#compared to what was actually last year or so...

[pagesfromthevoid]

How could I deserve someone like you? + Rhett!!

Rhett always gets into a mood after a bad ride or being reamed by Royal. It’s like he just can’t do shit right, and he gets into his head that maybe he’s not half as good at this as he thinks.

Tonight it’s both, though.

It’s a bad ride that barely lasts four seconds. It’s Royal trying to tell him how to improve in the most condescending way imaginable. Like Rhett hasn’t been doing this for years. As if Rhett isn’t replaying that last ride over and over in his head, picking apart what he did wrong.

You’re leaning against his truck when he finally gets away from the crowd. You’re always in the stands, rain or shine, but you don’t like to crowd him after his rides. You know it stresses him out, and you can only bite your tongue so much before you want to chew out Royal for his shitty parenting.

“Not tonight,” Rhett says, voice low.

You know that tone; have heard it enough times to know that he doesn’t actually mean it. He’ll say not tonight or to go home. And if you do go home, he’s at your door within the hour, apologizing. Sighing into your skin, holding you close. You’ve stopped listening to him when he says things in this tone.

“Am I gonna have to fight your dad?” You ask, and your voice is light compared to his. But there’s a hint of serious in there. Like you’ll actually pick a fight with a grown man for him.

“I’m serious,” he continues, pushing you gently away from the door so he can open it. “‘M sore and fuckin’ tired. Tomorrow, ‘kay?”

But you slide into the drivers seat before he can, and you give him a knowing look. Rhett runs a hand over his face, and you know he’s trying to keep it all together.

“Look at me,” you order gently, reaching up to touch his cheek. Rhett fights you for a second before caving —he never fights too much when it comes to you. “I’m cutting out the middle part, cowboy. Plus, I don’t gotta ride home.”

He takes a breath, and there’s a wince where he landed wrong his on his side. You know he probably has bruised ribs at the minimum.

“I’m not going anywhere without you,” you promise and he’s taking his hat off and tossing it into the passenger seat.

Then his head drops to your shoulder and he’s clutching you like you’re the only thing that makes sense in this shitty little town. Maybe you are.

“How could I deserve someone like you?” He murmurs into your shoulder, and it’s muffled. But it’s so genuine. So broken.

“You exist,” you remind him softly. “And that’s all I need to love you.”

(whispers) what about wally west x batsis!reader

dividers made by: @cafekitsune

pairings: wally west x fem!batsis!reader (and other members of the batfamily)

a/n: inbox is open if anyone has any requests!

batsis, who starts dating wally a couple of months after working with him. wayne’s know what they want, and they don’t wait around for it.

wally’s ecstatic. he’s seen her long before meeting her, of course. she’s on the covers of magazines, articles are written about her newest outfits, and there’s always some new pictures of her uploaded.

wally thinks she’s beautiful. yeah, he’s flirted with pretty girls before, but she isn’t comparable to anyone he’s ever met. he can hardly believe that this gorgeous girl wants to be with him. actually wants to be in his company.

they keep the relationship private for the first few months. not exactly a secret, she’s just not declaring it in interviews. she wants something to herself for once in her very public life. he’s telling everyone he knows with a proud smile.

they’re spotted one day. a picture taken of her kissing his cheek goodbye after a day together and is uploaded. articles the next day, ‘Gothams Princess is dating . . . who exactly?’

she finds him one morning, looking at the article on his phone with a worried expression. she comes up behind him, wrapping her arms around his bare torso, her face resting on the back of his shoulder blade.

“what are you looking at?” she mumbled, looking around his arm to peek at his phone before scoffing and returning to his back. “don’t bother with those silly things.”

“but what if-“ “doesn’t matter.” she cuts him off with a small yawn. wally doesn’t look convinced.

“you’re not even a little bit curious as to what they’re saying about us?” she shook her head without thought. “i stopped reading anything to do with me years ago. even if the article is nice, it isn’t good for anyone to read about themselves.”

wally huffed, putting his phone down. “i hate when you sound smart.”

she just smiled, pressing kisses to his shoulder. “another smart suggestion from me is us going back to bed.”

wally west, who accompanies her to a gala when asked. he declined at first, but then she sighed.

