I genuinely remain confounded by the two sides to the Tech debate in this fandom. I've seen so many people on the Tech Lives side proclaim that they will be attacked, or insulted or made fun of for their ideas, all while they argue that those who see Tech as dead do so only because they want him dead since he's "autistic".

I've seen people on the Tech is Dead side go out of their way to comment unnecessarily on people who want him back with their beliefs on his death. This is unnecessary, just as it is unnecessary for those who believe or want Tech alive to make assumptions about those who believe the opposite.

That multiple people believe that is why someone may believe he's dead is confounding. The idea that Tech may be dead is not predicated on a hatred for autistic people, or autistic like characters. It isn't malicious for people to either want him alive, or to have accepted his death.

Frankly, it is tiring how the main focus of Tech's entire being since season two is that he died, and he's potentially autistic (The Crossing included, he never has been outright confirmed as such). He is so much more than that, and deserves to have people focus on him aside from just his death.

Curate your fandom experience by muting words or tags that may upset you.

#As a fan of Tech (which should be clear if anyone's read my fics) I'm so tired of this being the sole topic for Tech #It wasn't malicious intent to have him die just because he could be autistic #People aren't out here yearning for his death just because he's potentially autistic #Be polite to people on either side #Do not interact with one side if it upsets you into believing ideas about that side without actual communication with that side #Tech stans have become very tiring #I miss him of course but the way his fans have reacted and treated people within the fandom since season two has made it tiring to engage #Then that does not even include all the drama from both sides of the ship he's potentially part of #It's all turned very exhausting even when I've muted all terms related to this entire discussion #If the fans could think of more than just his death so often that would be nice

Forever thinking about this panel

He will NOT be accepting hugs for any mundane reason and if you try he will react like he's being hunted for sport

But I am ALSO thinking about

He will give a little sympathetic pat on the back........ if you're feeling down ......

Alfonse physical affection seems to vary and is situational 👍

#fire emblem #feh #he's better than me tbh but that is exclusively bc i am so autistic about touch #like i get distrected if i'm upset and you try to give a supportive touch even something small like rubbing the back #and really the best thing to do is give me space unless if i say otherwise. and i act as if that is EVERYONE'S default #which results in: 🧍 <- he is 100% supportive and concerned and cares for your plight #still i think these panels are so interesting bc one shows a general baseline/boundary #and it's easy to extrapolate he's like that across the board. but also i think it's interesting that #he will give a little pat on the back. like i would never think to write him/portray that otherwise #when i write alfonse and touch he is very reactive. never thinking and/or daring to initiate #which i think so much about w sharena too like it's SO clear she is so physically affectionate #like that first panel is from a comic where SHE IS.#i am just. always thinking about it.#AH ACTUALLY BEFORE I END THAT THOUGHT. the fact that whole comic is about hugs/differing boundaries #and the implication that sharena had to learn alfonse's boundaries probably the hard way #i am just. ALWAYS thinking about sibling incompatibilities where they love each other anyway.#just... ouuughghhh..........#fe alfonse #fe kiran #sharena

Workforce B7 Au

B'Elanna and Seven start living together out of concern for B'Elanna living by herself so far along in her pregnancy (B'Elanna initially takes this as an insult, that Seven doesn't think she's a good mother because Seven does not phrase her concerns well but she is genuinely concerned about B'Elanna and her child.) They both mutually agree that if they find a romantic partner they'll just live separately again but as the months wear on they realize they've become more and more attatched to each other, their feelings taking a romantic turn which frightens them both. B'Elanna still goes to that diner place Tom works at and considers them friends. He eventually asks her out and B'Elanna, thinking that she's probably being a burden to Seven and confused by her feelings towards the other woman, accepts though she doesn't have romantic feelings for Tom. Seven is upset by this though she knows she shouldn't be so she tries not to express it but eventually they have an argument which ends in them both admitting that they like each other romantically. They hesitantly kiss, hold hands, ask if they want to really commit to this...yes. The answer is yes. Then strange men in a ship tell them they're members of an organization called Starfleet or whatever?? Then they're taken to sickbay and their old memories return. This leads to both of them having private freak outs about the fact that they felt so strongly attracted to each other and so...happy, with one another when all of the more complicating aspects of their relationship weren't an issue. This is a double edged sword for B'Elanna specifically because without all the history between them she truly didn't feel any attraction towards Tom and if she's being honest with herself - when was the last time she did...? Dun dun dun! You know this episode ends with B'Elanna staring out a window or something, wondering about what she should do...what it all means....

