I do not know if it was you, or another blogger that made a character analysis of Gojo that made me like the character and discover more about him through the manga.
While I never read the manga before or watched the anime, I had been exposed to it by my friends and some BNHA bloggers. Back then, I found Gojo to be overhyped (discount Kakashi) while liking the animation(?) style, bit still no interest.
BNHA and its Endeavour Redemption arc in the doing was tiring me to the point that I stopped reading it and manga altogether. For mayne six months or so, until now, at least. I randomly found your blog last week , and it got me a new hyper fixation 😃. You got me to start reading JJK (Megan cos playing also helps).
I bought Number 0 and Number 1 of the mangas. Only to remember midway in Number 0 that Walmart Kakashi will be snapped in two like a Kit Kat🥲. I saw that leak in one of the BNHA blogs, and I didn't mind it back then since I wasn't in the fandom, but Lord, now it sucks.
Anyways, all this long rant to say that I like reading your posts.
Gojo, rest in pain, I guess?
Probably was someone else, I don't write much analysis posts about Gojo. I think once or twice I did, I can't recall. Probably reblogged one though you saw!
I don't know, they're really just two different characters to me. Also... I was never really an active reader or watcher of Naruto like that (just very familiar) so when I first saw Gojo, Kakashi didn't register to me at all.
Like, I did not get similar vibes at all. And it actually annoys me that people will be like "He copied Kakashi's flow"! Kakashi ain't the only white haired, face covering character out there with magical eyes, y'all stop. 😆
Even funnier when, by this point, Gojo has probably been unmasked more than he has been wearing something on his face and switches up what he puts on his face. Kakashi been wearing the same mask for...? Also, didn't it take years for Kakashi's whole face to be shown or something? Took like seven episodes for Gojo to show that face.
**
I always been a fan of Megan's music and then when I found out she was into anime I was like "YYYYYEEEEEAAAAH". She cosplayed as Miruko one Halloween and it made my year. I am a former believer that Miruko would vibe to her music.
Just seeing other Black women being unapologetic fans of anime (or anything) does wonders for me and I hate it when people act as if it's such a foreign idea to understand. Honey, we can have interests, too, like everyone else. It's normal.
**
I always try to be careful about spoilers for anything I'm into. Like, I can talk about a chapter that happened two years ago, but I'll still mark as a spoiler because I know some people don't read Mangas or even if they do haven't caught up to that specific part.
That actually what set me off when Usher cosplayed as Gojo because he literally put "rest in peace, Gojo" or something along those lines and the amount of people who weren't even aware of 236... like bro, come on.
I knew it just had to be a marketing tactic because I know damn well Usher ain't seen JJK a day in his life and how convenient it is he comes out with that cosplay around the time when "Daddy's Home" becomes a fairly popular song used in Gojo's edits. I can't go watching one video on YouTube without hearing that song play when Gojo pops up. And even if he has... WHY WOULD YOU TAG IT LIKE THAT?!
Oh, but Megan definitely doesn't know any of the characters she be cosplaying, alright... okay... 🙄
I'm just going off on a whole tangent here, I apologize for that. I've been sick for like three days and just woke up from a nap. 😅
**
Also, thank you! Glad you enjoy my posts!! Anytime anyone says they like reading my posts, I still get shocked. They're really are just random thoughts I been having and really I'm still learning grasping the characters and story myself. And this is just for any. I don't even for them to get read, let alone for anyone to actually agree with me. I guess because, at the end of the day, I really just needed to throw a thought out there before I lose it or keep rethinking about it over and over.

✨31 DAYS OF DICK (GRAYSON)✨
2023 EDITION
Hello and Welcome everyone! With February here, the 31DOD prompt list had to make its appearance. This time we will be exploring a bit outside the realm of comics; we will make our panel presentation and writing... Limitless. There is far too much for all of us to say, so this time around the structure has been made more flexible. I also think these prompts are varied and quite fun! (I do hope you guys think so too!)
Just to make something clear before I continue, this prompt list is for the 31 Days Of Dick (Grayson) event that will start in March! Now, as you will notice, this prompt list will be separated in three different sections, this is, of course, to make this 31DOD experience different from the previous one and to maybe test the waters for future editions. Just like last time, you can join 31DOD whenever you like. If you want to do three, nine or twenty days of the event, you are completely free. None of these prompts require you to follow along each day. Also! Enjoy yourselves, have fun and even though there are some prompts where a choice must be made, be respectful and share your thoughts!
Well, without further ado, the 2023 Edition of 31DOD!
FAVOURITES (can be multiple):
1. Quote 2. Nightwing Issue 3. Headcanon 4. Suit 5. Team-up Issue 6. Weapon 7. Fanfiction 8. Skill 9. Dynamic with another character 10. Appearance in a non-Nightwing/team related issue 11. Trope 12. Nightwing comic artist 13. Nightwing comic writer 14. Headquarter 15. Vehicle
THIS or THAT:
16. Dick in Bludhaven or Dick in Gotham 17. Dick in Arkham Knight (video game) or Gotham Knights (video game) 18. Nightwing by Chuck Dixon or Nightwing by Tom Taylor 19. Dick and Roy or Dick and Wally 20. Dick and Bruce or Dick and Clark (choose your favourite parent) 21. OG Teen Titans team (1960 comic) or OG Young Justice team (show) 22. Robin!Dick mini or Dick!Bats mini (mini meaning short comic run)
WHAT IF...?:
23. Dick teamed up with a non-DC character, who would you like it to be? 24. Dick was a character in another universe of your choice, what role would he have? 25. Comics!Dick was sent to another universe, which one would you like it to be? 26. Dick had powers; what do you think they would be? 27. Dick had never lost his parents, what would his life look like? 28. Dick had adopted Jason Todd instead of Bruce? 29. Nightwing had a Black Label book? Would you like it? What would you like to see explored? 30. You had the chance to build the next creative team for a Nightwing run, who would be part of it?
FREE DAY!:
31. Do as you wish! Maybe I missed something that you would have liked to see in this edition… Enjoy your free day!
There it is everyone! If you have any doubts, ideas, questions, feedback about anything relating to 31DOD please do not hesitate and send me an ask! This is meant to be fun to everyone who wants to celebrate Dick Grayson in one of his birth months! If you want to join 31DOD in March, don't forget to use the #31DOD tag so everyone can find the posts relating to the event!
AND! This time, thanks to the always brilliant @hood-ex (who had already helped shape this new edition of 31DOD), we have created a side blog where we will also reblog all your posts! You will find the official 31DOD blog HERE! I hope I see you in March!

