Hello. My name's Cam.

This is my last post ever. I'll be honest, the past few weeks have been really horrible. To me, Ana is like a persona, another version of me. All though I've tried to love and embrace Ana, she hasn't been that good to me. My hair has been getting thinner and thinner, my nails more brittle, I can barely stand without feeling dizzy and I'm always weak. I've been trying to romanticize Ana but there's nothing fucking romantic about it. It's honestly so miserable. And on top of that, I'm not even fucking skinny. I just thought "what's the point of starving myself and working out for 3 hours a day if no one can even fucking tell". I'm honestly angry and annoyed at myself. To think that I wasted all that time, obsessing over body image and calories, and I'm still the fat friend. I'm still fucking overweight. I'm not skinny. I'm fucking ugly. I hate it. I hate you Ana. I'm annoyed that I wasted so much time glorifying and romanticizing ana when I was so miserable. When most of the time I just wanted to disappear. I'm so mad that I wasted all that time believing that food was my worst enemy. I can't believe how hard I made it to enjoy living. I can't believe how much internal torture I put myself through. I can't believe I thought something as horrible as ana was part of me. I can't believe I just accepted that and never questioned myself. instead of hanging out with my friends and enjoying life, I was at home, in bed because I was so tired. What was the point of all that? I didn't gain anything from it except pounds. Yes, I gained weight instead of loosing weight. What the fuck man. Why would I do that to myself? I just can't believe how much fucking misery I put myself through, all for the sake of being 'beautiful' and skinny and perfect. You know what? Fuck being beautiful, fuck being skinny, fuck being perfect. I'm gonna live life like a normal fucking human. I deserve to be normal. I deserve to live life. Why did I make myself think anything different? So yeah, I'm just gonna stop caring. I don't fucking care about how many calories im eating anymore, I don't care about how many calories in burning. I don't care if I think I need to purge. Shut the fuck up ana. Honestly, shut up. Ana ruined my life. Fuck Ana, fuck eating disorders, fuck being pretty, fuck being perfect, fuck being skinny, since I can't fucking succeed at any of those, I'll just stop trying. What's the point? I'll never be pretty, I'll never be skinny, and I'll never be perfect. I'm disappointed in myself for ever thinking I could. I'm so disappointed because I thought ana was the answer. No it fucking wasn't. I'm done. I'm done trying. I give up. I give being obsessed with calories, I give up starving, I give up purging, I give up all of that ED shit. I'm fucking done man. I'm so tired of trying. I've tried so hard but never succeeded. I'm done. Fuck anorexia, fuck bulimia, fuck binge eating, fuck restrictive eating. Fuck it. I'm done. I can't keep living like this. I'm sorry to anyone who followed this blog for the ED stuff. I hope you can find your way in life. But as for me, I'm done. I choose recovery. This is Cam. Not 'kc4l-cam'. I'm done with that kcal shit. Fuck it. I'm out man. This is my last post ever, goodbye ED Tumblr. Goodbye.

Hey Kana! I've been a fan of your writings since the past year and I just wanted to say I love them and the way you reply to your asks ❤️ I just wanted to ask a question. How do you deal with the hate comments? Like doesn't it hurt when someone questions your writings? I'm kinda a baby when it comes to tumblr and I just received my first hate comment and it felt really bad. I'm really sorry if I'm bothering you. I just felt like you're someone I should consult about this.

Hello, darling! Thank you so much for sending me a message and you're not bothering me at all! I'm happy that you reached out to me! I don't think I'm the best person to seek advice from but I'll try my best to help! It gets a bit long under the cut, I'm sorry 😭

I have received a few hate comments in the past when I just started writing. Some of them were pretty traumatizing ngl and I had to take like a year break because of it 🥲 so I know how you feel and how upsetting it is. I'm so sorry that this happened to you, sweetheart 😭I'm sending you the biggest hug right now. Nobody in the world deserves a hate comment, especially when you're a writer/artist who creates stuff for free.

I just checked your blog to see the hate comment you were referring to (I hope you don't mind 😭) and I saw that some anon was mad because you wrote a smutty fic involving a character that's still a minor in canonverse.

Now, honey, I'm 10000000% on your side because a) it's your fic, your work, your blog, as long as you've put up some warnings, you can write whatever the hell you want. b) you've aged them up in your fics but even if you didn't age them up in your fics, that still doesn't make it okay for these people to be rude and attack you for it cause they're FICTIONAL. These characters are not real people with real life problems, they're literally just a bunch of drawings. That anon is spending their energy defending lines on paper and hurting a real person in the process.

