#the only way i feel like i can prove im not that is if i get really good at something. but truly nothing inspires me. nothing brings me joy

[kkoffin]

that is absolutely not what a “claim” means. this is second hand embarrassing and i’m only replying to point how hilarious it is that you so confidently state obviously incorrect things.

on one hand, i hope you’ve graduated high school because i’d feel bad making fun of you otherwise, but on the other hand, the idea of adults who so boldly state misinformation as fact being out and about with a high school diploma is scary and makes me fear the state of the education system.

if you’re looking at the formal oxford definition, you missed the word “typically”. as in: common usage. not genuine meaning. you’ll also see “without providing evidence or proof” not “without having evidence or proof” or “there is no evidence or proof” like you state. if you have a look at it’s noun definition, we see “an assertion that something is true”, which is more accurate to the actual meaning of the word. it’s just an assertion of fact.

it’s very disturbing that you genuinely seem to believe something being called a “claim” means it’s false. ironically; it reeks of someone who’s chronically online and lacks much formal education. the most simple example i can provide is the beginning of many proceedings being through a “statement of claim”, as in making a claim that the other party has done something. before i wrote the word “claim” i actually thought about it, but i figured no one would be stupid enough to argue that a “claim” means something is false. i underestimated the internet yet again.

also yes, i’m not addressing the rest because debating it is entirely insignificant to me, as i stated. i can send all day collecting my posts talking about advocacy for Afghanistan or reproductive rights, or sourcing books written by radfems about racism and class, but im not going to spend my time proving that to someone who’s demonstrated such awful faith in arguments. i have better things to do. im not an idiot. also, finally, you’ve entirely misinterpreted “there is nothing there at all” - i wasn’t referring to discussions existing or not existing, i was referring to there not even being straws to grasp at. i thought that, too, was pretty clear.

i can’t tell if your arguments are just in horribly bad faith or if they’re genuinely based in such a lack of understanding. either way: i highly recommend you get off tumblr and go read a book. unless your next reply is nearly as laughable as this one, i will ignore it.

I will just never take men seriously when they complain or they're upset by "it's a girl or an abortion" because sure, okay, let's say it's hateful, hurtful, that it's "murder" even, if you want. Let's just say it's misandry, it's bigoted, sexist, whatever you want. Say "men are oppressed", anything.

But where were you when we were discussing the (at minimum) 20 million missing baby girls in china? What do you call that, then?

[smallestapplin]

Chase

Chase is a bot you can basically top from the bottom and he perfers it that way, he likes you telling him what to do he likes when you praise him, give him direction. He is the most obident mech you will ever meet, he could be thrusting into you but the second you tell him to pause he will, and he will without a single complaint even if his spike is wrapped around your wet heat, threatening to make him overload.

* It’s difficult to ask him for much riskier behaviors, however you found out by accident he is a vouyer and is ashamed of how hard he gets watching you touch yourself or fuck yourself with your toys. He was beside himself with guilt when you found out, he couldn’t bare to face you knowing he had seen you at such a moment without you knowing, but was left shocked when you informed him how hot that was.

* Speak of, he sees it as both a reward and a punishment when you make him sit at the end of his berth and make him watch you touch yourself and get yourself off without his help. It’s a reward cause he’s delighted you trust him so much, and he gets to see you in such a lewd state! A punishment because he desperately wants to lick you clean and feel you cum around his spike.

* PRAISE! please praise him, he needs to hear you tell him how good he is for you, that he’s yours, that he makes you feel good, he wants to feel wanted and desired.

* However, on the flip side of things he can very RARELY be the dominate party, Chase is very strict about rules, boundaries, acts and given your permission, if you were to break one of the following you will be dealt a swift punishment befitting of the crime, whether that’s warming his spike when you are so close to cumming, being denied for a week, being overstimulated, or a spanking. Though he also expects the same in return, even if he never has trouble obeying you and your orders.

