#we kinda followed each other

[hood-ex]

Nature would start to heal if Tim dozed off on Dick's shoulder like this:

#yes they have to be wearing hoodies bc in case some of y'all forgot--i have a soft boi dick agenda #no but i need tim to crash at dick's place and for them to both be ready for bed in their pajamas and hoodies #but then bruce in full batman garb knocks on the window and is like ''we need to talk'' #so then dick and tim glance at each other before settling on the couch #and bruce stands in front of them and goes off on all these details of a case or what have you #and dick and tim are both blinking sluggishly and trying to follow along but neither of them have slept in 48 hours #and so tim slumps against dick's side and settles his head on dick's shoulder #and dick rests his head on top of tim's #and both of them just kinda hum at whatever bruce says but dick does the talking when required #and tim's eyes keep sliding shut but he's trying his damndest to listen to what bruce has to say #but at some point sleep takes a hold of him and dick eventually motions for bruce to gtfo and let them sleep #Dick Grayson #Tim Drake #soft boi dick

tbh with tumblr rolling out the new notification system that explicitly tells you if you're mutuals with someone or not I think we should take this time to stop making such a big deal out of "being mutuals" in the first place and reintroduce terms like "friend" and "acquaintance" into our vocabularies

#like idk I literally don't care if I'm mutuals with someone?? #how we interact establishes our relationship #following each other is just like an extra thing that is nice but doesn't mean we can't interact and be friends still #there are people on here I consider my friend who I do not follow it's not that deep #I have irl friends who don't follow me just bcs they don't vibe with the way I post #ever since the twitter peeps came back people have been using “mutual” a LOT and it's always kinda rubbed me weird #like all those posts like “me and the mutuals” like just say your friends you and your friends #that's what you mean #I just don't think we should put so much emphasis on being mutuals with someone it's like #can we all just be online friends again #I usually just say “my internet friends” #me not following someone does not mean I don't think of them as a friend or value their presence #and I don't expect everyone who likes me to follow me following is not a given #anyway this has been your “I'm getting old aren't I?” rant for the day

Fun 🦵🏽 day with my cool trainer, and boy are my legs tired 😩😤

Definitely feeling it tmrw but good to be making some progress with my balance and whatnot lol 😤

#ore no kao #[also he now follows me on IG so that's also progress hopefully lol] #[still kinda feeling some vibes as we banter and junk with each other but hoping i'm not wishcasting lol] #[[[but ugh sure would be nice to [*] a cute guy's [*] right about now 😑]]] #[[[or maybe get some leg massages out of it too lol]]] #had planned to go early-vote and swing by the local supermarket for some croissants but hopefully doing tmrw #nice Saturday all told

not dipping back there again after this, but my opinion on where the discourse re: us politics is heading is not getting any nicer.

#thoughts #personal #not a vagueblog about any blog in particular #because it's been a deluge on my dash for a good two to three weeks from every side and almost every US blog I follow #I don't even disagree with the endgoal (I mean I extremely do but I understand the stakes) #but I deeply *deeply* disagree with the way it's all being framed #though I'm not surprised. and I wasn't expecting better. #but yeah in a couple of years we might all need to unpack what that strategy looked like from the outside. #because wow #the weaponization of “white guilt” in particular to silence what is often (from what I see) PoCs trying to express their loss of faith #is. so very revealing to me. #the assumption of motive and identity here and how much more convenient it feels than the actual messy complicated truth #I think the usage of “white guilt” and “white saviorism” as a weapon thrown in between white people to control each other's behavior #especially in moments like these where PoCs are explicitely demanding our collective solidarity and voice #is actually a conversation we should all very seriously have at some point #anyway. #not mad at anyone for wanting to vote for biden #kinda mad at a good 75% of the posts prompting people to do so however.

Art from Mundus Carnis, a geiger-esque biopunk worldbuilding project by Screeble on DA.

I'm a huge huge fan of their art and writing and worldbuilding, have been for years. They did some fantastic work in a collaborative spec evo forum game I lurked.

Which have lived in my head ever since.