“alright then. i just asked because one of the sons of bruce’s business partners is always asking me to dance. i sort of wanted to show you off.”

that’s all it took to convince him.

and now he finds himself in a new suit, in a room with some of the richest people in gotham. a group of older ladies are cooing at him, touching his hair and saying how “precious” and “interesting” red-heads are.

his shoulders sag in relief as an arm links with his, and he sees reader at his side. she smiles at the ladies. one of them lowers her champagne glass to talk to her.

“(name) wayne! i didn’t know you went for red-heads.”

she laughs. she seems at ease, but wally can feel her fingers gripping his arm just a little tighter. “well, i suppose i just couldn’t resist this one.”

wally smiles to himself and barely registers her tugging him away after giving the ladies one last smile. he looks at her with a lazy smirk.

“couldn’t resist me, huh?” “shut up or i’ll kick you out.” wally just smiles.

wally west, who will just have a dreamy look on his face when reader is scolding him. it might just be a little petty thing that she’s annoyed over, but wally will listen to her with his hand under his chin thinking “she’s giving out to me. it’s me who she chose to give out to. she’s so amazing. she’s cute when she’s angry. it’s kinda hot.”

wally west, who knows he’s a goner pretty early. he has the wedding playlist made before half a year together. probably has kids names picked out too.

reader, who just lets him talk. it isn’t uncommon to find them together, her doing a menial task while he chats her ear off. wally thinks she’s ignoring him, and just letting him get it out, but then she’ll reference something he said at a later time.

like one time he was yapping about the differences between the different fast food restaurants, and thought that she had forgotten about the whole thing. but later that week, when dick suggests going to BatBurger for food, she shakes her head and says “wally prefers Chicken Whizee. he was telling me about it earlier.”

wally’s heart probably jumps, and he goes red at the smirk that dick gives him.

wally west, who probably had a million and one pictures of her in his camera roll. pictures of times where nobody else sees her, just him. her in her pyjamas with her hair in curlers. a mirror picture of them both in matching face masks. her in the morning with her hair messy and mascara smudged. her asleep on his shoulder.

he doesn’t post those. they’re for him to smile at and fall in love with even more every-time he sees them.

he does post her non-stop though. candid photos of her smiling or laughing. the captions are 100% the cringiest lines ever.

‘she must be the flash because she makes my heart speed’ ‘partner in (fighting) crime’ ‘the peanut butter to my jelly’

and everytime dick will be in the comments like “caption makes absolutely no sense walls”

she’ll post him too. on her public account, it’ll be more proper pictures of them together. anniversary pictures with hearts. most of the comments are happy for them, and every so often they’ll be a guy (or girl) burning with jealousy.

but on her private with just her friends and family, it’ll be pictures of him passed out on the couch with his costume still on, or eating cereal together in bed (i do not recommend btw)

and i can totally see dick posting one of those pictures of the three of them where wally and reader are kissing in the background while dick is just standing there. the caption: ‘when you literally introduced them to each other and end up third wheeling’

wally west, who will spam her phone with those videos of animals together with the caption “us ❤️” with messages declaring love and she’ll just respond with “ok.”

wally west, who quotes shows at her all the time. they watch friends together? now he’s constantly saying that she’s his lobster. parks and recreation? now the line “i love you and i like you,” is a common phrase said by him. jerry maguire? he’s now always saying “you complete me,” while doing the hand motions. he practically glows when she does it back.

he’ll sing love songs to her in the kitchen together, and smile when she sings back.

wally west, who brings batsis to his house for christmas. she meets his mom, uncles, aunts, and cousins (she probably already knows barry and iris).

he’s a bit nervous about showing her his modest house that he grew up in. “it’s not much compared to wayne manor-“ but she just takes one look at the warm lights and the people who are so comfortable in each others company that she just smiles and says “it’s amazing.”

she tried to help mary with some cooking, but she’s never made a meal bigger than grilled cheese before because of alfred, so mary gives her small tasks to do like stirring.

she shows reader how to line pastry, and she just copies mary’s movements. it’s a pretty good bonding experience.

