Hi ABL!

I was wondering if you had any posts about the use of sound effects in BL - the slide whistle for checking people out/boners simply gets me every time.

Perhaps it’s because I’ve watched so much American produced media and tuning out the same concept / soundscape since I’m so used to it.

I’m also always surprised that with this love of sound effects, there hasn’t been the classic echoing noise that’s heard across oceans when they open lube!

Anyway I love your blog! It’s been an incredible resource in appreciating BL in all its glory :)

Hi!

Why All those Sound Effects in BL RomComs?

I don't have a specific post. I mention it in some of my guidance and warning posts about Thai and Taiwanese stuff in particular, in general I am not wild about it... but I have grown accustomed to it. It can certainly be off putting to new watchers.

One of the worst offenders was Lovely Writer. I think I docked a whole point off that show because the sound was SO intrusive and jarring within the context of the drama.

These days the more comedy and the more pulp, the more likely and frequent the sound effects. Also Thailand, Taiwan, Vietnam, and Japan are the biggest offenders.

It's simply a comedic tradition. I think of it as similar to panto or commedia dell'arte. It's certainly true that a lot of ancient Greek and Roman plays likely had sound effects, as indeed would have Shakespeare. No to mention Kabuki theater. In fact, it's like throughout the history of stagecraft, sound effects were more common than not.

However, it's not particularly common or popular in American modern cinema out of Hollywood because it's associated with children's performances and clownishness. Like the voice overs, cartoon sound effects now are seen as somewhat clumsy and childish, not to say old fashioned.

There is an element of mistrusting the actors not to convey the correct emotion. Like the actors need audio help to do their jobs properly. But also like the audience can't be trusted to understand and so we feel "talked down to" by the sound effect. At least I do.

Yes I am aware this is a personal hang up.

Instead I think it's meant more as a communal nudge, like "we all together are responding in a certain way to this." Isn't it funny?

I also wonder if it's the influence of anime et al. (I'm really not an anime person partly because of the soundscapes. But then I don't like cartoons. Or Disney. Just not into kid's stuff. Never have been. Even when I was a kid.)

Here's someone else's perspective on Thailand's use of sound effects.

And Japan's.

I would say I'm accustomed to it now, but I still don't ever enjoy it. In fact, I often appreciate the "gritty" drama BLs like The Eighth Sense or I Told Sunset About You or Eternal Yesterday BECAUSE at least high angst means no sound effects.

Also less likely to sing.

All hail dark BL's good side? The silver lining.

For the record and to show my "history of BL creds" I'm gonna give a shout out to the SINGLE best use of a sound effect in a BL-adjacent piece of media....

THE BEST BL SOUND EFFECT EVER AWARD!

drum roll please

THE POP SOUND

Made by Pree pulling out of Ram's ykw just just after railing him.

Series: What The Duck

(can't remember if it's season 1 or 2, and I will never rewatch that cray cray)

Country: Thailand

I am aware I am being crass but this moment was honestly, truly, hilarious. It's a very sexy scene and then that sound. So funny.

I expect a comment from those few of you who remember this moment.

Your local jojo simp sliding in once more :3

Dilftaro X black!fem reader NSFW👀

6789998212 — Dilftaro X Black!fem reader

contains: mentions of sex, breeding kink, pregnancy kink, penetration (f! receive)

YKW??? ik i can always count on you for these requests like you always pull through and tbh you’re an OG for that. I love u man Also: props to anyone who guesses the title’s meaning 😁

You weren’t really a late night call typa person, and in all honesty, neither was Jotaro. But there was something about hearing his voice so raspy and spent over the receiver in the latter PM hours that made you contemplate your innate dislikes.

“I want you here with me. Right now.”

You could practically hear him pouting through the phone. It was amusing because you know he’d never be brave enough to show you this side of him in person.

Rolling onto your back, you laid an arm over your forehead as the other held your phone to your ears.

“But Jojo, you know I have work early in the morning. I can’t just jump out right now.”

Without a beat, the man replied.

“Then let me come over. Jolyne’s fast asleep and won’t even know I’ve popped out. I won’t be gone long enough for her to notice.”

With a faux gasp at his willingness to disregard his parental activities, you giggled into the receiver.

“Jotaro! That’s not a very responsible adult thing to say.”

“Doesn’t matter.” There was the muffled crackling sound of movement on Jotaro’s end. “Right now, I’m not thinking of being a responsible adult, I just know I want to do adult things with you.”

If only the man could see your current expression. It was rare enough to get much out of the man about how he wanted to spend his time with you let alone words like these.

Let it be anybody else and it would have been classified as mild but the fact that it was him?

“Adult things?” You teased. “Like what?”

“Don’t make me say it. I’d rather show you than talk about it.”

His tone was gruff, as usual, but there was an edge to it that you couldn’t decipher. With a hum, you decided to test that edge.

“If you don’t say it out loud then how will I know you’ll actually mean it when you come see me? I need confirmation that you’ll keep your end of the deal.”

“Woman, I—” He couldn’t even finished his words. All he could do was sigh and it amused you because you could even imagine just how done he looked.

But for a few seconds, Jotaro didn’t say much else. You knew the things that made him tick weren’t necessarily the same as your own and sometimes were unexplainable. However, it’s when you heard him warmly hum underneath his breath, that you knew he wasn’t mad.

Oh no, Jotaro was anything but.

“I really want to make love to you but seriously make love to you.” His voice was low but in a very smooth and easy way.

With an upwards hum at his daring words, you encouraged his behaviour.

“Oh? Like ‘put a baby inside of me’ make love or ‘let’s keep going until the AMs’ typa make love?”

The man made an unsure sound.

“Both? I dunno. I just wanna be deep in you — Definitely cum inside you. I haven’t done that in a while.” Hearing him work through his thoughts definitely burned a fiery passion within your heart.

“No, you haven’t.” You softly clarified as you snagged your bottom lip between your teeth, your arm now coming from covering your head and just over your stomach on the blanket.

“In fact…” There was another shuffling sound on the other end of the receiver but this time it was the thick flickering of pages. “It’s been 9 months and 27 days since the last time we fucked raw.”

“You’ve been keeping count?!”

“No, I’ve been journaling it. But yes, I’m aware of how long since it’s last been.” He reinforced.

With a shocked but amused face, you couldn’t help but laugh at the bizarre notion of Jotaro having these intricacies about you archived.

