As someone who has been playing Genshin Impact since launch, of course I had to play Honkai Star Rail as well. :)

So far I’m enjoying it a lot, there are a lot of things it does better than Genshin Impact, but other things it doesn’t. One thing I greatly enjoy more in GI is the combat, although it is nice to have a traditional feeling gacha combat that you can fast forward and auto battle, haha. But you know what I do love in it that GI lacks, having the companions out in the world and having a team instead of only one companion. But both games still struggle with knowing how clothing works, haha.

Anyway, this time I haven’t blocked my UID out, because having that traditional gacha combat also means being able to use other people’s characters without playing with them. I’m a solo GI player because I enjoy the teams I have and the whole element combo, and I only play the game with my nieces. This game I am willing to allow people to add me if they want, but I will still like some guide lines. 

I’m in my early 30s, so uh, you probably don’t want to add an old bag of bones if you aren’t around my age, haha. But I am not great at talking in online/multiplayer games, I’m busy playing the game and I am bad at multitasking, unless you have a general question, my chatting won’t be engaging for you (although I don’t even know where the chat is in this game, haha). I would also prefer people of the LGBTQIA community to add me, which includes those that support everyone a part of the rainbow community. With all the hatred and lack of caring towards our community these past months, and these horrific acts against human rights, especially to trans people, I am wary of people outside of our community. We need our own spaces to feel safe and relaxed, even if it’s adding people to your friend list in a video game (anyone who played that HP game can shoo away from me, including people a part of our community that make excuses to play it).

Oh and I don’t know who people would prefer as the support character, I did just finally get Himeko, so if you want her and decide to add me, you can message me about that, haha. But, although I am playing on the US server, I come from a land down under, so time zones are a thing and I might not see it for a while, haha.

Google: hello I recommend this show to you based on your interest in 1600s Japanese modern period dramas and animations

Me: oh actually this show is pretty neat, I like that the Japanese characters actually speak Japanese and not *winkwink* they're totes talking in Japanese but for the viewer's sake they're using English *winkwink* and from the sound of it traditional Japanese at that because this is sounding very antiquated and out of date compared to my rough knowledge of modern Japanese

Show: :)

Show: have 10 minutes of a character being tortured by being boiled to death in a large cast iron pot :)

Me: ...

Me: WHY

#Seems otherwise good but #I wish shows had better warning than 'may contain violence' #Like yeah it's a samurai show of fucking course it has violence #I'm expecting to see people's heads get chopped off not Human Soup #I know I know it's an actual torture method that was used back then but come on #At least narratively I had plenty of warning so I muted the fuck out of that shit and looked away until he wasn't actively dying on screen #And tbf most of it was background noise during an exclusively Japanese dialogue bit so I could just read the subtitles and not listen #Also maaaaajor yikes on the origin of the English word 'Japanese' #English speakers don't be racist challenge: impossible

with the incredibly important conversations on racism in bandom going on i just want to say and make it abundantly clear that if you find any of the posts people of color in bandom are making about it (the racism) annoying or unnecessary or ridiculous or anything but warranted and incredibly necessary this is not a safe space for you! you are not welcome! you are a part of the problem and have a lot of self reflection to do to unpack that which is Your work to do and not the work of the people of color in bandom!

#this is me speaking to fellow white bandom: we are here to listen and support the voices of poc. we are complicit in the racism #and if you aren't willing to do the work then you seriously need to look inwards as to Why. and also fuck off forever maybe #just really adamantly want to make it clear me and my blog are actively unsafe places for racist freaks. #and even more importantly than this being an unsafe space for racists it Is a safe space for poc. i am here for you and care about you ❤️ #txt

So I recently had a not-so-nice anon in my inbox asking why I write for desi readers when ‘barely anybody who is actually desi’ reads my works. I chose not to respond to their original ask because it has a few racist stereotypes, not to mention blatant insults.