Tbh I feel like this happens pretty often no matter what fandom you're in and I find it super weird that some people are actually upset about this. It's fiction! It's not real! And it's not like you support the stuff that's happening in the story! Like if you write about character A killing someone, it doesn't make you a murderer. It doesn't mean you support the act. If you write about incest, it doesn't mean you want to sleep with your dad or your brother. It's simply just for the plot, to make the story interesting. To share your ideas and be creative about it. And, the most important thing is, you're not forcing these people to read your fics, are you? They decided to read them on their own. And if you already wrote the warnings and they CHOSE to ignore them, that's their fault. It's like you see a bowl of hot peppers and you know they're spicy as hell but you choose to eat them anyway and when your tongue is on fire, you get angry "WHY IS THIS THING SO SPICY" like what????

A message for that anon: When you read stuff you don't like (stuff that someone wrote for FREE, stuff that someone spent hours or days creating it), the easiest thing you can do is just close the tab. Literally it takes zero energy to do it. Don't attack these writers with hate comments. Don't hurt their feelings. You don't know how hard they've worked on the story, their struggles in real life, or how insecure they are about their writing. One bad comment and they might stop writing forever, even when it's something that brought them comfort before. There are millions of other fics out there that you can read. Just scroll away and move on.

Yes. But in terms of doing it in a real life, I'd prefer it to be more playful than serious.

[illgiveyouahint]

the way you talk about LGBT/racial representation is so weird and... woobifying? infantilising? like you put on a baby voice to go "awwww, good for youuuuu"

Hello anon,

excuse me for being happy when i find a piece of good news.

Excuse me for not talking about how just a little over month ago two of our own have been brutally murdered right in front of the queer club. That the community is still shaken from that. Excuse me for not talking about how my friends have to undergo invasive inhumane operations just to change a letter on their ID. How they're being misdiagnosed and hospitalised for simply trying to live. Excuse me for not talking about my friends who fled their war-torn countries to czechia only to be met with racism and islamophobia. Excuse me for not talking about my friends who have been raped beaten, who had suicide attempts, who are being misgendered on every corner, who are hiding their gender identity because they know their parent would kill them. Excuse me for not talking about how we still don't have hate crime protection based on gender, sexual orientation or disability. Excuse me that I don't talk about how racial slurs are so common here that people don't even consider them slurs yet. Actually no i do talk about these things here from time to time. And if you've followed me for a while you'd know that. However I've long since learned to not use tumblr for my activism (i choose to focus on offline activism) or get into political talks on the internet. The world is a miserable place. Truly truly miserable place. And internet is huge part of it. And i honestly don't want to go back to 2016 tumblr where purity culture was at it's highest and everyone was spewing hatred over one thing or another. I chose to make tumblr my happy place. I chose to focus on things i like, on good news, on celebrating things that are worth celebrating.

Also this is my blog and I'll choose to talk how i want? You can just not follow me. That's your right. Like idk this ask just seem so rude and honestly seems like you know very little of what i post or where i come from or what i do. What did you think you'll achieve with this ask? Like what was the purpose of writing this and sending it?

And like if you don't like it don't be here???

Hello I’m just starting get into Italian Folk Magic, do you have any advice or how do I go about finding my Saint Patron? I know they choose me but how do I know for certain?

Sorry this has taken so long to get done! There's a lot of good resources out there and I'll add my own advice at the end to give you my personal advice.

First, there's a lot of online resources like Mary-Grace Fahrun's YouTube channel found here, though I will note not many of her videos are specifically about practicing Italian folk magic but she had been doing a few before taking her break. I also want to say to watch/read critically. I definitely don't agree with her on everything, but she is a good resource and was a huge part of the beginning of my journey.

There's also her blog and website she's ran for years, found here.

TikTok user SundaySagittarius has an Italian folk magic discord server filled with resources! It's been incredibly helpful, though I've been too nervous to do much more than lurk. Her linktree with the link to the discord is here!

I also suggest following other people who practice folk magic on here, even if it's not Italian folk magic, we generally always have some of the same staples, like venerating saints and the Blessed Virgin Mary and much of our practice revolving around food. My personal favorite for this is @toverijenspokerij but you should look around and see who you really connect with, too! If you're more interested in Benedicaria there's a few Tumblr users I know of, though it is incredibly important to find a teacher (usually a relative but you might get lucky in church) @grotto-of-benedicaria and @aspiringbenedetto

Saint Anthony's Tongue is a podcast I've been living for lately that talks about folk magic in specific, though he himself practices Italian folk magic found here.

