Letterpress print on black linen cloth. 24point clearface heavy. This took 4 hours to set the type btw.

Text reads: “I fantasize about a dildo with nerve endings. I type "how to fuck a partner with my clitoris" into the search bar. The results are articles & reddit posts with tips for helping your boyfriend find your clit. I realy think str8 folks should have to search through dozens of search results about Dyke sex before finding whatever they were actually looking for. Anyway. I imagine pulling my leather harness over my hips, the black silicone connecting just above my clit. They kiss me and trace the scars on my chest. They let me touch them & they touch my silicone, they guide me inside of them. I'm not sure what this would feel like, A dildo with nerve endings does not yet exist. But I know it would be as close to heaven as i'll get.”

crazy how one day you get hired to play a bit part where you disappear before the third act and a couple of years later Jim Carrey super-explodes because he's saving his world (you)

[foxx-queen]

so about the choice in act 3. I feel like the writers wanted to do the suicide mission from me2 AND the companion choice from me1. which clashes at its core because the whole point of the me2 mission was that if you did all the companion quests and worked for it, you could keep everyone alive. and I get wanting the shock of having one of the companions die no matter what, but at this point in the game after the obvious set up, it just feels like one of those haHA surprise! moments

then there's the fact that it's between davrin and harding. the black man and the fan favourite from dai. like it feels so stacked against davrin at that point.

I picked davrin first, and then I went back and picked harding, thinking maybe that was the right choice to keep her alive. and here's where the whole choice gets even worse for me, because harding, instead of using her stone magic, the actual thing that would give her an advantage against ghilan'nain, she climbs up to the exact same spot as davrin, and uses her bow. she tries to use arrows against a giant multi-limbed blight enhanced being. it's stupid! of course she dies!

I had expected that if you picked harding, she would use her stone magic, which would distract ghilan'nain because of the history with the titans, giving lucanis enough time to act. it would have worked really well as a continuation of her character arc, and it would tie into her personal quest in a way that would make it clear that the effort we put into doing that was what makes the difference.

but by not doing that and having her die no matter what, it instead feels like it doesn't make sense. davrin, at least, is just a man with a sword. his death here makes sense because he's against impossible odds.

which brings it back to feeling really bad that the choice was between him and harding. because for this sacrifice / loss to make sense, it feels it should be davrin. for this narrative beat to make sense, it should be davrin dying.

it feels like the writers are saying: the correct choice here is davrin. he's the only companion who should die no matter what. to signpost this at the moment you make this choice, we will have the other choice be the fan favourite from dai. because no one will want to risk her potentially dying.

it feels bad. it feels racist. davrin deserved better.

Finally finished the stobotnik Disco Elysium style portraits, and I even made a little video with them 😌

I used this website to do it: https://speech-cabinet.com/

(though I did have to edit the portraits on top on my own- it doesn't support custom portraits yet)

Below is an alt version of Robotniks portrait, and my notes for the drawings if ur into that sorta thing

Haven't seen this pointed out yet but do you know what you can do if you run out of shows to watch? Read a book.

Do you know where you can get free books (and movies, audiobooks, and cds)? Public libraries.

Do you know what is currently under attack by many parts of our government and could really use your support? Public libraries.

The fact that he doesn't turn off the camera until Eclipse Cannon exploded makes me think that he was so nervous about the fact that he's dying and, even though he couldn't see Stone, he wanted to feel like someone is with him. In those last moments people are scared and they don't want to be alone, so he wanted to feel like the person he loved was there with him right now because he was always there.

i feel like sharing some of my haladriel hot takes.

disclaimer: i think the fandom's popular wishes and opinions are valid! it's just that some of my personal preferences differ a bit and i simply want to share!

first of all, listen, we need more freaks in haladriel fandom, i'm sorry, i have to speak my truth!

bc we have a literal haladriel yuri seflcest in the show yet no one goes as insane for it as they should, imo!!!

also, i have a confession. what initially attracted me to haladriel was that galadriel is madly obsessed with taking revenge on sauron whom she perceives as this evil incarnate that she is destined to slay like he is a serpent from hell. yet this aspect of their relationship feels to be forgotten. the whole fandom seems to be altogether stuck in their "halbrand" era dynamic.

