every time a post/poll goes around about being aspec and fandom shipping enjoyment/engagement/whatever im like. NOW can we stop acting like being an aromantic person who enjoys shipping is some kind of Weird Outlier Situation? can we stop acting like this is an Unpopular Opinion or even Persecuted Outcast Take rather than idk, the default standard, just like everywhere else? idk romance repulsed aromantics Yes Including Fiction aren’t the default or even a significant majority and it really drives me nuts when people act like aros who enjoy shipping are somehow Not exactly that.

#gav gab #aro blogging #like gdspeed bud enjoy what you enjoy #glad you’re happy #but can we fucking knock it off with the ‘but am i VALID to be an aro who likes shipping?????’ stuff #like yeah dog you and fucking Everybody Else in fandom #a small handful of ‘im too aro for this’ from the handful of Yes Including Fiction Yes All Of It romance repulsed aros #are not persecuting you or taking away your aro card #anyways that goes along with my general opinion that #going around asking people Is It Valid To Be X Identity And Have Y Experience Or Opinion #is a fundamentally useless and unhelpful thing to do #and is unfair to yourself and to the person you're asking #bc you're placing your like #ability to Have An Identity in someone else's hands #which they did not ask for #and is not theirs to give or not give anyway #this one just super extra annoys me lmao #'am i valid if i'm an aro who still likes shipping?????' well if you weren't #most aros wouldn't be ValidTM #because that is not unusual at all #you know what IS unusual?#being the big mean aro in the corner who DOESN'T like shipping #no none of it yes including that one I Do Mean All

A Pragmatic and surprisingly comforting perspective about the Trump 2nd Presidency from the ACLU

***Apologies if this is how you found out the 2024 election results***

Blacked out part is my name.

I��m not going to let this make me give up. It’s disheartening, and today I will wallow, probably tomorrow too

AND

I will continue to do my part in my community to spread the activism and promote change for the world I want to live in. I want to change the world AND help with the dishes.

And I won’t let an orange pit stain be what stops me from trying to be better.

A link to donate to the ACLU if able and inclined. I know I am

#us politics #donald trump #election 2024 #aclu #a promise to myself #how is this comforting you May ask #bc we are not fighting alone or uninformed #we have good and strong groups in our corners defending what we believe in #it’s not over yet #we have to try and pushback #added Alt image descriptions since this is leaving containment #happy to see many engaging with this to either donate time or money or both #really warms the cold heart of mine #wow this broke containment #overall it’s been pretty nice seeing people engaging with it ready to roll up their sleeves and get to work #they did the travel ban right at the beginning of the previous presidency too #also every major civil battle in the last century #brown V board of education- the one that desegregated schools #loving V Virginia- legalized interracial marriage #roe V wade- legalized abortion #United States V Nixon- watergate scandal WHICH LIMITED US PRESIDENTAL POWER #Edwards v. Aguillard- helped allow schools to teach evolution #Planned Parenthood v. Casey- another abortion case #ACLU v. NSA- to stop the NSA spying on wikipedia users #Ingersoll v. Arlene's Flowers- fought to stop LGBTQ discrimination from businesses #Obergefell v. Hodges- case that legalized gay marriage #literally WAY MORE GUYS #so don’t fall into dispair! these are literally one of the good ones!

idk how many of you remember this but a few years ago tumblr ran a universally panned ad campaign for (us american) pride month that went "the gayest place on the internet".

well someone planning that campaign dropped in to ask the queer automatticians for advice on that and universally me and the other trans people involved were like "don't do it. i am so serious. don't do it. people on tumblr won't understand that it wasn't automattic who instituted the porn ban, or they will, but they'll recognize that automattic hasn't done anything, hands tied or not, to reverse it. nobody will like this. it will be a disaster." and they thanked us for our thoughts and went ahead with it anyway and then had to do retrospectives about how badly it went and were like "we just didn't know" and [gestures] yeah [edit: i think the person who rbed saying it was queerest place on the internet was right, my brain is fried, sorry! and that's... even worse lmao]

#tony muses #hello new followers. for clarity if you are expecting intense amounts of goss about tumblr specifically i am not your person #when automattic first acquired tumblr they asked queer staff who wanted to transfer over to something that was dear to a lot of us #and i specifically did not want to shit where i eat so to speak #which was the right choice. i just have other info about automattic more generally

Happy 1 year anniversary to Mr Sherlock Holmes! Here's a litttleee celebratory comic from me