wally west, who loves summer with her. he especially loves beach days and pool parties. he’ll shake like a dog after coming out of the water, spraying her despite her protests. if she’s reluctant to go in the water, he’ll literally toss her over his shoulder and drop her in (and then make up for it with kisses). his fingers will playfully toy with her bikini straps before she smacks his hand away.

and if she steps out in a red and yellow bikini? his brain short circuits. they end up 30 minutes late to the function.

wally west, who loves annoying her. when he asks her on a date while they’re in the relationship, and she says yes, he’ll immediately say “chat is this rizz?” to nobody.

a second after every kiss he’ll say “that was awesome sauce,” or “chat clip that.”

if they’re on a mission together and encounter bad guys, he’ll say “are we cooked?”. she’ll repeat “what does that mean?” while he’s just saying “i didn’t know bad guys were invited to the function,” or “no cap, we’re gonna mog these guys.”

wally west, who calls her every nickname under the sun. she has to check sometimes that he still remembers her name because of how often he actually calls her it.

the normal ones are okay. i can see him being a massive “babe”/“baby” guy. he also sometimes greets you with a “hey gorgeous,” or “hi beautiful,”

it’s the weird ones that he uses to tease. he’ll jump onto the couch beside her, giving a loud smooch to her cheek with a “hey sweet cheeks.” or he’ll put his head in her lap, grinning up at her before saying “what’s up honey bunches?”.

he ABUSES the line “what’s cookin’ good lookin’?”

wally west, who’ll sit in her space happily.

he’ll make himself comfortable in her bed with the floral bedsheets, setting down onto the silk pillow cases. he watches her do her skincare, and won’t protest if she dabs a bit of moisturiser on his face. if she asks to do a spa day with him, he’ll already have the headband pushing his short fringe up. he’ll watch her with stars in his eyes as she puts those under eye things on him.

wally west, who gets her siblings to come around to him. eventually.

dick was no problem, obviously. he was ecstatic to see his best friend and sister together (though he did threaten wally by reminding him how much he likes having kneecaps)

jason might be a little more difficult. he’s protective of the things he loves after loosing so much. wally respects that. he’ll give jason a casual compliment disguised as a passing remark if they pass each other, with a beaming smile on his face. jason will hum a little, and wally takes this as acceptance.

“you’re like a brother to me, jason.” “don’t push it, west.” “noted.”

tim was alright too. wally paid bart to really talk him up (subtly, of course). they were able to bond over niche video games. wally’s also pretty good at science, specifically physics, so they work together sometimes.

cass wasn’t hard either. reader brought wally to one of her ballet shows, and they gave her a bouquet of flowers after. wally congratulated her.

“i normally don’t have the patience for these things, but you were amazing up there.” and cass smiles and thanks him.

his mouth runs a million miles a minute, while cass rarely talks. he notices that she sometimes uses hand gestures to communicate, so he learns some of the common ones she uses. she’s able to read his body language when he’s around reader, and she can tell by the way he’s always turning to her that he likes her very much. wally gains cass’ approval to date her sister.

wally’s convinced that damian still hates him. reader claims that damian just doesn’t know how to show that he likes someone, but wally thinks that the narrowed eyes he gets from across the table every dinner is a sign in the opposite direction.

first time wally was at dinner, damian made a show of the sword on his side, patting it every so often. he also managed to mention that he knew how to gut a person, and wouldn’t mind some extra practise.

reader tuts at damian and tell him to stop, but he’ll just tilt his head up and claim that he’s making sure that wally is “worthy of someone at your level.”

wally west, who traces her scars with care. he’ll slow down for her. in fact, he likes it when their time is slow. lying on either the bed or couch, bodies together. his warm hands will slip under her shirt to feel her skin, his fingertips gently running along the scars from her years of being a vigilante.

his expression doesn’t change. it doesn’t form into one of discomfort, or confusion. his eyes don’t avert awkwardly. he’ll just kiss her shoulder and murmur words of adoration.

if she ever begins to feel unsure of her body or dislike, he’ll be there for kiss every inch of her skin, whispering words of praise and love.

wally west, who during the night, will hold reader close. his arms will be around her torso while hers are around his shoulders. he kisses under her jaw, saying “i love you,” quietly.

he prays she can’t hear his racing heart when she murmurs “i love you too,” into his hair.