Tumblr media
hey everyone!! so, originally, i wanted to do one of these back when all of y'all were posting your 'follow forever' + favorite blogs lists for new year's eve, but at that point in time i didn't feel like i knew anyone well enough to make a full list. but now, it's been almost nine months (holy shit!!!) since i joined this fandom, and there have been so many people that i've connected with and who have made my experience on here so much fun and so special.
plus...it's my birthday today, so i thought - what better way to celebrate it than to show my immense love & appreciation for all my mutuals, followers friends, and anyone who has ever made my tumblr experience better?
this isn't really in any particular order, and also, i am so so sorry if i forgot anyone. i had to type this out at least six times over the past two months because tumblr kept deleting my progress for some reason, so i'm really sorry if i missed anyone because of it. i recognize the urls of anyone that regularly interacts with my posts, so i promise that if you've ever left nice tags in the reblogs of my gifs or replied to any of my WIPS or tagged me in a gifset or in a tag game or sent me a nice ask or anything at all, really, please know that i think you're wonderful and i love you all so much even if tumblr hates me and decided to erase all of the evidence of it 😅
okay, enough dillydallying!! putting this under a cut so that it doesn't swallow ur dash whole....n here we go :)
@fireplceashes hi jen!! i know i said like. just one paragraph above that this was in no particular order, but i immediately broke the no. 1 rule of law and lied, bc as my very first friend in this fandom you are so undoubtedly so special to me and i'm putting you first just because i Can and no one can stop me. but anyway. where do i even begin with you? you are easily one of the sweetest people i have Ever, ever met - not just on tumblr, but in my real life as well - and i really love talking to you So much. thank you so much for always listening to my rants, and checking up on me, and just generally being there for me. you're just a really soothing person to talk to and i never have to worry about being 'too much' or anything like that when i'm talking to you. and of course - you are also so, so talented, and your gifs are absolutely stunning. they always turn out so beautifully, and i'm so in awe of your editing skills. basically...i'm just Very grateful to have met you, and *mike wheeler voice* all of my other mutuals, they're great, but my fandom experience would not be the same without you ❤️
@basiltonpitch spencer!! i feel the need to echo the first thing i said to you and remind you that i think you're a genius :') fun fact that i haven't told you: when i first found your blog, even before i realized that you were That person who wrote the benvi meta that i loved, the first posts that i saw from you were your beautiful web weavings, and i was immediately like Who is this person??? and Who gave them the permission to stomp all over my heart like this?? wtf?? i just. i love ur brain So so much and i'm so grateful that i get to enjoy your creativity in not one but two of my favorite fandoms (soon to be 3 with 911 maybe?) oh also...this is slightly embarrassing but i've gone back through your blog a few times just so i can read your incredible meta because all of your thoughts are so valuable to me. you are the Only person on this site that i trust to Get devi vishwakumar and one of the biggest reasons why i'm so excited for never have i ever s4 to drop is so that i can experience it alongside you!! and even outside of your creative genius, you are one of my favorite people to talk to bc you're so kind and so supportive and such an absolute sweetheart and i really love hearing everything you have to say. so. um. basically. i am just a Spencer Enthusiast through and through 💖
@padmedala carson!! hello!! first off, i've said this to you a million times, but i want to thank you once again for writing one of my favorite pieces of byler fanfiction. do you know that one post about reading fanfics and having to stop because 'he would not say that?' well, your work is the epitome of reading a fic and feeling wholly satisfied because yes, he would say that - in fact, i would not hesitate for a minute to say that you have the strongest grasp on will and mike's characterization - especially their dynamic together - out of any writer i've met in this entire fandom. like...i enjoy your writing so much that i've read a couple of your pieces for IT despite not having any knowledge of the source material simply because i wanted to experience more of your work. you're also such a deeply kind and supportive person, and you have no idea how much i appreciate every single time you've checked up on me or sent me a sweet message or even just dropped into my inbox to say hello. you make my dash infinitely brighter, and i'm so very glad to know you and have you as a friend on here 💞
@wllbyers dani!! hi!! i have so much to say abt how wonderful you are, and i was struggling w how to articulate this for a while, but then i remembered that you once said to me that you found my presence on the dash comforting, and honestly, that's exactly how i feel about you. forgive me for the awkward metaphor, but seeing you on the dash is like coming home after a long day and having a warm, home-cooked meal. seeing your url and icon always makes me smile, and i'm so grateful that we're mutuals because of how kind, considerate, and utterly genuine you are!! i don't know if i'm describing this right, but you just feel so real, you know? i feel like your personality shines through with every post you make, and i always love seeing it. and i'm sorry if this is weird to say, but your openness and your authenticity about everything going on in your life makes me feel a little bit less alone about my own struggles. also do you remember when you started watching 911 and eventually ended up getting ahead of me, and you tagged each and every one of your posts just so that i wouldn't get spoiled? i know it seems simple, but the sheer fact that you thought of doing that just for me had me melting into a little puddle w my face looking like that one meme of kristen bell. you are just so, so lovely and i'm unbelievably glad we're mutuals 🥰
@willblogger ima i've said this many times before but i absolutely Need to say it again: you are genuinely the funniest person on byler tumblr. i cannot count the number of times that you've made me full-on belly laugh (to the point where my stomach starts to hurt) and completely destroyed my attempts to casually and inconspicuously scroll through tumblr in public places. i dunno how you do it at all but every single thing you say is such an absolute delight and i am always giggling n kicking my feet when i read the tags on all of your posts. the thousands of people on tiktok and twitter copying your jokes could never do it like you. you've also got this deep understanding of the way the text has been written and i really appreciate how your analysis honors the characters as they are instead of trying to make them more palatable them for this fandom. it's just. it's rare to find people that love these characters as they are and understand them as well as you do and i feel very lucky to have found your blog. also this is not related at all but ur plushies are cute as fuck & i love them :) OH!! n thank u sm for being my number one stevebucky enthusiast mutual n partner in rage when it comes to avengers endgame!! can't wait to have a hate party w you (if you'd like) in five days 💗
@willelfanpage SARA HI HELLO do u see me waving at you. this is me holding up a banner screaming abt how much i love you. as the resident fandom cheerleader who gives and gives and gives so much love to everyone she interacts with, you deserve someone cheering YOU back on and that is what i am here to do!! you are so brilliant and you have never made an incorrect post in your life!!! all your fics are wonderful and i've loved reading them!! you are kind, you are smart, you are funny, and you make everyone around you feel so safe and comfortable and welcome here. like. i can't tell you how much i admire how open you are with your kindness and friendship and how you give it so freely to everyone you interact with. i love talking to you so much - whether it's hearing about your life or sharing our ideas with one another or just. venting about anything i want to - and your enthusiasm is utterly infectious and makes me feel more hyped and excited to be in fandom. forgive me for being so sappy on main but i will never not be touched by your endless love for fandom, not only these characters and the works that people make, but for the people around you as well and i hope u know i love u very much too 💞
@jackietaylcrs hii marianne fellow haver of good taste!! i remember you once made a post wondering if your followers would still love you if your stranger posting went down to 0.5% and i wanted to lyk that i definitely would!! i really like reading your commentary on ST and yellowjackets, but even when you're posting about a show that i'm not familiar with, you have this Way of speaking that i find very charming and funny and entertaining, and you bring this inimitable energy to my dash that i doubt i could ever find elsewhere. i like the way you sign off your posts with 'and like i say: brf slt.' i think it’s Neat n it fits you very well. alsooo THANK YOU very very much for being the one to convince me to watch yellowjackets!! people have been telling me to watch it for a long time but in the end it was your posts that made me say, fuck it, and finally watch it. also. um. ur posts abt stephen harrison make me feel very Seen so. thank u. ok bye 💗
@emblazons hello marie my beloved mutual marie!! honestly, out of everything in this post, this message was the hardest to write because i don't even know where to begin with you!! you bring so, so much to this fandom - your thoughtful, entertaining, levelheaded commentary, your stunning gifsets, your logical and witty posts, your incredibly supportive and kind personality, and your endless passion for this show and all that goes into making it, as well as our shared love & enthusiasm for noah schnapp 😅 every time i think you've made the most brilliant observation or put out the most beautiful set, you go and top yourself by finding something new or making an even prettier gifset. if i had to pick one person whose contributions to the fandom enriched my experience of this show? more than anyone, it would be you!! and i could go on and wax poetic about your talent forever (as i have on many, many occasions bc you deserve it 🥰), but i'm gonna end it here by saying that you are a gift to this fandom and one of my absolute favorite people on here, and that i'm beyond grateful to know you.
@mikeandwillel sandy!!!! you are so so smart and your analysis is absolutely incredible. i look forward to each and every one of your analyses because you always find the most clever parallels and your deep dives into each of these characters' arcs are always written with so much care and skill. and of course, i forever have you to thank for writing The ultimate masterpiece (your s4 painting arc analysis) that finally convinced me of byler endgame and thus made my fandom experience so much more relaxing and fun. i also really love & how much you love mike for all that he is -- i feel like it's a little rare in this fandom, so seeing how much you adore his true character and how you Understand him better than anyone else i've ever met makes me really happy. and not to mention, i have no idea how you managed to get so good at gifmaking in such a short amount of time but all your sets are so beautiful!! you're a gem fr 💖

