#a nerve was touched sorry

[bucksboobs]

I do think at some point in the not too distant future, the 911 fandom, at least on Tumblr, is going to have to reckon with the fact that despite M!slash being the main driving force of the fandom, gay men like myself are in the vast minority (I think a recent poll put us at something like 6% but it didn’t separate bisexuals by gender so it’s hard to say how many mlm are actually in the fandom) and in the same way being a gay man doesn’t exempt him from being incidentally or purposefully misogynistic, being some other flavor of the rainbow doesn’t prevent someone from perpetuating homophobia against men who love men.

At some point the jokes about how Tommy is just here for dick or should just get dick and move on (when he’s already made it very clear that he wants a relationship with Buck) are going to start to sound like hypersexual stereotypes of gay men. At some point the constant push to get them to break up as soon as possible and for Tommy to die or get shipped off to Arizona or wherever is going to seem less like regular ship hate and more like wanting a gay male character to be punished for daring to seek a relationship with a man in the first place. We obviously aren’t there yet but I do think we should be aware that it is fast approaching.

#this isn’t even directed at anyone in particular but a post got on my nerves #and it was yet another one invalidating Buck and Tommy because they weren’t friends before they dated #which is like… you know how most people date nowadays? #like I WISH any of the friends I have IRL were interested in men because there are several of them I would date and YET #here I am on fucking Tinder #but ANYWAY #a nerve was touched sorry

hmmMMM

touch, y'know?

bonus:

#uhhh #¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #fnaf sb #fnaf daycare attendant #fnaf sun #fnaf moon #suggestive #bc uh. yeah. lol. implications #(this is also #ventura highway #canon tbh. just largely off-screen) #like they're made of metal and wire and coding. they don't have nerves to interpret stimuli #and yet #they have maybe pressure sensitivity and MAYBE temperature sensors if we're being very generous #they don't (can't) get the same thing out of this as y/n does #listen. i got emotions about TOUCH and what that means to someone who can't like. properly perceive it #and how that affects a relationship where all parties are some degree of touch starved #anyway sorry to wax poetic in the tags of this borderline spicy art i got emotions about robots #my art

Lotd have mer y ADC looks so good with her new selfie. And she’s posting flowers as usual 🥹

And wearing a white shirt. I'll say this, you can't accuse the girl of not staying consistently on brand 🥴

I will say also, she's never escaping the Victoria Pedretti doppleganger allegations any time soon (although I guess it'd be the other way around since she's older. Whatever) Anyway they neeeeeeed to play sisters at some point cuz what the actual fuck are we doing here like what is the point of all this if that never happens

#anon #I'm sorry in advance but that last one gives me overwhelming AWTR vibes #Lexa's not much of a selfie taker by nature. she just doesn't see the point. “I know what I look like already Clarke- #i don't need to thousand pictures to remind myself. i bet I could even pick myself out of a lineup. no help needed“ #cuz she's also a little smartass ya see #but this feels like such a AWTR Lexa thing to do #to have this little disposable camera that she takes with her on their trips - their honeymoon. their rides along the coast. apple picking. #and she just... takes pictures. of anything she feels like. moments that obviously meant something to her #or that's what Clarke assumes when she finds the thing tucked away in Lexa's bedside drawer when she finally packs up to move #2 days before she's heading to the other side of the country and she finds herself sitting on the edge of Lexa's bed holding this gd camera #that she's completely forgotten existed #an hour of trying not to throw up just touching it - an hour of driving to the nearest pharmacy that still prints these damn things - #and a day of waiting for the roll to get developed is enough to have Clarke walking around like the equivalent to an exposed nerve ending #the first half of the roll just makes her smile cuz it's exactly what she expected #pictures of leaves. bumper stickers she saw. shots of the ocean at sunset. a weird rock Clarke distinctly remembers Lexa calling ~majestic #too many shots of Clarke doing mundane things that Lexa apparently thought needed capturing #and then like a suckerpunch to the face... there's this #a shot that Clarke knows without knowing that Lexa took to finish out the roll #probably snapped in a moment of Lexa's little way of saying 'hi :)' #but all it feels like in her hands one last goodbye... #wow this got away from me #my bad #AWTR

i think the phrase “go nonverbal” needs to be taken away from the internet lexicon as a whole

#girl you are not ‘going nonverbal’ you are simply not talking 😭 i’m sorry #not trying to invalidate anyone with selective mutism obviously #but the venn diagram of ppl with selective mutism & ppl who make memes about ‘going nonverbal’ is 2 circles that don’t even touch #sorry for discourse this shit just gets on my nerves as someone who works with nonverbal/minimally verbal people

Hrngh I just. I don't want to argue with people but. Being an addict is not a moral issue. You are not more morally good and pure for never having experienced addiction. You are not inherently bad for being an addict. Like the recovery narrative centres becoming a "better person" or being "redeemed" BUT BEING IN ACTIVE ADDICTION DOES NOT MAKE SOMEONE INHERENTLY A BAD PERSON. You don't need to be redeemed. That kind of dichotomous thinking is detrimental to recovery, setting people up to see relapse as a moral failure, a weakness in character, something they need to repent and self flagellate for. When it's just... not. It's a part of the process.