Shy gn!reader who has never dated anyone before the Demon Brothers

Characters: Mammon, Leviathan, Satan, Asmodeus and Beelzebub (x reader, separately)

Main Masterlist

Part 1 , Part 2 , Part 3 , Dateables version

Requested by: Romance Anon

A/N: I know I said requests will be posted from July on, but I literally remembered this one two days ago and I think it got requested last year, so...

.

Mammon

Since the very first moment he saw you, there has been no one else in his mind, including those he’s already dated or fooled around with. Why would he look at anyone else when you’re right beside him? Why would he think about previous heartbreaks when you make him feel so light-hearted?

Okay, sure, he’s most of a ‘casual, noncommittal fling’ type of guy, and perhaps calling his failed relationships ‘heartbreaks’ is an exaggeration, but some of them did hurt at the time, you know?

There weren’t many souls that loved him despite his gambling addiction and his kleptomaniac tendencies, and, while he understood why they eventually broke things up with him, it always left a sour taste in his mouth.

So, not only you are the first one to insist on seeing the best he can be, but he also seems to be unable to succumb to the temptations of greed when you’re around.

He doesn’t yearn for more because you’re already more than enough, and for the very same reason, he doesn’t think about what he used to have and lost.

Surprisingly, Mammon isn’t especially insecure about your relationship history, even when he doesn’t know nothing about it. After all, if you don’t reminiscence or wonder about anyone, then why should he be worried?

Competing with his own brothers and that nasty human sorcerer for your attention is enough of a headache.

There isn’t any particular reason that pushes you to tell him about your lack of experience other than you wanting him to know you better.

He’s playing a new game (more like constantly dying) while you’re sitting right next to him eating some takeout food, and the words blurt out of your mouth before you can even register them, like is just another fun fact about your favourite animal.

At first, Mammon frowns when he hears you, because how could anyone not have shown interest in you before, and then smiles with the usual superiority he carries like a shield.

“Well, who cares who you did or didn’t date? You’re with the Great Mammon now, right? And there’s no one better!”

He sounds arrogant and cocky when he says it, but there’s a hint of truth in his words.

Now that you’re with him, does anything else really matter?

Plus, there’s something sweet in knowing that he is your first in every sense of the word.

Leviathan

Telling him about your lack of previous partners is actually an act of mercy towards his sense of self-worth and the insecurities born out of your feelings for him and the relationship you’ve created together.

It is obvious, even to an outsider, that Levi isn’t used to real life romance and fully believes is not made for it either.

He states himself as a shut-in who finds comfort and sensibility in 2D animation and carefully programmed intelligence and social interaction. The media he consumes is based on the buyer’s preferences, so his views on the world beyond his bedroom door are drastically black and white. That is, although he appreciates the morals of friendship and heroism, he’s quick to categorize strangers based on pure actions; like contemptuously calling you a normie when he met you even though he really didn’t know you at all.

Of course, there is a need of escapism in what he does.

He doesn’t feel like enough compared to most of his brothers or others around him (he still can’t believe he shares interests with Diavolo, who willingly wants to spend time with him), so he traps himself in his comfort zone, dresses up and role-plays, and creates passwords to keep those who don’t respect his passions away.

Taking that into consideration, Levi still doesn’t completely understand how he managed to end up with someone so admirable as you.

Your relationship isn’t based on romance or lust, so, despite being in love with you, your friendship is what he values the most. You are kind to him, patient and attentive, and you never make fun of what he likes even if it isn’t a particular interest of yours. He looks up to your bravery, and how you’re willing to try new things.

He really, really can’t comprehend why you chose to be with him, so the moment you share the fact that he’s your first partner, you rock his entire world.

You mean to tell him that you could’ve had anyone in the three realms, yet he’s the one that ended up dating you? Is that it??

His eyes start to sparkle and he smiles like the world finally makes sense to him.

He finally believes he deserves good things.