@kaliprasad - hi!! your blog is amazing and i'm so glad that i found it bc all your gifs are fantastic and i love them So much. i think your talent is insane tbh, that byers brothers set that you made for me a little while ago is still one of my favorite things i've seen on this whole site, and i love that you love them just as much as i do 🫂

@padme-amidala - hi erika!! okay, calling you a gifmaker almost feels wrong because that word doesn't feel like enough to encompass how beautiful your work is...all ur ideas are So amazing and you have such a natural eye for color and detail!! it is so clear that you pour so much love into all of your creations, and if i'm being honest, one of the reasons why i am so grateful to be a byler shipper is so that i can appreciate your craft to the fullest. and you're also Such a genuinely kind person that i always look forward to seeing on the dash!! thank you for being so lovely!!
@wiseatom - hi thea!! your writing is the ultimate definition of comfort. when i read ur work, no matter what i'm doing physically, mentally i am in my cozy bed with the fireplace crackling in the corner, surrounded by twinkly lights and warm blankets, sipping hot cocoa bc that is the kind of emotion ur writing invokes ✨
@byeler - irene!! your fics were my introduction to the world of byler fics and i admire you and your writing so very much 💞 i don't know how it's possible for one person to have this much skill and talent, but you do, and i'm so grateful that you've chosen to share it with us. eagerly waiting on a new heavy hopes chapter was one of the highlights of my fandom experience and that fic is a piece of writing that i will always come back to over and over again 🫶
@astrobei - suni i have been reading fics for over a decade now and i have still never encountered a writer that does emotion quite like you do, devastating me with every single fic you put out. i promise i mean this in the best way possible but you're So damn good at capturing all of that heartbreak and pain and inflicting the same agony on your readers, and it would have killed me by now if not for the fact that you're equally good at writing the sweetest fluff that has me melting into a puddle whenever i read 🫂
@hopelessromanfic - lyssaaaa!!! i've been Such a huge fan of landslide ever since you started writing it - it's one of my all time favorite fics in the fandom and i'm obsessed with the storyline and your characterization in all of your fics 😍
@artistaquinterob - hi!! your art style is so ADORABLE and your use of color in your work is stunning and i just adore everything you draw, especially your will and el art and your jargyle art 🥹
@junkoandthediamonds - your character studies are beautiful and i'm obsessed with your byler comics, your gifs and your ST x DC crossovers!!! i love your realistic style so So much and if i worked for the duffers i would 1000000% hire you to draw the official comics because i can't get enough of your work 🥰
@livsmessydoodles - fun fact: last year, when HSMTMTS s3 was airing, i remember seeing your rina art throughout the season and immediately fell in love with your style and your interpretation of the characters, and the same exact thing happened when i saw your ST work, and it wasn't until you followed me that i put the pieces together and realized that you were the same person 😅 your style is So gorgeous and your art just makes me so happy, and trust me when i say that i am mentally wallpapering all of your work to the inside of my brain so i can look at it forever❣️

