#I feel more and more like I belong here

[kiyyunkaiwan]

As a newcomer to tumblr antics, especially to actually posting things, I don’t know the holidays this culture celebrates and only could tell from small bits from outside sources before entering this place.

That said, today seems to be the day of Dracula daily or something, where a part of the novel is sent to us every day until the story finishes.

Having never read the original novel (not saying this as a joke of time loops as some posts I saw said, genuinely never read it), I plan to celebrate the story alongside the rest of you Hellsite inhabitants and subscribed to Dracula Daily to join in.

Let’s see where Jonathan Harker ends up going.

#dracula daily #dracula #jonathan harker #with each event or holiday I celebrate in this site #I feel more and more like I belong here #Can’t believe I hesitated coming here for so long because other sites made it sound like this place was a chaotic mess (derogatory) #Now I see it isn’t as bad as the other sites made it out to be #Hope to enjoy this story with the rest of you people in this chaotic mess (affectionate)

Cursed Chimera

#Mimzy #fursona #original character #original species #art #2024 #sometimes you just gotta take your weird lil chimera sona and draw them with a bunch of different animal parts #I don’t particularly enjoy this look and if you look at older art with Mimzy her parts are more blended and look like they belong to her #but Q and I were discussing her species lore and I just #HAD TO #he called her tasty #anyway hello again here I am dropping art and then vanishing into the ether #I think I’m finally starting to feel better which is great #not gonna push it and jump into blogstuff again just yet but #getting there

y’all know that saying “writers are people, treat them like people!!” means you shouldn’t put them on a pedestal they didn’t ask to be put on, too, right……

#like… y’all know…… saying [insert writer here] is a big writer so automatically they’re *supposedly* more liked is also…… #how you say… impersonal and dehumanizing… #bc 9/10 times “big” writers are shooting in the dark just as much as anyone else #and just trying to vibe and have fun and share their work #very much NOT asking for people to put them on a pedestal and be weird about it #i promise it’s just not that deep #we’re all doing the same things like we’re all writing and reading and yelling about the same stuff #trying to have a good time however we can #all being PEOPLE not just the fics we write and share on our respective accounts #so yeah it’s not just about “when’s the next update” or “why did you write your own fic this way” comments #it’s also about weird unsolicited fan behavior that doesn’t belong and makes people uncomfortable + feel less like a person #just. food for thought. #shut up kay

i found an old bon's burgers coloring book at the thrift store!!! i cleaned up one of my favorite pages, but i figured i'd also post the original out of respect for whatever little artist colored it in. it looks like they gave up on finding their way home :(

#if it isnt clear this is fake i made it #i think it's. maybe a little on the nose but i like how it turned out and i want to make more maybe #also i used she/her for rocket because i headcanon that promotional materials are inconsistent about their pronouns #which i was going to include in the caption but it didnt feel like it belonged so it's here instead #the walten files #twf #rocket bunny #unreality #i need. a better art tag

hey, how's it going! i don't have a job and i'd like to be able to afford some black-out curtains and other things before i suffer in a house without air conditioning again this summer. so, i'm offering some simple, uncolored pencil sketch or line art commissions!

if you're interested, message me at @garlude and i will give you my paypal info and discuss the commission with you! as well, i have a few leftover adoptables you can find here. more examples of my usual work and a few of the commissions i've already taken will be under the cut!

#talk #commissions #i am not currently taking fully colored and everything comms #because they are very time consuming for me #and the pricing would be a lot higher than these #but i mean if you Really want one ?you can still ask #also the reason for the ranges and stuff is like #if you want me to draw you kirby characters or like objects or something #i'm not charging you $30!!! #but i feel like i maybe should raise the prices a bit more for multiple images... #it's just so hard for me to price stuff without more experience doing this #but anyhow #featured ocs here belong to @hometownrockstar / @its3oe / @rabm and @genobeat #and myself

NO I AM NOT OKAY. IF THIS PERSON WHO DID IT IS SOMEONE WHO FOLLOWS ME TAKE IT FREAKING DOWN. I NEVER GAVE PERMISSION FOR SOMETHING LIKE THIS AND NEVER WILL.