However, it was nice to know he was getting more comfortable with telling you these things. Jotaro could be quite reserved at times, and say things in a way that seemed strange to you, but over the years he’s opened up to you a lot more. His tendencies were so recognisable to you now and if anything, they only turned you on more.

“What’s so funny?” The man asked. He must have heard you snickering.

“Nothing, Jojo.” You ensured. “I’m just thinking that’s the same amount of time it’d take to have a baby so if I wasn’t on anything at the time—“

“I would love to impregnate you multiple times over.” He darkly noted.

Now it was you who was stuttering to find the right words. With your skin growing hot, you tried to ask for clarification.

“Y-you… What, you want more kids?” You muttered.

Jotaro made a thoughtful hum. It was then followed by an even more thoughtful statement.

“No, I don’t think I do. I’d definitely like to see your belly swell with child and your breast leak with milk, but I don’t know if I want the repercussions of a child.”

Surprised at his new found bravery but enticed by his imagined plans for you, you continued to tread icy waters. Bringing your hands underneath the blanket, you probed the man.

“So.” You sultry purred. “You’re saying that if I let you come over you’d knock me up?”

With a deep chuckle the man disagreed.

“No. I’m saying that if you let me round then i’d come to fuck your beautiful pussy, split it open with my cock and then pour my semen into your womb with the intention to bear you with offspring. I’d plug your cunt with my fingers so none of my seed spills but I’d do all of that again and again and again and again till you’re so utterly spent and so full of my come that you wouldn’t even know which ways up — the only thing you’d know is that you’d have to wait those nine months until you see the fruits of our labour.”

Speechless at his words, you could only inhale deep unsteady breaths.

The lewd activities Jotaro had spoken out loud for you was driving you crazy. Knowing he must have been thinking about doing this to you for so long — enough for him to keep count of the days — sparked an unbridged lust within your chest.

Speaking up first, Jotaro broke the silence. His voice didn’t have a hint of amusement in but you knew he felt smug knowing he’d already won you over.

“So? If I knock on your door in 30 minutes time, you’ll open up, yes?” He deadpanned.

With a rather exasperated sigh you had to momentarily close your eyes in order to regather yourself. You know you had work in the morning and you really should advise Jotaro to stay home but there was just no way you could deny him this.

“Don’t worry about knocking.” You breathed. “It’ll already be open.”

A satisfied hum sounded from the other side.

“Good. I’ll see you then.” Jotaro’s voice was a lot more softer before he ended the call.

Removing the phone from your ears, all you could do was stare up at the ceiling in shock, albeit a shock that continued to flame the warm feeling that was circulating around your body.

You know he said to give him half an hour but you also knew Jotaro would find a way to make it in much less.

Finally deciding you should get ready for him, you slipped yourself out of bed and made your way to put something a bit more revealing on.

With a coy smile, your lips turned up at the corners.

Maybe late night calls weren’t so bad after all.

help needed??? i've been in fandom for 5 years and i still haven't proper *proper* read a femslash fic???? i'm not counting side relationships and established relationships. shame on me, i know, but i'm here requesting for a guide because i thought i could start anywhere, and then realised i didn't know what i wanted - or who i wanted to watch fall in love. which is.... sort of absurd, like i'm a multishipper, and i have female faves too. anyway! would you be so kind as to rec your fav recs, fics, or metas, or fav ships so i could jump aboard one?

many thanks in advance 🤗

ykw i actually think i get what you mean anon. especially in HP fandom, where so many of the main characters are male and so many of the important relationships are het or between two male characters, you do have to make a special effort, go out of your way almost, to consider female characters. and then in that light femslash seems almost - contrived? forced? and not only is that not fun for a lot of people, there’s also the side of ‘am i just rehashing amatonormativity again???!’ you just can’t win, etc

all of which is to say, if you (more so anyone else reading this) don’t feel particularly drawn to femslash, especially in the HP fandom, that’s okay! maybe think about trying out more original media that centers female characters and relationships between them—i’ve recently loved both a league of their own (1940s american girls professional baseball league! so much canon wlw) and house of the dragon (dyke drama with dragons! canon is only het though) for this—but, meh, your fannish brain wants what it wants. ❤️

THAT was a really long way of saying: that’s why i think probably the first fic that really unlocked my femslash brain was this 200k longfic by @hawksquill, Luna Lovegood and the Forgotten Circle. it’s tagged luna/ginny but is really more of a luna centric AU, set parallel to the canon timeline. several canon events happen ‘in the background,’ like the chamber being opened in COS and sirius escaping pre POA, but luna is the main character, with a prophecy centered around her, and the story basically completely diverges from canon by the mid Hogwarts years. the main cast is almost all female characters: luna, her mother, ginny, mrs figg, mcgonagall, gwenog jones - everyone from bellatrix to lavender! really opened my eyes to the potential stories that could be told with the little scraps and tidbits of characterization given to these female characters.

have a little excerpt from chapter 17 that i still think about way too often:

“If you could have magic, like with a snap of your fingers, would you do it?” “You know, I’ve wondered about that for a long time. There will always be a part of me, a large part, that thinks I should say yes in an instant. But there are a lot of scammers trying to prey on us Squibs, and we have to be careful. And we ought to remember that fairy tales teach us to be careful what we wish for, particularly when we are offered something that seems too good to be true,” Mrs. Figg reflected as she added the valerian root and passed some to Luna. “So I suppose that if I were to get magic after all this time, I should want to work for it, so I could truly appreciate it, and be sure it was real. Which is why I keep pottering on at the Circle, and why you all think I’m such a fool.” “I don’t think you’re a fool,” Luna said quickly, but the lie tasted bitter on her tongue, and she was sure Mrs. Figg could sense it too.