Satan

Before he met you, Satan didn’t really understand how far love could go; how limitless it could become if paired with the right person. He acted, more than you could ever imagine, as an obvious “matter of fact” type of guy: what it was, was, and it always had a reason to be.

Still, his intellect and charisma made him easy to like and love, and he had connections with all sorts of people, so he got to have a partner every now and then. Normally, they were established, formal relationships, but he didn’t reject casual ones if the occasion took place.

Most of the reasons for his breakups were normal: lost feelings, different directions, disagreements…; but there were others that… honestly? Took him by surprise.

And not in the good way.

The reason some of his ex-partners used to leave him that infuriated him the most was that he didn’t love them enough, or at all; and no matter how much he insisted on his feelings for them, they didn’t believe him.

The root of their conclusions?

Satan loved cats more than he loved them.

He cooed at them, made entire photoshoots, and spent copious amounts of money for the sake of feeding and playing; his cheeks reddened in uncontained excitement whenever he saw even the smallest hints of pointy ears and a long, sinuous tail; and whoever looked at his eyes each time a cat was involved could swear that he had stars in his pupils.

But could anyone blame him?

They were cats.

Besides, the love he felt for his feline companions was not comparable to what he felt for his partners, and, if they felt threatened by it, then perhaps it was never meant to be.

Once you started dating, though, Satan couldn’t help but wonder if you went through the same struggles in your own relationships as he did in his. Being accused of not giving enough while actively trying to do what you thought was best.

Even worse, would you end up having the same insecurities?

He figures the best course of action is sharing his worries, instead of letting them build up to something that could damage what you have, and it is then when he learns that he is your first partner ever.

He’s surprised, obviously, but also glad and excited. Of course, unlike his idiotic brother, Satan doesn’t find comfort in being “your first”, but now you have the possibility of exploring your relationship together.

You make him feel hope about all the love he can give you.

Asmodeus

Although perhaps not the best at relationships, he’s certainly the most experienced. Thankfully, you knew what you were getting into when you starting dating him.

His powers are born from lust, a feeling he represents with his whole being, so his behaviour nurtures from it as well and he nourishes in its abundance. The search for pleasure is, for him, as natural as breathing air or drinking water, and the result is involving himself with all types of people.

From angels to demons, including humans (and perhaps some more), Asmo has flirted and spent more than time with anyone who has shown an active interest in him and revered him as the precious jewel he is. He is a beautiful demon who deserves to be looked at and finds satisfaction in being perceived as extraordinary.

However, don’t think everything he values in a relationship is physical.

While, yes, sex plays a big part in his life, that’s not what pleasure is all about.

There’s a deep satisfaction that comes from sharing your time and thoughts with a special someone; the feeling of complicity of vulnerability that only few people can provide.

Contrary to popular belief, Asmo has been in love before. Either monogamous or polygamous, relationships aren’t unknown to him, and he has enjoyed every single one of them.

Sadly, though, for one reason or another, all of those met a mournful end.

If he had to bet on a reason, he would blame it all on his ex-partners’ insecurities.

There are downsides to being superior to all around him, after all.

And then he meets you.

Being immune to his charming powers was what made him truly notice your presence as worthy to be appreciated, and not just as a body to be cut open and ravaged, but it was the way you loved him what truly cemented the emotional pleasure he felt around you.

You don’t need to tell him about the lack of previous partners because he already knew from the beginning.

He could see that your shyness wasn’t just an adorable trait that defined you, but also a result of ignorance and inexperience.

Honestly? He thinks is incredibly cute, but nothing to be ashamed of. And why aren’t you more excited? You got the best teacher possible!

Beelzebub

Most students at RAD think he’s simply uninterested in relationships because he’s never been known to have one. Sure, various students have gloated about sharing a bed with him every now and then, but who is going to ask him to make sure those stories are true? Or any of his brothers, for that matter?

Out of all Avatars, he’s probably one of the most unapproachables and one of the easiest to fall victim to.

His sheer size and his monotone voice are enough to put people in their place, but what actually discourages others to talk to him is the moment they hear his empty stomach or see his drooling mouth. His gaze seems lost and hazy, and, the more they look at him, the less safe they feel.