#spec evo #spec bio #biopunk #worldbuilding #body horror kinda #and some of the other MC designs are...not very safe for work #or life #but that's a side effect of being Geiger inspired #screeble #deviantart #god primordial evo games were so fun and cool I would love to do one with some friends #started with some incredibly basic mspaint blobs as like the original organisms and each post could add a little more to one #eventually we got sophonts and societies and shit like the Lufae and their fungal biotech #I'm using we very loosely there I contributed like three posts before I got scared lol #but god I followed the threads religiously once they got going #and I've stolen stuff from them for my tabletop campaigns for years #the Lufae especially I immediately started using as my go-to underdark-y species #which makes their alien vibes that much cooler when compared to like...an elf

[juniperhillpatient]

absolutely hilarious to me the contrast of writing happenstance while occasionally getting inspiration & drafting stuff for my next project which is… drastically different 😅 here’s a wholesome scene about the power of friendship & love 😊 ok now here’s a family of deeply hurt & flawed individuals with absolutely no hope of salvaging any of their relationships ever 💔

#scream au is gonna be so different from anything else I’ve written if I follow through with it 😱 #it’s honestly fun tho. really a fan of the scene I just drafted between Azula & kiyi. I usually write them with a wholesome twist #but uh. don’t count on much wholesomeness from the fire fam at any point if I do this idea 😅😅 #there’s something delicious about two traumatized people who just absolutely fucking loathe each other tho you know #no hope kinda shit can be sexy sometimes what can I say <3 #like. the. we could’ve been besties in another life maybe but it’s too late for that now & there’s no going back in time #also having fun letting kiyi be a little awful. as a treat #I should stfu this project is SO hypothetical #I need to stop vague ing 💀 #rose.txt

[mockingspider]

alright gang, how are we feeling about the chapter titles i have so far for the ghostflower fake dating au?

#maybe some stuff will be moved around or changed #since we arent following a main plot after chapter 10 #then it kinda turns into oneshots if them pretending to like each other while slowly falling in love #across the spiderverse #ghostflower #miles morales #gwen stacy #erin wrote a fic

thinking about the fact that i was so socially awkward as a teen that the school wanted to me out of class to attend "social skills classes" once a week (to which i attended one and demanded i be removed from the program cuz it was just me and about a dozen equally uncomfortable probably-autistic kids who also probably did not want to be there, being forced to do icebreaker activities by deeply condescending special education teachers)

how did i not receive an autism diagnosis til i was nearly an adult and specifically advocated for myself to be taken to a professional to get checked out for autism and adhd???

#eliot posts #i'm really curious whose call it was to put me in there #it wasn't my parents because my mother was Outraged that her kid got put in a special ed type class and signed the papers so i could leave #so like. what teacher made that call. #and what exactly sparked that #was it my general being a loner or was there An Incident #i don't remember exactly what grade i was in. probably 8th or 9th? #so still kind of stuck in my ''convinced myself i was just Better than my peers and that's why i didn't have many friends'' phase #following that was a phase where i got over myself but was kinda just shy #and then a phase where i went okay fuck it we ball and acted weird but in a way intended to be funny #that annoyed some people but some people enjoyed. by then i figured ''eh i aint seeing most of these ppl ever again after graduation'' #i had some friends in high school bc of marching band but they were all in different grades than me #tho even then i was only close w like 2 of them and the rest all seemed closer to each other than to me #edit: dug through my blog and it was 7th grade (yeah ive been on here that long) #so this was before i even had my marching band friends. but probably after my singular friend from elementary school moved away? #i forget if he left in 6th or 7th grade #(im still friends with that friend. he's great we love him)

that postal movie is so inconsistently ok

#i watched the last like. ten minutes of it cos i know most of the boobie is done by then its just like. blood n guns whatever #and like. i almost kinda get the vague impression of what they're trying to satirize #yknow? #and i still think the dude's monologue of just 'CAN'T WE ALL JUST GET ALONG' immediately being shot down is. im not gonna sit here and #cal it poignant but i GET it i think its funny and i think maybe you could argue theres something there about how arbitrarily willing human #are to just kill each other instead of trying to work things out #hence the ending #and i think maybe the stuff with the US nuking themselves to clense out the 'terrorists' would work better if they werent already like #literal villians in the film i feel like the satire is lost when you start punching down like that i think the whole point the movie was #'trying to make' about how nine eleven was jsut a tragedy and not some grand justification for our overseas .massacring. doesn't work so #well when you've also got to throw in a bunch of 'terrorists' as your set of bad guys. you know? #also i dont care chris coppola is really entertaining as richie i HATE THAT GUY #also i lost my mind when the IRS actually called him 'david clark' i was like OH SO THAT IS HIS ACTUAL NAME GET UP #postal dude and faith could have been fun if faith had been in the movie for more than two fucking scenes before. but WHATEVER #WE DONT HAVE TIME TO DEVELOP OUR CHARACTERS RELATIONSHIP WE NEED TO HAVE CUTAWAY VIOLENCE/BIGOTRY JOKE NUMBER 334835345 #consider the following

