#I'm tender ; u;

[biggest-gaudiest-patronuses]

oh right, technically i sell t-shirts

i forgot about that

#holidays are coming up and it would make a terrible gift #that's the main selling point #anyways these exist and can be exchanged for legal tender #the cost is the listed price + the emotional expense of knowing that i am judging u #bc i am. i am judging u #why would u want this. why would u exchange currency for this #there are so many other things you could exchnage currency for instead #a grocery store shrimp platter for instance #with the nauseatingly red cocktail sauce that is SO much better than a t shirt any time #hmm chicken picatta at a local Italian Eatery perchance? i am. a big fan of anything picatta #oh oh i know! 3.6 POUNDS OF FRESH OKRA #FOR THE COST OF THIS FRIVOLOUS T SHIRT U COULD INSTEAD PURCHASE 3.6 POUNDS OF FRESH DELICIOUS OKRA #and then --hold on i have a recipe--and then what u do is #so it is basically sacrilege to suggest this but what u do is u skip the cornmeal entirely #my southern ancestors are shaking a wooden spoon at me right now but LISTEN. u skip. the gotdang. cornmeal #instead: wash chop and soak (for 10 min) the okra in a mixture of 1 egg to tblsp water #then coat in flour #THATS IT JUST FLOUR #No cornmeal. i am betraying my heritage rn but I'm RIGHT #coat in flour sprinkle liberally in S&P and FRY that suck in veg oil high heat #until crispy & brown & u hear your arteries clenching in apprehension #so. so yeah #that's what u should do instead of buying this shirt go fry the shit out of some okra #(but buy local and young & tender if u can bc the grocery store is full of old-and-therefore-super-stiff specimens #pro tip (aka grandma tip): if u can't chop okra smoothly with your normal cutting knife then it's too old and tough. #...i mean u probably CAN still fry the shit out of it I've certainly done that before it's just much less delicious #ANYWAY. anyway ANYWAY. shirt. okra. farmers market. that reminds me of a post i made back when we first started selling these dang shorts #shirts. shorts shorts. oh shit i should make a crop top option. #i. i don't Know How to make a crop top option #HUH . . . i need to lie down now and contemplate the constant and irreconcilable limitations of the human experience good night

one of the things that i think we should pay attention to, socially, about the disney v. desantis thing is that it is really highlighting the importance of remembering nuance.

in a purely neutral sense, if you engage in something problematic, that does not mean you are necessarily agreeing with what makes it problematic. and i am worried that we have become... so afraid of any form of nuance.

disney isn't my friend, they're a corporate monopoly that bastardized copyright laws for their own benefit, ruin the environment, and abuse their workers (... and many other things). this isn't a hypothetical for me - i grew up in florida. i also worked for the actual Walt Disney World; like, in the parks. i am keenly aware of the ways they hurt people, because they hurt me. i fully believe that part of the reason florida is so conservative is because it's been an "open secret" for years now that disney lobbies the government to keep minimum wage down, and i know they worked hard to keep the parks unmasked and open during the worst parts of Covid. they purposefully keep their employees in poverty. they are in part responsible for the way the floridian government works.

desantis is still, by a margin that is frankly daunting, way worse. the alternative here isn't just "republicans win", it's actual fascism.

in a case like this, where the alternative is to allow actual fascism into united states legislation - where, if desantis wins, there are huge and legal ramifications - it's tempting to minimize the harm disney is also doing, because... well, it's not fascism. but disney isn't the good guy, either, which means republicans are having a field day asking activists oh, so you think their treatment of their employees is okay?

we have been trained there is a right answer. you're right! you're in the good group, and you're winning at having an opinion.

except i have the Internet Prophecy that in 2-3 months, even left-wing people will be ripping apart activists for having "taken disney's side". aren't i an anti-capitalist? aren't i pro-union? aren't i one of the good ones? removed from context and nuance (that in this particular situation i am forced to side with disney, until an other option reveals itself), my act of being like "i hope they have goofy rip his throat out onstage, shaking his lifeless body like a dog toy" - how quickly does that seem like i actually do support disney?

and what about you! at home, reading this. are you experiencing the Thought Crime of... actually liking some of the things disney has made? your memories of days at the parks, or of good movies, or of your favorite show growing up. maybe you are also evil, if you ever enjoyed anything, ever, at all.

to some degree, the binary idealization/vilification of individual motive and meaning already exists in the desantis case. i have seen people saying not to go to the disney pride events because they're cash grabs (they are). i've seen people saying you have to go because they're a way to protest. there isn't a lot of internet understanding of nuance. instead it's just "good show of support" or "evil bootlicking."

