#id say who the owner was but I don't want this post to be on any radar cause holy geez this was a garbage dream hahahaha

[dolldefiler]

haii !!

since we're being petty, i haven't held back on my pt2 of my previous ask >:)

i'm really sorry people are choosing to give you such abuse. continue to remember that we love you work and all of us depraved sluts would miss you so much if you quit for good :(

(i'm pretty certain my pt1 was posted on the 23rd if you've forgotten!)

 "ah not today sweetheart"

i look up sweetly, and my hands go to undo my shirt, but you grab them roughly, somehow able to hold both of my small wrists in one hand 's grasp. "are you this much of a desperate slut? always wanting my dick aren't you? who would know tha such a cute, innocent and humble little girl is ths needy"

i squirm and blush; daddys so amazing and strong, noone compares to my owner. i'd then whimper slightly, my pussys wet and throbbing, begging for attention. the attention of my one and only master and soulmate.  daddy's other hand goes to my ankles and takes off my panties, which id pulled down in haste to tease myself earlier. you'd dangle them in front of me, "they"re soaked sweetheart, were you this horny for daddy?" .

i try to move my arms but master's singular hand has me utterly restrained. "yes daddy... i couldn't help myself.. i'll be better, i'll be a.. a goodgirl for you i promise. i'm really sorry. i just wanted to feel good ".

i see you frown and suddenly, your hands are at my throat again. harder this time.

 "'feel good' hm? you wanted to 'feel good' without me? you're my fucktoy, understand? you're here to make me feel good, baby. if my little girl wants to feel 'good', she'll have to beg for my permission. do i make that clear?"

you tighten your grip until i can barely muster an "mhm" and you release me. I'd bite my lip, partly in fear and partly in awe of what you'd do next.

 "good slut, now open. yes, sweetie, your mouth. open wide.. yeah, that's my good girl" you put your two fingers in my mouth and i instinctively suck on them. daddy's fingers feel so good inside my  little droolhole. you push them further down my throat and i feel myself gagging slightly. daddy would then pull  his fingers out from my mouth. "stick your tongue out", you'd tell me and i do as i'm told immediately, feeling my pussy throbbing more, demanding attention and getting wetter with each command. "further." i do so and daddy spits in my mouth. "swallow" - i gulp, swallowing master's spit,  and then show daddy that his delicious spit is gone. "what do we say?" i look down at your dick and then back up at your face - "th-thank you master"

 "aw, does my favourite whore want daddy's dick to violently fuck her? is that what you were thinking about when you decided to touch yourself, hm?" without even waiting for my pathetic response, you push your hard and aching dick into my pussy. daddy watches my face intently as he does so, witnessing the exact moment of pain when your dick stretches my tight little pussy out all at once. you're as deep as possible, and i cant believe my pussys taken all of your dick this quickly. it hurts slightly but you're grabbing my ass to pull me close so that you can ensure every delicious and devastating inch of your dick is inside me, cosy against my walls.

master smiles at me and pats my head momentarily, allowing me to cockwarm him for a few moments and for me to adjust to his enormous presence inside me. then suddenly, his hands come back to my throat and hes thrusting into me. hard. fast. mercilessly. i feel as though i'm watching my body be fucked and abused in third-person. my uncontrollably wet pussy covers your cock in my slick, , allowing you to submerge yourself in and out of my tight little pussy. father's fucking against my walls faster and.. it feels so good, i don't want daddy to stop, but something about the way you're using my body, thrusting into me as hard as you can makes me want to scream out and beg you to free me, to stop fucking my pussy. maybe the thought of me actively telling, begging and pleading with you to stop and you not listening, too engrossed in fucking your way to heaven, turns me on even more. the decision to ignore a slut's cries for help as you fuck me with violent hunger in your eyes, as if you'd devour me whole. you're raping me.

the realisation of what i want hits hard, making me clench around your abusive cock. i hear master's grunts of pleasure as he continues to fuck my even-tighter pussy, and my mind is blank.... i know that you'd gladly eat me alive, perhaps biting your innocent little princess until you draw blood,  and then you'd blame me for being such a mindless whore. a slut that teases her pussy without permission...

daddy would kiss down from my neck to my tits, biting, licking and sucking them. my nipples get so excited when daddy licks and sucks them, it sends shivers down my spine. you're still fucking me, my whole body jutting with each hard thrust. i cant stop myself from whimpering and moaning in pleasure as you vigorously push yourself deeper inside me, withdrawing and then crashing into my depths once more, hitting my pleasure spots each time. my nipples are erect and you lick them. i feel you withdraw from me and i go to cry out, not wanting you to stop using my pink little fuckhole. but, you rise up and drag your tip along my tits, against my nipples, making my pussy throb and almost reach orgasm - without me even touching my little pleasure bean. as daddy teases me with his delicious tip, he'd whisper praises to me: "yeah, you like this? such a good fuckin whore aren't you, baby?.. what's that? you want daddy to put his dick between your tits?" you grab my throat again briefly, as if reminding me of your strength, before grabbing my hands and placing them on my tits, making me squeeze them together around your huge dick. "just like that baby, yeah.. i'm so.. fuck.. i'm so proud of my little girl". i blush again, wanting to rub my clit so badly, but both of my hands are preoccupied. daddy's slipping his dick between my tits, fucking them.

daddy's tip looks so perfect, so lickable and pretty. i go to spit on it, drool covering my chin and your dick simultaneously. my tits are sticky and i watch in excitement as i see daddy's precum emerge from his dick. i whisper (in fear) "um. please can.. daddy cum all... over me?"

you slap my face, hard. "i'll cum wherever the fuck i want, understand? you're my bitch okay? i fucking own you, baby. you and that little fucking pussy" as daddy says this, he puts his fingers inside my pussy. i whimper loudly, my hips bucking up. master would lean back, still fingering me and watching me as i writhe in pure heavenly pleasure. you slide your fingers out of my pussy and make me suck on them briefly before you push me down and position yourself above me. daddy starts to jerk off over me. i watch his glistening dick, admiring his veins and his big hands around his even bigger dick. daddy stops fingering me, moving his hands to squeeze the perky spheres on my chest, then playing with your balls above me.

i begin to finger myself, i can't help it. i'm such a needy slut for my master. daddys jerking himself off faster, his heavy breathing and grunts turn me on so much. "baby, i 'm gonna cum, open fucking wide" . i open my mouth and euphoria hits as daddys delicious cum covers my face. i swallow what's landed in my mouth, (it tastes so good..!) and look up at him as i finger fuck myself faster, my legs shaking as i'm about to cum. quickly, master replaces my fingers with his. daddys fingers are so much bigger than mine and you fingerfuck me deeper and more violently, i'm cumming on your fingers and i whimper and scream in our bed.  i can't muster a word or thought as i lie next to my owner, breathing heavily, my ass is glistening. my pussy drools from its defeat.

i'm so glad my daddy caught me playing with my pussy today :)

Quick question about Framework laptops: Can you not actually upgrade the motherboards on them? Because their site/Ifixit makes it look like you can.

https://guides.frame.work/Guide/Mainboard+Replacement+Guide/79?lang=en

It has admittedly been a few years since I looked at their site and it does look like they've launched an upgradeable motherboard.

I will admit that this doesn't necessarily do much to quell my skepticism, for this reason:

When I first started working with computers professionally in 2011 it was maybe a 70/30 split between SATA/IDE drives that came in with laptops and it was still quite common to pick up PCs with 32bit operating systems.

