#you DARE post this on tumblr but dont show me

[chilewithcarnage]

yeah so going off that maykitz post about sonya massey & it's showing me that white people have this gross almost fetishtic relationship to witnessing violence against brown and black bodies. like why are you encouraging people to watch what is essentially snuff. everytime a black person is murdered on camera by a cop or a group of Palestinian children get killed in another iof bombing y'all will share the uncensored horrific blood and viscera talking about some 'dont you dare look away'. like girl fuck you how do you think it feels for us to see our people get graphically tortured and murdered at the hands of white supremacist colonial forces? I saw the video of Sonya being shared all over twitter and I couldn't even get past the first few seconds of her holding the pot. I'm not even being funny when I say don't nobody wanna see that shit. y'all might see it as a 'oh people are trying to stick their heads in the sand and shield themselves from the truth!' like NO we're really not! we're not sitting up here making crybaby ass posts about how 'tumblr is supposed to be a fun place so if you use it as an escape from all of the bad things happening you're valid 🌈' we are all very much aware of what is going on in the world, and ask yourself why you have to see first hand explicit horrific footage of a black woman being shot in the FACE to have sympathy with us?!

house is autistic i will accept no criticism

i have so many thoughts about house and autism. this might be the most unhinged post on my tumblr yet but here we go so house had the illusion of normalcy forced on him from a young age. i dont think thats like, full canon, but house talks about how his father abused him on more than one occassion and talked about how he was never satisfied or happy with house no matter what. so i truly dont think its a far reach to say that he would not have tolerated a "weird child." the thing that i think, though, is that all of his actions are a response to the fact that he's not particularly great at masking. he's afraid if he lets people close to him he won't be able to hide the fact that he's "weird" (aka bad). he intentionally pushes people away with his weird creepy comments and being an asshole and that's both him masking (if he's aggressively mean all the time no one will bother to look further) and a way of coping with the fact that he cant mask. the more he pushes people away the less likely it is that they'll see that he cares about things and that he's not "normal" like he's always been told. i also think that as the show went on, he got less and less concerned about masking. he constantly stims, he hyperfocuses and burns out, he panics about change, he treats his fellows a lot more like family. once he got to a point in his life where his "weirdness" is not something he can be ruined for (he's tenured and he has people who will fight for him) he found himself a lot more able to be aggressively autistic, even if he struggles with it due to trauma.

a huge Autism Moment in the show for me is when foreman quits and house fires chase. house has been afraid his whole life of showing who he actually is, as mentioned. his fellows, though, are his People, they knew all of his shit and they never ran awayy from it. they didnt question who he was and what he knew, only his methods, and they were willing to fight back against him (something he's shown he loves). but then foreman quits because he "doesnt want to be like house" and this is house's worst nightmare. this is exactly why he had normalcy beaten into him, because being weird only makes it that people will run away once they know you. he dared to let people see a bit of who he actually is and how he thinks and acts and foreman essentially said "i cant stand to be like you." on top of that fear, his team became Different. he doesnt know if chase or cameron thought the same things as foreman, if they were also judging him or hating him for being autistic. it sent him into fucking panic mode because how is he supposed to trust them when he doesnt know if they agree with foreman!!!!! and even if he could, the team is Different and its for a reason he cant control and he cant just go back to normal. his method of interviewing his new fellows also shows this - how is he supposed to be able to tell if someone will be okay with who he is and if they'll work well together based off a short intervew where he's almost certainly masking the whole time???? anyway. to end this absolutely unhinged post ive put together an inconclusive list of autistic traits and actions from house, and i want to say that so much of this is him being written off as an antisocial eccentric genius and, while he is an ass that cant be debated, it clearly runs deeper than that!!!!

he doesnt understand how ppl feel (he repeatedly talks about how small talk is like a guessing game for him and he doesnt know what to say)

he doesnt like to be touched (for a lot of the show people just do Not touch him, wilson excluded)

he stims constantly and he needs Sensations

he's blunt, rude, somewhat monotone, etc

he has a hard time making friends

he has a hard time saying what he feels (he'd rather joke or be mean than analyse his emotions)

he has a routine that he Sticks To (even thgh its not exactly the same because of patients etc, he goes to work late, he talks to the same people, he sits in his same office. he's shown coming to work sick at one point and he doesnt rly go on vacation. plus when cuddy took his bloodstained carpet it was such a fundamental change to his life that he couldnt deal)

he notices Everything (yes ik this is a sherlock holmes thing but consider sherlock holmes - also autistic)

he has a method and train of thought that works for him and he is unwilling to break from it (he's shown at least once stopping the fellows from writing on his whiteboard, and after he loses the og three he continues trying to hold ddx's because its how he Thinks)

Ray's Birthday !

