#sometimes I’m like I am making. no sense lol.

love the explanations you have for each tarot, especially yuki’s and alex’s!! please keep the commentary coming!!

!!!! Thank you!!! This is my favorite part of doing this series :-). I just think it’s no fun without the explanations!!

This series is nice bc there’s like. No right answer to a card?? So even though I’m ADAMANT in most of my choices. Like to me Lando IS the death card, and Yuki IS the Moon etc etc there are lots of people who I’ve talked to that totally disagree and have a way different perspective and it’s so cool to hear that!!! I talked to someone recently that wants to do this with all classic f1 drivers like that’s SO SICK

At some point I might put out my little google doc with the tarot defs and my reasonings for each card lol

it feels so…… weird… seeing a cishet dude be so chill with queer themes lmao your soda-in-drag moment, the stevepop of it all, even guys with queers in their friend circles can’t bring themselves to partake sometimes lmao 😭 but it’s cool !! refreshing even sjksksndks this is a /pos statement I promise

Thanks lol! I think it’s cos I’m fairly secure. Sorta. (I’m still prone to compensating for things and being a stupid teen boy, but like, I’m aware of it, at least when I stop to think. Yk I’ll still join in on dick measuring contests, but deep down I’ll know it’s dumb and performative.)

I guess I feel a kinship to queerness. I go to art school where I’m sometimes the only guy in a class of girls, and I’ve been the token straight guy in every friend group I’ve been in since freshman year of high school. Beyond that, growing up I was frequently mistook for a girl- I had long-ish hair (post bowl-cut era 😭) and I’m part Asian, I was pretty androgynous lol. People irl have thought I’m gay, or a trans man on testosterone (I mean fine, I guess I am pretty short and hang with a lot of trans guys.) Hell, I did drag on a dare once, back when I was even more secure. (And I was hot asf in drag lemme tell ya. It felt lousy and it’s definitely not my thing, but man if I had a clone who was a girl-) All this to say, I say I’m straight, but honestly I don’t really know. I like girls a lot, but I have seen a buddy of mine in drag, and lemme tell ya I felt something but I’m not gonna examine that rn lol. Straight just feels comfortable, safe, and it’s good for interacting with folks who ain’t so progressive, so it’s what I’m sticking with…but I’ll admit there’s a gray area.

I relate a lot to the guys in the Outsiders, and irl I like to present myself as a tough, cool, Very Masculine guy. Hell, sometimes I play dumb about stuff because it’s “feminine” and a guy like me shouldn’t know about it. I act a lot like how I write Steve Randle, he’s my guy I like to project on lol. Honestly, I’ve got a fair amount of internalized toxic masculinity. But I think because I know how silly it all is deep down, I can interact with queer themes in art without feeling like I’m not “man enough”. Idk, I suppose it’s an outlet in some ways. Who knows maybe in 2027 I’ll come out as bi or something, but don’t wait up.

idk, I guess what I’m trying to say is that I like exploring queer themes, not because they’re queer necessarily, but because they’re human and I relate to them. And that’s hard not to partake in, y’know?

you know what I’ve realized lately? that’s really helped? the axiom: it just doesn’t really make that much of a difference. Or at least it doesn’t when you’re talking about good things and not, like, doing good vs. doing evil. Big choices, little choices, decisions, decisions —it’s not just that they don’t matter in the grand scheme of things—because they do! —but just. It won’t make that big of a difference. Life will continue to be wonderful AND difficult, fascinating AND hopelessly mundane, full of roses AND thorns and all the other cliches whether you walk down one road or another. And you’ll get used to the joys and sick of the sorrows whatever they are, and you’ll be ungrateful and bored and dissatisfied in some measure some of the time and you’ll have to work on all the things you have to work on anyways and just. Yeah! It doesn’t make that big of a difference! Even the biggest things!

Does anyone know of any aroace identities that are centered on fluctuations of both gender attraction and aroace feelings? Like I never feel allosexual/alloromantic, but aceflux specifically is about the gender of attraction not changing but for me it does! It never goes outside of aroace which is why I don’t feel abroseuxal fits me, but surely I can’t be the only person who feels this way right? xD

Okay I’m adding two more resolutions for 2025. I am exclusively mood-reading books, which means no TBR and no regimented planned reading, and I am also refusing to wear anything I don’t want to wear

[trashisstillhere]

Any crossover ship with Randy you can think of?

Oh uh idk! I am aware of the other crossover ships with Randy, seen many kinds of art before (some so good) but I don’t really have my own one in particular!..

Honestly, I don’t really have any crossover ships of any kind at all! I have nothing against them, in fact, I find them to be fun especially when it’s two characters whose dynamics can fit so well together! I just don’t ship much of them.

but that’s only cuz I ain’t much of a shipper like the younger me kinda used to be, so I’m like this with normal ships too lol.

Yesterday I watched Cartoon Saloon’s short “Screecher’s Reach”, and thought Daal’s hair was almost exactly like how I envision Mathilde Lachance’s hair, so I decided to try and draw her. Today I stopped cleaning up the sketch after about an hour because I got bored, so it’s going here.

i think it’s really funny how growing up i didn’t understand social interaction to the point i never even realised i didn’t understand social interaction/social rules and cues/children things. like there’s a plethora of social things that are “normal” that i never got to do growing up. ive only recently realised this by the way bc university forces me to talk with people and i have a lot of difficulty Talking With Them. not in a socially anxious way (im not) but like. with tone and meaning and wording and being blunt. lol im extremely straightforward and people 1. do not like that 2. don’t think i’m being serious (?). sometimes i feel like i live in a different world why do people don’t understand what im saying. anyway random and i’m rambling but i’ve been thinking about this

[switchytransboy]

2nd message into a conversation w someone here and i was indirectly being asked what’s in my pants bc they wanted to know “what kind of person they were talking to”

… as far as i’m concerned i’m just a trans guy and that’s pretty obvious. but “what kind of person” just made me feel like more of an object.

i’m not one for call out posts unless it’s something REALLY bad so while i won’t be saying who this was, if it wasn’t already obvious, please NEVER ask not even just trans people but ANYONE what genitals they have.

i didn’t know it was necessary information to have in order to, not even just engage in tickles, but have a conversation first??? like damn.

Hi sorry just thinking about the absurdity of there being fucking ATHEIST CATS in Warrior Cats when cat heaven is UNDENIABLY REAL and gives four members of their society NINE LIVES and you can watch them DIE and then COME BACK TO LIFE

It’s been years since I read the books and I can’t access my copy of The Darkest Hour but I’m pretty sure CLOUDTAIL was the one fighting Scourge when Firestar literally got up after being DEAD and got right back into the battle, HOW do you stay an atheist after witnessing someone get fucking resurrected right in front of you 😭😭😭
