#not consensual

[vizthedatum]

I don’t think my character should be judged on my limitations as a disabled person. I do want to do a lot of things (I’m easily excited and genuinely want to do things), I do make plans, but my body sometimes has other ideas about its ability… not just on any given day but from moment to moment.

Look, just like with sex or any activity in the world, if you don’t consent or can’t do something (even if you previously consented or agreed), then you can back out. Please listen to your body and yourself.

Do things when you can and if you want to.

Backing out isn’t a mark on your character and doesn’t make you less trustworthy.

Let the other people in the situation have a chance to be compassionate and show their character. It’s not always on you.

You can communicate and tell people where you’re at, but don’t let anyone tell you that you’re not trustworthy because of your disability or even uncomfortability.

But what about “actions need to be consistent with words”

Yeah they do - your non-consent at any time is consistent with your words. Their lack of compassion is not congruent with their supposed respect for who you are.

People can always work on their character, including us. And some people will unfortunately use this argument to justify neglect, toxic behaviors, or abuse - this isn’t a one-size fits all argument. (“But that’s just who I am” they’ll say even though they know they’re hurting you. They’ll say your disability hurt them too… just walk away tbh)

Just know this:

You are worthy and deserving of respect. Always.

It's been 7 long years.

The final season of Percy Jackson and the Olympians has just begun to release.

The Ares and Apollo cabins are in a dispute over ownership for the flying chariot.

The counselors sit around a table in the Big House.

Percy has just learned that he's (probably) gonna die in the next month, when Clarisse and Michael begin to bicker. Percy has had it up to here.

He starts clapping rhythmically. There is a lull in the room as they stare at him.

He claps faster.

"Oh golly, the road's getting bumpy, cause I've got me some friends who just can't get along-"

The biting will continue until morale improves. The biting will also continue after morale improves. The biting will continue, regardless of the state of morale. [biting noises]

i know it’s like years old at this point but i love that one collab mumbo and grian did with tommyinnit bc it’s like the single most concentrated example i’ve seen of mumbo’s Chaos Nullification Powers

you get to see a bit of it on hermitcraft, mostly via his interactions with grian, but until seeing that collab it didn’t really hit me just how completely mumbo can no-sell other people’s attempts to control a situation. tommyinnit is possibly the single shoutiest, most chaotic minecraft youtuber out there, and in most videos i’ve seen he pretty much overwhelms everyone else and sets the tone for interactions because of this. but mumbo just. doesn’t let him. no matter how much tommy escalates in intensity, mumbo reacts with *exactly* the same energy he always does. grian largely comes across in the whole video as annoyed and reluctant to engage with the whole thing, but mumbo’s not even affected. he just rolls with anything he finds funny and basically ignores anything he disapproves of, only seeming more and more unflappable the harder anyone tries to get a rise out of him.

AND imo, this is the key to my favorite interpretation of him as a character

see, when the people around him are being more reasonable/calm, i think mumbo often comes across as anxious and a bit easily overwhelmed. the thing is, his nervous wet cat vibes do not scale. he has one setting. his responses to the last life ‘ah-ha!’ jokes and to hermitcraft 8 starting to crumble to pieces under a falling moon are almost identical.

mumbo jumbo is inexorably and eternally Just Some Guy, but that gets stranger and stranger the weirder his surroundings become. the giggly incredulousness that makes him an easy target for goofy puns looks Very different when it’s also his reaction to the impending end of the world.

Something about the way the doctors always argue when they meet themselves but all of them are always dunking on ten so specifically. Like yes they will all argue with each other but they take one look at that version of themselves and go yikes. You were my middle school cringe fail phase. You're shiny and dumb and easy to trick. There is so much wrong with you. Unlike me. I'm much more normal now (lying).
