3. Have you taken someones virginity?

My first serious long-term relationship as a teen saw my girlfriend and I take each other's. It was awkward terrible sex and neither of us got off, but we had a lot of fun anyway just because we could be silly and have a good time together.

Her mom phoning me about it later made it a little retroactively awkward tho

17. Who do you feel most comfortable talking to about anything?

Now and then if you follow my tag rambling you might see me refer to someone in my life who goes by B. They are one of my oldest friends, and we've been through some Serious Shit together. We're as ride or die as it gets, and at least since they got over their sex-repulsion there's nothing I wouldn't talk to them about except some triggers obv.

Further, we've been with each other through both of us going completely to pieces a number of times, and put each other back together through all the toxicity we occasionally overflowed with. I would consider literally one person in my life to know me better than I know myself (even though a few would claim they do) and it's B.

71. Can you curl your tongue?

Yup! I can't do the fancy clover-curl thing, but I can roll it up just fine.

78. Who would you like to see in concert?

Ah fuck, that's a hard choice to make. I think it might have to be System of a Down, though--their music was hugely influential for me and they look like they have such incredible energy in person.

I would also kill a man to have dinner with Serj, but that's separate.

every time someone calls moirallegience just an alien qpr i wilt a lil like YEAH thats more or less the CLOSEST human thing but its also Literally Not That. like a qpr is fundanmentally not romantic and thats not even going into moirails whole Actual Purpose of calming ppl down. its just. aughhhhh pisses me off i see the confusion but, as aformentioned, aughhhhh

OH MY GOD THIS HAS BEEN BOTHERING ME TOO.... but i don't want to get petty at the people in my notes always saying "moirails are QPRs!" because in some ways that is the closest human thing so it's hard to be mad...

i think there's definitely some overlap in some ways. but NOT because moirallegiance and qprs are the same at all really, but INSTEAD because both relationships have unconventional boundaries defined by the people within them.

you know... like every relationship.

like the only reason the two have overlap is because they are both partnerships that emotionally care for each other but can choose to not bang (which is true for any romance anyway, even if it's considered abnormal). they're both just romances* that are unconventional to human norms, which makes people view them as the same thing when they're not.

i think the REAL issue here is that humans insist on using human words to understand things that are just, fundamentally, alien. can't we just appreciate alien romance for being... alien romance?

no, it's not platonic, it's romantic. it's just romantic in a way you aren't quite wired to understand, is all.

*in generalization, most QPRs are not romantic, because they are made up of aroaces who are life partners in a non-romantic way. however i want to disagree with you that none of them are romantic, because that is up to the partners in question.

#quadrants #homestuck #moirallegiance #BEEN THINKING ABOUT THIS FOR SO LONG OMG THANK YOU FOR THE ASK #its just i USED to think they were the same #and then recently i kept getting pissy when people said they were the same so i was like. okay let's unpack this #what's the overlap here and what's the differences?#and really people THINK theyre the same because they think theyre both like. 'im gonna platonically marry my friend!' ^w^#(which is obviously not actually what either of them are like. lol)#when REALLY what they have in common is 'hey you're a person i want to have a committed partnership. but potentially not sex or tradition'#and it's not really fair to compare them because they come from totally different places and have totally different standards #QPR was created as an ALTERNATIVE to allonorms. its about saying 'hey lets make up our own rules. my life partner can be platonic if i want #whereas moirallegiance IS a norm and its not counter any culture. it's just 'trolls have biological romantic feelings/needs in This way.'#idk idk how to explain it any further because ive spent a fucking hour on this post and i have a massive headache so feel free to ask me--#more specific questions if the shit i said here doesnt make any sense (；￣ー￣)..#<- wow haha the troll fictive autism really jumped out with this post huh. whoops #hsmeta #long post #op

How many holes does a straw have?

@i-send-you-random-asks

(asking you specifically cause i think you'd have an interesting answer)

Ohhh, yes, this is my question! Thank you, dear!

Short answer:

That depends on your definition of 'hole'. Topology says 1.