this binary understanding is how you can become radicalized. when we fear nuance and disorder, we're allowing ourselves the safety of assuming that the world must exist in binary - good or bad, problematic or "not" problematic. and unfortunately, bigots want you to see the world in this binary ideal. they want you to get mad at me because "disney is taking a risk for our community but you won't sing their praises" and they want me to get mad at you for not respecting the legit personal trauma that disney forced me through.

in a grander scheme outside of disney: what happens is a horrific splintering within activist groups. we bicker with each other about minimal-harm minimal-impact ideologies, like which depiction of bisexuality is the most-true. we gratuitously analyze the personal lives of activists for any sign they might be "problematic". we get spooked because someone was in a dog collar at pride. we wring our hands about setting an empty shopping mall on fire. we tell each other what words we may identify ourselves by. we get fuckin steven universe disk horse when in reality it is a waste of our collective time.

the bigots want you to spend all your time focusing on how pristine and pretty you and your interests are. they want us at each other's throats instead of hand in hand. they want to say see? nothing is ever fucking good enough for these people.

and they want their followers to think in binary as well - a binary that's much easier to follow. see, in our spaces, we attack each other over "proper" behavior. but in bigoted groups? they attack outwards. they have someone they hate, and it is us. they hate you, specifically, and you are why they have problems - not the other people in their group. and that's a part of how they fucking keep winning.

some of the things that are beloved to you have a backbone in something terrible. the music industry is a wasteland. the publishing industry is a bastion of white supremacy. video games run off of unpaid labor and abuse.

the point of activism was always to bring to light that abuse and try to stop it from happening, not to condemn those who engage in the content that comes from those industries. "there is no ethical consumption under late capitalism" also applies to media. your childhood (and maybe current!) love of the little mermaid isn't something you should now flinch from, worried you'll be a "disney adult". wanting the music industry to change for the better does not require that you reject all popular music until that change occurs. you can acknowledge the harm something might cause - and celebrate the love that it has brought into your life.

we must detach an acknowledgment of nuance from a sense of shame and disgust. we must. punishing individual people for their harmless passions is not doing good work. encouraging more thoughtful, empathetic consumption does not mean people should feel ashamed of their basic human capacities and desires. it should never have even been about the individual when the corporation is so obviously the actual evil. this sense that we must live in shame and dread of our personal nuances - it just makes people bitter and hopeless. do you have any idea how scared i am to post this? to just acknowledge the idea of nuance? that i might like something nuanced, and engage in it joyfully? and, at the same time, that i'm brutally aware of the harm that they're doing?

"so what do i do?" ... well, often there isn't a right answer. i mean in this case, i hope mickey chops off ron's head and then does a little giggle. but truth be told, often our opinions on nuanced subjects will differ. you might be able to engage in things that i can't because the nuance doesn't sit right with me. i might think taylor swift is a great performer and a lot of fun, and you might be like "raquel, the jet fuel emissions". we are both correct; neither of us have any actual sway in this. and i think it's important to remember that - the actual scope of individual responsibility. like, i also love going to the parks. Thunder Mountain is so fun. you (just a person) are not responsible for the harm that Disney (the billion dollar corporation) caused me. i don't know. i think it's possible to both enjoy your memories and interrogate the current state of their employment policies.

there is no right way to interrogate or engage with nuance - i just hope you embrace it readily.

#does this make sense #to do be deleted probably yikes #(takes a swing at a wasp's nest) #like i think ppl have started to just be really quiet when they like something 'problematic' #and im like... u can be like - #girl tswift NEEDS to just TAKE A BUS . LIKE????????????????????? #while also being like. #''she's a lot of fun'' #if ur personal policy is that u don't support her for that reason that's great #but it's like. eating meat??? #like yeah some people won't bc the environment. but the fact i eat meat doesn't mean i hate the earth #like i can say that i think the meat industry is HORRIFIC and also downright cruel to its employees #but like. still enjoy a chicken nugget.... #there are people who choose otherwise. it's okay . we are people. i make like no money. u probably don't either #us fighting about whether or not it's Right To Eat The Chicken Tender just distracts from like. #actually turning your ire on the corporation #i hope it's clear what i'm saying here is like. when we fight each other for Purity Reasons #we are just doing the work of corporations . for free. like they WANT us to be doing this lol #it's the fucking DREAM of the upperclass that now ALL forms of responsibility fall on the individual

[ID: Two page comic in color of Vash and Wolfwood from Trigun Maximum. The first page has a black background and the upper half, behind the panels, is splattered with stylized red blood, scattered bullets, and lifeless hands. In the first panel, it focuses on Vash's boots, showing him stepping through the panel and into the bloody scene. The second panel shows his bloody footprints and the third panel shows his face, his down-turned eyes looking downwards. It's a neutral, vague expression with confliction. At the bottom of the page, the back of Wolfwood's head and shoulder is seen, blood dirtying the white color of his shirt and side of his face. Vash's hand reaches out to him from the right side of the page.

