Casual reminder that I will explode into fanart and serotonin once Scarlet Hollow updates with chapter 5 🤗💥

[heyitswink]

this is why whenever I see a post that I disagree with - even if I think the other person is being a dumbass - I try to reduce my pesonal opinion to the point I'm trying to make and not focus it on the person making the original statement in the end we're all people in front of screens

You're not immune to being the bully btw. You're not immune to being in the wrong

Good Intentions?

So my mom asked me an interesting question: "Don't you ever feel like an asshole when you think you're correcting people? Especially if the thing they believe makes them happy?"

In this conversation specifically, about science and health facts, my answer is "No."

I don't feel like I'm being an asshole when I tell you the thing you believe about a health fact is wrong. I feel like I'm helping you learn the correct way to keep yourself healthy. I know I might sound like an ass, and be perceived as an ass, but I know your intentions are good, you might just be understanding 'the thing' wrong and I want to help you actually be safe.

For context: My mom has a fear of having a heart attack or stroke, but she doesn't talk to doctors or health professionals about staying healthy or safe. Instead she found this "Influencer" who gives "health advice", but this person has also been banned from Australia because their 'advice' was so wrong, it threatened peoples' health. My mom thinks eating excessive amounts of Celtic Salt will provide her with minerals that will boost her health, and EVERY TIME we talk about her salt, I tell her that she's eating so much sodium, those minerals mean nothing.

I know that often, people feel like they're being insulted when someone corrects something they say, but that's not always the case. In the above situation, I correct mom's misinformation because I know the thing she is doing, is going to greatly increase the chances of her experience the thing she's trying to avoid. I'm not mean about it, just persistent. I don't tell her she's stupid or anything. I don't really tell her "you're wrong". I remind her of a health fact she used to know as true, but has since been convinced to forget it?

I did tell her, when she asked why I keep talking about it, that "you might be lucky and nothing will happen, in which case I'm just annoying and we cannot have a good conversation about salt with each other. But a majority of cases show, the excessive amount of salt people eat can lead to greater risk of stroke or heart attack. And if you are unlucky and have an event, don't be surprised if the doctor talks to you about your salt."

I've been corrected too, but I've always thought it of someone trying to teach me something. And sometimes what they say is wrong, but I appreciate their attempt to help me. They state their case, I state mine, then I move on to another topic that we don't disagree on, but sometimes something they say has me questioning, and then I get to do more research :D

There's another guy at the homeless shelter who is giving me advice on how to start my own business. I cannot talk health facts with him because he believes changing his body's PH balance will protect him from cancer and that the oncoming eclipse is caused by excessive amounts of chemicals the government is exposing us to. He speaks so often and with so much confidence and authority, that I still feel bad voicing any opposing opinions. But I still try, sometimes.

( other side note, as a presenting woman, anything I do is often brushed aside as me "being a bitch", so very often anything I say or do is dismissed or taken with skepticism. Occasionally, I do find someone who is interested in learning and we ask questions together and do research and have good fun :) )

What do you guys think? I genuinely want to know your stance on correcting people or being corrected.

Color Sans

I don't know anything about Color!sans, but i've been seeing him a lot. Anyone have links to his story or info? Maybe some stories that show his personality well?

All I know about him is he's a good emotional influence with Killer, often portrayed as killer's friend or someone who saves him from Nightmare. Annnnnddddd..... no thats it....

[winkuzz]

Just looked up my playtime because I was curious and I don't want to compare these two games cause I love them both sm for different reasons but stp just doesn't scratch my brain the same way sh does

Like I hold Slay the Princess in my hands and I adore and admire it like the beautiful piece of art it is. I put it on my wall to appreciate.

Scarlet Hollow I grab and shake and put it in a mason jar and study it like a bug and I prod at it until it tells me all its secrets.

small housekeeping thing again

I finally made some accounts for the sort of art that is uh --- too spicy to post here.

It's binkbonk on bluesky where you can properly tag things with warnings and binkbwonk on twitter (locked acc, gotta request to follow). Both accs are still empty as of now, but I wanted to have a space for the thirstier sorts of arts

Suggestive content art that I post on here will continue to be labeled with a warning first while keeping the actual content under the cut - like I did before. Just to ensure everyone's comfortable with stuff I put on yalls timelines

That's it, have a nice day yall

👋

[winkuzz]

Please join us on Bluesky, it's so much better over there!

In case any of you here also use X/Twitter.

I did a sticker challenge at connichi: buy as many baldur's gate 3 characters as stickers from as many artists as possible and I love the result

[winkuzz]

I am so normal about Reese Kelly y'all

[winkuzz]

Sometimes I have to remind myself that it's okay if art takes time and that quality can come before quantity

Then my adhd kicks in and goes like

"NO TIME!!! ONLY IDEAS!!!!"

And that's why I only ever post sketches

[winkuzz]

I AM SO NORMAL ABOUT REESE KELLY I PROMISE

yesterday i was insane about that fictional man. today i am insane about that fictional man. tomorrow? take a wild guess brother

[winkuzz]

A couple days ago I felt pretty unsocial and wasn't having a great day in general and so I was pretty quiet. But when I returned to my fanart thread on the blacktabbygames/scarlet hollow server I saw ppl saying nice things about Wren and honesty that made me smile so much
