Kinda hurts a little when you've spent years creating a specific character in a specific universe for hardly anyone to see them, only for someone else to do the exact same concepts and get applauded for it. Did I just do it that badly or something

I remember when I first made all of my OCs supernatural in early 2022. I was one of the first people in [redacted] fandom who made it canon and talked openly about how my OC were vampires. And I got harassed for it endlessly. People were in my asks and dms telling me it was cringe and overpowered and lame, and that I was dumb to think anyone would care. Regardless of all of that, I kept them around and didn't stop talking about them. And then everyone else caught on and also made supernatural OCs because I helped to normalize it. Which isn't the problem, make as many supernatural OCs as you like, I'm not telling people to stop. That's not what bothers me (I have to add that disclaimer bc someone will undoubtedly try to get offended).

I think what upsets me is that it feels like I talk into a void sometimes and it sometimes feels like I don't have a place to share the things I'm proud of. I have an entire world that I made and this intertwined network of 10+ original characters and I just don't know where to talk about them or how to talk about them. I know we're "supposed to create for ourselves" and to "share it for good reasons", but it's really hard to put myself in that mindset. I don't do it for clout and I never will, I love my characters too much for that. Maybe I've just been doing a bad job of sharing anything about my world and characters, that is highly likely. I just can't help but remember the times I did share things and they went completely unnoticed

Just a little bit of acknowledgement would be nice. I think I'd be happy with that. Just a little bit of acknowledgement for the way I've had to fight to have my supernatural OCs exist in a cyberpunk setting in a hostile fandom. Just a little acknowledgement of the months of effort I put into my characters. And that would be all. Or maybe I'll learn how to just ignore everything and just keep doing as I have been. Putting my head and continuing on, savoring those small bits of genuine friendly interest when they come my way. That's good too

#let me make it clear that i am not begging for sympathy or notes #do not get that twisted #this is just a vent. me venting mostly to myself about my feelings on something. please don't take this as some sort of concrete truth #i'm expressing my own very conflicted emotions towards my experiences in this fandom and how i've had to fight just to be accepted #many people really did not want to accept that i created vampires in a cyberpunk setting #i am just very conflicted and anxious surrounding the whole thing. i don't know how to proceed #i just know for certain that i don't want to do it by myself and alone anymore #katsi.txt

If ignorance is happiness, please, steal me from my head

Cause the voices once so soothing make me feel so fucking, so fucking dead

#we are the numb #we come undone #we are the ugly truth #la gira empezó #concrete🖤forever #todavía no puedo creer que esta canción esté en su repertorio #mi tiktok está lleno de videos del comienzo de la gira #music is life #music is my love language #Spotify #late night tunes

My love for sonic media has come back and it has me looking at the ceiling of my bedroom like. Thinking about Silver and Elise and the missed potential. There should be a multi chapter fic out there where Silver stays with Elise after her dad dies and tries to prevent the events of sonic 06 from happening at all but it's actually about Silver dealing with trauma and being a teenager trying to basically raise a recently traumatized kid. Sorry I need to rewatch sonic 06 my brain is foggy as shit rn

#silver the hedgehog #princess elise #sonic 2006 #sonic 06 #au #i will never be over sonic 06... what the fuck was that game why was it so shit it could have been the most banger of bangers #also in my head silver in this au basically integrates himself into. sol's society and closest circle of elise dad. he probably tells them #what the fuck happened/the truth. also there's time skips up to the start of sonic 06. leaving it ambiguous as to if anything really changed #/if things will be better this time around #man i need to rewrite sonic 06 n make time travel rules more concrete

i already forgot how to draw them

#my art #doodles #ren and stimpy #rempy #theyre t4t and theyre both gay #in truth i dont have any concrete hcs for either of them #i was gonna make a couple edits with different hcs that i like but #i realized too late that i had. merged all the layers together. and it wouldve just been a pain in the ass. so

[justsomeguycore]

What do you think gay men are attracted to in men that they can’t be attracted to in women?