Of course, those are extreme situations, and none have happened in a long time, but some things are difficult to forget.

Although Beel has had sporadic relationships, none of them have been serious or sentimental enough to be taken seriously or remembered fondly. Instead, his focus has been set on his family, his (literal) personal growth through eating and exercising, and, lately, you.

It wasn’t until you came into the picture that others outside of the family and their group of close friends finally saw him in love, blushing out of nowhere and smiling like life made sense whenever you entered the room. His bottomless stomach grew quieter.

He never gave any particular thought to the possible ex-partners you could’ve had.

You are with him, now, aren’t you? He’ll treat you right and he’ll love you more than anyone has ever done before. That’s what’s most important.

He only learns about being your first boyfriend when you’re both walking home after fangol practice, holding hands. For some reason he can’t truly understand, maybe pure curiosity, he asks you if any of your previous partners was an athlete like him, and that’s when you tell him.

Beel raises his eyebrows for just a second before shrugging, and that’s the only response he gives.

It really doesn’t matter to him, besides being a reminder that he has to make things a tad bit better just for you.

He doesn’t plan on being the current boyfriend that set the standards too high, but still; you deserve the very best.

[losvroomvroom]

now that the poll has concluded i can provide the actual 100% accurate definitive ranking. the teams told me this themselves.

f1 teams ranked by how likely they are to start an onlyfans for their drivers.

Sauber. absolutely no question they are the victors here. they are already creating content that's on the verge of fetishistic (maple syrup piss kink video). they're making their hottest mechanics do somersaults for no reason. and also they have no morals. kick? stake? what's onlyfans compared to this.

Alpine. they were in talks with onlyfans re sponsorship last year. their drivers have the highest combined slut potential on the grid. a friend pointed out there's a non-zero chance briatore has an alonso sex tape from the 00s.

Racing Bulls. they have those boys doing literally whatever and the red bull torment nexus demands grist for the mill.

Aston Martin. fernando has already proved he has the flair of a poster and he's got incredible tattoos. lance is a sleeper hottie. aforementioned hypothetical alonso sex tape from the 00s.

Mercedes. but it's all fully clothed fetish content. driving old cars in silver head to toe latex suits, that type of thing. they let georgie get his ass out once a quarter.

Red Bull. if there's one thing red bull's going to do it's put their drivers in terrible situations. they would not do it to max but they would absolutely make their second driver do it if they thought it would help. "help what?" literally anything.

Haas. guenther!haas would be near the top of the list but it's just not in ayao's program of Haas Doing Haas Things sorry to say. the boys are so long as well. you can't get all of them in frame for the photos.

Williams. [carbono voice] we have too much Heritage. they might start the project, actually, since carbono are dedicated laborers in the yaoi factories by their own volition, but at some point someone looks at a photo of frank williams and then the whole thing is called off.

Ferrari. onlyfans is soooooo déclassé for ferrari. if they're selling nsfw content of their drivers, they're auctioning off softcore polaroids at an exclusive black-tie event and including an ironclad legal document to make sure the highest bidder can't share online.

McLaren. i really can't say it any better than @peachymayberry81: #zak brown is selfish and wants to keep his twinks to himself#he would surely violate HR policy and have them make a sex tape#but I don’t think it would be OF I think he would maybe screen it privately to his rich friends to brag about his twinks

note: not a poll about which teams SHOULD start an onlyfans. a poll about which team is most likely to actually do it.

[dcviated]

end of 2024 questions :: open

@wisdomchosen sent: 7(ish). Talk about some of your favorite threads that started this year!

I'd bring up how much I adore everything you and I have in the pipeline and already simmering on the stove, but that'd be too easy-

Starting off, even if it doesn't really count since so much of what we're doing is restarting several year old threads- everything I'm doing with Abby @cloudpools !!! Pinnacle of what I mean when I say I'm in things for the long run. She and I have been writing together for almost ten years. My first real tumblr writing partner. And now she's back and writing some more!

