[evermorecountsastherapy]

the fact that I can feel myself slowly spiraling back into a full-blown mauraders era obsession literally seconds after I see Remus make his first appearance in PoA during my annual rewatch of it is..... actually kind of insane now that I type it out 🧍‍♀️anyway

[amiharana]

just so obsessed with the idea of revali silently loving link and pining so much for him, but holding back because he's already created this facade that he despises link, because zelda and mipha already loved him first, because why would link ever choose him? so revali keeps it all inside and tries to display his bitterness at unreciprocated love as jealousy and arrogance at the imbalance of their roles, and tries desperately to fall out of love with link.

but it's as though the little hylian won't let him.

link, who practically insists on staying by revali during battle, who stares at revali with that wide blue-eyed gaze, who naps peacefully with his head in revali's lap when they're alone. and revali should be ecstatic at how close they are, but it hurts more than anything. this isn't fair to him, to be so tantalizingly close to link but to never be able to have him more than this. it's so suffocating, revali doesn't think he can stand to do this any longer, or else it might kill him.

but he continues to let link do whatever he pleases; silently tagging along after revali to the archery range, sitting beside him at mealtimes and letting him sneak more bites from revali's plate as though revali doesn't see him, even going as far as to let link sleep with him in his hammock after what revali assumed to have been a very bad nightmare. no one says a single word when revali and link arrive late to breakfast, with link clinging sleepily to revali's wing and revali looking strangely peaceful.

try as he might (he's not trying at all), revali can't say no to link (and neither does he want to), so he supposes he might as well endure this suffering a little longer.

"why do you let me do all this?" link whispers to him once, in the dead of the night, wrapped around revali in his hammock. and revali is silent for a moment, trying to come up with some sort of answer that could defend his actions. but he can't.

"i don't know," he says simply. he can't tell link the truth.

"does it bother you?"

"do you think you'd still be in my bed practically choking me to death with how tightly you're wrapped around me if it did?" revali winces at how biting his words are, but link just hums and snuggles deeper into revali's neck. he doesn't stop link.

"if it bothered you, you'd tell me, right?" the little hylian murmurs.

revali thinks about it for a moment. and he decides, no, i wouldn't. if you wished to be warm, i'd let you use my body as fuel for a campfire.

"go to sleep," he says aloud instead, softly, gently. he couldn't tell link that either, and he probably never would be able to. he wouldn't ever have the chance. "we have battles to prepare for in the morning."

revali wraps his wings snug around the blond, and link practically purrs in content, dozing off immediately into the warmth. like this, the rito almost smiles. if burning himself alive was the only way to have link, even for just a moment that couldn't always be guaranteed, then revali would just have to make sure he stayed alight; to be the bonfire keeping link warm throughout the night.

Hot take here but...

Like I know this is Tumblr. This is the autism site.

So of course I knew everyone would side with Laios on this and empathize more with him but its driving me insane how everybodys saying Toshiro was completely on the wrong here and he should have communicated better and talked about his grievances with Laios WHEN THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS IS THEY WERE BOTH ON WRONG HERE.

LIKE THERES A REASON CHILCHUCK BRINGS UP HOW LAIOS SHOULD WORK ON HIS SOCIAL SKILLS A COUPLE OF EPISODES AGO/JUST BEFORE THIS HAPPENS?

like I know most of you don't like it but social cues ARE a part of society culture. Social cues ARE a form of communication.

In fact they were made to facilitate communication.

They were made so everytime Alice and Bob annoy each other they don't have to go and have a heart to heart when a simple gesture can have the same effect.

In fact sometimes better because sometimes addressing something with words makes it come out stronger/ruder than it is.

And sometimes just like you have problems understanding social cues some people have problems speaking, finding the way to words their thoughts/feelings correctly.

Specially among strangers where you don't know the others personality or how they could react to your words.

That's where social cues, that are general rules the majority of people have agreed on, work. To facilitate convivence.

And yeah there's an argument to be said about how you are supposed to know them if they are unspoken rules and the thing is YOU LEARN THEM THROUGH SOCIAL INTERACTION, through living in a society.

