why do allos insist on viewing relationships in the most boring ways imaginable

#aromantic #aro #ace #asexual #aroace #aspec #boring AND one dimensional #yes i know this doesn’t apply to all of y’all.. chill 😭 #this is about the allo insistence of categorising relationships and behaviours into a platonic/romantic/sexual binary without any room for a #nuanced understanding of intimacy and picking what that means for you depending on ur own relationships. im so tired of it lol #like some of y’all will look at a complicated relationship that defies clear labels and immediately try to force it into a box without #hesitation. and it concerns me #literally begging u to open ur mind. you’ll be so free

#litten #this has the vibe of a lot of those cat memes. you know what i mean #apparently folks have been doing a lot of shiny hunting of this thing in sv #meanwhile i'm way too lazy to grind out the 12‚000 BP required to unlock all the starters in all the zones #so i just GTS'd the damn thangs to complete the pokédex #BBQs are so tedious……… take a picture of a pokémon swimming to fill up your screenshots!! make a TM you don't want!! catch yet another #tyrogue to fill up your boxes with garbage!! make a sandwich you don't want with your limited set of ingredients that will require you to g #all the way to mesagoza to buy more because that's the only place you know where to get sandwich ingredients because you never #interacted with the sandwich mechanic until you started shiny hunting!!! #maybe these are um. very personal complaints

Tianshan boyfriends being cute~

Simply love the non-verbal communication between those 2 ❤️

Also could we ask for the next Christmas special in July? 😭🙏 Sure it doesn't make sense, but look at them husbands~ I don't want to wait another 6 months

#have you ever witnessed a couple simply looking at each other and it's like a whole silent conversation? #and no one around them knows wtf is going on #Tianshan couple goals #remember when HT said he had nothing but 2 boxes of random stuff and he looked at Mo and there was sort of a long stare #so when Mo gave him his drink did it mean “what's mine is yours” ? #is it simply overinterpretation? 😭 #possibly #I like that theory though #because when they kissed HT also said “I'll give you anything you want” or something like that❤️ #19 days #he tian #mo guan shan #tianshan #old xian #one day #19days

You know, I feel like other trans people might get this, but it's honestly kind of refreshing when a cis person has, like, undeniable tboy/tgirl/whatever swag. It's like when you come across somebody who speaks the same language as you and you only find out when they start speaking it, too.

#trans #transgender #lgbt #lgbtq #ftm #mtf #nonbinary #all this to say that we are existing on a rock hurling through space #and this universe is going to collide into another and does it all truly matter in the end? #a lot of this is based on ideas we have about what constitutes certain people and i think it can be a fun observation #so long as you do not inherently ascribe certain traits as being indicative of who somebody Is #it can be amusing when you're SO confident that somebody is a certain way until you realize how Wrong you were #the amusement for me only comes because it's like... 'you tried your best to box somebody and you FAILED lmao' #and in a weird way it's kind of comforting because it reminds me that we all come into this world with bias that Will be challenged... #...so the best thing you can do is recognize those biases and then try to overcome them through great effort... #...so yes maybe i did think that cis dude had tboy swag but. that's not inherently his problem you know? #it probably just means he's confident in his manhood in a way that reminds me of the trans men* i know and love #i noticed that in him and it reminded me of my friends who are trans so i think 'oh! maybe that's why he's giving off those vibes!' #so while i won't treat him any differently before or after finding out i was wrong i'm still going to appreciate the fact that... #...he and i are literally just Vibing on the same planet and we both don't have time for petty arguing about manhood #i'll acknowledge what inspired those thoughts in me but that is Not his problem and that's good and beautiful actually #i don't always mind the tboy/tgirl swag meme just so long as you don't treat it like an Inherent Trans Experience Only Trans People Have #just recognize where those ideas are inspired from and it's fine <3 #sometimes you will be Wrong and that's actually fucking neutral <<3 #anyway rant over i just think this is /generally/ harmless and fun #like astrology. sometimes you just look up your star sign without ascribing your Entire Life to it <3 #i think what i lot of people mean by saying a cis person has tboy/tgirl swag is just that... #...that cis person has an understanding of themself that comes from deep introspection that isn't necessarily expected of cis folk... #...but it is often something trans people do as part of our exploration of gender... #how is this the FIRST POST to reach tag limit... ask me for more thoughts if you want lol!