About 5 years ago it started becoming more normal for us to send computers out of the shop with either an SSD and an HDD or just an SSD.

Then it went to M.2s. Then NVMEs.

About every three to four years I've watched memory technology change - when I started is was DDR3, then DDR3L, then DDR4, and DDR5 has been shipping recently.

When I look at the Framework website I see that all the DDR4 is on sale and all the DDR5 is pre-order. Is motherboard that's compatible with DDR5 going to be backwards compatible with the parts of your framework laptop - like the keyboard, screen connections, battery, etc, that you've ordered over the years? Apparently the last three generations have been compatible for major components, but there have been issues with chargers between generations. It won't be compatible with the RAM, that's for sure - or your M.2 drive.

At that point you're replacing the motherboard every couple of years and possibly other components and will just be keeping the frame and body? I feel aluminum is not the biggest extractive concern associated with computer manufacturing. (Like at what point are we reducing actual waste and at what point are we bound up in aesthetics? If you're replacing your motherboard, processor, RAM, and storage drive every few years what is the waste that you're saving - the screen? The touchpad? how many motherboard cycles do you think a screen will last?)

Basically I have doubts about the durability of the modular model and the ability of framework to keep pace with the inevitable changes that will happen in computer technology as time goes on.

And if you have to replace your motherboard, processor, and RAM every two to three years to stay up to date I'm really not certain that I see much advantage (ecologically or technologically) in doing that over using a single laptop for 7+ years and upgrading it periodically.

Basically, here, what this user on the framework subreddit says:

(I'm not certain that IS the minority of users - tons of people on the specs post are talking about their 10-15 year old laptops, and I feel like if we could teach people more about computers from a purchasing and maintenance standpoint we'd have more people using their computers for ten years)

And also, it's expensive. The motherboard upgrade for a framework owner is as much as a lot of people would hope to spend on a new computer, and you'd still have to get new RAM at a minimum.

And I mean look I know that I think about computer part compatibility more than most people; i have probably purchased more computers in my life than anybody but corporate buyers at this point.

I think that framework is a great option for the people who know that that's the option that they want, but there seems to be the assumption among the community that people are blithely buying computers every two years and throwing out the old ones because they don't know any better and that misses a couple of points:

1 - most people work as hard as possible to get the most out of their computers, often pushing past the realistic ability to upgrade or maintain their existing devices

2 - people who do replace their computers on a 2-3 year schedule tend to do so either because they are very wealthy or because they are pretty broke. Most people who I encounter would *love* to keep their computers longer, but also find that $400 is prohibitively expensive and so are stuck in a cycle of refurbs and chromebooks and black friday sales.

Basically i think that framework is a great idea for people who need to have a new top of the line computer every three years; it is an improvement over buying a new computer every three years, it is doing the "re-use" bit of reduce, re-use, recycle.

However I think that's not most users and I think we could pretty easily get to a place where more users would benefit from reducing through better proactive purchases and maintenance.

Basically: I'm leery of telling people who aren't power users to get a power user computer even if it is theoretically easier to install RAM in a framework than to pop the bottom off of a Dell because it's not actually that hard to pop the bottom off of a Dell.

IDK the entire computer industry is fucked in a major way and at least framework is acknowledging that so props to them on that, and hey it rules that they have a refurb marketplace. That is definitely a company I'd trust for refurbished devices.

Making the Most of Discord - Fandom Server Layout

As I've had more than a few positive reviews of my delightful House of Hopeful Sinners (aside from the fun fake reviews we put together for the post in my pinned advertising the space) I figured I might use the setup to help demonstrate the potential ways to use the features when making your own server.

This is by no means saying "this is the only right and correct way to set up a server" it's more of a "this is how I manage it and it has worked really well for our purposes, feel free to use what we learned from it in your own spaces!"

I'll put different headings below the cut as we go so you can skip to what you need, and a little shameless self promotion right here for our creative focused 18+ NSFW Baldur's Gate 3 Fandom space~ CWs - Screenshots show mention of NSFW topics and titles. There are no details but some of the topics are words that would be on CW lists.

Rules, Ownership, and Mods

Starting out your own server is exciting, and we don't like to sit here and think "we're going to have problems", but it really is best to try and anticipate issues and put rules in place to prevent them. This is really going to vary based on the kind of place you are running, but as long as everything is clear your users can feel confident in the space. Nothing can damage a community more than a disagreement that is blown way out of proportion or an incident that gets out of hand. None of us are immune to mistakes, either, so being prepared is the best first step!

Make Your Rules Clear

Ambiguity in the rules is a very easy stumbling block. Keep your rules nice and clear, as specific as they need to be, and make sure that your moderation team are happy with the rules and how you would like them to be enforced when needed. I strongly recommend using a reaction role bot with your rules post so members agree they have read and understood the rules before entering the main server (more on roles and bots later!)

Choose Your Mods Wisely

Temptation might be to choose mods from friends, and that can be a good way to go! However, even with the best intentions, not everyone is going to mod in the way you would like them to. It can often be better to be a little more selective, and either offer the position to people who have mod experience already or use an application form with some questions that will help see if the mods will uphold your server values the way you prefer.

It can also be helpful to cover different time zones if your server is international, and having enough people will mean that nobody feels pressured or guilty if they need a break for any reason. Remember too that mods are volunteers, if you're the owner then final decisions and responsibility will come down to you in the end.

Age Restriction and User Safety

If you want to host NSFW content you need to be aware of user safety. Your most basic tool here is to set channels as age restricted. This is technically enough to cover you legally as the user has to manually confirm via a popup that they are old enough to view the content.

Personally? I prefer spaces that are explicitly 18+. I ensure this in HOHS by having people specify to a mod what year they were born. People are less likely to lie to someone directly than they are to click away a popup. This said, I do not recommend taking IDs or personal details due to Data Protection laws in various countries (as well as your members' rights to privacy, should they wish it). Verbal confirmation of the year of birth is fine. If you find someone is underage later, you can kick/ban them.

If your space is open to all ages with only some 18+ channels, you may want to verify birth year with users before they get a role to access those channels.

The reason for this is twofold. First, obviously, is safeguarding minors in online spaces. Although we are all well aware that minors access unsuitable content on their own, it shouldn't be encouraged or openly allowed, particularly with socialising with adults. The second reason is that any adult discussing NSFW topics with a known minor - even from an informal educational point of view without any unpleasant behaviour or intention - is very much at risk of ending up on a watch list. I'm very serious on that one. I have friends who have seen entire Discord servers and all their members in real legal trouble and on offender registers because the server knowingly allowed minors to participate in NSFW content channels.

So. Keep all of your members safe, check when you need to, and set up your channels and rules in the way that suits your space.

Categories and Basic Layout

Layout and Category Names

Your top category should be your welcome area if you have one, with your rules and whatever channel you want people to arrive in first at the very top. It can be tempting to put your admin section at the top, but this can make it more awkward to make your server invitations. Each category should also be nice and clear as to what is found there, so members can find the channels they want even when all the categories are collapsed.

This is how I arrange my welcome area, which is several channels which all technically contain rules (Contract Signing is the main rule list which users are directed to manually when we verify their age and give them access - more on that later!) but I personally prefer to make it easier for people to find things separately rather then being overwhelmed in one long channel. Use the layout that works for you!

A lot of servers also prefer to have separate categories for NSFW content, which is a very good way to run things if you want to have specifically separated content for peoples' comfort. You won't see that in the HOHS channels though as we are set up to be NSFW by default, and there is essentially only one pure SFW chat channel.