(theres like a million and one things under the read more)

a couple of shorter femslash recs that hew slightly closer to canon:

Two Quaffles Pub by @thistlecatfics: postwar, cho and ginny meet at a bar and get to talking about what they have in common. harry. quidditch. michael corner. definitely not war trauma and definitely not unhealthy coping mechanisms!

tags: sometimes you get drunk and trauma dump on your ex's ex at the gay bar, and then make out in the bathroom. messy trauma recovery, Getting Together, not the healthiest of relationships but c'est la vie

“The war impacted me too. Just because I don’t spill my war stories to random girls in bars, doesn’t mean I don’t also have my shit.” “Tell me, then,” Ginny dared. She leaned across the table, staring at Cho. “I told you about Tom, the man in my body when I was eleven. What have you got?” Cho knew she shouldn't let this hot woman - no - hot mess of a woman bait her. Not when she was already feeling the alcohol. Not on a date. Well, this wasn’t a date, whatever she had implied earlier. She was not on a date with Harry’s Quidditch star ex who, apparently, had more trauma than anyone knew and a bit of a drinking problem to match.

hermione/ginny: it’s practically canon. they share so much gossip, they share a tent in GOF. here's a sweet untitled vignette series, Ginny is all warmth and strength and movement.

i’m not normally overly one for friends-to-lovers, but i really enjoyed these postwar parvender + werewolf lavender brown fics. again more established relationship than falling in love, but it’s not implausible to imagine given canon basis and there’s plenty more relationship development story to tell!

beautiful enough for the both of us by dirgewithoutmusic

like the careful undressing of love by comosum

Where Roses Bloom by monetstcroix

some marauders era: first thing that came to mind was alice/narcissa, actually! pre first war canon compliant is a fun space to play around in, because it’s circumscribed to an extent — you know you’re writing a doomed angsty romance, you know you’re reading a doomed angsty romance, you know where this story is headed but until then, until then, there is room to put your own stamp on things, your own interpretation of “how it might have gone”

Alice, Look at Me by Rollercoasterwords is probably the definitive marauderstok fic for the ship;

Devil's Snare by endocrine was written in 2015 and has several similar story beats/HCs!

Flying Lessons by Phantomato is a postwar andromeda/rolanda hooch i raved about recently that does a great job of pulling from canon and delving into some aspects of postwar trauma not often explored.

some other i never really thought about these!! ships i’m personally very fond of/ very intrigued by:

myrtle x mcgonagall: their student years at hogwarts overlapped! katie x cho, they were yearmates and both quidditch girls!

the (cho/)fleur/angelina/tonks “older than golden trio” girls. cho/fleur (delachang) and flonks are the biggest ships (and i have a couple more flonks recs later), but any of these dynamics would be fascinating, imo.

there is a limited amount of room to play around if you aren’t open to softening the lightning gen slytherins (in the way a lot of drarry fandom does, queer lightning gen cuddle puddle) (which i do get, i personally have to be in a specific mood for it) - but if you are, there’s a ton more fic! on the longer end too, because the character journeys are typically longer.

i say that and here's a <3k sporty feels cho/pansy, HOT AS FUCK

absolutely impeccable pansy/ginny double drabble by @nanneramma

delightful post war luna/pansy day at the beach

if the slytherin x gryffindor dynamic does grab you and you’re okay with that level of ‘canon what canon?’ - there are a number of longer ginny/pansy, pansy/hermione, millicent/hermione, etc. that are as well crafted, plotted, worldbuilt, etc, as any drarry fic of that length - i’m particularly thinking of the largely 25-50k range written for WLWBB!

some of hp femslash’s best kept secrets, imo: the incredible inventiveness of some of the rarepair fic - particularly those written around maybe the early-mid 2010s, though there are some in every year. examples:

Independent Love Song by Writcraft: Millicent Bulstrode is a tailor and Ginny is losing her mind over a woman in a tweed blazer and burgundy brogues.

A swagger, a twinkle, and a fine arse on a broom by Woldy: Tonks lets her eyes linger on Hooch's spiky grey hair, her shining leather boots, and thinks If that woman's straight, then I'm a monkey's uncle.

Stylemagic by Woldy (luna/tonks): Who would have thought that Charing Cross Road was style central?

City Life by holyfant (tonks/ginny): They travel, find each other and themselves.

& since you mentioned meta, i have to shout out holyfant's essay for @femslashrevolution: Towards A Darker Femslash

I wanted to continue to write smaller pairings and explore female characters, too. And I did, but the point remains that when I look at my story stats now, it’s clear that my f/f stories are shorter in word count and are less varied in their plot and execution than my m/m stories. All this to show that I am 100% part of what I am about to describe: not a problem, per se, but an observation that I think is useful to be aware of and think about. The fact is that femslash, across fandoms, remains a niche category, and that while there are great amounts of people who read and write almost exclusively m/m this is barely ever the case for f/f.

i also really liked this other one On the personal as normal; on the normal as political:

I think one thing that stands out, from a majority of my interactions on this issue through the years, is the perception that the act of writing relationships among women is inherently political, in a way that the act of writing about relationships among men is not. The $64,000 question: do I agree with this? Are electrons particles, or waves?

going to close this off with one of my self indulgently favorite femslash, both ship and writer: i am in love with the way montparnasse writes second war fleur/tonks and how reminiscent it is of first war wolfstar, the tension of attraction set against the tension of the war. vibe quote included, because either you like her style or it’s not your taste - but if you do, there’s nothing quite like it!!

Six Penny, Seven Stone: Timing is everything. Tonks's was always just a little bit off-kilter.

Fleur accompanied her to exclusive pureblood parties that summer, posing as a personal assistant or dear live-in friend to Tonks’s erectile dysfunction potion heiress while they listened to one of the Yaxleys moan about the dilution of sanctified old blood and got handsy over hors d’oeuvres. Still Fleur seemed disappointingly unaffected by her spectacular breasts in a vicious push-up bra or the Dietrich-esque raised eyebrow/lit cigarette combo: she made advances and spurned Tonks’s and eventually after reporting to the Powers That Be after nights out ruffling robes in enemy territory they ended up at a neon-sleazy diner or got takeout and ate it at one of their flats—Tonks in Southwark, Fleur in Camden—until they fell asleep at opposite ends of the couch after sharing a joint or chamomile tea and watching X-Files and EastEnders reruns. In theory, they kept to their own sides as well as they could, but in practice, their limbs did often wander.

Obscure Topography: Sometimes, Tonks realizes, coming at each other from awkward angles makes you stick, elbows and all.

Sometimes, when she’s either very drunk or feeling particularly soppy, she feels like she can slow time itself down to a sluggish, tipsy trickle, where nothing else matters but her own beating heart and the turn of the world, or—here, now—Fleur’s skin and hips beneath her skin and hips, moving to a rhythm of their own, no time like what your body keeps in its hollows and curves. The brush of a thigh takes hours; the glide of fingers riding over ribs, and she loses track of the day. War and worry and shattered nerves are nothing next to this, meaningless without the strange, humorous patchwork of two hearts beating out of tune, where the radius of the whole world condenses down to the bed and they’re the only women alive in London for a while.