Just like gender norms and the like you don't learn them in school during a boring lecture where a professor lists them on the board. You learn them through interaction and repetition, throught observing your peers. Just like learning to talk and walk and other stuff. Heck, your parents and other adults around are supposed to ease you into it.

And yes, it's not a perfect system. But nothing is.

The saying 'communication is the key' doesn't refer to just talking.

Social cues and other non spoken gestures are also another form of communicating. Equally as valid as all the others

There's beauty in talking and openly expressing your love to someone. Or your grievances.

But there's also beauty in grabbing someones arm or the you picking up your friend is uncomfortable due to the turnup of their mouth or the way they stand.

One isn't superior to other. They are supposed to complement each other

Laios and Toshiros mistakes were relying completely in one or the other instead a compromising and finding a middle point.

Toshiro should have expressed his annoyance at Laios.

And Laios should have picked better Toshiros signs of discomfort.

(All of this isn't even taking into account how they come from different cultures and shock it comes with it because others have talked better about it and I wanted to focus on this. On how even if they have from the same background Laios should have also been a fault.

Hell not only social cues even talking is affected by ones cultural background. What for me is normal could come out as rude for someone in Japan)

Do you take commissions? If so, do you have a commission sheet? I’m sorry if this is an annoying ask I just really love your work lol

not annoying at all! i really really appreciate this a lot, thank you!

i have done commissions in the past on other platforms, but for now i am not taking them here. i'm not saying that i never will, because sometimes life is.. you know. Like That™️. but for now i'm steering clear of it to try and keep my passion up! 👍

The worst part about following lace code is that people will say “I like your shoelaces” and I have to pretend that I feel completely neutral about that phrase.

Okay this is for the RLGL au

has there EVER been a crime at the place Y/N sun and moon work at? if so how tight is the whole " client" list thing is ?

like all the client use fake names or they wear mask so the bots don't know who they being intimate with ?

Oh there has been a lot of crimes in the rooms of fazbear co. Though those crimes mostly play out in the club rooms of the establishment were influential people meet, drinking high profile alcohol and talk about business while being served by bots. Sometimes its embezzlement, sometimes its fraud, a lot of it is of political nature. There is also a lot of drug possession/use going on.

If you are asking about violent crimes yes, once or twice there have been ... accidents... resulting in the destruction of bots, customers who get violent with the bots to the point of breaking them recieve an exprbitant fee and are banned from the estanlishment unless they pay an even more exorbitant amount of money to be allowed back in.

It is allways clear to fazbear co. who the customers are before they recieve any clearance to enter the establishment! If they choose to they can wear a mask but it is mostly not needed. The bots have a not removable part of their programming dedicated to keeping identity or any personal data on their customers safe even before self preservation and their database on any of their customers can be wiped at any time if the customer asks for it.

irreplaceable rant? to the left to the left

My irreplaceable rant is essentially:

When Beyonce wrote Irreplaceable it was like a giant stepping on an ant. Even in 06 she was shaping up to be a Juggernaut. B'Day launched at number 1 I believe? She was blowing up. Well established, producing bop after bop after banger after banger. And We bought Irreplaceable because we, fully, were on board. Beyonce COULD have another you in a minute. The mythos of Beyonce was taking shape. She was Beyonce, you were some guy. To the left.

When she wrote Lemonade it was like. Oh there are stakes now because whether you think Jay Z is great or not or a garbage dude or whatever, he's at least closer to her level than just "some guy".

Like. Of course she could have another you in a minute if you were some dude. But could she have another Jay Z in a minute? No, categorically she could not, and to say otherwise is to tell yourself fun lies because you hate cheaters or men or whatever. I am a firm believer that Beyonce is one of a kind and cannot be replicated in our lifetime as a cultural phenomenon, artist, creator, singer, you name it she is. incredible. But I'm also not going to pretend Jay Z wasn't in some ways just as singularly, powerfully monolithic with popculture just because most of this website understands rap less.