another pretty hot take, while everyone seems to want galadriel to realize her feelings for sauron and soften towards him and seduce him, i want her pre-halbrand anger at sauron, her repulsion and abhorrence of him, her hatred to TENFOLD. yeah, ofc i want underneath it all to be a pent-up desire, but to me personally, the outward antagonism and the inward denial would make the undercurrents of desire much more intense and interesting. and her succumbing for a moment (even to her own power as a metaphor for succumbing to him) would feel a lot more satisfying after her abhorring him with her entire being. to me!!!

like, the idea of galadriel rather committing suicide than succumbing to sauron while he, her fated arch-enemy, is desperate to have her? chief's kiss!

and i like that he sees her as his equal, as his only worthy adversary. he doesn't want to tame her or turn her into a tradwife, he wants her as his ally. he is as much attracted to her for her power and ambition as for her light. i think her continuously managing to resist him and her willpower growing stronger make him respect her more, deep down.

like, i would LOVE their push-pull to be extreme. give me sauron obsessively groping to possess galadriel, his worship turning poisonous, and galadriel obsessively opposing and trying to slay sauron!!! I WANT THEM DERANGED!!!

another thing, i don't think their dynamic is about galadriel "fixing" sauron, i think it is about sauron "healing" galadriel. (sauron wishing to heal galadriel + galadriel jumping to her death? a formula for some nurse-patient roleplay. just saying.)

finally, i like gal's sparkly dresses but i need them to put her in a shiny warrior armour again!!!

O fato da depressão/ansiedade ser silenciosa, me deixa aterrorizada. Você pode estar no seu momento mais feliz, em questão de segundos, a chavinha vira e você se encontra num lugar escuro, muito difícil de se sair...

I’m reading a fanfiction where Agent Stone is unofficially indirectly technically but also definitely adopted by the Wachowski Family and now I cannot unsee it.

For some context, the family is trying to figure out how to get Shadow to come to them without forcing him or making him feel pressured or unwanted, and Agent Stone gets involved.

Maddie invites him to dinner, and what I thought was going to be the best overprotective sons defending their loyal and powerful and loving family banter turned into the crackiest family dinner with an unexpecting, slightly grief ridden and emotionally stunted Agent Stone, desperately trying to wrap his head around the three aliens that have been kicking his ass for who knows how long being in a normal family???

With human parents???

Who like, house them and feed them and love them and teach them and nurture them???

And like, do stuff normal parents do in a normal family???

I’ve never felt so estatic since that one time the author my favorite MHA fantasy AU fanfic that got discontinued posted the endings and notes she had for the rest of the fanfiction.

EXAMPLE WITH DIRECT QUOTE FROM THE CHAPTER:

Tails: “Break started on Saturday. One of us can go with him, Mom! Make sure he stays sitting!”

Stone: “Break?”

Maddie: “Fall break. From school.”

Stone: “They go to school, too?”

Tails, rolling his eyes: “If you’re going to be surprised by every normal thing we do with our family, we’re going to be here all night.”

I read the chapter during my Sociology 100 lecture and had to stop many times to keep from laughing.

Stones astonishment at a normal, stable, healthy, albeit non-traditional family, Sonic being Sonic, Knuckles being Knuckles, Tails continuing to be the national treasure that he is, and Maddie and Tom being the patient, understanding parents that we’ve always seen them be.

You can’t buy joy like this. You can only find it on AO3, from people (mostly children, college students, or working class adults) who either have too much time or no time at all and yet somehow still get to share their genius with the entire world.

Reading this shit felt like getting the found family trope injected into my veins through IVF fluid.

Here’s a DIRECT QUOTE from my favorite part of the newest chapter:

Knuckles: “There will never be a truce, and I will never think of you as anything more than a small, weak man with questionable taste in partners.”

*literally like three fucking minutes later, after Knuckles has been fed a well cooked meal from Agent Stone*

Knuckles: “You are a very important and powerful man, and I apologize for what I said before. Mister Robot did not deserve you!”

Agent Stone, who’s probably sweating in three different places and pinching himself to keep from reacting too harshly, and experiencing the worst whiplash of his life: “Um, thanks?”

To Humanity’s_Humbag and Invader_Sam, who are the authors, I commend and thank you for your service to the Sonic Fandom. May the wicked curses of the Ao3 Fanfiction Author always evade you!