Chaotic Witch Aunt also practices Italian folk magic. They tend to get a lot of hate but I haven't found many issues with them, personally. They recently said they're going to make more videos about Italian folk magic specifically and their YouTube channel can be found here.

As for books, I'm not going to have many suggestions because I don't have many myself yet but I'll share my personal experiences and the books that look best especially for someone starting out.

Mary-Grace Fahrun has a book called Italian Folk Magic: Rue's Kitchen Witchery, and I can't recommend it enough. It's helped me to form a basic practice and helped me to become more comfortable with experimenting. Again read critically, she in the beginning compares practicing folk magic to learning Japanese because you like anime a lot and while this isn't exactly a closed practice, it's kinda like most cultures have their own form of folk magic, why do you want to practice one where you work with someone else's ancestors? I don't think there's any other bad takes in it besides that one bit, but it's good to read without expecting an author to be 100% good or bad.

Author Agostino Taumaturgo wrote The Things We Do: Ways of the Holy Benedetta and this is a good book. Again, read critically. There are some problematic things, like his constant referencing of Vito Quattrocchi who is an incredibly problematic person as a whole, there's other issues like saying some people incorporate other things into folk magic, like Mary-Grace Fahrun also involves neopagan elements but another person includes Hoodoo I believe it says. You can add in other elements, but it is incredibly important to know that what you're using isn't disrespectful to other people. However, this book is well sourced and you can move past the Vito Quattrocchi bits. It helped me a lot to evolve my practice, so I do still recommend it.

Judika Illes has written an encyclopedia of mystics, saints, and sages. I don't have this book but it's been highly recommended for saint work. This was going to be what I bought instead of The Things We Do, but my ancestors were trying to push me more towards benedicaria. This book could help a lot in deepening your relationship with any saints you may wish to work with, as well as give you ideas for offerings. It's not needed, but it would be a good resource, in my opinion.

Now that I've shared all the resources I can think of, here are my personal tips.

Document everything! I have two Italian folk magic journals. One is for any magic in my waking life, and the other is a dream journal whenever the saints, gods, Mary, or my ancestors have messages for me. You can do this online, record your voice instead, or anything else that helps you to best document everything you do and learn. I also have a binder for all the recipes I use in my practice.

Ask your family about past generations, see what they can tell you. If you can't do this, create a space in whatever way you can for your ancestors. The most basic way is to leave a glass of water and white candle for them.

Experiment, try new things out and see what happens.

Cook! Experiment with cooking. My first idea of kitchen magic was cooking a pizza to attract money, it didn't work, but other recipes had.

Learn the language. Start small, but I do think it's incredibly important to learn the language to some extent. This is the language your ancestors spoke and they'll appreciate you putting in the effort, plus more resources will be available the more you understand the native language.

Learn some basic prayers like Hail Mary, Glory Be, and Our Father. Be open to finding your Madonna, whether if this is Mary or a goddess.

Read anything you can about the areas of Italy your family has come from. Meditate on the areas and with your ancestors, pray for more knowledge to them. The more you open yourself up the more likely you are to find the information you want or need.

As for finding your patron saint, this was a difficult one for me. The most common way is the saint you're named after, a saint whose feast day is your birthday, or the patron saint of your career. None of these worked for me, but I realized for me it was all about the saint who was most commonly in my life, which for me was Saint Michael Archangel. Just pay attention to little things that happen throughout your daily life.

S'a benedica!

A redesign of Tumblr mobile

(Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with Tumblr in any way. Any opinions I express in this post are my own. I’m just somebody who has been on Tumblr for many years and wanted to try my hand at redesigning it. I recognize that there may be potential flaws in the following post, and these faults are 100% my own and no one else’s. In an ideal world i’d have access to insider metrics, but in any case this isn’t meant to be collectively exhaustive in any way.)

Hello there! I picked up this redesign project in January and i’ve decided to publish this now, since I wasn’t sure how long it’d take me to do a full write up. I’ve talked to around 100 people over the course of these 2 months and i’ve ran multiple rounds of tests, and I felt bad about leaving everyone hanging. So, here are the results with brief explanations for now! I intend to type out the full process and design rationale at a later date. If you received a message about this within the last 2 months and answered me, thank you so much! 

Alright, let’s get started. At the time of writing, Tumblr for iOS is currently on version 19.0. (Warning: this is a long post, there are badly compressed big gifs.)

