I know you have something to say about Farah.

Do it.

You know you want to. 😊😉

You lot know me so well 💔💔

Giggles but actually, I’m sorry for randomly vanishing, long story short ive been dealing w some personal stuff and been hesitant to start posting again bc it might be a bit on n off lol. But most things have chilled out a little bit, so i might dip my head back into writing 😇

Also, bc of my amazing luck, I literally got sick, like, today. Sooo, have my fever-induced Farah rambles 😻 Brought to you by. Idk probably the flu or something 💪

Note: the fact i managed to dump this all out in one session before napping is a lil funny ngl 😇

Double note: I acc had a different plan for this, but the sickness has unfortunately taken me, and I’m just going with the flow atp 😇 prepare for more of my Farah braindumps after i’m mildly more alive 😚

Farah & Sick!reader drabble 😚

(Tws: vague sickness, fever 👍)

Lets start this off with the simple fact that- she’s the queen of home remedies. You could pick up some degenerative alien disease from a far off solar system, and she probably has something for it. Mot to mention that she’s pretty good at making said remedies notably more appealing, which definitely doesn’t hurt. Sure, she won’t shy away from medicating you, more than prepared to deal with your slightly high shenanigans, but it’s definitely nice to not be drugged up instantly.

She’s also absolutely attached to you at the hip. It’s like she’s given herself the job of your personal nurse, or something. Of course, she’s doing what’s best for you, but she folds just a little at the sight of your soft, weepy eyes.

Admittedly, she’s not the best cook on the planet. She has more important responsibilities than learning to cook. However, for you? She digs up every family recipe she could find, probably digging up an old scrapbook or two of her grandparent’s meanwhile. She’s determined to shower you in gourmet-level food as much as humanly possible, even if that means constantly ducking out of the kitchen to check on you, cuddled up on the couch.

Speaking of cuddles, she’s an absolute cuddle monster. The second you’ll let her, she’s buried alongside you, her gentle warmth dissolving into tour achy muscles, your pounding head showered in soft little kisses - even a couple on the lips, if she can sneak them, because, no, love, she doesn’t care about getting sick, she’ll live.

And, of course, she’ll insist on a nice bath with you, seeing as she just wants to see you better, sweetheart. Her getting to snuggle up with you in the tub is definitely just a happy coincidence.

Bathing with Farah is absolutely heavenly. She fills up the tub herself, happily murmuring pleasant little anecdotes and warm comforts into your ears as lukewarm water splashes around behind you. Gently helping you out of your pyjamas (well, her pyjamas, that were practically yours at this point), she dips her foot into the water, feeling the coolish liquid cover her feet. She slowly eases you in, a slight guilt pooling in her heart as you whine about just how cold the water felt. She keeps you buried in her arms throughout, kissing your cheeks and praising you sweetly, even letting you tuck your face against her shoulder.

Once you’re actually in, the bath is a near-perfect affair. Farah keeps you against her chest the entire time, happily kneading at your pained muscles, letting the water wash away the sweat staining your skin. She guides you down softly, supporting your neck with a gentle, rough hand as she dips your hair into the water, letting it wash away the tightness behind your eyes as best it could, easily tasking herself with washing your hair. It’s like she turns into your personal masseuse, looping a leg around your hips to keep you safely tucked against her, stroking delicately through the soft strands of your hair, loving hands brushing against their perfect spot on your scalp, leaving your muscles at a similar consistency to the water you were surrounded by.

She takes to washing your hair easily, lathering each product in her hands and warmly rubbing them in, pressing kisses to your cheeks and forehead between each one (her face occasionally scrunches as the misplaced product stains her mouth, but it’s worth it to see the little contented smile against your lips).

Thankfully, she doesn’t shy away from care elsewhere, either. She easily lathers each skincare product against your prone form, adjusting you gently against her arms to completely cover every inch of your sweet, delicate skin. Of course, each touch is punctuated with a little massage, hoping to soothe each and every inch of your sickly form, along with her fair share of kisses.