To mark Ray's birthday, I'm excited to share a batch of drawings and little situation I've created just for the occasion ! I hope you'll enjoy them. As I get back into digital drawing, I'm still working on perfecting proportions, but I'm giving it my best shot. Keep an eye out for the big reveal

TW : their is SFW and NSFW drawing, both post will be cut out in two, the SFW which will be posted here and the NSFW one who will not be published on Tumblr for community rules purposes but if you are willing to see it i will gladly take recommandations of where i can post it . Be aware that Binary Star VN is an adult onely game. I am responsible for what I create but not for what you watch so if you'r not ready to see such things please skip this post

Thanks again for this beautiful game @concreteparasite

and Thanks to @shoyastars for their implication in the BSH community, you actually motivated me to do thoses post ;)

Thanks again for all of your likes on the previous post your support means a lot!

PS: The name of my OC is Roxanne. If you'd like more information or want to see more posts like this, don't hesitate to leave a comment ;)

Roxanne : age: 22 height : 1m75/5.8

Ray saving Roxanne from Double : ( SFW version so no potential Triggers you can see the other versions on the second post )

" As Ray held Roxanne in his arms, her delicate form nestled against his chest, a storm raged within him. The scent of her fear mingled with the metallic tang of blood as a reminder of the violence he had unleashed to rescue her from the clutches of Double. His jaw clenched with a suppressed rage as he surveyed the aftermath of his wrath. The lifeless bodies of Double's sidekicks strewn across the ground like discarded puppets. He knew he had acted out of necessity, but the weight of his actions pressed heavily upon him, a burden he bore in silence as always. Yet amidst the chaos and destruction, one thought consumed his mind : Roxanne's safety. She was his to protect, his to cherish, his to love. No one, not even a wretched fiend like Double, would dare lay a finger on her ever again. He could not allow anyone to threaten what was his, to encroach upon his territory. His grip tightened ever so slightly around Roxanne, a silent vow to shield her from harm at any cost. But beneath the facade of stoic resolve, a flicker of exhaustion danced in his eyes. The weight of his responsibilities bore down upon him, the never-ending battle against vilains and aliens taking its toll on his weary soul. Yet, in the midst of his fatigue, a spark of determination burned bright within him. For he was not just a mere man, but the most powerful superhero in the universe. He would stop at nothing to ensure Roxanne's safety, to protect her from the darkness that lurked in the shadows. With a silent nod to his inner demons, Ray gathered Roxanne into his arms and vanished into the night. For she was not just his love, but his everything. And he would do whatever it took to keep her safe, even if it meant sacrificing his own soul in the process."

She said yes ! In this timeline, she is now 25, and he proposed to her 2 days ago. She is overjoyed about it.

In the wake of Ray's proposal just two days prior, Roxanne found herself enveloped in a euphoric haze of happiness and excitement using every excuses to show her engagement ring . The weight of the ring on her finger served as a constant reminder of their shared future, a future filled with endless possibilities and boundless love. Every glance at the sparkling gold sent a flutter of joy through her heart, a tangible symbol of their commitment to each other. She couldn't help but steal glances at her hand throughout the day, marveling at the way the light danced off the delicate band. As she went about her daily routine, her thoughts invariably drifted back to Ray and the tender moment when he had asked her to be his forever. The memory filled her with warmth and affection a sense of belonging that she had never known before. With each passing moment, she found herself falling deeper in love with Ray, grateful for the unwavering support and devotion he had shown her even if the begining of their relation was tumultuous. She knew that their love was a rare and precious gift, one that she would cherish for eternity. And as she gazed into the future with him by her side, she couldn't help but feel a sense of profound gratitude for the man who had captured her heart so completely. For in his arms, she had found her home, her refuge, her everything. And she knew that together, they could conquer any obstacle that lay in their path, guided by the unbreakable bond of their love.

" loved, and being loved. Being loved, and loved. "

Pun making aside do you have any advice on how to . Roleplay blog?? I have like my ocs who i would love to make blogs about but my technologially compromised arse does NOT dare. Is there roleplay blog etiquette???

Sorry if this is a bad place to ask its just your blog seems really put together and like????.?? Yeah

Sorry once again /gen

-🌺

★°•.: I'll answer this ooc :)

So there isn't exactly roleplay blog etiquette? I would say? At least in my opinion. I have no idea if you're wanting me to show you to make a rp blog but I'll show you ss on how to get there just in case.

So you'll go to the account drop thing, and press that + new.

I have no idea what everyone else's tumblr looks like, but this is how mine is (I have an android, and I sometimes use my computer.) You'll put your title name as like ur oc's name and then the blog name will be like your user, if that makes sense? You don't need to make a password either.

Again no idea if this is exactly what you were asking of me, but that's how you do that.