A few turtley doods from my sketchbook.

Those last disaster twins were inspired by @tangledinink's Gemini Twins AU's because I think about them like, at least thrice a week. They live rentfree in my head. Running and giggling.

#lets!! not! forget! box turtles shells close off completely!! #mikey is so SMALL. this turtie tot.... i want to shove it inside my mouth and eat it like a Tortuguita TM (Arcor) #i'm sorry one of my favorite things on Earth is to project my childhood nonverbalness into Donnie #i also think pretty often about that time someone twitted projecting their menstrual cramps into Raph 'n the post got 1k+ likes and #nobody questioned it at all #i myself just thought it was so natural of Raph like sure that's canon 100% #he's just #so he/she if you know what i mean #mikey rottmnt #donnie rottmnt #leo rottmnt #raph rottmnt #tmnt fanart #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #turtle tots #traditional art #masterpiece

Are trans women real women?

As opposed to what. Fictional? A mannequin? Unreal in the sense that it's unreal how bomb she is?

(tags V relevant)

#Inventing boxes around people never works. There's no parameter for real or not real that doesn't allow for discrimination #If a woman says she is a woman then she is a woman. It is not my business to comment on how ''''real'''' it is #Based on what?? The hell kind of authority am I??? I'm some fuckin dude. #It does not matter to me what pronouns or what chromosomes or what presentation someone has #If you tell me you're a woman okay you're a woman. You know better than me. What kind of douchebag would I be to contest that #Short answer: trans women are as real women as any women. It doesn't change anything. #Are he/him women women? Are drag queens women? Are femboys women? I don't speak for them why don't you ask them to their face #By which I mean get a scope on their experience and opinion. And don't ask the person who LOUDLY DOESN'T LIKE FIRM LABELS. #Not an art

fandom and all its """kon resents clark""" this and """clark is mean to/mistrusts kon""" that. actually, kon canonically goes to clark to bitch about his rogues gallery:

"Superboy's told me all about this guy."

(adventures of superman #533)

can you imagine? he just calls up superman to talk shit about scavenger (and presumably others too!!). i just know he's lounging midair in the most ridiculous poses while slurping up a milkshake he made clark buy him and spouting ridiculous teen slang that clark has to make several mental notes to look up later. this is the mark of a truly beautiful family bond and i, for one, would like to see more of it.

#rimi's comic liveblogging #Let Kon Talk Shit Again 2k24 #when i complain about bendis destroying the kon & clark bond this is what i mean 😔 idek what's going on in current dc though i gave up tbh #but THIS. this is the good kush!!!! #iirc this is before kon knows clark's secret id but after he finds out i just know he shows up in the clois apartment like #UGH YOU GUYS. KING SHARK ATE MY HOT DOGS!!!!!!! he also tried to kill me and 5 other people but like BRO!! DUDE!!! #that was MY lunch you overgrown fish freak!!! hell-llooo? didn't you see the S- shield lunch box??? #or is your brain as smooth as your skin!!! huh???? #clark: actually sharks have quite rough-- #kon: no they're smooth. #clark: i. don't think that's true son. but alright #i just. clenches fist. i love the superfam a really normal amount #kon #clark

Funny how all it takes is a couple of conversations with a cis straight man about gender to make me go "yup I'm definitely not cis"