#B'Elanna #Seven of Nine #B7 #B'Elanna Torres #Seven of Nine: (trying to be helpful) -something condescending-#B'Elanna: ??????#<- It's that on loop for awhile until they learn to communicate better and Seven actually DOES try to understand B'Elanna #She doesn't know about being borg so she just thinks she has a lot of trouble with talking to people and B'Elanna's like 'hey it's not like #I'm a whiz at it' (That's very clear to me.) Hey! Oh - you're joking? (...Half joking.) Well it wasn't half bad then~#<- the start of their good times era where they become much closer #B'Elanna post this memory regain able to remember how nice it was to be with Seven which directly contrasts her relationship with Tom which #mainly makes her anxious and self conscious...remembering the long talks with Seven whenthey were supposed to be sleeping...remembering #Seven coming home with like ten different baby things because she read that they were the best on the market #B'Elanna 'joking' that she's just being crazy...typical her! when she's upset and Seven telling her that she isn't crazy - she #trusts that there's a REASON B'Elanna. Tell her what it is. (pause) please tell her what it is.#a month later B'Elanna 'jokes' that she's just being crazy...typical her! to Tom and Tom smiles and says he kinda signed up for crazy when #they got married didn't he? <- B'Elanna's heart breaks a little bit but she smiles thinly and laughs without vigor #st voyager #st voyager art #bea art tag

Thinks about Perry covered in the blood of his enemies and swoons

#LOGICALLY I know that actual killing probably isn't part of OWCA's philosophy. BUT. A girl can imagine in her head #Her blorbo fixing his bloody tie as he strolls out of a darkened room full of corpses.#IT'S POETRY. RIGHT??#Dealing with Doof is more like his dayjob. His REAL job is going out and doing crazy save the world shit #i.e. Stopping assassination plots. Doing his OWN assassination. Taking on several armed men at once.#Perry is basically Eggsy from Kingsman except mute. That's it that's the point I'm trying to make here #Or Harry. Either one works.#OR. Or. Loid Forger. DEFINITELY get Perry vibes from him.#Basically any hot secret agent who kills for a living that's what I'm. Yeah #Anyway in canon........er. In human Perry canon? He does not kill. He doesn't believe in that #Esp bc of parent trauma. AND bc if the boys ever found out Perry killed someone they'd never forgive him #He does have morals.#But in lesser canon. Non canon. AU of the AU. WHATEVER. He is capable of killing someone #Phin and Ferb would definitely be upset if they found out but they'd be slightly less upset to hear that Perry's only ever killed #truly EVIL people. Not 'evil' like Heinz. Actual scum of the earth kinds of people #Perry's like Loid and Yor combined. Clearing the earth of terrible awful people and also being a suave secret agent spy #Anyway I'm done now sorry I needed to ramble about that for a bit. LOL #PnF #Phineas and Ferb #Perry the platypus #Human Perry #Shima speaks

U know when ur brain is Like That and whatever it is you have to eat is suddenly Illegal???

#the duality of fran #ughhhhh i am upset with myself #i have issues with leftovers. just generally #so mostly i only ever cool things i can tolerate as leftover #i have the last batch of that pumpkin soup #that i do NOT want to eat and its all gross and it's not like. rotten #but trying to force myself to eat it sounds like hell rn #but also guilt complex abt food yknow????#im not doing anyonr any favours by just skipping lunch bc my brain hates the thought of it rn #i think. I'm just gonna have to toss it. eaf a granola bar (i always carry some for this reason)#and then. try to forgive myself. eat a proper dinner #i think i hate depression food obessions more than i hate the actual depression sometimes #ughhh and i have to meal plan #i go insane if i eat the same thing always but i also get so nervous trying new foods #bc my mother lives in my brain and yells at me anytime anything turns out bad or where i cant force myself to eat it #i only ever try things that im 90% sure I'll like #And still.#unfortunately. i am realizing my mother left me with major food anxieties #just not in the usual ED way. i got the guilt complex food waste if i don't clear my plate im sinning way #if leftovers go bad? or produce molds before i can use it? im satan incarnate #BUT ONLY ME. EVERYONE ELSE IS FINE. THIS STANDARD ONLY APPLIES TO ME

Just making a general post real quick in response to an ask.