If you're scared of reaching out, or trying to interact with people, don't be! The dc rp fandom is really sweet and will love to interact. Just remember to be respectful and such. I know I was a little scared to make a damian wayne rp blog, but here I am, halfway to 200 followers already. :')

Dont be scared to ask questions either!

When you make an rp blog, try and make a intro post about your oc so that they get introduced and people will have information about them!!

I came back AND WITH A OLD HYPER FIXATION

✨ HOMESTUCK ✨

(let me tell you a little ity bity about Homestuck <3)Homestuck goes to the story of John Egbert and his friends (Rose Lalonde, Dave strider and jade Harley) who accidentally caused the end of the world by Dowlanding the beta of a game (FUCK I DONT REMEMBER THE NAME) and thats all i been reading a little bit because i got spoiled already about some creepy things.I remember when I was little and discovering Homestuck by my crush on Dave (bbg I still love you :>). And joined again because nostalgia

And I got another hyper fixation with

HIVESWAP FRIENDSHIPSIM AND PESTREQUEST

Tell me tell you about hiveswap and pesterquest :

In both games we are playing a someone called MSPA Reader (Reader It already existed for a long time, they are not any new characters, they already exist as a representation of the Homestuck readers if I'm not wrong)

Hiveswap: Our little buddy crashes on alternia and has the desire of making friends with every troll in this planet, you gotta be careful with every decision you make to not end death and making a successful friendship (Reader dies so many GOD DAMMIT TIMES-)

Pesterquest : it's like the same thing but we are not in alternia (we are controlling the same Reader) NOW WE ARE IN EARTH C where our beloved protagonists of Homestuck are there,so now we are making friends with the Homestuck cast (spoiler : in Dirk's route THE FUCKIN ULT DIRK APPEARS TRYING TO KIDNAP OUR BABY AND THE MF CALL US SHIT, HOW HE DARED)

I hate Tumblr's posting limit, I wanted to show you a meme I made with Alight motion with the audio of : KEEP MY WIFE NAME OUT OF YOUR FUCKING MOUTH

[cannibalismyuri]

way to take things out of context <33 lemme show u some things i said in the actual post that aren't taken out of the connotations i meant to imply them with?

"they also are popular bc they're seen as Better than other creators and put on a pedestal. which is both uncomfortable for them and Highly discouraging for others." this was the whole sentence. way to take things out of context huh.

"many people just disregard other rlly talented creators in favor of the already popular ones (who are popular for a reason. their art / fics / wtv Are really good and i read their stuff too! not trying to put them down here, just trying to lift other people up)" so where in this sentence do u see me saying that they aren't good writers?

"also bragging rights? babe nobody's bragging abt how they get more interaction. that's rude asf and entirely out of the question. and those popular writers ur talking abt who Could brag if they wanted to DON'T. bc they aren't despicable human beings who love to put others down." so did i or did i not clarify that i think the people byler tumblr puts on a pedestal handle it gracefully.

also the way u phrased this is Exactly what's wrong with this fandom. have u ever read anything that wasn't be the 10 writers u idolized? i've found some AMAZING, FREAKISHLY TALENTED, SWEET AND ALL-ROUND LOVELY writers in fandom whom i never would've found if i didn't Specifically try to broaden my horizons. the way you phrased this implies that there is simply nobody who compares to the writers with most engagement and like... how would u know? isn't this exactly the kind of behavior i was saying was Not It? ur putting them on a pedestal and refusing to acknowledge other people, no matter how talented they may or may not be. i'm not saying everybody is an amazing writer right off the bat and that these writers aren't amazing; i'm saying that others may be just as good. i know Several amazing writers eho dont get half the recognition as mediocre writers in other fandoms (NOT! TALKING! ABT! BYLER! HERE!) based on luck and when exactly they post. u guys will never branch out and Try to support these other fic writers who are helping keep this fandom alive and contributing Beautiful fics and then say that the tag is dying just bc UR personal favorite creators aren't creating as much. this doesn't in any way diminish the obvious prowess and skill of the Big writers, bc they're amazing writers and people, but u suggesting that nobody else even comes close? this is NOT nyt bestsellers this is FANDOM. its common courtesy to atleast respect people who write these fics for free and if u can't provide basic respect by trashing others' writing that u haven't even read bc its not one of the Big writer's writing... ur part of the problem.

and im going to say it for the last Fucking time. dont bring my fics or engagement into this. im speaking for so many other people and im trying to demand support for Everyone. this was never just abt me. i said this previously too, but i made a whole ass EVENT to shine light on less popular writers. bylerficrecweek was made for a reason. if it was just abt me and my engagement i never would've wholeheartedly put my whole heart into that project. and don't u Fucking dare insult my writing. "maybe you're not as good at it as you think"? im fucking tired of u coming on my blog, claiming im saying a bunch of BULLSHIT and recontextualizing everything i say and insulting my writing on top of that. you won't see this bc ive blocked u now but. im genuinely so fucking tired. im turning off anon. clearly who ever is sending these has a problem with me personally; so say it with your whole pussy to my face now. ok thx and im Really Fucking Tired please read the post for what its meant to be before mindlessly accusing me of shit.