Adding Tags

During interviews and in surveys (n=83, python and excel really came in clutch when sorting through the data haha), people often told me they avoided reblogging on mobile due to the large hassle of typing every tag out, opting to save them to drafts instead and add tags later. In terms of data, given that people hit reblog (82% of all users surveyed), 84% of these people also liked to add tags, so it was clear that facilitating the tagging system would be important. To help solve this, I designed a method for people to quickly add tags to post topics they often reblogged. As well as being accessible from pressing the tagging area on the posting screen, this can be accessed from the hold menu, to speed up the interaction even more. 

Another issue that commonly cropped up was the multitude of possible ways to tag a trigger warning. If somebody missed out a tagging method for a TW, they still ran the risk of seeing it on their dashboard. I added a toggle for tagging something as a trigger warning, which would suggest what others commonly added (and you can type your own). This saves people from having to tag “tw:xyz” “tw: xyz” “tw xyz” “cw xyz” etc. (you get the point!) and makes sure that “xyz” is unambiguously marked as a trigger warning. (Can internet strangers be trusted to tag sensitive content properly? Quick study here)

(Reblogging with the hold menu on the left. Posting on the right. If Tumblr displays them top to bottom instead of side by side (I'll let it slide, I know they're reworking the web post editor right now), the top post=left. the bottom post=right. If you’re viewing this on my blog page, please click on the gifs!)

A bonus: A ‘read more’ button has been added back to mobile. Scrolling through long posts gets tedious sometimes, and people like to talk about more personal thoughts under read mores, so i’ve made it easier to access the feature.

Liking Posts

89% percent of users reported that they liked to hold on to posts for future retrieval. With this in mind, I added in a feature to categorize likes, making searching through your likes for future retrieval easier. The ability to like quickly without sorting is retained, added to a hold menu like a quick reblog. After liking, users are also prompted to reblog (PSA: reblogging helps spread OC around! please reblog OC you like more!)

(Liking on tap on the left. Quick liking with the hold menu on the right.)

Your likes can be found and sorted under your blog. 

Recommended For You

Tumblr is fundamentally about exploring and sharing content about topics you love, so I tried to rearrange the navigation to make it easier for users to look at new content about the things they like. The tabs are now rearranged so that new content is easier to find from the homescreen. To ensure relevance, followed tags are now toggles, so the user can pick and choose exactly what they want to see in the recommended tab if they want to. A radar post has also been placed in this tab to increase exposure to featured content creators. (Does being on the radar help out OC posters? Quick study here)

Exploring, and search results

Now that stuff recommended for you has been moved next to the dashboard, the explore page now defaults to trending posts. The top/recent page for tags you followed are now located in the search bar menu. Upon clicking on a search term, you can sort through recent/top posts and post types separately. For example, if you felt like looking at some new fanart that day, all you would have to do is sort by recent photo posts instead of having to sift through every recent post, making it easier for new OC to be discovered.

Hello! Sometimes I see you post stuff from IF blogs and I've recently started playing some IF games, which I've enjoyed so far. Do you have any IF stories you'd recommend in particular? I'm not attached to any particular genre and I don't need romance or a self-insert main character, (though I'm not opposed to either). Though, it's a definite plus if it's LGBTQ+ inclusive! I'm not really sure what the "cornerstones" are of IF so I'll take any and all recommendations haha

Oh god, I play so many IFs. So many. And it’s not even close to all of them, but I’m trying!!

Tbh IFs without romance seems to be very rare, I think because when I think IF I think Choice of Games, and those pretty much always have romance in them. At least, the most well known ones do. But a well done one without romance would be nice too!

Okay, this is a list of my favourites! They’re all LGBT+ inclusive, and most have gender selectable love interests, or at least ones that change gender depending on the gender and sexuality combination you pick. In no particular order, of course.  Behind a cut because I’m gonna give them each a mini review. Because I haven’t done that yet.

(There are so many.)

Mind Blind: I absolutely love our big brother Nick, I love how witty and sharp so much of the dialogue is, I love how the MC clearly has a rather large handicap, but is still such an important person to so many people and not looked down on in the slightest. And when they are, we all know it’s because that person is a jerk! They’re not defined by what they aren’t, but what they are, and that’s a great message.

Shepherds of Haven: Part of why I love this one so much is I just love fantasy settings and this one just pulls it off so well. The cast is full of amazing characters, and I gotta say I die inside pretty regularly for not being able to afford the patreon content, lol. The author puts so much amazing stuff on there, and gives us so much great content in the game and through answers on tumblr, and you can tell this whole thing is just the best thing ever to them, and that makes it the best ever for us readers too!