If someone knows about this fic. Please please please I beg you please send a link to me so that I could report it. If I remember correctly it is only the author who could report something being stolen on wattpad. (The story they took from is one of my original works that is Just One Drop) And please if you do know or if you find out don't go attacking this person.

#i dont know how to react to this... lost sleep a couple of time cause i was always scared that one day i will find out that someone #stole my works and say that it was there own or something like that. #but now that it finally happened i feel like a deflated balloon more than anything #more of the mentally of like “I guess it finally happened to me.” i cant say i am too surprised about this situation #but i am definitely not happy about this at all. #if you are someone who stole one of my works why do you even do this? #likes or whatever??? there is literally nothing nice about the whole thing. do you feel happy? #do you feel happy that you get likes over something that you didnt make? will anything do to make you happy then at this point?? #i am not trying to be understanding here i am trying to get it in your skull that in the end #you get nothing from this #doing something like this will only get you likes if not that numbers then what else? You built everything on stuff that didnt belong to yo #fame? what fame could you even get from something like this. sooner or later you might just abandon it and then what?? #there is nothing to feel good about it. #this is the reason why people hesitate to even post stuff online at this point cause why even bother #when everything that we make will be stolen at one point and posted again under someone else when we clearly said that we do not want that

the last unicorn post from earlier has me thinking about the master. that yana is still in there, you know? is still someone he was, if even for a brief flash across the life of a time lord. there’s no way to unlive that life. there are ways to twist it later, sure, to make utopia into hell on earth. but the life was lived. in much the same way that the doctor can remember, can feel, the love he held onto as john smith even as that life is ripped out of his hands. the doctor choose denial and then grief and then to shutter it all away. and so john smith died, and so professor yana died, and the doctor and the master live on. the doctor has done this before, and he lives in orbit around humanity, trying to keep the best parts of them and hold them deep enough to take root (which he can pretend he gets to choose, as a time lord. as a human, it all floods in and can’t be dug back out.) but what about the master, right?

to borrow a turn of phrase: i think there are two time lords left in the universe, and they both learned how to regret.

#regret here meaning less feeling the emotion of actual regret obviously because time lords do not actually funxtion on unicorn rules. they #already get sad just fine on their own. no humanity needed for that. #but i dont know. i just dont think he brushed it off so easily. i think he did a hell of a job convincing himself he did. #and what better way then to twist his own great works and destroy the species he was working so hard to save at the end of the universe. #but what about the knowledge that he *could* be that person. that somewhere in him exists a version that wanted to save people. #a version that is painfully too much like the doctor. even. now is that part worse or better than the human part? #but if past regenerations are ghosts i think yana deserves a haunt. #anyway maybe ignore this one im rambling about nothing here #theres just. i dont know. what if you were the last of your kind and in surviving you made yourself Not Like Them in a way you’ll never #escape. #i mean doctor who is just so concerned with all these plots about hybrids and children of the tardis and clones and What Makes A Time Lord. #but they’re so obsessed with it in just. a very Lore way. is what it feels like. we get brushes of more like with jenny and how she’s #physically a time lord and the doctor denies her that inheritance. a shared suffering… #but me myself im just fascinated with the doctor and the master as the time lords who survived. but they survived Wrong #its. its. children of gallifrey that don’t belong to her anymore. you know? #i dont care if river’s got time lord dna!!! or the metacrisis is physically human!!! i dont care!!! talk to me about what it means beyond #their blood and bones!!! what’s it like to have your sense of self stripped from you like that!!! #what’s it like when so much of you is the shed skin of time lords past. but one of you was human. one of you was painfully *humiliatingly* #human!!! #enough about how much dna you need to count as a time lord. i want to know how much they can mutate until they can’t be recognized as one. #does that make sense?

we need more names for men in stories. as a tumblr user in certain fandoms the steve/stede, ed/eddie, buck/bucky of it all is really getting to be too much, you're always one typo away from being in a completely different universe