[theoldlesbianwithcats]

you are so real for that response to nansheofearth's comment. lesbians are stuck licking crumbs off the boots of bihet feminist women or queer/trans identified people.

ive been to polilez/radfem events too, and hearing them talk is as alienating as being a homosexual women in queer spaces. sorry i dont want to listen to women talk about how boring their husbands became, or the 4 kids they had with a man before they "became lesbians". it is so alienating as a lesbian, you feel like you truly are a freak of nature, when even other "lesbians" can talk so casually about sleeping with men, so what's wrong with you that your whole being seizes with disgust and wrongness at the thought. or maybe there really is no one like you in the world.

it sucks that even other lesbians make allowances for radical feminist homophobia. our self esteem is so grounded into the dust that we think we need to put up with this homophobia for the "greater good".

your blog has become the go-to for lesbians haha, i check it regularly even if i don't otherwise check tumblr, so i'm throwing in my few cents into the discussion.

Hi anon!

(Anon is referring to that post.)

Thank youuuu, your last paragraph made me so happy 🥹 I'm glad my blog can be a positive lesbian space! Now I'm thinking I should post more beautiful women and gifs from lesbian movies hehe

I totally understand what you mean, that's pretty much how I felt when I went to that lesbian festival (tbh I knew something was wrong when the woman who handed me a flyer at the entrance had super long glittery stiletto nails, I almost left then and there 🤣)

To summarize the first edition of that lesbian festival last year:

First there was a panel on lesbian representation in the media that was derailed to trans males within ten minutes (and even complained about trans criminals being misgendered!), the second panel about intersectionality of lesbians of color had zero lesbian in it, only bi women and trans males

Then there was a lesbian comedy show with two fakebians talking about their ex-boyfriends and making jokes about lesbians' supposed obsession with astrology + a non-binary bi woman who claimed that her gender identity made all her relationships gay (she called herself a dyke and a faggot)

There was a sex-ed booth held by an influencer who had DYKE (yes, in all caps) in her Twitter bio while talking about her het hookups (and throwing a real tantrum when people told her it didn't make sense), she also made sex ed videos on our national tv channel's website where she said that lesbians have sex with men and that men can be lesbians. She has since removed dyke from her bio.

A lesbian bookstore had a booth too, the original owners retired and the new ones are polilez queers who keep promoting books about lesbianism being a choice... Half of the books at that booth were about trans people.

Needless to say, I wouldn't even inflict that on a lesbian I dislike as a prank!

What you said about "lesbians" talking casually about having had sex with men reminds me of a French podcast I listened to years ago that was about bisexual and "lesbian" women who were with men before realizing they were attracted to women. The first conclusion I had was that I couldn't relate at all and felt very uneasy about it. I didn't even dare write my second conclusion back then but it was basically this:

I couldn't differentiate their stories at all. And deep down, they must know this because fakebians use their experiences with men as a way of relating with bi and het women while being mostly hostile to gold stars and finding us unrelatable!

Anyway, this is really long already haha Question for the gold stars: what would be your dream lesbian event? 💃 (apart from being only for actual lesbians, of course!)

omfd s2ep8 spoilers & rant

originally posted to my twitter acc

i am genuinely so confused by the amount of pure vitriol some of you have towards izzy and izzy fans?? i get not particularly liking a character or agreeing with the way other people see them, but some of y'all are being absolutely disgusting towards others. what happened to cringe culture being dead, huh? insinuating people should be embarassed or ashamed to have a reaction to characters they like - having big emotions about media you love is part of being in a fandom! you're no better or less weird! oooh look at you being unwilling to forgive or accept character growth! wow! so morally superior and cool! just because you dont personally agree that a redemption arc was deserved or done well doesnt make it a fact btw.

ive been watching this season with casual viewers who are not a part of online fandom at all, and they have all very much enjoyed izzy's arc and him as a character, they are able to see the narrative importance of it, as are the writers and the crew. again, you dont have to agree. but dont act superior.

at the end of the day, this is a silly pirate show made mostly for 'haha's, and ALL of these characters have done HORRIBLE things, they're pirates ffs, that's kinda the whole point here guys! and those things are ridiculously easily forgiven (by our standards) again, because they are pirates and this is not a serious show.

