I apologize if this has already been pointed out, I've specifically been offline more recently so my head hasn't fully been aware of everything flying around. But I wanted to note that Tyler Trances claims he had nothing to do with the original call out doc, but if you look at the one he 'did' write trying to call plaidos racist, they are formatted the same way. The screenshots are just as compressed as the original doc, and I really want this noted that the fucked up appearance of some of those screenshots is so bad they're sorta one of a kind in this day and age, but both docs have screenshots just as crunchy as each other. Both docs utilize the exact same highlighter method, which seems silly but how a person decides to highlight information to draw your eye is very telling, and in this case it's the same. Everything about the two docs look nearly identical. The way they present information is the same. The throwaway blog Tyler made to host his doc even feels similar to the throwaway blog made for the original. I think everyone already suspected he had something to do with that original doc even if he claims otherwise, but straight up I firmly believe he wrote it.
ok, kind of a loaded ask. anon, i appreciate ur observations, but i have honestly not read enough callouts (ive seen like 5 total) to know if this is just a callout thing or if this is a "these two docs are suspiciously similar" thing. highlighting very selective parts of bad screenshots of posts doesnt seem to me like that big of a similarity as to claim he wrote both. its just unserious, rushed and sloppy work, and anyone w enough time in their hands and passion (hatred) in their heart can do that. even if he wrote both or not i think its kind of irrelevant
more worrisome imo, is that both show that there is an organized effort to document every interaction a loud enough transfem has (moreso if theyre "gross and problematic"), and i think thats far worse than the possibility that the same person wrote both. i think some people have noticed that a callout, when effective, "detects the filth and defeats it," and to some people that is a good way of getting rid of the Undesirables and "cleansing the world," because they genuinely believe that some people (almost transfemmes exclusively), when theyre Undesirable enough, can be excised from their communities either by universal collective shame and harassment, or by being ostracized by their own peers. just paint a big enough target with a good enough motive and people will shoot and take down an entire group of people, or they will shame, silence or ignore them as long as theyre an Acceptable Target
these latest callouts being so sloppy and transparent in their efforts to justify socially killing us, have been hilarious and a good demonstration of how pathetic these things can be. they were almost completely ineffective. almost. im sure some people have seen them and silently agreed with parts of the callout tho

anyways thinking abt the amount of people involved in jin zixuan’s death is gonna make me a little insane. like u have wen ning who physically did it. wei wuxian who lost control. jin zixun who planned the ambush. jin guangshan who gave the fucking order to kill wei wuxian in the first place because his son *checks notes* wanted his wife to be happy. the many other people in jinlintai who knew that the ambush was going to happen. and then jin guangyao. oh boy. jin guangyao knowing about the ambush, being involved with the hundred holes curse, hating jin zixun, and then sending jin zixuan to the site of the ambush like. buddy how many birds did u kill with that stone.

ok based on what im seeing from cohost it actually seems like the best alternative if you actually wanna be able to make whatever kinda posts you want. so like for my purposes it HYPOTHETICALLY works best. its also pretty similar to tumblr in terms of layout though im not a huge fan of the design of the site? hopefully i can customize it more though- theres a waiting period of about a day or two before i can really post or do anything so i really cant say 100% if im on board
but if tumblr went down i might try to use cohost for my oc stuff, and honestly i would like it if enough ppl used it so that i could just stay on there, but if i have to use twitter to keep in touch w ppl so be it. i really hate how public twitter feels though, i like it better on smaller sites like here and, well, hypothetically cohost, where it doesnt feel like i could be subject to the public eye at any point.
so yeah ill tell you all how good or bad it is once the waiting period is over and hopefully if its good enough for me and maybe some of you we can make accs to move to, if the time ever comes. but for now im happy with my stuff here and i hope i can keep it here. if you already have one my username there is the same, tho obvs its empty. anyway im going to watch k on

@tenacquity continued from here!
Sharp eyes ignored the human as they walked. The call of his karma would alert Xiao to any nearby monsters long before they appeared within eyesight, yet his gaze still searched the elongated shadows cast by towering peaks and jagged slopes. Ever vigilant. Ever prepared to exterminate evil the moment it appeared.
Which meant that Xiao missed the human's bewildered scrutiny of their surroundings, but no matter—his tone spoke to being lost in more ways than one before his question made it obvious. Tch—no wonder he'd been wandering through Jueyun Karst so carelessly. Liyue's citizens knew better than to set foot in the realm of the adepti. Shouldn't they also teach outsiders where it was too dangerous for their own kind to tread? That responsibility should fall to the mortals themselves, not to those who were the danger that was best avoided.
"The adepti are illuminated beasts who were tasked with protecting Liyue by Rex Lapis eons ago," Xiao concurred. "Most keep their distance from humans and make their abodes here in these peaks. Mortals only dare set foot here out of greed or desperation." A pause, then a pointed look skewered the human sidelong. "The pointlessness of your presence here is the most foolish 'reason' of all."
Though the human kept pace, Xiao held his spear in the hand nearest to him: forcibly keeping distance between them. "Despite their vows of protection, the others do not hesitate to punish mortals who enter their domains. Had you stumbled upon Mountain Shaper's peak, for instance, you'd find yourself encased in amber for the rest of your pathetically short lifespan."

12 what’s overrated in the rpc?
13 what’s underrated in the rpc?
//Oh gosh. Boy oh man do i dislike container themes. Theyre okay when they're large enough to read, but most of the time they have teeny tiny 2pt font that i cant even be bothered to try reading. i shouldnt have to zoom my web browser in 250% to read a blog. Not happening!
//Underrated is definitely harder. Uh... To be honest, besides blog themes i don't really notice many trends in the rpc. I guess fandomless OCs feel a little underrated. NO WAIT, i can make this one about themes too (seriously, custom themes are one of the best, most unique parts of the tumblr experience and i love them) Too many people rely on Carrd these days. I get it, it's hard to redirect folks who use mobile (thanks staff), and you gotta know html to customize a theme, but I'm just not a fan of carrd's limited customizability when tumblr themes will let you do so much more for free. But i've also been editing themes since i was like 13 years old so maybe i am just built different. Who can say.
