༶ ⋆ ROMEO & JULIET PLAY ( super casual background plot )

This production of Romeo & Juliet is a joint-feature by Walt University and Fantasia Theatre. It follows the original script for the play, with only the following changes: the play is now set in the 1920s, and any gender can play any role. Aside from the original scenes, there’s also opportunity for dance scenes and musicians (to either be in the pit, or on stage in costume hehe). Lots of things are TBD, but yeah!

Only Walt Uni students can perform, but anyone is able to assist in the crew and behind-the-scenes. It is also a largely student-led production.

Currently (as of oct 2022): they are in planning mode, and technically the casting list should be out by now lmao but i wanted to give ppl the chance to offer their characters !! depending on how interest goes (and actual main rp events) in nov or dec i’ll randomize any acting roles that have multiple ppl going for it, and then after that, anyone who says they wanna be smth can just have it hehe. any roles not taken will just be an NPC :3 

Opening Night: uhhhhh up in the air !! likely in 2023

[ OOC ] : The play is just a nice thing for our characters to refer to in the background, as an extracurricular activity that they can be working on. It can also be a good way for people to get to know the university and each other and stuff !!!

[virgobingo]

hey! love all your jjk metas :)

just wanted to throw thoughts at you if you are interested!

so the very sparse info Gege provides for Gojo and Geto has, imo, some fridge horror to it. They must remain head-canon but I'm curious if you think my thoughts are a stretch or not.

child abuse cw

I wondered if Suguru snapping after finding Nanako and Mimiko was meant as a subtle hint at Geto, a child from a non-sorceror family, having childhood abuse background. His rampage at the village seems cohesive character-wise, but I always thought killing his parents felt a bit jarring and OOC at that point in his "insanity spiral." The first crime comes from outrage & hatred, while the latter is over the top cold logic- his explanation "it would be hypocritical to spare them" seems underwhelming to me.

2. Gojo having a bounty on his head throughout his whole childhood. He might have infinity but on a practical level, loved ones are vulnerable to blackmail or hostage situations. Logically they are a weakness and the more you have, the weaker you are.

I think Gojo has so many things going on that contribute to his isolation and inability to connect- (obnoxious personality, immense power, trauma from Toji attack) that this crazy aspect of his life is brushed off. I feel like in any other character, the bounty would be seen as a major contributor to their psychology.

We see throughout the story that anytime Gojo loves or shows humanity towards another (Amanai, Suguru, Megumi (even Yuuji)) he is narratively punished for it.

Cheers!!

hello!

thank you for sharing your thoughts! i'll try my best to explain my own. my thoughts on gojo are especially jumbled since he's such a complicated character.

(1) gege has shown himself to be the type to of artist to ground his fiction in reality. i think the narrative overwhelmingly points to jujutsu sorcerers generally being perceived as "freaks" by non-sorcerers. miminana are extreme examples of this, whereas the old man geto beat up in the hidden inventory arc is a milder one.

"how would parents react if their child told them they could see/hear things they couldn't?" -> that's the question i imagine gege asked himself when he wrote this detail into jjk.

i think geto's abilities were a cause of concern for his parents, with the potential for it to have actually translated into fear. he does seem to have a special place in his heart for chosen families. i think that suggests a difficult home life. we can only speculate how bad it was though. enough for him to go through with him killing his parents nonchalantly, as far as we know. abuse wouldn't be a wildly off-base assumption.

(2) i think gojo's character is definitely marked by his station in society. the good and the bad that come with it. people really don't tend to talk about the bounty on his head, bc it's such an "oh, by the way" fact that gege fits into the story. gege probably mulled over it though (he's a serious overthinker). so i don't think it's something ppl should dismiss when thinking about gojo's psychology. some of his self-imposed isolation can be traced back to instances like it.

as an older kid and a tween, especially. i would guess gojo was probably asking himself stuff like who can he trust in this world? who can he open up to? when the world is out to kill him. the bounty on his head also probably accustomed him to solve problems with power/violence.

i think this mindset was disrupted by geto in high school, though. gojo grows to be quite generous with his trust after him. he has a lot of faith in others as an adult. so i think geto, on top of everything, inadvertently helped gojo heal and process some of his pain from childhood.

i say this bc the disconnect gojo seems to refer to in ch 236, seems different. more a result of the higher state of mind he acquires. he basically tells geto in the afterlife that it isn't rooted in loneliness, after all. which i also take to mean, not necessarily in childhood trauma by that point. but a sense that no one can possibly understand what it means to be strong— and still be powerless.

that's why i believe gojo wasn't being punished for his humanity so much as being taught a lesson on how power can only take him so far— time and time again.

this whole lesson sets up the world to be able to move on without him. life doesn't ultimately hinge on one person and i think gojo knows this to be true, which is why he's always so.. relaxed when he's taken out of the equation. while everyone else scrambles to put him back in. (funnily enough, even fans do this). 

ppl look at him and think he's above them. when inevitably, he'll die, just as all beings do. which i think is what the following sequence was about, too. and what gojo mostly meant when he said "he alone is the honored one [to come to knows this]"(in contrast to when gege used it for sukuna(x) who goes on to distinguish himself from gojo in the way he only pleases/satisfies himself). the saying has several connotations (x).

hope that makes sense!