The second page shows the entire scene in full, half the page in light and the other in solid black. At the center, Vash leans down onto his knees as he wraps his arms around Wolfwood's shoulders into a hug. Wolfwood's back is turned away from the viewer, his left arm holds onto his bloodied punisher and his right hand sits on his lap. Light casts from the left side of the page, showing the bloodied surrounding, but the held up punisher casts a shadow on the both of them, shielding them from the light. END ID]

[kazbiter]

no I need to talk abt kaz beginning to spiral in the bathroom scene and being pulled back by inej's voice. a voice he describes as having once led him back from hell. her words meeting him where he is at, admitting that this is hard for her too and talking about the menagerie, and about tante heleene's use of affection as abuse. about how the first time nina hugs her, she flinched. about how sometimes even jesper touching her can take her back. and kaz listening and deciding that "if she could speak those words into the echo of this room, he could damn well try." the meet each other in the same place and take these steps as true equals. hesitant and apprehensive and hearts pounding out of their chests and longing and trying, they're both trying. oh oh ohhhhh. kanej ship of all time.

(hi I’m just gonna finish what I wanna say here cause the tags are getting excessive and people can only handle so many reblogs of moots gagging)

I won’t get burnt out! I’m perfectly content right now just really hyper fixated on pretender. Also he is still taller then Ozzy without heels by like half and inch. It still counts for something.

low-key wanna continue this comic but I have no idea how he’s canonically react to being kissed. Flustered yes but who isn’t? Anyway that’s it for my ramble I just finished making a quiz for a whole new fandom so. Yippieeee!

thanks spot for making Pretender and N! They’re the silliest AU’s I’ve come across. (And the most smooch able.)

Heya!! (And yeah, good call! I forgot that Asks exist lol-)

And nice! Glad ta hear you'll be good lol, I always just like to check in on folks ^^. And NICE! Tall Pretender from comic holds strong then! (Plus who knows, Pretender does shape-shift so he could totally just... change height to mess w/ ppl or tease hehe)

And Ooh!! I'd love to see where you could go with it! If ur looking for a potential reaction I might have a few? (Adding them... now: 1) Pretender kinda like, melts a lil. When he's emotional he kinda loses his shape and sinks into that purple mist, so I could totally see him just kinda getting flustered and literally deflating for a sec before popping back up with a stuttered little surprised response. 2) He's definitely Blushing, but doesn't like, react very obviously. More of a, "Well, that's a first!" Followed by a cheeky, "Usually I try to eat a human's face, not the other way around.... Not that I'm complaining!" Or something with a stupid lil grin and a wink, before he continues conversation. 3) "You sure know how to greet a new pal!" As he kinda squints at them and goes, "So, do I get a name to match the kiss?" Looking flustered for sure, but low-key smug as he jokes to cover his loss of composure. These would just depend on how competent u think he'd be in the face of a Random Wonderful Smooch hehe...) And those are just loose ideas? I'm actually not sure how he'd react to romance yet, if only because I haven't written him in that situation often enough yet hehe! U got him p spot on tho, so take any or none of these as guidance if you want! (And if not this was still a fun chance to write him some dialogue lol---)

And You're so welcome!!! Thank you for enjoying them so much!!! I pride myself on the Silly since my Serious sticks to writing, so I'm glad ya like em! (And wanna smooch em too! The rizz was built-in I suppose lol---)

#moot shenanigans #frfr Asking was so smart thank u for that- #AND do u have any particular nickname you'd like me to refer to u by? sometimes folks have one but I don't wanna just keep calling u “YOU”🫵 #hehe.... I don't like to assume #but if not that's cool too! just double-checking! #oh!!! and I wanna add this: #I'm so grateful that folks are enjoying my dopple boy because I made him w/o expecting to draw him too often. just an old au idea from year #back. but then Ood and u and Four and others looked at him and interacted and Idk it warms my lil soul lol!!! #o- and N is my persona/self-insert/au and I've had her for years so I'm honored u think they're silly 😌🫡 #that's all!!! sorry for the rambles!!! have a lovely day!!! #<- I say as though I'm not still gonna respond lmao-- #edit: ur also free to dm me if u ever wanna chat more! i swear (unlike Tender) I don't bite lol!