#have I made this post before? #perhaps #I am just copy pasting a tweet of mine from 9 months ago lol #bc cherokee and I were talking about this today in recording DD #and I brought this up and she waas like HOW is there not a tumblr post about this!! #and I was like I made one! #except then I remembered that I deffinitely tweeted it in the time when I used to tweet #so here it is #we need to talk about this #we need more names for men!!!!!! #unfortunately I love the name buck/bucky/buckley so I probably will name a character that at some point #but steve and eddie I think I can stay away from #I think...? #have I named a character either of those names? #they're solid names #but they belong to those guys you know? #we have reached capacity!!!!!!! #steve/eddie AND stede/ed AND eddie/buck AND steve/bucky #what are we DOING #lauren feels things

I think a big reason I fell in love with Islam and was so willing to revert despite having been very wary of religion and religious people in the past, is that for the first time, I looked at this religion and the people in it, and saw a mutual love.

It didn't look like people blindly worshipping a god or gods or doing it just to avoid punishment and hell. It is people in love with their religion and in love with their god, and it was a god that loved them back.

It is a religion with a god that loves you back. Everything I read and see has shown that again and again. Is God still one to be feared who can punish you for your wrongdoings? Yeah, of course. But God is also one who wants you to be happy, and good and one who is ready to forgive when you turn to repent. God is described with emotions and care.

Its beautiful and its a wonderful mutual love.

#sorry if this is worded weird #and im not picking at other religions with this #this is more my personal view and feelings #there was no connection before #i never felt loved or like i belonged #but here in Islam #i do #do i feel much like i belong with other muslims? #not quite since im queer #and havent had the chance to connect with others yet #but thats not the point #i feel loved and like a belong with Allah #and thats all that matters #a god that laughs #a god that runs to you #what more could i ask for? #islam revert

how much of ilya's acquiescence in shb is resignation in the wake of recognition (and the consequences thereof), like. it's not looking in a mirror, looking at zenos, because even in the nihilism there's a drive, right. but maybe there's a flicker of something in your heart that wants to let him be right about you so that you're something more than a tool.

it can't be "maybe i am just a thing full of hunger, instinct and want and teeth" because instead it's "maybe it's better that someone else holds the leash."

#i read a contemplative zenos post i turn into the fucking thinker for three hours #.... wish u could tag posts w images the rodin guy is in here and he's me #stormblood is so desperate and then there's no rest no processing it's just the insane anxiety of futility and your hands are tied #by your own use and it feels like a failure and it feels like worthlessness and it feels like walking alone into the dark #if u are a thing made of teeth what are you when there's nothing to sink them into. u know. #maybe i am that thing you think i am but maybe only because ive been made that way #maybe the only things that make me worthwhile belong to someone else!!!!!!!!! #whoops more objectification etc #what good am i when there's no one left to use me #xiv blogging #ch: ilya

tbh its unfortunate that it became taboo to ever criticize the ace community like yeah yeah ewww 2017 ass discourse whatever but theres still like Problems . like even before that kink poll was posted i think theres a pretty clear issue of people just Not understanding what sexuality is and a large part of that confusion is definitely coming from the "you can be asexual and still enjoy sex" crowd

#i do feel like the ace community fucked itself over a bit spending more time explaining why it belongs in the lgbt community and not enough #time figuring out what asexuality even Is ... and at this point it has such a broad definition that literally anyone that doesnt immediatel #want to have sex upon meeting someone can consider themselves to be on the ''ace spectrum'' like what are we doing here . #its giving the same energy as conservatives who complain about ''hookup culture'' like i PROMISE you arent in the minority for not #wanting sex on the first date #i just think at this point asexuality has kind of lost any meaning or value it had as a label #like when i see the word asexual in someones bio all it tells me abt that person is that theres like a 30% chance theyre gonna put some #annoying shit complaining about The Allos on my dash #ftr i dont have a problem with everyone who ids as asexual bc who care. if i sound harsh here thats bc i just talk like that 💕 #jude talks #ace discourse #<understand im being kind and tagging this so people can blacklist it. not an invitation for randoms to argue with me u will be blocked
