#tw touchy subjects

[linked-maze]

Are there any of your Links who are fatphobic? Of course Warriors and Sky are not but what about the rest? hope this doesn’t come off as rude 😊

oh man Fatphobia??? that can be a touchy subject XD for me there are two ways of fatphobic people- there are the ones that HATE and treat fat people like trash! and think losing weight is sooo easy. Then there are the people who don't hate other fat people but are scared to become fat themselves and have some internalized fatphobia? ( I sometimes struggle with this ) ( if I'm wrong plz do tell me! I could be wrong ;w; ) anyway! yeah, some of my Links do have internalized fatphobia and are scared of becoming fat but they don't hate fat people! one of those Links is actually Warrior himself! believe it or not! He doesn’t like the way he looks and tries really hard in an unhealthy way to change it. but don't worry! he will learn in the future XD and don't worry anon! you are not rude at all!

Ok what does your twiddlefinger think about Martha/Mom especially after the recent short of recognizing her own trauma and actions? Since the sick tf is more protective for Jimmy, i imagine they don’t like Martha that much or maybe I’m wrong. Maybe sick tf sees Martha as a full guardian. I’m not sure.

okay, so like. bear with me on this one since i have personal bias (the max fictive in our brain..) but it's also what i interprate anyway

so first of all i don't THINK mdp will depict this anyway but i do think martha and max's relationship would need like. some serious time and effort to fix itself. i can imagine max holding SOME resentment for his mom to only now realize her mistakes, and while i think he'd try to keep the peace, you can't change what that kinda effect would have on someone, especially one trying to repress it in order to keep the family togethre. i absoteluyl want to talk about this family's whole relationship more cuz it's definitely complicated in a lot of ways.

like, she's never shown any regret in punishing or even hitting her son(s) before, but now that the situation hits a little too close to home? will she recognize all of the other times she's hurt them before, or will it just be the one time? that'd be the questions max would have until he feels comfortable enough to trust that his mom is growing as a person. if he even finds out about the situation anyway. cuz again, if she goes back to her old habits max would never know anyway. tbf he'd be glad jimmy isn't suffering as he had, but it'd still be a sore spot for him, ya know? i really think their relationship can be explore a LOT more, since max seems to be the main victim of her abuse at times..

oh but this is about twiddlefinger uhhmm. he definitely wouldn't see her as a protector in anyway, and if the situation aligns correctly i think he would try to protect jimmy FROM their own parents, probably a bit too much. martha has hit her kids before, imma remind ya..

evil max wouldn't have issues with "trying to keep peace" tho so i think he absolutely resents martha and, come time, would probably get back at her. at least with infected max, the only solace is he lost his memories of his parents altogether by the time he ran away, but evil max doesn't have to deal with that, but plenty of time to ruin people's lives

I used to not like AmeBela. Now I can see why people ship these two. In canon, America took Belarus in after the breakup of the Soviet Union. Maybe Belarus just got homesick lol. In my headcanon, Belarus secretly admires America for freedom and rights that she doesn't have? I heard IRL Belarus's president is known as "Europe's last dictator". I need to reread the culture and info books about Belarus. Do I ship Belarus and America as a romantic pair now? Maybe not, but I can see them as friends the least.

to ex-radfems:

hey! i didn't realize there was so many of y'all here on tumblr! I'll be honest, I'm not sure what to say about it, because, well, I thought we were much fewer and further between.

I think there are a few things worth saying, though.

Here's a resource for you. In addition, while I don't participate in discourse too often, I'm happy to provide perspective to good-faith questions, and to learn from you and what you've picked up along your journey.

I am proud of you for your growth. This is a really difficult thing - radical feminism targets vulnerable people who aren't equipped with the tools to understand its many issues. I hesitate to call any political system a cult, but as a cult survivor myself, there are parallels.

I know that the guilt is difficult. I was relatively harmless as a TERF since I rarely spoke up about it, but what little I did perpetuate, I regret. The things I've done in the name of beliefs that held me instead of me holding them still haunt me, radfem-related or not.

You are not alone. This is important.

Some people will not forgive you. Some people cannot forgive you. You may have trouble forgiving yourself. It's okay. It takes time, and what's most important is that you're here now, and you understand how to move forwards.

This is a safe space for former/deconverting radfems. I block easily, because I need to keep this a safe space for myself as well, but I want you to know that I'm going to do my best to make this space open to people who are willing to learn.

Honestly, at this rate, I might make a sideblog about being a former radfem - I'll add it to my pinned post if I do.

Anyways. I share some of this experience with you. I know it can be difficult, coming to terms with both your past and what this means for the future. I know it takes work. I know.

Most importantly, it's going to be okay.

