#this is not directed towards anyone in particular

[shitpostingsapphic]

Hi folks.

So it's come to my attention that there's a user on here by the name of @identityflawed and usually I'm not one to tag a user outright to inadvertently encourage strangers seeking them out, but this particular user is fine with doing such with others after, frankly, HORRENDOUS and UNCALLED FOR insults and hatred for the work they put in towards a piece of fan material. And they also prefer to be called outright. So, sweetheart, this one's for you.

This user has directly targeted the author of the popular and successful Caitvi fantiction titled "cerulean eyes for the wounded soul", a WWII based AU on our favorite lesbians, with Vi being an American fighter pilot and Caitlyn being a french countryside widow. What it boils down to is a whole lot of nothing words that slander the writing, insult the author, and have the audacity to say they could have done it better. So much so that they TAKE THE IDEA and "revamp it" to their liking.

Not only is their criticism completely unwarranted and not even criticism but more outright degradation of the hard work the author put forth, but it's a complete disrespect of the fanfiction community at large. Fanfiction comes purely out of the creativity of random people like me and you. Fanfiction writers aren't paid for their work, and thus the dedication required to even put out works like Cerulean Eyes should be commended. Needless to say, the work has been commended, due to its success.

I can only pinpoint the behavior of @identityflawed as that of a jealous and vindictive sorry excuse of a human being who has nothing better to do than tear people down while lazily stealing their ideas to compensate for their lack of creativity and their desperation to feel something besides insecurity.

You pretend to be a respectful individual by slapping a "no hard feelings?" equivalent of a statement at the end of a dissertation length hate letter TO THE AUTHOR about a work they dedicated months of time and energy towards. No sane person could ever call that respect. And implying that it's okay to harass an author to their mental health's detriment because "they should be strong enough to take it if they want to be on the internet" is, in a word, vile.

Darling, if you didn't like the fic, that's fine. Your vocal opinion is not needed. The possession of an opinion is not an indication that it needs to be shared. Learn some humility and keep your fucking mouth shut before you waste precious brain cells and oxygen that would be better used by other more deserving individuals.

I encourage anyone who comes across this post to block the user, and/or not to use abusive and violent language, but to feel free to speak your mind otherwise to them. They invited such words be directed to them. I see no reason not to fulfill their wishes.

Though, blocking might do the trick. The amount of traffic they get is meager at best. Jealousy is truly a hell of a drug.

PSA

hi it's mod dawn here. i need to address something. i wrote this out in the tags on one post but i'll reiterate. when it comes to any of my ask/roleplay blogs, i CANNOT uphold established romantic relationships with anyone in character. this means the characters cannot say yes to being your s/o (dating or married). flirting is fine. it can be funny and sweet to interact like that. but i have to set the boundary there.

when the characters are 'reciprocating' your flirting, it is not to give false hope, nor is it supposed to be something sad. it's not a shane thing, it's a ME thing. there is a real person behind this. i do not feel comfortable roleplaying a romantic relationship, and i apologize if that makes people feel like the character is leading anyone on. it isn't my intention. if this boundary does not sit well with you, you are free to unfollow me. all that to say, please don't take the blog(s) too seriously. i just feel the need to make this clear due to some lingering concerns lately. thank you for listening.

Another slightly less friendly reminder: If you fastpass, great!

TAG YOUR SPOILERS.

k im sorry this even has to be said but trans people being neglected by suicide hotlines is not fucking unique to TMA people, how the fuck can any of yall believe this without putting in an ounce of critical thinking??

We're getting to the point where are people that really actually think that someone being classified as TME just makes every fucking thing in their life magically easier, to the point where you got folks ACTUALLY thinking TME people got it better when it comes to SUICIDE.

"TME" PEOPLE FUCKING KILL THEMSELVES ALL. THE. TIME.

THEY FUCKING DIE JUST AS TRAGICALLY, GET NEGLECTED BY THEIR LOVED ONES, THEIR PEERS, THEY GET CHEWED UP, SPAT OUT, RAPED, MURDERED, AND DRIVEN TO TAKE THEIR OWN LIFE BY THE SAME SYSTEM THAT TELLS ALL QUEER PEOPLE THAT WE'RE NOT WORTH THE DIRT WE STAND ON.

They want us all dead. All queers, they want all of us to be thrown in the woodchopper.

We're all in this together, whether you like it or not.

I want us all to fucking survive, goddammit!

The reason that transandrophobia is a real, systemic oppression is because both transphobia and misogyny are forces of systemic oppression that greatly affect the lives of transmascs. Misandry need not exist for transandrophobia to; what I call transandrophobia is the intersection of transphobia and misogyny that affects transmascs, as well as anyone perceived to be transmasc or transmasc-adjacent.

I would also argue that transandrophobia usually refers to the way that a combination of transphobia and misogyny are used to speak over transmascs, take away our autonomy, and treat us like objects who don't have opinions on everything that affects us. It's the way that some of us, usually those of us who primarily date cis women, try to be "one of the good ones." It's the way that everyone is immediately suspicious of us being incels, especially if we aren't attracted to women.

