#i don't have a psa tag i think but y'know

[whitesuited]

now that's 5's birthday month is in the rear view, i can hopefully get back to keeping a little more of my mental capacity here and actually focused for more than 5 minutes at a time ...

so the plan of attack is as follows ------ i'm going to go through my follows and shed some inactives / archives i'm still following. i'm going to go through my Mariana Trench of an inbox as well and clear out what i can, and keep what i feel like is still answerable ( this also means you might be seeing replies to memes that you don't even remember sending and for that i apologize unless you like surprises then ... yay? ) same will happen with drafts, and i'm going to make a physical list of both because somehow i tend to follow through on physical lists i can touch and cross off myself better than a digital tracker.

aaaand go!

VERSE: WHISKEY & NICOTINE ↪ modern.

he never liked the idea of retirement. he's estranged from the deadlock gang — but gun running was all he's ever known, aside from drinking and smoking. so he bought that shady biker bar at the end of 5th street and opened the high noon saloon.

a young colton cassidy is found strapped for cash after the passing of his father and late stage diagnosis of his mother's cancer — following in the footsteps of his main verse, he finds a quick fix in GUN RUNNING. he recruits a team and makes DEADLOCK a very well known name in the business throughout the american southwest. so it doesn't take long for the LAW to get word of a new player in the streets.

they're assigned to a task force specializing in dismantling nationwide gang operations, who watches him and the gang very closely over the next few years, compiling all evidence needed to greenlight a sting operation on what was believed to be the gang's headquarters.

it's considered successful at the time, after partially disbanding the team and taking the then 21 year old colton in for questioning and holding. impressed with skill and mental fortitude, as well as vast knowledge on their current subjects, they offer the kid an ULTIMATUM: join up or lock up.

he chooses the former.

he works on this specialized task force for a little over 10 years. they have their ups and downs, but they get by and get the job done. shortly after getting word of the resurrection of the DEADLOCK GANG, the team is hit hard — assumingly by the aforementioned gang.

the force crumbles — half dead, the rest severally injured, the team's disbanded. colton, having paid his dues, hits dirt and goes into hiding, roaming from town to town for the next several years.

as the heat finally dies down, an investment opportunity lands in his lap. an old, shoddy bar in a middle-of-nowhere town full of nobodies — perfect for a nobody with nowhere to be.

he buys the bar and rebrands as the HIGH NOON SALOON. with a little help from an old friend, bars, in the kitchen, the place is brought back to life, quickly drawing in the locals and travelers alike — and all the TROUBLE that comes with them...

CallOut and PSA post: (negative posts are marked with 'baodc ramble' if you want to mute the tag, don't wanna stress anyone out)

--

I'd kindly ask you all the report and block geldar13. (who might or might not have gotten shadowbanned already?)

I know, I know, I should have blocked him earlier already, given his reputation in the community.

Long story short:

Geldar is notorious for badmouthing and slandering IF authors, especially those that don't bend over backwards for him. He's condescending, and generally the 'why is everyone but me stupid? why can't they be like me and think like me then we'd not have any problems!' (note, he's also the person who strikes you as someone who'd use a much nastier word than 'Stupid' to describe others if he'd think he could get away with it)

He finally blocked me over simply asking followers to have an icon so identifying bots at a quick glance is easier. (or he coincidentally got shadowbanned at the same time)

Which (the getting an icon) according to geldar was a waste of time because 'bots are not that sophisticated, so everything that people ask of their followers (sending asks, leaving comments etc (y'know, things akin remotely to the turing test?)) are a stupid waste of time'

So, yeah, not a nice person to have around, unwilling to learn, and generally exhausting to have

fr tho

i really suck at functioning in society. i have awkward silences with my frens now. sometimes even my s/o. and there's so much i wanna tell them. but idk how to. i feel awkward with strangers. i have limited frens. and idk how to make more. even when im close proximity with more ppl. we could probably talk and get somewhere. how do we start. what do i say. they most likely think im a pathetic loner and don't wanna interact. and if i put in efforts, i probably come off as desperate. but what if they seem to not really not be bothered by me. then i over share and embarrass myself. im so boring. i bring up weather and boring college talks. cos the other alternative is my internal monologue. and that's worse.

anyway. i used to think the extrovert adopting introvert wasn't me. now i think it is. cos i dont remember the last time i made a fren

why is it, that a dog, sleeping in the sun, is so beautiful, y'know, it is, it's beautiful, but a guy, standing at a bank machine, trying to take some money out, looks like a complete moron?