I no longer write reader inserts, so consider this one of my last ever. 💕

Fic info /chapter key/ warnings (disclaimers there as well)

An: when I refer to Miguel ex wife it’s not Maria. Maria is a queen and i hate omitting her but I can’t do her dirty. I love her. Let’s imagine she is somewhere living her best life. This wife is someone else.

Warnings: overall canon show and content ones, sex, drinking, adultery.

📣Shout out to @thesolotomyhan, since it’s been so long, I needed to hype myself up by rereading some of her sexy head canons. It helped me weave my scattered notes for this chapter into place.

😤To those ppl who like to harass writers who use their imagination and pair Pacho with a women just out of pure imagination and make believe - if any of you are reading, leave me alone. There is zero reason to write me. Yes he is bi in my *make believe* fiction - I am no longer explaining myself after this. - signing off, a bisexual queer writer who uses her damn imagination.

Below is a preview ~ read on a03

Flashback - A few weeks ago

It was dark out when the plane landed. Everyone was exhausted and there was very little conversation. You couldn’t wait to get home and sleep in your own bed, to get away from all this tension for a little while. Miguel felt like a volcano about to burst and for the last couple of hours, you’ve had this bad feeling stirring in your gut, like something terrible was about to happen.

Amado was first to leave, you said your goodbyes and watched him drive off. After the car vanished in the distance, you turned to Miguel, Azul was up ahead waiting for him, and from the look on his face, you knew he had some bad news.

“I’m going to head home. I’ll see you later.” As you said, studying Miguels eyes.

He was distracted, understandably so. Miguel nodded with tense brows.

"Goodnight Miguel.” You gently touched his shoulder, then walked to your driver.

On the way over, you took a deep breath. Though Miguel's whole plan went to shit, you’re thankful he'll be occupied. The last thing on his mind won't be what you were up to. Maybe you can keep your Pacho secret a little longer.

.

Now, Saturday

Champagne flows freely as the guests fill the room with conversation, laughter, and general revelry. The overall vibe is upbeat and from the outside, this would look like just any rich person's party.

It was parties just like this that reunited you and Miguel all those years ago. It takes you back to that first night you kissed on the balcony, when he was a better version of himself, not yet tainted by all of this.

Before, Miguel was an old schoolmate turned bodyguard who stole your heart. Now, here you are, on his arm at a fancy political Gala. The last time he invited you to one of these as his date you told him to fuck off. You weren’t speaking to him, and in true Miguel fashion, he showed up at your door anyway.

"I told you to stay away from me. Leave me alone, Miguel!" You started to close the door.

He stopped it, "from you, yes. Not this town, not this street." He said with that air of smug confidence of his.

Now, here you are, sitting beside him at the round table with a black cloth draped across it. Gold accents on the glasses and decorations, and one of the richest meals you've ever had in your stomach.

You’re not sure why you said yes to this one, maybe it's that little part of you that feels guilty about Pacho, or the even smaller part that still wants to hold on to a piece of Miguel.

You haven’t spent a lot of time with him in the last week due to a mix of avoidance and fearing he’ll look into your eyes long enough to know your secret. Then there's the other part of you, that third part that wants him to find out. It wants to see the look in his eyes once he knows you’ve been fucking the man he hates…

I know this is a really stupid question, but why is the Jan stevens kink (I don’t know what it’s called sry) kinda upsetting for some people? Like, toxic or whatever. I totally respect it, it’s just not clicking in my head if that makes sense? I’m just not totally clear on what’s wrong with it. I haven’t thought about it much though, so maybe that’s on me. I just thought maybe you could enlighten me, ‘cause now I’m curious. Thx 💟

hi!! ofc, happy to explain it!

the way i wrote it, it's really not extreme -- and that's the level of that kink (i generally referred to it as alvinolagnia -- a belly/midriff partialism -- will include some info at the end of this post) that i was personally comfortable with writing. there is nothing wrong with that kink per se -- however! if we are talking specifically about feederism there is a lot of..... let's say... disturbing stuff associated with it. in certain spaces (online and irl) a lot of feeders are men who enjoy forcing their female partners to eat absurd amounts of food and gain an absurd amount of weight -- so much so that they need to rely on their partner to do things for them. it also involves those men calling those women pretty nasty slurs, and a popular one is to call your partner a pig. a lot of fatphobia combined with misogyny in that community, but also glorification of obesity (we are talking about people who gain so much weight they can barely walk by themselves anymore). it's..... a lot.

