Okay, I genuinely feel bad that I missed Mr. Tinker from the line-up and want to include him. But I'm looking through the 64 characters I've got and there's no one who I think it'd be fair to take out. Unless... we make one of the initial polls a threeway poll? Like, add Mr. Tinker into whatever bracket Eggman's in?

In (belated) celebration of Ace Day, to double as an explanation of How I Approach Some Things

Hello! I’m Rain, this is my blog, and I’m an oriented Aroace! (Romance repulsed, sex neutral, girls are pretty I guess) I’m also some kind of flavor of polyamorous and part of what can only be described as a weird kind of queerplatonic plolycule that defies explanation beyond “these are my people”.

As far as my fanfiction goes, this means that when I use labels for relationships they tend to be very…loosely applied and very much open to interpretation. I do usually try to specify how strictly I’m adhering to definitions in specific instances, at least in an authors note or something, but sometimes I also forget that if I say two people are married most people assume that is romantic and or sexual.

I’m also a multi-shipper in the sense that I’m p much down with anything even if I have preferences for what I read or write. I also mostly write gen-fic so romantic shipping isn’t as relevant overall.

(The au in which all the marriages are arranged/marriage of state AU is something of an exception to my usual work bc the romance is more central to the story than just happening in the background as a d plot. Wish me luck!)

Still no party pics? :(

We got these but other than that I didn’t see any

i want to see a reverse glow-up. I want to see a girl learning to love herself without her makeup, and pretty dresses and just accepting herself. I want to see the guy getting with the girl with glasses, or braces, or acne, or messy hair, or tall, or whatever stupid thing they're insecure about.

I wish I'd been exposed to that sort of media as a child, and while I'm sure it must exist somewhere, it didn't play a part in my formative years and left me with beautifully organised piles of self-hatred.

Who do you think Hermes would sound like?

Ooc: I honestly have no idea

[inkskinned]

what is with men being mad any time a woman raises her voice where did that even come from. someone posted a video of a small electrical explosion, and the top comment was of course the woman screams. the second comment is women try not to scream challenge, level impossible. i had to go back and watch the video again. there is, somewhat fainty, a little gasp emitted off-camera, more of a yelp than a scream. it is mostly lost in the crack of the explosion. afterwards, you hear her voice, shaken, say, are you okay?

i am helping one of my friends train her voice pitch lower, because she wants to be taken seriously at work. she and i do each other's nails and talk about gender roles; and how - due to our appearance - neither of us have ever been able to be "hysterical" in public. we both appear young and sweet and feminine. she is cisgender, and cannot use her natural voice in her profession because people keep saying she appears to be "vapid". we both try to figure out if our purposeful voice lowering is technically sexist. is it promoting something when you are a victim to it?

a storm almost sends a pole through a car window. in the dashcam, you can hear the woman passenger say her partner's name twice, crying out in alarm. she sounds terrified. in the comments, she is lambasted for her lack of calm. how is that even fucking helping?

in high school, i taught myself to have a lower voice. i had been recorded when i was genuinely (and righteously) upset; and i hated how my voice sounded on the phone speakers when it was played back. i was defending my mom, and my voice cracked with emotion. it meant i was no longer winning the argument: i was just shrieking about it.

girls meet each other after a long summer and let out a little joyful scream. this usually stops around 12-14, because people will not tolerate this display of affection (as it has the effect of being passingly annoying). something about the fact that little girls can't ever even be annoying. we are trained to examine each part of our lives (even joy) for anything that could make us upsetting and disgusting. they act like teenage girls are breaking into houses and shrieking you awake at 3 in the morning. speaking as a public school educator: trust me, it's not that bad, you can just roll your eyes and move on. it does not compare to the ways boys end up being annoying: slurs in graffiti, purposefully mocking your body, following you after you said no. you know, just boy things.

there's another video of a man who is not allowed to yell in the house, so he snaps his fingers when he's excited about soccer. the comments are full of angry men, talking about how their brother is unfairly caged. let him express himself and this is terrible to do to someone. eventually the couple has to address it in a second video: they are married with a newborn baby. he was trying not to wake the infant up. there is no comment on the fact women are not allowed to yell indoors. or the fact that it could have been really alarming or triggering for his wife. sometimes i wonder if straight men even like women, if they even enjoy being in relationships with them.

for the longest time, i hated roller coasters because it always felt inappropriate and uncomfortable for me to scream. one of my friends called me on it, said it was unusual i'm so unwilling. i had to go to my therapist about it. i don't like to scream because i was not raised in a safe situation, and raising my voice would have brought unsafe attention towards me. even when i am supposed to scream, it feels shameful, guilty. i was not treated kindly, so i lack a basic form of self-protection. this is not a natural response. it is not good that in a situation of high adrenaline - i shut up about it.

something very bad is happening, i think. in between all the beauty standards and the stuff i've already discussed - this one feels new and cruel in a way i can't quite express. yes, it's scary and silencing. but there's something about how direct it is - that so many men agree with the sentiment that women should never yell, even in an emergency - it feels different.

is the word shriek gendered automatically? how about shrill or screech? in self defense class, one of the first things they tell you is to yell, as loud and as shrilly as you can. they say it will feel rude. most women will not do this. you need to practice overcoming the social pressure and just scream.

most women do not cry out, even when it's bad. we do not report it. we walk faster. we do not make a scene. what would be the point of doing anything else? no matter what we do, we don't get taken seriously. it is a joke to them. an instagram caption punchline. we have to present ourselves as silent, beautiful, captivating - "valuable."

a woman is outside watching her kids when someone throws a firecracker at them. she screams and runs towards her children. in the comments, grown men flock together in the thousands: god. women are so annoying.

A redraw of an alien digimon that I drew last year. And added its evolutions that I never showed off.

I really didn't do that much on this blog in 2023, so I'm going to try and upload more often in 2024. For the month of January I'm going to try and post a drawing a day.

[herd-reject-arts]

So I'm leaving work and something darts in front of me, maybe 10ft away, too fast for me to see what it is. Peek around the tree blocking my path and I see this

Just like... a whole ass hawk. Dude's gotta be about 1.5ft tall. Massive fucking bird. And it's just staring me straight in my soul like this, even as I try to move ahead. It didn't budge. And there's only this path back to my car unless I want to walk on a busy highway. So I have the option of Death By Raptor or Death By Truck.

So I walk in the poison ivy filled patch off the sidewalk. Guy still isn't moving. Still staring me directly in the eyes. And I do this thing when animals are behaving strangely where I'll talk to them, so I'm just like, "Hey, man. I don't know you. You don't know me. This feels really threatening. I'm just trying to get to my car, dude. Can I get some space please? You're a big fucking bird. I see those claws. You could kill me right now, but I'd appreciate if you didn't, ok?"

It didn't move until I was about 2ft away. Again: I'm as far from it as I can be without walking into the street. It clearly wasn't going to budge. I walk past, thing flies up (silent, btw. Scary) and lands on a brick wall a little further ahead

Anyway. Weird guy. Nearly shit my pants when I noticed a bird big enough to carry off a fully grown cat was just... there, staring me in the face, unwilling to move away from me, a human, something it should see as a threat. I watched behind me the whole rest of the way to my car, just in case this bird decided to help me shed this mortal coil. 10/10 experience. Super cool guy.

i feel so crazy with the thing i'm editing writing now surely none of these changes actually matter. surely they are not actually changing anything to add in a sentence here or delete a paragraph there. killing myself. is it better. is it worse. is it a net zero neutral change. do i just need to move on to writing something new.
