I am once again reiterating that Leo could and should be a figure skater because what are ice skates if not twin blades? What is dual blade swordsmanship if not a dance-like performance? Using the skates as blades themselves could let Leo make portals be his ice rink no? I rest my case. ⛸️

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt leo #rottmnt headcanons #rise leo #would also like to add that he loves glam rock and unicorns! and what’s something glam rock unicorns and figure skating share #that’s right ✨glitter baby✨ #(his glam rock look unironically fits right in with figure skater attire ngl) #I also mentioned his incredible ability to hold a pose before which helps him here #plus his fighting style in general can easilyyy incorporate figure skating elements #I am this 👌 close to animating a quick gif to show what I mean by those ice skate portals #and I do specify figure skating over hockey because 1) hockey is CASEY’S thing 😤 and 2) hockey just. doesn’t fit Leo? not enough ✨pizzazz✨ #episode where the A-plot is Casey Sr showing her love for hockey and ending up playing a life or death game against yokai #she brings Raph in for help (since I like Casey & Raph friendship) and he gets the rest of the fam to help fill out the team #Casey Jr is especially excited but he’s never actually played hockey before #Leo tries to join and immediately accidentally makes a portal with his skates when he tries twirling to show off #the gang wins the match and the ep ends with Leo finally making it back completely beat up from accidental portals #the gang: wow we won! haha let’s go get hot chocolate it’s cold in here #leo: *desperately twirling over an active volcano* THIS IS THE OPPOSITE PLACE TO BE RIGHT NOW #actually to extrapolate on this more I really adore the idea of the boys’ abilities needing to be retrained as they grow #because their powers have the opportunity to grow #Mikey just randomly floating off and needing to be tethered down until he gets the hang of it lol #and stuff like that

how did you learn about seasoning your corset and like stuff you need to do to wear it everyday? I've been trying to figure out similar stuff but not really been sure what to even look for, and google has sadly not been helpful. (also you look great with it!)

I did some googling abt corsets too before I bought one, but actually the place I got mine from (orchard corsets) had a bunch of videos on youtube! there were a couple about what to do with a brand new corset, how to lace yourself in, the steps for seasoning, stuff like that. I'd highly highly recommend. edit: I should provide links huh lmao. 

How to measure yourself for a steel boned corset How to lace yourself into your corset What to do with a brand new corset How to tuck your lower stomach into a corset

This is a vid of someone lacing up their own corset w their back to the camera the whole time (I slowed it down and Studied this)

I thought this video was fun, it’s just a comparison between modern (medical) back braces and victorian corsets (but it’s not instructional)

#sergle answers #there are A Lot of vids #there's also stuff on there about how to completely relace it #how to size corsets for men #how to put your stomach In the corset so it doesn't squeeze out the bottom #and stuff like that

Since apparently my brain cannot shut up it decided to make ANOTHER au scenario (I decided that I am not touching When The World Crumbles until January because everytime I open the google doc my mind goes fucking blank, meanwhile Sunshine of The Woods and Lost But Never Found continue to mock me)

The 2012 boys all die in the final battle against the Super Shredder (except Leo he dies a month later) and are reincarnated in the rise universe

However unlike most reincarnation aus the reborn 2012 boys arent adopted by the rise boys, no these poor kids are basically street orphans for the first 8 years of their lives. Then they meet the rise boys (I would put their meeting a few days after the events of Todd Scouts)

They dont remember their past lives except through nightmares.

