Liam in Kujou Tenn’s VALIANT outfit for the TRIGGER LIVE CROSS VALIANT concert (because I can’t help myself with these crossovers with Soma voicing both characters)

I referenced the version specifically made for the concert too because they had such gorgeous details and sparkle✨, if you wanna see some clips of the concert check there’s here and here! Bonus doodle is also because there’s a point during the concert where Soma holds the camera as if holding the viewer’s face and then winks at them too, like excuse me????

another really fun (stupid as fuck) thing staff has done to the dashboard is removing the username of the person you reblogged from if they appear anywhere in the body of the post

there's a bigass fucking void where the username of the reblogged blog should go. why? for what purpose?

it's bc anthonyampersand reblogged it from halftype, the last commenter. the fact is that if you reblog a post from anyone who appears in the post, whether it be OP or another commenter, or even yourself, it just does not show the username. it is quite possibly the biggest fuck you i can imagine to everyone complaining about losing prev tags, bc now you can't even tell who prev even was.

Sightseeing Log entry #22 :: Summerford Farms

"The orange groves of Summerford Farms were fun to explore, even more fun to get to experience when it came to cooking. With the fresh fish we managed to catch while we were at the Woad Whisper Canyon, I made a tangy orange glaze that helped to flavor the fish we ate. Overall, a nice meal to share when Estinien and I watched the setting sun."

No. No no no no absolutely hell no.

(Diane Duane this is about tumblr not you you’re great)

Apparently tumblr has decided to give us note previews at the bottom of posts now and I hate it. Partly it’s annoying; if I wanted to see notes and replies I would click on the notes! The button’s right there! It takes an extra 0.2 second! This just clutters up the post layout without adding any functionality. But it’s also terrifying, because it is once again trying to make tumblr like other social media.

It’s trying to say “here is this Cool Thing (in our algorithmically-informed view). You don’t think/know yet you want to look at this Cool Thing but we know you want to look at this Cool Thing, because we know better than you what you should be looking at.”

See, this note is not the most recent note by a long shot, but it is by dduane/Diane Duane, who has been on tumblr a long time, pops up fairly regularly in the Star Trek fandom, and has written actual official Trek novels (among many other things). She’s probably the most “famous” note on this post (or what passes for famous/popular on tumblr). I’m guessing it’s not a coincidence hers was the note featured.

A quick look through the “tumblr update” tag shows people are also having issues like seeing terf comments previewed even though that’s the sort of content they would never willingly look at.

@staff @support​ @wip​ no thank you. We’re all still here because tumblr is the one social media that lets us choose what we see, not the algorithm. Get rid of note previews or give us a switch to turn them off. We don’t want them here.

Could I ask what difference between transgender and transsexual is? I ask this as a trans person who wants to start using the term "transsexual," but I'm not sure if it denotes anything beyond what I've been using the term "transgender" for (i.e. not aligning with my birth sex/gender identity).

I like transsexual better as it's what our trans-cestors used, and it's a word that is so much "punchier" than transgender is, and I don't feel the same kind of "weird" when the label is applied to me. I'm just worried that these are "fake" reasons or something. Thank you, and sorry!

Honestly, I think there are more similarities between "transsexual" and "transgender" as transsexual as a term was introduced first, and then transgender replaced it

Transsexual has had a history of being used for people who were medically transitioning during a point where transness was heavily pathologized and medicalized... but I personally don't think that cis people should be allowed to sully words like that, and I really don't think that we need to stick by those ridged rules. Isn't the reason transness is so "scary" because we break those "ridged rules" so often? But I digress.

I think some people have different outlooks on their transition, and that's where the transsexual/transgender labels can help. For me, I identify as transsexual because I think it most accurately describes my relationship with my transition.

The most important thing is to not force people in or out of labels they identify with - which is why I want anybody who wants to ID as transsexual do so. So many people ID as such - trans elders, young trans people, people who are medically transitioning, people who aren't. I think a lot of why people are attracted to this word is because of political reclamation, as in reclaiming the word for political reasons, to show the word how viscerally human you are. That's part of the reason I decided to use it, at least.

Bad time of it, all things considered (Patreon)

[tuituipupu]

my dad went to uravishun with me last year bc my sister couldn't come w/ me bc of exams at the last minute.

at first he didn't want to go (he raised me on the contest?) but now he will never stop talking about how much he enjoyed it last year.

which is fine.

but he knows i boycotted this year, and why it was important i did this. i politely asked him to stop talking to me about the songs, which he respected.

and then this morning he asked if i would BE INTERESTED IN GOING TO SWITZERLAND NEXT YEAR? UM? FUCK NO?

i love my dad, but sometimes i'm just like ?????

How many things do you think need to be set on fire to disrupt capitalism enough to create a livable society? Asking for a friend

[gu6chan]

maybe its sample bias but i think it's kinda funny how most people I've seen who've played drakengard because of nier are making ending e THE endgoal and more often than not the main if not only reason they're playing the game at all and when they finally get it they're like "this is it the single most impactful, greatest moment of all gaming. im wiping tears from my eyes this is it" and then you see the drakengard fans who've played drakengard because they like drakengard and you ask them about ending e and they're like "eh. it was okay, i guess"