My #1 post of 2022

Bro your name is so beautiful i saw in your bio 'Hiraeth' once i was watching one video in which she said that "Welsh me ek word hai Hiraeth jiska matlab hai 'ghar jo kabhi ghar tha hi nhi' "this sentence made me stare at the wall for 10min straight

spancc yeu

yeaaa i had the same reaction when i first discovered the word

my mind somehow interpreted it as 'longing for the soul to come home' or 'homesickness for the soul' and... adopted it!

heya ✌️ i'm tav / fable, i'm 23 years old, my timezone is est, i've been in the rpc for ~10 years, and you could pour soup in my lap and i'd probably apologize to you. if the way these are worded makes me sound a little harsh, it isn't meant to come off that way!! i've just been in the rpc for too long to be vague or lenient. that said, a few rapid-fire rules before we get into the lengthier ones that actually need explaining:

— don't follow me if you're any sort of phobic towards any group of people. — mun =/= muse, i don't condone everything my muses do, you get the drill. — vagueposting / guiltposting is an instant block from me. it's not cute. we're all adults here, let's communicate and act like it. — don't rush me for replies, period. rushing me for a thread at all will result in me flat out dropping it.

[ 1 ] for blogs that i can’t see myself interacting with, i will soft block you to keep my followers clean. personal blogs will be hard blocked immediately unless a sideblog is attached to it and i can easily see that your personal blog is a hub. note that it will take me a little while sometimes to decide if i want to follow back. give me a few days at a minimum. do not unfollow and follow again and again to get my attention. i will just hard block you and call it a day.

[ 2 ] i'm neutral on callouts. if i see them and think the proof provided in it is actually valid, then i'll reblog it under my psa tag and leave it at that, no further discussion. it will not go under "drama tw" or anything of the sort, because if it's serious enough, it isn't petty drama. it's a genuine warning passed to other members of the community so they can make their own opinions about. that said, i also believe people can change. if there is proof of that, then i see no reason to hold past mistakes over someone's head.

[ 3 ] i will only write with 18+ muns. if you follow me and are a minor or your age is not listed clearly on your blog, i will soft block you immediately. do not lie to me about your age, you will be hard blocked if i find out.

on a similar but less serious note, i also don't follow if i can't immediately see an alias. just...kinda wanna know who i'm following, is all.

[ 4 ] i get that plotting is kinda important for some people!! however, rarely will i ever fully plot a thread, and i heavily prefer using memes to interact. now, plotting for the general vibe of the thread and dynamic between characters? absolutely!! but frankly, if i relied on completely plotting threads, i'd kill my creativity and get even less done than i already do. i'm here for a fun time, not a stressful and / or long time, so please be aware.

[ 5 ] speaking of relying on memes, send me several at a time! you're probably more likely to get a response if you give me variety to work with. if i get a meme i don't think i can work with, i'll probably send several back to you to make up for it. just so things don't feel lopsided or something.

[ 6 ] i am 23 and valynn is an adult ( even though elven ages are... a little weird ), so nsfw content is likely to show up here in some capacity. when it does, it'll be tagged as "nsfw //" ( or "suggestive //" if it's only implied ). however, i'm likely only going to write those topics with people i'm close to.

[ 7 ] anon hate is cringe, so if you send it, it won't get a response from me unless it's to make fun of you. at this point i expect most of us to know not to answer it seriously otherwise the sender is just being encouraged, so if i keep seeing it being answered / talked about on the dash ( unless it's being poked fun at ), i'm probably just going to soft block for my sake because. y'know, you didn't wanna get the negativity, i don't wanna see that negativity, etcetera.

on that note, untagged negativity will also lead to me unfollowing. untagged posts in general will lead to me unfollowing if it's a frequent thing, honestly.

[ 8 ] with how difficult tumblr has made it as of late to properly source things, i have become significantly more lenient when it comes to people reblogging memes and musings from me, as long as it isn't like several posts in a row. that said, i expect this understanding to be mutual. i'll always try to reblog from the source if i can, but if not, it'll just have to come from whoever slapped it on the dash.

