Well, I have the haedcanon that Sonic likes to be petted behind the ears or etc, but he doesn't like to show it (he has a reputation to take care of xd).

Sometimes it's allowed but only if it's Tom or Maddie (privileges).

If someone else comes up to him to try it, it will make him uncomfortable and he will pull away a bit.

(some people in town have tried it before because they thought he was a cat or something, but some people still don't get it and still see him as a "pet"... which he hates and makes him overthink it).

Twitter must not see this : "v

the worst thing about coming from a family full of generational abuse is how isolated you feel.

there is no one safe to turn to, because you can never tell how they're going to perceive your issues, or their own.

it's human nature to want to feel close to the people you grew up with, and to seek out some sort of solace within the learned familial relationships that have developed over time.

but human beings aren't memories, even if we are made of them, and after a certain point you just have to stop and recognize the fact that you can't mourn something you never had in the first place.

Valve went through and banned a whole bunch of bots yesterday and when I last checked a couple hours ago, the Casual servers are still 99% actual people! If you want to try out TF2 DO IT NOW while you have the chance! Believe me when I say that having matches this clear of bots is RARE. They'll be back in force inevitably in probably a couple days so the window of opportunity here is small. Take the chance to play a normal round of TF2 Casual while you can!

being anti I*real is not antisemitic btw, I*real is a colonist state and it shouldn't exist. the entirety of I*real is stolen land, you can't be pro Palestine without being anti I*real

The fact that Judaism is trending because of both the wave of bomb threats on synagogues and Bradley Cooper's Antisemitism Adventure (his huge fake prosthetic nose, and him basically stealing the story from a Jewish man) is so infuriating and so exhaustingly typical.

The fact that I see Judaism trending on Tumblr and immediately think "oh no. Something Bad is happening to us." We're never trending cause it's fucking good. I never get to be excited, it's just cold dread.

The fact that Antisemitism is getting worse everyday and the only ones who ever talk about it are other Jews. The fact that no one else fucking cares. The only ones who support us are other Jews. Even when gentiles talk about Nazis or white supremacists they don't want to help us. We're just their prop, the canary in the coal mine and the perfect victim.

The fact that everyone's uncomfortable with Jews still being here. Reminding them of things they'd rather forget.

The fact that it'd be easier for them if we were all dead. Then they could tell stories about our people, dressed in offensive caricatures, without us making a fuss.

I was just thinking about how canon!merlin is basically incapable of being normal about arthur. and if they ever ended up together, I think he'd do something weird at least once at some point, like. just fucking bite arthur out of the blue while they're in bed or something. I'm not talking about a sexy bite either. I'm talking an "I've succumbed to the intrusive thoughts in my head" kind of bite. tell me I'm wrong

You don't understand how Dream and Hob's friendship in the comic is important to me. They're both men in the 90s. They can't tell each other "omg bestie, ily sm" because it's not how it works for them. Dream is the KING and Hob is a man literally from the Middle Ages, their worldviews don't work like that. When Hob dared to call Dream his friend, Dream was offended. He just couldn't accept how HE can have basic needs like a nice drink once in a while. But after some (a lot) time he realised he also enjoys Hob's company and then met him in 1989 and allowed himself, the ruler of dreams and nightmares, to have a friend. (from now on, comic spoilers) And when he has to go to hell, when there's a chance he won't come back, he meets some people and then he goes to Hob, so he won't be worried he missed their appointment. So he won't be worried about him. Also when he knows he will die soon, he meets with Hob. He meets with him for their last drink. Hob doesn't even know what's going on, he's just suprised and relieved to see his oldest friend. A friend whose name he doesn't even know. A friend who is the only certain thing in his life. They talk like they always do. Because they do know each other for ages. And when Hob says he wants a guy who killed his gf to feel guilty for it, Dream makes the guy feel guilty. He can manipulate peoples thoughts, make them think what he wants them to think, and uses this power for Hob, even if his friend won't know about it. Dream is not a type of person who does things for free. But he did it for his friend. And when Dream walks out, Hob runs after him, telling him he can sense something is wrong and that he is worried about him. And then Dream smiles. He smiles because that situation, their last meeting, is the first time they both showed how much they care about each other.