izzy fans are sad, some are very very sad, maybe even a 'weird' amount! so? do you really need to dunk on them for lolz? make it out like they're insane for even liking a character that the show itself actively likes and supports and clearly wants the audience to like (in s2 anyway, and if you deny this then sorry but you're being willfully wrong)? idk why any of you are remotely surprised people like this character? starting to think some of you just wanna be edgy and seem sarcastic and cool and superior for your 'witty' twitter commentary tbh.

and of course sending any kinda negativity towards writers/cast/crew is disgusting and pathetic, but im seeing that from izzy lovers and haters alike on my feed, so dont you dare try and make it seem like a pro-izzy only issue here. and y'know what? it's also disgusting and pathetic to belittle and mock other members of the fandom, and im only seeing one side engaging in that behavior, please do humble yourselves and remember the times in your life when you have had a strong emotional reaction to things happening to your fav characters and ships. dont forget that you are also a loser with a fandom twitter/tumblr account.

and for the record, i thought the finale was genuinely good, as was all of season 2 in my opinion. all this immature negativity and faux superiority is making this fandom toxic. izzy is a popular character with viewers (casual & otherwise) and the creative team, who had a decent redemption arc. that is a fact, whether you like it or not. people should not have to feel hesitation about posting anything remotely positive about izzy out of fear of judgement or ridicule. save your cutting twitter remarks for actually problematic people.

im not even particularly attached to this damn character but the way y'all have been behaving has annoyed tf outta me.

STS tumblr takeover August challenge

-- ୨୧ --୨୧ -- ୨୧ -- ୨୧ -- ୨୧ -- ୨୧ -- ୨୧ -- ୨୧ --

୨୧ Theme: Power of Love || Hosted by the lovelies: @thelaundrybitch , @leosgirl82 and @post-apocalyptic-daydream 💖💗💕

୨୧ Prompt: "I can't do it anymore. I can't keep pretending I'm not in love with you"

୨୧ Characters/Fandom: TMNT; My bayverse Dark Turtle clones AU if you wanna check them out 💋💖

Decided to do this HC style

-- ୨୧ --୨୧ -- ୨୧ -- ୨୧ -- ୨୧ -- ୨୧ -- ୨୧ -- ୨୧ --

You dont know when you started to have a crush on (Lee/Red/Don/Mike)

All you knew is that you do

Anyone else would see them as mutants, but you saw them as misunderstood, wayward mutant turtle clones of the TMNT

And that evolved into something different between you and (L/R/D/M)

Anytime he would look your way you would look away, feeling a blush heat on your cheeks

You even started noticing that he acted different around you, too

He showed in his way that he liked you and thought of you as someone close to him

Sometimes even something he would say to you would make you feel like on ☁️💖 Cloud 9

You tried for months to make it seem like you wanted to be and stay friends with him, when he noticed your 'strange behavior'

Finally, unable to keep your feelings at bay, for about 2 weeks you didn't visit

Even sent short texts every now and then

He was worried about you, though he'd never admit it out loud to anyone

He would go to check on you, but when you texted saying that you were fine he didn't...

At least for about a week

He caught you late one night walking home

"Are you sure you're doing alright?"

You sighed deeply

You couldn't take it anymore

You had to let him know

"I..."

He waited for what you had to say

"I can't do it anymore. I can't keep pretending I'm not in love with you"

He looked at you with a wide eyed look of suprise

"There I said it. I'm in love with you, (Lee/Red/Don/Mike)"

It was silent

You didn't dare to look at him

You felt tears sting your eyes

"Even if you don't feel the same way, I just wanted to let you know... and that we'll still be friends..."

You didn't want to keep secrets from him..

You hoped this confession didn't ruin your friendship

What he said made you look up at him

"...Is that... what this funny feeling in my chest is?"

He placed a giant three fingered hand to his chest where his heart beat

You had told him about love when he asked what he felt when you two were together doing something or hanging out

You smiled

"Yes... that's love."

୨୧ TAG LIST:

He scooped you up in his arms and ran off with you

You couldn't help but let out a soft squeak when he held you bridal style

"Where we going?"

He just smirked down at you and continued on his way to take you somewhere special

His smirk made your heart race

You guessed... it didn't matter where you went, as long as he was with you, and protected you, you were fine anywhere with him.

The RWBY FNDM is not positive, it is anti-negative

Reading through various comments under my past threads, asks on tumblr, private messages etc. I have often seen parts of the RWBY FNDM complain about criticism. I think we all have. It is after all, a pretty common past-time. Quite recently i even made a meme on the phenomena of the RWBY FNDM never forgetting ANYONE who has ever criticized RWBY, Hbomber guy made a single video and lives rent free in so many heads for now at least 2 years that he could start collecting rent. While the Moistcritical(Charlie) situation is more recent, some people have not moved away from it either.

And it lead me to think.