yes im besties with my mutuals no ive never had an actual conversation with anybody on this app

#there are way too many people following a guy who sits around and talks to himself with the occasional addition of others #of the 4 or 5 people I’ve dmed we have not exchanged more than like. 10 messages total #i live in a bubble and watch the mutual circles move around me #ive toed onto the side lines of a few mutual circles and kinda just. Watch #occasional participation #i don’t know how to make friends so i’ve become a people watcher on tumblr too #none of this is a pity thing it’s just me talking to myself #Literally #im just living and you guys are watching #we are watching each other #im in the glass tank swimming around bumping into walls and people who interact with my posts are like the zoo keepers who drop food in #how does it feel to have that power #1 reblog feeds me in my little glass tank

jim is aromantic, i've decided

#memes to follow #because thats how i roll i guess 😂😂 #ofmd s2 #ofmd spoilers #? #ofmd #our flag means death #jim jimenez #listen i've been really enjoying the casual blurring of friendship/romance between olu and jim #like they're besties they're life partners they're banging they're wingmanning each other it's amazing #looking back at s1 we got a lot of scenes where olu was pining but jim always seemed to have complicated feelings about it #like in the beginning i kinda thought it was their revenge quest + them figuring out gender stuff #that was distracting them from being 100% present #but we've seen them come into their own so much this season and they're so much more comfortable with their feelings #those feelings just don't seem to be romantic ones #this is too much typing already im on my phone rn #but rest assured i have more to say lmfao

Anouther is the most chaotic neutral being, isn't hy?

#anoutherposting #chaotic neutral #'i do what i want' personified #true neutral could work too but i dont follow rules and regulations because i believe in it i do it if and when it benefits me #i do believe most people fall on lawful something or other #a lot of people kinda just like to be commanded and do as they're told #which ik is absolutely Normal in the human race but will never understand regardless #maybe it's just bc anyone who's ever tried to make a decision for me or force me into making a decision has been badawful #so the concept of obeying is a foreign and alien intrusion #but power is so easy to abuse that idrc how i got to be the person i am #i am just happy that i do not give more than i take in most cases #people in general are both selfish and communal. selfishness is not inherently bad or wrong-- it is alive #selfishness can prompt us to work and care for others just as much as The Social Instinct #and i'm honestly more comfortable with people who have accepted that they can be selfish and thats okay #both giving and accepting help is selfish. but we can all agree it is inherently good to help each other #so basically like every other human thing selfishness is ambivalent and has both positive and negative applications #idk where i'm going with this essay mx.

Was feeling cute on this nice fall day ngl

#ore no kao #for no real reason since plans with two friends fell through #and seeing my one friend/sorta-ex visiting from Philly after missing him twice also didnt pan out #told me he was visiting last week but expected him to follow up about planning... #being as busy as i was my mind was all over... #[not sure why it kinda has me a bit dejected but ig it's since seeing each other would help me see if we do still have some chemistry] #[also his making sure plans to see a mutual friend but not me... hmm] #anyway hi been gone most of the week lol #at least i got a step or two closer to recreating some more of my fansubbing work post-SSD failure

[imabiscuitinthousandworlds]

You are an amazing person and I'm really glad to have you as a mutual and I hope you had a great day!

What's your favourite song right now?

(Yes, I am sending the same ask to all of you because I value and care about you all so much)

it took me a moment to answer haha, but i here i am! i can absolutely give all of that right back to you. you're a wonderful person, avvie <3

i'll probably have to go with Songs Of Truth by Tribute to Nothing, but Last Rockers by Vice Squad absolutely kicked in when I first heard it today

(btw, since i now have most of the tribute to nothing album as mp3s i am absolutely willing to share them. the quality is horrid and very fuzzy bit that feels natural for punk sooo)

what's yours? did anything good or mildly amusing happen recently?