Whenever I get a particularly nasty message, I always check to see if they're following me first. Nine times out of ten, they're not. But they're also, unfortunately, the same people who feel entitled to send me multiple messages in a row, most of them heavily steeped in the language of moralization and purity.

Like whenever I talk about painkillers or pain management, I always get a handful of well-meaning people who are maybe new to my blog or are just young, asking me if I've tried diet/exercise/meditation, etc.

Sometimes I'll respond to them. Other times I'll just ignore them because I get those kinds of messages so often it's like white noise, and maybe part of me hopes if they stick around on my blog, they'll learn it through exposure via my incessant bitching.

When you see me responding to someone offering that kind of advice, it's either because I'm at my fucking limit or because I'm hoping it's a teachable moment and an otherwise seemingly nice person might unlearn some harmful biases.

The people who don't follow me are not interested in any kind of conversation on the subject. They do, however, feel the most qualified to tell me, someone they didn't know existed until one of my posts crossed their dash, how to manage my life, everything I'm doing wrong, and why I'm a bad person.

And for them, my disability is proof that I am a bad person because they view health as a moral issue.

If you're sick, it's because you don't exercise enough, don't eat the right foods, don't pray enough, don't do enough. They genuinely believe that if they say and do all the right things, like a Good Person, they'll never get sick.

It's their security blanket against the harsh reality that anyone is one bad day away from disability. One faulty gene, one bad infection, one bad accident away from a life-long diagnosis. And if they do get sick, it's a test. A challenge to be overcome with Willpower as they learn the True Meaning of Life.

It can never just be a simple fact of life that sickness happens. That disability exists without a moral reason.

And it's suffocating.

Day in, day out. Folks who don't know me from fucking Eve telling me I'm being punished. Not always as outright as that. They don't always use that word. But sometimes I appreciate it when they do because at least then they're being honest. They're not couching it in the softer language of leftist circles. Not hiding it behind concern.

Because the truth is, there are just as many folks who think they're liberal and enlightened who'd be happy if disabled people just stopped existing. They don't like thinking about us because it makes them think about themselves. About their own fragility and mortality, and they hate that. They hate that there's something they can't control with their thoughts and actions. That they can't moralize their way out of.

Honestly, it's a relief when people are just cunts about it because I can hit the block button, safe in the knowledge that they were never the kind of person who would see me as a person. But when it's some 20yo kid with their pronouns, orientation, and "ACAB" in their profile spouting the same kind of moralization, sometimes even with the language of eugenics, it feels like such a betrayal. Like a loss.

And perhaps if I wasn't multiply disabled, I'd have the energy to pull them back. To tell them why they're wrong and hope like hell they realize what they're doing is harmful. But then, if I wasn't disabled, they wouldn't be messaging me, so I wouldn't be dealing with it.

I wouldn't be expected to use my existence as a teachable moment to spoon-feed them compassion. But I am, and I do. When I can. Not always with the grace that's warranted. Not always with the thought and compassion I ought to. (And I don't; I acknowledge that. I'm prone to anger and off-the-cuff remarks that are hurtful too. Though I try to keep most of it to myself or save it for therapy.)

Basically, if you've made it this far through the TED talk, don't be fucking cunts to disabled people. Don't tell chronically ill people to try yoga. Don't moralize pain relief. Suffering is not noble.

You need to kill the cop and the priest in your head telling you otherwise.

And also if you're the nice people sending me nice messages. Thank you. It helps cushion all of *gestures* this.