@yuexian: “an utterly ridiculous notion.”

for someone like gāo yīng, longevity was a blessing. but those who fall in love transform it into a double - edged blade — its tip forever pointed at their heart. he is painfully aware that wriothesley will pass on before him and that truth was more agonizing than his fall from mt. hulao. the ministry agent would rather be sliced asunder by 50 blades at once than losing the spark they shared.

“i will still love you even if your face is entirely covered in wrinkles. even when your bones ache and you are no longer able to walk in your own. _even when you can no longer see me.”

His light-hearted remark was not received as light-heartedly as he intended, it seems. His grin freezes in place, then slowly fades into a softer smile as the agent continues. What a nice notion, that this breathtaking man would still continue to love him even when he was old and broken. What a nice notion that he would be allowed to live that long.

Wriothesley does not expect to grow old. But he suspects if he dared to say those words now, Gao Ying would refuse to hear them.

"Mm, I shall quote you on that when I'm old and grey and losing my memory." A pause. "Though, if I'm losing my memory, chances are I won't remember you ever said that..."

He's trying to joke, as always. Trying to deflect from the fact he doesn't believe he'll make it past another twenty years at most.

"And darling, my bones already ache." He grins again, hands reaching for the agent's waist to draw him in close. His lips skim lightly along Gao Ying's jaw, down to his neck, where he allows himself an indulgent nuzzle. "Hmm, if I'm going to lose my sight one day... perhaps I should make the most of it now, no? Better commit every inch of you to my memory." Another grin. "Until I lose that, too, eh?"

@loiyaltie said: "I need to go..." Despite his words, Gepard's hands remain planted upon Sampo's waist, the space between them entirely insignificant as he leans in to chase another press of lips, eyelids fluttering closed as he does. It's not the first time he's said such a thing nor will it be the last but he does not have the willpower to slip from their shadows just yet. A moment more.

      if he had to describe this new routine of theirs, there'll be just a word to do it justice: delightful.

      it delights Sampo to know that the captain has this mischievous side to him. it's been quite a while since he started to put effort in unveiling what was under the surface of this strict, stiff man out of pure curiosity.

      Gepard Landau acted, moved and talked like a dutybound machine- and, to Sampo, that seemed so silly! how could someone live for something so strict, so terribly boring? one man can't simply have duty as a life-long occupation and never once stutter in his path- yearn for something else that isn't the ungrateful, fruitless trap their job traps them into.

      it was fun, to discover Gepard. Sampo earned for the thrill of seeing web-like cracks spreading under his form- testing the ice to see if it'll swallow him, if the water under it is as dark and gelid as he imagined.

      he has his answer when the third option to end their chase manifests in them detaching from civility and finding shelter in the dark backalleys to have a few moments for themselves. it's then that their lips meet over and over again, the thrill of being discovered crackling on their skin like electricity.

      “ oh? so soon? ” Sampo asks, but the incandescent flush over his face doesn't die down, his arms firmly refuse to leave their hold from around Gepard's neck. he knows that the captain has to return to his usual post... but, physically, he's a little more than reluctant to just let go.

      ( it's very silly to feel that little flutter in his chest whenever Gepard dips to kiss him again, unable to leave as if under a spell. the smug smile he has turns dopey and a little lopsided. )

      Gepard really should go. every second they spend here is a second they could be found out, with extreme consequences- see, the hard part is that it's terribly hard to simply stop. Gepard communicates a thing with his voice, but his body betrays him, still holding Sampo against him with an hint of desperation.

      he must really be conflicted, is he... hmm.

      lips curl into a mischievous, charming grin: the impish impulse is too strong to resist. not to tease would be a sin. seeing the poor man this flustered and struggling to go back to his duties is an irresistible opportunity to be just a little on the evil side.

      a curious finger twirls the hair at the base of Gepard's neck, followed by an hum reverberating between their joined chests. by standing on his tiptoes just a little ( and this is such a great discovery for... reasons, ) Sampo reaches up and places another butterfly kiss on Gepard's mouth, parting before it can become something more. it's a tease and a gracing touch, how Sampo brings the other even closer, if possible- how he's ghosting little kisses along his cheek, each one bringing him a little short of the objective.

      if he didn't knew that poor captain enjoyed these teases, he'd feel almost cruel. instead, he's just being a little tempting devil.

      “ gep, ” he breathes, lips pressing a soft kiss to the corner of his lips. “ not that i want to stop either, but... ”

      there's a little mischievous curl of his lips when he draws back, almost too innocently batting his lashes at the blond. “ didn't you said you really had to go...? ”

      ( he's sure Gepard will get back at him for making things a little harder for him. he can take it! in fact, he looks forward to it. almost sadistically so. )