And even beyond that, if you can't bring yourself to uncouple addiction from morality, you have to see that addiction never happens in a vacuum. To ignore the socioeconomic factors that contribute, the way that addiction and alcoholism intersect frequently with chronic pain, the way that our society is essentially made hostile to people experiencing addiction which then in turn self-perpetuates... it seems needlessly cruel as well as ridiculously individualistic. Pull yourself up by your bootstraps type of mentality. Poverty and chronic pain are significant contributing factors in many cases of long term addiction; it is far more useful to blame power structures that allow people to remain in poverty, their pain untreated, the inequalities and failed safety nets, disregard for vulnerable populations, all amounting to social murder. Choosing instead to place blame and vitriol at the feet of addicts is unhelpful at best and frankly malicious at worst.

#this is not about one thing in particular just a combination of multiple things ive seen recently but it is getting to me a bit tbh #personal #alcohol #addiction #yes conversation today prompted this but also #frustrating anti harm reduction person earlier and general tone of conversation around these topics in general.. #i'm sorry for going on about it and i don't want anyone to feel attacked but this. touched a nerve. #it's the moralising and the blaming and argh can we just be a bit more conscious of the language we're using idk #brain fog is 👍 #oh and also mentioning recovery- harm reduction often involves what people who talk like this about addicts would get mad about anyway #people act like you have to do it as fast as possible and suffer the consequences bc you know. 'you did this to yourself' #< awful thing to say btw #but like. it takes time. it's more important for a person to be well than to be sober #completely lost my thread now sdfghjk

legit saw a team bl*ck stan say that alicent is a terrible mother and maybe she should have mothered less because her children are either horrible or hate her. are they really that idiotic? do they really think alicent can just say no to viserys WHO FORCED THOSE CHILDREN ON HER? they assume she had a choice when she did not. she never did.

#anti team black stans #anti team black #alicent hightower #pro alicent hightower #helaena not liking to be touched doesn’t mean she hates her #and they also have the nerve to say team green is whitewashed #sorry they’re not the one dimensional villains you want them to be #fire & blood is not meant to be taken as completely true #all the sources are UNRELIABLE #the hate alicent gets is terrible #whatever she does it’s not good enough #this women has been put trough so much and people still refuse to see it #she is not the perfect victim to be so they resprt to calling her disgusting names and making repuslive memes #bunch of idiots #house of the dragon #hotd

do you guys think there's some birds who are attracted to macaque because he's essentially a zombie walking around? birds surround him because they can smell the dead off him and they try to peck at him but no one knows why they do this, like at all.

if macaque is a dead man walking and doesn't have a heartbeat, do you think his other organs don't work either? if that's true, i think he'd eat and drink as a way to get some sort of normalcy back and not because he actually needs to.

same thing with sleeping, HOWEVER, to me he has insomnia so while he likes sleeping he almost never can. it doesn't really affect him but he likes acting like it does because it genuinely makes him grumpy if he gets no sleep.

he also looks awful. like aside from the matted fur (and the MISSING fur) and the scars, his skin is slightly paler and he has patches where there's almost no pigment because there's no blood flowing through him anymore. he looks sick and i think that catches people off guard all the time.

#🔆 #extra touch. he can pull out his blind eye like it was nothing and also has nerve damage on the side of his face #or body tbh #so the right side has restricted mobility #he also sometimes can't feel pain on that side too #that's why it's the first place he takes hits at #lmk macaque #lmk #lego monkie kid #summoning circle for my host to come back sorry #the six eared macaque

I’ll add it to the Rentry when I have time but y’all. I’m fine with terms relating to celibacy in general ( there is nothing wrong with being celibate for any reason, just like there is nothing wrong with those who are sex-ambivalent, repulsed, or any other stance or orientation regarding wanting to have sex ) but if you have unironic “-pill / -pilled” terms ( ex. red- ) on your blog or are requesting them from me, I’m not comfortable with that. I will block you.

I’ve known someone who frequented spaces which made that terminology, seriously incorporated it into their life and outlook, and overall it just lead to them being depressed and becoming bigoted. It seriously hurt them, and it was hurtful to be targeted by that language. Communities which use this terminology for real can seriously worsen your mental health and make you think you’re unlovable or unwanted forever, or that you need to risk your health to become more attractive to others and “deserve love”.

That’s not true. I promise you are already worthy of love and that there are people who do want you in their life. If you’re in a rough spot, these communities and this terminology are not going to help you get out of it. They thrive on being negative, nitpicking your appearance, and getting you to lash out at other people and nitpick them as well. There are resources online if you need help with this, as well as are multiple studies on how they operate and stories of people recovering if you need to read them.

It’s fine to ironically use “-pill / -pilled” suffixes as clear jokes, especially ones which are pointing out how messed up or nonsensical these communities/mindsets are, but please don’t make serious flags or symbols which ignore how bigoted and harmful the actual terminology is and how these spaces have genuinely hurt people. Sorry for the long post that most people here probably know / agree with anyways

#iso.bug #i don’t know if i should make this rebloggable. this honestly touched a personal nerve with me and made me sad #even worse that it was something i saw from a relatively large blog i previously enjoyed #and getting (i think) an unrelated request from anon which made me very uncomfortable #but this kind of thing actually harms people and had lead to serious events irl #i’m sorry for the serious post but this is a hard boundary of mine and a general PSA

CW: angry rant

Why do people tell other people to die\kill themselves over the most stupidest shit ever. Like I saw 2 people telling other people to kill themselves in the tags of the Tumblr streamers thing (y'know the ad) just because dream was in it I know dream is a bad person but there's no reason to tell people to literally DIE and besides there's more mcyts\streamers than Just Dream so please don't tell people to kts over something so small

#I'm sorry I'm just SO angry about this #I was going to post this tomorrow but I changed my mind #And I know I don't usually touch on serious topics like this since this is a lighthearted blog #But it was getting on my nerves so bad #dream situation #Jaxr rambles
