omggggGGGG HI YOU'RE BACK i love your art!! your designs for the characters are so inspiring and unique!! and your art style is just so well-suited to the silmarillion <3 my question is, do you have any headcanons about edrahil? he's my favorite underrated blorbo!

HIIIII long time no see indeed!!! thank you so much for your kind words 😭 it means a lot to hear that you like my designs and my art style! im always brawling with how much im trying to tone out the anime influences and adopt a more... 'realistic'(?) style that it ends up being a giant game of mental gymnastics on most days haha 😂 im still figuring it out, but your words are a great reassurance so i am very grateful for them!!!! 🙇‍♀️

onto your question-- edrahil!! he's definitely one of the blorbos that doesn't get enough attention 😤 i would be lying if i said that im not guilty of this too, since i think ive only ever read... one? fic with him in it waa.... but as always with the professor's work, great fun comes from the freedom with which one can interpret the minor characters! here's one of the first doodles i did of him when i got your ask:

the bread and butter of my male characters always ends up being slender bishonen-types, but one of my goals going forth is to try and adapt myself to not falling to same face syndrome in the future, so i thought itd be fun to start by making edrahil swoler than usual on a whim 🙈 based on his one (1) line the book, he strikes me as a steadfast i will follow my liege to my death type of fellow.... and then it snowballed from there.... and that's how my take on edrahil eventually evolved from stoic-man-who-is-also-a-peerless-warrior into a no-thoughts-head-empty-his-majesty-only bodyguard

i like to think he's much nicer than he lets on and nowhere near as serious as his RBF may suggest! much like the rest of finrod's personal guard (aka his fanclub), their lord's wellbeing and public image come first above anything else. perhaps their strong loyalty should be concerning, but it's finrod i-befriend-Men-and-swear-eternal-oaths-of-friendship felagund we're talking about.... so maybe theyve got their own reasons too lmao

this is getting a bit rambly (IM SORRY) but one extra comic and final thoughts under the cut!

thank you again for your kind ask AND this fabulous prompt!! im guilty of devoting too much of my obsession onto the feanorians, so i always appreciate side character prompts to get the lil squirrel wheel in my brain spinning 💖 i hope this is a satisfactory answer, and that you have a great rest of your week!!

#silmarillion #rin replies #solmarillion #finrod #edrahil #comic was inspired by a danny gonzalez skit where a rich guy has a friend constantly rag on him to keep him humble #(if you know which vid im referencing: 👀👀) #except it backfires in finrods case cause edrahil would NEVER speak ill of his liege (and sees no reason to) #to finrod's guards his ability to wear nice clothes and look great while doing so is his valar-given right LMAO #the next time i draw edrahil... he will be swoler..... jojo level swole.... this isnt enough.... #i should do a serious take one day but its much more tempting to do goofy stuff #the silmarillion #the silmarillion fanart #silm #nargothrond #celegorm #curufin #finrod and his guardsmen #finrod felagund #noldor #elves #lotr elves #silm art #sakasakart #orodreth #headcanons #sketch dump #textual ghosts

Telling content creators it's wrong to explore artistic freedom and be independently funded by fans, and they should instead continue taking advertisement revenue from google* is

NOT

the anti-capitalism stance actually.

#Watcher #This post is specifically and exclusively about the people who seem to have the capitalism bit wrong #It's almost fascinating how no one is hearing themselves speak #I feel like some of you don't understand WHY we support small businesses and are anti-monopoly #I've seen multiple posts saying “Shane is so anti-capitalism there's no way this was his idea.” #So... you think it's pro-capitalism to start your own business instead of relying on pennies from the exploitative mega-corporation? #Guys... we support small businesses KNOWING it will cost the consumer more #Stop thinking you're entitled to someone's product #That's what got us in this mess #I understand $6 is a lot for many many people but that is what makes certain things a luxury #Nothing used to be this way #Nothing used to be “free” so you can be monitored for your viewing habits and sold to advertisers #If you see a little guy trying to leave youtube/google and you paint them as the capitalist???

had a really incredible moment this evening. went to my campus art market where one of my friends was selling the tank top i'm wearing - another friend bought it for me and i'm so overjoyed to have it. usually a fit that leans more Traditionally Masculine feels like a costume but tonight it just felt deeply correct and honest and warm. took the opportunity to take some indulgent little pictures because i do not think i have Ever looked more like myself. so happy.