The Wayhaven Chronicles: I’d be shot if I didn’t mention this one, the series that literally killed dashingdon when the book 3 demo dropped!! Again, another author that cares a lot and does their best to do right by their fans. We’ve been given drip after drip of these amazing characters backstories, and I just cannot wait for more! It’s definitely very romance centered, but the overall plotlines are also very good, and I have to say that no matter who I romance, I just feel like the group as a whole is a family. And that’s wonderful.

Speaker: I really like the lore. I really like the lore. I can’t wait until we get more of the overall plotline. Mostly I want my Speaker to get in deep trouble so Seb, Li and Seer (best sister ever) go off and beat the shit out of whatever is causing it. This probably says something about me, but what can I say, I thrive on angst and inflicting near death injuries on my OCs. Sometimes I even kill them, although all of this is offtopic. Or is it? I guess we’ll find out, although I doubt we’ll actually be able to kill off Speaker. And yes, I am definitely playing the Seb & Li poly route. I love them both so much. 

Wilhelmina: I love vampires, ok? Ok? And this one is based off Dracula!! The OG!! And you can choose Drac’s gender!! Shit, sign me up forever!! Yeah, she might be literally killing my bff, torturing my fiancé and low key fucking with my mind, but vampires are hot!! Let me live! Or not. But yeah, this is a really well done retelling of the Dracula novel and I like how well it works as an IF. Did I mention I like vampires?? Especially when they get all monstery?? (This one has an MC with a set gender, as it’s based on an already existing literary figure. Mina can have a same sex relationship with dracula, if you make drac a female, or with Lucy, a female love interest.)

More Things in Heaven and Earth: Hi Nell!! First off, I gotta uncover a deep shame of mine. My family literally has a Shakespeare heirloom collection. As in, my greatgrandfather passed down through the family a collection of Shakespeare that was published in 1911. In ye olde englishe. I tried to read it when I was like 10 and was like what language is this?? What the fuck? What the fuck??? And ended up reading As You Like It, a bit of Romeo and Juliet, and a little of Hamlet. Didn’t touch the rest of it. I only got into the other stories through trashy ya reimaginings. That said, this retelling of Hamlet inspired me to go read the whole of the original and now I have a lot of fears for these characters that I’m so much more attached to, oh god I hope my Ophelia has a happy ending. I hope Hamlet himself has a happy ending. The dialogue is so well done, everyone is engaging, and yeah it made me finish an old af book when nothing else did. (This one also has an MC with a set gender, female, for the same reason. However, there are two gender variable love interests, so you can very much play a bi or gay Ophelia if you so choose.)

Guenevere: I love King Arthur. All the myths. I have so many books based on the King Arthur mythos, oh dear god. I love pretty much every version of it. All the movie and tv shows too! I just can’t get enough of those knights. I could go on for paragraphs about how courtly love worked and how all the different social castes were, but I’ll try not to. This series lets you customize Guen as a character to an amazing degree, considering that she’s also based on an actual literary figure like the other two I mentioned above. It really feels like she becomes your own character, and yet she still exists within this world very very well. I worry quite a bit that the author might have bit off more than they can chew with the current book they’re working on, what I’ve seen of it looks absolutely massive in scale. What is out so far is a wonderful read though, full of drama and laughter and lots of chances to make the story your own.

Bastard of Camelot: Yep! Another King Arthur series! Sue me! This one lets you set Mordred’s gender though, so it’s more inclusive in that way. It is very interesting to play as one of the “bad guys” of the King Arthur mythos. You can play them as straight up evil, as good, or you know, a bit of column a and a bit of column b. Or they can just be a rude little shit. It’s got dragons too! You get a dragon pet! Dragons are cool. It can be a bit tough to play sometimes, since a lot of people dislike Mordred quite a lot because of prejudices. Hopefully this will change a bit later in the series if you’ve been a fairly good person up to that point. Gotta say though, as a warning, that Mordred is a product of incest. It’s not glossed over, and it does cause a lot of problems for them in the story.

God of the Red Mountain: I just love that this inspired me to read more chinese mythology tbh. There is just so much here! And it’s just such a good read. I wish I was better at describing things. The MC being a spirit that you can define, the whole setting, most of the love interests also being spirits, the massive amount of history and culture and lore, how it all fits together. It is such a well done story. I really wish it got more attention than it does. I still miss Big Sister. I still can’t wait to find out more about the foxes, and how we can heal our MC.

