#anyway ik this doesnt make sense

Me reading a fic where the person had an identidy realization that they were in he aroace spectrum and now they were figuring themselves out(I finally found something that understood me and a romance I could relate to after all these years)

#love loses! you're on the aroace spectrum and you dont fucking know what you are but you're definitely on the spectrum #but it's so hard to explain bcuz how do youve never had a real crush on someone but also have had platonic feelings for someone #and dont want to do the romance thing but also still want to have a queer platonic relationship and do romance things? #YOU DONT #IT DOESNT MAKE SENSE TO ME BUT I JUST KNOW #ESPECIALLY BECAUSE I CANT JUST GET CRUSHES ON PEOPLE IT TAKES YEARS I'VE ONLY HAD 1 CRUSH THROUGHOUT MY LIFE #AND I JUST WANTWD TO BE FRIENDS WITH HIM #I thought that was just me but the author was projecting and explained perfectly what i was going through #and ik i say “I cried” a lot when talking about something but i did actually cry #had to put my phone down bcuz it felt so nice to be understood #idk just venting and rambling lol #aroace #ace spectrum #gotta keep a journal on this bcuz i want to explain to people but it's so hard for even me to grasp #and i feel like they won't believe me anyways bcuz ive tried to himt st it but i just get weird looks #its annoying but it is what it is #aromantic #asexual #lgbt #queer #talking #rambling

gale voice here feel the pulse of the magic in my heart that will eventually be the end of me. im on my knees before you like an animal showing its belly. im in excrutiating pain bc of the contact with the magic in my heart but please dont take your hand away please dont stop touching me

#gale of waterdeep #paydja plays baldur's gate #the relationship a lot of the companions have with their bodies is fucking fascinating #but gale and karlach's relation to their heart and to human contact is particularly compelling #i cant say who has it worse bc thats a stupid comparison to make when they both have hearts that could literally detonate at any moment #[ik that karlach cant do human contact at all and gale cant but im talking abt emotionally significant contact which is smth they share] #but rn im focusing on gale ill talk abt karlach later #hes so interesting like hes initially played as arrogant but i think that whole thing with mystra #really fucked him up bc he talks abt himself like hes. not a means to an end per se but u get the gist #you can see the way he talks abt sense and sensuality and emotional connection but as soon as you actually offer it via flirting or just #genuine compliments hes always surprised and always changes the subject #partially out of like. emotiona damage and partially bc he doesnt want to go boom #ANYWAY WHAT IM SAYING IS hes in pain bc of the contact being made with the magic that makes up his heart but #by god please dont take your hand away. please dont stop touching him. please #i hate this fucking game i hate it so much #chattering #sorry for the analysis it WILL happen again #im talking abt gale rn bc hes my favourite and currently the character i know the most about via gameplay #but there is PLENTY i can say abt everyone #god i keep saying this but its like why are you so good sometimes and also so bad. fucking Larian.

Can we talk ab just how ,,, lonely Luffy looks here ??

I bring this up, bc initially, I thought this was Luffy standing next to Shanks. Instead, it’s Luffy standing next to a windmill (Foosha village). We can assume that this is pre-Ace & Sabo because Luffy is not wearing his hat, so this is either pre-Shanks or current-Shanks.

Luffy is looking out & as we know now, he was lonely as a child. His fear is of being alone & this encapsulates just how straight up alone Luffy was. That the only thing he had was his village, but he wanted more. Luffy is looking out to sea, seemingly for adventure. For freedom. For friends. Anyone who could take him off the island & allow him to leave from everything he knew (his loneliness)

#ANYWAYS. sorry I was ranting ab this on discord & thougut I would bring it here #LIKE IK IT PROBS DOESNT MEAN MUCH BC ITS BARLEY EVEN A TEASER SHOT #but this shot just looks amazing & the tone of it as well . I could not get it out of my head #I’m also running on 5 hrs of sleep after an almlst 9 hr shift so half of this probs makes 0 sense HDJSJJS #one piece

Ok yes America hating the cold is funny (eh) BUT. have you considered that I like the imagery of an America sitting alone in the forest in the bleak mid-winter landscape of an east coast woods, all alone in both body and mind, agonizing over her seeming doom to be stuck in the throes of loneliness for all eternity?