First off, I’m sure that’s not true. I refuse to believe that on this enormous site with well over a million people there is not one desi who watched ATSV and fell in love with its characters, and wanted to see more of themselves in readers. I refuse to believe that because I know for a fact it’s not true; I’m moots with a few desi writers and let me tell you even if they don’t necessarily write fics targeted towards explicitly Indian readers, their works are still fantastic and yes, they read my desi fics. (vee silvia shoutout to u guys ily ❤️) And I’m sure that there are others, too. Maybe they don’t read my writing but I’m sure they’ve searched for a fic that has a protagonist that they can relate to, at least once.

That first part may not have made any sense but anyway — secondly, it is not my duty to have to write for everyone else. I can very well choose to write about my own culture and my own experiences if I want to. I write desi readers because in a way, ATSV helped me love my culture and my background. And now, I want to introduce other people to my experiences, and to my culture, because I think it’s beautiful. I personally LOVE reading fics with Latina (or any ethnicity at all) readers that highlight parts of their culture. I love reading about cultures that I previously wouldn’t know much about.

Anyway, to summarise this: fuck you anon I’m just gonna write more desi-centred fics 😊

I have scary dog privilege in a very specific way. I am not tall or muscular or even particularly mean looking (at least I don't think so...? Lol I have very soft features) but I am very strange and weird to those who meet me. Strangers tend to be freaked out by me before I've even said anything, and if I'm in a group with all my fem friends I'm always the one they turn to when they feel threatened/scared. I take pride in this btw.

#im like if a dog was fucked up maybe #ofc being off-putting can def make social situations hard but obs not impossible #like i have a pack and they are so kind to me and they think my off-puttingness is cutesy so whatevs U⁠^⁠ｪ⁠^⁠U #𑁍shut up shii𑁍 #miscecanis #omegaverse #misceanimalis #misceverse #i also try not to think about the fact that people find me intimidating bc im black 😒😒 #like no girll they're not weird and racist im just silly right ?

i feel like the obvious solution to the tension between “stede loving his very fancy and shiny pants is Good and Beautiful and he shouldn’t have to conform to a version of masculinity that was never authentic to who he was, that’s the whole point” and “shedding his old things is a sign of growth and narratively pleasing because he only obtained those beautiful things through money gained off systems of obscene human suffering” is that the newly actually-poor-not-just-broke stede and the crew should go steal new and even shinier clothes from rich assholes like the ones in e5

#like: it can be both! stede loving fancy clothes is good and he should get more and wear them with increasing confidence and self-assurance #but also casting off the trappings of a life he only lived because other people sufferedand died to create that wealth was needed too #so the answer: go rob some fucking rich fuckin racists and take it from THEM

People can feel free to keep posting their bad takes about Tech/Phee because I just write another 2-3k in a WIP or make a new one in response. If your goal is to up my fic output then gratz you've succeeded!

#I don't care if you don't like it #that's whatever #but passing off your opinions about #how tech would never be into her #or it's 'rushed' (WHAT IS RUSHED? NOTHING HAS HAPPENED) #or how she was so terrible to him #as if they're objectively correct #and not your read on the material #I am just so over all of that #so you don't like it #you don't need to write a screed on why it's actually #objectively bad and OMG IT'S ACTUALLY BAD AUTISTIC ROMANCE REP #shut up you don't speak for every autistic person #also the part where everyone remains #so convinced she's not trustworthy #and is going to betray them #racist as fuck read and it would be racist-ass writing too #ofc after the way they've done saw I wouldn't be surprised #but boy would I be mad

Something that really bothers me about the rose coloured glasses vis a vis tellius and fe fans (ESPECIALLY from 3h fans who learned about tellius later) is that many like soren purely because of his main ship (i mean i like ikesoren too but come the fuck on) and jokingly characterise soren as a stereotypical nasty mean limp wristed sarcastic gay man instead of a deeply flawed branded angry at the world and definitely trauma bonded to ike, but micaiah is still absolutely getting raked over the coals over the blood pact and not being ike’s fangirl

Well,

Jokes often involve flanderisation, so Soren being flanderised to oblivion when people joke about him isn't something I really care about, but maybe that's because I'm not really fond of Soren to begin with lol

What annoys me more is when some people try to rationalise Soren's anger and backstory by either pointing at Almedha or Deghinsea being responsible for everything, and I'm like, what.the.fuck?