HOWEVER. you could argue that most kinks have their extreme sides. in the bdsm community, for example, you could have a light dom/sub dynamic in the bedroom, or you could be someone's full time slave, have your partner control every aspect of your life, including your finances etc. so basically, another person practically owns you. that's also real icky haha. but then again, we all like to read a nice smutty fic with light dom/sub dynamics, right? and i think there's no harm in that.

what rubs people the wrong way about this kink is that it can get real disturbing and extreme real fast -- and a lot of people who are into it ARE on the extreme side. however, there are definitely people who just enjoy some harmless belly kink stuff, but i feel like they are not as loud as the disturbing part of that crowd haha, so people don't tend to pay attention to them. for them, belly kink + feederism is immediately something very extreme.

i think a lot of the ick people feel for that particular kink is because of deep fatphobia that runs in our society. people would literally rather drink piss than feel bloated for one (1) hour haha. bc when you look at it, how is that ickier than like... feet? or piss? or even breeding, which is a very popular kink online lol (also with that one you could find heaps of Problematique(TM) stuff, such as forced pregnancy stuff etc.). or like plain old choking. how is choking less disturbing that like... being bloated and getting off on it lol. so that's for sure something to think about.

so basically, the overall take would be -- every kink can range from fun, mild, and harmless to very disturbing/borderline abuse -- some kinks can skew into the icky territory much faster than others though, so that is also something to keep in mind.

so, there -- those were yourlocaldisneyvillain's hot takes for today. enjoy kink!week :))) see you tomorrow :*

(that being said -- ppl are allowed to dislike or be grossed out by any kink for any reason. there doesn't have to be anything deeper to it) some info about alvinolagnia/ belly stuffing/feederism that i already included in the jan fic is under the cut!

Alvinolagnia is another term for a belly fetish. Alvinolagnia is a partialism in which an individual is sexually attracted to the midriff or belly. The belly is widely considered as an erogenous region, meaning it holds multiple nerve endings that make it sensitive to various sensations. Therefore, having a belly fetish usually coincides with belly-related sexual acts including but not limited to touching/rubbing the belly region, using sex toys and other objects to stimulate the belly region, rubbing one's belly against a partner's belly, or licking or sucking the navel.

A kink that closely relates to the belly fetish is belly stuffing — which is when people get a psychological thrill and sexual pleasure from the idea of eating a lot — doing it themselves, or witnessing someone else do it.

Belly stuffing can be related to feederism. Feederism is a fat fetish subculture in which individuals eroticise weight gain and feeding. Feeders are individuals who are sexually aroused by feeding their partners and encouraging them to gain weight. Feederism encompasses people being turned on by feeding, belly stuffing, weight gain, fat, and often, dominance and submission.

[theinfinitedivides]

this is so random but i would love to hear your opinion on mydramalist as a fellow asian drama lover. because it’s obviously well known as a reliable wiki of sorts in dramaland but i beg to differ. (the only plus i feel being the summary and cast list for info)

i mean, i’ve not seen a single comsec w more than two brain cells as a whole? there’s always complaints about female leads rooted from misogyny, they are never happy about story progression, and i just find so many of them kinda dumb sorry lol. like zero media literacy to be found, insufferable arguments, etc. the star ratings are rly just given to popular dramas w high profile actors too.

and i personally find it disheartening that so many ppl end up referring to mdl when considering dramas because so many gems are then lost and not given appreciation.