OKAY NO VERY LAST ONE

Hey Ducky, I’m not trying to come across as rude, but is it true that you called CSA survivor a Pedo knowing that their a CSA survivor??? It doesn’t seem like something you’d do, but you can never be to sure

Well I’ll be quite honest, I don’t remember what I said.

HOWEVER: this is the first I’ve heard of them being a CSA survivor. I wholeheartedly did not know that, and there was no way for me to know because they don’t make it known on their blog. (Or if they did, I didn’t see it) If they had posted anything about it, I had already blocked them, so I would not have been the wiser.

SA is not anything to poke fun at or insult others for. That’s not their fault, they can’t control what others do to them. So no, I’ll NEVER use their CSA survival to insult them. That is the shittiest thing a person can do. While I don’t know the horrors of being A’d, I’ve been SH’d before, and I still haven’t recovered from it.

Whether or not I called them a p!do: I genuinely do not remember doing it, but im sure they’ll have a screenshot of it. The whole situation escalated and I didn’t quite understand where they were coming from. Our first argument was when I was still underage, so I’m sure I did.

I was mad because I was a minor in the tickling community and I don’t have any sexual desires from it. So this person saying “no, tickling is a kink, minors shouldn’t be in the community” pissed me off because I didn’t enjoy it in a sexual way.

Here’s what I did say: “because a person likes to spank it to little kids, I have to censor my SFW blog because it might “enable” them.” And ykw? I could’ve worded that better. So there’s a discrepancy on my end. I take responsibility for that poorly-worded statement, entirely.

What I SHOULD have said: “because a person likes to spank it to tickle art, I have to censor my SFW blog of any underage characters because it might “enable” them.”

That’s what I’m taking away from all of their posts. They want to protect the minors, which is a very great thing to do. I agree, minors do not belong in kink. But telling SFW blogs that they can’t post anything with minors in it because it might “enable” an NSFW blog is bonkers.

This is my current understanding of the main argument:

This person has a tickling kink.

Cool

Let them

Not my cup of tea because I’m sex-repulsed.

I don’t see tickling as a kink, nor is it exclusively a kink in its entirety.

This person is arguing that tickling IS a kink in itself.

They are arguing that minors should be talking to any tickle blogs because “tickling is a kink”

Yes, it is a kink. But it isn’t EXCLUSIVELY a kink.

It’s the same thing as saying handcuffs are a kink because some people are into them, so cops shouldn’t use handcuffs on minors. Or young chefs can’t prepare food with knives because certain adults see these objects in a sexual way.

For others, like myself, it’s literally just a thing. For some, a coping mechanism. Others, a fun game.

This person. And others, are saying that since tickling “is a kink” that SFW blogs should not have minor followers, allow minors to follow them, should not draw minors or write about minors in tickling situations.

I agree to an extent. I think kink blogs should not allow minors (which they do a good job of. They set their boundaries and it’s up to others to respect them). However, since tickling is literally just a thing, and isn’t seen as a sexual thing by every person in the community, there’s nothing wrong with a minor interacting with a SFW blog.

Drawing and writing about minors in tickling situations needs to be done carefully. It shouldn’t be done in an NSFW way whatsoever. Fictional or not, these are still kids. There are people in this community that do just that, and that might be the example that this user is seeing.

TL;DR: Tickling can be a kink, but it isn’t exclusively one. It is up to each individual blog to decide what their stance on it is, and whether or not they let minors interact with them.

If people wanna witch hunt me for saying that, let them. I won’t change my mind.

You give such good Kenstewy recs but I was wondering - what would the opposite be, not in the sense of you *don't* recommend the fic, but more in the sense of, what's something if it pops up in a Kenstewy fic that you just *hate* and feel doesn't fit or work?

Thank you for your question and for giving me an opportunity to unpack my love of kenstewy fics. I love reading ks fics and appreciate any chance to gush about fics I’ve enjoyed reading with others. I’ve probably read 90% of the 350 kenstewy fics currently in existence as I write this response.

First, I should also say the reason I started reading fics after season 3 ended was because I remembered Arian Moayed bringing it up in an interview. I was originally looking for Roman and Mencken because…well we all saw 3.06. Reading the YKW fic led me to reading the companion KenStewy fic and I never looked back.

Initially I read canon, pre-canon, canon compliant because some of the premises seemed so out of left field but I was obsessed and there was no succession to fill the 2022 void so kept reading others fics like au or divergent from story beat. What I realized is that what I like is the dynamic and Stewy and Ken loving each other, being friends for a long time or forming deep connections, bickering because their personalities are different, and Stewy hating Logan.

The answer to your questions is the same reason I won’t ever be at 100%. I won’t read a fic if Kendall dies in it. I love Kendall and want him to live always. I will not read ks with incest tag. I feel the same about sexual assault. My charitable and empathetic reading is I know that some writers are writing from personal experience or are processing through stuff but for those subject matters I would’t read them on ao3.

I think there have been a few fics that had kenstewy being particularly mean or cruel to each other that just didn’t ring true to their dynamic to me or something else was off. I’m sure there have been some fics where something happened and I thought to myself ‘hell no’ but nothing stands out; I accept people using creative license. I have side-eyed a few sex scenes for being too long or not based on “realistic sex” but that’s just me.

Lastly, I wrote two fics. They’re ok/mid, but I say this to say my respect and awe for fic writers is immense and my feeble attempt makes me even more interested in shouting out writers. I would literally bow down to the writer of the Scandinavian Defense. I’m not sure when I’ll love another show or be into a ship enough to read fics about them but it’s been fun.

Wow, this response was long and meadering…

I’ll end by shouting out the two recent fics that I’m really loving:

Okay ykw I’m making a post. Very sorry about this because a) the adhdo5 blog is where I sit on the porch and shoot the shit and you shouldn’t come to me for news and b) I am very tired right now and can’t think very well so you’ll have to bear with me. I am NOT editing this shit so if it has typos or I sound incoherent very sorry again maybe you can like decipher it with your comrades or w/e

Long post; tl;dr at bottom

So I’ve seen posts going around about the Ohio train derailment. This is good and fine in itself. This is a serious issue that should be discussed and absolutely an environmental disaster, BUT there r some serious framing issues going on and while there’s other posts that discuss this better than I can or am interested in doing, I’d like to address one specific thing as kind of a microcosm/example

So there’s a version of the post going around where a commenter links some articles and pulls relevant quotes from them. Most seriously they pull this quote

While vinyl chloride itself is a carcinogen, the burning of the chemical, which releases hydrogen chloride and phosgene, can be immediately lethal. Phosgene, a highly toxic, colorless gas with a strong odor, was notoriously used as a weapon during World War I.