* Truthfully if you can manage, Chase would adore a day collar, something casual and lowkey to go out and do his job in but still signal your trust, bond, and commitment.

* He is awful at hints or subtle gestures, but sometimes you can’t tell if it that or he just likes you grabbing his face and telling him to fuck you even more. This alos ties into his want and need for heavy eye contact, he needs to be staring directly at you into your soul while loving you.

Blades

Yes he is the prettiest boy, please tell him all about it and how much you love him! Blades likes a nice mix of praise and degradation, if you’re going to call him a slut or shareware make sure to put ‘my’ in front of it first, or he gets so pouty when you don’t and it makes himi want to prove himself to you so much more. He is a whiny princess, he whimpers pathetically for you and begs so pretty too, he just wants to be your good boy or your filthy whore.

* loud, very loud, you need to be careful when fucking him cause he is vocal, I hope you have a big garage or your own hanger, because having sex with Blades at the firehouse is a risky gamble. Either he is loud and someone hears, or you can manage to gag him, but then it muffles all his slutty cries. Wings fluttering, face bright blue as his optics roll back, biting down on his mesh pillow with tears rolling down his face cause it feels so good!

* Switch, he can truly lean into whatever role you want him to fill, he can be your trembling whining bottom begging for you to ride his spike more and play with his valve, or he can be your needy top who loses control when shoving his spike into your greedy hole, unable to stop his hips and blabbering about how good you feel and how close he is to overloading.

* His wings are sensitive, so very sensitive, even just a few gentle brushes of your hand against them is already making transfluid leak from behind his modesty panel, nip at them or drag your nails across you will have him overloading within second with a squeal.

* He cries a lot during sex, it just feels too good! And he’s very vocal in letting you know he’s enjoying himself, the closeness, the passion, the trust, the vulnerablity, he’s a mess for it and even feral for it. He says that, then attempts to be a brat once, but you were quick to find out how much he hates (and loves) edging, he sobs loudly and strains his voice box to plead with you to let him cum, he’s a good boy! He’ll behave he swears! It’s the hardest orgasm he has, and he grows hooked.

* Blades is however also addicted to tasting your cum and will beg to go down on you as much as he possibly can, you can get him to do any task so long as you offer yourself up as the prize, and whatever it is will be done so fast it’ll make your head spin.

* His favorite positions are ones where he can look at you, he doesn’t even have to look in your eyes he just wants to see you, whether thats between his thighs lapping at his valve, riding his spike, or letting him take you frome behind, Blades just loves seeing your body jiggle with each thrust, he loves the softness of your body compared to the harden metal of his own.

Heatwave

MENACE, your hole is not safe from this mech and in fact neither is any location, common room, his habsuite, the Sigma, the woods, literally anywhere Heatwave can have a moment with you is not safe, nearly every inch of the bunker has had his transfluid and your juices on it, but he is very thorough in his clean up. Heatwave is not one to mess around, he is feral in his affection for you, and while he maybe a little awkward showing it to you in a softer sense, he has no issues bending you over any surface.

* Another mech who is feral for your holes, he’s a big fan of overstimulation but mostly a fan of leaving marks on you in someway, he is gentle and careful of course, but don’t be surprised when you have some big hickeys, servo prints on your thighs, and bite marks on your inner thighs and stomach.

* Teasing him is dangerous, especially if it’s before the team revealed themselves to the town. You can feel his optics on you, taking in ever last move you make, the sway of your hips, the little pats to his leg you give him while conversing with other townsfolk, the flirty smile you give him from across the venue. Just know afterwards he’s caging you between him and the wall while pounding into you, growling out swears and how “you’re such a slaggin’ tease, filthy fraggin shareware, huh? Be good and overload for me. We aren’t stopping until you remember you’re mine.”

* Heatwave loves a good mating press, at least as close as he can get with his size compared to yours, loves holding your legs up and pushing as far up as they can go, just to fuck you deeper. His engine purring and interal fans whirling to cool him down, sweating coolant, but still smirking down at your fucked out form.