You see, fans of the show often tell critics to just not watch the show, make spaces hostile to critics or outright ban them. They cause critics to start gathering more numerously in their own spaces on the internet, spaces in which people that do not want to see criticism, would not.

And yet...

And yet these same fans still do not find that enough. Because despite critics having their own spaces, despite there being tools in various websites to mute or not get recommended content one does not wish to see, they still seek out criticism, to complain about it.

On places like Reddit or Tumblr, a block on something you dont like is one click away. Its that easy. And yet... They do not use this option. Instead deciding to attack critics or criticism. Which while annoying would be at least somewhat more consistent with their ideology if they did not say that critics should not watch shows "They dont like".

What is funny is that many of these people often have their own FNDM projects. Books, videos etc. And yet... They dont work on those projects. Instead choosing to attack critics. As far as i am aware, most of the creators in the FNDM are either associated with critics or people critical of the show, or people who simply do not care about the FNDM at all besides just posting their things.

Just think about it. Keiths and the EverAfter artists works were attacked from the very start. Not because they were bad works, but because Keith worked with people like SYTOkun. Instead of celebrating fandom creativity, some RWBY FNDM parts instead wanted to destroy the entire group because *gasp* there were people critical of the show in it.

FixingRWBY is another great example. I think that the project has its problems. But oh man do people attack it out of hand just because it *DARES* to be a RWBY rewrite.

So, this thread is simply just a short reminder to everyone that the RWBY FNDM. It isnt focused on positivity. If anyone tells you that, you can be assured they are lying. Because to avoid "critics" is an easy choice to make, and yet... These people dont take it. They say that they dont mind criticism, they just dont want to see it. But in reality... They dont want it to exist.

SHANG TSUNG'S ISLAND

The island: absolutely breathtaking views. Tropical paradise. Various old structures and architecture of many many various eras and dynasties of China. Sometimes you can feel the island like it's alive....how ominous. Shang tsung says the island is in a realm of its own. A pocket dimension,not quite affected the same way as the realms it connects to. It sorta of is timeless,much like the man who rules it...still wonder what he means by this.

But overall it has lovely shores and beaches. Lavish courtyards and gardens. It has an upper courtyard,and lower. The Lower courtyard is mostly for guests,kombatants when there is a tournament,servents and guards. The upper courtyard is for me and shang tsung. He doesn't let anyone wander around in it unless he invites you. Which he does rarely.

The interior: the interior is traditional but has modern facilities. (Look shang is old but come on man!)

Tho he does have a traditional kitchen and a modern. But the modern one is his personal one near his living quarters. The rest of the inner palace is still got an old school vibe.

The inner palace/private living quarters:The bed chambers is lavish. Large. Silks,velvets,gold,red. *sigh* . Beautiful.

Shang's private kitchen,bathroom,hot spring,etc is all connected.

Armor/clothing:has beautiful armor and a ceremonial sword in his bed chambers too.

Some armor is for kombat. Some is ceremonial. Either way it's always beautiful to look at.

I too have lovely outfits. Aren't they great?

My magic apprentice outfit. Sorceress in training if you will. (Not exactly how i had it,but it was closest to i could find)

Also our accessories too

Shang and i (lady tsung) have snake rings. A pendent that helps my magic training. Master tsung has a snake flask(with what alcohol or its contents, i dare not ask him) and a dragon pipe for Tobacco(or other substances im sure).

Throne room:Shang tsung's throne room is also breathtaking. A Large room,holden dragons,the tournament master private dining room, a small courtyard next to it. Isn't it lovely?

His chair and also the outside gates to the inner palace.

Well that's all i have to show you for now! I hope you enjoy your stay. You probably should get going before he gets back. Shang tsung,my beloved tends to get a bit peeved when i have guests up here.

❤🐉❤🐉❤🐉❤🐉❤🐉❤🐉❤🐉❤🐉❤

I hope you enjoyed this fun post. Also if you want you can use some of the pics for aesthetic boards if you want! Just try to credit me or at least send me a link to your work. I would love to see your creations!

Nothing is set in stone. And things may change but i have fun world building fr. So i hope this helps you too get ideas!

Plz i really love discussion on this stuff :'3 i have little people to talk to bout decor and design. And all this that goes into story and art.