#listen I adore my stepfather ok but he's got a pretty traditional view of gender #he's very respectful of others and doesn't enforce it on anyone else #and I think it's not that toxic all things considered bc he sees 'manhood' as being primarily about being hard working and protecting other #but it's still very gender essentialist #and he sees a lot of things as 'man things' and 'woman things' #and talks about skills and roles that are 'men's' #and I'm just like well but I do a lot of those things. but I identify with a lot of the things you describe. #and he tries to go around it like 'ahh well but you have personal history with that' etc etc #we get along really well tho we don't fight or anything but it's interesting to me #it makes me realize just how much I'm outside of the binary in the eyes of cis people #and how much 'trying to be a man' or 'trying to be a woman' are things that hold no emotional meaning to me(personally) #I could not care less what makes me masculine or feminine or if either of those labels are revoked for some reason #taking on the label of woman or man feels like a burden to me bc it always comes with a set of expectations #I just wanna be me yk. I just want people to see me through the lens of 'this is a person' #'this is what this person likes. this is how this person behaves' #I just wanna turn off gender. can I do that? like just flip a switch and no one perceives me as anything anymore #in a perfect world maybe #sleep.txt #I honestly still don't fully understand how I feel about gender but. I know that I don't like being put into a box #the box is Evil.

Have a funny style study I did for school

#my art #I kinda lost my will to create for a while #for a while I mean like 2-3 months #I don’t know what I like anymore my brain stopped talking to me and it’s scary #I might stop drawing fanart for a while #and slowly drift away from the sunmoon fandom #don’t get me wrong I still love them #and I definitely want to create for them #it’s just i think I need to make something for myself and they’re in the way… #put them in a nice little box along with my other blorbos #I’m need to find my love for art back #so I can come back stronger and less mentally drained ✨

(TW: Bugs and Crawly Critters)

So I was just re-watching episode 6, and I got up to the scene where we’re introduced to my babygirl Helaena for the first time, and as I was watching I decided to pause and see what she actually had in her little insect box of horrors. I first looked to the left and saw the beetles organised from smallest to largest (adorable), and then as I looked to the right I realised she had a WHOLE ASS SCORPION IN THERE AS WELL!?!

LIKE!?!

HELAENA?!?

#oh she was absolutely committed to this hobby #and it’s funner to me because Alicent sat right beside Helaena as she was talking about her insects #which means Alicent KNOWS about what’s in the box and just indulges her anyway #helaena: hey mum look at this scorpion I found! #alicent (exasperated but fully committing): yes that’s wonderful darling. how many eyes do they have? #house of the dragon #hotd #alicent hightower #helaena targaryen #team green #my own

I wonder if Hob's ever been buried alive.

I don't know how his immortality works- do his wounds miraculously heal within minutes? Hours? Has he sometimes had to pretend to be injured, because no one heals from a stab wound to the gut over night?

Or does it take him just as long as any other person? Does he spend weeks bed-bound while recovering, slowly but surely knitting himself together? And if that's the case...has he been buried?

Has Hob woken up, weeks after being 'laid to rest', starving and in pain because fuck does his head and chest hurt and- why can't he move. Why is it so silent. Has Hob ever trailed his fingers, shaking from the effort, across wood grain 5 inches from his face? Has he, head pounding with pain and confusion, frantically mapped the limited space of his chamber because why are the walls so close to him why is he lying down why does-

Has Hob ever realised he was buried six feet underground.

Has he ever clawed at what he realises now is his coffin, hands scrabbling and nails catching? Pounded at the lid of it and screamed? Has Hob ever had to climb his way out of the ground

Anyway :)

#I was reading a fic that mentioned the air in Hob's dream being stuffy and hot and idk why but my brain was like #Oh a nightmare?? #Maybe bc I live in Australia and the heat is my no 1 nightmare but #My brain was like ooohh warm air STUFFY air must be contained somewhere what about a room no a BOX no a COFFIN #And then I thought of Hob having a nightmare about being buried alive #And then I thought....what if he has been #And now we're here besties #Forgive me comic people I don't know how his immortality is handled in the comics please let me have my fun #And by fun I mean putting my blorbos well being in a blender and wrecking that shit #the sandman #hob gadling #sandman #dreamling #Cw buried alive #cw claustrophobia #I mean he's def gonna be fucked up about that for a while