#aph nyo america #aph america #i want engagement <3 #secret confession i actually hate that canonically america doesnt do well in the cold #it gives too much ammo to the west coasters (villains) who can’t let my poor baby alfred be the east coast girl he truly is #also in a broader sense i feel like it creates a weird divide in both the portrayal of america and the connection he has with his country #as its representation #america is one of the most climate diverse countries in the entire world and i feel like making the REPRESENTATION OF AMERICA not be able t #handle a large majority of his country’s climate is an Odd choice and creates an unfortunate barrier between american culture #and the way it’s portrayed in hetalia #imo one of the most amazing parts of the geography of the us is its ability to be a metaphor for the american people #so insanely diverse and fundamentally different and completely irreconcilable—but it works anyways. #the land works together anyways //we// work together anyways we become one anyways despite what any and all logic dictates #what any and all logic DEMANDS #so for america to not be able to represent that cohesion + community—and in fact represent an intense and almost INNATE complete inability #to even try being accepting of and embracing our differences—is just.. not something I like + insinuates a very odd view of American cultur #my eyes are shutting as i type this im so tired #sorry if this is horribly written rip #i see this a lot in the hetalia fandom (IK I JUST DID IT IN THIS POST LMAO BUT I SWEAR I DO IT AS A JOKE; I REALLY DO APPRECIATE THE WEST #COAST AND AM FULLY AWARE OF ITS ROLE IN THE US CULTURE AND FUNCTION) where people write alfred as being almost hostilely exclusionary??? #towards certain areas of america—city al who doesn’t like the country; country al who doesn’t like the newfangled cities; northerner al #who hates the southerners (because theyre poor + dont fit the author’s view of respectable people BUT THATS FOR A DIFFERENT POST);southerne #al who hates the northerners—and it’s all very gross to me. america is not—at its core—a country/culture founded on separation!! our ideals #are based on being—at our most basic—separate multi-faceted individuals who COME TOGETHER!! as one because of common ideals and love #E PLURIBUS UNUM!!!!!! #ok im done gn

Malleus would probably be like "who experiences jealousy?? lmao I am above that" and then list all the symptoms of RSD to Lilia while profusely sweating from the force of trying to continue to mask and be like "What Does This Feeling Mean?"

#im projecting but im also right and u know I am ok #yuu gets mildly upset with him once and he's tearing up his floorboards resisting the urge to go to them and absolutely kiss ass until he i #reaffirmed about their positive view of him #also ik its more than just Jealousy i literally experience it but its the only way i experience jealousy so i cant describe Normal jealousy #if that makes sense #anyways with malleus' abandonment and general self esteem issues from never being properly socialized there's no chance he doesnt have it

I like to imagine that rather than buying new clothes for neil to go to the club andrew just gave him one of his own outfits. They’re the same size and he doesn’t even like or trust neil at this point so why would he spend money on him when he probably won’t come out with them again HOWEVER he is gay and would appreciate seeing neil in his own clothes.

#like #ik it probably doesnt make sense for him to do this but andrew is so gay for neil #neil josten #andrew minyard #andreil #aftg #all for the game #the foxhole court #the raven king #the kings men #tfc #anyways #txt

my hope for the pokemon presents that i know will not happen is gates to infinity remake ok bye

#listen i knowwwwwwww explorers is more popular and its got more fans and itd sell well and itd be good to see it in the spotlight #i agree with all that it makes sense. but i cant help but view it as a bowsers inside story remake scenario #where its just like. kinda pointless bc the original is functionally fine #meanwhile my soul hurts when i think about how gti was kinda screwed over by its development and time #it came out during that time all 3ds games felt really janky to play so it feels awkward #and like. just compare the environments in gti compared to psmd #psmd doessss have more diverse environments to be fair but environments that should feel more grand just feel off in gti #like glacier palace doesnt look AWFUL but it hurts to see it compared to the animated version from the commercials #and like. imagine the glow up if it got the dx treatment. if the environments were all fixed and the job system was updated #and we got a larger starter pool and maybe even a postgame. ik they didnt add much to pmd dx #but that game had a fairly beefy postgame and all that while gti has.... pretty much nothing besides dlc #anyways it wont happen bc gti is the most hated pmd game by a fairly wide margin and itd piss ppl off and itd probably get a bullshit $60 #price tag #but like. i want it. i want it ok. i want to see them fix gti and bring out its full potential. i love its story sm #ik theres the demake but theyre also changing the pokemon choices there (which ik they cant help. repository doesnt have timburr and gurdur #but still) so i kinda wanna wait to see when thats done or its got all the assets