anon. anon anon anon if you know the way i sat straight the f*ck up when i saw the notification and then read through this ask bc yes. yes to everything here that is exactly it. almost three fourths of what i've watched this year was either 1. not received well by the general MDL crowd (Moon in the Day. where is the taste brethren to not like MITD and not even for reasons that actually make sense), 2. received well but had a good chunk of people bitching in the comment section, or 3. received well but had the main point of the show (and its relevant characterization) go over their heads. (The Worst of Evil aka TWOE comment section, i am f*cking looking at you. i can count on one hand the number of people who understood what that show was supposed to be about) the one fourth that managed to escape was bc the toxicity did not reach the comment section and everyone was pretty f*cking civil. alas if only it could be like that all of the time

case in point for the ratings example, since we've already briefly tackled the lack of media literacy—j-dramas on MDL are notoriously rated much, much lower than either k- or c-dramas. half of the time that's bc there are less users watching (and rating) them therefore the average is lower but the other half it's bc people simply do not understand good media when they see it. don't get me wrong there's some freaky ass sh*t in the j-drama world that i would not touch with a Grinch level pole but to see MDLers out here talking about how slow j-dramas are and that nothing's happening. have you considered that you are either watching the wrong genre or you shouldn't be watching j-dramas in the first place bc their entire setup and general narrative framing arcs are not your style. have you even thought about that for six seconds or are you too busy expecting it to read like a typical tropey rom-com k-drama with your trending oppas. (no hate on my tropey rom-coms with [most of] said oppas, i need them when i don't want to think i just want to see sh*t on my screen and scream about hot people and the Hand Umbrellas in the Rain and the Back Hold when the male lead catches the female lead before she falls and you have the fifteen second focus on their faces just looking at each other)

and the misogyny. oh God do not get me started on the dichotomy that was the Cult, as we affectionatly called ourselves, on the feeds while THEE sageuk of the year My Dearest was airing (beloved show [that i still need to finish. JangChae i'm sorry ily life hates me like the mf it is 😭], beloved commentary on the feeds. they saw the vision on the feeds) vs the sh*tshow that was the landmine field of the comment section (the takes i saw on Gil Chae, Eun Ae AND Ryang Eum respectively.......... the misogyny wasn't enough we had to add the homophobia into the mix. buy one get one free deal fr fr). you mad man. that sh*t was insane there was a point i banned myself from scrolling farther than the cast section until the show finished airing. i kid you not on average they didn't have even half a braincell. maybe a quarter of a quarter of one. f*cked up just say you are not decent people and go

this is not to say that all of MDL is like this. i have gotten tuned into absolute masterpieces of content (and have tuned others, amen) bc of a comment comparing a show i'm watching to another one or a review being posted in the feeds about a film with less than 500 people interested. i have reconsidered my choice to not watch something after having spirited discussions in private messages discussing the pros and cons of the premise and whether they managed to get it done without f*cking sh*t up. i still contribute semi-regularly by adding relatively unknown actors and crew members to the database so they can get the credit due them. if you know where to look, you can get some good sh*t out of that place. problem is most users who are new to both the site and East/Southeast Asian cinema as a whole don't know where to look, and the cycle continues, and the ratings continue to be skewed/bloated and no one pays attention to the plot, if there even is any to pay attention to.

tl;dr: begging people to not let MDL be the be all end all for their drama recs a la 'well MDL doesn't like it so i won't watch it'. babe we have said MDLers complaining about how the ratings on Viki are too high but in my entire time watching dramas i've found that in the past two to three years the Viki ratings are making more sense than the MDL ones. sit with that for a sec. when you're done branch out and see the world (literally and cinematically), i promise you will be a better person for it

[golbrocklovely]

i'm just gonna make very quick, general post since i got multiple asks about this topic.

sorry to those that hate seeing me mention snc's love lives, but it's what the ppl want, i guess lol

it has been brought to my attention that the girl colby was seen with back in october (ms singer as i've referred to her on here) said in a live stream the other night that both him and m and sam and la girl are dating.

i'll be so honest with yall: if she said that, cool. but where is the proof? you're telling me she dropped this bomb of info and no one screen recorded it? likely story lol

so until i see the proof of her full on saying "yeah snc are dating la girl and m" i'm not gonna believe it. sorry.

also.... as i've stated a million times before and will have to keep saying it until i'm blue in the face: wait until snc say something themselves. there is no point in jumping the gun.

and respectfully to everyone that thinks this is proof that snc are off the market, may i talk this out for just a moment? if you want to make the argument that sam and his girl are dating, that's fine. i can kinda see it. they've been with each other since sept/oct, so it makes sense that maybe there is something more happening there. but colby and m???? they only started "seeing" each other around sam's bday. that's a month.

you think colby, mr. non committal, dated a girl a month and is now ready to announce her as his official gf????? bffr. that's all i'm saying.

genuinely, if they are dating those girls, that's great. i'm happy for them. even if they seem a bit odd for posting constantly right after snc post all the time, whatever. snc are grown men. they are almost 30. if they want to date women like that, let them. who cares. not your monkeys, not your circus lol

A part of me genuinely wants to make a post linking to all of the Helluva/Hazbin drama so far with proper sources and receipts so that people don't get confused or keep talking over each other. I can 100% confirm that is the case w this fandom and it's critical fandom ftr.