Long answer:

Since this depends on your definition of hole, I can think of 5 answers that can be rationalised and make some flavour of sense:

(@marvellouspinecone helped me with some of these a while back and might have additional info, so I am going to credit her here.)

0 holes

You can define a hole as something that makes an object broken, or at least as something you have to put into a finished object AFTER construction. This could be something like a tear in the fabric or a hole you have drilled into the 'wall' of the straw. Ergo, a functioning straw does not have any holes. It looks exactly as it was designed to be.

1 hole

This is the math answer. As said in the infamous post, a straw is 'topologically equivalent' to a torus. To be precise, it is homotopic to a torus.

First question: What is a torus?

Answer: Basically a donut. It looks like this:

[ID: image of a torus. It looks like a donut with a checkered surface. end ID]

Second question: What does 'homotopic' mean?

Answer: This is where it gets math-y technical, but in a way it means that we can continuously transform either of the objects into the other - in a nice way.

Imagine, our straw was made of super-clay: we can't rip it or glue it together at any point, but we can pull and push it together however we like, even changing its density. So we could stretch some parts to become very big and shrink others a lot. We can also bend and twist it a little.

So, we take our straw and we push it together in the direction of its length until the very long straw becomes short like a ring. And then we pull on the 'walls' to make them nice and fat and round. Tada! We have made a donut!

(We can do this in the other direction, too, pull the torus (donut) out long and then make the walls thin - then we get a straw.)

The thing about such homotopies is, they preserve the number of holes an object has. Hence, the straw has exactly as many holes as the torus (donut)!

Third question: How many holes does a torus have?

Answer: In topology, we have something called the Euler characteristic. It is a number that gets assigned to surfaces based on their properties (you can calculate it via triangulation but let's not go there.) A sphere (ball) has Euler characteristic 2. Each hole in a surface lowers the Euler characteristic by 2. The torus (is an orientable surface and) has Euler characteristic 0, so it has one hole.

(If you'd like to have the more exact explanation, it is attaching handles to a surface that reduce the Euler characteristic by 2 and add a hole. And a torus is homotopic to a sphere with one handle attached.)

Thus, a straw has one hole.

2 holes

If we define a hole as an indentation in an object that allows us (or something else) to enter a certain distance into the object, a straw has two holes. One on the top and one on the bottom.

This definition actually makes sense, since we call holes we dig into the Earth 'holes'. In the mathematic sense, they aren't, they're indentations that can (with the super clay idea) be flattened out. But with these holes we don't care about whether it will lead somewhere or just have a floor somewhere at the bottom, you can go in, so it's a hole.

If we forget about the fact that the straw leads 'one hole into the other', so like, if we were very small (or the straw very big) and we would merely walk across the outside and look into the holes, we would find two holes on the straw, one on the bottom, one on the top. If we don't enter, we wouldn't even know they were connected.

With this definition you have to be a little bit careful about when you start calling something a hole. I would reckon there needs to be a certain percentage-relation between depth of hole vs circumference of entrance to hole before you call it such. And maybe also something about size and shape and sharpness of edge - like, you wouldn't call a valley a hole, probably? But like, the straw fulfils the requirements of this hole easily, and twice.

3 holes

Okay, this one is merely for fun and play, don't get mad at me. But, say we define a hole kinda like above, as an entrance to the inside of an object. And we further define hole as any way through an object. Then we end up with something I like to call a 'hole-interval' through the straw.

So, we have one hole (rim at the top) to get into the straw, one hole (the straw, basically) to get through the straw and a third whole (rim at the bottom) to get out of the straw.

This is nonsense, obviously, but I like it, because there is a very nice mathematical feeling to it, resembling a closed interval. A closed interval [a, b] is just one object, but it has three parts that are often regarded independently of the others: the open interval (a, b) in the middle and the edge points {a} and {b}. For example, if you were to test the continuity of a function, you would often regard these three cases separately. So, in a way, there is beauty in regarding the 'three holes' of the straw as separate as well.