My toxic trait is that I kinda ship Garrus and Miranda

#fully convinced that the only reason they never actually talked in the games #is bc theyre both speak in such a sexy aloof way #that both of them talking that way to each other would just sound like theyre gonna bang #i wrote a couple scenes wjth them a while back in a shakarian fic and had to cut them #bc it was like effortlessly sexy and forth banter #and i couldnt even make them friendly with their me2 vibes without it turning shippy #i am. convinced the me2 writers ran into the same problem. #ik a lot of ppl dont talk much but they really really never do #the only thing is that if you dont have jack hes like half of us dont even trust you and objects when miranda #volunteers to be squad leader #but it doesnt make any sense bc when hr first gets there hes like cool guns shouldve joined up sooner lol #and clearly never has an issue with the cerberus thing #so whys he the one who randomly doesnt trust miranda and not tali who has spoken to miranda #and does not trust her #anyway. garrus and miranda is a secret ship that they dont want you to know about bc it makes too much sense to not happen #and then neither woukd ever get romanced bc youd see them together and be like no they beling together actually #i feel like i should be writing this much more ironically but im really not i think ive come to ship it more as i wrote this #theyre basically neo noir femme fatale and vigilantr detective #send post #what if i wrote a fic #......... #god i wanna write a fic. why do i wanna writr a fic and do art? #like suoer slinky sexy femsheps kinda annoy me in art tbh bc no matter how u play she never really has that vibe in game #but it does work next to garrus is the thing #miranda fits that bill #im gojna write a fic #what would it even be about holy shit #ok like. i honestly always habe shep push back against the vigilante thing bc if theyre anti cerberus they should probably #also be against what garrus is doing #depending on the reasoning but overall they have similar goals

Theres an unfinished mini essay about lucien cramp in my drafts rn

#its been sitting there for a few weeks i remember writing so much and getting screenshots from the book for it #lucien is such an interesting protagnoist. basically.. he doesnt fit at all in his family #hes mocked and belittled by all of them actually #he is an activist and critical thinker at a young age and he is shunned by everyone for it; even his teachers #he is very hypervigilant (as seen in the book. makes sense w his brother constantly beating him at random) #he is an overthinker for sure; as seen in the book Twinsani-. oh im just rewriting the draft at this point. lol #txt #i relate to lucien a lot ik i dont talk abt him much but i hate how people say hes an annoying or bad protagonist.. #i sometimes wonder if they made lucien that way to mock people like him or if it was genuine #bc in the first book he didnt have much of a personality other than “f e a r” #he was just a quiet bystander mostly but i think in the first book they are a bit younger than in tge show. thats just a headcanon tho #but anyways maybe thats why #i wonder how much of the show was directed by brian wood. obviously many changes were made!!

Hi! Genuinely curious. I know a lot of artists don’t like qrts on Twitter because they remove engagement from the original post, but on tumblr, the engagement stays with the original poster, so I’m curious why you don’t want comments on reblogs. Is the engagement thing why you don’t like comments on your art, or is there a different reason?

hi! so im going to write this post with the assumption some people who read it may be unfamiliar with tumblr so pls excuse me if im explaining things you personally already know/is considered common sense/etc... i am also unsure which parts i should consider common knowledge/how far to explain so please forgive me if i overexplain a bit!

so on tumblr, comments on art do not affect engagement, but it is still commonly held etiquette not to add comments directly onto reblogs of art.

the reason for this is that when you add a comment directly onto a reblog (ie, not in tags nor the reply function) is that the comment becomes permanently affixed to that version of the post. it becomes a secondary caption, basically; it is not the same as a reply on twitter or a comment on insta. if the reblog with the comment is reblogged by someone else, that comment will remain and can continue to be shared, even if the commenter were to later delete the post. you now then, effectively, have a new version of the post that has additions to it.

this has become somewhat more of an issue lately, as tumblr recently updated to remove the ability to go to where somebody reblogged a post from. which is to say, if somebody encountered a post that has a lot of additive comments on it, but wanted to reblog the original/a version with less or different comments, they can no longer do so unless they scavenged someones blog for the post manually.

generally speaking, many artists prefer no direct additions be made to their posts (although sometimes people add image descriptor IDs, which i dont mind people doing) so that only the original iteration exists and can be reblogged, without anything extra added onto it that isn't meant to be there. the reply function (looks like a chat bubble at the bottom of a post) is a newer addition, but most people still prefer to add thoughts/commentary in tags -- since reblog tags only serve an organizational purpose within someones own blog/exist to help filter content warnings, it is very commonly used to add comments, since that will stay within someone's specific reblog and will not affect or change a post. original posters are still notified of every reblog and their tags (and i really like to go through and read/reread tags), so any commentary can still be appreciated and seen even without having to attach it to a post directly

tl;dr: id just prefer my art posts to be able to stand alone and be able to be shared that way w/out extra comments/a comment chain on them

i hope this helps answer the question...!