JENNIE / SOLO REMIX @ BORN PINK IN LA (230826)

[falloutnewnobody]

sorry to rant but i hate tiktok so much there's a trend where people go to art exhibits and stand in front of works they think they could've made (which in and of itself i hate) but i saw a tiktok today of someone doing that trend in front of (untitled) portrait of Ross in LA and i actually felt physically ill. i wont link the video bc i dont want op getting harassed or anything and i'd feel gross about sharing it.

and like multiple people commented how fucking disrespectful and ignorant that was and proceeded to get flooded with hundreds of replies of people (including the op) being like "lmao its just a pile of candy its not that deep," or "just because it apparently has a meaning that doesnt mean that it's not stupid and/or easy enough for a toddler to do,"

which like... first of all i'm disgusted at the disrespect people are showing to such a beautiful, meaningful, and tactful piece is insane. i'm actually gobsmacked.

secondly like, yeah, everyone can create art dipshit it came free with your fucking humanity. just because a piece doesn't require a lot of technical skill (and in this example i think the simplicity of execution plays into the themes and message of the piece) doesnt make it or the themes it conveys any less valuable or interesting. part of the point of art museums is to consider beauty and meaning in both the innovative and mundane.

i don't even have an argument like i'm just apalled by the kinda shit these people are saying and how it reflects on society that so many people are insulting such a powerful and emotionally driven piece in such a vitriolic and unwilling to learn way.

My first ever face to face encounter with a onepiece fan that treats everything too seriously

It was...wow...pretty out of nowhere as well

Every new sentence and take they spitted out was like an opposite of my own, like we were watching two totally different shows

Tomas asks you to come closer. "Is my new perfume good?" a silly excuse to hold you close. And you do, your warm body against his one. "You smell amazing, as always, tho." He kisses the crown of your forehead, his big hands on your back. "I know, stupid idea. I just wanted to hold you close." Tomas chuckles, voice dripping for embarrassment. That's when you decide to grab his cheeks, looking into those clear blue pools that are his eyes. And you smooch him, lips locked to his ones with a force you are both not used to. But you don't stop there. You start to kiss all over his face and up and down his neck. Tomas is stuck in his place, only being able to receive this whirlwind of affection. "Damn, you are the cutest man ever." You say before delivering one last kiss on his, now reddish, lips. You leave Tomas there stuck on his feet while you walk out the room, still blabbering on how beautiful he looked in your hands. What you won't see is his cheeks getting to a dangerous level of red, one of his knees buckling so his arms have to rest on the furniture, muscles tense to keep his weight up. Tomas' mouth shaped in a 'O', still gasping from your actions. Maybe he could reuse this idea one more time.

I need to vent for a second, since people keep asking me for updates. And yes, this is a personal vent.

My life is a mess, as I've said in several of my author's notes on all of my stories. And while I owe absolutely no explanations to anyone or anything for any reason, *maybe* this will put things in perspective for some of you impatient folk.

My grandfather is battling stage four cancer and it's spread in his lungs. I don't have a lot of time left with him, and I'm watching this news destroy my mom and grandmother. I want to see him as often as I can, which is not leaving me with a lot of writing time.

I have to get another biopsy because the benign tumor in my head has grown. My neurologist is worried at how quickly it has amassed, and wants to make sure it hasn't become malignant. You know, that same brain that houses my wenclairs? She could be very ill.

I tore every fucking ligament in my left knee a few months ago, that had to be surgically repaired, and PT for it has left me in immeasurable pain. Another time and energy consumer, keeping me away from my writing. I can't walk without a crutch.

My uncle recently passed away without any warning, and my cousin was just killed in a car accident less than two weeks ago. I've watched both of those losses hurt my father, as they're his side of the family.

And because of all of this, my depression has made a VIOLENT EMERGENCE. It's crippling. If not for my girlfriend and my friends, I wouldn't be here anymore. I am so tired but I cannot sleep. Every new drama takes another piece of me with it. I cry all the time. I try so hard to be strong but man, I'm only a person.

I want to write wenclair. I want it. I think about them all the time. TDWW is 99% finished but I cannot focus enough to write the final scene. I want to have YMU ready for next week. TFT and Pandora will be in there somewhere. I need them, they're my strength. I feel as broken as Wednesday.

I'm human, not a content factory. So many of you have sent such lovely words and support to me, and I'm thankful for all of you. The kindness is so amazing, and I'm so thankful. And I know I shouldn't let the voices of the few overpower the good of the many. But I'm not perfect and all of this has left me incredibly vulnerable, so the slightest negativity has been heavily impacting me.

I'll update as soon as I am able, please just have a little bit of patience. 🩷🖤