Unsurprisingly, getting out of the tub felt like hell. Sure, the water was mildly cold, but you’d adjusted to it, at this point, lazing easily against Farah’s warmth like a cat in the sun. You definitely felt like a wet cat as she eased you up, shivers immediately picking up the second your skin was exposed to the icy-seeming air. A snug, fluffy towel was wrapped around you almost immediately, with Farah swiftly reaching out to crank the heating up - just enough to keep the temperature difference from making your sickness worse.

Farah was quick to herd you into the bedroom, sitting you down on the bed and exchanging the, now damp, towel for a cosy robe she’d bought a while ago, surprisingly still unused.

And, before you could even consider protesting, she was crouched between your legs, gently towelling down the damp skin. She slowly made her way up, from your feet all the way up to your hair, occasionally popping to and from the bathroom, finishing off your skin and hair care.

By the time she’d finished, you were cuddled up in another - notably lighter - pair of her pyjamas, buried safely on her side of the bed, her honeyed scent filling your senses. Your head was pillowed against her chest, eyes trained vaguely before you as she flicked through her movie catalogue, looking for something peaceful yet entertaining.

Eventually, after her careful deliberation, she decides on some lighthearted romcom. It doesn’t particularly matter at this point, though, seeing as you’d conked out before the opening credits had even begun, your soft, purring snores filling the room and bringing a loving smile to her face. Looking after you so delicately had been amazing, but she was absolutely relieved you were finally getting the sleep your body so desperately needed.

Sighing happily, she lays the two of you down, snuggling beneath the covers and kissing you goodnight, easily falling into slumber in her favourite place - cuddled up beside you.

[yesloulou]

pleaseee sort all drivers, i am here for this crossover!

thank u for this ask i had so much fun i acc made a lil graph for it lol

first of all. daniel is a slytherin 100%!!! see tags on this post:

max -> hufflepuff: he's hard working (training in the rain) he's patient (waiting all those yrs at rb for a winning car) he's loyal (actually said he'll retire at rbr) and he's extremely fair (ad 22 when he refused to block charles to help checo his teammate get p2 in wdc)

(my chirlie mutual started hate shipping lestappen after this lol)

checo -> hufflepuff:the fact that his loyalty still lies with force india/racing point to this day... also the fact that he's able to maintain a surprisingly good relationship w daniel even though every day 20730847 articles come out talking about daniel taking his seat?? (according to c horner max and checo actually get on better when daniel is there). i feel like this is bc checo is a compassionate person (he had been in daniel's shoes in 2020) and he sees that it's fair daniel will ofc take the chance if he's able to get his old rb seat back.

charles -> slytherin: 1. the ambition of envisioning himself driving for ferrari since he was like a fetus 2. the being comfortable with lying for the greater good 3. the following jules his god father who was a first gen FDA driver pretty much step by step (heritage) 4. and the resourcefulness of getting himself endorsed by the Todt's at age 14.. that mouse is a slytherin!!! in fact. did you know he's affectionately known among the italian tifosi as 'viperella 🐍'? plz refer this brilliant scholarship by @dhufflebee.

carlos -> hufflepuff: when he said 'i was very good i was very fast today' with barely suppressed tears.... when he said his penalty was 'not deserved it is TOO SEVERE i said please please please please to wait to wait until the race is finished and speak to me'........ that was a man trembling w rage bc he was treated unfairly and his hard work was not valued

lewis -> ravenclaw: he's obviously either ravenclaw or slytherin and i think the fact that he likes to distance himself from his peers a lil bit to focus on racing puts him in the former. also whenever he's asked about things happening on the grid (daniel losing his seat, seb's retirement...) i get a feeling that he's very cordial yet doesn't get involved all that much.

