hey, if you have a moment, you're that lyf on here's friend, right? you've told me to intervene a time or two when you thought they were doing stupid idiot shit. anyway, any tips on dealing with unexpected interdimensional travel when there wasn't a portal or anything? id ask them, but i dont want them to worry too much, and last time they helped they ended up getting a tail for their trouble. wouldn't ask anyone at all, except. well, this most recent travel between dimensions went a bit screwy?

just an fyi, and it feels like it needs to be said here: your blog is your own space and you should be able to say whatever the fuck you want. if you’re sad? vent. get sad. maybe put it under a cut, definitely tag it, but get sad. if you feel like you need someone to talk to? drop a freaking message about how you’re feeling like you could use a buddy, or anything randomly engaging. if you’re having a hard time, you should feel safe and okay to talk about it in your own space. we’re writers and we’re people and while there’s a lot to be said for how engagement outside of oneself is necessary in rp (and really really needs to improve), i think there’s a lot that must be said about people reaching out to others. it’s become so solitary here — the whole ‘reblog from source�� thing when it comes to shit like about and musings is absurd. the whole refusing to like things is ridiculous. yes, curate your space, that’s important, but curating your space into a studio apartment only you live in doesn’t make this a community anymore, it makes it a studio apartment you live in.

just be yourself here. do whatever you want. but i’m always saying: remember you’re not alone, and don’t let yourself feel that way.

i have been seeing a lot of posts on my dash about people being disillusioned with tumblr rp [ I've seen more than three people today talking abt this, not counting everything else i have seen this week ] & it's been making me assess this as a hobby & what it means to me. I've been writing with others on the internet as long as i can remember & it is different than it was when i was younger in many ways, both good & bad. but there is still something so cathartic about working with other people creatively that i just can't get anywhere else. I'm a messy rp'er that is slow, inconsistent ooc & jumps back & forth between blogs every few months but that is how i have fun. this is a no-pressure zone, a hobby that shouldn't put extra weight on your shoulders. write how you have fun with who you have fun with!

a friend recently described tumblr rp as playing barbies on the internet & something about that phrasing fed my inner child like goats at the petting zoo. i have thought really often about how niche this hobby is? like i know it's not a rare one compared to others but if you get onto a bus full of people chances are you are the only one doing tumblr rp. which is something that kind of emphasizes to me that you get to build your own community. you don't have to sit across the aisle from someone who you don't want to.

you choose who you follow. you get to choose who you write with, interact with, and continue talking to long-term. it can be overwhelming at times & it is okay to take a step back! it's okay to be bored & do something new! this shit is for our own entertainment. we get to breathe life into concepts, characters & trade thoughts of them with others. i have friends that i have had for years from this hobby! friends i will never forget! friends that fill me with love & creativity & all the jazz. i hope to make more as i continue to do it.

i have just been seeing a lot of bits about how things have changed [ in a negative context ] & that's true. me, personally, it takes a bit of time for me to feel super comfortable with people. when i was writing on tumblr 5 years ago i wasn't like that. things have changed & that's okay. but bottom line is different doesn't mean bad. different people work together in different ways & sometimes it takes time to find the people who work for you. i hope everyone i see struggling with this feeling comes to a conclusion that works for them but remember, we're supposed to be having fun, whatever that means is up to you.

// tweaking my vash bio here’s some funky lil headcanons:

he's used to people assuming he’s a 'man' and is comfortable with that most of the time, but when communing with other plants/using their gate and shortly after, they're very disconnected from individual concepts like ‘gender identity’ and may refer to themselves with plural pronouns for a spell (we/our; they (plural))

vash doesn't have a normal heartbeat - those with senses sharper than an average human might make out a thrumming in the air around him when he's particularly stressed, happy, excited, has just exercised or is... the other kind of excited.

this thrum turns into an audible purr when he's comfortable and happy - one most humans could feel or hear. this doesn't happen very often though...

my favorite thing in the world is actually when someone has their character and then a bunch of little characters that exist in that person’s life. we are all just people existing amongst other people and holding little parts of them in us

//Response to the PSA thing (your tags)

//No someone did that, I saw it, I unfollowed the person because of it because it was starting to make me intensely uncomfy how often they pounced on real issues while rping- (I rp to relax not talk about what's going on in the world-)

// Originally I wasn’t gonna respond to this until I reread it and saw that this isn’t a one time thing. Oh. Oh….

I don’t wanna like- publicly shame this person or anything, from what I’ve heard privately they’re coming from a place of concern and care for the topic(s) at hand!! I can understand that. But also there’s a time and a place for this… and funny Pokémon roleplay is absolutely not the place.

I hope this can be a learning experience for everyone involved if anything else? Nobody go out and harass this person- they don’t deserve that kind of malice over this.

updated my rules to include shipping info + a bit more about my monster muses specifically, since shipping with at LEAST one muse on this account is probably inevitable at some point

always strongly recommend researching the origins of thanksgiving and the history behind it before deciding on if your characters should celebrate it!