The Nameless: Another one that lets you play as something otherworldly. I love the lore behind this one, and I love all of the cast I’ve met. I kind of like that our MC isn’t loved right off the bat, that we’ll have to win over all of our love interests and even the other npcs. I’m up for the challenge! Everything I’ve read on the tumblr for these characters just makes me love them all more tbh. I love how much they’ve written for all of them! Most of all though, I love Oisein. All the art of them is just *chef kiss* and their personality is magical.

A Mage Reborn: This is a really recent one but!! Wow, it’s really well done! That cliffhanger!! Oof!! Not many books literally start with killing your MC off! That takes guts! I told the author this already, but I love the way they formatted this, the way it starts with the end, so to speak, and then fills it all out. It just made everything feel so poignant, how MC is literally looking back at all these moments in time in the last minutes they have before they die. Shit. That’s powerful. And there’s gonna be more??? Can’t wait for that angst. Give me that drama. Of course I picked the one who had me killed, that’s just how I am!

These are all just the COG type games, there are a few twine games with graphics I’d throw on here, but the list is long enough as it is and they feel like they’re in a different category to me. Maybe it’s just me?

HELLO ! i am so excited to announce this blog has reached 500 followers ! ٩(♡ε♡)۶ to keep it short, i never, ever expected to reach even 50 followers, so to be here with all of you has been such a joy and i'm beyond flattered you have all stuck around with me ! i'll get a little mushier in the cut below, but i just want to let you all know that:

I'LL BE TAKING REQUESTS -- just five, just for now !

✿ can we try and take the high road? (though we don't know where it ends) — megumi x reader

✿ making everybody jealous when they step into my house — kirishima x reader

✿ you feel like home (you're like a dream come true) — bakugou x reader

i've yet to release an actual fully chaptered fic because deadlines and expectations make me nervous -- but i want to give back, so i will do my best with the time i have and the options you choose ♡(｡- ω -) they'll be in drabble form, 3-5k words, and i'll write for just about anyone from JJK, BNHA, and AOT ! (anon that asked me to write something for maki: i have not forgotten you and will be doing that, just because i haven't stopped thinking about it aksdhfah)

just send me a message with your request and i'll pick the five most popular ones ! i'll try to get them out on a consistent basis, though i do have two big things coming up. i'll be posting links to all five things here, in this post, if you want to be able to find them !

now for the (*˘︶˘*).｡.:*♡:

before i started posting on ao3, and then eventually here, i had taken a very long break from writing -- i had quit, honestly, and it was so stressful that i didn't want to do it any longer. i've been in critique based writing groups for years now, writing original fiction, and it just became week after week of getting torn to shreds. i've mentioned it very briefly, but i felt like everything everyone was telling me only meant that i had zero talent as a writer and had no idea what i was doing. i abandoned those groups, an entire novel i had written and planned to publish, and would nearly cry at the thought of trying to write again.

whenever i plan or plot something out, i tend to do it as i'm laying in bed at night and preparing to sleep, and i began to have literally so many fanfiction ideas that i had to get them out of my head -- there simply was no room left LOL and you take me the way i am is one of the first things i wrote and i decided to post it because -- fuck it. i've written on FFN, on wattpad, on mibba, on QUIZILLA FROM BACK IN THE DAY, so getting 10 views and 1 comment is entirely what i expected, if i was going to get lucky.

and i got very, very lucky ( •ॢ◡-ॢ)-♡

i've been on tumblr for a long time -- half my life at this point -- and i have followed blogs that are in the very same position i am in now: with lovely people in the ask box, sending sweet messages, giving compliments i still don't know how to accept, and it's all very surreal to me. this probably is coming off so cheesy and perhaps unnecessary, but i have seen this scene from afar and never, not once, in my life expected to have what i have. i'll always be thankful for it.

getting any nice words, any at all, is such a contrast to what i've heard for years about my own writing, and falling back in love with writing fanfiction has genuinely given me the passion that i lost. i love to write, i'm happy to do it and share it with the world, even more pleased that it's enjoyed ! so once again, for all 500 of you lovely dears:

[ftm-radio]

hey. i just wanted to say i like your blog and i feel weird about being transmasc. not having a name picked out makes me feel isolated from myself? i feel weird and alone. being closeted feels alone.

hello! 🖤

I talk a lot (like, so much) when I'm typing, so I'm putting my response under a cut. hope it's not too much of a bother. ✌🏻

maybe I should try and limit my word count for these.........