I def know it'd be a place showing Erin, Ken and UnkleJoe(?)'s allegations against Spindlehorse in one spot. I think those are the only excrew members who've come forward with any definite negative vibes???

As far as compiling all of the "controversies" made against Viv like her 'being a pedo' I feel like we could go over that briefly, because I don't agree and I think that and the now-ancient Dollcreep drama still needs to have the record set straight and have the facts rolled out for ppl. Would also need to go over what is true regarding Viv at some point liking Blair White or being on a panel with Emily Youcis. I can def go into the later about how that's not really valid or at least should be held against the other animators at that panel.

Of the outspoken goodfaith critics who've gotten needlessly lambasted by the fanbase I think we have KediKatzen, Diregentlemen, HezuNeutral and now Cartoonshi. Prolly not going to go into smaller scuffles like the incident back in 2018/19 with that one young artist who was trashed for her redesigns.

I'm holding off because 1) I'm really bad at keeping+documenting files and info like that, especially if any of it has to be updated repeatedly 2) I would probably also have a list of at least 2 (or 3, if the rumors abt a certain someone are in fact untrue) definitely bad faith-critics who I'd advise fans and other criticals to steer clear from and not use as reference. I just think it'd be good to jot those names down alongside general "don't go to badwebcomicswiki PERIOD"-advice.

Which brings me point 3) - I'd also be explaining the BadWebcomicsWiki forums and the incident where Viv and her friends were shown graphic rape art in the name of 'criticism'. Come on, fair is fair.

Hi hi! ૮ ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶ ა 

I know ur inbox is probably stuffed with match up requests but if u have the time could u do me? 

You can do characters from either genshin or hsr, I don’t mind either! Whatever you feel like 

I have no preference when it comes to the gender of the character

Im agender and don’t care abt what pronouns I’m referred to as. I think I’m a infj and a Leo (I haven’t don’t deep research into both topics)

 Ngl I have a hard time describing my personality (╥﹏╥) I’m a very indecisive person, but once I start doing something I’m determined to finish it. I can be an airhead at times and very forgetful 

I like art, music, games and history. Ive also very intrigued recently with AI and how it works. I get distracted really easily and do deep dives into whatever peeked my interest.

I dislike loud people and ppl who have a temper. Although I would love to go on an amusement park date or something along the lines of that, crowded places with lots of people drain my energy

Alone time is very important to me!! I also really value comfortable silence. My love language (on the receiving end) would probably be acts of service or quality time, but any work with me tbh. On the giving end I love to give gifts. I often catch myself being a hopeless romantic and make up fake scenarios often ૮ • ﻌ - ა . My dream would be to travel the world with my s/o and a pet

I don’t have a type but I do love animals, so I’d prefer if my s/o would be chill with them 

I hope this is enough info. Or not too much!! If you feel uncomfortable or ur having a hard time deciding a s/o feel free to skip this request. Thank you for ur time!! ଘ(੭*ˊᵕˋ)੭* ੈ♡‧₊˚

SWEEEETIEEEE HAIIヾ( ˃ᴗ˂ )◞ •

A/n- oh if you only knew, i have so much requests in my inbox and I want to finish them till new years but it's killing me because they just keep coming everyday, but I'm not complaining I love all of my darlings a lot 🫂

Nevermind that, I already have someone in mind for you , so here is your matchup-

DAN HENG

Introvert x introvert

I paired you up with Dan Heng because I think he's a perfect match literally

Most of the times you guys are together, it's just sitting in the same room, each doing their own thing,not talking, just sitting in that comfortable silence enjoying each others comapny

Also your love languages align, he's very much a quality time and acts of service person, he prefers spending time and chatting with you over anything

Also expect small massages from time to time, or a small Portion of food made only for you

He's also very interested in history, and aswell in AI and generally technology, so you guys can talk about it a whole bunch and exchange thoughts.

when you're working on something important and get distracted, don't worry Dan Heng is there to get you back on track, he's very thoughtful for that

As for your animal concern, dont worry, aslong as it's like not a tiger or something he's chill with it

Especially with cats, he's a big cats person.

im going to post this not only as a way to defend myself but to also put out the truth so that lies arent being spread around. shoutout to anyone in this group called illustrio as this will help put out some info for those wondering whats going on:

for starters, i joined a fun discord group set in the marauders era as it was intended for busy people with busy schedules. as someone who hasnt roleplayed in a long time due to working full-time hours, this was the perfect setup for me. however, things seem to change...and yes, for the worse.