INTRODUCING THE CHOSEN HOLIDAY CHALLENGE!
Seasons greetings! Thank you to everyone who's given feedback on this idea for a prompt-based challenge (shoutout to @aceofstars16 and @dizzyizzie10 for help brainstorming and @littlemissbigears, @sojourner-between-worlds and @randowwriter for the signal boosts). This challenge is for anyone in the Chosen Tumblr Army (or folks who just think the show is Neat) interested in writing, drawing, or photo/gif editing.
Here's how the challenge will work:
Advent is the season before Christmas, celebrated over the (usually) 4 weeks leading up to Christmas Day. Each Sunday, a candle is lit to commemorate 4 themes of the season: hope, peace, joy, and love.
For this holiday challenge, I'll post weekly themes with prompts between now and Dec. 24, then follow up with prompts related to Christmas and Epiphany. These prompts will attempt to be open enough that anyone can run with them in creative ways.
Here are guidelines for filling the prompts and posting:
For each theme, try to post your piece between the given dates (e.g. Advent Theme 1 between Dec. 3 and Dec. 9)
Mention @angedemystere in the post
Tag your post #thechosenholidaychallenge
Drabbles, poems, short stories, longer-form excerpts are welcome
All physical or digital art is welcome
If your work has any explicit content, please tag and include warnings
OCs are welcome!
The themes and prompts will appear about a week before the "window" for submissions (e.g. today Nov. 27 I'll announce the theme for Advent 1, which you can post between Dec. 3 and Dec. 9) so everyone has a little extra time to brainstorm and create.
I'll reblog all prompt responses the day after each deadline and tag them (e.g. #theme:hope for Advent 1 week). If you can't do a prompt for a certain week, no problem - that's why there will be new themes and prompts each week. Join the ones that inspire you!
The schedule for the themes:
Week 1 (Dec. 3-9): Hope
Week 2 (Dec. 10-16): Peace
Week 3 (Dec. 17-23): Joy
Week 4 (Dec. 24-30): Love/Light/New Life
Week 5 (Dec. 31-Jan. 6): Epiphany
You'll notice that the themes for Advent 4 and Christmas will be for the same week. That's because Advent 4 Sunday falls on Christmas Eve this year. As Nathanael might say, they're practically on top of each other. So prompts for both themes will be available that week - double the options!
Please remember that this is meant to be in the spirit of fun and appreciation of both The Chosen and the holiday season. Please reblog to spread the word and enjoy!

WELCOME TO THE OC PRIDE CHALLENGE 2023!
Hello guys, gals, nonbinary pals, and every other lovely person in this community! The time has come for your (second) favorite challenge! Thanks to you all for voting on the polls, this challenge is a little different than previous years despite some of the winners but we hope you’ll still enjoy!
Rules
This challenge is for LGBTQ+ ocs only... hence why it’s called the pride challenge.
Tag your posts with #opc2023 in order to have them reblogged. (please do not tag any non-challenge related edits with this)
DON’T steal edits. If you feel your edit or someone else's has been stolen, report it to our submission box by following these guidelines.
If you want to make a crossover edit with somebody else’s oc, make sure the other person is okay with crossovers.
Feel free to send us any questions and keep in mind that all challenges are up for interpretation.
Be kind!!

Make something for an oc that identifies as gay!

Tropes are a ton of fun, and there’s a trope for basically everything! This pride challenge as something new but exciting (hopefully!), we are doing LGBTQIA+ tropes week! Take a look at this list (or come up with your own) and apply them to your ocs!
WEEK THREE (June 15th—21st): LGBTQIA+ ARTISTS
Unfortunately guys there is only so many weeks in a month, and therefore we’ve dropped AU week (although look out for a special edition of it in the valentines challenge of this year), but we are keeping our favorite LGBTQIA+ artists around! You know the drill, promote your favs with an edit/drabble to one of their songs or poems!
WEEK FOUR (June 22nd—28th): PROMPTS
Prompt #1 (June 22nd): Pride/Proud
It’s what this month is all about so of course we’re bringing back this one!
Prompt #2 (June 23rd): Freedom
Making something for an oc using the word free and/or freedom! Are they free, are they pining for freedom? Use it however you’d like!
Prompt #3 (June 24th): Worth/Worthy
Make an oc creation using the word worth or worthy! Whether they use L'Oréal Paris' or not, you know they’re worth it.
Prompt #4 (June 25th): Truth
Let your ocs live their truth and use the word in a creation!
Prompt #5 (June 26th): Growth
As our ocs find their identities, they experience a lot of growth, so make a creation sing the word Growth!
Prompt #6 (June 27th): Change
As Taylor Swift said, these things will change. I can even feel it now! Can you and your ocs? Well show us through this word prompt
Prompt #7 (June 28th): Reflect
Use the word reflect in an oc creation! Are they reflecting on a relationship? On their journey to self-discovery?
THE LAST TWO DAYS
Day 29 (June 29th): Here’s My Review... Not Gay Enough
We all know it; How Harry met Sally, the 10 things Kat hates about Patrick, what happens when Juliet faces the loss of her Romeo... But what about when Harry met Sully? The 10 things Kurt hates about Patrick? When Julio faces the loss of his Romeo? Well, I’m sure you get the point. Take a classic het romance and show us in another fun way how love is love! 
Day 30 (June 30th): Gift to The World
Hopefully you’ve signed up for the pride exchange on @ocpotluck and you can spend this day admiring everyone’s creations and adoring your gift!

bff help 😭😭😭😭 i look up to you so much (and a lot of other royai/riza fan artists, but you seem the most friendly) and i wanna start posting my own riza art, but im scared ill be booed off the app 😭 any advice for first time fma artists? 🥺 i mostly plan on just making riza fanarts, a little riza x oc, stuff like that. thank you 💕
WAAAHH anon you're so sweet!! First and foremost GRABS YOU you should absolutely post your Riza art! Everyone should post Riza art forever because I'm starving and slurp it up. But you should ALSO post it because it's fun to create and share with people! No one is going to boo you off of the platform, and frankly if anyone tries to they probably need to take a long walk in nature and say hi to some people they pass on the street.
As far as advice, the biggest thing is to try to avoid the "# notes = success/good quality" thinking. It's totally natural to want feedback, and Internet Validation Numbers is encouraging! But if you post something and it doesn't immediately get attention, don't beat yourself up about the quality of your work. Some of my favorite pieces (drawings and writing) are "flops", but I try not to let that discourage me or sour how I feel about them. Sometimes it's just bad luck with timing; or good luck, oppositely
Okay now for more technical advice:
Schedule your posts on tumblr. I usually schedule my art to post at 7:30pm EST kind of arbitrarily, it feels like a good compromise of time zones. Please do know that you might flashbang yourself with your art every time (I do lmfao)
Reblog your work again the next day; mix up your timing and don't be afraid to do a few self-reblogs.
Tag your posts thoughtfully but not excessively, afaik only the first 5 tags are will be where it shows up (EDIT: apparently I'm thinking of 2014 tumblr and it's now the first 30 tags! But I would also posit you absolutely will never fucking need 30 tags. Over tagging will not help, so only tag what's relevant). Series name and acronyms, character name(s), and ship name are good. Also include a tag that you put on all your art so you and others can find it easily!
Comedy usually has more reach. People love silly memes and shitposts and frankly who can blame them! That's not to say serious posts don't also get attention, but just something I noticed
HAVE FUN!!!! this sounds so patronizing, but honestly it's best to do things that appeal to you and have fun with likeminded people. Your passion and enjoyment with telegraph through your work and it will make people smile!!!
I also just want to say that a lot of other Rizalikers are super friendly!!! It can be intimidating to talk to people, but we're all just freaks on the internet rotating a fictional character in our heads. The best way to get to know people is just to reach out and comment on their art/writing/silly posts. It doesn't need to be anything crazy! You can also join fandom discord servers to talk to them on a more casual (and frankly easier) platform, with less pressure because it's less 1-on-1. If you want to DM them (discord or tumblr) def go for it, but I would recommend against just saying "hi!" and then not following it up with anything else, because then I just go "hi!" and then I don't know how to push the conversation forward lol
I would love to see your creations and hear your Rizathoughts, Anon! I believe in you! I hope you decide to come play with us in this rizaspace. Feel free to message me off anon or send me a DM if you want to chat :]