Infinitely many holes

This one is kinda nonsense as well, but I like the implications. If we define a hole as any instance of an object that is part of a tunnel through the object - I am using the word 'tunnel' here because actually, that tunnel would be the one hole in this case but for the sake of the definition, it can't be - then a straw is an infinite number of holes, stacked on top of each other. It is important to notice here that a hole cannot possibly have any depth in this case, just like the top and bottom holes in the last case.

This leads to two likely interpretations:

A) We have a hole at any real number (if we consider the straw as an interval along its length again). Then the straw would be made from uncountably infinitely many holes - which I think is an awesome concept.

B) We have a hole at any rational number. This would only give us a countably infinite number of holes in the straw and since Q is dense in R (don't worry about what that means), it would LOOK like the whole straw is made of holes, when in reality most of the straw would actually NOT HAVE ANY holes in it. Now isn't that the best thing you have heard all day?

And the best part : By this definition, not only would any straw be made of infinitely many holes, but any object with a hole in it would have infinitely many holes in it. Remember, for this to make sense, we needed to have holes with 0 depth. But any hole in reality has some depth. Punch a hole into a piece of paper: BAM infinitely many holes stacked on top of each other! :D

What have we learnt?

The most likely answers are 1 hole or 2 holes, depending on whether you take a more mathematical or more language-oriented approach. I think those were the two opinions most vocal in the original post as well.

But if you want to have fun, you can come up with very nice concepts and definitions to count holes by that give you a range of correct answers. Just make sure to think of the implications :)

#Thank you for this question <3 #I think you can tell I had a blast #On a related note: me and my friends were talking about the euler characteristic of the Earth the other day #Bc in meteorology you often consider the Earth as a torus #But with all the tunnel systems it is more likely to be an n-torus with n the number of holes and n being a VERY large number #Instead of - what you would initially guess perhaps - a sphere #math

If piepoe happend to be in the game, would they be a boss or a secret room in the hub world? I'm just curious :]

Definitely a secret room in the hub world!! It's actually where Piepoe exists in their own little universe, just in a hidden room within the tower. It'd be tricky to find but once it is found you can see her!!

(I'd also think if you taunted near him and his little children they'd all taunt with you as well!!) (Along with some sketches of other interaction ideas...!! Just for funs!!)

#Piepoe arts #but thank you for this very fun question!!! Oh to have piepoe seeable in a secret hub room...#sending lots and lots of love your way!! be safe!! make sure to eat and rest and drink water...!! take it easy!#💘💓💘💖💓💘💓💘💓💖💘💖💘💖💓💓💖💘💖💓💖💘💖💓💘💓💖💖💘💓💖💘💖💓💖💘💓💘💖💓💖💘💖💓💖💓‼️‼️‼️‼️#another little thought of a thing you could do is take a little crafted creacher with you if you hold up on it sitting upwards #both as a cute little friend to follow you around and also to help you during Pizza Time :3!!

Favorite whump trope?

Oh this is hard. Love the hiding an injury scenario and the whumpee thinking they are alone/unloveable/uncared for and then eventually is just loved on by one person or a group.

This past year has been the most wildest year of my life. To everyone I’ve come to known, old and new.

You mean the fucking world to me. Here’s for an even better rest of our year, together.

@f0rtunesfuture @amberluvsbugs @garbagechocolate @darkxsoulzyx @kandidandi @just-a-drawing-bean @cacaocheri @bunmuffin @sleepykas @xitsensunmoon @justaduckarts @skizabaa @starsketchez @fernzwing @smoljeanius @ilsole @tuzesdays @magicclownjuice @ohno-the-sun

(If I haven’t tagged you there is a Very(tm) high chance I am either unsure if you’d want to be tagged or too much of a coward to do it anyways but that does not mean you’d mean less <3)

#nebula art and doodles #i was gonna digitalize this but i thought it’d be funny if it wasnt #thank you to everyone who has come with me on this wild journey #only about 7-8 months since i first joined the dca fandom #since i joined ao3 and tumblr #and ever since then i have made some fucking incredible friends #i am so goddamn thankful to every single one of you fuckers /aff #for every goofy bit #every silly question i get #every ounce of serotonin ive gotten for people enjoying my things #you’ve all made my day just a little bit better for everytime i see someone like the things i create #to all my followers #to all my mutuals #to all my friends #thank you for making my life better #thank you for everything #i know for a lot of my moots i dont interact or talk to you #but do know i see you #and i appreciate you for sticking around #feeling sentimental as fuck thumbs up #anyways the fact that i share a birthday with sonic the fucking hedgehog sure is something #gotta go fast i guess

Hey I’m new to the LMK fandom, why do so many people ship Sun Wukong and Macaque??