They have the marks of their causes of death as birth marks

The age order has also changed with the oldest turtles being the ones who died first (so the new age order from oldest to youngest would be: Mikey, Raph, Donnie and Leo)

This would definitely be the au that is mostly crack and fluff that gets darker and darker as we go :)

And I am not touching this au again until Sunshine Of The Woods is completed because Im not that insane

#tmnt 2012 #rottmnt #tmnt crossover #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #teeange mutant ninaj turtles #:) :) :) :) #to give you an idea of the angst level #if I were to publish this au as a fic on ao3 #I would have to tag it #implied/referenced character death #and implied/referenced suicide #among other tags #like ptsd #and stuff like that #yeah #why did my stupid brain see the turtles and go #lets make them suffer unimaginable horrors #I swear im all good mentally #but fictional characters are so fun to torment

i dont know if you wanted a genuine answer to the what the fuck do we do question but i wanted to respond bc you brought up some good points

protesting and mutual aid hasnt overthrown the government yes but theyre something we should keep doing, keep doing better and keep doing more of. building community support is so important if/when things go completely to shit. a support system when the government is either actively hostile towards the people or indifferent to people’s needs is essential. the gov is hostile to certain people already (homeless people, poc, indigenous people, queer folks etc) and these things help even when they dont seem like theyre doing much! theyre keeping people alive one more day and that is an accomplishment in a society that wants to extinguish people

you said you cant really do anything while being 16 but thats not true at all. institutions want everyone particularly children teens and other oppressed people to feel powerless and be helpless so they can keep doing what theyre doing but now is the time to learn skills, learn anything that can help you down the road — survival skills, gardening, medical skills like first aid, self defense, how to protest, community building skills. get other people your age involved if they want and invite ur friends to learn and do things that point the world in a direction you’d like. learn your community and local outdoor environment, they can teach you a ton about your surroundings. making connections is very crucial bc it breaks down the illusion of each person as an island separate from everyone else.

is there any local group, club, event or workshop you can become a part of? join that! tbh what ive found out is that revolution isnt always tearing things down. sometimes its planting a garden. sometimes its giving your hungry friends food. sometimes its sitting at the library and reading. sometimes its protesting inside capital buildings, sometimes its marching, sometimes its riots. its always about looking out for each other and thats something anyone can start doing!

i didnt expect to open my inbox to something actually like helpful lol tysm for writing all this :) i kinda just wrote all those tags cuz ive been in a weird frustrated mood today and just lately in general over everything ive been seeing in/realizing about the world and sometimes i feel like people seem to brush this kind of work aside as something that cant help to make the world a better place (mutual aid, protesting, helping ur local community etc) and it kinda frustrates me cuz trying to do much more than that with the currest state of the world isnt really all that attainable/sustainable yk what i mean ?

the things you brought up here were things i kinda already had in mind that people need to start appreciating more (especially in online leftist spaces, at least from what ive seen of them) and i was moreso criticizing the lack of insight(?) - and in a way, empathy - that people seem to have with those who arent able to really take direct action for things they believe in/want to change for the better, if that makes any sense

also sadly no i kinda live in a secluded area from like nearby cities/public spaces (aside from my school of course lol) that would host those kinds of things and i kinda get the feeling that my Very Centrist Parents wouldnt rlly like me getting into that sort of thing lol (or having to provide transportation for me to Get to those places physically)

but (this is the part where i break the forth wall and talk to The Followers) i do recommend and encourage this sort of thing to anyone in a similar situation where they feel like they have no agency to help or contribute to causes they believe in :) YOU CAN CREATE CHANGE!! it is possible for things to get better!

#sorry if i sound like an asshole at any point during this i kinda only realized towards the end that i was writing an essay lmao #but !!!!!! this person made a lot of great points and i recommend all of these things to other young leftists out there #and stuff like that #tills ask box

support group for people who were hyper-empathetic as kids but had it bullied/traumatized out of them

#ok to reblog #i think i still have a lot of empathy and feel certain things more deeply than others #but there are things that would’ve made 10 year old me cry that now i react to like 😐👍 #i think my brain just learned that it’s not good for me to emotionally take on everyone else’s problems #it was exhausting #i also feel like it fluctuates. if my brain feels like i need to be in survival mode i will feel more apathetic #and stuff like that #idk where i’m going with this and i could add more nuance but i’m just rambling

[modern-alebrije]

working at a museum u realize how many people get soooo mad when u ask them to think even a little bit