Almedha's just, idk, I won't call it sexism, but damn - that woman loves her son who is the only reason why she hasn't completely lost her mind over 1/losing her powers 2/being casted away like trash by her "BF" 3/being rejected by her dad 4/thinking her brother was tortured and abused to death because of her actions 5/being separated from her beloved child.

Deghinsea being "uwu bad bcs he's the reason why brandeds are rejected by both beorcs and laguz" is another take I really am not fond of, and iirc I wrote a post earlier this year about it? But to some people who buy the "Crusts BaD" as the reason why Fodlan sucks, I guess they need to have someone to name and pill all of the world's nonsense rather than, well, in Tellius' case, realise that the worldbulding and the lore really sucks, to the point where the duology touted as the most "against racism" of the franchise, is pretty much way more racist than anything Tru Piss can throw us (yes, because in Tru Piss we have characters rejecting coexistence, in Tellius, it's the world mechanics - whenever a Beorc and a Laguz coexist too much, the Laguz dies...).

As for Miccy,

Just like, imo, Soren gains some "new" attention and "uwu excuses for why he's being a snarky jerk at times", Miccy used to be bashed when FE10 was released (with all the Mary Sue accusation being thrown around!) because she was written to be a sort of foil/antagonist to Ike, and when the party reunited, she was demoted to a "soul-jar" role, let it be regarding the greater plot, or, even, her own backstory!

TBH, for people who didn't play FE10, if Ike is the bestest thing since melted cheese, Miccy, who opposes him, must be BaD and so you can pile everything you don't like on her, hoping to see it stick.

Or even worse, I've seen posts here and there comparing Miccy to Supreme Leader and how misunderstood uwu she is, which is the worst insult poor Miccy ever received since FE10 came out rofl

#2goldensnitches #do you want to kill me friend lol #once upon a time discussions about soren and miccy were very animated lol #anyways i still don't like how some part of the fandom tries to uwu him #he is a character with flaws that sure are never called out in the game and by the main character but #they exist #and to uwu them away is imo a disservice and not a good reading on him #'but his backstory sad uwus' Sephiran also has a crapton of sad uwus for his backstory #and yet the game chews him out about his plans to destroy the world because hey fuck off #it's not fair to condemn the world and everyone who lives in it for your suffering #It's sort of hilarious because sometimes I wonder if Miccy wasn't also written as a Soren foil #Miccy is the one who doesn't like when Beorc call Laguz names #she lives in racist land and knows she has to hide else she'll die too #but she still came to care about the people who live here #she gets to talk to Vika who feels weirded out by her being a branded and yet they agree to continue talking/being friends despite it #Miccy never insults Rafiel calling him a half beast #Soren follows Ike and his lead but Miccy has to take the lead despite wanting to follow Pelleas at first #tfw we know more about Soren's backstory even after being kicked away from Daein than Miccy's lol #granted I loved what FE10 with Almedha when you see that some of his worst traits/flaws are actually shared by his mom lol #tl;dr : a Soren raised by his mom would have been even more of a jerk than the one we got #i have a lot of feelings about how Miccy was treated in FE10 which in turn sort of explains the vitriol she received from the fandom #but that's for another post lol else it'll be too long #basically FE10 is more Ike v.2 than a game where Miccy is the Lord