i received this message from one of the admins expressing how my inactivity has led to some difficulty interacting/proceeding with the group's plot points, which was a valid concern. i have since messaged every time i got busy and even apologized for not being around as much as i wouldve liked (which i didnt rlly have to tbh considering that the group was made FOR busy ppl but anyways). i then proceeded to ask if any other issues may have occurred that need to be brought up so we can discuss and move on successfully and healthily as a group, but it seems that i have been kicked out before i could even get the chance to reach out. despite it all, my main goal was to get clarity and ask for the true reasons why i was being let go (mind you i was still at work when this happened so i only got back to reply an hour later):

i thought the first initial message was very fair and respectful. so i reciprocated that tone in my reply:

surprisingly, the mun took a turn in the tone of their next reply and i was genuinely stumped by how things got intense very quickly:

i can go on and on about how problematic this reply was, but i knew this kind of response isn't worth fussing about so i just prepared another reply to cease any interactions with this person, but of course, i was blocked before it could be sent through:

as mentioned in my last response, there were many uncomfortable instances in the group that happened and yes, i shouldve spoken out when i could have gotten the chance as it was happening, but the amount of time i have spent roleplaying in general, has just made me ignore those 'hiccups' when they did occur. regardless, it was a very weird and absurd reply and until now im still wondering where this reaction came from when i reached out very neutrally from the get-go.

i usually shrug these type of things off as it unfortuantely does happen from time to time in the rp community, but i only decided to take matters into my own hands when im being accused of calling the mun mentioned above slurs.

despite it being a very SERIOUS accusation, i made sure to review our past messages and see where and when i could have made a comment that harmful (which i did not) just to be sure i didnt offend/harm/belittle anyone. as expected, i have seen that there are NO offensive messages in our chats as we only talked for a brief amount of time and never really got to again before they messaged me privately about this matter. below are the screenshots of our conversations before this dilemma. i have NOT touched our chats at all, so saying i have been deleting messages??? another strange thing to say:

these screenshots are the only instances where and when we talked and as im looking through, i still dont see any of the slurs that im being accused of. i havent had any 1 on 1 interactions with the mun with any of our characters either during my time in the group and only got to to talk to o through the general/public ic chats on the server.

i thought that this mun was overall, very friendly and kind. i had no issues with them whatsoever, so im wondering where the sudden change in reactions came from as i genuinely and wholeheartedly never gave them a reason to hate/dislike me.

i have since reached out to one of my friends who is also in the group and he has been sharing how the group and current admins believe that i have been referring to this mun with slurs. i hope that whoever is still in that group sees this and gets the WHOLE story before accusing someone of something this serious. it's truly tarnishing and hurtful that lies are being spread about my name, so please give this a thorough review before listening to only one side of the story and not verifying anything.

(statement from the admin; i hope they can see this thread and re-evaluate what REALLY happened) :

also, when the previous admin had managed the group, i thought they were very friendly and welcoming and had no issues with them as well, so this is all very confusing and surprising to me to say the least. as shown above on the screenshot, my first reply had been very neutral and in no way did i 'lash' out at the mun when they had first messaged me as stated in that photo.

and again, before you accuse someone of anything serious ESPECIALLY slurs, please make sure that you have the necessary proof to do so. regarding that, i have asked in the beginning of the message for any proof to show when and where i may have offended this person, but as i stated and will continue to say: i dont think i have the means to dehumanize someone else all because of a roleplay. if you have had that experience, please report them immediately. if you are someone who says slurs, please seek help and re-evaluate yourself before harming others.

all in all, i think the group was fun while it lasted. everyone seemed friendly and welcoming but this unfortunate turn of events has made me want to take a break from roleplaying in the next bit. i hope this could clear up the air as i intended to initially. thanks so much again if you got to read this far.

firstly and most importantly, i am beyond proud of kibum for releasing a song that’s very obviously about having sex with another man like that’s such a bold and courageous step to take in an entertainment industry operating in such a conservative country like south korea, like he’s so fucking cool for doing this. love him endlessly!

i am really curious about how sm came to approve the intoxicating lyrics though - obviously sex is not something sm groups have ever avoided making music about but i think this is the first time an idol under the company has released a song that so directly references a same-sex partner in general, let alone in a sexual context. of course kibum has always done whatever he pleases and has never needed the validation of others but g&g is a sm release, so the company would have had oversight. i hope this doesn’t come off as negative btw, it’s absolutely not meant to! i’m just wondering what made sm give intoxicating the green light considering it is a potentially risky song to release to conservative audiences in korea. i guess my question is - do you think sm are fully aware that the song is about gay sex and are just letting kibum run wild or do you think there’s a more nuanced reason as to why they approved the song? do you think the execs somehow didn’t catch on to the obvious implications of the song or thought they were subtle enough for listeners to not pick up on? again, sorry if this reads the wrong way. i love the song and the album and kibum, i’m just very interested in learning about how it came to be haha.