Naming Channels and Server Maps

I also personally prefer easy channel names. Whilst fun nods to fandom things might be an aesthetic/flavour choice, it may not be as helpful for your members to know where a piece of content or conversation belongs~ Having a map with a brief description of each channel's purpose will also help members to navigate, especially in a larger space.

Whilst it can be nice to use symbols or emojis in your channel names to denote the content (particularly using the 18 symbol for NSFW areas) this might make it a lot harder to link the channels in your server map or for users to link the channel to say "let's move our chat to this channel" when the topic changes, or "there's more on that topic over here". Emojis can work at the end of channel names with less interference, and honestly is something I am considering for aesthetics, though it's a lower priority.

Text Channels, Forum Channels, Voice Channels, and Threads

This is a big one for organisation so I'm going to go over them in sub headings one by one!

Text Channels

These are your bread and butter basic chat channels. They're wonderful for discussions and general chat, but in my opinion their weakness is in content sharing. Things like fan creations can get lost quickly when people respond to them, so you risk either discouraging the chat about a piece of work or losing work in the sea of conversation.

You can, of course, use slow mode in text channels so that users can only post once in each period of time. For extra busy servers, or open public servers, this can be a useful tool in spam prevention too!

Messages can be pinned in text channels which is handy for instructions, references, or other important information, but you are limited to a maximum of 20 pins and they might not be obvious to all users.

There are other ways to refine your text channels. For example, you can select whether people can post images, voice notes, files, and links into a channel. This is very useful if you need to prevent spam in a more important channel, or if you do not want to moderate the use of voice notes (more on those later).

For things like WIPs, some people like to have a slow mode so one new post every 6 hours and contain the discussion on that post to Threads. This can be helpful for some setups and work well, but it may still make older works harder to find so it's better just for more regular progress rather than a library of works.

Threads

Threads are essentially a side conversation within a text channel. They're fantastic for certain purposes like discussing an item that was shared, or containing a long conversation on one topic, and particularly things like discussions on lore and research that people might want to come back to at a later date without having to search through a text channel.

Text channels have a setting for how long threads will remain visible in a channel list.

After this time, threads are still available within the channel from the threads tab, but won't show up in the channel list until there is new activity inside the thread. Below is what threads might look like when active in the channel list - we use them in HOHS for Kink Specific Chat which means that only the people who have joined the threads will see them when they're active, and allows for people to choose which of those in depth conversations they want to be a part of. Informed Consent, really, and I keep a list of links to the threads in the CW list channel so people have an easy reference to find the content they do want to engage with more.

But these could be used for anything you like, from character specific chats to off-topic discussions, and you have the choice in your role setup to allow any members to create/use threads or have them only created by your mod/admin team so you have more control if you don't want a lot of threads popping up that are harder to moderate. This is how our kink specific topics appear in the channel list, but they are only visible here to those who have joined them. Like text channels, users can mute threads at any time and they won't get the white dot of new activity, or users can also leave threads if they want to leave that conversation entirely. Threads can be locked by moderators or put into slow mode too, so you do have options for control where needed.

(I also just want to note that the Feminization topic thread is not in the slightest bit transphobic or problematic, though it is here because not everyone is comfortable with that content and we respect that in this house~ HOHS is a very LGBTQIA+ positive and inclusive space)

Forum Channels

These are my absolute bread and butter for sharing fanfiction, art, and resources. Forums are newer to Discord, so it might take a bit of learning and convincing for more experienced users to get used to them, but trust me on this one; when you have Forums set up they are a much better way to display and discuss creative works.

The reasoning really is that works are searchable, taggable, and people can confidently discuss a work without worrying about clogging a chat channel.

Forum posts can look a lot like threads in the channel list, and have a similar timeout method for how long they stay in the channel list with no new comments/activity in them.

This is an example if how I've arranged the HOHS FanFic "Library" - I have covered the names of most of the fic post titles for other users' privacy and left my own visible as the examples for you. Similarly to Threads, only the posts that a user has interacted with will show up in their channel list, so you don't need to worry about everyone's channel lists being swamped with forum posts that aren't relevant to them.

So here, each of the speech bubble headers is the Forum Channel title. When you're actually in a forum channel you (or any member) can refine how the posts are viewed. Here's some of the art share channels. I have covered the images to protect the works, as I do keep strict rules that art must have a link to the original artwork on a public share by the artist unless the artist is the one posting (ie, no sharing paid patreon only works or things the artist has not made public) so that proper appreciation can be shown to the original.

So this is in "Gallery View" where each post appears as a square with an image preview if there are images. You'll also see tags on the posts - these are a great way to find works and sort through them! You can have up to 20 tags available, and members can apply up to 5 tags to a single post. The tags can then be selected in the gallery menu to show works with that tag on them. This is what I have under "Main Character Art"

You can choose the emojis, and you are able to use your server emojis for these tags too if you like! Unfortunately though this is going to be a tedious part of setting up forum channels, you can't copy them over.

As an example of tag filtering and List View of a Forum, here's the Villain Fic Forum. So again we have those friendly grey boxes to protect the privacy of other members, but I've left my content uncovered for you~

Here you can see I've selected the Haarlep filter, so it is showing works with the Haarlep tag starting with the most recent. List view shows a shorter preview of each piece, and I hovered over the +1 part of the tags on the third post to show you how the extra tags can be seen. The most recent comment is displayed in the preview as well.

So essentially this way people can share their art and fics without worrying they'll get lost. People can also discuss each work in its own post without a long list of threads, and browse older additions based on the tagging system or searching by title in the top bar.

I think that mostly covers forums other than the setup of them which is relatively straightforward - similar to text channels you can use slow mode for both new forum posts and/or comments on forum posts, and the tags can be whatever you want them to be. Just remember you have a maximum of 20 tags for each forum channel and a maximum of 5 per post.

The only other thing is when you are adding tags there might be errors if you have made any other changes to the channel - save those changes with this button before trying to add tags!

Voice Channels

The last area to look at is Voice Channels. These are going to be harder to moderate, so you may want to consider what your community is like and what you want and need from voice channels.

Voice channels come with their own chat channel attached which can be useful for those who don't use a mic, those just dropping by who haven't joined the voice (so you can see here I'm not actively in the VC but I can open the chat window), for sharing images/links that you're discussing in voice, and similar.

Some people prefer to have a separate text channel to chat in alongside voice, which can be better for when you're streaming or running activities, because the attached text chat takes up a part of even the popout window for the voice/streaming/activity.

There are more options like stage channels where you can have a limited number of presenters and the audience are muted. This is great if you want to host talks or specific events and watch parties!

Lots of options so you can age restrict the channels as needed, as well as setting user limits. When a voice channel is active you can also set a status to it. You can choose if members are allowed to do this or only certain roles, but it's a good way to let members know what's going on without joining.

You might need to be cautious with the quality and settings on these if people have difficulty participating with connection quality.

Again, moderation is going to be a concern in a larger or open server, so make sure you have rules established and that members know who to contact in case of issues. But when used well, voice channels can be a lot of fun and even comforting or inspiring for members to get together and play games or work on creative pieces alongside one another. You can even host watch parties with some services.

Roles and Permissions

Roles are going to be the backbone of your member organisation. Beyond the usual Mods and Member roles, you can use them for a number of different organisational and interactive features within your server.

The Order Of Roles

The function of roles will go in the order you have them in your server. This determines where they show up on the member list (it is optional to have roles separate like this), the image that will show up with a member's name who has the role (this is for level 2 and 3 boosted servers), and the colour of a user's name who has the role.