george -> slytherin: you would think he has a similar family background to lando's bc of the extra posh accent he maintains and the way he dresses so well... wrong. you're actually looking at a man who values heritage more than you might think. he's ambitious and prepared and driven yet subtle about it (suffered all those years in williams for the merc oppurtinity). he's also a very prideful person imo (see: flipping vb the bird immediately after portugal 21 crash). slytherin thru and thru

fernando -> slytherin: next

lance -> ravenclaw: i can see the slytherin argument bc he comes from money but i feel like he values truths and facts more than he is prideful or unrelenting. see: fact checking max over 180 cm height (where the iconic 'he claims that?' came from). see also: 'ask george about my vegas tag junior win in 2012.. ask him about it.. yeah hahaha ask him about it...' also he has a certain calmness and resignation that comes from valuing facts and observations above else. see:

lando -> slytherin: i love him but the amount of times he whined on the radio so mcalren would team order daniel to maintain position and not fight..... the cunningness, the being comfortable with exaggerating his situations to his engineer... the benefiting from his heritage (the millions of pounds of norris money injected into mclaren).. the resourcefulness of somehow getting z brown involved with his personal brand quadrant which subsequently established mclaren and himself as a package deal... he's a slytherin. he makes fernando alonso proud.

esteban -> ravenclaw: idk esteban that well but the fact that he used to count checo's sins to every media post race back when they were teammates at racing point, then go on twitter with receipts knowing full well it wouldn't change a thing bc checo had the sponsors he didn't... este speaks with facts and he embodies ravenclaw's signature 'resigned cynics'

(the 'perez tried to kill me 2 times!' 😭)

pierre -> gryffindor: suzuka 22 post race where he hesitated but then started talking about jules anyway ("i don't think what happened today was respectful towards jules and his family"). he got a very heavy handed penalty from the fia afterwards which to me feels retaliating. that's a very brave boy. also he is not afraid to show his temper (example) and doesn't easily back down (the alleged shouting match with, and i kid you not, adrian newey). he is very gryffindor.

yuki -> gryffindor: he's obviously passion driven, hence temper <3. also i think the fact that he and pierre became such good friends despite being teammates and having incidents on track rlly speaks for how much they trust and are loyal to each other

alex -> hufflepuff: idk alex that well but the whole concept of drs train conductor is so very hufflepuff coded. i worked hard i was patient i dragged my tractor in front of yours so you're not overtaking me. it's all fair game.

logan -> slytherin: i mean obviously this was taken right outside of their commom room

– end –

p.s. shout out to @tyrannosaurus-maxy for organizing the sort the grid polls you're truly our trend setter!!! ✨

[sn4pozu]

my headcanons of Eddie Gluskin if he had a twitter :

he'd repost those RETVRN incel trad memes where its like a woman doing house chores & man doing job stuff

would get into arguments with a woman and subscribe to her onlyfans at the same time (gets mad when blocked)

tries to be professional and a know-it-all but also his entire likes tab is porn (he doesnt know it shows publicly)

calls someone a whore & drops a bible verse in the same thread arguing with them

idk if he'd be delighted with minion memes or viscerally hate them

USES DISNEY REACTION GIFS WITH NO SHAME , USES A CRYING STITCH GIF AT A DODO VIDEO OF A DOG DYING

If twitter bans his account mid argument he'd flip the fuck out and make 3 gmails & alts at the same hour

100% posts creepy comments under peoples post and gets upset if it gets hidden

flirts so much you'd think hes a bot but no he's just sending random women his number (does he care if they're married or not is completely dependant on his mood)

uses the nice guy card whenever shit starts going south

he gets doxxed he goes like "that's not me" (lies, is scared)

either that or he lashes out and start sending them death threats who knows

menace with the twitter Voice Note feature

not even a mutual KYS no hes going to write out his whole murder fantasy in a person's DMs and blocks them before they could respond

gets IP banned on twitter like, weekly, he just figures out VPN apps and finds a way to harrass people constantly

media tab is his breakfast and someones mutilated genitals, bi-weekly photo updates maybe

im not saying he would complain about hairloss but he would complain about hairloss

"i got declined by the pharmacist for asthma medication, fucking bitch *insert something mysogonistic*"

thinks bitcoin is stupid and not a real "manly job" so he dogs on them pretty horribly

thinks tech jobs are for NERDS and says it outloud whenever them NFT bros are commenting under his shit attacking him for calling them nerds

