my lesbian defense: look at my princess and you will see the appeal#Also the Russells are exactly what I want to see for lesbian rep and what I hoped s2 of Gentleman Jack would be#Like two people who are in love fighting a social sphere that doesn't like them through Unethical Capitalism and Love#sometimes having minor spats but mostly working together as a united force#which I guess isn't what the diaries say so they couldn't do which is fair but still disappointing#to be clear: the show was really good just not to my personal taste#I just want ONE SHOW where we get to have lesbian leads with a Russell-type romance#I love her bird dress also#and her bangs in this photo look like they were made in the Sims 4 /neutral observation

Feel free to elaborate in the replies 🤔
#The Sims 2#Also of course some shoes just won't work on blockfeet. But assume that's not the case here when answering#Me personally. I am neutral to positive#because I like to avoid adding new meshes if I can get away with it#so to be honest if I can't tell unless I'm looking really closely. I'm all for it#but I have read other people saying they can always tell and that it's a dealbreaker for them#either way I will do it because of my Own Particularities lmao but I'm trying to gauge how just-for-me this stuff is

I keep going back and forth on the topic of where I fall on the allo/aro spectrum, partially because I kind of like. Don't wanna be aro (I'm already trans, queer and autistic with depressive tendencies, I don't need to add another thing to the list)
But another part of it is that even if I am capable of romantic love I probably just wouldn't know, because I already don't really know what platonic love feels like? And I'm not saying I can't love anything or anything like that it's just. Like many other emotions, I kind of have to retroingeneer it, sort of
I know I love my cats, not because I feel a surge of Something when I look at them, but because it makes me smile when they do something cute—my face knows what I'm feeling in those moments, I'm not sure I do. I know I love them because when Pouet died I cried every day for a month and I still cry sometimes, when I think about her. I know I love my cats because my brain keeps lighting up with fear signals when they're sleeping and I don't immediately see their chest move as they breathe.
I know what anxiety feels like, I know what anger feels like (when it explodes), I know what depression feels like because I dealt with them for so long I learned to recognize their physical symptoms! If these emotions didn't leave specific signals in my body then I'm not sure I'd know what they are.
And the thing is... I don't really like. Know what love or affection feels like, I think. Yes I can feel myself smile when I speak to certain people, but I also habitually smile at everybody because it makes things easier socially. I know I like people because if they ask me if I want to do an activity I either say yes or I have regrets about saying no.
My point is: I feel like I don't know my emotions so much as I know the buttons they push in my body, so to speak, but the problem about platonic/romantic love is that I can't imagine they make that different a shame, so who's to say which one it is?
It's funny, in a way, that I don't know something like that at my age. It's also really inconvenient, tbh. There's not really a reason for me to think about this rn except sometimes if I meet a cool dude whom I know is gay I wonder for a minute or two what a relationship with him would be like (which I'm going to assume is not that weird a thing to do) and the last time that happened led to, well. Ponderings about romance I guess
Anyway, the tl;Dr is that it took me decades to figure out the emotions I can recognize now, and I've largely approached social interactions with the inner spirit of a wet Chihuahua for most of that time, so how the fuck do I know if I can't identify those because I'm shit at self understanding or because I don't feel them???
Idk, it's complicated
(Tho honestly it would also be a little bit hilarious if after all this shit I landed on nah just aro. Not my preferred option right now but eh xD)
#Matt has a life#Shit from home#BUT ALSO#When I came out as a lesbian it was sort of a logical reasoning#'oh I'm not interested in being in a straight relationship so I mist be a lesbian'#V neutral when you look at it#Whereas figuring out I was trans came with such a wave of like#relief and joy that EVEN I couldn't miss it#it was so strong it's been the cornerstone of getting myself out of anxiety spirals everytime I wondered if I was allowed to identify#as trans despite not starting any official transition process for the past eight years#you would THINK that an accurate label ought to feel like that right?#aro... doesn't#is it prejudice I haven't dealt with? is it bc it's not accurate? is it because my trauma is largely centered on my gender identity#and having suffered less about the romantic spectrum side of things made my reactions less intense?#a mix of all of those? some degree of repression because I'm still not done feeling like if I try to have a presence in people's life I wil#make them uncomfortable and disgusted because I'm some sort of monstrous being?#I sure as shit had no shortage of shame back when I had that coworker of mine that made me blush and stammer and was 5 years younger than m#URGH#Can you tell I don't have a therapist#10n

