Me as palace cleaner or something during Odysseus:

"Well hello sir nice to see you again. I can see that you are doing some murder.

Could i interest you with a list of people that you should do something about? Yes? Excellent.

So this one dude called ur wife a tranp and.... you killed him already? Good, good. I can tell everyone who cheered for him when he said it."

RULES OF BEING OTHERKIN #1

Being authentic and true to yourself is the only way you are 'supposed to be/act like' (insert entity). If anyone else disagrees it only tells you about them.

We can hold hands while we write the oviposition kink fic that our brains are wrongly trying to convince us is Too Weird if you want 💜

Deal. Always here for supportive hand-holding! Especially over kinky fic.

(The Hob in my head also insists it's Not Too Weird every time I ponder the idea, and the Dream in my head usually tries to make it weirder)

*yeets this and runs*

My hand regrets my decision to try for more realistic wings, frankly

Transcriptions:

Mabel Pines - Steller's Jay

Dipper Pines - Blue Jay

fledglings

can't quite fly yet

wing's aren't adult-sized yet

Dipper often forgets to preen

Mabel likes to put glitter in her wings (and Dipper's, when possible)

Dipper collects his primaries to make quill pens

Mabel collects their feathers for crafting

Yeah so I'm just gonna drop this here and uhhhhh run, thanks for checking this, and I hope you have a good day

(program: krita; time taken: about 1 hr 45 minutes)

WAIT WAIT ARE YOU TELLING ME DEMETER HAS AN EPITHET REFERENCING VENGENFUL FURIES?! WAHT??? >:D!?!

asdfghjkl thank you! really glad u like her lol shes becoming my favouritest to doodle lol. also not at all! i really love that you kept the aspect of her grief that so many are keen to twist to villainise her or erase completely to invalidate her. both are awful imo

heres a quote from le ask (soon i promise 😭😂): "Demeter and Persephone share a strong bond compared to the other gods. After Persephones "death" Demeter was never really the same. Demeter relives the painful cycle annually, and carries a deep rooted bitterness toward the other gods for it."

--

i actually think its hilarious and awesome to see that demeter can be herself with those shes close with (one of my favourite things in characterisations is when you have what seems to be a stern and serious presenting person breaking character at a dumb or inappropriate joke or something to that affect, it kills me everytime its so funny!)

anyway demeter is NOT not be confused with gaia (my girl knows how to have fun lol). but much like the rest of us shes got issues to work with and experiences to heal and grow from *finger guns*. 10/10 i think u did her justice. so much so i drew this for u hehe

under no cicumstances should she meet micheal scott lmao. humanity will never hear the end of "thats what _ said" jokes. ever.

her hair is lime green btw the light is making her blonde :/

More notes for Roach conlanging. Roach has grammatical gender, in which only Male, Female, and Object are grammatical genders, whereas Worker uses feminine grammar, Queen and King use a slight variant on feminine grammar, and Drone, and Queen-Alate use masculine grammar. This is because King is derived from Queen, due to their similar positions in a colony, and Queen-Alate is derived from Drone, as both are forms of alate.

Queen is an alteration of feminine grammar that functionally just adds a handful of extra syllables to it, and King is an offsprout of Queen that uses the same grammar with different pronouns. Queen-Alate, despite the name, is derived from Drone, as they are both for referring to different types of alate ant.

Most Roach dialects are intelligible to speakers of Snakemouth Den Cordyceps Roach, but Snakemouth Den Cordyceps Roach is not entirely intelligable to speakers of Roach dialects due to a mix of the excessively specialized vocabulary caused by the specific needs of its speakers, the fact that its speakers do not necessarily have Roach mouthparts and thus may not pronounce syllables in a similar way, and due to the fact that Inanimate Object is a full grammatical gender that does not exist in any other dialect of roach and replaces a decent chunk of terminology for things that previously had Other Words For Them.