(follow Abby)(follow Abby)(follow Abby)(follow Abby)

We're kicking up tons of things, but most notable is probably the stuff with one of my one-off-turned-favored OCs from an eon ago with her's. The antics between Gurin and Blythe. Absolute garbage tier ship indulgence but we're allowed this. Suave yet stupid-smitten demon with the lil innocent gal whose archdemon master wants to ANNIHILATE his very being.

Looking back at it, half the year I was on hiatus from starting big threads for my exam. It was really the last few months things really picked up... and I got things started.

Like with @serandipity who enabled me to write more Diluc and has seriously kicked up my muse for them as a result. Putting him in the RF universe was way too obvious and expanding the lore to fit both ways has been fun. Also, arranged marriage. I'm almost ashamed to say I've never done that before? And having it be Diluc with Bianca has been an absolute treat. Disaster, I mean. She brings something out of him...

[couch-house]

AITA? My (30M) brother (27M) beat my ass because he thought my dad was dead

INFO: Technically he's my brother's dad too, but I don't like him

[nabaath-areng]

It's kinda funny looking back on old screenshots and edits I made 3-5 years ago because in a way they have changed a LOT yet at the same time also not all although the fact that my old computer could barely handle having FFXIV installed is kinda evident in hindsight lol

[trannyradfem]

lol this isn't a war, dude. This is literally just Tumblr, it's not going to hurt you. FFS if RFs are so dangerous how come I've been in the community for 6 years and I haven't detransitioned or killed myself yet?

I do care about other trans mascs considering I am one. And if I wanted to harm a tranny, I'd just harm myself, but I haven't felt the need to do that in over 8 years.

The transandrophobia tag is absolutely riddled with trans women shitting all over that very solidarity you want to preserve. Do you think trans women who go around calling trans mascs "theyfabs" give a shit about whether or not they hurt their target or any other trans masc onlookers? If anything, that's the intent. If criticism from radfems is fascism and hatred, then what is this petulant shit? Hitting us where they KNOW it hurts? That's somehow totally forgivable and excusable, but questioning why that happens isn't? Do me a favor and look at the "baeddel" tag, and tell me how much solidarity you find there.

You even admit that there's a TON of them, and you've never asked why, or called any of them TERFs, or asked why they'd risk tearing the trans community apart over it?

Seriously. Think about it. Atp y'all have already decided what a TERF is and how to wholly deplatform us on sight regardless of what it is we have to say, and you know what to expect from the worst of us by now. But you let other trans people treat you like this... for the sake of unity? Are the trans women who sling the word "theyfab" in an attempt to trigger dysphoria going to side with you when you need it?

Because I can tell you right now; if any law was passed that forced transmascs into the horror of the Handmaids Tale, every single Radfem would not rest until that horrific reality was nothing more than a past nightmare, and we got full autonomy over our bodies back. Sure, call it demeaning that our solidarity comes from the shared experience of birth sex, but at the end of the day? No matter how fucking awful you treat us, we still give a damn about your fundamental rights. THAT'S why I haven't offed myself or detransitioned. Because at the end of the day it's my body and my choice. Just because people criticize my choices from the outside on a purely surface level, it doesn't mean a damn thing if I'm still free to make those choices. And turns out, most RFs are actually really decent people if you stop punching before asking questions like a fucking cop! Seriously, just try talking to us. A normal conversation. You'll find that 90% of the shit you think we believe just straight up isn't true because you guys can't tell the difference between a trans hating conservative grifter and a hurt leftist woman who's tired of a lifetime of the bepenised having the last say on EVERYTHING.

Compare that to trans women trying to say trans mascs don't experience oppression at all and try to silence us. Is that them showing they give a damn about anyone's rights but their own? That's causing harm to a vulnerable minority. Why do they get forgiveness time and time again-- even the ones who joke about being literal nazis just a few years ago--, when most of you won't even hear out one of your brothers who was forced down this path by none other than yourselves with your own hatred? How exactly do you think I and so many other FTMs-- so many that you have to directly mention us-- even got here???

