I’ve read and been in a few debates based on how Gromit would talk and personally, I think he’d talk kinda like Wallace.

Hear me out, in the original concept for Wallace and Gromit Nick Park said that Gromit was just going to repeat everything Wallace said, but in a doggy voice (I think don't quote me), but besides that, Wallace literally raised him, he’s had him since he was a puppy.

Idk about you guys but I picked up a lot of slang and mannerisms from my parents so I feel like it makes sense for Gromit to be the same way. I know he is a lot different from Wallace in a lot of ways like being aware and quicker on his toes but I think speech is a lot easier to like pick up on yk? Also I hc Wallace is just the way he is cuz he’s old but that's just me.

Also I definetly think they made a great choice making Gromit a silent character but I really wish they’d give us the recordings of Peter Hawkins talking for Gromit, that might just be me desperate for content though.

Anyways that's the end of my mini-rant, ta-ra 👋

“Autism doesn’t cause low empathy! In fact we’re all just hyperempathetic we’re not bad peo-“

SHUT UP. SHUT UP. SHUT UP.

There’s a few things going on with this statement.

1. Assuming that low empathy makes someone a bad person. It does not. Actions are what matter, not empathy levels.

2. Demonizing autistic people whose low/no empathy they attribute to their autism. Autism fundamentally impacts the way you interact with the world, others, and yourself. That includes empathy.

Anyway I love you people with low/no empathy this is a safe space for you <3

Signed,

A very pissed off autistic person with fluctuating empathy levels

reminder: shifting is real. you’re going to have memories from when you were a kid or random interactions with people you knew back then. even the dream you may have had when you were 10... oh and perhaps the supermarket you visited with your parents 6 years ago? your life in your dr doesn’t start from the moment you shift there. life is still life. don’t treat your dr as a ‘magical‘ place.

Hey @Tumblr Staff I'm sick and tired of this being my entire fucking for you page.

You created your filtering settings for a reason. My "Blur content" was and always had been OFF. It was off an hour ago, and I just found it on.

This is ridiculous.

If people want to see mature content, let them see mature content.

If people want to filter tags, they can create filtered tags.

If people want all mature content to be censored, they can do that themselves.

Stop. Censoring. Your. Users. And. Get. A. Fucking. Grip.

Both the teenagers and the adults on this app can take care of themselves and monitor their media consumption and if some can't that shouldn't be everybody's problem.

Oh and btw, it's very clear how this is mostly happening to posts from the trans community and anybody under that umbrella.

They didn’t even wait until the 19th to ban TikTok. Honestly I hope people realize how big this situation is. TikTok was a news outlet for a lot of Americans who couldn’t get proper news and information (especially when their own news stations are just propaganda and fake news we don’t need to hear), it was also a home to many small businesses and people just trying to make a living. The US government is NOT banning it because of “data” or whatever shit they made up—they are banning it to control the masses and more than just that. This is bullshit.

I'm new here and I still don't get this... I put the freaking "mature tag" option but every time I get hit whit this... are simply naked body okay or not on Tumblr dot com?

Oh no, my wonder is not "childlike." My whimsy is old. My frivolity is steeped in ancient wisdom.

My silliness is battle worn. My awe at the world has been long forged through trial & tribulation.

I have earned this wonderment. I have protected it for decades against a society that tells me constantly that it should not belong to me.

I was born with wonder, and I have carried it, against all odds, with me through adulthood.

It is not "childlike" by now it is Older than me.

The ao3 comment section and/or the notes of a Tumblr post are NOT a private dialogue between you and the author/poster. If you say something shitty there, other people can — and will — read it. It’s silly to pretend otherwise. Leaving unkind comments is doubly cruel because you are 1) saying something potentially hurtful and 2) allowing other people to see it.

Think twice before posting that kind of comment. Is it kind? Is it helpful? Would it embarrass the OP if someone else saw it?

“i’m thinking logically” and then it’s just cutting out empathy and emotional intelligence

laito rant

I hate when people dumb down laito’s character to just a sex-obsessed pervert. Hes literally so much more than that and i see so many people jsut completely missing the point of his character and *why* he acts the way he is for reasons other than the way the anime made him to be another otome trope. 

First of all, laito was groomed throughout his entire childhood by his mother, cordelia. She would rape him (not sleep with. Rape. Stop saying stuff like “had sex with” and “slept with” because he was a CHILD it was rape) consistently and told him that sex and lust was love- this caused laito to have an extremely twisted vision of what love is and how he expresses his love to the player/yui. 

I think that Laito is very misrepresented in the anime, probably because they didnt have time to get all the characters lore in or else the show would be as long as one piece, but still. He’s not even given a little snippet of a backstory like Shu with Edgar, all we see of his past is him as a little kid where he barely even interacts with his mom which we see in Yui’s nightmare. 

Im so tired of people tearing his character down to just a pervert. Because he’s not- he’s a traumatized kid (idk about kid- wiki says 17 in human but hes like 200+ im pretty sure so idk) whos a victim of manipulation, incest, and rape. It’s not his fault that he’s like that when he was literally convinced by the person you trust the most growing up- his mother, that love is sex. 

Throughout his childhood and mostly teenage years he has thing feeling of emptiness that he feels after having sex (whether it be after being raped by his mother or having a fling with a classmate) where he asks himself something along the lines of “if this is love, why do i feel so empty?” And he mostly has sex to try and fill that void that he has inside of him.

shifting for love is not something to be embarrassed of - it is valid. when you finally find the person, everything else doesn’t matter anymore…