but also HOLY FUCK he must be getting the best lay of his life rn to be writing lyrics like that

hello! hope you are well!

i love this message, because ugh it touches on things i just love to talk about. kim kibum, music, and gay sex dhdhdjjsjsjs. so thank you.

i think? this might be a long reply, so be prepared, and i'm lowkey wine drunk, so PLEASE forgive me if it's a bit all over the place......

first of all, i would really love to touch upon the whole 'how could he get away with this in such a conservative country' but genuinely? despite what we observe of south korea via kpop (because let's be honest, that's where most of us get our info about the country. not @ you, just a generalisation) it's honestly not as uber conservative as you think. like in terms of lgbt+ people? if that makes sense. like gay ppl are everywhere, and they WILL find their own people.

because

though i think a lot of westerners think sk is like, this place where lgbtq+ people hide, and have no comminuty???

(again, not at you! i just know this is something i have observed, and i'm using your message as a like, a way to address the topic as a whole.)

south korea has a very vibrant and active lgbtq+ community!

admittedly, i am far from the best person to talk about this, but the point i'm trying to make is-

key IS super brave for how overt he is

but, he has the backing of a vocal community. and, we will always find and support our people.

and, how he gets away with it, is, heteronormativity.

it goes a long way.

the lyrics are vague enough (for straight ppl) that they can pretend it's not about kibum fucking dudes.

like, we know because we know

and same goes for the company

it's either, they're too oblivious to know what he's saying, or, they know that only those who know will know so? no harm?

so like, a mixture of awareness meets letting him run wild?

and yes!

literally, kibum having great gay sex is something i genuinely have hoped he has, and, from the sounds of it...! mwah, good for you bestie!

Hello!!

First of all wanted to say how much i enjoy your art :)) I'm an artist and am thinking of taking in commissions maybe through ko-fi although i have no idea where to begin with pricing since i dont have ant experience with selling art. I thought of doing comms without payment at first but my friend told me to just get right into business with pricing. So I wanted to ask, as a beginner taking in conms what are some things to put in mind? and whats a good pricing point?

You dont need to answer this if you're not comfy but im just asking around so I can know what im doing heh, Thank you!!! <3

Hi hi!

Pricing:

I started taking commissions around March of last year, so I'd say I'm still testing the waters in terms of pricing. You can start by looking at the pricing of artists who have a similar style as you. I know ppl also calculate their pricing by hourly rate, but because my processes are usually not consecutive and can span more than a week, I couldn't really use that method.

I priced my commissions relatively higher (i know there's artists who do more detailed drawings for less the price) because I don't want commissions to take over the time I need to study, especially during exam weeks. So you can take that into account when you're figuring out your prices.

I'd say avoid doing free commissions since I feel like I wasted a lot of my time doing them for the sake of extracurriculars and forming connections. You can occasionally do drawing requests by picking randomly from the replies as it gives you more freedom to choose what to draw, and is less time-consuming than doing full-on free commissions.

Tips:

For the first few months I had my DM's open on all my social media platforms for commission requests, but I ended up getting a bunch of scams on insta so I had that DM closed.

The general rule of thumb when figuring out if it's a scam or not is to see if they are passionate about what they want you to draw. All of the ppl who commissioned me were eager to tell me about either their character/person, as compared to scam accounts that barely give you any info other than one reference photo (one of them asked me to draw their son's cat, but when I asked what's the cat's name they just ignored my question)

AUGHGA the people have spoken. good god i hope this makes sense:

cole death symbolism is fairly well established i think? but here is a list of a lot of the different parts of it just for reference. one thing that stood out to me the more i thought abt it was that his becoming a ghost and s10 “death” both have him come CLOSE to dying, but never actually crossing the threshold. i think i made this post a while ago just talking abt that phenomena in relation to cole.