When I say I'm anti-ai I mean I'm against any sort of AI that steals from others or would otherwise be used to put people out of a job. I don't feel like having an elaborate conversation about the positives and negatives of AI and all that, so I'll state this as plainly as possible.

I don't like AI art. I don't like AI voice impersonations. I don't like any sort of AI that has to steal stuff from people without their consent in order to function. That is literally it.

I'm not against ALL AI. I don't think people that are okay with AI in general should be burned at the stake or something. I'm just an artist and writer that doesn't like AI being used in CREATIVE SPACES. That's it.

I didn't think I would have to clarify this but, here you go, for anyone that was bothered.

#to the person who sent the ask #hopefully this clears things up #I answered you in this general post #because I didn't want to risk people getting upset at you #if they didn't like what you said. Think of this as me keeping you anonymous #I'm sorry if you see me as a “guilt-tripper” but you made that assumption based on minimal knowledge of my character #like. VERY minimal knowledge #you know nothing about who I am as a person or what the depth of my opinion was #you just saw me putting “fuck ai” in my tags and assumed that I meant ALL AI #which isn't an unreasonable assumption. it's a vague statement. But the ONLY reason I use vague tags is because it reaches more people #plus if you ACTUALLY look in the fuck ai tag it's mainly about AI art and such #so to just automatically label me as a guilt-tripper instead of trying to express that you respectfully disagree with my opinion #or what you THOUGHT was my opinion anyway #was something I really didn't appreciate #that being said #I'm not interested in turning this into some sort of conversation.#please don't respond to this directly #I've voiced my opinion on the matter. That's where this ends.#anyway extra tags that you can ignore//#artists on tumblr #small artist #oc artist #anti ai art #anti ai writing #anti ai voices #support human artists #human artist #fuck ai art #fuck ai writing #anti ai

ExU Calamity is CritRole's Rogue One because who endures is the one rogue.

#For legal purposes: this is a joke I'm making bc I am emotional and upset in the BEST way.#Seriously. Don't explain to me what Rogue One is and the actually narrative and thematic resonance. I love Rogue One so I know.#I have a post somewhere about hoping this is about ensuring the war can be struggled against and stopped instead of just clear annihilation #Critical Role things #CR spoilers #EXU spoilers #CR

i feel like i should start making more of an effort, when i talk about something in a piece of media being Upsetting to me, to distinguish between 'cathartic' upsetting and 'gave me psychic damage' upsetting. sometimes i mean OUGH OW MY FEELINGS THIS FUCKS ME UP IN A MEANINGFUL AND RESONANT WAY, MY LIFE IS ENRICHED FOR BECOMING AWARE OF IT and sometimes i mean that it is genuinely distressing and i want to shake the creators and ask what the fuck they were thinking

#whosebaby talks #blog policy #this goes double when it comes to pieces of media to which i have both reactions lmao #i worry sometimes that not being clear about it makes it come across as if i'm saying 'something containing upsetting subject matter is Bad #when in fact a lot of upsetting subject matter is critical to depict; diversely so and often #and i am fiercely protective of the rep that resonates with me #which a lot of people are extremely quick to label as A Disrespectful Depiction absolutely no matter how it's done bc they want it erased #and use 'well it's only valid if it's done *respectfully*' as the Shirley Exception; with no intention of ever letting one be Allowed #but in spite of that there *are* absolutely fucking horrible and incredibly disrespectful ways for Upsetting Subject Matter to be depicted #and that deserves well-informed discussion and criticism; starting from an understanding of the actual purposes of fiction #and what infrastructure and language and framing and technique is used to achieve those purposes #and sometimes the purposes of a particular use are fucking awful! and executed in ways designed to cause real damage + get away with it!#so when i'm talking about something being Upsetting in the psychic damage sense; i'm referring to that #and the fact that not only is it infuriating and upsetting to witness that process in action #it amplifies the already deeply emotionally loaded subject matter; which may already require selfcare to engage with even when cathartic #and then yanks away the catharsis and just leaves you blasted in the face by uncushioned unvarnished Oh Right This Horrible Thing Exists #Thanks for Shoving My Face Straight into Boiling Acid Asshole #anyway complicated feelings about it but yeah i feel like i should try to be clearer lmao #(this isn't just about depictions of SA; and abuse in the sense most people think of first when they hear the word)#(although it comes up in that context often)#(see: Big Screan at pretty much everything with the talking animals in sd/mi but especially the fucking asylum lmao)

MADS! Thoughts on the Circe Saga?? :00

I'm here now, Niko!!! I answer now!!!