I got tired of being casually bullied and having my dysphoria triggered by transfems, by being casually sexually harassed and gaslit about it, and spoke up about it, and forgot to kiss ass because I'm autistic. That's it. No derogatory language, just a recap of what happened without apologizing for it. It escalated so badly that people came to my fucking HOUSE, people tried to fucking murder me by taking away government supplied disability supports. Is that trans justice? Trying to murder a disabled trans masc who just wanted to be heard, just like you? Yknow, the first time I was mass doxxed and harassed, it was back in 2015 because I dared to defend Sophie Labelle. The creator of Assigned Male. It fucking broke me when it happened not only again, but by the very people I trusted the most to take my concerns seriously and not stretch them into a fucked up narrative I wasn't remotely trying to make back then. All that did was prove that the "fucked up narrative" might've been right all along. You all did that. THAT'S why trans radfems exist. And the more you all target, harass, and excommunicate us, the more of us there will be. We don't just disappear when you guys do that, afterall. We continue existing, and we always will so long as this keeps happening.

This imaginary TERF war is tired and built on bigotry and lies. And the more you point the finger at us for the problems that aren't caused by us, the worse the community is going to get, and the more me's you're going to see. I'm begging and pleading y'all to stop being so reactionary for your own good, because it's not like I'm ever coming back. Posting this benefits me absolutely not at all, nor does it unique put me in danger. Not from radfems, anyways.

I beg you, think critically. Ask yourself these harmless questions, because you should be doing this anyways if you claim to be any level of intersectional; who does this benefit? Who does this harm?

uvb76fan is posting in this tag talking about all the ways trans men have it “worse”, while misrepresenting the statistic she is citing. most likely banking on no one looking closer or reading the links.

this person is a terf. if you search trans on her blog it is immediately clear, i am not using terf loosely she is literally actually a terf.

we cannot let our weariness at not being heard by some of our community push us into the sick and malformed arms of transmisogyny and radical feminism, these people do not care about us at all, they are trying to harm every single one of us. our solidarity with trans women, men and people as whole should cause us to slam hard on the breaks. no matter how many trans women you see being antitransmasculine it does not mean that there are not so many more who are our genuine allies, do not let the algorithm pushing hateful person after hateful person your way skew your understandings. the transphobes want dissent, they want us to tear each other apart. we do not need to contribute to the harm to have ours lessened. (causing harm to a vulnerable minority is never morally correct no matter what got you there in the first place. also straight up trans women are easy to love and are inherently deeply deserving of community solidarity, and fascism (which terfs are) should not have any appeal whatsoever no matter how hurt you are but i digress.)

on another note: we cannot and must not reactively take on the mentalities of trans rad fems, no gender in the trans community needs to be the most oppressed to be taken seriously and given respect in our community, the equality in our suffering is immense and must be acknowledged without each group needing to prove we are the most victimized to get the care and community support we need. this is harmful no matter who is doing it. we absolutely must nip this kind of thinking in the bud.

push back on terfs in this tag everywhere you can, and if there is a reason you cannot comment or reblog to shut them down, block them on sight.

art vs artist 2024

[wandering-free-and-queer]

Made two bracelets today! Sadly I can't find one of the things I need to fully finish them properly but they're fully constructed!

The first one is Weather, it's five golden charms set on a beautiful sky blue hemp cord in a simple square knot macrame. The cloud, Sun, pentacle, moon, and lightning bolt charms are spaced equally, giving them each an equal influence in the piece.

The second is more simple but no less refined, the centerpiece is a lovely antique silver Tree of Life charm, with richly stained wooden beads flanking it to either side. No specific Intention here, but a blank slate for you to dedicate to a tree spirit or forest near you, in the hopes that you'll find a way to personalize it to your craft.

✧ I started the Art vs. Artist trend last year, and I want to continue to make it a tradition every year. It's a nice way to reflect on the art I made for the year, and my year overall as well! And all things considered- I had a pretty great year! 💖 See y'all next year! ✧

personally i hope they leave solas' romantic history as vague as possible mostly bc i genuinely dont think its relevant or neccesary at all and it just adds another layer of mess to a situation thats already messy enough as it is. but if they do go down that route i am desperately hoping they just reaffirm him being a canonically terrible boyfriend who's never held a stable relationship longer for like. idk. 20 years at best lol. i think that would do WONDERS for his character actually