#sherlock & co #sherlock and co #writing these tags on the 29th of september #which is when john and sherlock ACTUALLY met <3 #so there you go #uh once again shout out to candy for letting me talk through some of my processes #it helps immensely and i really wanted to be sure i was getting across what i wanted to with this one #speaking of which - usually i yap a lot in the tags of these bcus i love talking about art #for this one...im not sure i want to comment too much #because i'll be here forever and i think most things can speak for themself #but let me say this one thing #for the first five pages i was drawing john on paper and sherlock on the computer exclusively #and then bringing them together..#uh it really made me think of paul and harry. recording on opposite sides of the world. brought together by the power of editing #its not a particularly emotional scene but i hope ive infused it with. something.#anyway thats it from me #if u want to ask about any particular aspect i would love to yap about the process but i'll just leave it here for now or i'll never shut u #happy 1 year podpals #patsart #oh yeah i will say i did have to take quite a bit of liberty with the audio in order to do what i wanted. forgive me #or dont idc

FORGETTABLE-AU (Page 61-64)

* I-I don't think we were talking about the same thing...

[BEGINNING] [PREVIOUS] [CONTINUE]

#FINALLY FINISHED THIS WOHOO #Okay so #I have been keeping this small part of info secret for SOOOO long and it was so funny that JUST this week I got a ton of asks about #Wingdings' voice and I was SO tempted to talk about this little detail #BTW I DIDN'T FULLY MAKE THIS UP #i mean #Yeah I did #BUT IT IS BASED ON SOMETHING I NOTICED!!!!!!#When redacted talks in Wingdings the sound is clean #but when we listen to entry 17 (which is most likely a recording)#There's a VERY loud overlay of garbage noise #And so I was like #I could use this.........#like yeah a sound based on symbols?? we can't understand it! but our brains might do the work for us and maybe try to understand it?#but recording it goes very bad.....#I thought it was fun so I made it a hc for Gaster #and then I applied it here :D #lol #I think the pacing of this one is also a bit too fast but ehh #I hope it's clear #I am so proud of how I drew Alphys in these pages I feel like I am finally understanding her shape and how I want to stylize her #Sans is very good at reading people #He can tell when people are lying #that's why Wingdings didn't lie! he just conveniently forgot to tell him some details about what they found #okay yeah that's enough #TIME FOR THE TAGS #undertale #forgettable-au #forgettable-au-comic #sans

On autonomy, and what it means to be Obliged to Help.

Bonus:

#a homestuck walks into an antechamber and asks #hey is anybody going to make this dynamic wholly deterministic and thus dubiously consensual by its very nature #ANYWAY bigger ramble below. scroll down like usual #isat spoilers #isat #isat fanart #isat siffrin #isat loop #sifloop #THATS RIGHT WE'RE STILL SHIP TAGGING IT BABYYYY #in stars and time #in stars and time fanart #lucabyteart #RAMBLE START: anyway i think loop is wrong here. they have it backwards. as-- in my opinion--#the main reason they could be called back into existence postcanon is because *their* wish for help is still not complete #they still need help. siffrin still needs help. neither of them will ever stop needing help.#they will thus uphold the wish until the end of siffrin's natural lifespan.#that said. what does it mean that loop can be so wholly forced to abide by siffrin's wants?#(assuming the dagger cutscene posession is them being forced to uphold the 'help siffrin' wish via harsh universe logic)#[as opposed to something capricious and cruel the change god did. which feels out of character for the change god to me?]#much like how the island wish and duplicate objects are neutered by simply sliding off people's brains...#is loop subtly ushered toward their wish? obviously it's not a full override (see: the bossfight). but is there any interference?#and if so. so what? does it matter? if they don't notice? is it even real if they don't notice?#and even if they do notice. the universe leads we follow. how much do either of them value their free will in a belief system like that?#the whole game is dedicated to siffrin habitually NOT excersizing his free will. doing things the same Every Time.#Loop ESPECIALLY does this. predetermined predetermined predetermined even in the FACE OF CHANGE. REFUSING. ANY CHOICE.#Maybe they'd even be comforted by having a universe-ordained purpose even if it is subservient. even if its to Him.#(though. i can't see siffrin enjoying the idea that someone is subservient TO them... then all their suffering is his fault...)#loop got into this mess via WANTING too much. no more free will. can't be trusted with it. take it away from them.#but yeah. gets my greasy detective pony hands all over this. and everyone please do remember i like to make characters Outright Wrong A Lot

I hope you take this as the compliment it is intended to be, but you strike the same chord of irreverence-as-love, jokes-to-showcase-sencerity that I get from Chuck Tingle, and I adore both of you.