Now, that’s a scary fucking quote. That shit is frightening and it is a true assessment of the risk of vinyl chloride leaks. Put it in context of the earlier post, which is going on about a supposed media blackout and claims of mass death of pets etc., and claims that police blew up the tanks, and it evokes a truly terrifying image of these tanks being detonated carelessly and possibly leading to deaths.

But try on for size the literal first sentence of this article: (emphasis added)

The toxins that burned in the wreckage of the train derailment in Ohio had the potential to be deadly if officials did not order evacuations in the region, experts told ABC News.

And from an article from CNN: (emphasis added)

The wreckage burned for days, threatening a widespread, deadly explosion before crews Monday managed controlled detonations [...]

Workers used small charges to blow a tiny hole in five rail cars carrying vinyl chloride. The hazardous substance spilled into a trench, where it was burned away. [...]

Analysts have been conducting air monitoring and sampling over the last 24 hours in the East Palestine area, James Justice, a representative of the United States Environmental Protection Agency said Wednesday. "All of the readings we've been recording in the community have been at normal concentrations, normal backgrounds, which you find in almost any community," he said, and that's "what led to the fire chief lifting the evacuations today."

And a few paragraphs down in the very article the first quote is from:

A release from a vinyl chloride tank car creates a dangerous situation. The chemical, which is a gas at ambient temperature, is shipped in pressurized tank cars. “If you have a release, it vaporizes and it’s extremely flammable,” Kreuz says.

This is a completely different picture. Don’t get me wrong -- shit is still awful. It’s a dangerous situation that DID kill some beasts this IS a bad thing this IS a policy failure that it happened

But the tanks were detonated by professionals so that the fumes would be concentrated in one area that they could give evac orders for, and those evac orders have since been lifted because said controlled burn went off as planned. If they’d let it escape or explode by itself, the phosphene etc would likely still have been released, but in a way that would be way harder to Give Evac Orders For

Officials etc can still suck and be bad. It’s not like this is over or a solved issue. But this was not the cops. This was the EPA. This was people whose job is to deal with environmental catastrophes (which AGAIN this WAS). There are people who are trying to get third party tests done! Fair enough! But this is NOT something that people are left completely alone with

So what IS an issue here specifically? Where do we point scrutiny?

This is my biggest issue with that first quote pull; the text block immediately after it is possibly the most widely relevant thing in the article. Here’s a slightly longer quote: (emphasis added)

The accident raises questions about safe rail transportation of vinyl chloride, a chemical that is predominantly converted to polyvinyl chloride on the site where it is produced. It also shines a light on general rail safety—the accident was the third freight train derailment in Ohio since last October.

I mean, in hindsight it’s clear -- this was a rail accident. But losing oneself in panic about the chemical spill itself being not dealt with or dealt with worse can cause one to lose focus. I know I certainly did until I looked .2mm further into the situation and found that paragraph, and then the focus Did become clear: remember the rail strikes? Hey, how are those going?

It’s extremely easy to get lost in panic and conspiracy-adjacent thought, especially because officials are extremely frequently bad at their jobs, because cops DO do stupid shit like this, because these are extant problems. But it’s also easy to get paralyzed by a nebulous fear of bad actors in the government and lose sight of the immediate issue that these chemical spills happen in general, that they happen because of something wrong with our rail system, etc.

This probably isn’t the One Secret Key to this, either, and there’s probably uglier nuances to the response, but it’s important to keep an eye out for this propensity in ourselves for panic, for catastrophizing, and to think about what and whom that benefits, to get a clearer view to see how one can genuinely help and if this is a thing to which you can afford to lend your concern, what you can do about it yourself. Be careful. Be conscientious about what you allow to take space in your brain and how much good it does you and the world really. Watch out for these kinds of nasty rhetorical traps, these kinds of framing subtleties that can vastly color how you see a situation

Now I am NOT trying to say that OP or commenter did that on purpose or out of malice. I think it’s very likely that they themselves panicked to some degree, quoted and reported on what caught their eye, etc.. I’m ALSO absolutely not saying that they or people who saw these quotes are stupid or gullible. I am Thirdly not trying to say at all I’m an authority on this part of the situation. My intent with this and what I hope anyone who read this far takes away from this is that this was, intentionally or more likely not, there’s been a rhetorical issue in how people are discussing this situation, and it’s one that can vastly increase distress and decrease efficacy of diagnosing the problem for people who ARE involved

Anyway

TL;DR (because god do I talk so much it’s the ADHD)

train carrying some very toxic shit derailed in Ohio

posts going around rn where OP talks about the tanks being exploded in a way that misleads people about the operation

some additions feature a commenter pulling a very frightening quote about those fumes

the truth is that it was a controlled burn done by professionals so the toxic shit wouldn’t catch fire and release horrible fumes in random residential areas

it was under evac order

it was successful and the evac order was since lifted

this is really bad but catastrophizing helps no one

REHAUL THE US RAIL SYSTEM NOW

support rail workers and if you have some dollars to spare maybe go see if anyone affected by the evacuations has a Ko-fi

#anyone wanting 2 talk 2 me about this uhhhhhhh probably don't I have no interest in getting involved in #[checks notes] Ohio explosion discourse #everything I had of value to say I just said (and then some) if you want more information read the links and then do proper research yourse #lf #I have a god damn headache #good fucking night.

okay so my best friend (#1) has a crush on this guy who’s in a year above us and Ykw it’s acceptable, she’s not acting on it no complaints there because they’re going their own pace. Completely unrelated to the main plot of this it’s just nice

NOW

Best friend #2 has a crush. He has a crush on the girl whom his (our) former best friend (J) dated. Now the girl is really sweet, I love her even tho I didn’t like her when she was dating J. Now, she says she doesn’t want a relationship rn, she’s not mentally ready for it, she’s really set on them being friends and nothing more. But best friend #2 keeps trying to push it and has this thinking that she will in fact say yes if he asks her out and stuff, gets jealous when she talks to guys (he got jealous when she talked to her ex. And she did it for his closure she didn’t even care about him) and the thing is, they aren’t even together. But he keeps trying to kinda force it when me and best friend #1 keep telling him she just wants to be friends

now, remember J? He’s been telling people that best friend #2 and the girl he has a crush on aren’t gonna work out and he wanted to prove him wrong because he thought that they were gonna be tgt. He was planning on doing romantic gestures and stuff that I advised him against because yk she doesn’t want a relationship.