i’m a black girl and i adore martha, and i think the tenth doctor did NOT deserved her whatsoever. i feel uncomfortable with the idea of martha being paired with the guy who put her through so much horrible situations and was even racist. bc i mean, yeah, the characters aren’t real and rtd is racist & the real responsible for his characters actions but no other character in his era behaved as nasty as ten towards black people. he brushed off martha’s concerns about her race and invited a racist to the tardis so they could have a romance together while martha was there, and he comparing her to rose as if she’s second best, to the point martha admits he can’t see her for who she is, he’s just remembering someone else—someone who he wished was there instead of her—rose. and the way he dismisses her pain in the last of time lords and cries miserably for the man who imprisoned and slaved her family for an entire year. i know the master is his best friend and they have this toxic and complex relationship, but i can’t see him acting the same way regarding the tylers or the nobles, he’d be so pissed off with the master and would prioritize rose’s and donna’s feelings. he’d be like twelve with clara and missy. i think ten’s writing is very racist because, well… he is. sorry. but he is. twelve literally punched a racist to defend bill, ten’s chosen a racist over martha… the fact that she literally left because of the shitty, unfair way she was treated... and as someone who has been in martha’s shoes too many times, i feel really negative and repulsive about this tardis duo, especially with the romantic view on them.

sorry i had to vent off as i’ve seen too many people who’s against this pair having their reasons unfairly invalidated. when most of us are martha stans who believe she deserves all the good things–which tbh is the total opposite of giving her a romance with… ten, out of all incarnations. i have been noticing the martha fans who have a romanticized view on their relationship love to act like everyone who’s against it have racist reasons for it, like. no. just no. we’re not delusional and that’s it

hi! i just got off work, but i've been thinking about this for a minute. my response will be long, as i feel this deserves.

i first wanna preface this by saying that not wanting the doctor to be with martha is more than understandable given how horribly he treated her in canon. i myself struggled through all of her season, and i'm still not 100 percent sure whether i'll be able to watch certain episodes again. absolutely, the way ten treats martha is horrendous, and i would argue that all of his actions towards her in canon are informed by the racism woven so deeply into rtd's era. but the thing is, i feel that saying that the tenth doctor is racist is not going hard enough.

to say that ten is racist means overlooking the fact that ten as a character is supposed to function as someone who pays attention to the intricacies of marginalized communities. this was the authorial intent. the fact that the authorial intent involved ten being consistently racist towards martha means that the bias that must be examined should not be centered around the doctor himself, but with the writers. the writers authentically believed that the tenth doctor was not being racist when he allowed martha to be objectified by shakespeare, harassed by the woman he would later profess the potential of love to & express a desire to travel with, regularly reacts with visceral disgust/discomfort when she flirts with him (that one is the one that's the worst to me!!!) and i feel like saying "ten is racist" limits the scope of how monumentally awful it is that the writers wrote all of those things and still believed that they were writing a hero.

the doctor is always intended to be viewed as someone who has the best interests of humanity at heart. the doctor has also always been written as someone who fights for the rights of people that have been marginalized and oppressed, who makes tearful and impassioned speeches for the humanity of people who are seen as subhuman. the tenth doctor especially is portrayed as someone with boundless compassion who can see the good in everyone and always wants to find a way to forgive and love. this is the inarguable authorial intention re: the tenth doctor. this is why, to me, saying that he is racist erases how fucking horrifying it is that he is written as Not A Racist Person, Ever, while spending an entire season being viscerally, brutally, repeatedly racist to martha.

to sorta demonstrate my point: i think harry potter is a much better example of in-text bigotry from a fictional character that goes hand in hand with the writer's bigotry. ron responds to hermione's crusade for the rights of the house elves with "but they like being enslaved, hermione," and the narrative demonstrates that ron is right. which, sure, fucked up of jkr for perpetuating this message about forced servitude, no question, BUT ALSO ron as a character was raised within a system that repeatedly enforced this idea of the house-elves liking their servitude, was given no reason to question this message, and is not the kind of person to question it anyway. this is so, so, so different from the doctor, who has always been the kind of person to question shitty behavior, to fight for what's right, and to seek for and admire people exactly like martha.