am I really about to be the first nsfw request on this blog... sorry for being a whore. can you write general ichiro nsfw headcanons pretty please 🙇✨️
lol dw anon. I too am an abolute whore for Ichiro. though who can blame us 😔 but I shall try !! This is my first time ever posting nsfw, so I hope it works!! haven't actually written much nsfw on my own, but I want to get better~ (and also I'm horny lol). but please enjoy!! and lmk how it goes!
— general nsfw hcs.
nsfw. gn!reader. ichiro. 18+ only ; minors do not interact!!
Ichiro . . . is a gentleman, in and out the sheets. a very sweet and attentive sorta lover (though at times a tease)
sorta like candlelight or rose petals on silk sheets. like moonlight that kisses you tenderly. a cute lover through and through; he wants to pleasure you first and foremost
(really though, he's still a dork deep down. still a nineteen year old loser with a huge crush)
he’s definitely a little awkward at first since Ichiro hasn’t had much experience in the past with these sorta things; most — almost all — his knowledge comes from hentai and adult visual novels, Ichiro embarrassingly admits
(and he definitely learns that some of the stuff in porn does not translate well to real life; but it's fun and you guys have a good laugh about it)
his hands seem hesitant when they roam up your shirt — heavy as they are on your skin, gentle yet. his dimples your hips or thighs, sweet; he fumbles a bit with the condom as it slips from his grasp a few times, Ichi a little (a lot) embarrassed; and, Ichiro seems to waver, when he pulls back from a kiss. his warm hands up your shirt, hot breath tickling your lips; and, as much as his eyes say, they still shake uneasy. are you sure?
but he only wants to reassure that you want this as much as him! and- man, trust him. Ichiro wants it very much. He just.. doesn't know; it's your guys' first time after all! and he wouldn't want to make the first move if you weren't entirely ready yet
but he’s a quick learner! there’s definitely more confidence later on, when Ichiro takes off his shirt so swift and smooth, when he shoots you that handsome smile — softness in his gaze
(and he gets cutely proud of himself when you cum like three or four times)
he’s a giver, first and foremost; Ichi is attuned to your needs. it’s just- he loves taking care of the ones he love!! call it his older brother instinct or whatnot. and he’d try to not cum until you do so first
you don't have to go down on him, Ichiro insists. but well, he's not opposed either. he's a little filthy inside, and he hates that he loves the look of you down in between his legs oh so much
very attentive to all your little sweet spots and what makes you cum. though sometimes, he can be a total tease with that too
he’s gentle too!! his little touches are so tender yet hot — never too harsh. especially if you're smaller than him. he could never be too rough (unless you're into that sorta thing)
more of a switch, really; ichiro doesn’t have a particular preference, and he’s more than happy to try out new stuff, especially if it's something that you're excited about (what can he say? he loves to please)
he’s not very loud since Ichi tries to contain himself. Sure, the house is usually empty — that, or Ichi makes extra sure to lock his bedroom door. but he doesn’t think he can ever look his brothers in the eye if they accidentally heard anything
(which is highly unfortunate since he makes the prettiest of sounds
but sometimes, a particularly load moan will slip through, and the flustered look on his face, the red blush to his cheeks, is the sweetest thing. God- did that really just come out of him??)
he does that sappy thing, where Ichi will trace his fingers up your arm and then hold your hand sweetly; he'll give it a little squeeze too, and somehow, it always makes his heart skip a beat each and every time
and he grunts your name underneath his breath during climax. a little raspy, a little rough; he says it with so much love. your name rolls like velvet off his tongue
he never does moan too loud though, but it's just enough for you to hear and make your heart tremble. they’re hushed, like a secret meant only for your ears
always mindful not to leave hickies anywhere too visible! maybe a bit lower on your collarbone, or on your inner thighs, but Ichi would never want to embarrass you or make it too showy. Unless he's feeling a bit more confident that day, of course. perhaps a little jealous too
but, ichi does get a tinge flustered, mostly very dork-ily happy, when he sees the marks on your skin. they're very pretty on you.. ( and hickies look quite good on him too! so make sure to give him lots and lots. they just suit him so )
and he likes to cuddle afterward, always. you’re just so warm in his arms, within these sheets. and it almost feels like your heart beats are entwined, breaths too; that's the romantic in him
#��˚⊹ 📨 requests#hypmic x reader#gender neutral reader#ichiro yamada x reader#smut#n.sfw#do not want to get shadowbanned lol#this is prob more fluff than hot but. alas.#i am still learning!!#who is ichi if not a complete dork#(excuses)#i've been still trying to adjust to year 2!!#that plus my complete lack of motivation has been making it really difficult to write lately :')#actually let's talk about being expected to work or study mindlessly for the majority of the day. majority of your life#drains the entire creativity out of you.#it drains my soul 😭#i mean. i do love learning this stuff. truly#but being expected to keep up with these lectures they throw at you is fucking insane lmao#all the third and fourth years keep saying that it gets better from third year and i'm inclined to believe them :')#but then again.. i just know residency is going to be the most soul sucking years of my entire life#idk.. i tried to write all throughout last week. but i just had an exam and then they threw me right into lectures and i was just so tired#also this next week's batch of lectures.. do not look v promising LOL#it's just a lot. why is each lecture split into like an additional three to four parts </3 they're so evil for that#could've just made them into their own separate lectures atp so it wouldn't look like we only have 7 lectures this week-#-when we actually have 17 😭