It can’t be anything about femininity or masculinity obviously. That’s both sexist, and cultural so can’t be what drives men-only attraction.

It can’t be anything about stated identity because someone could lie just as easily as they could tell the truth in such a statement, and it makes no sense because homosexuality and heterosexuality exists in other species with no stated identities. It’s not like other animals without gender are all pan.

Saying idk it’s the vibes or some indescribable trait men have that women can’t but “I can’t explain” is a nonanswer.

Soooooooo what is it? Or do you think any sexuality but bi/pan is just cultural performance or an identity rather than an inborn orientation?

- [ ]

i think you need to go outside

#you can say it’s a nonanswer but genuinely. there is no answer #assuming there’s a logical concrete absolute truth to these kinds of questions is your first mistake #absolute truth does not exist #the self does not exist #hope this helps! #ask

bitches be like "i've never had a hyperfixation" then spend 12hours frozen at their desk forgetting to eat or drink just to make a presentation look pretty

#its me im bitches #my friends tell me I have good work ethic but it's just adhd which means it's kind of a hit or miss #but most times i really love the subjects im doing so i just tend to hyperfocus for hours on end #it sounds like im being super productive but the truth is that im picking at my work like it's a wound scab. with my nails. fervently. #no concrete work is actually happening. and im super tired and dehydrated and hungry as hell and im realizing all of this super late #and i still can't move from my seat #megumi.txt

i she/he/they-d hythlo originally back when shadowbringers was endgame because i never saw any dialogue in-game use pronouns for them and i think emet only ever said her name so i genuinely didnt know what gender hythlodaeus was. and it was really funny seeing how they popped out of the oven in edw since i was drawing him looking like this

#absolutely could not be farther from the truth but you know what i was having fun #also ancient althaea art jumpscare before i think i even named her althaea and before she had concrete lore #to me azem was just a flacid recreation of tock and ruyan but now shes haunting me every day

hello. anyone willing to let me hang from their lips like the gardens of babylon?

#taylor swift #lyrics #ummm so yeah. #ill kiss you without knowing whether i can trust you bc i can only ever know about your love by word of mouth and somehow i have to #trust you on that alone. #i wish sometimes i could go INTO peoples brains and just know for certain that theyre telling the truth #i want concrete truth that you love me #not just the words “i love you” #BC IT ISNT ENOUGH!! #hearing words from a person's mouth is like hearing a myth or folklore #wdym u love me??? wdym?? SHOW ME #SHOW ME THE LITTLE THING IN UR HEAD THAT SAYS “I LOVE MOONS”

[spiribia]

im generally not a fan of the whole ‘the poor video game player character suffers more than anyone else and npcs are selfish and evil if they dont appreciate or pity the singular atlas-like burden the player character bears being the juiced up superhero figure that has to save the unworthy helpless innocents from threats and oppressive forces’ mentality i guess

#talks #people claim that takeaway of dark knight arc is along those lines and yeah 30-50 is fray proposing that concept to wol that #like wol is being forced to do all this shit and doesnt get any recognition and i dont think its wrong to see #that as possibly part of wols feelings i think they keep it ambiguous on purpose to let you fill in whatever. but i dont think #thats the objective truth of what the arc is saying and i think you really need to take into account that the whole thing #is wol DOESNT listen to fray and fray playfully laments as such later. its not concretely fray opening wols eyes to this matter #and changing wol -- fray in canon isnt even sure if theyve changed you at all. theyd like to think so #but they say wol changed THEM #and like when you look at the npcs in need of aid wol gets pissed at in 30-50 and its like innocent people who are like please save #other people from getting killed and wol through fray is annoyed at them for that. and then sidurgu gets directly #reprimanded for getting frustrated at RIELLE because he CHOSE to fight for her and thats not her fault #and the flame at the heart of the abyss for a dark knight is love and compassion. like ITS ALL INTERCONNECTED in my mind