Sincerely- @mrstsung (lady tsung,arttrampbelle)

*note i dont do mk12 shang. I will do any other shang tsung. Thank you*

People need to let people enjoy things

I see so many people on social media (eg twitter,tumblr etc) who are so obsessed with what media people can and cannot like and its honestly gotten to the point where im scared to talk about anything in fear that what i like is problematic or whatever

Look im fine with people being critical of the media they consume i do it all the time even regarding shows i love like south park,danganronpa etc but its gotten to the point were saying anything positive about media that has problematic elements or continuing to watch said shows gets u accused of all the nasty names under the son and i just don’t think that’s fair honestly  it comes off like people are dictating what media is and isn't acceptable to watch or what media we can and cannot talk about and its just making it harder and harder to talk about things i love in fear ill be called a pedophile or a racist just for liking it

Like whatever happened to “u can enjoy something and be critical of it” or “u can still enjoy something while not directly supporting the creator” its like those concepts have been forgotten about and now people are like “if you like this piece of media in anyway shape or form your a bad person period” i just dont find that very fair personally like why should i have to stop enjoying something i like just because aspects of it are problematic? by that logic we cant enjoy anything because most media has atleast a few things that are problematic or could be interperated as such  Like i love the anime made in abyss its one of my favorite pieces of animation of all time for its stunning world,atmosphere and amazing soundtrack but because it has some problematic shit in it and tackles darker subject matter i get labeled as a bad person just for daring to say anything good about it  like im just not allowed to talk about what the series does right and only focus on the negative stuff  like again being critical of media is fine infact i encourage it as i think it helps start a dialogue where we can discuss this stuff but to act like we have to ignore everything a series does well and stop enjoying that piece of media full stop is dumb imo

At the end of the day let people enjoy things aslong as there not hurting anyone in anyway shape or form why do you care about what media people enjoy? people are allowed to enjoy things that make them happy and discuss things that make them happy and liking that piece of media does not mean they like every single thing about that piece of media and if the issue is about supporting a bad creator then there are still ways to enjoy that media without directly giving them money like piracy,second hand markets etc etc  this post isnt about ignoring problematic elements in fiction but more that acting like we have to ignore anything good about that fiction because of that stuff or to stop watching or talking about it all together is unfair and people shouldn't have to stop enjoying things that make them happy 

what are your thoughts on this? do you agree with me or not please feel free to give your own thoughts on this subject in the comments also sorry if this feels messily written this is my first time making a tumblr post like this so im very rusty lmao

I hate it how websites on mobile just dont ever work

Especially with social media. I hate downloading apps, I lose focus and open them more easily, but on a longer train ride or something I sometimes want to open tumblr or reddit or whatever. And the norm is that they like?? refuse to fucking work???

It took me 4 tries to type this post out and im hoping I wont need to restart it, because on mobile it sometimes just starts writing backwards for some incomprehensible reason and doesnt let you write again unless you reload the page.

No website shows pictures correctly, its impossible to close a pop up window (although I think that might be intentional) and I dare you to play a video anywhere

Tried these with 2 different phones and with chrome and firefox as well.

Like what if my phone doesnt have the space for it? A reasonably old phone has like 16GB of storage and half of that is OS already

please bring back regular websites

[peysk]

i've always had a hard time taking the Above It crowd that populates certain influential niches of this website that seriously. The crowd of users who will go out of their way to let you know that there are some things that are popular and well liked by many that they are simply Above of, that they will simply refuse to meet on its terms. Megapope was big on letting users know that while thousands of people with varied backgrounds and beliefs may like furries he absolutely did Not care for them, as to him it was an expression of a genuine desire to commit bestiality. The man was very intelligent and basically no tumblr user other than him has written posts that have so long lingered in my brain and shaped my decisions across time, however i did always find that the way in which he would not simply state his opinions in a textpost, but actively reblog a post from a corner of tumblr that very obviously was not Meant for him and add some remark to put the people daring to engage with something aesthetically childish in their place to be quite annoying. Some gaggle of users are saying or doing something weird regarding some form of media they're not Supposed to care about. you come along, place yourself as an object in direct contrast with them. people see your version of the post. the fact that they relate more to you now becomes an attractive proposition: if you're more like me, that means you're in some measure better than "them". I dont like it. Hundreds of people giving themselves a standing ovation over the fact that they DONT find the imagery of a werewolf man filling them with cum appealing. something you would never ever congratulate yourself for if Above it guy didn't specifically grab it and show how put together him and people like him look in comparison.

hello!!! warning you now that this is going to be the longest thing ever because i’m allergic to being concise but it’s finally time for me to actually send you an ask to gush and discuss your incredible writing. i’ve been interacting with your work on ao3 and tumblr for over a year now and i just lurk and heart everything because i refuse to use tumblr how it’s intended to be used🫣 but it’s time to show my face (even though this is anonymous oops) and say the quality of your writing is genuinely unparalleled to anything else i’ve ever read online and dare i say it comes close to/ overtakes some of the published books i’ve read and loved. you are such a talent it drives me crazy. you’ve quite literally spoiled fanfiction for me because i’ll read something for a different fandom and think “ugh it’s good but it’s not betweenthings2😔😔😔”