So here even if a Haarlep's Helper Mod had the Swinger of Swords role, their name would be that red tone. Similarly if a user chose both Healer of Souls and Friend of Nature, their name would be Yellow because Healer is the higher ordered colour.

Role Colours

The main thing to remember with Role Colours is to ensure that they are easy to read for people using the default light or dark mode of Discord. Those who pay for Nitro may have more options for background colours, but most members will use the defaults. You will see examples when setting the roles that can help you determine if the colour you have picked will work. The default list are balanced relatively well to have contrast to show up in a readable manner for you, so it's more the custom colours that you might have trouble with.

So that standard dark red is pretty clear on both, but this custom blue is somewhat painful on the dark mode version:

Similarly this pale yellow is perfect on the dark mode, but against the light mode background it's almost invisible.

Commonly Used Roles

Some of the most commonly used roles are for pronouns, so users have an easy way to know how to refer to their friends in chat. Some servers like to assign a colour to these for a quick visible reference. I've used images with them in HOHS

So this is also in the order so that the highest role is the one that appears next to the name (you can only have one image icon unfortunately), and hovering over the image will also show the role name.

This is just one way you can make use of the roles for your members~ I'll go over making it easy for members to choose them a bit lower down but I would like to mention one of my favourite uses of roles:

Optional Pingable Roles

These are some of the more basic alert roles I use - members can opt in, and some of them are able to be pinged (notification tag) by any members. So people can use "@ Beta Reader" to ask for those with the role if they're available to help read and edit a WIP, and the admin/mod roles can alert members to server changes with the Server News Alert role.

One way I really like to make use of these for member engagement is character based pings which are perfect for fandom servers like ours~

These are just a few, I've got them set up for a lot of characters, and allowed anyone to mention the roles. I encourage members to use them for both fics and art, so people with the role know there is new content for their favourite and where to find it. With the bot setup, people can remove their role at any time if they find the notifications overwhelming.

So this is an example where I used them for a fic, tagging the character roles. We do the same when sharing found works and art, which means those looking for the content don't miss their favourites.

Role Permissions

Your roles can all be customised to have global permissions, and each channel can have its own permission overrides where needed too. So for example you might want a role to be able to post images and files in most of the server, but you might not want that role to post them in a specific channel that you want to keep as text only.

It takes a while but properly setting up each channel will give you better control over the content to reduce the moderation work in the long run (ie, you won't need to ask people not to put things in the wrong places).

A Note On Voice Notes

Voice notes are going to be a very personal preference thing. I generally prefer not to use them, because users may not be able to listen to them at the time which makes moderation more difficult too. I have also seen issues arise from the use of voice notes, especially when people post them with no context note of what to expect.

So, personally, I disable voice notes in my server. I have seen them well used in other places, and they can arguably be an accessibility feature, however if you leave voice to text and text to voice enabled then those who need to hear or use voice instead of typing should still be able to interact as they need to.

I would generally advise asking members to leave at least a few words with their voice note, for example "replying to [username]" or "impression of [character]" or "discussion of [topic]" so that people know what to expect when they hit play. It's entirely up to each of us how we run our own spaces, however, so choose the best option for you and your server~

Helpful Bots and Setup

Bots can help you get the most out of your server without too much hard work once they're all set. These are the ones I personally use and recommend for different features, but there are a number of options out there to choose from!

Reaction Roles

If you have roles, this is the easiest way to allow people to choose and assign them for themselves and change them when they wish!

So this is using Carlbot https://carl.gg , which I have renamed "The Archivist" for a theme in our server. There are a lot of functions to Carlbot, but the most commonly used are these reaction roles.

It's relatively easy to set up, but you will need to manually type or copy the emoji code for the reacts you're using for the roles. There are a few other settings you can play with there too, like only allowing those with certain roles to pick up a new role.

It's also a great one to have people confirm they have read your rules to access the main server if you role lock your main channels to the member role.

Starboard

One fun feature that Carl (and some other bots) have is Starboard. This is a way for members to highlight their favourite messages on the server and look back at those moments! You can choose how many star reactions are needed for a post to go there, then they will automatically be sent to your starboard channel. You can also choose whether or not to include NSFW marked channels, so if you want Starboard to be SFW only that is an option. One that I didn't take for HOHS given that we are NSFW by default~

Ticket Bots

This is one of your easiest moderation tools - you can use a bot like https://ticketsbot.net/ which will allow users to raise an issue privately with ease. The command is often /open to bring up a new ticket which mods can then join - it'll show up as a thread for you. It doesn't take too much setup on the dashboard and there are other options, but this can be a lot easier than asking people to DM a mod directly.

Automated Messages

Carl and other bots can send automated messages on a schedule for you. This can also include notifying certain roles, so if you want to have a weekly progress check-in set up for creative communities, or even self care reminders a couple of times per day, that's all very easy to get running and can help you to keep the community ticking over with engagement on a semi-regular basis.

Post Embed Fixing

Meet one of my favourite content bots - Keto (Click here to add it to your server). This one takes site links to Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, and others and puts a proper visible or playable version in the server.

This is so useful particularly for TikTok where the standard Discord setup will show you a still image with a play button on it.

You can see here that the bot automatically takes the link and converts it to a playable video (which is a still image here, but you can see the buffering bar on there). As with other bots, I gave it a nickname in the server for flavour and fun~

Good Gods That's A Lot Of Work

I know, right? Setting up a server isn't something you can do overnight, not if you want to have a larger space. Often servers will reorganise as they go, making more space as they find what their needs are, but if you can set up how you want it from the start, that can make things a lot easier so people don't have to adapt and adjust as much to a change.

Any Questions?

I think I covered pretty much everything other than the very basics of server setup, but I am more than happy to help any of you with questions about the setup, use of forums, channel layout, and anything else you need with your Discord organising~

And as always, those who share our values are welcome in my House of Hopeful Sinners~

[lustale]

Hello everyone! Thank you all for almost 50 followers!! :3c All activity has been on my main account @morguemaw, so if you want more direct content of Lusttale shoot me a ask about it!!!!

So, abit has changed over the few months and i have a update, coupled with info for all you new guys who found this blog!

1) AU is decided to be 16+. Its suggestive, no NSFW will be posted/shown as i want whatever content i MYSELF to post to be accessible to everyone within a comfortable range! There will be light sexual jokes, however if at any point it reaches too much, please tell me! I know the AU itself should obviously be considered a Explicit Rated AU, however i know there are people who enjoy the AU without the sexual aspects.

2) This AU is not a fan AU OR variant: This AU was made with the plan to 100% rewrite Underlust, i will explain below!!

Why the rewrite?:

I've loved Underlust since i joined the Undertale community, and others have too! However, the owner WAS involved and DID create content involving fontcest, a nazi Chara, Frans content, and was friends/mutuals with others who also created gross content like BlogTheGreatRogue and Lizherubones. This disgusted me and made alot of others feel the same. The AU was left off on a confusing as shit note, from the disgusting writing of Lust MTT to the messed up relationship between the brothers. I want to erase this the best i can. Alot of characters have also 0 content (Such as Lust Alphys) and although i will mostly focus on Sans/Papyrus/Frisk still, i WILL be creating content for mostly every character to again ensure the AU is fully fleshed out for as much enjoyment as possible.

Wheres the creator/owner?:

Awhile back, the owner, NSFWshamecave/Niel, left the internet and the AU for personal and mental reasons and bounced between owning and not owning the Au. They have since been MIA(Missing In Action) from the internet and AU, i doubt they will return or be involved at this point. The AU is considered fandom owned, which if you prefer that i support it, but do not interact with my blog as im basing everything on a rewritten POV with the entire intent to overhaul the AU without being too different or too similar.