I was honest with him last night and I legit told him that if he asked her out, she’d stay friends. And it was like a long long thread of me telling him to like not and yk respect her boundaries and I told him he can control how he acts/deals with his feelings but he can’t control his actual feelings. And he understood for a while then said he was gonna give her a note (he was planning to give her a locket, A HEART ONE, with a note) and is gonna give it to her TODAY. I just let it be at this point.

that’s not even all. Remember when I said she talked to her ex? Apparently, someone’s been spreading rumors about her and twisting what she said so much and exaggerated it so much.

Anyways we’ve been getting advice from our vball coach/former arts and computer teacher and our math teacher so

I’m sorry for the late reply, I’ve been baking since I got home yesterday 😭😭😭

Wow that’s a lot to take in

So basically, no one is respecting this girl’s boundaries and spreading stuff about her?

I would be done at that point, if no one would leave well enough alone, honestly

♱ Character Inspiration ♱

thank you for the tag @the-mostdiabolik-of-lovers <3 i’m sorry i’ve been neglecting my oc for so long n keeping questions in my ask box all dusty w spiderwebs on em i swear i don’t mean to :( i didn’t lose interest at all (lowkey on diabolik lovers but neverrrr violet). occasionally i get asked abt her on my main acc @vampieress & people messaging me about her n tagging me in things n it makes me so happy seeing you guys keep her alive even though she’s fairly new with nothing big abt her just yet, thank you so much for the support, it’s not going unnoticed i promise! i’m back this time fr

✧ʚ .·:*¨༺♡༻¨*:·. ɞ✧

♱. raven madison

without her i wouldn’t even have made violet in the first place, she was the start for everything, before i read the book i already had my oc planned and made but i was very unhappy with it and hated talking about it bc i’m such a perfectionist. i literally wouldn’t let it even see the light of day until i stumbled upon raven madison on pinterest and dumped everything i ever wrote for “violet” in the garbage and started fresh, raven was the embodiment of everything i ever wanted in my oc (besides a couple more things), violet’s name was actually gonna be raven (or celestia lol) from how huge her impact on me was, i see raven as a younger version of violet

♱. jennifer check

one thing i wanted violet to embody is the maneating succubus bisexual jennifer check, her confidence her humor the way she manipulates to get what she wants, everything jennifer is i added it to violet’s vampire form (and some on her human form), i wanted her to be more succubus-like

♱. ayato sakamaki

i would love to say that she’s a female version of ayato but since he’s her love interest i thought that would be a little too weird and obvious, a little bit of ayato’s personality has been added to vivi because i wanted him to feel like he’s speaking to a mirror in a way

♱. for fashion : the craft, jane margolis, taylor momsen

they were a big part for vile’s fashion sense (except hers is way slutty lol) the craft’s school uniforms were a big inspiration to vile’s ryoutei uniform. jane was a big part in deciding violet’s casual wear since hers is more comfy, simple and really fucking cute i couldn’t not make violet wear that, and ofc taylor motherfucking momsen, her wearing lingerie dresses and fishnets did something to my brain that made me think “why the fuck is lingerie made only for the male gaze” when it’s too fucking cute to let it go to waste like that, why doesn’t anybody wear lingerie on a day to day basis with jeans or skirts then i realized how judge-y society is and thought ykw lemme add that to violet’s fashion board instead

♱. & of course ME

didn’t i say violet is kind of a self insert? she’s like an alter ego to me, she’s everything i ever wanted to be, everytime i pick an outfit or get put in a tough situation i think “what would violet do/wear” and act by that, i wanted to separate me and my oc’s apart because i don’t wanna be cliche n do a self insert but it’s really hard writing something i don’t relate to & plus writing her was WAY more fun than writing any oc. if anybody deserves credit for violet it’s ME

there are many things i picked up on and added to violet throughout the years, i couldn’t name them all but usually i get them from fantasy & horror media, anything that’s related to vampires (books, films, video games etc), succubus’s, women in history, people i’ve met and admired, celebrities like pamela anderson or tess taylor, paris hilton, nicole richie & lindsay lohan, anything y2k mcbling or emo scene, i made it my mission to make violet stuck in the 2000s forever

#♱. vile info #diabolik lovers #ayato sakamaki #taylor momsen #pamela anderson #y2k mcbling #diabolik lovers oc

well *i* read it. so!!! 📥 🧠 🖊

my friend :)

📥 What is your fave fic to receive comments/messages on?

the only fic i get comments on these days is my hellcheer wip but.........i mean.......my silly little narry......she's still an icon

🧠 What’s an idea you have that you can’t quite call a WIP yet?

my sydrichie :( like ultimately i don't think i can really write them but.........they live in my heart

🖊 Post a snippet from a current WIP.

ykw i'm gonna use this opportunity to gauge interest on my canon au............

“I—I wanted to give you something, though,” Chrissy says, unhooking one of the straps of her backpack to dig through the front pocket. “To—to replace it, but also, because…because you’re always giving me stuff, and I’ve never given you anything.” “Ah, the diamonds you’ve been promising me,” Eddie teases, and the smile that plays on his lips uncoils the tension that’s been wrapped around her spine since Jason’s speech. “Better late than never, right?” “Right,” Chrissy says through a giggle, and she hands the bundle of cloth that she’s tied up in a neat little ribbon. “What is this?” Eddie asks, turning the little bundle in his hands. “They’re handkerchiefs,” Chrissy informs him, taking them from his hands to show him. “See? I embroidered your initials here – E.M. – and these are—” “Bats,” Eddie finishes for her, taking the cloth from her hands. Chrissy watches as he runs his thumb over the embroidered design. “They’re bats.” “I didn’t want them to look too girly,” Chrissy explains, wringing her hands nervously. “But—I’m kind of used to embroidering flowers, so—” “Chrissy, I—” Eddie’s hand comes up to take a hold of her wrist. Chrissy feels like the contact is burning a brand on her skin. She looks up at him, and she feels her throat dry up at the look in his eyes. “Thank you.” “They’re not—silly?” “They’re a little silly,” Eddie says, and the full-on grin she loves so much overtakes his face. “But you know I’m a big fan of silly.”