#umbrvx.ask #ofc different ppl are different too... idk if there r ppl who dont care abt additive reblogs but #in my experience using tumblr since like 2012 ik this has been the generally held etiquette...! afaik at least #anyways im sorry if i am overexplaining #ik quite a few new ppl are joining so i didnt know how much to consider common sense or not #also i hope it doesnt seem like i am making a big thing of it i dislike telling ppl what to do... #but ive been seeing it happen a bit more lately n thought itd just be worth at least trying to say something rather than hope ppl just know

in my dsmp canon cdream is like close in age to cwilbur, just slightly younger, so just keep that in mind lol

#dream smp #dsmp #ik i tend to talk a lot in the tags when i could just post all my thoughts in the regular post but i feel like that clogs it #fundy was born when wilbur was 20. my timeline makes no sense so forgive me. fundy is 8 when wilbur is 28. when fundy is 14 wilbur is 34 #and thats when nov 16th happens imo. thats when the final battle of pogtopia v manburg happens and thats when wilbur dies. #ignore my tommy design concept sketch's age info (i literally just wasnt sure what to put. at this time tommy would be like 21 not 18) #all of this to say dream is like 29 when wilbur dies #things change its possible i'll just switch stuff around so that the ages arent so crazy but idk i like keeping it somewhat realistic #also fundy needs to be 14 by the time wilbur dies bc ghostbur remembers him being 14. and i am. stuck on my own rules ive made up in my hea #as for the fundy/dream engagement.. fundy was always more into it than dream was. like cc wise. he always brought up ''i have a husband'' #and stuff like that even though there wasnt an actual wedding yet. and even tubbo asks (in character) how it feels being engaged to dream #even though theyre fighting on opposite sides of the war. ANYWAY anyway.. in my dsmo canon cfundy initiates the ''romance'' and instead of #yk.. not giving a kid the time of day. cdream allows it. and its all a war tactic or whatever. hes not actually interested in fundy but #it'll rile up fundy's dad. and it'll cause a rift between fundy and all his friends on the other side of the war. #meanwhile fundy is completely lovestruck and doesnt understand that 1. this is wrong and 2. hes being led on :( #definitely adds to his issues with feeling unloved and unwanted in the future but shhh we dont need to talk about that

Listen I am I one of those moods again holy fucking shit I need to rant to badly

I fucking cannot with Ei and Yae. Like I genuinely love their characters but when I think of them along with Scara I get so unbelievably pissed. Scara was like a fuking child that Yae wanted to kill and that Ei neglected. His choices are his own and he should face the consequences but you cannot deny that Ei is a horrible fucking parent and its ridiculous that Nahida does a better job than her despite Scara trying to fucking kill her.

Scara fucked up but he was also taken advantage of and manipulated. His resentment began when he thought everyone he cared about betrayed him and I will never forgive Dottore for that among other shit for that. Ei created the dude and then just dipped and that is unexcusable. Yae gets a slight pass considering she wasn't the one who created him. Ei did. Ei had a responsibility and her trauma does not excuse that. She made him into a vessel to take the gnosis and then said nah you feel too many emotions. You cannot bring someone sentient into the world and then choose to abandon them even if that's what you thought the nicer option would be. He was left alone for 500 fucking years. That is absolutely insane. Maybe it's the older sib in me or maybe it's not but as much as I love Ei I cannot excuse her actions at all. God this is so complicated

#froggy rambles #I AM IN A MOOD OKAY DONT JUDGE ME #idk how ei thought leaving him alone would be the nicer option #thats so stupid girl #also yae why tf was your first idea to kill him #nah bruh i dont vibe with that at all #i still like ei okay #and well yae is alright but meh idgaf about her #this is mainly fueled by the sheer contrast of how nahida and ei treat scara in different circumstances #the one who has the most reason to not like him is the one who helped him more #compared to his literal mother who created another puppet that led to her ppl being opressed for a year #ik its only one year but like you literally fucked over so many of your ppl #you took away the thing that made them literally to preserve eternity #how the fuck is robbing ppl of their ambitions preserving eternity #oh but that was the puppet #no stfu it was under her orders #she created that puppet after she failed with scara who only was a fail for showing emotions!!!!! #anyways i have nothing else to say #this probs doesnt make sense but i didnt write to make sense #i just have many emotions #genshin impact
