Twelve cards

The first

Scavenger Merrow 3U Creature- Merfolk Rogue [common] When Scavenger Merrow enters the battlefield, draw two cards, then discard a number of cards equal to its power. Persist (When this creature dies, if it had no -1/-1 counters on it, return it to the battlefield with a -1/-1 counter on it.) 2/2

The second

Dreamshaper 2U Creature- Kithkin Wizard [uncommon] 2U: Tap or untap target permanent with a counter on it. Persist (When this creature dies, if it had no -1/-1 counters on it, return it to the battlefield with a -1/-1 counter on it.) 2/2

The third

Drowning Torment U Enchantment- Aura [uncommon] Enchant creature Enchanted creature has "At the beginning of your upkeep, return this creature to its owner's hand unless you put a -1/-1 counter on it." When Drowning Torment is put into your graveyard from the battlefield, return it to your hand.

The fourth

Song of Sorrow 2U Sorcery [uncommon] For each creature with a -1/-1 counter on it, you may add or remove one of those counters from it. Retrace (You may cast this spell from your graveyard by discarding a land card in addition to paying its other costs.)

The fifth

Filth Stirrer 4UU Creature- Elemental [uncommon] When Filth Stirrer enters the battlefield, put two -1/-1 counters on each creature you don't control unless that creature's controller returns it to its owner's hand. 4/4 Its murky tides sicken any strong enough to bear them and wash away any who are not.

The sixth

Uncanny Imitator 2U Creature- Shapeshifter [rare] You may have Uncanny Imitator enter the battlefield as a copy of any creature on the battlefield except it enters with a -1/-1 counter on it. 0/0 It looks just right enough to be horrifically wrong.

The seventh

Tidehunger 3U Creature- Elemental [rare] Wither (This deals damage to creatures in the form of -1/-1 counters.) If a creature with a -1/-1 counter on it would become untapped, you may instead remove a -1/-1 counter from that creature. (It remains tapped if you do.) 2/3 All things lost to lapping tides find their way to gnashing teeth.

The eighth

Faerie Sneak 1 U/B Creature- Faerie Rogue [common] Flying Put a -1/-1 counter on this creature: Surveil 1. (Look at the top card of your library. You may put it into your graveyard.) 1/3 Any would-be witnesses find a needle in their eye long before they find her.

The ninth

Fleshformer 3 U/R Creature- Shapeshifter [uncommon] At the beginning of combat each turn, you may add or remove a -1/-1 counter from Fleshformer. Fleshformer gets an additional +2/+0 for each -1/-1 counter on it. 3/3 The only thing ever constant about it a state of change.

The tenth

Sunkengrove Kelpie 3 G/U G/U Creature- Merfolk Wizard [rare] When Sunkengrove Kelpie enters the battlefield, draw a card for each creature you control with a counter on it. Persist (When this creature dies, if it had no -1/-1 counters on it, return it to the battlefield with a -1/-1 counter on it.) 3/3

The eleventh

Kelpfloor Lurker 2 G/U G/U Creature- Elemental [rare] All damage is dealt to Kelpfloor Lurker as though its source had wither. (A source with wither deals damage to creatures in the form of -1/-1 counters.) At the beginning of your upkeep, you may remove a counter from Kelpfloor Lurker. If you do, draw a card. 5/5

The twelfth

Shrunken Torment 1 U/B U/B Enchantment [rare] At the beginning of combat on your turn, put a -1/-1 counter on each creature you don't control with toughness 2 or greater. Though the merrows did not remember trapping the faerie as children, the faerie remembered, and repayed in kind.

Mutuals get a lot of love on this site but I think we should also appreciate the random followers who you see in your notes regularly. The ones who you'll probably never end up following but they like and reblog almost every post you make. The ones who you see and go "hey I recognize that person!! they love my posts!" every time they show up in your notifications.

Let's hear it for Blorbo from my Notes.

#randumbass thoughts #100k notes! i think its time to bring this one to a close folks #my notifications have been suffering the past few days

You know what I realize that people underestimate with Pride & Prejudice is the strategic importance of Jane.

Because like, I recently saw Charlotte and Elizabeth contrasted as the former being pragmatic and the latter holding out for a love match, because she's younger and prettier and thinks she can afford it, and that is very much not what's happening.

The Charlotte take is correct, but the Elizabeth is all wrong. Lizzie doesn't insist on a love match. That's serendipitous and rather unexpected. She wants, exactly as Mr. Bennet says, someone she can respect. Contempt won't do. Mr. Bennet puts it in weirdly sexist terms like he's trying to avoid acknowledging what he did to himself by marrying a self-absorbed idiot, but it's still true. That's what Elizabeth is shooting for: a marriage that won't make her unhappy.