I'm really sorry you feel this way. I understand how weird it can feel, even after a year and a half of knowing & accepting my own transness. sometimes I think about it or suddenly remember, and it catches me off guard. it's different, and when you go years and years having one idea about yourself, realizing that that idea isn't quite right is definitely a weird feeling.

now, it feels weird, because of the world we grew up in where you're assumed cis and never really told that there are other possibilities, but being trans masc isn't weird in and of itself. it's just different. and because it's different, it takes some getting used to. I don't know how long you've known, but I think it's safe to say that with time, the weirdness you feel will pass.

I wish I could do more to help your loneliness, but I can at least tell you this: you're not alone, not really. you're not the only trans masc out in this big ol' world. you found my blog, you found me. if you have your own blog here, you'll find plenty more of us. for now we might just be voices in the distance, but we're here, we're real, and you'll keep meeting more and more of us, and some will be a lot closer to home. I hope that can be some small comfort for you.

as far as names go, this is something I've said here a few times: choosing or finding your name doesn't have to be a big, scary boss battle on the quest to find your identity. it's okay to tell yourself not to worry about it quite so much.

it sounds like your name is important to you, and I'm not trying to change your mind on that or snatch that away from you. I just also want you to know that not knowing your name doesn't mean you don't know yourself. you're you no matter what, and your name (or names! have as many as you want!) can just be way to describe yourself. not having the right name only means you're missing the little tag that conveniently labels the package of everything that's you—your likes and dislikes, your history, your future, your dreams, your plans, everything. you still have all of that, name or not.

you might be feeling lost without a name, might be feeling the pressure of gotta get the right one, but it's okay. you're okay.

and being closeted is a lonely feeling, you're not wrong about that. I told some people almost as soon as I figured it out—a few friends and my mom—but i was closeted to my dad and all my siblings for about four months, along with pretty much everyone in my college classes for even longer than that. and it definitely really kinda sucked at times. (actually I'm closeted to some of my more distant relatives even now, a year and a half later, and it's Not Great at times...)

anyway, what I'm saying is that being in the closet is gonna keep being lonely for a bit. it's unfortunate but inevitable when you can't be your whole self with the people around you. but you won't be in there all the time forever. when you're ready, when you're safe, when you want to, you can come out. and until then, you can be yourself here, whether it's in my inbox or on tumblr/the internet in general. :)

apologies if this is jumpy and incoherent, I've started and stopped typing numerous times, and I'm afraid to go back and try to clarify everything since I'll probably triple the word count lmao. if you wanna send more asks for clarification or just to say hey, feel free. I hope my rambles can be helpful to you. 😊🖤

Hello darling Rose ✨💛 I'm still taking a break from social media, but slowly (very slowly) returning to Tumblr but only for the sake of your blog and your posts 🥺💗 out of all the social media platforms I'm on, tumblr has been the one that I tend to search up triggering content the most, so I'll be cautious on my way back here ✨ things are looking up a little, it seems! at least at this very moment ✨ how are things with you, dear? did taking a break help you/make you feel better? I hope things are fine with you and your F/Os <33 I've been feeling quite disconnected from Casanova lately :/ but one thing that's helped has been ice cream! I know it sounds silly but I've spent some days this summer selling ice cream and there's this one flavour that I think Casanova would adore and that reminds me of him <3 it's "mango & melon" and it's this bright yellow colour and actually tastes really good! Casanova's all about fruit etc. and I think he'd like it! 🥺💛 Sending hugs <333 - Magda xx

Hello, Magda!💛🌻

It seems as if it has been a long while since we last spoke. I hope that your break from social media is going well! You definitely deserve a break, darling, I am happy you decided to look after yourself; self-care should always be priority number one.

This really means a whole lot to me, dear. I am honored that you like my blog so much🥺 To tell you the truth, I've been thinking of leaving this blog inactive. It's been quite draining to keep it active, especially since I've been choosing to keep my writing private. I do not wish to post my writing at this time and i have no future plans to post any more anytime soon, unfortunately. Whenever I feel like I have to do my hobbies, I intentionally won't do them. Writing seems almost a requirement now, which is no one's fault, I just need to have more time for it personally so that I have a few things for myself.

I hope that you don't have to see any triggering content, darling. Have you tried blacklisting certain tags so that they will not show up on your dash without warning you first? Tumblr can be a cesspool of negative information and I completely empathize with you, darling. I hope that you return with caution so that you do not have to see anything which might upset you.

I am so so happy to hear you're feeling a bit better! That is amazing news, darling!! I've been wondering how you've been💛💛 Thank you so very much for updating me - I was worried about you.