Cracked phone screen with blood in the cracks (he tried to clean it with soapy water on a towel but it just ruined the lcd now its forever stained yellow) ((free bluescreen eye protector mode ?)) (((also has to violently tap the home button because its already broken & that part of the screen died))) ((((has an odd smell))))

he wishes he'd have glasses for the phone screen but all he does is squint

would post dress updates though <3 maybe retweets sewing patterns and videos of old women knitting and go "my grandmother used to do that pattern, ❤️ Wow."

goes back to shitting on women

*posts black coffee with 2 fruitflies in it* "A Good Way To Start A Morning ☕"

posts half eaten food and the dirty plate and would be like "Delicious food today 😋 i almost forgot to pots." -- deletes & reposts because of the typo. PEOPLE CANNOT THINK HE'S WEAK.

His vest would 100% be posted on those gimmick accounts and gets picked on for it being crusty & grody 😔

DMs like multiple women at the same time and either gets immediately blocked or ghosted after a face reveal

he Has cried because of twitter comments before, never again......

has twitter warning threads made of him and has tried to draw a stupid fucking wojack on paper with pencil & pen because he doesnt know how to edit photos but he still wants to own the haters

posts gore to own the haters as well and then got mass reported to death when people found 0 similar images of the gore he posted

'A Thread On @/Eddie287367927 TW: Gore, Mutilation, Harassment, Transphobia, Misogyny'

probably had a youtube documentary made about his twitter acc and all the drama he got himself into (either by accident or for fun)

ok this idea kinda came up to me after i saw a trad meme come up on my tl and i just HAD to dump this all out somewhere

Hi love your content your an amazing writer!

I have my own slight opinion on the Danny Tennessee situation. I really like Danny he’s really funny but like many people I have lost respect for hon recently. I think that they make a cute couple but idk whilst Ten may be gorgeous she does obviously need male validation a large amount of the time.

For me personally if a girl actively pursues a guy who she knows is in a relationship then they loose all respect from me. I also think and this is gonna sound harsh so i’m sorry if anyone disagrees with me but this whole situation has probably made female creators reputation even worse. As lets be honest if Ten was not a stunning as she is Danny’s fanbase would probably not be as behind and supporting the relationship as she is.

As someone who always tries to support female creators, Ten has kinda just really disappointed me. Bot that she needs to be like a feminist creator obvs not she can create whatever content she wants but the way she acts is and especially during locked in was extremely disrespectful. Like imagine if that had happened to her I fully imagine her making a tik tok about it calling out the girl or maybe not Idk i try to avoid her content now as it just annoy’s me. I may give her a third chance one day but for now I just can’t especially after all this had recently happened.

Also this is coming from a girl who is around the same age as you I think possibly a year old idk but just from what i’ve seen you talk about on here. Anyways I wish you the best day ♥️

Heya lovely, tysm for the love and hope you're having a wonderful day also

And you're genuinely so right. It's such a basic matter of loyalty in a relationship to not cheat, for one, but then also just... not pursue other girlies? So Danny's a dick for that undeniably, and then Tenessee on top of that, encouraging Danny's behaviour isntead of also acknowledging that he has a gf... Horrid work from the two of them. But as you've said, Danny's male audience are sooo blind to Danny's disloyalty, and literally the only reason that they're so supportive of the relationship is because Tennessee is so gorgeous. And I wonder how long the support for Ten will last because I think that the male consumer of online content will recognise a woman's aesthetic value for only a short period of time before becoming "accustomed" to it, or just overlooking it and critiquing them more harshly for their other assets...

I feel like Ten will somehow also be criticised for going out with a guy that's uglier than her? Like respectfully, whilst they're both good-looking, Danny is definitely the one punching within this relationship. And idk why but post breakup (assuming they would break up at some pt...), ofc the fanboys will stick loyal to Danny... But I wonder what they'll say to Ten?