#someone was upset that our virtual exhibition if landscape paintings #contextualizes them by being like ''hey this is a painting of yosemite made after the indigenous people living there were hunted and driven #-off their homes'' #and stuff like that #she said she ''doesnt need to be woke when looking at art'' which like #ok... what do u think art is

i know a lot about my ocs' sex life tbh especially sam and aiden i just don't talk about it

#as weird as it sounds sam and aiden's sex life is particularly important like #it IS significant for the story partially for just you know. conflicting feelings about being gay #and stuff like that #but mostly because of other things it's a lot

Really liked this little interaction about AI between Chase (Sojourn) and Jack in the Sojourn novel. Particularly liked the bit:

“Chess isn't like running - it's not a sport. It's an art. Deep Blue won by brute force. It calculated millions of moves per second -the predictable, the terrible, and the absurd-every possibility to the problem until it alighted on the 'best; most accurate solution."

"Accurate," Chase echoes. "Feels strange using that word in relation to chess."

"Exactly!" Jack says. "It's almost like asking, What's the most accurate brushstroke in a painting? What's the most accurate musical note?"

full offense but my ilw mc is so fucking cute dude. like. the customization goes so hard compared to regular ch0ices games i want to give every person on the team either a respectful kiss or a bajillion dollars this fangame saved my LIFE. i also want to give my ilw mc a respectful kiss and a bajillion dollars just for looking so good if we got the option to date ourselves i'd go for it sorry to the actual LIs but,

#UGH I WANT TO ADD MORE CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS TO TGP #but i only really add ones that will actually be mentioned in the story #i see no point in asking for the mc's eye colour when their eye colour is never going to be referenced ever if that makes sense #but at the same time i can see how it dould just be nice to have it as an option. even if it never comes up #idk man #i feel i can just leave it to player headcanon #it's different bc this is entirely text based #but sometimes i just wanna go insane with the customization and let players choose from a million different accessory/outfit combos #and sword designs #and stuff like that #SIGH.

Man, I remember how enthusiastic a younger-me was on doing voice acting

How stupid I was

#syd says #uggghh hate the state of the arts rn #not that my dreams weren't killed years ago but #went to some local actor's get-together and some dude I asked about VA stuff basically said #'it's a hyper-competitive field and why would a voice director hire you when established and natural accent VAs already exist' #and stuff like that #I get that it's true but christ #if only I wasn't raised in a stranger danger xenophobic type ass household maybe I'd have a social life #and connections for business things like that

Sights like this are very common around this world of ours... we've grown quite used to exploring forests, caves, and even vast deserts and seeing the rubble of a once great civilization.

Sorry, I just love the idea of post apocalyptic settings a little... too much. I kinda wanted to draw this after my last text post. My only regret was making the building too small

I'm going to explode

WHY IS IT SO HARD TO FIND RESOURCES FOR BUILDING SELF CARE HABBITS AS AN AUTISTIC ADULT???

PLEASE I JUST WANT TO KNOW WHAT HELPS OTHER AUTISTIC ADULTS BUILD A HABIT FOR BRUSHING YOUR TEETH

But every FUCKING search is like!!! How to get your autistic child to brush their teeth!!! Fun fact, I don't have mommy and daddy to play with me in the bathroom to make a horrible sensory experience seem fun

HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE

Also, if I see another fucking article from autism speaks while trying to learn how to take care of myself I'm going to start mailing bombs xoxo

#im trying so hard to find a task to pair it with but i cant seem to find anything #cuz pairing one task with another is how i get a lot of chores that i hate done #like #if i do laundry i play on my xbox while i wait #if im cleaning my fish tanks i get to listen to my radio really loud #if i take a shower i listen to music so i can time myself #and stuff like that #but idk what to pair ot with #music would be too overwhelming #theres not something that needs to be cleaned like laundry multiple times a day #i used to brush my teeth in the shower and then after that i was able to transition to brushing my teeth outside of the shower #but only after i took a shower #but now showering is a difficult task for me im only just building a habit with again #RAUGH #i wish i could be normal #i wish easy things were easy for me #lemon post