#im like. slowly gently exploring butchness & ... what it means to me & ... trying to release the idea that it requires Masculinity.... #ive always felt pretty disconnected from masculinity as a whole but i'm starting to find points of entry that resonate really deeply #& along with that is like... esp when it comes 2 kink & leather & butchness - which r not intrinsically related but to me they r connected #theres this idea that like. i'm taking myself too seriously. and that nobody's gonna take me seriously. and that i'm too little too young #that im like #obviously inexperienced and a joke and failing and looking stupid . #but ... realized recently that . that's really just the trauma talking #and that i can just like. try shit out. and notice how it feels + what comes up #and then try it again if i so wish #and nothing i try has to be permanent or defining ... and that like . my desires and comforts and joys and needs Should Be Taken Seriously #soooo much of my like. impostor syndrome . has to do with worrying that im not doing it right when compared to other men #but like.... most of the kinky men / leathermen i see are 35+ and cis . #of course im not doing it like them . #so . looking to the queers i know. especially my fellow transmascs as well as lesbians . for like. reassurance and inspiration #has been very healing . & good for my heart & my soul. #:) #yeah . #i think i gotta go read butch is a noun. ... yeah #goodnight :) #speak #materialization #ok2rb

I have this scene playing over and over in my head of Lester’s spotty memory making him forget English for a little bit. Like in the mornings when he wakes up he defaults to Ancient Greek since that’s his first language and Meg has no idea what he’s saying. And the first time it happens it’s like:

Lester: Tι κάνουμε σήμερα? (What are we doing today?)

Meg: What?

Lester: Τι? (What?)

Meg: What are you saying?

Lester: Μόλις έκανα μια ερώτηση. (I just asked a question.)

Meg: Can you understand me?

Lester: Μέγαρα τι διάολο λες? (Meg, what the hell are you talking about?)

This goes on for a bit until Lester realizes he is actually not speaking in the English language, and he has to spend a bit rewiring his brain to get back into the groove.

Also just having moments where Lester speaks slower, or takes more time to articulate himself bc he’s having to translate from Ancient Greek to English in his head and he isn’t able to do it quickly when his memory is bad. Like, English is probably his 50th language or something, he’d definitely struggle with it a lot once he doesn’t have godly perfection backing him up.

ALSO LESTER WITH A GREEK ACCENT. THAT IS ALL.

#this is inspired by me understanding Spanish but taking 5 hours to put together a single sentence <3 #also I had to use modern Greek instead of ancient bc my translator wasn’t working so boo #the point still stands #trials of apollo #toa apollo #lester papadopoulos #meg mccaffrey #sunny speaks #headcanons

Look, look. It's not my fault I wrote 998 words on Wayne comfort. Or I'm giving it to you anonymously. Just think of me as the neighborhood feral cat giving you a dead bird for all the nice head scratches. I don't have enough guts to post my writing on my blog since I'm new to Tumblr. So please enjoy this comfort, slight nsfw fic at the end. Your writing has been inspiring me, so you deserve this. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭👍

You had just been laying on the couch that was undoubtedly worth more than anything you ever owned in your previous life. Anyone rich can buy a uncomfortable and presumptuous piece of high quality furniture, but finding one that looks this nice and feels great too is a special skill. The nice buttery leather was encasing you like a hug that you sunk into as you struggled with being awake. To make matters worse, you had grabbed one of the bloated pieces of Victorian literature off the shelf in the library. You fully intended to give it up at first sign it got hard. Then Todd challenged you on whether you could read and gather it's plot without help. He wasn't saying you were stupid, but you still heard it hanging in the air after he shuffled out of the room. You really hate being called stupid.

That's how Damian found you, lounging on the couch and half dozing as the sun and fireplace chased away the chill. Damian was also tired for another reason, he had spent all night on watch and was finally showing signs of tiring like a normal human. And there you were, all nice and cozy in silk pajamas, even though it was cold outside, you had long discarded your sweater and changed into shorts. Ever since you complained about the cold in the Manor, Bruce had raised the heating to a nice summer day.

It didn't bother Damian at all, especially when he got to see the way your pajama shirt rode up in your tossing and turning on the couch.

The sudden weight made your breath wheeze out and you lifted the book off your chest to peer down at Damian. In no time he settled himself between your open and splayed legs, hooking his massive arms underneath your knees and slightly under your bum so that he can wiggle closer to your navel. Your eyes widen and you almost squealed at him. Especially as his warm breath started warming your stomach.

Then you saw how his eyes dropped, and he slightly nuzzled into you before going slack. Your eyes traced the planes of his face as they slowly smoothed out from sleepiness.