Sorry it's taken me so long to respond, im not even gna try respond to the rest bc i'll take another day or so j writing and im super tired atm... all in all you've done really in depth thought as is and it's pretty much everythign i've thought about the situation before too. Ten really isn't a girls girl and idk why more girlies dont point it out. I think it's a pretty privelege thing though (eugh)

And that's acc quite cute that we're similar ages n that, slide into dms if u wanna chat more ab general stuffs, im always down for a convo, and i hope YOU have the best day when u next read this broski

Heyy,

My old account got deleted but I’m not giving up! So here I am again…

My old acc was wannabewe1ghtl3ss (obv). I made a similar name so people could find me again.

My most liked post was the one where I just repeated the phrase “Don’t eat” many many times, it had around 3.000 likes…

I’m really sad it got deleted because I just now started to get a lot of followers.. but it is what it is.

I’m just going to continue posting like nothing had happened and we will see if I get some of my followers/ mutals back.

[sukifoof]

(this is my main lol my other acc is @princeyralsei) I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT I ABSOLUTELY LOVE HOW U INTERPRET FLOWEY/AZZY like so many utdr fans dont get him at all and it's so hard to find ppl to talk ab him with i just love him sm!

idk if u associate him with this but I like to compare his trauma to dissociative disorders, since his journey with feeling numb really helped me come to terms with my experiences with something similar. Maybe deltarune azzy just has a dissociative disordee this time instead of being a flower XD. Ofc the situations are VERY DIFFERENT LOL but yeah.

I love his and papyrus' friendship too bc i relate to papy a lot and very much want to form a fan club for Flowey too 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Anyway those are my thoughts I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR MORE OF UR HEADCANONS AB HIM. AND UR ART IS AWESOME!!

THANK U!!! i feel like i also really struggle to find other people who interpret him the way i do so i am always so pleased when someone agrees with my many paragraphs of analysis on him <3 i think dissociative disorders make a LOT of sense for flowey!! i always like to see other people who have been able to come to terms with their Various Struggles thanks to flowey cuz. Me Too Man. i've had Extremely Similar Experiences to flowey when it comes to our type of trauma and the ptsd that comes with it and it's really touching to see a character like flowey handle what exactly that kind of loss and the aftermath feels like. like yeah man flowey u get it. which i think is probably why i analyze him so much i look at him and the spiderman meme pops up in my head we point at each other and go SAME TRAUMA??? hes a very special character to me i love him dearly

ALSO THANK U!! i love talking about flowey so much.... one of my hcs is that the only person hes Like That (extra edgy and dramatic) around is frisk cuz theyve already seen him when hes. Having A Moment. but i also like to think papyrus is the only person he really feels calm around cuz hes. u know. papyrus. while with frisk i imagine he doesnt really wanna reopen old issues so hes just their weird edgy older brother who sits at home all day. "just let frisk live their life" yeah thats frisks loser brother who WILL throw rocks directly at ur face if ur mean to them cuz only HES allowed to bully them. i also think he probably tries very hard to stay away from his parents cuz he doesn't know how to go about That issue... but i think one day he'll finally be able to open up and maybe calm down a bit. and yet he still tries to kinda... take care of things Behind The Scenes like making sure asgores plants dont die if he forgot to water them or making sure toriel is taking care of herself. i think about him a lot

ALSO!!! i have been thinking about an au where he comes back and hes pretty much flowey but hes still in Goat Form which i might post later so if u are interested.... 👀

Hi. This is an honest post. I haven’t used tumblr since I was 12 years old. I wish I’d never download it because ever since that day I’ve had the most toxic, disgusting relationship with food that consumes my entire day. I feel my friends and family getting sick of my constant subtle rambles abt how little I’ve eaten which are acc pathetic cries for attention and help. Of course, I don’t want help - I want to be skinnier. But skinnier doesn’t exist, the number on the scale is just a fake number, it could go down by a hundred and yet you still think it’s nothing. It only gets worse. Trust me. I don’t want to look like a child anymore but every time I take a bite of anything that I know has a lot of calories i am filled with disgust. It’s all because of Lisa. My ana buddy that was 30 years old whilst I was 12. She told me to starve myself; she told a growing child to starve herself simply bc we were “ana buddies.” It makes me sick. And yet I’m a hypocrite because the only reason I re-downloaded this app was for tips. Tips on losing weight even though I’m already underweight for my age and get called childish constantly bc of my underdeveloped body as a result of stunting my growth. I’m sorry for anyone who deals with this mindset. I’m truly sorry and if anyone needs a friend or anyone to talk to abt similar experiences or just wants to rant I’m a kind soul I promise <3

Hii , Can you please do compatibility reading with jay enhypen.I had requested you this from my old acc and you told me to post seperately :) love you!!