For the honest answer ask game: what's the history of your blog? (this really just includes how/when you began blogging on tumblr, content, your interactions and your special moments on here etc; whatever you wish to prioritize for the ask in context).
honest hour question answered 3 days later <3 truly hope the wait was worth it love hahah
as someone who's gone through my archive already, you know i started out as a bts fan account in 2015. (my previous blog is not gonna be discussed for the simple reason that it's barely relevant to this one)
i believe i used to tag and organise my reblogs? there was a time where i cared enough and i loved srolling through my own blog, i stopped enjoying that when i became more involved w/ fandom on here and things weren't aesthetics based anymore. i don't like going through it that much now. i used to play around with themes, search for them, tweak colours and fonts for hours. after i returned years later there was an issue with the editor so now i can't change my theme at all and it sucks cause i just want to edit a few things.
so it started of as a bts fanblog, then i started rb-ing other kpop stuff, maybe afterwards i started sharing gifsets from movies and series i liked? as for fandom, i had a good amount of mutuals - accidentally became one with a girl from my country, we went out once and it was very nice <3 procrastinated and lost track fo tag games back then too lmaoo i felt a lot of dissatisfaction over it so i try to do everything now with my current fandom :)
back then is when i started reading fanfiction - i believe my first imagine was a taegi one where v was an artist and yoongi a photographer lol i stumbled upon it on the dash randomly and i got introduced to ao3 a bit after
iirc for the following years after i'd stopped stanning bts, i used to come back either relatively often or once in a blue moon - in the beginning i was just enjoying wtv my dash was offering me or seeking out specific stuff, then i started using it as a tracklist of what shows i've watched haha, no tags, just rb after finishing a show.
i started engaging with fandom around the release of episode 5 of kinnporsche, i read a bunch of posts on here, then tms2 came around and i got even more into reading people's takes..at some point i started talking to people i guess hahah i don't even know when i started trying to put out content, so to say, i just know i was doing screenshot posts short before i found myself pushed to attempt gifs and that was after big dragon had just finished airing.
then i started my giffing journey. had support from @gillianthecat whom i loved giffing paulnice for. honestly that and the discussions we had were such an important part of me having fun with this site and keeping it up. and @joyladagang, my self-proclaimed #1 hype woman, made me feel super welcome. then i got even more moots, at some point i started reaching out or actively reciprocating others attempts at getting closer (though i had been active in discussions before that, i just mean i got a bit braver and started acting more familiar with everyone (esp w/ ppl i got closer to through @joyladagang like @cankersoregirl, @feralmuskyscentedhoepran, @loserlesbianongsa etc.)
i'm grateful to a lot of people on here, truly. it's not supposed to be a shoutout post so i won't be tagging any more people (esp since i would have to tag everyone who follows me plus a bunch of people i follow which..it's a bit much) but i'm genuinely thankful for each person that enjoys my rants, gifs, theories or wtv the things i post classify as, whether they found a post by accident or follow the blog. and i'm grateful to the creators i follow, and i'm happy to talk to so many sweet, smart and funny individuals on various topics daily.
so this is where my blog is at right now - trying to do a bit of everything and talking a bit with everyone. my issue, tbh, is i'm trying a bit too hard to satisfy everyone which sounds ridiculous but i am a bit of a people pleaser at times so it checks out lol

Idk how old your post/rblog is and i have a rant sorry you're the receiver. I used to love Jonsa crackship years ago before the show "hints" and like the amount of people shipping it has ruined it for me tbh.
And in general, idk if in my lack of tumblr use for like 5 years, everyone "grew out of tumblr' and left cause i've come back and :( it's ship wars and character wars and at least who i followed (all 4+years since they last blogged) even when they disliked a character they never just IGNORED characteristics and stuff. Like Catelyn and Sansa were always victims of misogynistic takes but at least people weren't utterly praying for their demise like i see now.
besides like Euron and the Mountain and like Ramsay and Roose, it's hard not to see the good AND the bad of every character, male or female, that's sorta the point of the series..... like even Jaime "throw a kid out the window" Lannister has a whole ass redemption arc (and my personal theory will still die despite growth!) like ughhh
sorry to rant, but like I feel like I can't follow any asoiaf blog that isn't casual rblogs cause everyone is so PRESSED in trying to up their faves that they destroy others in the process.... how is this fun for anyone???? do you like the media you are consuming????
you can just delete this i'm just tired.
I respect your fandom experience but I have a different one. I wasn't always on Tumblr but I've been a fan of asoiaf books even before the show started airing and I don't agree that things were better in the past. Dudebros on reddit (and on other platforms) always considered Catelyn and Sansa the worst characters ever simply because they found them boring. But I also remember fans making fun of the trauma Jon Snow has thanks to his stepmother, calling him whinny and saying that he should be grateful he didn't have it worse. Long before Jon//sa, I remember Sansa and San//san fans taking elements from Arya's and other Starks' stories to give to their favourite character/pairing. And then I also remember the Dark! Dany and Political! Jon theories rising. So yeah, fandom always had awful takes.
On the other hand, I've read some great meta from various fans other the years, seen some beautiful edits and art, read good fanfictions and even make some friends. So, I'm not going to say that everything about the asoiaf fandom is awful because that would untrue.
I don't post/reblog of mine triggered your ask but I guess that's what matter the least. The most important is how we should all curate our own fandom experience. My advice to anyone who might read this is to block tags of stuff that trigger/irritate you, block blogs that annoy you ( or simply post about your disliked characters/ships) and follow people whose content you enjoy.

