Is there a community of people who like to research clown history? If so how do I enter it?

As knowledgeable as I am with Warframe after god knows how many years playing it consistently I am genuinely. So bad at teaching players stuck at the midpoint progression wise. And not because I was carried out of it quickly or anything - I know for a fact I was trapped in the midpoint hell for a very long time due to lacking a carry but my memory of it is just utterly gone due to how long I've comparatively been at the endgame.

So whenever as a MR30 I'm asked for specific advice like what weapons and Warframes to prioritize and how to build stuff I'm just like uhhhh shit. Fuck. Hang on let me open up the goddamn Wiki so I can remember most things' MR levels let alone if you can even obtain specific mods at your point of progression.

I found socks with my favorite flowers on them (nasturtiums!), but they literally don't match anything I own, so making an outfit with them is difficult.. just all black with the bright shoes and a random stuffed animal for accents lol

Sorry if this has been asked before but have you ever considered posting your tumblr fics on ao3? I only ask because sometimes navigating tumblr can be awful, especially on mobile. No pressure though. I just really love your writing and want to read as much as possible.

hey thank you so much for asking! I currently do not have any plans to move all of my tumblr fics to ao3, but I assure you I’ve thought about it.

I view my tumblr writing as very different from my ao3 writing, which is why it feels like a big deal for me when I start a fic on ao3 that i fleshed out as an au or series of ficlets on tumblr. Putting it on ao3 means committing to the details, the story format, the moment in time of the plot I want to tell.

Take the regency au for example. That’s a series of ficlets on tumblr, but I would love to one day put a story up on ao3 for it. But if I put the ficlets up now in the same format I created the KUWSK ao3 fic (aka ficlets set in the same verse but not necessarily in chronological order), I would feel trapped by the format and I wouldn’t ever be able to post it in a traditional story format….if I one day figure out how I want that story to start. Do I delete the ao3 fic of the disconnected ficlets? Do I repost scenes and pretend they’re all new scenes? Do I just start posting the new chronological story at the end of that ao3 fic?

Tumblr fic posting feels more fluid to me because I’m just writing disconnected moments in an au and I always link them in the tag — and I have a master list of tumblr fics here — so if I get something wrong continuity wise it’s not that big of a deal, and I can jump around to whatever moment I want to tell at any time.

For me, it’s not just reposting a piece of writing from tumblr to ao3– it involves me thinking about what I want this story to look like (ie, the hunger games au on ao3 will be set in space; the playmaker au may involve a journalist obi-wan instead of a detective obi-wan) instead of what disjointed moment i feel like writing.

So it is something I promise I have thought of, and it’s something I’m not interested in at this time. If I were to ever delete my blog and orphan my fics, I’d make a concentrated effort to move some if not all of the writing here over to ao3 for people to save as they’d like, but that’s sort of the only scenario I think I would do that in

I hate how even in asexual communities, it's still so hard to find other sex repulsed aces. Like idk it feels like no matter where I am, I'm the one who has a problem and I hate it. I never asked to be like this but at the same time I don't want people to keep treating me like I'm just damaged and need to be fixed. Or like it's fine as long as I don't impose it on other people...

idk how to explain to people that I'm not just internally tolerating things, I'm actually in a lot of pain over it. I'm not just disgusted, I'm panicking and upset over the fact that I feel disgust sometimes toward people I like very much actually. Idk I just feel like it's never talked about and it's extremely upsetting.

And the worst part is, if I tell people, everyone has their own assumptions about what "made me this way" and tbh that is just not something I'm comfortable with. My only choices are to either be uncomfortable because I'm panicking and being excluded from a lot of things (usually conversations but sometimes other things too) or to be uncomfortable because I set a boundary and asked people to stop and now everyone is either mad at me or making assumptions about me that I quite honestly don't think I'm okay directly addressing.

I don't know. I just wish there was some non-judgmental recognition that this makes so many things really really hard for me I guess.

[trashbaget]

mentally ill side (is there a mentally well side) of tumblr—what advice/tips/thoughts of any kind on getting psychiatric help do you have??

[lilyliveredlittlerichboy]

okay this is gonna be Controversial or whatever and i don't really care but you have Got to stop acting like people using words in contexts you don't like. is the most important problem that we all need to focus a lot of energy on. This is vaguely in response to someone i saw going off at someone who's post they Entirely Agreed With but op said "delusional" in a not exactly positive context and THAT became the issue to focus on, rather than the actual subject at hand.

like please. can you stop. for a moment. take a deep breath. and remember that this is not the most important issue for disabled people in real life. nowhere near. nowhere near

we all have limited energy especially disabled people. and there's so many things you can do that will make disabled people's lives tangibly better, beyond just avoiding being upset by a string of letters. the words are not the problem. the words may be a symptom of underlying societal issues but please can we address the societal issues instead of yelling at people about words. you're just gonna make people defensive and then you've created a division and an enemy where there really needn't be one. when you could be spending your energy in so many other, more useful ways

here's a couple examples ok

disability benefits/welfare. lobby your government. get involved with activist groups. campaign for disabled people to get enough money to live on and then some. campaign to remove barriers to access to support disabled people are (/ should be) entitled to

social stigma around disability. this doesn't mean yell at people over words they use but it does mean this. tell people being disabled (/delusional/crazy etc) isn't a bad thing, campaign for mental illness and neurodivergence to be seen as disabling conditions, make people aware that the vast majority of us will become disabled permanently or temporarily at some point in our lives. destigmatise use of mobility aids and such. make support easily accessible and don't make disabled people have to ask and fight for support where it can be avoided. don't make disabled people prove their disability and don't make them have to get more sick in order to get help. etc.

there's so much more but this is like the most basic stuff n i might make a seperate post about this. point being. stop making it seem like words people use are the main issue When They're Really Not.

seriously. discourse about what words are okay to use in what context is a great way to stall progress and distract from the actual issues disabled people face, that threaten their lives and livelihoods. just look at what's happened with lgbtq activism - progress is reversed and erased while baby queers fight each other about slurs. its sickening

by arguing about language you're putting the cart before the horse. can we please make sure we don't have to fucking fight for our lives first. and THEN maybe we can tell people to stop using deluded in a negative way. but can we make sure disabled people can survive and thrive first. can that be the focus of our activism please. yelling about words is not real activism holy shit you guys.
