#but what i mean is

[swordfright]

but you DO think that cdream was only after ctommy right??? the only things he's ever wanted was to be able to control ctommy. he lies to manipulate other people (like lying to csam about the prison and what it was for). sorry i haven't been sure if your one of those freaks or not but i saw some art you reblogged so i figured you're not.

sorry to disappoint you, but i disagree. there are demonstrably other things that c!dream wants, namely:

security

immortality

knowledge

I'd also argue there are other things he wants at various points in the story, and there are also points where he seemingly doesn't know what he wants, even if he would never admit that. i also think the control he's trying to establish over c!tommy during exile is just one of several permutations of his control issues. he wants to control c!tommy during exile because he wants control in general. to me, a lot of what c!dream does throughout the story is fueled by a perceived loss of control and the ensuing spiral. i mean, what is chasing immortality if not the most drastic possible response to loss of control? death is the ultimate loss of control. i don't think these anxieties justify or excuse the bad shit c!dream's done, but i do think they are key components of his motivation and to deny that is to deny the complexities of the story.

also. i'm gonna offer an unsolicited word of advice here. it honestly strikes me as kind of sad that you label every fan with a different interpretation of the source material as a "freak." fandom is a hobby space, not the cold war. the other people in your fandom aren't secret enemies you have to uncover, they are fellow creatives you are in conversation with. do what you want, but i think you'll have more fun in fandom spaces if you relax a little.

#asks #c!dream #“creatives you're in conversation with” sounds like SUCH a pretentious way of putting it lmao #but what i mean is #“community - not competition”

Ok so i tried to paint the aint no rest for the wicked cover art but like it didnt work as well as i had hoped but i spent too much time and paint on this to not share it

#ok ig it did work #enough #but what i mean is #there was already paint on this canvas #so i wasnt painting on a clean canvas #and it made it impossible for me to blend the colors well #im already bad at blending and the circumstances made it 10x harder for me #so like its not as accurate as id like but yk its fun #i enjoyed making it #chonny jash #cccc #wait that isnt the right tag #IDC #my art #🗣️

you identifying in the way that best represents you won't hurt anyone, will it?

#this is poorly worded. i'm sorry. #but what i mean is #this is a nonbinary safe space. an aro/ace safe space. an mspec safe space. a xenogender/neopronoun safe space. #and on a different topic - a system safe space. an autistic safe space [this blog is run by an autistic person !]. #a safe space for everyone with ANY personality disorder. including cluster b. #i might have forgotten some stuff. and i know the words of a vent blog dont really matter. but i support you all.

Sometimes I get my friends to explain sex things to me because I’m super ace outside of snz (and they do not know of the exception) and anyway today this was shared with me, maybe this is common knowledge idk but do with it what you will

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

#yeehaw #1k #5k #10k #posts that got cursed. blasted. im making these tag updates after... 19 hours? #also i have been told it should say speech loss bc nonverbal specifically refers to the permanent state. did not know that! #unfortunately i fear it is so far past containment that even if i edited it now it would do very little. but noted for future reference #edit 2: nvm enough ppl have come to rb it from me directly that i changed the wording a bit. hopefully this makes sense #also. in case anyone is curious. though i doubt anyone who is commenting these things will check the original tags #1) my friend did not do this on purpose in any way. it was not intended to distract me or to hit on me. im a lesbian hes a gay man. cmon now #he felt very bad about it afterwards. i thought it was hilarious but it was very embarrassed and apologetic #2) “why didn't he use 🫵🏼?” didn't exist yet. “why didn't he use 🆗?” dunno! we'd been using a lot of hand emojis. 👌🏼 is an ok sign #like it makes sense. it was just a silly mixup. also No i did not invent 👉🏼👌🏼 as a gesture meaning sex. do you live under a rock #3) nonspeaking episodes are a recurring thing in my life and have been since i was born. this is not a quirky one-time thing #it is a pervasive issue that is very frustrating to both myself and the people i am trying to communicate with. in which trying to speak is #extremely distressing and causes very genuine anguish. this post is not me making light of it it's just a funny thing that happened once #it's no different than if i post about a funny thing that happened in conjunction w a physical disability. it's just me talking abt my life #i don't mind character tags tho. those can be entertaining. i don't know what any of you are talking about #Except the ppl who have said this is pego/ryu or wang/xian. those people i understand and respect #if you use it as a writing prompt that's fine but send it to me. i want to see it #aaaand i think that's it. everyday im tempted to turn off rbs on it. it hasn't even been a week

the worst part about being an adult is thay its no longer socially acceptable to just roll down a really big hill and then run back up it and roll back down again. "oh is this a syphilis metaphor" passerby would ask. "is this for a tick tock". no i just wanna come home covered in dirt and scratches and bask in the the solace of childlike mirth