I laid out the crochet blanket I'm making for my cat, and she's lying on it even though she can only fit two thirds if her body onto it right now and this is making it all worth it 😭😭😭😭
#art#crochet#fiber art#would include a picture but i'm not about to doxx my cat (joking)#for real though it's only because it would ruin what little anonymity i have on this account </3#i got really worried that she didn't like the blanket because she was curled up next to it and would only rest her little cheek on it#if i had to guess i need only one more skein for the body and then i want to add a border and maybe tassels if i'm feeling nasty#i feel like she would LOVE tassels because she's playful and loves to play with anything but... i don't know yet#she almost swallowed string for no reason so i don't know if i trust her with tassels#the hard part is figuring out what would go well with grey and white though. like they're both neutral colours but still#nooo she's ASLEEP asleep on the blanket ��😭😭😭#wondering if the border should be a hdc or a dc or a simple sl st though...#i was trying to follow a pattern that called for alternating sc and dc and i frogged all of it because it looked dumb on my yarn#so maybe i'll do a dc in honour of the pattern i did not follow whatsoever

Hate that I have to start this post with a disclaimer but it's tumblr so. Anyways this post is about my own personal experiences. If you disagree maybe shut up because it isn't about you.
I can't say much because my memory in general sucks but. I honest to god don't think I was particularly feminine until doctors made me go on estrogen based medication, against my will, at 14-19. I was fairly androgynous. Fairly small chest, fairly square build. But the second I came out as trans, I was told the only way to stop having debilitating monthly periods was 100% estrogen based medication.
It didn't even help. The pills gave me migraines and nausea; the patch worsened my acne, made the few periods i did get ten times worse, and changed my body in the exact opposite ways that I wanted; no one ever let me CONSIDER implants, depo shots, or even a copper IUD. I had to BEG a doctor to let me try out Danazol (synthetic androgen) which is when my body FINALLY stopped freaking the fuck out. After the damage had been done. After living for 10 years with endometriosis no doctor even wanted to do a laparoscopy to confirm and actively tried to scare me out of.
My insides are beyond fucked as it stands, and at 24 I'm only NOW maybe going to be able to get a hysterectomy. I don't think I'd need any sort of breast reduction/top surgery had I not been made to go onto estrogen. It took a long time to come to terms with this. PCOS runs in my family on both sides. I've never had a gynecologist willing to check. The most ob-gyns have done for me is tell me i don't need their care because i was planning to start T.
I'm not transmasc, even if people insist that I am because I'm on T/am trans and afab. I never was supposed to fucking develop this way, as it fucking turns out. We know I have some sort of endocrine disorder thanks to my current doctor taking me seriously, even if we don't know what it is yet.
Anyways. I'm gonna be real here and just say that I think maybe listening to intersex people's experiences with open minds will lead to a lot more progress than just assuming everyone who doesn't agree with your point of view on a type of transphobia is a bigot with unexplored internal biases who hates you for being part of the "worse side" of the trans umbrella because it might let you understand more about yourself in the process. Like obviously don't take bigotry lying down, but also. Not every contradiction is bigotry. Sometimes two things can be true at the same time.
#its like 4 a.m okay im tired but#I'm so sick of the if ur not transfem you're transmasc and vice versa shit#especially because of so many people just going well youre afab/amab so of course you--#like. shush. shh. no. agab is an event.#i was treated like a 'normal' kid up until puberty when i started it early#and then didnt really have much secondary sex characteristics going on for a good while#until i was made to take the hrt most 'fitting' for my asab#im not transmasc nor am i transfem i just got shuffled around a lot in the medical system because i was trans#and wanted to be neutral.#i asked for puberty blockers. i was denied and forced onto estrogen#the gender therapist i saw from 12-15 insisted i was a girl to my parents because I was a kid who. like.#didnt want to be a Manly Man but didn't feel like a girl#i wanted to just. develop either naturally#or to be put on something that would counter act the E they made me take#like. that's it.#god its so weird looking back and going hey why didn't. anyone. uh. say shit about this.#because of how intersex traits arent understood by the public in general#this is also a warning that if anyone is brave enough to try and joke about forcefemming me#i will pull your spine out through your throat. because that is not appropriate in this context#least if all from a stranger.