#a biscuit's rambles #<3 #oh geez remember how we became mutuals #we were talking on a personal post of one of us #but all awkwardly and in the tags #it was sooo weird but then we kinda just followed each other #a wonderful decision really

guys what if i want to make my own apollo justice game.

#i need to write a prequel to aa4 pls pls pls pls pls #okay get this: so phoenix isnt disbarred yet and he doesnt have trucy. hes still taking and winning cases #one day he gets a call from edgeworth and hes all like ''wright i need your assistance'' and hes like what for and edgeworth goes #''ive been given the most ridiculous case and i think youre the only man in law who can take care of it'' #so phoenix bikes his ass to the detention center and boom. child behind bars #and phoenix is like ??? hey kid what are doing here. and this kid is the most surly mfer on the planet like you couldnt get- #-a word out of him if you tried. hes kinda giving phoenix the stink eye too but hes just the littlest guy on earth #and phoenix feels bad for him so he tries to get a rundown of the case (maybe edgeworth gave him an autopsy report or smth beforehand) #but get this. the kid still wont speak. he hasnt even moved a muscle. and after some prodding you find out this little dude- #-doesnt speak english (i dont love aa6 but i think apollos tragic backstory can be interesting so we're going w that but taking it seriousl #anyways so maya is like omg this kid is speaking khurainese but hers is kinda broken bc shes not from the mainland and only knows it- #-from like prayers #so you only get bits and pieces of the kids testimony. plus he still doesnt wanna talk bc ''dhurk told me not to talk to you'' #so you start following the new lead but you ask too many questions and apollos like oh shit i said too much and wont talk to you anymore #but now you have two leads: khur'ain and a man named ''dhurk'' plus the fact that this is kid might be new to america since- #-he cant speak english but is smack dab in the middle of california. its all v curious and phoenix wants to get to the bottom of it #for the rest of the case i feel like it would go in the direction of ''we dont know exactly whats up w this dhurk guy or where this kid- #-came from but we do get him acquitted and phoenix is able to save him from the dark path he was heading towards'' thus steering apollo- #-in the direction of law and giving him a wayyyy better reason than aa6 gave him <3 #i kind of like the interlinked nature of ace attorney's storytelling. like everything leads into smth else and everyone is impacted- #-by another person before they even become properly entangled w each other's lives #like how mia faced dahlia years before she met phoenix but dahlia was the one to connect them #or how trucy gave phoenix the diary paper but she's also the one who ropes apollo into the waa. even before they know they're siblings #or how lamoire left apollo and trucy as children and when they reunite as adults they cant recognise each other but they all find each- #-other anyways #i could go on but i think this could be cool yknow esp bc i think the most interesting thing about apollo's aa6 backstory is his life- #-post dhurk. like where did he stay? was he a foster kid? was he put into the system? how did that affect him? what kind of ppl took him in #i just wanna know how that whole thing would have effected him bc like when yiu think about it how did he even get to america?? his dad's #-considered a terrorist. idk man i think its interesting and apollo and dhurks interactions are one of the only good parts of aa6

the inherent intimacy of washing paintbrushes in the sinks of the men’s bathroom in the evening with a cool person you met that day at theatre

#there are no gender-neutral bathrooms in that building and neither of us are cis #so i kinda just followed their lead and we walked right past the women’s bathroom and into the men’s which was. unexpectedly cool lol #usually we wash paintbrushes in a big loud room but we were in a different building today #so it ended up just being like. the two of us alone in a bathroom washing brushes. idk why but it was SOOO… something #maybe it’s gender stuff maybe they’re just hot idk but it was an experience of some kind or another dkdjfhg #my words #elliott’s theatre adventures #this was thursday btw #OH YEAH i almost forgot to say that before that (when we were painting) i mentioned i write and they asked about my characters #so i told them about my knight ocs AAA #i am Not that bold 90% of the time but idk it was an experience lol #granted i didn’t say a ton #just some #but still :3 #we got along well #which was nice because usually the other people i’m painting with are already friends so they mostly just talk to each other