* He has a mild jealously problem, which leads to his ‘yes no’ relationship with exhibitionism, yes he absolutely wants someone to see how he fucks you, let them see how well trained you are for his spike, but also NO, he wants no one else to see you like this this is for his optics only. A result of this is he’s leaned more towards taking you to his old ship and mounting you over the control panels, recording your little couplings in there just to get it out of his system.

* Don’t let him find out about your toys, you’d think he’d get jealous but no, in fact he now wants to modify a few so he can have easier control of them, namely your vibrators, mostly a bullet vibrator you have, just so he can have you wear it out and about while the have it so he can control it without the remote to it.

* Also a big fan of doing things a more cybertronian way, whenever he gets a chance to drive around just you and him, he wants you to feel up his interior, maybe move into the back and strip for him, let him watch you play with yourself before mass shifting a little so he can stuff you with his thick spike.

* Lives and loves to manhandle you, bend you any which way he can, fold you in half, flip you over, anything that lets him fuck you deeply. But even with his rough fucking he takes great pride in cleaning you up and soothing you with a purr of his engine.

failure and futility

[dykedvonte]

I keep seeing fanarts of ppl's OC's being on the ship, so do you think that if there was 6st crewmember (specifically, another woman) Anya would've been more safe? Like, someone to actually call Jimmy's begaviour out, someone Anya might wanna trust? Is there a possibility something might have changed (even if a little) or it would not have mattered at all?

-💀

I feel like the game would make it part of the commentary on where she would believe and help Anya but still be sort of dismissive? Like the whole “don’t waste time crying and being scared keep going and move on, don’t let him win”. It’s supposed to be positive and reinforcing but sometimes it does more damage in those times of mourning and grief, it feels patronizing, like you don’t understand what you’re going through but they do. Even if they did call out his behavior it’s still on Curly to act and while another voice would help, it’s still 4 against 2 on guys that don’t get it until they have to vs women who always have to.

I don’t mind mouthwashing OCs but I do get a bit bored as they tend to be borderline saviors or like Jimmy aligned. They are either more complicit than Curly or just Jimmy haters for no reason, outside of what the creators know about what he did to Anya. I am never irked by OCs but in a story like mouthwashing you really need to think about what your character adds to the commentary, especially if they are there during the crash. It’s nice to have like characters on Anya’s side more whole heartedly and interesting to see characters who placate Jimmy but sometimes it’s one note.

I can’t and don’t want to police peoples OCs it’s never my intention when I comment on trends I notice, but I do feel like the way people make their OCs interact with these two characters and especially Curly, really show a grave misunderstanding of the narrative and these characters as people vs roles in the story. Still, I know people just make up characters for fun and that’s fine. Great even, but I guys I’m focusing more on OCs that are supposed to have those serious dynamics. My favs tend to be pretty-Tulpar or post-Tulpar au OCs.

The inevitably of the crash is on Jimmy. He did that not because he wasn’t stopped but because all his means to kill Anya were taken. The gun, the axe. Even if Curly did strip him of his co-pilot privileges and try to keep him contained there’s only so many people. An extra body helps but they have jobs they have to do, he’s the only one steering the whole ship and Jimmy would likely have an out: food, bathroom, etc. He’s not new and if he couldn’t crash the ship directly, who’s to say he wouldn’t sabotage something else? A clunker like the Tulpar wouldn’t take much. An extra person helps but it’s just another thing that prolongs what a person like Jimmy is willing to do to shirk responsibility.