Sun-Capricorn,

Moon-Aquarius,

mercury-Sagittarius

venus- capricorn,

mars-Sagittarius,

jupiter-Sagittarius,

Saturn-leo,

Sure!

Your compatability with Jay

Sun in Taurus

A Capricorn and a Taurus is a great pair! I would say this a great combination already.

Moon in Leo

Ok so I feel like Jay can behave a bit brash emotionally and your more distant so I feel that he will probably be like "Why are they not showing any emotions" but you can view him as too emotional.

Mercury in Taurus

His Taurus stellium already shows he definitely is quite mature and grounded type. He might view your communication style more bold then his.

Venus in Taurus

Venus in Capricorn and Tarus can work well together, you both have similar views on love and are both earth signs.

Mars in Gemini

He can be talkative and inquisitive and you are more bold I would say? Still a compatible pair.

Compatability level is 3/5

[bangtide]

I have to say I really don't like bttm yg lovers or ones who like both top/bttm yg because usually those types always end up leaning towards bttm yg anyway. They're attitude in general toward top yg is either apathetic or downright hateful where they accuse us for not understanding yg and his needs and that he's a "babygirl" and "pillow princess that wants to be taken care of and pampered" or "furry omega cat twink" that wants to "get railed by a big muscular tall older men" and jm is secretly "a dom top alpha behind the shy mochi mask". If anything they don't understand the boys or their personalities at all and it shows especially when they constantly make tweets about trying to prove yg is a babygirl and cutesy and jm is a dominant macho man. It shows insecurity and that they so desperately want them to be this way for their own sake and preferences and I fucking hate it! Because then they think it's okay to harass us and try to push more for the bttm yg/top jm agenda.

for clarity, this was sent to me a while ago when the topic was relevant.

i don't have much to object to bc unfortunately, as i've been forced to accept and confront, you're right. i don't say things like this lightly, but (relevant) bttm yg accs on twt seem like the worst type of Unhinged Top/Bottom Stan. which says a lot, they're all bad. but the bttm yg ones are really fucking bad, bc they use faux intellectualism to justify it and there's no accepted counterdialogue to their nonsense & rpf fanon.

they (the fans who participated in this, which were either enough in volume or obnoxiousness to warrant associating them with bttm yg overall) got away with murder, when anti-top yg (& bttm jm) fanwars choked out the massive top yg/bttm jm community in 2018 after a few years of escalating bullying & fighting. i thought i imagined it until 2020, and it took me until 2021 to start believing it. a blog i spoke to/follow ran some numbers once when we discussed it--i lost the graphs on my broken hdd, but something like 1/3-1/4 of yoonmin writers on ao3 stopped posting fics in 2018. it's unlikely those weren't top yoongi writers, as sope on ao3 had a similar drop at the same time.

but it's all old news at this point. given top yg fans still get widely ripped into & the people claiming false narratives about this continue unchallenged, though, i suppose it has to be discussed when brought up. even if i don't want to bc it's so tired and the rhetoric involved is so, so stupid.

#i'm going to re-crunch some numbers on this & investigate further at some point #i had a project laid out to research it #bc it was deeply affecting to me #but life got in the way #it also interests me a lot #but as i said its so tired/dumb #i can only engage with it so much at a time #anyw. a few asks like this incoming #i'll devise a tag for this stuff soon #so it can be filtered out #but i'm not interested in becoming a top/bttm discourse blog #so don't make me into one #anons #asks #tag later #text

Still sad about buzzly :’)

Feel free to ignore this, I just wanted to say it somewhere. more about buzzly under the “keep reading”

Sorry for the word salad, I just wanted to dump someplace! I’ve just been so devastated this entire year because all the sites that artists use to not only build an audience or post for fun but directly use to support themselves have stabbed us directly in the back, but on top of that I already was struggling to make something of myself before all of this and still am. 

