#without even telling me the rules

[bogkeep]

the way the most recent pokemon games don't let you turn off the exp share or the affection mechanic bonuses is nothing short of maddening. i think they make great accessibility features If Only They Were Optional and the flavour text is cute, but i want to have a fun casual playthrough that's at least mildly challenging without having to make it a nuzlocke or something. i don't want to feed my starter bitter medicines to make her hate me :(

i've updated my rules. please give them a read, it's literally just the general rules i've updated and a new little bit under it. it will take you 2 minutes or less. i've read every rule of my mutuals and go to great lengths to not cross them.

also, there are a couple things i really need mutuals to understand - given you made the choice to either follow me first or follow back.

from here on out, telling me you forgot about me / to reply to me, or that you forgot about our thread or anything along those lines more than once will get you softblocked. people forget, it happens. i am never sat thinking "x hasn't replied to me yet" or with a clock counting your reply speed. i can take over a month at a time to reply to some of my closest rp partners, it is what it is. sometimes you don't have the energy, sometimes you outright forget. but if you do - please stop telling me.

i'm comfortable with being honest, it's all part of my recovery process. i have npd, as stated on my rules page. when you tell me you forgot about me / to reply to me, i don't think "oh hahaha silly memory what are u gonna do shrug." it agitates and disappoints me. "i forgot" translates to "i don't care enough about our stuff to remember, you / your muse don't matter to me, you're forgettable and i'm disinterested." even without npd, it's not cool. stop telling people you forgot about them, or need reminding about them. just get on with it when you do remember, or make the effort to remember / make notes etc. and if you don't care to, don't follow me, because i don't want to waste my time getting invested in our interactions if they don't even cross your mind. i keep notes of all my plots / dynamics because i also forget details.

i really don't care what your intention is, telling someone they're forgettable isn't cool or quirky. i don't care if you forget, just don't rub it in my face if you do. i go from not caring how long you take to respond to fixating on it, because i no longer think "oh life gets in the way, they're busy, they'll respond when they can it's not indicative of interest" but instead am wondering if you forgot again and whether i'm going to have to remind you after every single message i send. if you're so scattered you can't find a way of remembering, then we will clash.

on top of this, since it wasn't clear enough in my rules as it was: do not follow me if you follow / interact with another ghost. i'm not insecure of my portrayal - in fact ghost is one of the few muses i am 1000000% secure in. but i have no interest in being sloppy seconds because they will ship with you and i won't. i've lost countless potential rp partners to dupes of all kinds because they were less ic than me or were more open to shipping. i've had someone actively replace me with a dupe when i was on their exclusive list. every active ghost i currently know of is also pals with the individuals that have been relentlessly stalking me and those close to me since november last year, or are one of them. one of which has stolen ideas from me as well as defended someone who lifted my graphic style. it's because of these people that i can no longer associate with my own fandom - i rightfully do not want any of these people around providing direct access to my shit.

Very worried for the amount of younger people (minors/young adults) and honestly even older adults who have completely forgotten what privacy is and what is appropriate to say online.

Yeah if you need an entire board of doctors and advocates to tell the difference between two things, then the distinctions between said things are not "obvious". If they were, you'd be able to tell the difference on your own, regardless of your knowledge base, as that is sort of what "obvious" means :/

[belladonnafey]

y’all are just saying shit now huh

[ID: a tumblr reply that reads “Common addage that ND people absorb what is interesting to them, and NT people absorb only what they see as useful. But I've come to realise that many NT people don't see very many things as useful. “END ID]

[capaldiera]

man idgaf about what treville and richelieu have going on (mostly nothing) (they dont like each other but they work together a lot bc of their jobs.) (i guess treville holding onto a sense of honour whilst working with the cardinal is interesting but like that's not. thats not really those two having something interesting going on). lets talk about the king and the cardinal man.

Tumblr is always like social norms are evil and stupid and hurt people that doesn't fit in (which is extremely true and I say this all the time too)

But the moment someone do something here stupid everybody is like turn into hive mind and bully them.(not racism or bigoted stuff like terfs idk I am talking about just weird things)

Like people preach be yourself, current social norms are fucked up then mock you for not following Tumblr culture or whatever.