Hey! I’ve been doing writing requests and drawing requests for my WTTT AU, Family Ties. But!! There are some rules (more to be added):
– I don’t write or draw NSFW, that’s not what this blog is for. This AU is about family bonds. I’ll have another blog for more NSFW.
– Requested Art has to be from a one-shot I’ve already written, usually just a sentence or a scene from it.
– Please be specific about which scene/quote you want me to draw!
– Requested One-Shots and Art will be centered around the AU!!
– The only canon ships (currently) are:
– New York/Massachusetts/New Jersey
– Georgia/Pennsylvania/Virginia/Maryland
– Delaware/Connecticut
– Gov/Assistant
You can also ask about lore or about the characters in general! I have the headcanon ask game somewhere around here <3. You can even ask about me! I won’t answer questions I’m uncomfortable answering though, and it may take a while; I’m in college and have a job.
Thanks everyone!!
Quick Edit:
What I WILL write/ on this blog:
– Family Fluff/Silliness
– Romantic Fluff (between pre-established couples)
– Hurt/Comfort, emotional and physical
– Headcanons (see the Ask Game Reblog on the ‘reblog’ or ‘wttt’ tag/any sort of headcanons)
– Magical Mishaps are fun (especially when Gov and Assistant are the victims of it and it doesn’t actually do damage; ie, de-aging or turning them into cats or whatever)
– Murder/Gore (I’m not good at it; but Assistants killed one person and ate two others already so)
– Parent-Child interactions, sibling/friendship/cousin/we-lived-in-the-same-house-raised-by-the-same-people interactions, established romantic partner interactions, be it fluff or silly or someone getting hurt and comforted after
What I will NOT write/draw on this Blog;
– Incest
~No Og13/Other States
~No Dept/Dept
~No Gov or Assistant/State or City or Dept
~City/City…depends, NY/MA/NJ cities won’t date each other, nor will PA/GA/VA/MD cities, nor will they date each other. They will date other OG13 cities, but none of the other 37 State Cities.
– NSFW. I do have an NSFW WTTT Au, with a different version of Gov— named Cyrus— and no Assistant, but I will be making a separate blog for that when I have it figured out. This is a SFW blog.
– Hurt/No Comfort. Gov and Assistant would kill me (alternatively; if Gov or Assistant are the ones hurt and get no comfort, the States, Depts, Cities and Agencies would kill me). Family Ties is an au about healing after severe miscommunications and it’s supposed to be fluff and love and protectiveness (and that sometimes includes murder)
Please remember:
– WTTT is not the only thing I write/draw, it’s just my main thing right now
– If you have an idea for writing/drawing but don’t want to try and condense it into an ask, you can message me!
– I am both a college student and work part-time, so there may be long periods between posts
– If you have any questions about the Family Ties AU (or any other AU that may show up on my blog as my hyper-fixations shift and change), just ask! I’m happy to answer if I can.
– This AU is very, very, very loosely based on actual statistics and events; I mostly watch Ben’s videos and the character suddenly possesses me to tell me who they are. There is very little base in actual facts, though I do try sometimes.

⬆✨My literal face right now while i’m making this post ✨⬆
So it’s official, i hit 2.5k i think sometime last week (woohoo 🥳), i said it in my follower celebration last year that i never thought i’d get this amount of followers but i’m saying it again now, and knowing how long i’ve been on this site (10 long damn yrs on and off) some of those followers are probably inactive at this point but yeah i just wanted to say thanks to everyone who follows me, interacts with me and loves the gifs i create as it motivates me to want to create more and learn more (even when i get annoyed about how bad the like/reblog ratio is nowadays haha)
So i’m gonna take the opportunity to thank you guys (new and old) for sticking with me through the years and through all the fandoms and my multifandom mess blog, i know this place has definitely become more stranger things centric this past year but yeah, it’s still a multifandom mess haha.
I wanna get some gif requests going and maybe some other stuff too.
So if you wanna take part send me some things:
✨ + a colour palette + character/ship/show/whatever i post about
🎨 + 2 colours + character/ship/show/whatever i post about (i know that sounds similar to the colour palette meme but it’ll be different i swear lol...)
🌵 + 2 things and make me choose between them (mix it up doesn’t have to be characters, could be outfits etc.)
⏰ + show ep/movie and i’ll blindly pick scene from them for a gifset
⚡ for some other general gif requests maybe (idk maybe you have an idea of a particular steve harrington scene you want me to add to my growing endless steve gifs - or maybe just well anything related to what i gif?)
🎵 i’ll put my Spotify on shuffle and make 5 song playlist for you
(dunno what to ask for? take a look at my last celebration/ my gifs for some insp)
Some mutual only things:
💜 and i’ll give you a compliment for your blog (i won’t lie it’ll probably end up being something generic from how bad i am at complimenting people but i’ll give it my best shot)
and for my gif/editing making mutuals
⭐ i’ll list my 3 of my fave edits of yours and why i like them
I think that’s all i had? I’m not sure i’ve been typing and re-typing this for hours now so who knows?
Gonna tag some mutuals new and old in no particular order under the cut, i know i don’t actually talk to well over half of you and i’m probably just that rando mutual you see sitting alone in the corner at parties but hey, feel free to promote or not completely up to you i’m not fussed.
@himboharringtxn @agentjemmafitzsimmons @ne8ula @mattssmurdock @spacejesusobiwan @babygirlspector @natasharomanovf @spookyharrington @alivedean @bebecas @pegsccarter @deanncastiel @nikolatexla @tomhollandd @achingly-shy @emziess @werewolfsteve @finalgalnancy @kamala-khann
i know i’ve missed people and if i didn’t tag you i’m sorry, i just never know who to tag in stuff like this