(SPOILRERS ON RITPIDE EPISODE 100 if u havent seen it)

hey saw ur post on jayson ferin and thinking abt how young he was when he became a parent n if he actually loved may or not .. like he did fuck off (to go visit may) in episode 100 when jay told him may was dying so he cares for her somewhat. is it love? is it just looking out for the mother of his children ? dk

IT'S SO INTERESTING TO ME I NEED CONDI TO DROP MORE FERIN BACKSTORY MANN. personally i think at least at some point he loved may and probably still does but like. did something sour there? was he just always this way? is his idea of love just inherently flawed?

idk jayson ferin is a fascinating character to me (terrible father, fascinating person)... i kind of wonder if having kids at a young age could also be related to the ferin legacy thing? because if faye ferin is still active in the navy i'd assume she'd be pretty young for a grandmother, too. lot of thoughts about her relationship with jayson and drey.

and i think about jayson shaming jay for leaving her mother alone, back in the block arc. because he did the exact same thing, even whilst may was ill, and i wonder if he was just being manipulative or if he was projecting or if he was genuinely unaware. shaking condi and grizzly DROP THE INTERGENERATIONAL TRAUMA LORE. DROP IT.

What a day. Oof.

(editing Robin here, this got long, sticking it under a cut)

I couldn't get up to get a workout in... or make lunch for myself... or breakfast. I did pack my gym bag with the intention of going to the gym after work because it is both hot (summer) and the air quality is garbage (Canada blowing smoke on us). First hour of work was literally one of the most excruciatingly boring meetings I've had to sit through. We got a massive software update and it will taking used to since so many things are just like second nature to me. There are lots of bugs still that kinda make me question why they weren't sorted out in the literal years this has been in development. It's gonna be even more of a cluster fuck tomorrow I think because we have to do the end of the month work. Oh and the fuckin window washers were there so I think I lost a solid hour and a half right off the top this morning. Ugh.

Not having a lunch meant I had to go to the grocery store for lunch. Going to the grocery store meant going out in the gross haze, and then of course, bad choices were made. Bad choices that involve getting a big bag of chocolates and then eating like 90% of it, so my therapist will be hearing about that on... whatever fuckin day I have therapy again. Next Thursday? I dunno. I had to cancel my appointment this week because I had to take my car to the mechanic. Then karma came around and I got my massage appointment (that was supposed to be this afternoon) canceled on me. Whatever. It's not like it wasn't already rescheduled once.

So with a gut full of chocolate, almonds, and bad choices, I went home instead of the gym. Well not directly home, I stopped off at the library and got the book I placed on hold last week. I dunno how long I have it for though. Whoops. My mom says the shortest time that you can have a book checked out is typically 2 weeks, so I'm gonna try to have it done in two weeks.

With all the commotion this morning I completely forgot about Frank's reverb sale until about 10:30 and of course like everything was gone. Oh well. I did get the We Didn't Start the Fire (1989-2023) (Fall Out Boy's Version) (from the Vault) 7" vinyl though. And the Benadryl Subreddit 7" from LS Dunes as well the other day. And new Taking Back Sunday is coming on Friday. Small glimmers of hope on the horizon.

I just feel mentally and emotionally spent this week and we're only halfway through. Tumblr hasn't been the refuge it sometimes is, so I deleted the app from my phone with the intention of just clearing my head from it for a while. I get notifs of asks and I'm like "Oh great, what method of suicide will the anons be suggesting now? Will they be creative this time, or go with an old standby?" Fun times.

I lowkey (highkey) hate that I'm hungry right now. Like I know mentally that I have had a disgusting and inappropriate amount of food this afternoon, but sadly chocolates are not filling. The self loathing is high. The desire to do something desperate is high. The knowledge that my clothes won't fit well is weighing (ha) down on me like crazy and it just makes me panic and again, makes me want to overcorrect in the other direction. How did I end up on the mailing list for 75 Hard? Probably another time like this. But maybe it's what I need? But do they account for dangerously hazardous weather with their outdoor workout requirement? Like? I get the idea of getting out in the rain or cold, but like wildfire smoke? Eh.

So the last few days have not been fun. Could be worse (NOT A SUGGETSION UNIVERSE), but sure as hell could be better.

tw: trauma talk, mental illness, child abuse talk

sometimes I just think about all those times where an adult could have helped me

or confronted them of what they were doing to me and

there were so many chances but adults around me turned blind eye from it

he should have been arrested after all

or I don't know, call the CPS because there were so many chances where I could have been "saved" but God fucking knows what would have happened if CPS was invovled.

but this is what happens often when you live in a poor neighborhood full of people who are afraid of the police because they're illegal immigrants or they don't speak English or their culture tells them not to meddle with other people' s business.

i get it but it sometimes makes me so frustrated that people just let that happen to me..

could it have been worse because i may have been taken to foster care? I don't know. maybe. maybe I would have been taken to some other family members care. but what's the point of even ruminating about it when I'm 29 now

i just wished I had an adult I was able to trust when I was young

Has Tweek ever struck someone in anger?

Yes -- sorry, Craig... haha!