nominative determinism is an extremely funny concept that i will now choose to believe in. like andrew hussie (creator of homestuck) is a kookmin (ship btwn two members of bts) truther. oomf just said it on the tl & i was like, ykw? i’m going with it. and then oomf shared receipts & i chuckle like a little demon because it is just so silly. like u created a biblical length tome & now ur scurrying arnd in the dirt like the rest of us & people had a melt over the gcf in tokyo (seminal kookmin artefact)

oh yeah the nominative determinism thing. this should be a separate post but boo. so i have a dutch friend who tells me about dutch things. dutch told me about farmers with tractors blockading the highways because the government wanted to phase out meat production subsidies and switch to more environmentally sustainable agriculture. dutch told me about the bizarre education system that feels more like dante’s inferno—six different levels and if you’re not in lock-step with dutchness, you do get penalised. do not ask me to repeat it because i do not know how to write the different levels and i will get sad for refugee families who don’t know how to cow teachers into letting their kids be in a higher academic level. i am not dutch and therefore not familiar with spellings. dutch has told me things about the political system that look very charming to me from my perch. the party with the nazi joke chatroom leak was rank though. the dutch government has made some nice anti-dog mill laws. if it is not clear that i am not dutch then i am opaque.

all of this to say, i was aware of the netherlands before f1 (march 2023). oh!!!! i also know the dutch word for like, sex things & i had a riot of a time repeating them a lot. i really get why people learn those terms first when acquiring a new language via osmosis! me too!! except they kept their mouth scrupulously clean so now i can’t even swear outside of, gestures, this language.

okay nominative determinism. it’s this thing where your name suits you to, like, a freakish degree in a major aspect of your life. max’s name is so perfect for him. he is max. to the nth degree. maximilian. maxy max. he’s pushing maximum. he’s been flat out from day one.

now let’s go dutch. basically verstappen (ver-shtah-pHEn) (dutch emphasized the double p & i’ve done a poor approximation of the sound. i am so charmed by it. dutch also says monaco askew but i cannot pin it down. i would probably be less charmed had i been, in some way or another, been colonised by the dutch but here we are.)

i saw a girl who had impeccable pink pantheress vibes. i do need to tell her next when i see her. this isn’t related. neither is the next thing i’m going to say: i really like the moon. but it is not very tangible through my phone camera so i have to look above every night and i miss when i was younger and it followed me through the window as we went home. i can’t remember when the small details came and went until it was something alien altogether but the moon still remained. i like the moon even if my horoscope makes me out to be someone fascinated with the taboo and terrible. i am, but in a distant fashion. not that i think i’m better for the distance or not in the midst of it but in the way of this isn’t my thing but i do think it is interesting and while i thoroughly enjoy learning about it, i do not think i’d enjoy participating in it. whatever the taboo is. there are taboos i’d balk at, certainly.

verstappen essentially means misstep in dutch and i took ages to get here but i do think jos should be banned from the paddock ❤️ & honestly verstappen suits max very well but also kumpen would’ve been textually grittier & added more whimsy to his first impression. more spring to the consonants. but jos exemplifies the missteps of the surname handed down to him by his forefathers. i hope he calcifies and becomes less than rot; that jos.

#mv33 #f1 #nim.txt #nim explaining nominative determinism means max’s name suits him very well #verstappen means misstep in dutch #i spend a lot of time talking abt dutch. dutch finds it very funny that i got into f1 but had to smoke a blunt to listen to me talk about #f1 but dutch had to take a break because she has heart problems and her lungs were getting a bit stuffed up -> delusions of getting buff #oh her health problems were because she was smoking too much weed! now she’s going to the gym & being a gymbro now.

I DIDNT SEE THE OC ASK POST ORZ

for ezekial and luther 1,2,28 .... and ykw fuck it 11

Do they have any motifs?

Luther has 2 kinda. One was a little intentional the other just kinda came as a bonus. His main one is like, angelic imagery. That’s mostly from one of the first scenes of the story I came up with, where Ezekial is first brought to see Luther, who’s standing above him with light shining from behind him, and that with his hair kind of creates a halo kind of look and Ezekial remarks to himself that he looks like an angel. And yk, that whole like, white/light blue being angelic/pure idea with his color palette also kinda reflects that, which is both reflective and subversive to his character. Reflective in that it shows how he likes to be extremely clean and put together, but subverts how he’s involved with very dark things. His other motif only just occurred to me, that being space/moons. His planet and moon earrings weren’t really meant to be anything more than a cool design choice, but I realized that a lot of scenes I’ve pictured where he’s more vulnerable and open are at night and/or under the moonlight, so that motif has become a bit important to his character. You could also definitely draw some sun and moon imagery with him and Ezekial from that.

Ezekial doesn’t really have concrete motifs in the same way Luther does. There’s a couple reoccurring ideas that surround him, like scarring, loneliness, and loyalty, but I haven’t really given him strong specific motifs. I guess the main one that you could argue for that I’ve been thinking about lately is kind of like, wearing over time. That applies to the story and their dynamic at large, but specifically with Ezekial, there’s a lot of focus with him having to accept that things are not the same as they once were, as well as visually, his design changes and wears with time, both with him getting more and more scars and with his clothes gradually becoming more scuffed and dirty with the more experience he has. This also juxtaposes Luther, whose design is very clean and sharp and put together.

Describe their voice. Do they have a voice claim?

I always struggle finding voice claims for my characters bc I have such a specific vision in my head that nothing feels completely right for them, but I’ll try to get as close as I can.