can I be so open and vulnerable with you guys. the card I was given from people at my old office was sincerely so nice and really validating but also I feel like the main impression I left other people with was "she's really nice" WHICH IS GOOD, I DO WANT TO BE KNOWN AS NICE but also part of me is like... should I maybe strive for "innovative" or "creative" or "a go-getter" because being The Nice One just feels a little mealy-mouthed of me y'know?
#I think there is something to be said here for being so averse to conflict and also such a control freak that I spend incalculable energy on#making other people happy/comfortable/cool-with-me so on and so forth#like this has been a problem in past friendships too as I've grown up#and I've noticed it even online like sometimes I'll have A Take and I won't post it because I don't want to be negative about something#that someone else may like or whatever#which is GOOFY because some of my favorite people are those with strong personalities (bc it's a CLEAR VIEW of that person's personality!!)#and yet here I am like "tee hee I'm so nice everyone likes me because I'm nice anyway when I look in a mirror all i see is a blank wall''#lol y'know? and like no I certainly express opinions and express emotions other than Just Being Happy#and also any waylaid attempts at being so neutral as to not offend people uhhhhh don't work. ask me how I know#(I know because people have hated my guts on the internet before lol)#so it's like: this performance is truly for no one but yourself AND!!!! *AND* it's not even good for you because you might not actually be#being your authentic self#anyways I'm afraid to be a hater and also I'm afraid people won't like me so I try hard to make them like me#and THAT leads to me getting a very nice card about how everyone likes me and me inevitably going: but do they know and like the REAL me#lololololololol that's so goofy#anyway kids be yourselves#also what can I say I derive great pleasure from trying to be the nicest person a cashier interacts with on a given day so#idk there's a middle ground to be struck therein and I'm still navigating it

#the diary of bunny#i'm feeling so many things lately. a lot of different things. not all good but also not all bad.#some emotions are neutral i think. i feel happy because of the benefits of my new position. i feel stressed because i want to do well-#in that position and prove that i'm worthy of those benefits. i feel scared sometimes because i am allowing myself to be who i was before-#a lot of traumatic stuff in my life happened. i also feel worried that i am not doing well enough/that i am too slow/not learning fast-#enough at my new position. i am trying so so so hard. but every time i make a mistake it sucks. hopefully i will feel less like-#a fish out of water in a week or two. anyway. i am still thinking hard about who i am in a lot of universes/lives/whatever else.#now that i'm not super traumatized/in psychosis/being forced to be someone that someone else wants me to be.#so far i have one (1) figured out with the help of 💚! which is better than zero i guess. i'm just doing it with a blank slate — meaning-#that i'm looking at those things with new eyes. and trying to focus on what makes my soul feel right and good. though it's kinda hard right#now because i'm still not in tune with what my soul is. or feels. i'm really thinking though. it feels important to figure it out.#i'm hungry now....the desire to spend money on a dominos stuffed crust should be studied because i feel that a lot. 😔 and a lava cake 🥺#we have food at home but i'm craving pizza with the cheese inside................#i cannot let it win. but i want it so bad. >:|#i ate some vegetables today so i should be allowed....as a treat....but my bank account....ooooh but i want it so bad....