What about the Underlust domain name?:

Lusttale CAN be called Underlust, BUT i prefer Lusttale to separate it as its alot easier, HOWEVER i have no issue with it being called Underlust! (Just still please credit/tag me, id love to see any content!)

What about fan AUs or others who make their own Variants?:

Keep going! I support these ten fold. Ive seen so many creative AUs overall, including a recent aroace one that has such adorable designs and is why i want to refresh myself and explain this blog to anyone new who might mistake me as a fan account. If you want to consider your variant a version/variant of my Rewritten AU, please tag me! Id love to see your AUs, your Varaints, EVERYTHING!!

HOWEVER. I do NOT support a single soul who ever uses my AU for Frans, Fontcest, or akin. Dont tag me OR interact with me, its public knowledge how the community feels about those, and im one of the many who don't like that content and wish for my AU to not be used in it. Self inserts, OC/Y/N x Lusttale, or etc is the same, id love to see it!!

What about Swaplust/Lustfell/AUs?:

Swaplust is also inactive: I have had my own interpretation of Swaplust since i found the AU when it was first made, Lustfell however i dont know, if its requested i will create something but i dont want to just claim every Lust AU out there. Not saying im claiming ownership of Swaplust, im saying that the Swaplust i want to make will be considered canon AU and it will be the ONLY Underlust AU i will ever claim, Swaplust has the same exact permissions. (Swaplust too had a very close Frans suggested ship, that is my reason for it)

To clarify if needed, im not forcing the view of me owning the AU onto every Underlust created content, im just saying if you yourself, the community, support what i do, i will continue, hence why i say tag me! I love to see it!

What about headcanons/outdated info like Sans being shorter?:

RN, Sans is the same size as Gaster Sans (i think 5' something?) however im fine with people drawing him short! ^^

Head-canons are also fully fine!!! Tell me any you think of, id love to hear. As long as you respect that i have my own plans, id be overjoyed to read whatever you guys think of or have.

So, to sum it up, Underlust has had a MIA owner since 2019/2020. Because of the history, and the way its loved, its a massive honor if i could step up and help give the community a AU with a solid backstory, solid characters with fleshed out personalities, and a structured plot that will replace something that was/is beloved. The best i can explain it, is my goal is to structure the AU but still keep support for the community as the AU was indeed considered Fandom Owned, again, you do not have to support me wanting to claim it, just do not bash me for it, as im absolutely not considering Lusttale a variant or AU, im considering Lusttale canon.

Questions are welcomed, if you have any concerns i can also explain! (Anon/Off Anon preferred so i can have it be public accessible incase others have the same questions)

FNAF MOVIE NOVEL REVIEW

I just finished reading the FNAF movie novel, and id like to give some thoughts on it

This post will contain spoilers for both the FNAF movie and it's novelization! continue at your own risk!

Overall I would say this is a pretty good adaptation of the movie, and it actually provides some additional context for some of the weaker plot points of the movie. A prime example being Aunt Jane's motivation for wanting custody over Abby. In the book there is a trust fund for Abby set up by her grand parents, Jane wants to take this money for herself and sees getting custody of Abby as the ticket to that money.

Some scenes in the book play out much differently then in the film, but generally things end in the same spots as they do in the movie.

being inside the characters heads allows us to get more characterization out of everyone, and for the most part I really like what they did here.

EDIT: The section on Doug is no longer relevant, Scott has announced that book Doug is non cannon, and new prints of the book have entirely rewritten his character, I don't have a newer print so I can't tell what's changed, maybe I'll buy one eventually to see.

The only character who I think is a direct downgrade from the film is unfortunately Doug. In the film Doug comes off as a hapless lawyer who is being held hostage by his client who is clearly in the wrong, and he still comes off like that in the book but with a clear difference. In the film we feel sorry for him, clearly he's not a bad guy, he's caught up in something he doesn't want to be in. In the book he is barely spoken about, and when he is described he is described as being spaced out and nearly catatonic. Other then not wanting to be there his only other trait in the book is being a creep. The Sparky's Diner scene is seen from Max's perspective in the book, and we get some amazing characterization from her, expressing her discomfort with the entire meeting with Jane and the plan her brother hatches. At some point in the scene she catches Doug staring at her breasts. (sidenote I think this might be the only time the word "breasts" appears in any FNAF book, just a strange inclusion for a series about murder pizza bears)

This is strange characterization for a fan favorite character in the original film, and nothing in the film would lead you to expect this kind of thing from him.

Sidenote here in the book Ness (Matpat's character) is said to be the son of the owner of Sparky's and the book describes him as an "Auburn-haired teen" which is a funny thing to call a man in his 30s.

Minor nitpick aside I think both the movie and the film are acceptable ways to experience the plot, some of the things I thought were weird could just have been my knowledge of the films events changing my perspective.

I also enjoy the reinstatement of some of the elements from earlier screenplays and earlier cuts of the film that we know about from various cast members. The father son relationship of Hank and Carl and Garrett appearing in the archway before The Yellow Rabbit appears being some examples.

The book is also way more gorey then the film was, to my surprise. I was almost shocked at the end of the book where both Vanessa and Mike are in a pool of their own blood, the FNAF books have always gone a little harder with the gore then the games have but I guess I wasn't expecting it because of how much of a blockbuster the film was. You know with all the eyes on everything FNAF movie related, but I'm happy to say the FNaF movie novelization keeps with the tradition of surprisingly bloody Scholastic published books.

I quite enjoyed my time with this book, if you haven't read it and wanna give it a go after watching the movie, I'd say it's a worthwhile read. I also read it pretty quickly, but it might have something to do with me already knowing the plot so I didn't have to let it sink in as much

Hi! I have seen your post where you need ideas for a yandere fan fiction. What about a stepbrother yandere where you bring your boyfriend home and they killed your boyfriend without you finding out about it.

SUNOO BIRTHDAY SPECIAL YANDERE ONESHOT :

HIM KILLING YOUR BOYFRIEND

⌦ Pairing : sunooxreader!

⌦ Genre : yandere

⌦ Warning : yandere behaviour , toxicity , killing , curse words

⌦ A/n : thank you for your request , I decided to make this a sunoo oneshot since it was his birthday <3 hope you like it ^^

⌦ Disclaimer : I don't support any yandere behaviours . This is all a work of fiction and my imagination . Credits of the GIFs to the owners . None of the members have the same personality or resonate the traits mentioned below .

You were a really bubbly person , just like your step brother sunoo . At first you hated the thought of your mom marrying someone else but then you agreed because you saw how happy she was . It was a win-win situation because you enjoyed sunoo's company . You were really lonely at times and you had no other choice then to study or watch some shows as your mother had office work and you were the only child . When you shifted at your step dad's house , you were introduced to sunoo who happily smiled at you and have you a tour to the house . When sunoo first saw you he felt something in his chest . Shrugging the feeling he acted as if nothing happened and continued to talk to you and offered you a tour to the house . He showed you the room that will now be yours and you were jumping up and down from happiness because it was your favourite colour and your mother had told you you could decorate it however you wanted . You already had ideas in your mind which excited you more . Sunoo couldn't help but chuckle at your adorable behaviour . He found you absolutely cute and it made him want to trap you in his arms forever . He was smiling looking at you taking out some decorations from your bag when he heard your phone ring . Peeking at the caller ID , his blood started boiling when he saw "love <3" on it . You had a boyfriend ? Wait but why is all this bothering sunoo ? All this shouldn't happen . He should be happy for you and all these feelings are wrong . Days started going , you introduced your boyfriend to your family . Everyone loved him and trusted him except one person . Sure you can guess who it is . Sunoo was annoyed everytime he came over and he would have to see you two cuddle in the living room while he sat at the corner . Days turned into months and sunoo couldn't take it anymore .