Many thoughts!!!

Honestly, the way he sings "twelve long years" fucked me up. He genuinely sounds like he's about to fucking cry and it fucks me UP!!!!

Silly thing but I wish they brought the pig dog toy that Circe tossed in the first version of Puppeteer.

Hermes is a fucking mad lad and I love it >:D he's just scuttling about everywhere!!!

I thought the "Imagination" for Moli and the kind of video game fight was quite neat!!! Wasn't expecting it but neat!

And I still love "...I don't think I follow?" He's an Asexual/demisexual wifeguy.😂 (Odysseus ofc, :P Not Jay)

If you want analysis, It'll come!!! Just absorbing right now 😌

#I've seen people upset about Jay “erasing what actually happened” or not adding the fact that they stay a year. but I don't blame #him for not adding it. As it's complex and well. this happens to Odysseus TWICE😭 And I think he's saving the more upsetting part #for Calypso's saga :'D #Mad rambles #shot by odysseus #ask #nikoisme #honesty good on Jay for that “hoax” in a way with his “I didn't know I could write spicy” to get people guessing only for it to not #end up as such! Also with it on Valentine's day. I was nervous at first if the fandom would have piss on the poor comprehension about #such scenes but it's clear cut and I'm thankful for that!!!

I can't go five minutes in DW fandom without people being just atrociously mean about things that I love with the blissful unawareness of majority mainstream opinion holders that the people they're being mean about are like. In the space with them. And this in a space full of ardent fans of arguably some of the most esoteric obscure side stuff that everyone else disdains or doesn't even know. And I'm having fun for the most part but also like. It's just exhausting, constantly goddamn exhausting.

#this is about moffat and eleven #in case that wasn't clear #megan whines into the empty abyss of cyberspace #i'm not gonna say that Lawrence Miles in particular doesn't have every reason to hate Moffat #or that as an EDA fan first and foremost I don't also side eye the fuck out of a lot of his early arc plots #but Moffat wrote *characters* in a way that no one before or since does #everyone droning on about rtd found family has nothing on 11 and 12 era character relationships #also yeah it is genuinely annoying and upsetting that people are STILL going on and on and on and on about ~bad vibes~ ~misogyny~ whatever #like that's just your opinion man #and I think certain fans would genuinely be shocked to actually acknowledge that some people just straight up disagree with them #and straight up have a different experience with that era of the show #and don't share the opinions that got so saturated with so little pushback that the arguments are by now parodies of themselves #like do you hate eleven's era because you formed that opinion yourself or do you hate eleven's run because hbomb made a video?#do you feel the way you feel because you came to that opinion or because others in fandom 'warned' you about moffat before you started?#also like ngl it just straight up hurts my feelings #it's mean! it's just really mean and I'm tired of getting my feelings hurt in situations that are meant to be fun!#I lived through this ten years ago when I'd watch Dr Who and then get on the internet to talk about it #and every post would be just endless bad faith nitpicking and tearing the episode apart #anyway gonna watch power of the daleks now and remind myself not to engage w nuwho fandom

HOLD ON YOU CAN'T JUST SAY THAT NANA 1... WHAT DO YOU MEAN

#i'm really upset rn that i can't figure out which way she's talking about the unrequited love going?#she's talking about nana 2 getting married to ren and trying to help her pick up the certificates #but does she mean 'maybe... yes this must be unrequited love' about her not loving nana 2 back???#or does she think SHE loves nana 2 but nana 2 doesn't love HER back?#or is she actually just referring to ren and nana 2???#in context i feel it makes more sense that she means she does believe nana 2 might love her now #but she doesn't feel the same which would be SO SAD #but unless nana 1 has changed quite a bit character-wise i feel it'd be almost more in-character for her to think she loved nana 2 #and it wasn't returned??#but then at the same time she's gone through some shit and it never really got fully resolved between them when things went sour???#so if their feelings for each other aren't matching up totally anymore i can kinda see that too?#and it's like i was thinking... that nana 1 had to grow up in certain ways and finds nana 2 too immature in certain ways now??#arghhh this is why reading fan translations can be rough sometimes i feel they aren't always as clear #i will have to wait for the library to loan me this volume to check that version too....#13readsmanga #nana spoilers #nana #p

THAT'S ALL HE WANTED?!?!?!?!?! HE JUST WANTED TO PLAY SECURITY BREACH?!?!?!?!?!