and now to loop back to my own thoughts on ten and martha! i feel that my little two-sentence posts on "martha and the doctor could be cute" definitely did not delve into what motivated my statement. i wanna stress one more time that, if you have watched canon and cannot ever see martha and the doctor together because of how awfully he treated her, that is 100 percent valid and reasonable and i would never dream of correcting you. my anger towards the people who dismiss tenmartha as a concept has always been directed towards the people who are saying that ten could never love martha like he loved rose. i am very sorry that you saw my posts and felt otherwise.

i do not romanticize ten and martha's relationship as it exists in canon. as with my points re: ten, this is a situation where i am responding to a glaring gap in the writing. if the tenth doctor really was consistently written, written as we are intended to see him -- as a person who is loving, kind, always looking out for the people he chooses -- i honestly can't see a timeline where he wouldn't have some sort of romantic feelings towards martha. i feel that a season three written effectively could still carry forward ten's complicated feelings for rose while also honoring the joy and wonder of martha -- specifically, by having ten avoid romance with martha not because she's Not Rose, but because he doesn't want her to be a rebound, and he's worried that admitting he's enamored with martha would mean stringing her along (which, of course, in this situation, he would still be doing). i think a compelling story could be written about martha responding to his awkward and halfhearted attempts to rebuff her while never really letting go of her hand. the narrative would shift so much more clearly away from the clearly racist message of "the doctor obviously could never love martha like that" and so much more towards "the doctor is in love with martha and deeply emotionally damaged, and she deserves better."

but, again, this is the way i choose to engage with the text! and i wanna be really clear that this comes from a place of wanting to articulate exactly how ridiculous it is that the doctor would not love martha, when everything we learn about him as a character in every other season suggests that he would and should love her. if you see this discrepancy and feel antipathy towards the character for it, that is absolutely your prerogative and i would never ever take that away from you. it is fucked up writing and we are all dealing with it however we choose to. if you wanna watch s3 and hate ten forever, i truly think you have every right to do it. this is how i personally choose to express my own anger, and i hope it makes a little more sense laid out like this.

#asks #meta #i have a lot of feelings about this because i personally just. just cannot fucking believe #that there are people who watch s3 and feel even remotely ok about rtd's era afterwards #i like flipping the writing off by saying ten could love martha #i like the idea of him coming to the notion of loving her just as she's leaving him (because he fucking sucks at treating her right) #but i also so deeply long for the timeline where the show actually acknowledged how absurdly compatible that they are #instead of relying upon shitty racist writing to assert that he'd never see her like that. #anyway!!! i hope this helps clarify my feels #i agree with anon i just think it's worse than that.

I’ve not been active as much lately - personal stuff, work stress, my brain just taking a fucking nosedive - and then I come back and there’s fucking fatphobia and dickhead anons in people’s inboxes?!

Honestly, I feel like this is just the latest manifestation of the misogyny that’s sometimes rampant in this fandom, which often comes wrapped up with a nice little side of ageism and - dare I say it - a dash of racism. (Your friendly resident historian reminding you that fatphobia is intrinsically linked to white supremacy and racism. Please see the story of Sara Baartman as the most famous example thereof.)

I write my F!Reader fics with as minimal body description as possible not just to be inclusive in terms of race but also bodies. Imagine the Reader in whatever body you so wish.

In the case of my OFC, Lydia, in Visiting: while there’s few references to her appearance she’s explicitly someone with weight she wishes she didn’t have, stretch marks, the lot. And Ben isn’t in love with her because he “sees past her flaws” or “sees her inner beauty” or “sees her pretty face” or whatever fucking bullshit anyone remotely curvy has been fed in popular culture and their lives. He’s in love with her and he finds her impossibly sexy, full stop. As she is. As she will be. (Because bodies change, as his has done.)

Obviously it’s great to see the outpouring of anger about these idiot anons (seriously: go fuck yourselves) and that more people are going to write for more diverse bodies and readers.

But I want to just ask very nicely that we avoid “plus size reader” or “real body” just becoming a trope in fic, rather than actual, nuanced, representation.

And now I’m climbing off my soapbox. Slowly, because my joints are fucked.