The votes are in!
Good Girls Appreciation Week 2022 will take place Sunday, August 7th through Saturday, August 13th.
WHAT IS IT?
Good Girls Appreciation Week 2022 is seven straight days of dedicated fans creating and sharing new content showing their love for the show. Each day of the week has a specific theme voted by fans to interpret as creatively as they like!
I don't know about you guys, but life has been more depressing than usual lately and Good Girls gives us an escape. Let's have some fun with this!!
WHAT ARE THE THEMED DAYS?
Y'all voted and here they are:
Tumblr media
WHO PARTICIPATES?
Everybody! Creators create, and the larger fandom boosts those creations with likes and (especially!) reblogs to spread the joy.
It’s a great time for people that have thought about trying their hand at content creation to give it a go!
#GGAW2022
More details under the cut.
HOW DO I PARTICIPATE?
You can participate as much or as little as you like. If just one day speaks to you, create content based on that theme. Post it on the allotted day with the designated hashtag, and boom, you’ve participated!
Several people have already expressed interest in what kind of content they’d like to contribute, but there’s no official sign-up. You can lurk for a few days, get a feel for it, and then post, or you can start planning and creating now, waiting for the official week to post.
WHAT ARE THE RULES?
I know rules are lame but we have to make this thing a somewhat official thing somehow 😂. There are 6 important rules of #ggaw2022 so that we see a #GGAW2022 post when we see it:
Keep it positive! This means when you’re focusing on your love of A, B, or C, you avoid tearing down X, Y, and Z in the process.
Spread the love! Like the posts you see and encourage content creators, old and especially new! Hit that reblog button a little more often. The fandom benefits when we support each other and encourage newbies to try their hand at creating something. Let creators know what you think they’ve done especially well by leaving positive tags and/or dropping a note in their inbox!
Use the designated hashtag! Tag all posts #ggaw2022 so that anyone following the tag can see all the new content as its uploaded.
Use headings or captions! Try to use a heading or caption that alludes to which day you are posting for, e.g. “Day 2: Favorite Location - The Park.”
Post within your timezone! The days last a little longer here in Good Girls Land where time is fake and everyone counts on their fingers! Don't worry about calculating numbers—the day starts at 12:01 am and ends at 11:59 pm in whatever timezone you happen to be in.
Do your best! Try your best to post by the designated day, but remember: this is supposed to be fun. If you miss the designated day but are still really inspired to make or finish something for it, share it anyway!
WHAT TYPE OF CONTENT SHOULD WE SHARE?
Literally anything that makes you feel some sort of way. Gifsets, videos, photo manipulations & edits, moodboards, drabbles or short fics, imagines, metas, fanart, playlists, and whatever else you can think of! Wanna make a cross-stitch pattern and share it with the rest of us? Wanna make a list of GG-inspired recipes? Want to make a movie poster? Go for it!
WHAT ABOUT PROMPTS?
The survey showed me how many ideas y'all have for this so we'll try this! Submit them to my inbox (@peachraindrops) anon or not, whatever feels best, and I'll post them all in an inspiration post a week from today, July 20th, 2022 in an aggregated (and nameless!) list. The prompts will be used for creators to draw inspiration from and maybe even hit a few of your favorite things!
FINALLY:
We all want to see these themes the way you interpret them! Again, the more creative, the better. In the end, I just hope this brings a little bit of joy back into everyone's lives because that's what we need right now, right?!
& the final finally:
thanks to everyone for all of the excitement and participation, and even more finally to @foxmagpie for letting me rip most of this post from GGAW2021. I would have been lost trying to figure this out without something so detailed to go off lol.
Reblog to spread the word!

a couple of things
Hey friends,
I just wanted to say a couple of things about the Goncharov joke I made the other day:
First, I do not regret it, because I still think it’s hilarious.
But more seriously...
I didn’t try to edit IMDB. It’s a public record and it’s important that we don’t vandalise those. The only reason to try and change or annotate a public record is when they are wrong, and then it’s really important to try and get it changed or annotated. In this case, I just did a very quick editing job with Paint.NET, my free art app of choice.
I waited until Lynda Carter (or her team on her behalf) had already made a joke about Goncharov to show they were in on it, and probably wouldn’t be confused or offended. Once I saw they were likely to get the joke, I went ahead with it.
Once I had posted, I didn’t flag it with Lynda Carter or her team in any way. It’s generally a bad idea to pester celebrities with your own fan works for a lot of reasons -- it can overwhelm and offend to start with, which is reason enough, and what I was concerned about in this case. But depending on the fanwork it can also have legal implications (eg. if they are a writer and you send them a written fanwork, it opens them to a possible copyright infringement lawsuit if they come up with a similar idea off their own bat later). In this case, I just tagged it “Lynda Carter” and she or her team likely found it that way. I’m tickled pink that they did and also thought it was funny and worth a reblog, but it’s not something I sought out.
I also made some changes to the screepcaps I used in the post, which were from Starsky & Hutch. I generally always make some kind of edits to screencaps so they are transformative works. In this case, I changed the colour-grade so they looked more like the right genre, and did a bit of cleaning up and cropping because I just got them from YouTube and the quality wasn’t great.
I wanted to make this post because I’ve seen a few people in the tags wonder who had changed IMDB to add Goncharov to Ms Carter’s page. Maybe they were just making very meta jokes, but in case they weren’t -- I didn’t change anything and IMDB’s entry for Lynda Carter is still barren of Goncharov.
Please don’t try to change public records for a joke. It’s a very terrible idea.
If you see anyone confused by the Goncharov joke I made, please direct them here to put their mind at ease.
Thanks to everyone who enjoyed the joke -- seeing the notifications come in has kept me amused for days now.