"What are you reading", Damian slurs out, his voice heavy and deep from contentment.

"Some meaningless Victorian novel, everyone is so emotionally stunted it's hilarious" you hum out.

He doesn't respond and you cautiously close the book and rest it on your chest. His breaths were coming in deep now, having finally lost the battle when you started ranting about your arch nemesis book.

You take another moment to appreciate the softness that was missing from his face usually. Brows slack, not furrowed in rage or disgust. Nose not scrunched up from sneering. Cheeks puffed out slightly from sleep as his mouth pops open to let out the softest snore. This was Damian, the version you longed for. And ever so softly and gently, you run your hands through the silky but forbidden hair.

That's how Dick found you two hours later. Only your shirt had crept up more as you settled into sleep. Most importantly, Damian had slid down as he stretched slightly in his sleep, one of his hands crawling up underneath your ass and to fan out across the side of your ribs. This movement unconsciously moved you more in your sleep as you curled protectively around the weight on you. Your hands still buried in his hair.

Now though, Damian's face was buried in your pelvis, way too close to the goal for Dick. Older brother slapping younger brother in the calf to get the rotten bastard to wake up. Which he succeeded in.

Just for Damian to give Dick a shit-eating smirk as you mumbled in your sleep from the jostling. To rub his position in his brother's face even more, Damian leans over to give the lightest kiss to your inner upper thigh that was so tantalizingly close. Cue both Dick and Tim who just walked in having a collective mind blown explosion.

Needless to say there were a lot of harsh slaps and pathetic "ow"s as they wrenched him out from you as best they could without waking you. It didn't really work as Damian's stray hand slid back down as both held your ass for dear life. He buried himself even closer to you as your thighs clenched around him and you let out the littlest of moans in your sleep. Something that had both brothers dropping Damians legs and scurrying away with beet red faces while Damian flicked them off.

When you woke, Damian was sitting up in the chair with your legs on his lap and your discarded book being held precariously in his long calloused fingers. He looks down at you as you let out a delicious sounding moan as you stretch the sleep off. It wasn't as good as the one you let out earlier though, he needs that one again. Soon.

"You know it's not the Brontë sisters fault you're stupi-" he didn't get to finish as your foot slams the book into the side of his stupid gorgeous asshole face.

Took me a while to answer this because I didn't even know what to say. It's perfect it's fantastic it's amazing and I'm genuinely begging you to write more. The assholishness. The clingy desperation. The way both reader and Damian are so obviously in love with eachother but can only manage to get along long enough to touch. The little hints to the other relationships. The TENSION. All of it. All of it is amazing and wonderful and gorgeous and I'm dying on the floor. AAAAAAAA

#sophie speaks #series:www #AMAZED my own writing could ever inspire something like this #stunned gobsmacked bulderdashed #this is so absolutely absurdly amazing and its a fanfic of MY fanfic #that has 12k words #im sorry i need to go im going to vomit #pass out #actually shaking the mental illness is doing badly #another i need to take my meds moment

I should be forbidden from writing fics that take place in a school setting because im much too deep in it to take any of it lightly. Me and brother are galaxybraining a tlt college au and ive gone so far off the rails..... tell me why im out here mapping out what courses theyll all be taking. literally who gives a shit about what classes SILAS OCTAKISERON is in. why have I given the courses course codes. why am I making sure each line of education makes sense throughout the years. come on. its much too much already I need to Calm Down

#this is exactly like what happened with that carry on dance class fic I was writing #(ill come back to it some day I swear) #henrietta write something that isn't school centered challenge #<-- (im losing) #also its very deeply inspired by multiple maroon 5 songs #by multiple I mean all of them #we are not fans we just live in the countryside. its what happens #griddlehark #but also #jodybeth #and some really pathetic #harrianthe #but its one sided and is mostly Ianthe gnawing at herself about harrow #nona is there too #we worked her in sooooooooo cleverly #brother feel free to tell me to take this down if you wanna keep keeping it under wraps #im so fucking bored at the school rn because im done with all my stuff essentially #i had to speak my truth #im sorry

"posting this because i NEEEEEED this on my blog" is probably going to be the caption for 95% of the Shin-chan stuff i post BUT IT IS NO LESS TRUE BECAUSE OF IT. Masaaki Yuasa is quickly becoming one of my favorite animators and i want to have easy access to ogle at his work at any time. and i hope for you to do the same! so here's his animation for Ending 3 of the show from 1993