#tw discourse #tw fandom wank #tw fatphobia #tw racist fucking bullshit #tw ageism nonsense #I’m not saying it’s misogyny but it’s misogyny #also whoever you are anon kindly fuck off as far away from me as humanly possible #fucking hell grow the fuck up

My experience on Twitter.Com:

Person: I hate this thing therefore everyone should hate it too

The comments: holy shit I hate this thing too. It's so awful! You can totally tell that this thing was made bc of stereotypes and to harm people on purpose

The thing: *is not inherently problematic, but has some elements that are kinda questionable and should be called into question*

Two Days Later

Person: whoops! Turns out the Creator of this thing is a minor and didn't know that it was problematic! I'm sooooo sorry you're getting hate for it and am in total support of you.

The Creator: Thank you so much for the support❤️ it's been super hard bc it was also based off of personal experience *Is very young and impressionable, will now internalize the idea that making mistakes is unforgivable forever, you can never learn from them ever, and also adults can and will come for your throat and unborn children just because they don't like something*

#like what the fuck bro #you never thought to look into their bio to begin with?? #and even poc artists are being pulled into question and deplatformed for their “racist” art when it's just unshaded realism #also there's no fucking reason to tear people apart for not knowing any better?? #see something problematic? call it out. RESPECTFULLY. creator is an asshole and refuses to acknowledge/fix said things #THEN you can WARN people about it #but there's no fucking reason to be bullying people off the fucking Internet or harassing kids #and i am not even a regular Twitter user! #what the hell! #twitter #twitter discourse

[piplupod]

honestly i wish i didnt know as much as i do about occultism and spirituality because it is so fucking frustrating to see ppl talk about it and they very obviously do not have the knowledge that i have. like i am so open to being wrong, but i see things that ppl are saying and i'm fairly certain that they just ... do not have the depth of knowledge i do, so they say very ignorant things, or draw lines between things in an incredibly (potentially dangerously) overgeneralized way. and i am just sitting here like "oh you have no clue what you are saying right now, do you? you do not realize what you are saying is unfortunately pretty damn wrong." and i have to back away from the screen bc i do not discuss these things anymore due to the brain being constantly ready to dropkick me straight into a mental health crisis

but christ alive i think anyone who engages with spirituality needs to read up on like. essentially Everything they can get their hands on, even if they do not necessarily agree with the ideas being presented, because that way !! you learn !! and you grow to realize what things are borne out of racism and grossly mystifying other cultures and straight up white supremacy and nazi ideology and encouraging psychotic symptoms that lead to mental health crises !!!

#i hate new age spirituality so much. soooo much. 90% of it is just racism repackaged with a pretty bow on top #and nobody realizes bc they do not know what the fuck they are engaging with :))) what the roots of it all actually is !!! #and i do not necessarily blame them but i am so .... its tiring. and disconcerting. and scary. to see all of it being paraded around #esp when ppl accuse you of being ignorant or cruel for criticising smth that is so fucking dangerous or racist hsdgjkl ARGH ARGH ARGH #just bc they themselves do not realize !! it is dangerous and/or racist!! and they assume you must be wrong to criticise them!!! #sorry im just hgdsgjkl. this drives me crazy. i also hope i dont sound egotistical or high-n-mighty #but i do genuinely know i have more knowledge than the average bear (not difficult to though tbh! u just have to read a lot!!) #because i was so fucking fixated on it and went delving into so many books and pdfs and websites and did my own stuff on my own time #for several years #i was DEEP in this stuff (and boy howdy my mental health suffered for it lmfao me when i lose touch w reality almost entirely !!) #AND OBVIOUSLY. not everyone is going to have the same exps i did when they do spirituality stuff #but . it is very common esp these days. there is a whole label for it lol #ALRIGHT IM DONE RANTING NOW. im going to log off from everything for a good long while today to try to reset my nervous system lmfao #sorry for the public yelling and wailing fsdfjkl #pippen needs 2nd breakfast