A lot of people like the hurt/comfort potential because of their backstory and because they’re just really good counterparts lol. Macaque even makes a whole play about their past relationship, which is where a lot of that fuel for the ship comes from and the whole “the hero and the warrior were like the sun and the moon” spiel that people love using for shits and giggles. There’s also a really strong enemies to lovers sentiment and i think it’s kinda sweet

Personally, I just really like riffing off the divorced energy. To me, these idiots would rather beat the shit out of each other than make up and I really really eat that up. Not just as a joke, maybe as a way to cope with their feelings like “I want things to go back the way they were but this is all I can do”

#I don’t think there will be a /perfect/ answer to this question but this is just my insight lol. I think a lot of people are weak for #enemies to lovers content cause we just don’t get enough of it. and nobody’s doing it like themmmmm #it’s fine not to ship it ofc!!#enemies to friends is just as good and I don’t see any reason to appreciate it less #we’re also on the cusp of finding out what exactly happened between them either in the s4 special or s5 #not going to give anything away but. they were REALLLYYY fruity when they were friends if we get anything more I will die >///<#ALSO I FUCKING LOVE KNUCKLEHEAD X KNUCKLEHEAD CONTENT. FUCKING MORONSEXUALS #step aside heartfelt apologies it’s time for offering you a bandage after a huge fight. can we get some hand lingering on fist content #because that is the closest youll ever get to holding their hand like back then?? feeling their palm against your face in a hard punch HELLO #you’re only ever gonna get them ‘insulting with each other and finding it comfortable because it’s kinda like banter’from ME #thank u for the question btw!! this made me think a lot about what exactly appeals me in their relationship /gen #yapping #lmk #Lego Monkie kid #shadowpeach #doodles #ask

I'm turning that Sanuso Modern AU (In which they meet because Zoro forgets to pay at the Baratie and Usopp and Waiter!Sanji end up flirting all night while they wait for him to come back with the money) into a whole fic called "The very first night" that will approximately have 9 chapters and it's actually about Sanji going on a quest trying to find Usopp again and failing miserably. Congratulations, y'all have convinced me to write a long fic when I usually write one-shots. Let's see how this turns out!

#I'm actually really thankful because I haven't written a long fic since ummm my stranger things era #And I want to write my own book soon! Maybe this is good for practice!#And the story is really funny ngl I think y'all will like it #If you have any questions or are curious about some things just send me an ask bc It's gonna take a long time for me to post this one #I'm posting EVERYTHING at once and not chapter by chapter btw I prefer having everything already written down before posting #Lil spoiler of the friend groups:#Sanji is friends with Luffy/Law/Kid #Yes poor Sanji I feel sorry too #And Usopp is friends with Zoro/Nami/Vivi/Kaya #one piece #black leg sanji #usopp #sanuso

Hi, do u have any favourite stsg fics?

Hi :) I do indeed! I have some of my favorite stories publicly bookmarked on my Ao3 page. I only did so a little while back after seeing someone online post about how they want to read author's favorite works so I figured I'd bookmark some!

Unfortunately, since I did so after reading a lot, I was only able to pick through a couple of them and remember which was which, but I guess that means that those stuck out the most lol.

One of, if not my favorite, Satosugu fics is "bluebird, spread your wings (here's a piece of the broken dream) by tangerineseason on Ao3! If you haven't read it yet I highly recommend it! It was just so sweet and I think about it a lot.

I don't typically reread stories since I have so many I want to get to but this one honestly made me want to do so and I plan on going back to it soon!