#i enjoyed Devilman Crybaby when it was new and REALLY enjoyed Night is Short Walk On Girl but Shin-chan is my first time seeing him actually #animate rather than as a director/affiliated with Science SARU #AND UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH HE IS SO GOOD I'M SO INSPIRED #Shin-chan has just been so fun to get into truly have not felt this passionate about getting into something since i got into LT/golden age #cartoons #a very happy and unexpected hyperfixation of 2024 #and thank you for coming along on this journey with me i know it outwardly doesn't fit my 'brand' of posting BUT ACTUALLY IT DOES BECAUSE #THE GAGS AND ANIMATION ARE SO GOOD AND SPEAK TO ME SO MUCH. aahhhhhhhhhhhhh #i've literally started taking Japanese lessons on Duolingo so i can watch more episodes that aren't subbed #i have a pretty basic knowledge of Japanese since i was once an anime obsessed 8 year old (thank you Leo Ojamajo Doremi is still treasured #in my heart) so i can make out/infer bits and pieces but it would be great to have a greater understanding and also learn how to read #Hiragana. which i've been learning! slowly #i'll probably be posting more OPs and EDs because they are so good so so good #OP 3 is stuck in my head literally all the time #COME ON BABY COME ON BABY tamanegi tabereru #if you for whatever reason are deterred by my Shin posting then my containment center for it is 'csc' so blacklist that #but hopefully you will not!! #csc #vid

Pro tip: if you are going to lie to your children about Santa Claus, please, BEFORE you do that, think if you have the guts to come clean to them when the time comes.

#yeah this is inspired by family shenanigans #but yeah kid in the family is past the age of knowing #he's asked me multiple times but I'm bound to what his parents want #and they GHOST my messages and avoid talking with me about telling the kid #they are really truly going for the #if we ignore this matter long enough it will go away on its own #if they have any strategy at all #and like it isn't strictly speaking gaslighting the kid #but it breaks my heart and makes me mad #so yeah if you are too cowardly to have that conversation with your kid when they are old enough #then don't lie to them #plain and simple #your kid is not an accessory you can use to revive your childlike wonder and then never take charge of the sour side of it

The Fernweh Saga by @lacunafiction - Davor edition

I-I think Ms. Verner doesn't like him...😳

Davor "Dove" Kovač 🐝 RO: Becca Warrick

Personality: cautious // aloof // pessimistic // flirtatious (only towards Becca ...and Reese??) Traits: head // independent // resistance // believer Past affinity: math Primary ability: extrasensory awareness Past susceptibility: forward. 'it’s better to push forward. don’t look back on the past when you have new places to be and things to achieve.' <<< his motto

🕊️ Fernweh: Davor lived a happy life there and didn't think about leaving in the future. Maybe for some trips, but he knew it would always be his place, his safe place... 'It was a mistake to come back here.' - that was his first thought when he tried to fall asleep on the first night in Fernweh. The nightmares came back as he thought they would. He wants to leave as soon as possible because he feels that it is not safe for Becca to be here.

🕊️ Gramps Dan: That was his gramps who taught Davor how to play the guitar. As a young child, Davor always admired him and believed he was the most intelligent person in the world. After the death of his parents and how his grandfather treated him, he was devastated and angry. He wanted answers soo badly but didn't get any. He lived loathing his grandfather ever since. The news of his passing stirred up a lot of negative emotions that Davor had previously managed to suppress. At the beginning of the story he couldn't care less about his grandfather, but because of his journal he started to believe him. Things that his granfather lived through made Davor even more angry at this messy town …but he's willing to forgive his gramps…

🐝 Becca Warrick: It was a ...funny story that brought both of them together and they look after each other ever since. He considers Becca as his precious (not in a negative-possessive way) treasure, he literally can't let anything bad happen to her. That was also she who came up with the nickname 'Dove'... (and she's literally the only person who calls him that, others wouldn't dare...). He had feelings for her for quite some time but didn't act on it... until now. Although he didn't express it, he felt very nervous about Becca being in the town where he grew up. He was curious (but also scared) about what she could think of this town. He felt like he was revealing more of himself to her…. and he forgot about any worries pretty fast, because the town started being weird as fu--.

🕊️ Reese Verner: Back then Davor was quite cheerful and enjoyed competing with Reese regularly. They teased each other a lot. Davor always thought that Reese had a crush on him, was it true tho? donut know, but he certainly had. ...why does he appear in his nightmares? Maybe the crush stage never disappeared...? Seeing him again was a nice experience, sure... but ignoring the circumstances, he is still unsure if it was worth it and is struggling with his thoughts… Would it be worth it to return to Fernweh just to see him... again? welp, good thing he doesn't have to think about it much, am I right?