Partner asked me to clean up their old computer area today so they can get to some parts. They've been refusing to clean up this area for years and suddenly it's a priority. I'm very willing to do, even though I had other things I wanted to do today. However I did warn them that they don't get to get upset when I make executive decisions and throw things out (like the old broken chair and the fifty empty packages for things we don't even own anymore and the junk mail); if they wanted to keep that stuff, they needed to clean up for themselves. I'm about half way through the area, which is good because my allergies are going crazy.

[that-was-anticlimactic]

actually, no. you know what? i am so sick of this “marinette is just a friend” bs. okay. cool. adrien said she was just a friend a few times. whatever. it’s not that big of a deal and everyone in the mlb fandom like. hyperfixates on that??? idc if it’s a “just a joke” because it’s utterly ridiculous at this point. i have literally seen people go on heated rants about how stupid or clueless adrien was during the umbrella scene because he called mari just a friend. are you kidding me??? y’all are really going to take away that moment for him? he just made like his first ever friend in nino and when he called her a friend, he looked so excited because this boy has only ever had one friend before. of course he’s going to call mari just a friend because he just met her and the only time she’s actually spoken to him outside of the suit at this point is to yell at him like... y’all...

and this is not me hating on mari because i love her so so so much. i just hate how passionate and heated fans get about this. i mean... y’all... adrien didn’t even think mari liked him??? like, in puppeteer two, he is literally upset because he came to the conclusion that mari hates him. also, of course he’s not like in love with or crushing on her when she’s barely spoken actual sentences to him! again, not me hating on mari and her nerves because like i get it, it’s hard. and also this is like adrien’s first time interacting with people as peers, so 1. of course romance is not his main priority 2. he doesn’t understand social cues or situations very well At All which is made abundantly clear in the show 3. i don’t... i don’t think adrien knows what affection is??? i mean, he’s definitely learned some over the course of the show, but he’s used to a neglectful / abusive father, his stoic assistant, his bodyguard who doesn’t really talk like at all, chloé being chloé, and hoards of fans declaring that they’re in love with him, hanging all over him, acting like he’s a shiny thing rather than a person, etc... so like. how is adrien supposed to actually comprehend that mari likes him???

and okay no my last point: so so so sick of the double standard. i have seen countless people rant and rave and scream and shout about how stupid adrien is for not returning mari’s feelings or knowing he has a crush on her and then these same people will turn around and berate chat noir and say things like “gosh ladybug isn’t obligated to return his feelings:/” like... hELLO??? why is ladybug not obligated while adrien is??? it’s ridiculous and disgusting and i’m so so so tired of “just a friend” jokes on tumblr, in art, in fics, in youtube compilations... like... can’t we be normal about this? and i don’t mean normal as in “casually enjoy” i mean normal as in can we stop being so aggressive and harsh and hostile towards literal fourteen year olds my God they’re children they’re allowed to make mistakes and mess up and my God the way y’all talk about lila is disgusting, too like i hate her but i don’t want her tortured and killed??? and the way people characterize the classmates as physically and verbally assaulting mari because of lila??? like... my God they would never??? they would all honestly side with mari chameleon is a bad episode and is poorly written and everyone is out of character please use your critical thinking skills and understand that chat noir is not harassing ladybug anymore than mari may be harassing adrien (aka they are not harassing each other at all my God) and stop insulting and demonizing fourteen year olds so your otp can get together thanks

[unladielike]

( alright, after talking it over with @laplacemail​, i added this to my rules underneath the ‘Reasons I May Unfollow / Block’ section: )

If I notice you interact with two people I’m personally uncomfortable with, I may potentially unfollow or softblock as my reaction to seeing them on my dash is really that bad, but I won’t be mentioning who they are and what they have done unless you privately message me about it, because I don’t want to draw negative attention towards them.

idk how to explain this but it's been a whole year (as of last Thursday) since the last time i was forced to wear a skirt and i got casually giddy over the fact that what i wear is something i get to pick 97% of the time now.