It’s more than just needing someone to stand up to him and think that’s what is missing when it comes to inserting a character into the mouthwashing setting.

certainly feeling some things about the fact that simon. bullied edwin, yes, because he clocked him being gay. but not out out of hatred for him because of it. instead it was because he thought edwin was cute and felt sad and confused by edwin not paying attention to him. because simon is also gay. that is some beautiful and tragic storytelling and such a good way to come back around and give edwin some amount of closure on that chapter of his life wow

See the thing is. I know I'm good at writing. Like I have my weak areas or things I need to improve in, but it's not a skill I otherwise spend a lot of time feeling insecure about because a) if I don't believe in my writing literally who will b) if I want to publish my writing I ought to at least feel a resting level of good about it because editors and agents likely will not be cradling my face like a prize cat and telling me how talented I am while asking for their edits c) I've always had an audience for my writing even at its worst– I started sharing my original works online when I was around 16 & that really helped sell to me the idea of 'there will always be someone out there who likes what you do' d) untalented men never think this hard about the quality of their works and they always end up published anyway and e) I don't have many other thoroughly developed skills so why not have one I feel good about. Having said this. Awkward feeling to realize you're one of the authorial weak links in your postgraduate creative writing degree's social circle

Shinjiham is cute when it’s romantic but tbh I think i vastly prefer the idea of them being best friends instead. Like, neither of them really saw it coming and weren’t really looking to get another best friend (Shinji has Akihiko, Kotone has Junpei and Yukari respectively) but it happens anyway. Kotone takes a liking to Shinji much faster than she does anyone else and I’d say a big reason is just the fact that he’s so reserved that it allows Kotone to do most of the talking while he just listens and they love this arrangement cuz Kotone doesn’t get to talk about her own interests very much. Though I think some of her needs to talk to Shinji stems from this insecurity that he isn’t happy in the group and she has this people pleasing problem and wants everyone to be happy so she makes a much bigger effort to talk to Shinji. And it’s very unfortunate because Shinji intentionally acts cold and distant because he doesn’t want to form any attachments because he wants to die soon, but aaaaaaaagh dammit this girl just keeps talking to him and being sweet and encouraging him to engage in his interests and share them with the others and he just can’t seem to say no when she’s got those damn puppy eyes. And Kotone is just able to get him out of his shell by being persistent but not in an overwhelming way, she’s very cheerful and supportive of him. And Shinji is able to offer her support by encouraging her to talk about herself and by making sure she’s taking care of herself. They just click really well and make such a positive dent in each other’s lives and it’s all about basic acts of kindness going a long way you know?

Sorry I intended to keep about 400 miles from this discourse but what do you fucking mean that people heard the guy who made fake screenshots against an artist justify it using "Oh its to show that callout culture is bad and that you people were too quick to believe them." and just went yeah that sounds right you have a good point callouts are bad but youre just showing that we support what youre doing actually Really just proves to me that at best the average person who never shuts the fuck up about "cancel culture" is either a remarkable idiot or a massive hypocrite provided you say the right cue words at them

[uncanny-tranny]

There's this pull in recovery to feel behind in comparison to your peer group, and that's, of course, a valid feeling. It's understandable, but I think a lot of what we don't remember is that... they often aren't starting out in the same place you are.

I think part of the reason so many feel terrible about "being behind" is that it feels like we have to blame ourselves for being behind. If you just weren't affected by it, you'd be right where your peers are, right? It's a way to blame yourself in severe cases.

Recovery isn't about "catching up," I think. It's about pressing the play button and letting yourself live. You might never "catch up," you might never be at the "same level," but that fundamentally doesn't change that your life is worth living how you want it to.

cannot believe AK is leaving mr!...... gayest nini i have come across to date. no one is doing it like her

[dlstmxkakwldrlarchive]

no the spotify wrapped thing is crazy cause no one except jjinggus i know has him in it tbh circle was one of the best releases ever not in shinee solos but in kpop its sad to see he isn't as appreciated by the fandom itself too not to mention flow was another master piece too which is super under appreciated

spotify wrapped stats aside. i really think shinee music (as soloists and as a group) really suffers because they're (considered idk?) idol music, and the fanbase behaves the way it does as a consequence. like i think we can't really have convos about music bcs half of the shawols aren't here for that anyway so its not surprising that circle gets the ugly child treatment along a lot of shinee group albums too ofc