Ruin Sun/Moon kidnapped Sun and continuously berated him over July 16th and not actively going after Lunar...JUST TO ASK TO PLAY SECURITY BREACH WITH MOON!!

Can't believe this. I was SO ready to find some stuff to talk about here, but it was all just to tease the next gameplay video.

#the sun and moon show #i hope it's clear enough that i'm not actually mad or upset #it was just such intense build-up for something silly

pst pst you want to let me into your selective phd program so so badly. I have not spent copious amounts of time becoming chronically ill and posting about stupid TV shows on the Internet. I am a viable and good candidate.

#so upset that i still want this because i HAD a 4.0 then i got a couple a minuses for really ableist bullshit things #while going through the worst quarter of my life. then crashed so hard when i had so much to do and now I'm like. well it's all long shots #but if things had just gone slightly better. what if.#incoherents #also to be clear i don't actually think my grades are the issue. i have never been published regarding research nor done anything #significant in it #but thats bc my schooling was all community college -> quarantine -> in Ghana

Okay, Nardo returning for a quick moment because I kinda just want to get this out of the way

Please don't send us stuff assuming to know how relationships work within our system. I know you guys probably mean well but don't send rude messages whenever other headmates hijack and post on my blog. It's all in good fun and we poke fun at each other all the time. I make fun of my other headmates the same way they make fun of me. It's just how we bond and mess around

#I know we have the running gag of me saying “GET OFF MY BL0G!!!” but that's all it really is. A running gag #Just something I wanted to make clear #I noticed some people getting mixed signals and I wanted to make sure we're all on the same page #And that could partially be my fault for not clarifying better #I'm not mad/gen but I do want you guys to understand that nothing posted by others on here is done out of malice towards me #I'm a system host making me co-con very often. If anything would've actually upset me I wouldn't have let it be posted #Anyways hope you guys understand what I'm saying #Leo talks #system stuff

the implications....

folie a deux meaning / folie a deux album cover / pete's bear hat(s)

#myevilposts #pete wentz #also the teddy bear rug would be fun to mention in this discussion but these ones are more serious.#the thing with pw is that sometimes he does things that are so devious and strategic and genius and sneaky and poignant #and other times it just seems that way and was actually just him being silly.#this goes both ways btw.#like a lot of mania era stuff i feel was mocked as him being silly but was actually deep and then a lot of older stuff #that people obsess over dissecting was actually Not That Deep on his account at least.#it's kinda not his fault that he's a cartoon character. kinda. but he knows how to lean into it.#pw understands camp better than 99% of users on this website tbh.#fall out boy #also pete and bebe wearing matching bear hats during hiatus. is like exactly what i'm talking about. lol.#the implication being that the bear/becoming a bear represents embracing the madness and becoming one with the grizzly bear #that the human in the bear costume is carrying on the folie cover.#i feel like it's not a coincidence that the guy looks like pete too. it might be but i always figured it was intentional.#the grizzly bear/real life equivalent to the madness of folie a deux as a condition is open to interpretation more #i think. obviously it could represent the co dependence between pete and patrick. but it could also #represent pete's marriage as a whole to the band/his work.#i think it's most noteworthy again that he wore the bear hat matching with bebe DURING HIATUS.#similarly to the stump club shirt i feel like it's pretty clear he was incredibly torn up about the hiatus.#maybe it's that pete had a co dependent relationship with his public image/identity within the scope of fob's fame.#A LOT of black cards calls back to fob / is in response to or commentary of his fame from fob.#because of course it did/was. fob was intrinsic to his celebrityhood. and that celebrityhood obviously was intrinsic to him.#this is not to downplay the other aspects of his identity. the opposite actually.#especially considering that his public image was so skewed and dumbed down and he was rightfully very upset about that #and that is very prevalent/important/vital i think to understanding things like black cards as a whole.