Taking a break really did help a lot, thank you, darling. I still am not certain what I will do with this blog. I will perhaps use it as a sort of 'online scrapbook' of things about my F/Os; those posts are the only ones I genuinely enjoy making and I am getting beyond the point of caring if those posts are interacted with or not. It makes me happy to talk about my F/Os and that's that, so it does not matter to me - I just want to be happy. Though there are several of my F/Os I specifically do not mention here.

I've been reading quite a bit as well, which has been lots of fun.

Oh, darling, I am so very sorry you've been feeling disconnected from Casanova!! I recently made a list of creative ways to reconnect with F/Os; I'll link it here in case you would like to try any of these things that might help the two of you feel closer with one another. Oh my goodness, that ice cream sounds lovely! I think that would really suit Casanova, from what I know of him. If he really likes fruit, I think he would be happy to try that ice cream with you💛 he seems like he would love sweets!

I really hope that the two of you start to feel more close, darling. You don't deserve to be apart for even a minute!! Sending you lots and lots of love and support, dear💛💛

[aishalee]

This introduction thingy was loosely inspiried by @cutecinnamonrolls intro.

♡Introduction♡

Warning:Angsty shit

Aight so I started this blog thingy to just be a place for me to express my emotions ig, its hard to explain. But I'm basically just looking for a place to vent about my frustrations and worries without having to worry about people actually knowing me irl.

The more important parts are colored . Oh and there are also some things that are gonna be confusing so I'll have clarifications on the bottom. To indicate that I'll explain further on that thing there will be small numbers m on the side of them.

So here we go;

My name's Aisha,

I go by the pronouns She/Her.⁴

I am a minor¹,

And an a aquarius.

I am bisexual.(Edited)

I like anime.

And I hate spicy food.

I am also Agnostic(?)²

I'm open to meeting new people so just message me ig or however that works here in tumblr.

You can expect to see some pretty depressing and sad shit on my blog so if you don't like that just avoid my page.

I'll just have a warning thingy if things are getting a bit too emotional.

Also expect really bad punctuation and grammar bcz I have a hard time typing and explaining my feelings,

And also bcz english isn't my first language.

Why did I choose to do this you ask?

I don't know really...

I just I just feel like everything is gonna burst if I don't do or say anything.

I'm sick and tired of keeping it together and putting up a character infront of my parents.

I can't even tell my friends about it because I don't have any³

And for the things that I share on here that are really deep and sad and shit, I'll delete in a day or 2.

I'm probably a dumbass for choosing to vent my frustrations out on the internet but then again if i don't I'm probably gonna relapse onto my depressed state again

And I'm desperately trying to get better and as best as I can without the help of other people.

♡Clarifications♡

1. I'm choosing not to say my age bcz I just don't want to. Thats it really

2. I have a question mark on the end bcz my whole family's christain and I'm not. So when I'm with my family I have to pretend to enjoy going to church and 'praising the word of god'. With that being said I hope to not see any 'praise the lord allmighty', 'god bless you' or 'Love thy neighbor' shit.

3. I'm not including my relatives bcz again, they are christians and if they tell my parents about it they are most probably gonna send me to converison therapy.

4. Aight so this used to be only she/her but that changed cuz now I'm genderfluid lol. 1 year later Edit: And it has changed back to she/her I wont elaborate, just ask ya'll to respect it.

Anyways thats it basically. I'm feeling really tired rn so this was kinda shorter than I hoped it would be. I'm probably gonna change it tomorrow(key word probably), anyways good night and,

See yall later bitćhes

Edit:Omfg hi this is me like 4 or 5 months later I don't know what I was thinking when I did this but anyways a few things have changed since I wrote this so I edited it a little.

1 year later edit: uhmm hi hello. It has been a year.. I'm now year older and shit has changed. Like my mentality and sexuality. So il probs update it. Oh and a little life thingy I realized was that shit happens and that shit changes. I am not the same person I was a year ago. But that dosent mean I'm not myself and stuff. Like I'm still agnostic, still part of the lgbtq(I'll bet not as a pan person cuz its really hard to explain when they ask so I just settled on saying I was bi to make it easier on myself) still depressed(though not as much, I've learned how to deal with my mental problems and shit) I still hate spicy food. And the list goes on. But things have still changed, like how I'm not genderfluid anymore(I've settled on being identifying as a girl cuz its just all that easier for me, personally. My pronouns are just she/her again, now. Just saves me less stress and pain over myself. But who knows, things might change again for me) I have people I can call friends now(Even if they're just one) and little things like my hairs grown long again, my acne has gotten better and the weight I've been loosing. Anyways, I'll see you on the flip side. Byebye.
