you're a pathetic criminal who should be arrested, charged, and executed for your hacking crimes.

ok, let me guess, you're a US liberal? how's that been working for you? have you tried growing a spine yet?

I should know better than to go on CR twitter but I just read someone in all seriousness complain about Orym “pulling the dead family card” without any seeming awareness of how callous of a thought that is

And I just desperately want some of these people to take a giant step back and try to exercise some curiosity about different explorations of life experiences and emotional truths instead of resorting to downplaying or dismissing ideas that are difficult or uncomfortable.

Three Clicks and Thirty Seconds

Essentially; if I cannot find out what I need to know about you in 3 clicks and/or 30 seconds, its a waste of time and clearly not that important.

If you absolutely insist people need to know your age, pronouns, DNI and shipping stance before they're allowed to reblog your aesthetic FNAF gifset, you cannot hide that information behind 14 different links to multiple Carrd pages and 300 words about your childhood pets and the way you drink your coffee.

Necessary information should be precise, easy to find and easy to understand. Put the longest parts like your DNI underneath parts which are short like your age. Again, if people have to wade through your 274 point long DNI to find out if you're a minor or not, its not effective information and most people will simply not bother.

If you have "rules" for interacting with you and/or your content, they need to be clearly visible. Stop assuming every single person will do a deep-dive of your profile before interacting with you/your content. Most do not for the majority of interactions like sending a brief ask or reblogging a post from someone else who reblogged it from someone else.

"This person is so disrespectful, they ignored my DNI!"

Did they? Or did you put your DNI on page 5 of a Carrd profile and automatically assume everyone knows to click on your profile, click on your Carrd links and read every single page meticulously before messaging you?

Or did you just have a micro note in your bio telling people to go to your archive and search for 'DNI' to find it?

Or did you put your DNI in the middle of a poorly formatted, jumbled pinned post marred by colored font and stolen GIFs?

3 clicks and 30 seconds. That's it.

Quite possibly the dumbest thing I’ve ever drawn

[peantisdeliriouts]

Also for the millionth time, your DNI isn't a fucking boundary so how about you block people instead of being entitled and expecting everyone to read your little list that you yourself can't even follow.

Have you seen this? I head "Michael got excited about being connected through matching bracelets" and immediately thought that you're going to have some thoughts.

https://vm.tiktok.com/ZGeQE7KSk/

Oh my god. No, I hadn't seen this video until now, but thank you SO much for sending it to me! I'll post a clip of the most pertinent part about what Michael said below, but I urge folks to check out the whole thing on Tiktok, as this is the woman who made the bracelets we saw David wearing at the Proud Nerd Con last weekend:

My first immediate reaction after seeing/hearing this was utter disbelief and delight, coupled with a complete lack of surprise because...Michael. If there is anyone who could channel "15-year-old girl during the last week of summer camp" energy, it is Michael. It's also terribly bittersweet and yet somehow fitting knowing that we're nearing the end of Michael's time in London--which I think we can now refer to as Shennant Summer, at least in Australia, though the last six months were technically the winter here.

(My second thought was that I feel like we're a hell of a lot closer than ever before to my imaginings of Michael and David getting complementing tattoos somehow manifesting into reality...)

But...my god. I don't think any of us could picture Michael and David not being connected in some way, even if/when they're not in the same city, and yet the thought of Michael wanting to have some tangible reminder of David with him always is doing things to my heart that may necessitate the use of defibrillators. I feel like this is some kind of reverse Parent Trap situation where Michael is going to "accidentally" pack one of the Tennant kids in his suitcase, which will mean David will have to go to Wales to collect his wayward offspring, and then the next thing you know they're on a yacht drinking Champagne while "I Love You (For Sentimental Reasons)" plays in the background.

I think what is so incredible to me is that we know how soft (in the best way possible) Michael is, but to know that he's specifically gotten that way over David--that he holds David in that deep heart space--is achingly beautiful. I know a lot of folks will say that this is giving all of the "friendship bracelet" and "besties" vibes, but I really don't think it's much of a stretch to think that it could be something more. Everything about this just feels so romantic at this point that, in my opinion, it would seem almost ludicrous to not consider it a possibility. Because right now, neither Michael nor David appear to be holding back, and I'm so here for it.

Thank you again so much for sending this my way. I'd love to hear what everyone else thinks, so please feel free to add your thoughts in the comments. Thanks for writing in! x

sorry but like, as someone who doesn't vibe with fem!sub stuff and always ends up dislking fandom obsession with the man in any relationship being a Dominant Daddy Top containing more macho tendencies than personality . . i do also think that framing people liking violence in their sexual fantasies as worrying is um. worrying in and of itself.

like yeah logan being Like That in 'x reader' Old Man Logan stuff seems very ooc to me, too. but i also like animalism and brutality and violence in sex as well, and these things are not inherently abusive or "near rapist" by themselves in fictional portrayals of kink.

i don't hc logan as the macho dom! a lot of fandom for some reason considers "common consensus fanon" lmfao, but i also think that the fine line of fighting and fucking and violence and animalism is something viscerally satisfying to explore in fiction and especially kink. and characters like logan - who do actually have some solid connections to such themes - are some of the best outlets for that.