🕊️ Sofia Dorran: The two of them maybe did not have a strong relationship, but he knew Sofia is the ideal person for engaging in intelligent conversations. He enjoyed spending time with her, solving the puzzles that gramps created for them both. Davor wasn't a fan of fantasy books, but she managed to change his mind about them. Davor knows that Sofia did take good care of his grandfather, but he still doesn't quite know if he's grateful for that or wished she spent her time more... valuably... He was tempted to ask Sofia to borrow that book she found in his grandfather's bedroom, but he thought better of it. It's better to leave Fernweh… Even so, his curiosity wasn't properly fed.

🕊️ James Corvin: Maybe not brothers by blood, but definitely brothers by choice. Davor treated him as if he was the brother he always wanted to have. Back then Davor always placed a high value on his family… until now. At the time, Davor tended to be more impulsive and James was usually the one who kept him from getting into trouble (which often involved Reese). It was really hard, for both of them, to see each other after so long. Their first interaction was pretty awkward... I would even say that most of their interactions were . James noticed how Davor changed the question is: for the better or worse? I don't even know. Everyone can sense, that things around them are different now, and they aren't as close as before. Will it change?

🕊️ Alek Corvin: …To say that Alek wasn't a fan of Davor would be an understatement. Was it because James spent most of his time focusing only on Davor trying to get him out of trouble? Did Alek observe any possessiveness from Davor towards James? Or maybe simply because of the bond between those two, which was truly something that others would envy and desire? Davor never considered it, especially when he left Fernweh permanently. :)) As you can imagine, Alek doesn't seem very happy about Davor's return… But he took an interest in his new friend, Becca, which did not go unnoticed by Davor and he isn't really happy about it.

🕊️ The Waitress: Oh boy, it seems that Davor has taken up a new hobby, which is glaring harshly at the waitress. He finds her mistrustful and he smells trouble. Had they met when he was younger, there may have been a slim chance of them getting along.

🕊️ Waffles!: So um… Davor has a little issue with dogs and because of that his relationship with Waffles isn't as wonderful as I wish it would be... However, I believe that with time and help from Becca, they will eventually become friends.

#actually about his scar i have this whole headcanon... featuring some...umm.. doggos and Becca... 👀 especially how they met #(Davor was always team cats but after that incident even more xD) #also ouch that naming scene it hurt me so much! but i get it ;; aaaa! Davor why are you being so problematic Waffles is wonderful!!! #it was really interesting for me to messing with Davor in nightmares and showing him Reese!! the feelings the emotions aaaa #also yeeaah Davor thought several times if it would be a good idea to come back to Re-- *cough* Fernweh... and then Becca happened... #generally speaking Davor has a keen interest in Slavic mythologies and culture particularly those from western and southern regions of- #-Europe. I imagine that his father has roots in these regions and he took great pride in his heritage. Often taking about it to Davor #...and since Sofia's a smart girl she lent Davor a fantasy book written by Slavic author who took a great inspiration from Slavic myths👼😊 #yes it was enough to change Davor's mind about fantasy books XD he never really read one before he just assumed it's BORING! #and now I'm sure he will throw questions at Sofia about this book she found even more since he's staying at Fernweh... I can imagine how- #-they both are staying up late studying it and comparing their notes... it would remind Davor about the time they were kids- #-it seems that his Gramps gave them both the last puzzle to solve... will they succeed? #and ooohh that will be a hard time for James and Davor... that rejection at the end of book one wont help them im sure XD #about Davor's 'possesivenes' over James... Davor was needy that's true but he would never think about 'stealing' James from Alek or- #-'claiming' James belongs to him. I hope im not crossing a line here but in my headcanon Alek was TOTALLY jealous over their friendship #and Alek THOUGHT that Davor was receiving more attention from James 👀 #//which obv isn't true because James would never allow it. Alek is always a number one in James' heart// #in mine too I love A!!!! 💖 they're a BABY #but i must say that Davor didn't really think about Alek's feelings back then. he wasn't aware how Alek could feel- that's not an excuse #super curious about book two and how his relationships with every single one of them will develop!!! #fernweh saga #oc: davor kovac #no i totally did NOT change his surname..

Thinking about polyglot Luigi.