She writes the Sistine Chapel about him because like it or not, she wants to. She looks at him and sees things you could only dream of creating and I for one am just happy to be here, and could care less what you think about Beyonce's specialist boy who is the catalyst of some of the best music I've heard in the past decade, and also someone who MADE some of the best music I've heard in the past 20 years as well.

Beyonce's first solo recording was 03 Bonnie and Clyde, btw. As in, she was a feature on a Jay Z song before even releasing Dangerously in Love. Which. Also prominently has a Jay Z feature. In the lead single. That arguably launched Beyonce's career. Why would she ever write songs about the man who helped her launch her career that she has been married to for 16 years. A damn mystery.

And for the record, if she wanted to make the most beautiful art in the world about literal garbage, so the fuck what. We hate Duchamps The Fountain on this website now? Irving Penn spent years taking extremely detailed, well composed photos... of actual trash. Like Mud Glove. His photos were hanging in the Smithsonian a few years ago. Turns out beautiful art that says something, even something about trash? Still beautiful.

on the one hand i think i'd rather die before telling anyone in my non-kink-blog life about the fet ever again. on the other i am Definitely going to die if i have to experience my (non-snzfucker) friends hitting up my DMs telling me how sneezy they are 💀💀💀💀💀

[karriethemechtech]

I can’t respond to them all at once so I’ll put it here, but thank you from all you folks on the chatterweb who reached out with offers of employment. It’s—really nice actually that I managed to make a good impression like that on so many of you folks.

I’ll have to consider my options, but I’ll probably pick one of those offers up eventually. Truth be told Outreach is slow as hell since the Capellans took over, and doing contractor maintenance on their weapons of war kinda sucks.

But seriously. You’ve all been really kind here. Means a lot to a periphery rat like me.

wanna make a folk costumes of britain zine sooo fuckign bad.........

[ravenatural]

making this it’s own post because I don’t want to detract from the main message of the one that prompted this, but

as important as it is to recognize how to spot AI generated images, particularly in regards to anything trying to spread disinformation in this specific case, body irregularities are not a good basis to go off of—in this case people are being really weird in the notes of another post about someone wearing a 6th fingered glove, and taking that as the proof of it being AI generated

so I’d just like to remind folks who already knew and may have forgotten, as well as inform folks who were not previously aware, that there’s something called polydactylism, where some people are born with additional fingers. ( linking to Wikipedia here for a quick definition but I encourage looking at accredited medical sources as well if you want an accurate grasp of things ) this can occur in other animals as well, and is commonly seen in cats

basically, what I’m trying to say here is do not determine that something is fake/AI based off something about a persons appearance being abnormal to you or societal standards, and then proceed to say some, quite honestly, rude things in regards to said persons appearance. Just, please be aware that people can have aspects of their appearance you’re not used to or expecting to be possible, and don’t use that as you’re sole indicator that something is AI generated, and ESPECIALLY don’t use words like ‘scary’, ‘uncanny’, ‘unnatural’ etc. to describe the persons appearance

( to note: I personally do not have polydactylism—or any visible deviations in appearance that are considered outside the norm—so to anyone who actually is in that boat and is comfortable saying so, please let me know if I’m speaking out of place, or wrong, or being insensitive in any way with this post )

IMPORTANT!!!

In light of recent (albeit poor) doxxing attempts made towards me by people who associate with the following user, along with other very absurd things I’ve been sent, I’m putting my foot down once again and letting all of you know that I want any of you to hardblock me if you support @sound-hz / @tentamissile-maestro, as this person has openly encouraged harassment towards me and obsessively namedrops me for their followers to go after me.

I’ve been in the process of writing something as this person has attempted to spread an overdramatized and inaccurate document full of negative assumptions towards me, however as my own document is not finished, I cannot send it here at the moment. I’m only writing this here because I’m getting annoyed with their followers telling me “I know your address :3” and such.

I do not want such toxic and drama-hungry people anywhere near me. Please, please do NOT interact with me at all whatsoever if you support sound-hz. Thank you, and I’m sorry any of you have to see this. I wish this never had to happen, but it was forced upon me after enduring so much harassment.