Before they were together, Tweek and Craig beat the shit out of each other severely enough to put each other in the hospital. Then, when they were in the hospital, Tweek got out of bed and instigated another fight with Craig, enraged over something the main boys claimed Craig said about him. This was not the last fight the two of them got into in elementary school, either.

When the two of them got together, they mellowed out a little bit. However, the resentment over their situation resulted in rising tensions between each other, and in middle school, things escalated to violence between them again.

Tweek was the first one to lash out, not fully lucid at the time, scratching Craig's face while in the middle of a breakdown. Craig was quick to forgive Tweek for this, saying he didn't realize what he was doing and, therefore, could not be blamed.

However, while it started that way, Tweek soon figured out that violence felt good. It was a language people would actually listen to, after he spent years trying less severe ways of making his voice heard. He was frustrated, and he wanted to tear things apart, and the only things in arm's reach were himself and Craig.

Craig feels awful about his eventual retaliation, and he will defend Tweek's violence, saying he didn't know better. He has an excuse, unlike Craig. But if you ask Tweek, he will be remarkably candid about how intentional his abuse toward Craig was, and he will laugh and say that Craig "got him back good."

They put each other in the hospital again at 15, which is what led to their breakup.

In elementary school, Tweek was one of the least violent kids in school, often avoiding confrontation entirely. It scared him, and when he did get into scraps, he was rarely ever the instigator, usually just defending himself against the other children.

As he ages, Tweek becomes more prone to lashing out violently, or at least threatening people when they provoke him. He is no longer terrified of confrontation and, in fact, becomes very strong-willed as an adult -- at what cost to everyone else, though? Ha!

His teen and early adult verses see him much more willing to start fights with the people who anger him, and he doesn't fight clean, either. In his later adult verse, he mellows out a little bit into a "do no harm but take no shit" kind of person. He learns to assert himself more without the use of violence, but he's still not against it in more extreme cases.

Content warning for domestic abuse

During his sophomore year in high school, Jaden entered a romantic relationship with a girl named Angela.

Things between them went well for a time, and he even confided into her about his pansexuality at some point. But it didn't take long for Angela to reveal some of her truer, nastier colors to Jaden.

She was one of those types of girlfriends who wanted her boyfriend to be attached to her hip at all times. So all their activities had to be done together, always; no matter what. When Jaden didn't want to comply, for whatever reasons he had, she'd hit him while half yelling, half whining to him about it. They'd argue, things would escalate, and it would end with him either relenting into her demands or them having a prolonged fight about it until he finally relented.

Eventually though, after reaching out to Penny and gaining the support of his sisters, Jaden called things off with Angela. Then, it was a mad dash to come out to his parents before the high school rumor mill could reach them because he knew Angela would out him as a means of revenge for breaking up with her. And she did just that, and then some.

On top of there being a rumor about his queerness, Angela twisted their story around and claimed that it was Jaden who was physically abusive towards her, not the other way around.

Jaden's social standing fell apart rather quickly after that, and only a few people who knew the truth/believed him when he said it was really her who was abusive stuck around him after that. Those few people would wind up being the friends Jaden carried into adulthood and bonded deeply with - in spite of or maybe even because of Angela.

It's been years since he's dealt with Angela and the fallout of her abuse towards him. Jaden considers himself moved on from it and healed nowadays, and this is a mostly true statement. He's less afraid to stand up for himself, should he ever find himself in such a position again. Part of the reason why things got so bad between them was because Jaden was genuinely afraid to hit a girl and she had power over him in knowing his closeted status. Now, he wants the world to know of his queerness, and if a girl throws the first punch then he'll throw the last one without a care about what anyone thinks of it.

But he has emotional walls set up too and isn't completely aware that they're there. Angela's torment has pushed Jaden into holding himself more guardedly while keeping others at distance. It's safer that way. People can't hurt you if they don't get in at all. He's also sensitive to any sort of perception that makes him out to be a bad and-or abusive boyfriend too because he doesn't want to be caught in the turmoil of those kinds of rumors again. He doesn't want to be that sort of person either. His love language is doting because he cares and because he wants to be the opposite of the worst thing he could be.

6. What is something that you didn’t think you will write but now you are writing it? - @hells-greatestdad

Ffffff it’s more like what I haven’t written yet and would not mind if I did. I love ships. I’m a pain in the ass these days to get me to actually establish a ship with because of how picky and character building/chemistry oriented. But one ship I wouldn’t mind to write is a Lucifer x Lucid ship. Sounds taboo/problematic right? Ngl I’m cringing over here as I type this and feeling shameful lol.

Lucid was made in Lucifer’s image, but he’s not Lucifer. He’s his whole own person and not related (unless my rp partner wants them to be or pursue a more familial route. Then yeah, no that ship ain’t happening). They’re beings made from light and dust, never met until 6,000 years later. Adam and Lilith are made of the same dust and Eve came directly from Adam’s rib. The beginning of everything is kinda whack if one lingers too hard on the topic. If Lucid is being called son/brother/twin, there is absolutely no way I’d propose that ship.