#m text #everyone rbing this without the addition and commenting 'op did you mean sisyphus' yes. yes i did #'where did the discord screenshot reblog go did you delete it' well in the 10mn after posting it someone had a funnier reblog #so i was like oh. ill delete the less funny one i did for the funnier one #and then. guess what got big.

[seenthisepisode]

no offence but the reason tumblr is “dying” is, well, yes, of course the cursed like/reblog ratio and the change in user behaviour (because of people being used to how instagram and tiktok work) BUT also the lack of weekly shows. i say it with my whole chest, they don't produce captivating and engaging stupid weekly tv shows anymore because streaming killed that so you have spikes of activity here when Something happens in general fandom or up to three days after a new season of whatever drops and then it's a wasteland. this is obviously an old woman yelling at a cloud missing supernatural and the vampire diaries and pretty little liars and all these other shows type of post but honestly give me back weekly tv shows where i have something to watch for 40 minutes almost every day of the week after work so then i can read and reblog it on tumblr give it back for the sake of my sanity

#we used to be a proper country #or something #this post is brought to you by me coming back from work and being like okay what now 🧍🏻‍♂️ #i mean obviously i have stuff to do but these are just chores and what i need what i have been programmed to need is a 40 minute long #episode of stupid cw show with a gay ship that's never gonna go canon... :((( #tumblr #fandom

#tumblr polls #random polls #poll time #i love looking at usernames and wondering what it MEANS #so many of you guys have such cool sounding usernames #i just picked random words i like LMAO #serious because people always see me as super serious irl (i'm just a very anxious perfectionist lol) #and turd because i have the sense of humor of a toddler and think poop jokes are funny

So... a bunch of NFT grifters threw a party in Hong Kong this weekend and reportedly a bunch of attendees are now at risk of permanent eyesight damage because the promoters used unsafe lighting, and people are going to the ER...

#jfc #I mean I know crypto is a fucking grift #but I kind of didn't think it would PHYSICALLY harm the idiots who invested in it #literally can't believe the last poster #like.... at what point DO you stop sucking these guys' dicks??!? #AFTER they blind you?!? WTF

I have had it with this likescolding. “Tumblr doesn’t have an algorithm so likes don’t actually do anything” motherfucker I am not clicking that heart to give some post better ~algorithmic visibility~ I am clicking that heart to help my internet friend microdose on serotonin as god fucking intended

#personal #as in this heart means I will personally give you a big ol kiss #I appreciate that you showed me that thing even if it doesn't fit with the vibe of what I put on my tumblog

people are drawing Steamboat Willie Mickey doing all this crazy shit and whatnot, but you could always do that. you can do that now, with current Mickey, just fine. it's fanart and it's legally protected. hell you could take Disney-drawn Mickey and put a caption about unions or whatever on it and it would still be protected under free speech and sometimes even parody law.

what is special about public domain is that you can SELL him. you could take a screenshot and sell it on a tshirt. you can use him to advertise your plumbing business. people have already uploaded and monetized the original film.

you could always have Mickey say what you want, but now you can profit off it.

#steamboat willie #Mickey mouse #Disney #public domain #you can't trademark him as like a logo or mascot of your plumbing business i just mean like #you can slap him in your commercial or side of the van #i just have seen soooo many people make ORIGINAL art of him and I'm like #no that's not the point!! you can already do that!!! #(obvs if it's a comic or something talking about him being free or whatever then yeah like i get it) #(but those people who put him as a fighter in their game?? Quinton reviews uploading the original video?? boss shit) #(THAT'S what it's about)