For Ezekial, my first thought was Aoba from the beastars dub (I think. I was specifically thinking of the “hey, legoshi already knows her name!” line and I’m pretty sure that’s aoba but idk). Looking up a couple voices, I think also a bit of Ash from fantastic mr fox, though very slightly lower for both of those. Also also a smiiiidge of mk from lmk. Just a bit. The idea for him is to have a voice that’s very smooth and nice, pretty average tbh, and usually very bright but occasionally able to slip into a darker tone. Idk though, I feel like he’s really hard to place and I don’t even know if I really like any of these all that much for him, but it’s the best I got 😭

Luther’s voice I imagine closer to the lower end but also not particularly deep, very soft and level, kind of that back of the throat kind of sound. It’s really dumb but specifically I thought of that one clip that’s like “SHUT UP. SHUT UP. IM GONNA KILL THE NEXT PERSON I SEE I SWEAR TO GOD” but JUST for him yelling. The line I was imagining him saying in that tone was “Don’t you get it!?” and it works oddly well. Otherwise, it’s kinda like a mix between lilac cookie’s eng voice and sal fisher. Another one I found specifically looking at voice claim compilations that’s random as fuck is Wesley Gibson from wanted??? no idea who that is or what that’s about but I think his voice fits really really well for Luther.

Are they a dog or a cat person?

Ezekial likes both and he wouldn’t be able to choose, though probably leans a little more to dogs.

Luther you’d think would be more of a cat person, given his everything, but he actually prefers dogs because they’re easier to train and more obedient. He doesn’t dislike cats though.

Have they ever fallen in love and with whom?

I mean, there is a LOT of longing between these two, especially on Ezekial’s end. He’s been in love Luther since they were really young but I think he didn’t really realize that for a long time. At some point it kinda registered for him but even then I don’t think he ever really said it out loud to himself. It was never really some big revelation or anything, just kind of putting a word to a feeling that’s always been there.

And I’m not gonna lie and say the feeling isn’t reciprocated, but that’s something Luther hasn’t thought about in years and still hasn’t yet to really understand himself. The mix of emotional suppression and catholic guilt made a cocktail of self denial and inability to really accept that thought when he was younger, and in the present it’s far worse and far more repressed, and he has a long way to go before anything begins to change with that.

It’s actually interesting because this is also a scene I thought of pretty recently. After their reunion, once the tension has settled past the initial Luther-being-willing-to-kick-Ezekial-across-the-floor-without-a-second-glance phase, one of the conversations they end up having is Ezekial asking Luther if he’s dated anyone since he last saw him, to which Luther respond “I don’t think you could really call it that.” He asks the same question back at Ezekial and Ezekial responds “Yeah, I don’t think those really count either.” And that surprises Luther and he give a little “Huh.” And Ezekial asks what that’s about but Luther just says it’s none of his concern (really he’s surprised because Ezekial’s always kinda been a romantic, and he’s dated a couple people before when they were younger. “And I mean, Ezekial’s an attractive guy, and he would probably be a good partner, how has he not had any good relationships since high school?” (<- clueless))

#oc #they are so stupid #falls on the floor and dies #yeah man seeing ur old best friend for the first time in years and your first thought being how angelic he looks is totally norm n not gay #ezekial and luther

okay ykw i dont wanna go on this date. i’m enjoying being single and yes i’m going to go out for pizza with him but i don’t think he’s The Guy. i’m not ashamed in saying that i am not very physically attracted to him because ykw my entire life as a woman i’ve been conditioned to think that i need to settle with whatever comes my way and i don’t. and i was taught that the way i feel now is shallow and it’s not. so i will go have my pizza and come right back to giggling about bob stinson and tell him that i’m not ready/interested. plus he’s kinda moving a little fast and i aint cool w it

JES I HAVE TO SAY HOW MUCH I LOVE YOUR STORY “CRUEL INTENTIONS” it was so creative, original, so thrilling!! I was never really a fan of suguru before, but writing him as a devoted English professor willing to do anything for his student? you have struck a chord 😩💓

If you ever decide to elaborate on the story or even write something for suguru, I’d love to see it or be tagged in whatever you write. It’s too good.

Again i really appreciate your story!! It’s become one of my all-time favs🥰

omg thank you andra i appreciate your love !! 💛 it’s crazy to me that everyone is deadass simping for prof geto and i totally understand 😩 however i was more focused on trying to write the toxicity and manipulation… and lots of ppl still loved this fic ! sadly i cant understand the addiction or the hype that much because im the writer LMFAOO i always feel indifferent about most of my fics

ykw, you suddenly inspired me to write more for our english prof geto. i’ve been thinking about elaborating more on the lore for awhile but for some reason ur specific feedback motivated me.. i’ll definitely be tagging you if i manage to write a part two or a prof geto x toxic spoiled reader. thank you once again for stopping by 💖💞

#( ♥︎ ) — my love andra.#maybe pt 2 will feature the reader and geto confessing #it would probably be very angsty #and ofc some hurt and comfort >:)#and maybe when the reader graduates she’ll elope with him #and having to break it off with prof nanami and gojo

[VENT]

genuinely so tired of this family making me constantly feel like I need to prove myself and gaslighting me into believing that I was the one who made the choice and I always had their support. Like no. Literally never. I’m graduating next month and I’ll get my degree soon but never once did they tell me oh I’m glad you’re happy with your career choices it’s always “why didn’t you go into med school it would’ve been easier for you to get it” yeah I know it was because have we idk considered maybe I don’t like biology?? Maybe I enjoy maths and computing more?? and now that I’m finishing my engineering degree the whole “why aren’t you getting a job” BECAUSE DAMMIT IM A RESEARCH STUDENT??? can you please for once please be fucking proud of me???? you say you are but god I don’t think you are I think you’re just lying because I once confided about wanting to end it all to you and now you’re just forced to be nice to me so i don’t do anything drastic. and then I get the fucking statement that “we never stopped you from doing anything you wanted” A FUCKING LIE. if I wanted to do what I wanted you’d let me go into arts and become an animation and movie director but you straight up told me to do the closest degree (being engineering), told me how I had no scope in that field because im not good enough for it but ykw I am good. Rather I was good. I knew how to direct things I had creative ideas for fucks sake all my theatre profs told me I was good and what am I doing in a stem college and just to not let that shred of creativity in me die and make me lose all my spark I did research. but still you keep telling me how you fucking wish I was a doctor or had a job that paid me like idk hundred thousand bucks a month and die on the inside. I’d rather just be dead. for once could you just please be proud of me I’ve published first author papers while I was in my undergrad, I was a national level finalist, fucks sake I was an intern in a different country purely on my merit that no one else got in the history of my batch. clearly I’m good at what I do and I don’t have to do it your way but please fucks sake please can you be proud of me? im like begging lol can we please not reduce me to my physical attributes all the time or call me an arrogant bitch because I’m trying to prove that I’m good enough? all this and you still make yourself the victim and wonder I wish I could leave this house already.