[ 9 ] if you need something tagged, tell me! i’ll do my best to remember to tag what i need to, but please remind me if i happen to forget. the system i use is just "trigger //". now, if you use fancy tags for nsfw posts or posts that otherwise need a trigger warning and refuse to adjust if confronted about it, that's getting a hard block. it isn't difficult to be respectful of what people need tagged. the refusal to do so for your aesthetic is kinda fucked.

as for what i need tagged, all i ask is that visuals of sunflowers are tagged appropriately. i would also appreciate detailed mentions of terminal illness being tagged, specifically cancer, but that's more of a squick than a trigger, so that one is less of a problem.

[ 10 ] obligatory "let's just have fun" rule here. we're all on this hellsite to write our silly little guys, it really isn't that serious. just be decent, and we'll be chill!!

[hyperfixation-hideout]

As a former frequent RWDE poster who had to leave because of the harassment I was getting for my criticism: The anti-RWDE crowd don't care, they are deliberately tagging their stuff in such a way that the RWDE tag picks it up so that they can vaguepost in plain sight.

I have gotten the vibe (albeit unfounded) that some people might be doing that intentionally. That's why I made the psa post - so the people who do see it and care will know, just in case. I did think it was possible I'd get a reply telling me "it's on purpose lol stop victimizing them" or something. However, I know some of the people I've seen posting in anti-rwde, and they're genuinely kind people, so I made the little psa in hopes they'll see it, too. And it's been taken well so far!

I'm sorry to hear you were getting harassed. That sucks and I'm sorry you don't feel comfortable talking about rwby transparently. I see it all too often and it's part of why I haven't posted RWBY videos in a while (I have multiple abandoned drafts bc I got worried my tone or word choice could be taken as hate instead of passion). It's possible there are people in the anti-rwde crowd who won't care, who are doing it on purpose (I hope not, but this is the internet), and who actively want rwde users to see their insults. I can't do anything about that, really, and I don't want that kind of person - the kind who goes into a tag with the sole purpose of bashing the people in there indiscriminately so they're all forced to see hate - following me.

I figure if I have followers like that, they'll see my post and leave. And if followers of mine who post there read my tags/response on that post and rethink some things, great! Benefit of the doubt, y'know? I totally understand how bad experiences with members of a group can sour one's perception of that group, and in that case staying away is often healthy.

But I used to think rwde was inherently hateful, and I bought into all the things I was told by people I know in the fndm of what rwde users think, that they're all haters of the show who just want to ruin fans' fun and insult people for enjoying rwby. I fully believed that at face value. All it takes from there is one or two examples supporting it and it's easy to conclude that's the truth, so I did. And if I can take in new information to rethink an opinion and grow from it, so can others :)

It's a similar thing I want to avoid here, thinking of all who post in anti-rwde as the same, with the same information and intentions and opinions. I don't feel great about the tag's existence in general, but setting that aside I know those are people behind it. Based on the response to my little psa alone you can see that some either lacked full context or hadn't thought about it that way, but didn't have malicious intent, either, and are rethinking some things. If I think a group is being hateful and asserting things I find morally wrong, I won't think of it as morally wrong to antagonize them or post about them in their tags. If I didn't have the info and experiences I do now, I could see myself hypothetically being enticed by the idea of antirwde. It's easy to fall into mentalities of defensiveness/offensiveness and hard to get out of. Everyone's guilty of it at some point.

I'm just glad I happened to dig a little deeper and see something different than I'd believed to be true. Others may not want to do that because they'd rather avoid what makes them uncomfy, and that's okay too! (As long as they're self-aware about the limitations of their experience and as such don't spread hate about it) The problem I have is when people act with the goal of making someone else feel shitty or insulting their character, not for any specific opinion or belief, but for the very act of disagreeing. So the terminology of anti-rwde rubs me the wrong way, but I don't think the people using it are all intending "anti-discussion." I don't like the idea of it in general, but at least if it's tagged "antirwde" people can blacklist it, just like people can blacklist rwde. It's a pretty small group of people posting there, so I'm just hoping it doesn't spiral into something huge flooding the tag. We'd never be able to read a post in there again 😭