In light of the Lars of the Stars announcement
I've decided I'd like to see what actually happens to Jasper, if anything, in the upcoming show before I begin here. I may need to readjust the concept quite a bit. Depending on what happens and whether or not it's relevant to the concept I've already drafted up, I'll probably tell y'all what was GOING to happen in this comic before it changed (just to make sure you're not missing anything major!) In short, this project is shelved but not cancelled!
See you sooner or later!
#one thing I'm trying to look out for is if they're gonna put jasper and lapis back together.#I am admittedly not a jaspis shipper but I know a good amount of the crewniverse are#so while I'm not rooting for it I'm not going to be especially upset if it DOES happen#and I'll probably reexamine Lapis and see if I can like... learn to like her.#I don't DISlike her I'm just neutral to her LMAO

my gender is whatever you call being afab but you like being referred to as they/them, your friends call you dad, you like being referred to with gender neutral terms/words and you don't mind/actually like it when people misgender you, you want to look genderless, but you don't get uncomfy in rooms such as changing/bathrooms.
I have no idea rn so imma hope things make sense in like a year or so.
#eris is discoing#Am I just cis with a certain preference of looking gender neutral#Maybe#Is this actually some form of gender queer ness#Maybe.#I don't know#Imma just shove it down until it makes sense#I would like to TRY they/them pronouns with my fam for like a week#My mom wouldnt mind probably#But my dad would probably just say it's the Internet#It might be from the internet#I dont think I'm really brain-mature enough to know for sure yet#So I'll just wait and hope the answers come to me#Will this work#Maybe maybe not

realizing that i probably spent half of my shift looking pissed off bc i was tired and had a headache and that that's probably why my new area manager came up to me and asked me if im always that quiet cmsjfjjs sorry ma'am like,,, yes i am but also im not like Angry or anything im just thinking about my blorbos while trying to get through the shift without killing myself or dropping a wrench into an engine or throwing my torque gun outside in a fit of passion or something
#like maam I've been over here for 4 days and you are just now realizing I'm very quiet? i don't think so#i think i probably looked angry as fuck and she got Concerned cmajfjajjc#i know i was bc i took note of it at some point and considered trying to make my expression mkre neutral or pleasant#but gave up bc i was already just exhausted#so like. whoops.#i did tell her that ill talk if peolle talk to me first but i just don't tend to start conversations#so if you dont talk to me i will just be quiet 9 times outta 10#anyway. fjjakfkkakfkkajf.#shh ac

no this is not an important topic BUT im curious. note: i forgot to put a "i literally don't care i just do whatever" option but. pick im bald for that i guess
#i'm very firm on my answer but im curious about the distribution tbh#trying to add nuance to the options but there's only so much i can think of#to elaborate on the polycule option it's like. i only want to see AxB when im an AxC fan if it's AxBxC at the same time#as opposed to AxB separate from AxC or AxB and AxC at different points in a character's life or just A(C+B) but NOT BxC#(even though there are polycules that look like AxC+AxB but not BxC. ugh idk just vote with your gut explaining's hard)#anyway i've seen ppl who're bothered (/neutral) by seeing alt ships bc they a) have fictives involved b) kin a character involved or c)#selfship with a character involved so like. im curious is what im saying. bc im generally pretty insistent on my own multishipping#but i get the a b and c reasons for ppl being uncomfortable. i also get things like characters being married or smth. im starting to think#my options for this poll weren't amazing (again) but whatever

Just a reminder that a vote for no one is a vote for the opposition
#Get real#You can't be neutral on this#We're not looking for an ally#We're trying to keep Republicans out#Ebcause you can belly ache about how Democrats are just as bad or how they don't do anything all you want#They're not the ones killing us in the streets#Voting blue in the 2024 election is so important you don't understand#My family is getting passports and considering skipping the country if the election goes wrong and there are a TON#Of reasons why we don't want to do that.#I'm fucking begging you#Vote blue no matter who#Even if it's Joe#Voting third party is a waste of time. It just makes the chances of winning smaller#us politics

wait so i had a thought. so if you're transitioning to a guy you would usually be transmasc. and transitioning to a girl would usually be transfem. but like. what about agender. transnothing??
#agender#i usually go with transneu but it doesn't always feel right#bc my multigenders are man and agender and thing#and neutral brings to mind simply nonbinary which i know is an umbrella term#but more and more lately it simply feels like just a third gender instead of a broad term describing anyone not binary#and so many people seem to believe that if you're nonbinary you have to present as androgynously as possible#and if any of your unchangeable without surgery traits are too gendered then you're not trying hard enough#even though. you know. most people can't really afford to just get a surgery whenever they fucking want to be trans#and some people just do not fucking want to and it's bullshit that this is so enforced it's classist and ableist and fatphobic#im multigender and still feel completely excluded from being nonbinary because I'm trying to grow a beard and get bottom surgery#that doesn't turn me into a genderless ken doll#i want to look masculine but apparently that's not allowed here. :/