She's grown up watching how miserable her parents make one another; she's not willing to sign up for a lifetime of being bitter and lonely in her own home.

I think she is very aware, in refusing Mr. Collins, that it's reasonably unlikely that anyone she actually respects is going to want her, with her few accomplishments and her lack of property. That she is turning down security and the chance keep the house she grew up in, and all she gets in return may be spinsterhood.

But, crucially, she has absolute faith in Jane.

The bit about teaching Jane's daughters to embroider badly? That's a joke, but it's also a serious potential life plan. Jane is the best creature in the world, and a beauty; there's no chance at all she won't get married to someone worthwhile.

(Bingley mucks this up by breaking Jane's heart, but her prospects remain reasonable if their mother would lay off!)

And if Elizabeth can't replicate that feat, then there's also no doubt in her mind that Jane will let her live in her house as a dependent as long as she likes, and never let it be made shameful or awful to be that impoverished spinster aunt. It will be okay never to be married at all, because she has her sister, whom she trusts absolutely to succeed and to protect her.

And if something eventually happens to Jane's family and they can't keep her anymore, she can throw herself upon the mercy of the Gardeners, who have money and like her very much, and are likewise good people. She has a support network--not a perfect or impregnable one, but it exists. It gives her realistic options.

Spinsterhood was a very dangerous choice; there are reasons you would go to considerable lengths not to risk it.

But Elizabeth has Jane, and her pride, and an understanding of what marrying someone who will make you miserable costs.

That's part of the thesis of the book, I would say! Recurring Austen thought. How important it is not to marry someone who will make you, specifically, unhappy.

She would rather be a dependent of people she likes and trusts than of someone she doesn't, even if the latter is formally considered more secure; she would rather live in a happy, reasonable household as an extra than be the mistress of her own home, but that home is full of Mr. Collins and her mother.

This is a calculation she's making consciously! She's not counting on a better marriage coming along. She just feels the most likely bad outcome from refusing Mr. Collins is still much better than the certain outcome of accepting him. Which is being stuck with Mr. Collins forever.

Elizabeth is also being pragmatic. Austen also endorses her choice, for the person she is and the concerns she has. She's just picking different trade-offs than Charlotte.

Elizabeth's flaw is not in her own priorities; she doesn't make a reckless choice and get lucky. But in being unable to accept that Charlotte's are different, and it doesn't mean there's anything wrong with Charlotte.

Because realistically, when your marriage is your whole family and career forever, and you only get to pick the ones that offer themselves to you, when you are legally bound to the status of dependent, you're always going to be making some trade-offs.

😂 Even the unrealistically ideal dream scenario of wealthy handsome clever ethical Mr. Darcy still asks you to undergo personal growth, accommodate someone else's communication style, and eat a little crow.

#hoc est meum #pride and prejudice #elizabeth bennet #charlotte lucas #meta #charlotte is a much less sociable person than lizzie #so avoiding her husband most of the time and not seeking out his company is more viable for her! #she also has more patience for people being wrong #partly i think because she kinds checks out and lets them get on with it which lizzie isn't too great at even with her mother #people have different needs like that's a thing okay #marriage #spinsterhood #pragmatism #like if elizabeth had to listen to collins talk for a few months straight she would be nearly insane with rage #he's not just a low-quality man he's a man designed to be the worst for her specifically #also note that because jane's marriage is elizabeth's fallback plan #darcy screwed her over personally by interfering between her and bingley #she ofc does not bring this up how could she #but it's intensifying the anger during the hunsford rejection i think

did you really let them ruin that for you?

when i was younger i worked on a farm for 3 years. during late july and august we would have unfettered access to the strawberry plots. they were all warm and ripe and fresh. i think i ate a pound of dirt back then. i think i picked enough seeds out of my teeth to build a temple. the summer hours are long; i'd come home with the bruising stain of juice running in a seam along my cheeks and fingers and jaw.

why didn't you protect your precious things from other people? you knew this could happen.

i can't eat strawberries from the store anymore, they don't taste right. something about the florescent lights and the chill of them and the way they are absent from the vine. they feel bleached and bland, a wasted party dress. i watch other people eat strawberries and miss enjoying them. none of the store-bought strawberries will have mold or bugs, okay. they will be big and bright red and perfectly shaped. but they are not the ugly and real strawberries of my summer, awarded by the soil and the hot sun up ahead and hours spent crouched, plucking.

i didn't mean to let it get ruined. i wish it hadn't been. i miss having it. but i came back to it afterward and it just wasn't the same as it had been. i know love is never wasted. but it feels like - love did this. it's not that i never loved it, you know? it's that i did.