ALSO in relation to cole and death (which i see ppl talk abt but not necessarily as part of the overall death symbolism he has which i think is interesting) is the older-mirror scene in s5. the writers later made this scene foreshadow his ‘disappearance’ in s5 which. was not done particularly well lol, and so it can easily be reinterpreted. if we assume that, on a narrative level, this scene is not explaining his ability to disappear, but is actually foreshadowing his death. well.

it’s kind of unclear how old everyone is supposed to be when they see themselves in the mirror?? because they are legos but like. they are certainly not super old, which (if we are continuing on the assumption that cole dies before everyone else) means that cole very specifically dies young.

lets come back to that in a minute i have to take a quick tangent about cycles. also something i feel is well established, but its important for background info. one thing ninjago does A LOT of is have its main characters repeat things. both things they themselves have done AND ALSO things their parents/ancestors have done. think nya becoming the sea the same way nyad did, lloyd having to fight the overlord in a never ending loop like the fsm, etc.

the whole deal with cycles and generational trauma etc etc when specifically talking abt cole is centered on his mom; he does almost exactly everything his mom did before she died in s13 (adjusted for the situation) and of course has her element. if this extends to his actions, it could certainly also extend to his death. i think this is more evidence to the idea than anything else? like cole dying young is a continuation of the loop unintentionally created for him by his mother.

to actually return to the point i was making, cole is surrounded by death. he almost dies a couple times, but his death is stopped partially or entirely by some other supernatural force. based on this he could be seen absolutely as a psychopomp/grim reaper, but because of both the s5 symbolism and his mom, im really more inclined to say that he is more doomed by the universe to die at some point. now this is really me speculating and tbh just making things up, but i think this does lend credibility to the idea that the universe itself is keeping cole from dying at these points (s5, s10) because there is some point in the future that the universe has literally decided is the time that he is Going To Die.

and like why??? what is so significant about that (theoretical) death that the universe is literally changing the laws of physics to stop this man from dying? what is so important about this point in time that the whole world is bending over backwards to make sure it happens?

going to get emotional now but like! cole being the first to die of everyone is so crazy to me! cole who is the leader and the oldest and the most mature and the one trying so hard to keep everyone together who dies first, and dies young! just like his mom!! in a world where robots come back from the dead every single year and the children of gods live forever there is one guy who has a point that he can never come back from. despite evading death he is surrounded by it; he cant die yet because you cant fight destiny!! your time will come bitch!!

anyway tldr; i think that cole dies young just like his mom because the universe loves him and has big plans for him. or maybe the universe just cares about perpetuating the cycle whos to say.

i don't want to call this a DNI, because tbf i don't care if people who don't agree with me follow me. if you pick fights about it, you're getting blocked. but if you are anti-endo, exclusionist (including more "weird" identities like bi lesbian), or feel any type of strong opinions about the proship debate (in literally any way), you will occasionally see things that make you uncomfortable or piss you off. do with that what you will.

I have some controversial opinions on disso disorders but wont be sharing them in depth until I learn more about dissociative disorders and get info that isnt solely from the isstd..

"plural" tumblr would cancel me 4 the opinions i think -_- ....

I just wonder how much of this "plural culture" is real for people and how much is just from us being suspectible and easily influenced by others, esp on tumblr and tiktok where u see it get uh. Real interesting. Like, identity in general is a very easily influenced thing. I have never resonated much with "plural culture", in fact I detest it and find it annoying but yeah I was just curious idk. Anyways onto the more srs stuff

I know dissociative states are real, but does the language we use to describe these states affect these states and how we perceive them? Should i refer to my very real, unintergrated states with different memories and barriers as "alters" for example...? Or parts even? .. i also wonder if therapists trained in dissociative disorders ever think deeply and critically about this (but who am i kidding xD most therapists do not know what dissociation is...). Even ppl who struggle w dissociation struggle to explain what it is. I am slowly chugging thru Nijenhuis texts trying to figure it all out... just very slowly.... very slowly.

All of this questioning started bc I read an anonymous testimony from the "false memory foundation" that a therapist tricked her into thinking she had DID and false memories... (its a very triggering website btw, they advocate for parents who are supposedly accused falsely of things and yeah u can see how thats problematic... i dont wanna go into why its problematic. Anyways) ...that testimony could have been totally fake, yet my brain asks "well what if its real? What does that mean then?".. bc ofc my brain gives everything the benefit of the doubt which is how i fall trap to some rather loony ways of thinking.

anyways; We know the author of the Haunted Self, (a very in depth text about dissociative disorders and trauma), Onno van der Hart, abused one his patient. So like... therapists with bad intentions is a very real thing that happens and those who struggle with dissociation are at risk, esp by therapists who have studied dissociation that deeply and may know how to use it for bad purposes :( scary how a therapist who was studying dissociative disorders, which arise from severe trauma, abused his patient. Very scary stuff. I dont trust what psychiatrists or therapists say about dissociative disorders sometimes........

I have my tinfoil hat on right now, yes 8) ... i always do these days its annoying -_- i think weed makes it worse, genuinely. Idk what morning me will think of this post but im gonna sleep on it