i saw you answer an ask a while ago asking what your goal for writing is and you said something along the lines of wanting to move people with your work. when i saw that it made me smile because you’ve achieved it ten times over and im worried you don’t realise it!!! so im going to tell you about my experience reading Roadkill for the first time (side note but in my opinion this is your best and therefore most underrated piece and i would love to talk about it further)

i remember being at a cafe that day by myself having a little drink and sweet treat and getting the email notification that you’d posted something to ao3 and nearly dying from anticipation for the rest of the day because i knew i wouldn’t do the fic justice to just quickly read it in a noisy cafe. it would be a waste of art. so in the evening i lied to my parents that i had plans with friends and wouldn’t be home for dinner and instead walked to the park near my house with a block of chocolate and sat on a park bench in the slightly-chilly-but-still-nice-out australian dusk. trust me i remember it so vividly because it’s like a core memory for me now. i’d been going through a really tough time mentally and felt super disconnected from everything and everyone. when i tell you i read all 35k words in one sitting and wept like a baby. i’m a very emotional girl dont get me wrong but the release that your writing made me feel was something so special that i’d never felt before. the whole piece is so devastating and confronting and just misery but it made me feel so seen and whole and human. if i could describe your writing in one word i think it would be human. everything is always raw and vulnerable and messy but so tender it just makes me insane. i sat in that park and cried for such a long time and even though the whole experience was so heavy and i could feel the grief you manufactured in my gut i left that park feeling lighter and grounded. i think that’s how anyone would feel after witnessing such greatness. (side note but i’ve actually banned myself from re-reading roadkill for the minute because it makes me lose my mind a bit too much but that’s just a further testament to you. can’t wait to get back to my scripture later on)

your other fics on ao3 and perfect as well and i read Second Letter From St Julian, All This Barley Getting By, I Forget A Lot Of Things But I’ll Never Forget You and Me And You vs Them religiously. they are my comfort fics through and through🩷 maybe the hyper fixation has gone too deep for me but when i’m trying to fall asleep i use the plots of your fics to expand on in my head and it’s just the perf combination to lull me to sleep.

now for imo the main event of this ask- i need to tell you the extreme and life threatening brainrot THIS specific line from Of Bouquets And Back Rubs has given me.

"Sorry," Matty apologizes.

George sighs, but doesn't stop. "I'm going to start talking to your therapist if you keep apologizing for things you don't need to apologize for," he says.

what the hell. you can’t just write that and expect my whole world to not revolve around it for the rest of my life. that line ping pongs around my head at all times. at work, in the shower, when i’m on a walk, when i’m laying in bed, it’s literally always on my mind. i don’t know why but i just thought you should know that’s it’s STUCK with me. like i’m truly affected. (if you ever wanted to expand on it you know you have at least one devoted fan of the idea)

hopefully this will be my first of many asks because it’s so nice to finally tell you how deeply in love i am with your words. to hold me accountable i’ll claim the matcha emoji 🍵 if that’s something you do!!!!

i just realised i didn’t tell you how your prompts make me melt but they do and i wouldn’t survive the commute to tafe without them. just little bites of pure literature you spoil us so much.

thanks for giving me something to lurk on and obsess over- it’s been an honour🩷 (also ps i wonder if you can figure out who this is based on the freaky amount of times i heart your posts. someone has to sit me down and explain that this isn’t instagram🤕)

Hi, newly christened Matcha Anon!! =)

I meant to answer this yesterday, but I just kept reading through it and being so incredibly touched and blown away by all of your kind words that I didn't entirely have a response, but I think I do now. I will also be long.

First of all, I am so touched (and a little surprised) that you find my writing to be on par with published novels, so thank you so much, that is such an amazing compliment!!! I can't believe I've spoiled you for fic. I'm getting back into the swing of things now that I'm home, so I'll have more fic for you soon.

I'm also so glad to hear that I've creating something moving. Sometimes I think I take things a little too seriously, particularly writing fic, but I'm thrilled to hear that you find my work moving. This will be stuck in my head forever:

"it would be a waste of art."

Roadkill was a lot to write because it gets so bleak and some of me is in there, but I'm so moved by your experience of reading it and honored that you would share it. That's my goal, generally--to create catharsis. And to see my fanfic called greatness? Oh my god. Oh my god. I have no words other than oh my god and thank you so, so much!!

I'm thrilled to see that Of Bouquets and Backrubs resonated with you, particularly that bit of dialogue. That whole fic was a little bit last minute, to be entirely honest and I was working so hard to make it fluffy, rather than angsty. I might expand on that fic in the future, but I also really like how it ended. Who knows what will happen. I don't.

I'm also so happy that you like the prompts! I think they're really fun to write and very low stakes for me. Apologies for not having a more regular schedule for posting anything, but there's no way I could keep that up for more than a week or two. I would explode.

Thank you so much for all the compliments and reading what I write!!! 💚💚💚