#writeblr #this is both about strawberries #and also not about strawberries #i love that other ppl love strawberries but i legit got spoiled out of loving them #warm up #i doonnnt . like this #me every time i post a warm up: im legit just doin this to warm up so i write at least like a few times a week. but also. ew. #the ppl in the notes: raquel if u don't stop hating ur own work i'll actually kill u #(ty ty ty ty ty ty . literally wouldn't write without u)

imagine being lawrence gordon. you spent 6 hours in a dirty bathroom with a dead guy and a twink. you then had to cut your foot off and shoot and abandon said twink (that you spent the last 6 hours falling in love with). you make it down the hallway when the (not) dead guy grabs you and said ‘you work for me now’ (does being an apprentice even pay?). the next day you go to your apartment, take a big sigh of relaxation and turn on the tv. and 9/11 is happening

#like why does saw happen on 9/10/2001 #the movie came out in 2004 #they chose that day #cant believe this got 700+ notes akdhdkalkdh #and i could go on #about how the twink was also your stalker #a few days later lawrence is like hm i know im forgetting so- OH SHIT ADAM #(<<<joking ik he wouldnt forget) #saw #chainshipping #sawposting #saw 2004

while i get where this comes from and it’s true to an extent, i reeeaaaally don’t like how people try to explain “trans men don’t [necessarily] have male privilege” with things like “some trans men don’t pass”.

like sure that’s the most obvious example (someone who is seen as a woman won’t have the privilege that comes with being seen a man) but you’re still acting like being a passing trans man is just a free opt-in to male privilege which is………kinda the issue.

#personal #ohh don’t be weird on my post please this is just on my mind #i’ve seen it so many times just in the last few days #like yeah a passing trans man receives more benefits than anyone who’s seen as a woman #and i’m sure most people making those arguments DO understand that it’s not that simple #but very few people engaging in these kinds of discussions in good faith would argue that someone seen as a woman has male privilege #(note: VERY FEW people engaging in GOOD FAITH) #i see people be like ‘everyone thinks all trans men pass’ and like…….WHO is thinking that who’s also gonna listen to you here #maybe it’s just my grew-up-in-a-conservative-religious-environment thing but your experience is not universal #i would also like you to consider whether ‘anyone that looks like a man has male privilege’ is consistent with your other views #1k #(oh god guys please)

Imagine, for a moment, that your internet just stopped loading images one day. Your dash might look pretty different (and less usable), but at least you can still make posts — whether about your internet situation, or about completely unrelated topics.

Then, imagine that one or more of your posts blew up, to the tune of hundreds if not thousands of notes. Imagine people started adding images to your posts.

Imagine your post circulating almost entirely in the form with four or five images attached, and with everyone in the notes laughing about those images — except you, who started the post in the first place, who can't even see those images because you're trapped in Tumblr's loading gradient hellscape.

You're excluded from any further conversations on your own post, because someone added a mystery image with the caption "don't leave this in the tags," but you have no idea which set of tags it is, and can't tell if it's one of the good takes from the tags or one of the horrible takes from the tags. You're excluded from the Tumblr users playing with JPEGs like dolls. You can try to guess the contents of the images based on people's reactions, but it's hard. And no one adding images even seems to notice the irony.

This is, of course, a real problem plaguing Tumblr users with regularly slow internet. And it's also a huge, insidious problem plaguing blind and low vision people who rely on either screen readers, or image descriptions in combination with enlarged text on their device.

People with disabilities around comprehending images, people who have images (or gifs) disabled due to photosensitivity, and many others are also affected.

If you add an image to a post without either alt text, an in-post image description, or even both for maximal inclusivity, you don't know if OP — or the person whose tags you're peer reviewing, or whose reply you're screenshotting — will actually be able to see it. From their perspective, you might just be shoving a mystery rectangle in their face, expecting them to be able to guess — or responding to them without them being able to know.

Imagine being on the receiving end of that expectation constantly. Imagine how isolating that must feel.

We need, collectively, to stop making assumptions that everyone we interact with online will be able to access, physically see, and mentally process images. The assumption that disabled people are vanishingly rare and statistically shouldn't really need to be considered is an assumption of structural and/or implicit ableism.

Write image descriptions. Write image descriptions for every image you post, if you're able — but if you have limited energy, or you're still learning, you should at least start trying your absolute best to describe images you add to other people's posts. If you're starting a conversation, even an online conversation, you should make your best effort to be accessible.

So: Write IDs, especially if they're as simple as just text, like screenshotted tags (link to guide). Write IDs even if you think the best ID you can write is too short, or too incomplete (link to post explaining why even "bad" IDs help).

Write IDs in general (link to a huge compilation of guides). Challenge ableist assumptions and inaccessibility.

#this is not a callout post or anything - i've actually reminded a few people in my notes about this recently #pointing out the disability flag in my icon - and they've all been very courteous #it's just that the site culture as a whole needs to change. urgently #accessibility #image descriptions