Fuck it , you will be his and no one can take you away . All he has to do is get rid of your stupid boyfriend , and you will have no one but him . He'll comfort you and make you believe that he is the only one you need . It was yet another day your boyfriend came over . You were making something in the kitchen . Sunoo was in his room and your boyfriend sat at the dining table scrolling in his phone . Sunoo came down silently signalling your boyfriend to follow him without letting you know . He brought him into his room and instantly stabbed him 5 times while covering his mouth " shut up you bastard , y/n cannot hear this screams . You took her away from me and now your facing the consequences . Goodbye , have fun in hell . Say hello to Satan from my side " with that your boyfriend fell limp on the ground . Sunoo was just so happy that this needle was finally out his way . He called one of his friends and told him to drop your boyfriend's body at his house . Before handing the body he took his phone and messages you that he was going home bcoz if down serious work . Slipping the phone in his pocket , sunoo's friend grinned at him "now we're the same buddy" sunoo laughed and bid him farewell . While downstairs you finished cooking a great meal for you , your boyfriend and sunoo . You walked out of the kitchen to find nobody there , just the television on . You called out his name but there was no response . Sunoo came down with headphones on his ear . "Sunoo-yah" he smiled at you taking the headphones off . "Yes y/n ? Is the food ready . I'm starving" "yes it's ready, but have you seen (your boyfriend) ?" Yup , just disposed his body , he thought "uhh no , I was just in my room and he didn't come there , call him and ask him" "oh right wait a minute , nvm he messaged me that he went home bcoz of some work . It's strange he never did this before" "then it might be really important , let's just eat" you were both going to the dining table when the news playing on the TV shocked you . It was your boyfriend laying dead in his house . Tears flowed out if your eyes while you kept repeating " no it's not true , he can't be dead " . Sunoo hugged your shaking form and was comforting you . You fell asleep after some time , with red puffy eyes and dried tears on your cheek . More months passed by and now you both were so close that you actually slept in the same bed sometimes , cuddling after watching a horror movie which scared the crap out of you . Sunoo was on cloud nine " just a few more weeks and then I'll ask you out , there's no way you'll say no and we can finally be together forever " his planned worked .

Congratulations that you got the ticket to the Taylor swift concert. I am so happy for you.

Actually, this the reason why I wanted to send you an ask before seeing that post. There is some usa tiktoker who are saying things like:

"How dare she do that for Latin America, she should make them cheap for us too"

Or

Seeing comment from people from Latin America begging American to let them have a chance at seeing her in a concert and that even if the prices of those concert seem cheap to them, in reality they are not and still you would have people say "I don't care, if I can afforade it, damn well I m booking a flight to Mexico for her concert, I don't care"

I am curious to hear an opinion of local.

Hi love! I'm thankful for the opportunity, I've been a Swiftie since 2014 and this is my very first chance to see her. I'm thankful that my family can afford it for me and did the sacrifice for me. Because, maybe this is surprising for people from other countries but despite the tickets being "affordable" for us, Argentinians, its A BUNCH OF MONEY. I understand that not everybody understand the situation, the COMPLEX economical and social situation of Argentina and it's ok. We are not the center of the universe and I do not expect all Americans to understand. TO CLARIFIED, this is not a personal attack TO ANYONE, not you, not those swifites, NOONE. This is just me, explaining how it feels FOR ME. I'll be quick, being angry at Taylor for what she did about the prices in Latin-American is not even the minimum amount of research and sadly... highly privileged. First of all, lets start with numbers. Argentinian average salary in dollars per month is ....200$ -300$ dollars...USA is 6k$.... The tickets were around from 50 dollars more on less to 300$....an entire to 1/4 of a salary here. If she would have charged the same considering that our income is not ever CLOSE to an USA one... no one would have been able to pay it. Plus the 50$ tickets were behind the scenario, basically you would just listen to the music. Second, the costs of the scenario, the background people, technicians etc. who will work in the stadium won't charge the same as American's staff because... simply Argentinian salaries are way lower. So the whole "cost" for her would be lower. Third, Argentinian ticket system was just ... better. For buying you did not only need an Argentinian ID but also that ID had to be correlated to the owner of the card who was going to pay and the data of the account had to correlate to the email of the owner of the card. Basically... you needed to be Argentinian and be the owner so the reselling would be way harder. I'm sorry about all the American Swifties who suffered the insane thing that Ticketmaster was, Allaccess had to process 2 MILLION of people in queue in less than 10 HOURS and yet it worked, slowly but it did. Finally, this is a little more personal point of view.... Argentina has over 8% of MONTHLY INFLATION... the inflation that countries who are saying to be in "a crisis" have the annual inflation that Argentina has in A MONTH. We have over 100% of ANNUAL inflation. Last huge devaluation a month ago, Supermarkets closed because they refused to sell because the prices were going up so fast that it was better not selling that selling cheap. I'm sorry that our tickets are cheaper, I'm sorry that this may be the only happiness we can have in a country were our salaries value 10% less each month. Coming from a person who had to cut half of the food tray's I was given by university to save for dinner so I could study and help my family. I'm moving aboard to be able to send money home and help my mom to finally rest and not overwork herself. This is nothing against you or any swifties. But this is literally the meme of "Everything is for you... this tiny little thing... is for me. I'm sorry that you're not the main focus right now, just let me have this for this time,"

Woahwoahwoah okay. I say in a very recent post you got an ftm stroker? What is this??? I'm nonbinary and have had EXTREME gender dysphoria lately, this sounds like exactly what I need

Okay SO! Guess more education is in order!

An FTM stroker is essentially just what it sounds like: a stroker for those who id as FTM, trans men, transmasc, AFAB, nonbinary, or otherwise have clits that take(or do not take) testosterone! They are made to simulate a fleshlight-like experience with suction, penetration, and sometimes can be believable. This can simulate penetrating someone or getting a blowjob, depending on what you're looking for. I believe this was brought about by a one Buck Angel, a trans man who is also a pornstar(to the best of my knowledge)! Strokers were kind of cobbled together before but Buck's ideas really brought it together in a nice package. Since then, many people have moved away from the material that toy is made of(TPE), because it's not technically body safe, and there's a lot of alternatives, but I believe Buck Angel was kind of the first to do this and market it as a SPECIFIC FTM stroker.

Lemme give you some examples!

(Gonna put a readmore here so that Tumblr doesn't ban me for i m a g es yanno? You know.)

This is what an ftm stroker might look like! This is the one I have. This one was made for those who have lots of bottom growth from HRT, a phenomenon where the clitoris grows due to the hormones that your body is receiving. Unfortunately, I do not have as much growth yet, and it was too big for me. HOWEVER, many have thought of those of us who can't go on HRT, choose not to, or don't have our desired growth yet!

This is the Kiss-X sleeve, an FTM stroker invented for those who have little or no bottom growth! They are INCREDIBLE things! I plan to get one eventually, when I can afford to splurge on a new toy, but FTM strokers tend to be rather cheap since they are relatively small, as far as sex toys go. There are many smaller versions available for those who are pre-t! The Kiss-X is by no means the only one, but again, was kind of a pioneer in the industry.