If you guys make a sever, would you both use the same account like you do on Tumblr? /genq either way I'd like a sever!

Hi there! Sunray here!

No, we wouldn't use the same account, unlike on Tumblr and Ao3, Moongleam would make her own account and stop hogging my account (for legal purposes, that was a joke)

And see you on the server (if it ever comes to be, though to my knowledge, with the way the votes went so far, it's going to be a thing)

"5'6 is short?! Huh, good thing i'm 5'10." <--- Visibly 4'4

after reading the commentary the writer recently made for astarion’s ‘bad ending’ it’s very obvious they have no scope of understanding what it’s like to have your autonomy forcibly stripped from you for a prolonged length of time and the way you would choose ‘safety’ in the form of power so no one could ever hurt you again. In the modern world this looks like buying a gun, learning specialized self-defense, etc.

Its obvious the writer doesn’t understand or didn’t consider that so many trauma survivors (myself included) picked that option as the ultimate form of catharsis and not because they only saw him as a sex object. That’s why the sequence of scenes after I chose to ascend him were so jarring to me and gave me such bad whiplash because one of Astarion’s underlying themes the entire time is how he is almost desperately seeking power to feel safe. It feels bad and didn’t make sense once we helped him obtain that power that he suddenly treats us as some weird pet that only degrades ourself for him.

To push the narrative that the only ‘good ending’ is one where he heals by staying as he is is almost harmful to trauma survivors because it makes us feel like we are healing ‘wrong’ if we seek safety in the form of power instead of seeking comfort, love, and choosing the morally just path. The idea that these things are the only right way to heal is wrong.

I’m even more disappointed knowing that the writer used that ending to basically ‘teach’ certain players a lesson instead of doing something more thoughtful or at least thought provoking. It just feels petty and shallow after reading the comments that were made and they could’ve went in different directions to stay more in line with his story. I hope they consider a rewrite or an adjustment after receiving the feedback they have.

sorry im about to vent off topic :i s2g if they hint on handsome jack in the movie and it is NOT dameon clarke im gonna lose my marbles. I feel like when they look at the success of the characters as well the VAs do so much heavy lifting to giving life to these characters. why they didnt just use the VA for Claptrap from B3 is beyond me why did it need to be someone else so it doesnt even sound right - they def went for name recongition over matching the characters - kevin hart is so tiny hes such a small dude and roland is large and also if roland is alive wouldnt thta imply that jack's also alive. like handsome jack is so successful because of dameon. he gave so many off the cuff lines. and if they wnated to make a movie why would they not choose the tales gang if thats the one that gave them so much credit? sorry i have so many feelings and i, also so SICK of seeing tiny tina bein g used for literally every borderlands merch thing recently

I'm fine with actors putting their own spin on characters they play and seeing how their writing can be interpreted differently but with handsome jack it becomes really tricky cause like... dameon clarke MADE jack who he is. Like a lot of people credit him for how good of a character he is so whoever WOULD play jack would have a whole lot of expectations to match. We already hate the casting (which is 100% just to get attention instead of accurately portraying the characters) so imagine how much more we would hate it if they messed jack up

Overall the whole movie just adds to what I said about gbox being out of touch with the fandom. We got randy already claiming he wants to make a sequel when the whole fanbase has voiced concern and disinterest about the movie just based on the trailers and they're just really trying to force lilith and tina to be fan favorites when they're... not? Like I love them, especially lilith like that's my homegirl right there, but the fandom as a whole would disagree that they're even well-liked characters

I love seeing people post art, interests or hobbies here.

Their inner monologue and vision being shared with anyone fortunate enough to come across it, vibing with it.

[ingravinoveritas]

Look at this. They make me sick 🥹😭.

Oh, this is just...perfection. I've had a few people send this to me and it looked like an edit, but I wanted to be sure before responding. From the source I've spoken with, it seems these were two pictures--one of David, and one of Michael--taken by the same photographer (who was at the performance tonight) and then that person edited the two pictures together.

In addition, according to the photographer, David and Michael were, in fact, looking into each other's eyes. I feel like we could see that from the original photo, but to have it confirmed by someone who was actually in the room leaves me breathless on multiple levels. Knowing that Michael and David are being so public and open about it, seemingly not caring who sees anymore, because they know they have each other. Gorgeous.

I have many other Asks that have come into my inbox tonight, so I am going to save my additional thoughts for those, but thank you so much for sharing this with me. I adore them so...