Okay, so! following advice from people in tags & reblogs I’ve disabled further reblogs in that particular post. (here, just so it’s clear I’m not trying to hide anything or act like I didn’t fuck up, because I did. I fucked up bad lmao) I’m also going to copy-paste my explanation on a readmore which is gonna be added to the OP in an edit. With the hopes to show that this isn’t something I want to be swept under the rug but I definitely want to make it clear that I do not think those things now and I absolutely do not think you’re a terrible person for not wanting yourself (or other people!) to be in pain. That’s a shitty thing to say and it was coming from a very bad place and I shouldn’t have posted it. :So if you’ve already read my ammended reblog, you DON’T need to read this one cause it’s basically just the same thing lol (I’m sorry, I would write another “new” post as suggested but I really don’t think I have the energy for it rn) & in closing thank you everyone for pointing out the badness of it, I appreciate everyone who took the time to pull me up on the bullshit bad thought processes, and even MORE appreciate those afterwards who have given me advice on how to deal with the “fallout” so to speak without coming across like I’m running & trying to hide from my mess up. Thank you, for the final time, and I hope you all have a great day/weekend/whatever! <33
Okay wow this post blew up (and rightfully so!!) Anyway I did want to reblog this and clear the air & also apologise  because jesus if I could punch younger me for writing this I would. What  the fuck Elven lmfao. I’ve written a TL’DR version in the replies section which I’m going to paste here for clarity’s sake and also in case someone doesn’t want to read a hella long post (even tho I really think all the replies here should be read, 100%! ):  OP here! I  don't have enough characters to tag everyone, but hopefully this still  gets seen lmao Thank y'all for the feedback and I do appreciate it.  Admittedly I'd forgotten I even queue'd this post and I wrote it at a  time where I probably...should not have been on the internet LMAO so I  take full responsibility for it being yikes, and I am sorry. I'll be  adding this into a reblog in the hopes more people will see this.
(also I’m sorry, I  would LOVE to be able to like, reblog this individually to every reply  but that might be not only annoying but repetitive and maybe even  condescending?? so I’ve attached it to the longest RB chain I can find  with the caveat that I think you should absolutely look at and read the other reblogs not in this chain bc they are very correct and have made some very good points!) Aaandd I’m going to (try to) elaborate more here where I have unlimited “room” to babble, not because I want to excuse my shitty post but rather I do want to explain and I have seen a couple tags in rb’s wondering whether this was an “oversight” on my part so this is my attempt to answer that question with “yes, sort of”. Still doesn’t mean I wasn’t ableist myself and still doesn’t mean I wasn’t a fucking asshole. I was both of those things, but here is (as far as I can figure out) some of the context and maybe a thought process behind this post that might shed some light on the ranty part sjhdjkdg
 I genuinely didn’t even remember I’d written this  so I cannot 100% remember the context behind this or even when exactly I wrote it, but I can almost guarantee it was written about 2 years ago, when I was going through a very rough time in my life ON TOP of dealing with supposed family members and friends being ableist and all the rest of it so I genuinely cannot even pin down which interaction or situation it was that set this off. It doesn’t excuse what I wrote and I’m not trying to say that at all, I know I fucked up here and I will 100% admit to that and take the L. But I would like it to be known that if I had known this post was in my queue (I have memory problems as a result of some of my own mental health issues that were caused during this period, I’m not just trying to be like “Oh woopsie daisy I’m not responsible bc I didn’t remember I wrote the post lol!”) I would have deleted it before it even got out there. I’ve not actually looked at the queue in my main blog for 2 years and for that as well I’m sorry. Believe it or not, I’ve gotten to a better more emotionally matuire point in my life now and I can say with full confidence that I would not have made this post now, today, ever. I would have screamed into a pillow about the person or situation that set it off (I can’t tell you exactly what it was because I cannot remember, I’ve had so much bad things happen in the past 2 years and because of that I’ve developed memory “holes” so to speak) and been done with it. I certianly would not have said...that.I’m not perfect and I do vent here sometimes, but absolutely not like this and I’ve been learning to pull up problematic thought processes like this!
Again, not trying to excuse my actions or say I’m not respsonsible, I am. I just don’t want people to think that I’m saying this right now because holy shit I re-read this and I’m horrified. To the people who added onto this and who called me out, genuinely from the bottom of my heart, thank you. You are all 100% valid and it needed to be said. I’ve never had a post blow up this big so ig my closing question is, if I delete the OP post is that a) in bad taste? I definitely don’t hold those viewpoints anymore but I also don’t want to seem like I’m trying to hide the fact that I made a mistake and I feel like if I delete it, it might come off that way?? and b) if I did delete the OP post, what happens to the reblogs attached to it? Will they still be readable? there are a lot of good points and good reads in the reblogs and I don’t want those to disappear if the OP post does. Not gonna do anything with the OP post just yet in case I get some feedback on this, but yeah, I just wanted to both apologise and clear stuff up. Moral of the story: check yourself before you wreck yourself and stay off the internet when you’re in the middle of a meltdown bc you’re only going to embarrass yourself at best or make yourself look like a total prick at worst.

Introduction
Hey I finally made one of these.
My name is Cupcake!
I am 20 and go by all pronouns including it/its and neos! I write, you can check out my works under the #my writing tag!
Check out my AUs masterlist!
Art progress blog: @cupcake-draws
Learn more about me under the cut!
I am 20. People under 13 do not follow me and people under 16 be mindful when interacting. If I interact first then you're alright.
You can use any and all pronouns for me including it/its and neos! I am unlabeled for now when it comes to gender identity but I'll edit this if it changes. I am on the aroace spectrum but love is confusing so I usually just say I'm omni. Both gender and romance are confusing tbh
I am white. I live in Europe, Hungary which means my English can be a little whack so feel free to correct my mistakes. I speak Hungarian (duh) and English but I've been learning Spanish and Romanian for a while now.
I am neurodivergent and I have a handful of symptoms I am still making sense of in therapy. I have OSDD and I don't mind talking about it here but there will be things I may not answer if asked. I accept some questions about my general mental health too but I might not answer them all.
I do use tone tags every so often and even tho I likely won't ask you to use them, it would be appreciated if you did.
I am a writer. I mainly post fanfiction but I have original stories I haven't really showed anyone yet. Maybe someday.
You can find me on AO3, but I am the most active here if you want to interact.
My main tags are
#my writing - for the stuff I write
#caupcakes - things about my AUs
#cake save tag - for stuff I find interesting or useful for later. Writing advice, life advice or just good work from people
#cake updates - fanfic updates, life updates, any kinda updates I have about stuff comes here
#cake rambles - me talking a lot about stuff
#cake rants - stuff that made me upset (you can filter this if you're just here for my writing)
#cake after midnight - stupid stuff. makes no sense. we are balling. time is a concept made up by the governent
My fandoms
Cookie Run (kingdom and ovenbreak but I am a bit more into kingdom)
Arcane
Five Nights at Freddies
Sonic
Undertale & Deltarune
Batman (more so Batfam but shrug)
& many others but those are my main fandoms right now.
Boundaries
Spam interactions are welcome and very much appreciated.
Reblogs > Comments > Likes
My DMs are open but I might take a bit to answer! I do love chatting and interacting with people tho so feel free to drop by.
My Asks and Submissions are also open! You can ask me about my fandoms, headcanons, wips or even slightly personal stuff if you'd like to get to know me.
DNI
Racists/Homophobes/Abelists/Bigots in general. Just the basic DNI criteria of Don't Be An Asshole.
Pedos/MAPS/NOMAPS/PEAR or whatever you call yourself. Get out of my blog and my life. This includes Frans Undertale fans. If you ship Frans please leave! Thanks!
Proship/Anti anti or again whatever you call yourself. You are not welcome here.
Incest supporters fictional or not. This includes Fontcest Undertale fans.
Pro ed/pro ana/thinspo/fatspo just leave. Get help go to therapy.
People who harass others about their religion, fandoms or ships. I don't care what you believe in, what fandom/media you enjoy or who you ship (as long as its. legal.) just be chill about it. Don't harrass others for what they like/dislike (again, as long as it's not them supporting proship).
NFT bros/NFT supporters please just leave. You have been told 1000 times why its bad I won't be the one to explain 1001 times. This includes people who support Devsisters for their shit. You can critically engage with the fandom but don't defend Devsis.
I am not an all seeing entity so if you notice that I am engaging with somebody who has been exposed as a shitty person (anything from my DNI) then please tell me. I don't do a deep cleaning research on everyone's blogs who I come across but I'd like to know if it happens!