"But I have dysphoria!" You may say! "What if that becomes too much and I can't use it because it doesn't look like the real thing?" Or maybe you don't like the look of plain old black and white, and want something fancier like fun colorful toys.

Well THAT, my friend, is why different shapes exist.

Ya got ones that look like dicks.

Ya got ones that look colorful and shiny.

Ya got ones that look like shiny colorful dicks! Literally the world of FTM strokers is just as vast and wild as the world of dildos and fleshlights. You can even support smaller businesses by looking into handmade ones by independent business owners, usually other transmasc/nonbinary people themselves trying to help others.

Here's some resources for you!

There's loads more(pun not intended) resources online! I highly reccomend you look into it, since I think it could help you! These are not talked about enough, and they SHOULD be! And unlike toys marketed towards clitoris stimulation, these avoid feminine language and packaging that might cause unpleasant dysphoria. They're relatively cheap too, compared to other toys(I got mine for about 20$ while my vibrator i got a while back cost me 50+$), so they're pretty readily accessible!

I hope that helps :D

The sign reads, "The Murderbot Diaries is the only representation many peopl have ever seen of touch-averse and aroace characters actually being treated with respect instead of being treated like problems that need to be fixed. Erasing the fact that Murderbot is aroace and repulsed by all forms of relationships and hates being touched is amisic and ableist as absolute fuck."

End ID.]

You want me to stop calling out the bigotry in this fandom? Then stop forcing me to be the only one calling this shit out. If you aren't aroace, if you aren't repulsed by all forms of fucking relationships, if you aren't touch-averse, if you don't use it/its pronouns, then actually prove you're an ally to the people Murderbot actually represents and start making your own posts calling this shit out.

If the only people in your fandom calling out bigotry are the people who are personally impacted by that bigotry, then your fandom is not a safe or welcoming space.

Murderbot is aroace. It uses it/its pronouns. It is romance and sex repulsed and it is touch-averse.

If you actually want this fandom to be welcoming to people that Murderbot actually represents, then prove it. Actually make this fandom hostile to amisics and ableists. Actually make posts condemning aand ableism and supporting aroace relationship-repulsed and touch-averse people.

I've been trying to figure out if I should comment here again - I've been debating whether or not it will make things worse, or if it's worth commenting instead of just reading all of these assumptions and false information and just letting people assume. I've had a contentious relationship with this blog and others in the past, and I really just want to enjoy what's left to DV in peace. I decided to write this post and maybe participate more actively in any conversation surrounding me in the hopes that I might be able to diffuse any tension and stop people from spreading false info. I have had a couple MB (moon bunny) trades from bunnies 1-10ish where folks had traded their halves in advance. These people actually offered it without me prompting, and I also made them aware that there's a waitlist. If there was any issue, I truly would have hoped that any of these users might have reached out to me before coming to this blog. I believe in updating the people who are invested in my trades, and I have 5ish update notes I sent out to everyone who had a trade with me over the course of waiting for the moon bunnies to arrive. Nobody has messaged me to complain about my trades or the ID numbers they've received. If anyone is unhappy with their side of the trade, please please reach out to me so that I may fix it. To the person slandering me on here without having actually spoken to me at all; it's really hurtful, and I really wish you would stop. I traded for a croc a couple weeks ago - this was a legitimate trade. The croc owner was not on my waitlist by mistake. There have been a couple custom owners who reached out to me because I had forgotten to put them on the list, and the croc owner is one of them that I had forgotten to add. I don't ask for payment up front, but if someone offers it, I don't say no. Again, if anyone is unhappy with a trade, please reach out to me - I'm sure we can work something out, whether I hatch another bun for you and swap them, etc. As to the comments about me trading my Luna's likeness away; I don't view it this way. I brought Luna to this site so that he can live on in some way, and to share an adorable pixel of him with the community. Luna was a very loving bunny, and he also loved attention - so I know he'd be happy to know that all of his little minions are being loved and fed (food was one of his favorite things). I'm in no way saying that memorial customs are good or bad, or whether they should be allowed - just that this is what I intended for the MBs, and I'm happy with it. I've come to peace with not having control over the bunnies after they leave my burrow. But before they do, I make sure they're super lucky so that Luna can bring a little luck to everyone he meets. So far, everyone I've traded with has been neutral or happy to have +3 luck MBs in these trades. Nobody has said anything to me otherwise - I've had two people ask me if they could hatch, and I've said no to both. I believe they were good-faith asks to genuinely help me with the list.

I don't let others hatch the MBs because I don't trust people to keep them all +3 luck. Considering some people on here have very strong opinions about my 3L MBs (weird stance, but sure) and getting to hatch their own. There's also significantly more important topics here than me (why is it October with no summer event??), and I beg you to find something else to entertain yourselves. I don't like being the topic of conversation - I am very shy and avoid attention whenever possible in real life. I think two and a half years is enough time to analyze my actions on a petsite, don't you think? And yes... my original Karen post was not great. That's why I promptly deleted it, but not before someone had screenshotted it on the 3 minutes it was up and posted it on the original blog. To provide context to that (keep in mind this was two and a half years ago) - my abusive manager kept calling me a karen whenever he felt he needed to undermine any legitimate concerns I had about things going on in the company. I eventually left the company. IDK if any of this will help or make things worse, but my silence didn't make it stop so I figured why not give this a try.

so before in a post you said your parents had an autistic friend who helped when you got your diagnosis, this question is semi related to that -(maybe 😋)

(some parts are bold if the paragraphs are to wordy cramps)

as an autistic teen, what resources help you the most??how or where did your parents find these resources?? Asking because my parents and me (and no one) is given some sort of autism guide when you get a diagnosis,,,

cw aba mention

there having me try ABA (which scares me but gonna try and see ? Theyve already hurt my ears)

cw over

more specifically maybe like what therapies/accommodations help you ? how do you and other people adjust to communicate with AAC and have them respect you ?? resources like your disability ID card and stuff,,

a summary is: where are you and your family finding these resources to help you ??? 😂 me and my family are at a loss !

(To those reading this: anon is from the US, if you're from the US and think you can help and maybe guide anon, feel free to comment on this ask! Follower or not, it doesn't matter! 😁)

There's a German online forum called "REHA kids"; it's primarily for parents (abled or disabled) who have disabled kids. And a great German blog (ellasblog); the owner is a mum of a high support needs autistic, she helps parents finding their way around in the German law system because this can be really overwhelming - autistics are absolutely welcome to share their point of view, especially if they're higher support needs.

Maybe there are similar online resources in the US? Online forums where you or your parents can find information about how things work in your state and what to pay attention to?

Important: Sometimes you're "bound" to a therapy center or something because it's the law. I'm in an "autism therapy center" and I'm supposed to stay there until I'm either old enough or I officially don't need help anymore. My parents thought it's important to make me go to therapists outside of this facility, so that if it should ever happen that the therapy center suggests something I really don't want, I can show them a doctor's note from a professional who proves that what they suggest absolutely isn't necessary and that I'm actually doing fine. If the doctor's note proves that something isn't necessary, the insurance won't cover it and they're only allowed to do things that are covered by the insurance. German loophole 😄

What other therapies I had/have: Speech therapy, music therapy, social skills training, sensory integration therapy. Maybe more, the autism center adjusts the therapy plan to the individual, so sometimes occupational therapy is beneficial, sometimes sensory integration, sometimes simply painting a rainbow with finger paint 🤷🏻‍♀️ (no joke)

Regarding AAC and my disability ID card: I had my card before I had my autism diagnosis because I was developmentally delayed and had brain damage, but I think in the US you don't have those cards. The ministry of social affairs is responsible for that in my federal state, they regularly reassess me. I had my first AAC device before I entered school, but I also learned German Sign Language. After a while I got more and more fluent in typing and faster in responding, so at some point I decided that I only want to type, and now I simply use text to speech.