Luigi who grows up fluent in English and Italian, yet also picks up words and phrases from the other immigrant families in his neighborhood. Becoming an appreciator of languages and their beauty and complexity.

Choosing Spanish as a class in high school. It has a similar structure to Italian so he learns it rather quickly, easily keeping up in conversations with native speakers. One of the cashiers at the local grocers speaks Portuguese, and he realizes it’s also alike to Italian and Spanish, so he starts learning that too. The cashier is touched and gives him advice and new words whenever he stops by.

He and Mario were into Japanese anime when they were younger, and he’d make the connections between the subtitles and the audio for a while until he started to teach himself properly. While not necessarily too similar, Chinese and Korean came as a natural response. Luigi’s a little nervous trying it out with the neighbors, but they’re impressed at his dedication and assist him as well.

Luigi would get sucked into a language for little to no reason sometimes. Heard a pretty song in French; learn it. Accidentally set a movie’s language to Swedish and didn’t change it; learn it. Friend wanted a buddy to try Arabic together; learn it. Saw a Hindi vocabulary book on sale one day; learn it.

Some languages would stick more than others due to lack of use or resources, but he makes the effort to retain what he does know. Writing notes to himself in Portuguese, quietly insulting people in Arabic, etc. When he’s not with Mario or reading up on plumbing, mechanics or engineering, he’s sprawled out over a language book—mumbling words, highlighting important notes, writing his own examples on the side.

It’s a talent that persists in the Mushroom Kingdom. At a large multi-kingdom event, he’s drawn in by the sounds. Such unique and glorious voices he doesn’t know what to focus on. The sharp and guttural color of the Koopas? The flowing and musical tone coming from the Beanbean group? The staccato and bright sound of the Sarasaland representative? It’s nearly heaven for him.

Luigi spends a lot of time scouring for texts of their language or even writing to their rulers and asking for books himself. They’re all more than happy to oblige, some even setting him up with tutors. He takes to them just as easily as languages from Earth, and it doesn’t take long before he’s endearing himself to the natives with his knowledge of their tongue. It definitely helps him and Mario out a lot on journeys where people may not be as well versed on the common language throughout the worlds.

While he does have his own bookshelf of his own personal collection, Peach decided to invest in a section of the local library dedication to language learning. He loves it. Luigi himself assists with deciding what to choose and which books would be the most useful. He even teaches some of the toads when he gets the chance to.

TLDR; Just, Luigi knowing a bunch of languages and people adoring him for it.

#inspired by me attempting (and usually failing) to learn more than two languages at a time #do people in the mk and beyond speak the lang over the viewer. yes but realistically they should have their own individual lang #also google said polyglots can speak some 6-12 langs so i’m taking that and running #luigi #luigi nintendo #super mario bros #super mario brothers

#pizza tower #fake peppino #polls #I am apparently unusual for having him speak Italian through a cipher #because I think it makes him more incomprehensible #but I also have him being able to speak english/italian normally in short spurts so it balances out #I was mainly inspired by his phase 2 background with the text messing up for that approach #but at the same time his audio clips are reversed peppino screams so I can easily see the reversed text take on it too #it just reads a little too understandable to me in text format so I make it weirder lol

i need a little notes section to be added to all block list functions in social media bc my goldfish memory having ass don't always remember why i blocked someone

see i looove blocking ppl and curating my online experience with wild abandon, but that means it can be anything from 'this person is a fucking terf' to 'this person is harmless but has annoying opinions about fictional characters i like' to 'this person once said mango was disgusting and i took it personally'

so now tumblr or whatever is telling me i have a mf blocked and i gotta sit there and wonder if they're a bigot or just have bad opinions on cheesecake

#like are they a rabid bigot? do they think liking x fictional character means ur evil? do they spout 'no kink at pride' bullshit? #do they think thoughtcrimes are real? do they have the habit of woobifying ur favorite character? #were they a little too excited about the death of some random anime character and it put u off? #did they reblog one of those 'have you heard this song' polls and have utter dogshit opinions on your favorite song? #are they kind of a dick with a bully type sense of humor that rubs u the wrong way? do they just rly fuckin hate cheesecake for some reason #all these and more are reasons i can remember off the top of my head for blocking someone lol #i rarely remember why i blocked someone but i often remember the feeling of 😒 that inspired it lol #so i can usually trust past me even if i don't remember why i blocked someone #tho if i take the time to rifle through an acc i blocked the reason why usually eventually becomes evident #i am at least consistent lol #sketchy speaks