TL;DR: Maybe some of them are. But maybe some of them aren't. And maybe some of them are but might change their minds with new info and perspectives. I did. So I'll just hope to reach the people willing to be reached and distance myself from those who aren't.

i wrote a terrible self-insert fanfic when i was 11-12 and now i'm going through it and fixing my pronouns for Gender Euphoria™ reasons but leaving the rest of it alone, here are my thoughts but i'm not gonna provide any context

the plot of this fic was basically just the "you wanna fuck me so bad it makes you look stupid" meme

hoo boy was i Repressed™ and it shows

WOW i really have been a sucker for hurt/comfort from the jump huh

jesus fucking christ i could really go down a rabbit hole psychoanalyzing this shit

LMFAO 😂😂😂 I REALLY THOUGHT I WAS GONNA OWN NOT ONE BUT MULTIPLE LANDLINE PHONES AS AN ADULT

LIKE I THOUGHT I WAS GONNA LIVE IN APARTMENT THAT WAS LARGE ENOUGH FOR THAT TO BE A THING

IN THIS ECONOMY??? OH HONEY

okay WHAT the fuck was my obsession with owning a satchel??? like bitch??? hello???

side note: i did end up getting a satchel like two years later, so, yay for that i guess

cannot BELIEVE i simped this hard over an anime character when i was in middle school

wh- hang on what the fuck. that. that doesn't make ANY goddamn sense, how did i think that would work physically??? bitch

hm. you know what, That Sentence In Particular says some shit about me that i am not ready to unpack yet, so i'm not gonna!

you know i know i said i was only gonna fix the pronouns but it's my gender and i get to experience the gender euphoria so i think i'm also gonna change the way my hair is described to match the way it looks now

y'know, now i'm kinda understanding why my 6th grade english teacher prohibited me from writing fanfic for a school assignment but still. she was kind of a bitch about it and that was unnecessary.

god i remember writing this in the notes app on my iphone 3gs. i remember copying/pasting giant chunks of it to send to my best friend through kik messenger because she didn't have a cell phone. but most importantly i remember her hyping me tf up and how important that was to me. good times

hsfdgjsh my professors are gonna be talking to me in class like "so what'd you do last night? get any sleep?" and i'm gonna be like "no i fucking psychoanalyzed my childhood self through the lens of my old fanfiction"

BOY HOWDY WAS THAT A POOR CHOICE OF WORDS. REALLY WISH I HADN'T DESCRIBED THAT PARTICULAR ACTION IN THAT WAY.

bitch i am begging you to use normal fucking words p l e a s e

a MINIVAN??? of all the cars i could've picked for myself to drive, i chose A MINIVAN??? i mean it's practical, space-wise, but WHAT THE FUCK

of fucking course the minivan is green. i mean it still IS my favorite color tbf

wow this bitch did not give a FUCK about car insurance costs okay. damn wish i could be her 😔 she's out here tokyo drifting up in this bitch

oh my fucking god i did NOT understand how cars work lmao. or like, fuckin physics for that matter

i- did this vehicle just not have airbags in it or something??? because they probably fucking should've gone off by now holy shit

"put the car back into second gear" BITCH SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. TO THIS DAY I STILL HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THAT MEANS. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE SECOND GEAR AND FIRST GEAR SETTINGS ON THE GEAR SHIFT OF MY CAR EVEN DO.

aaand we're just gonna... okay. i mean it makes sense in context i guess, but... okay. fine. you do you, kid.

wh- how did paint get scraped off the sides of the car??? the sides of the car never fucking touched anything i- fuck it. never mind.

i- okay i know the car thing was kind of bonkers per my earlier description but it wouldn't have caused THAT to happen

IT'S ON FIRE??? IT'S ON FUCKING FIRE??? B I T C H

okay so we're just back to our regularly scheduled programming after all that then? cool whatever i guess

y'know i'm not sure of the accuracy of that scientific technobabble but it sounded at least a little bit believable so. good job, past me. you get points for that one

my fucking god why couldn't any of these characters tell a halfway-decent lie to save their lives lmao

ahhh wait i remember why the car is Fucked™ now. it's because the mental image i had in my head of a different scene involving a car involved a different car, so i had to COMPLETELY DESTROY the first car i mentioned for some goddamn reason.

wh- MILK??? bitch what were you ON