// If I block you: Leave me alone. Don't make an alt account asking why I blocked you, don't ask one of your friends to ask me why I blocked you, NONE of that.

I have boundaries. If you make me uncomfortable in any way, I have the right to block you and never associate with you ever again. That's what blocking is for. I do not owe any of you anything nor do I have to give you a reason as to why I blocked you.

Guys, I am a college student. I have a job. I am very busy outside of this account. I use the little free time I have to be here. I'm here to have fun, NOT to put up with stupid drama.

I have had people harrass me because I blocked them, recieved suggestive asks (Cyn is a MINOR), and someone has legitimently threatened to hurt me all because of the character I portray. I am too nice of a person to put with with shit like this.

If I block you, forget about me. There are millions of people on this site and billions of people in the world. Go talk to someone else.

And if you happen to be someone I blocked and you're somehow reading this: Get off my page right now. Interfering with me now will only make things worse. If you're smart, you'll get away from my account and leave me alone.

what i really enjoy about the beginner's guide is that davey (the character) does not play any of coda's games as they were meant to be played.

he is always finding some way to subvert them because he either has 1) no patience for coda's antics and/or 2) he already has an assumed idea of what the game should be about, and he forces that idea onto the game. it's like coda says: davey puts lamp posts in all his games, bc the lamp post symbolizes a meaning.

the lamp post does not mean anything; it itself is a symbol of meaning. davey projects hard onto coda, supposes that because he sees himself in coda's games, coda must also be depressed, anxious, he must also hate himself.

that must be the only explanation for any of them.

and it just. boggles my mind how the beginner's guide is always taken very literally, when it's really just an exploration on the relationship btwn a person and the art they're consuming; how someone who likes something can see that thing not for what it is, but what they think it to be.

pretty please, my fellow progressives

Could we please all keep in mind that the concept of "The Jews In General, or A Specific Type Of Jew, Controls Education, Government, Media, and/or Banking", is a longstanding antisemitic trope?

And most of all, that it is false??

No, a marginalized group does not also control education, the government, the media, and/or banking?

No, Jews do not secretly control these things and just pretend to be marginalized? No, Jews have not secretly been accumulating power since the Holocaust, granted by too-generous gentiles, out of pity?

No, it isn't better if you just mean a specific subgroup or kind of Jews. It's still specifically Jews.

It's like when people who hate trans/queer people are fine with rich white cis gay men. So they think it's not bigoted to blame "people with blue hair and pronouns" for the downfall of society.

We all know this means, "I only see some of you as human like me. You have to speak and act a certain way to count. Everyone in your group has to pass a test to get into the Good group."

Doesn't work.

Sure, it gives them plausible deniability to the people who matter to them. But everyone else can see exactly how they feel.

We've all known for years that it's bad to think of a marginalized group as having some "good ones." Rein it the heck in, please.

Because YES, all of those examples are ones I've seen implied, or stated outright, over and over, within the progressive community. This month alone.

Sorry don’t mind me just thinking about the way qpac waited for qfit to be ready, then qfit waited for qpac to come home, and now they’re making up for all the waiting by breaking down the walls and going full unashamed simp for each other. when they start using pet names and saying “I love you” I’m gonna combust.

Like say what you want about it, but I for one am ONE HUNDRED PERCENT ON BOARD with hideduo’s new dynamic. ONE HUNDRED PERCENT.

Yes, I do say “these mfing gays I swear” like 600 times per stream but a) I was already doing that and b) I LOVE IT. I hope they get worse

[quackurucho]

i think its very funny how embarrassingly down bad cquackity was for ccharlie Immediately right off the bat. maybe its just their limited improv/semi-lore screentime that enhances the feeling but like he literally just took him, taught him how to gamble for like 40 minutes and then immediately started saying shit like “you are my best friend you are the greatest friend that i have”. there was NOTHING gradual or reluctant about it he pretty much leaped into his arms without question

[millenniumringg]

anyone remember these guys…

[duusheen]

you're happy here, right?