It's the way that we are constantly forced into the role of a woman: how we're expected to put up with forcefem "jokes," detransition "jokes," corrective rape "jokes," and other such "jokes." If we don't let people walk all over us, calling us feminine terms, reminding us of our place, that's toxic masculinity. We can't have any relationship to womanhood, either, or else we're creepy men invading women's spaces. But if we reject womanhood entirely, if we exist as men who only love other men; then we're basically the same as MGTOW guys! /s

The difference between us and MRAs is that MRAs are straight, white, and usually able bodied and neurotypical. Meanwhile, transmasc-centered feminists tend to be neurodivergent and/or disabled gay trans men, and there seems to be a good mix of different ethnicities and cultural backgrounds speaking up. The MRA comparison doesn't work because when MRAs don't want to take women seriously, it is from a place of misogyny and often straight privilege. Gay trans men that don't worship cis women in every way are just guys who are tired of being forced to be women. There is a big difference here.

A lot of this new discourse is very much "gay men are more likely than straight men to be misogynists because they don't even like women!" repackaged, except it's not even repackaged. You just added "trans" to the beginning of everything! I don't know why I have to explain to queer discourse Tumblr in the year 2023 that not being attracted to women when you're a man doesn't inherently contribute to misogyny and patriarchy.

Gay trans men aren't making a choice to leave the Good Pure Women's Team and join the Horrible Evil Incel Faggots. Kill the radfem in your brain that believes that queer male identity and sexuality is inherently oppressive. Kill the homophobe in your brain that believes gay men need a woman in their lives to prevent them from going off the deep end. Kill the biphobe in your brain that believes that the only moral thing for an m-spec man to do is to date a good pure woman.

Transitioning is not a calculated choice for the vast majority of transmascs. I do not owe any cis woman the rest of my life spent in emotional pain due to dysphoria in order to make her happy that I'm not one of Those People. No one owes anyone else suppression of their personal identity and desires for gender expression in order to serve someone else's political framework. If your social or political framework does not include someone's identity, that is a problem with your framework, not their identity.

Gay trans men are not predators. Putting "trans" in front of your homophobia doesn't make it less homophobic.

Just a daily reminder: objectively pointing out a characters flaws/expressing dislike of them in a civil manner is NOT the same as attacking ppl who like said character.

I have a policy for just deleting asks game requests/general OC questions made towards Shaw that are founded in the assumption that he’s a generally agressive & loud person, or at least read that way without further context. He is not. Please consider why you would make that assumption about one of the few black male OCs in this community. I don’t blame anyone for doing this if they’re not familiar with his character, or anything, but like. It really does feel gross. Just setting this boundary more publicly so I don’t proceed to get covered in Ooze about it again during the next ask game I do.

ive prided myself on being a 'low maintenance' friend for most of my life but at some point it really does get straight up insulting

[miamignonette]

you try so so hard to tell bisexuals what we can and can’t do because you think we haven’t always been here and haven’t been deeply entrenched in the queer community since its birth and you think it’s a switch we can turn on and off as if being queer doesn’t shape who you are as a person but i’ll be a femme bisexual dyke and i’ll call out biphobia coming from other queer people and you’ll just have to live with it i guess because it’s my right and it has always been my right

No one is calling Thrawn a saint 😂😭 We're calling him traumatized and that the Ascendancy made him into who he was, which is fucked up af. Thrawn would not be who he is if the Ascendancy never fucked him up, is what we're saying

Look man I know not every Thrawn fan sees him as a good guy who did nothing wrong. I was not addressing fans like you. I've made posts about how the Ascendancy is fucked up, if anything I AGREE with you there. But in the past I have seen people who view him as morally right and the type of guy to do the morally correct thing in every given scenario. That is what I disagree with, not the idea that Thrawn is nuanced.

According to Spotify, the song Marie plays is by J.S Bach, but do you know which it is?

Disregard my previous ask, I figured it out And I think I was wrong in that it was the song Marie played in Notre Dame, because the English version of the song is "Pass the Musical Examination test", so maybe it was the song she played to get into the Versailles. The song is actually Air on a G string, by J. S. Bach

Hi! The official translations for the OST are up on the Rhythm Thief Wiki and on iTunes. The rhythm game you're referring to is R24 where Marie is attempting to get into Versailles, and on the OST it is called "Trying Tryouts (Air on the G)." The one in the Notre Dame is from R07, and the rhythm game and track are both titled "Moon Princess."

If you have any more questions, let me know!

While Komugi is very far from being my favorite in Wonderful PreCure (I have a fear of dogs irl so it doesn't really help my case) I don't dislike her whatsoever and think a lot of the criticisms made against her are... not it

some of my mutuals have the maturity i strive to have, but alas, i am too stupid and silly