I think that's all I can say without being too unrelatable because everything else is how things work in Germany and not in the US, that wouldn't be of much use 🤔

Again to people from the US: Please share in the comments how things work in your state and if you have any advice for anon!

OOC POST GO!

Just putting this out there

If anyone in the family ever wants to go ooc with me, they're more than welcome to

For any reason

I love you all very much, and your characters made my life genuinely better

It would be a massive honor to meet the people behind them, for any reason.

You need my support? If I can offer any help? Anything I can do, in a heartbeat.

Sad to say but Cheese isn't all that much of a character, they're more... An ideal version of me who isn't human.

I abandoned my old Tumblr bc my irl siblings follow it, and I don't want my actual family seeing what I'm up to. They aren't very supportive in a lot of ways. I still love them, and they love me, but I can't be my real self around them. I can do that here. I'm accepted here. While Cheese is a bit crazier than I am, and a lot cooler, who tf wouldn't wanna be cooler than they really are?

But again, point is

I'm here for all of my family. No matter what you're going through. I'm socially anxious as fuck, dms are hard for me. Starting conversations is hard. But if you ever want like, my discord ID, just ask. We can go ooc, I'm happy to have you in my chats anytime. You're an important part of my life and happiness, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Since I started Cheese in late September, I've been through a lot of shit, but the stupid RP found family has helped me stay sane.

If I could return that favor to any of you, in any way, I'd gladly do so. I may not be able to help much, but I'd do what I can. This page, and it's owner, are a safe place for you and your needs. No judgement to be had, no hatred.

Sorry to get sappy n shit, have a good morning/day/afternoon/evening/night.

I'm always here. Even in hiatus, I'll be here to respond to DMs. My door is always open.

Hi hello, I'm the owner of @horrormogai (Mod Vega this time!) and jsyk, I tag all my posts with stuff like #needs ID, #needs PT, etc and often put PTs on posts that don't have a PT! Because I am also someone who also struggles severely with paranoia about being seen as a bad person, I wanted to let you know this is just something I do for accessibility and not like, me saying you're bad for not adding these things! Just in case something like that might trigger you! /genuine

I have a hard time adding PTs and IDs to most of my own coinings on my main mogai blog so i def get it lsfdhg /keyboard smash. I hope you have a lovely timezone, pls be safe! <3 /platonic (also not putting this on anon in case you're more comfy answering privately, hope thats fine!)

Hello! I'm quite confused on this, I hope I didn't do anything wrong!/lh I'm quite slow on understanding and I just woke up and I see this and I am very confused/lh/nm I'm sorry if i did something wrong/srs/lh

April 23, 1922 Bringing Up Father by George McManus

TOP PANEL [ID: Jiggs sits on a streetlamp - one that bifurcates at the top and holds a lamp on either side. Jiggs sits in between the two lamps, atop the pole. He smokes a cigar and happily reads a piece of paper. /end]

MAIN COMIC [ID: Jiggs sits on a houseboat in the harbor, talking with Dinty Moore and a boat captain pal of his. /end] Dinty Moore: Comin' to the Steamfitters' Ball tonight, Jiggs? Captain: You don't want to miss that. Everybody you know will be there! Jiggs: I'd love to go but I'm afraid I can't git out.

[ID: A man in a grey suit walks up on the dock and leans on a mooring post. /end] Dinty: Look who's here! Captain: If it isn't Spike Grogan. When did you git out? Grogan: I got out fer good behavior this afternoon!

[ID: Spike steps onto the deck of the ship. The gang marvels at a bejeweled clip on his tie. /end] Dinty: Where'd you git the sparkler? Jiggs: I'll bet the real owner is unconcious now! Grogan: Comin' up from jail in the trolley, I noticed it on an old gink with whiskers.

[ID: Jiggs stands aloof in front of an angry Maggie, lounging on the couch. /end] Jiggs: Maggie, kin I go to the Steamfitters' Ball tonight? Maggie: How vulgar. I should say not. I'm giving a reception, so you'd better get dressed!

[ID: Maggie haughtily greets her guests, an aristocratic society couple. Jiggs looks on from the doorway, unimpressed. /end] Maggie: How do you do, Mrs. Goof! Mrs. Goof: Did you hear what happened to my husband? A thief stole his beautiful scarf pin today. Jiggs: That's Grogan's work!

[ID: Jiggs takes Mr. Goof to the bottom of his entry staircase and whispers conspiratorially to him. /end] Jiggs: Say, I'll tell you what I'll do. If you'll tell my wife we're goin' to police headquarters, I think I kin git your pin back! Mr. Goof: A wise idea!

[ID: Jiggs walks up the sidewalk with Mr. Goof, approaching the stoop of a meeting house. /end] Mr. Goof: Is this police headquarters? Jiggs: No, this is the Steamfitters' Ball. But there will be lots of police here!

[ID: Jiggs approaches Grogan and points out the purloined pin. Grogan stands apologetically. /end] Jiggs: Is that your sparkler? Grogan: Gee! I didn't know he wuz a friend of yours, Jiggs! Mr. Goof: Yes, that's mine and if he'll give it back, we'll say no more about it.

[ID: Jiggs and Mr. Goof move to the foyer of the party. /end] Jiggs: Now you can run back an' tell 'em I'm goin' to take the crook to jail. Mr. Goof: Indeed not. I've been trying all day to get away just to come to this ball. I like to study these affairs, but my wife doesn't approve!

[ID: Maggie sits on a wooden chair while Mrs. Goof languishes on the couch. /end] Mrs. Goof: My husband has such queer ideas. He wanted to go to some Steamfitters' Ball, but I talked him out of it. He likes to write about it. Maggie: [thought bubble with a picture of a sunrise]

[ID: Maggie and Mrs. Goof enter the meeting hall and stand in a doorway above the dance floor. In the crowd of wild dancers, they spot Jiggs and Mr. Goof. /end] Maggie: There they are, the brutes!

[ID: Jiggs and Mr. Goof lie side-by-side, badly injured and tucked into bed. Jiggs has a black eye and a bandaged cheek while Mr. Goof has a bandage tied around his head. /end] Jiggs: If I hadn't lost my senses, we could have sneaked out in that battle! Mr. Goof: Yes, and I lost my pin again in that crowd!

[ID: a post from @ davidgate_ on Instagram

"The real multiverse is not the other side of a sci-fi story mechanic but it is all the lives we live at once: mother, daughter, partner, business owner, immigrant & citizen of the state who fills out tax forms. Somewhere in the gaps between those lives are the crumpled expectations of the dreams that once animated us. One thing becomes inevitable: all the different versions of ourself must reconcile. That can happen either by floating into the bagel-shaped void or by accepting we live within a life shaped by the consequences of all our decisions—everything, everywhere, all at once. We can feel crushed by the outcomes from a life's worth of decisions weighing upon us, but they are not as heavy as the weight of the choices that we now face. Who am I going to be? What shall I become? I know who I want to be and that didn't happen. But I don't have to be stuck here. I can still disrupt the pattern. I can say sorry. I can name the desires unfulfilled. I can cherish what I have. I can forgive myself—a million different versions of myself—a million times over."