I hate to air it out because I don’t wanna seem like I’m fishing for compliments or support... but art is more than just a fun hobby to me, it’s the only thing i can do for a job so it’s directly tied to my self-worth, the way I can provide for myself and my bf when we move out. So when I make something, I want it to be worth it to others, and so I put everything into it, more hours than what the work demands sometimes just to make sure it looks right, only to post it and receive not nearly as much engagement as I would hope it’d receive. It makes me feel terrible, because it makes me feel like “What if my work isn’t worth it?”. 

Idk... maybe i’m freaking out and poking holes in it or maybe I just can’t see the bigger picture on how far I’ve come but it’s really taken it’s toll on my motivation to create. I felt that personal growth back when it was vanilla dA or back when it was early buzzly but I hate having to keep moving sites because it’s like i’m restarting all over again over and over and over. 

I’m still so very sad about buzzly’s downfall, it was like the chosen one. Of all the indie art sites I’ve tried that sprang up, Buzzly was the most promising (before the gross rule changes) I had so much engagement there and it felt like old deviantart again. It felt good just to comment on polls and talk with others, the layout was fun, and when I’d post something it actually got engagement back! and the fuzzy little bee mascot was so cute TT TT

If you’re unfamiliar, I won’t go into too much detail but tl;dr: Buzzly was an indie art site that was run into the ground very fast after it was made, it’s still around but they added rules that essentially allowed bestiality and other similar concerning nsfw to be posted as well as some issues regarding the lead dev and the person who owns the site (don’t know if that’s changed but afaik it’s still in the same sorry state)

I’m very supportive of new sites and I’m currently trying them out just to see if I can recapture that lightning in a bottle from early dA days but it’s just something I noticed that still makes me sad to think about. I just haven’t experienced that since buzzly. unu I’m currently on inkblot and it seems very promising but I hope they add polls and more engagement options like that! I’ve also tried artfol and while it seems nice it feels so quiet. I don’t get much engagement there and there’s only really art activities to do, not socialization like journals or polls (things I like in my art site experience)

I feel  like I need to refocus my efforts, but I just don’t know how to do that. Should I just focus on the sites I know and am established on, despite some of the problems they have? (I no longer have a buzzly acc btw i mean like on da) Or should I just attempt to restart from scratch on places like Inkblot and hope for the best? I know it’s for the best to post on multiple sites but with my ocd / anxiety idk if i have it in me to do that all the time. I feel like i’m going in circles.

Since that dumbass Maybeplayingsmash has decided to make shit up about my positions on rape accusations... yet again... I think that this is a good time for me to repeat my actual stance on them. You can then go back to my old posts and see that my position back then is still consistent with what I’m saying now; but not with what Maybeplaying claims that I said.

So here’s the short version:

False rape accusations are rare.

False rape accusations made specifically to ruin someone’s life are even rarer, and often ineffective.

The "ineffective” part is especially true if you’re white and you don’t act like a sleazy predator.

In a public discussion, your judgment about “Is Person X guilty or not?” is up to your own discretion.

Longer version under the cut.

False rape accusations are rare.

There’s a lot of studies about rape accusations, but many of them don’t make a distinction between fake and unfounded. An unfounded accusation is when you accuse someone, but the cops think that there isn’t enough evidence to warrant an investigation; a false accusation is when you knowingly and deliberately accuse someone of a crime that they did not commit. Many of these studies blindly believe cops when they refused to investigate certain cases because “they were obviously false”... despite the fact that the cops refused to investigate, and therefore don’t actually know whether thoe cases are false or not.

(And yes, there IS a pretty big problem of cops refusing to investigate rape cases when instead they should have investigated them. In particular, there’s the “rape kit backlog” - thousands of rape kits that the cops refused to test. When they tried checking 1,600 rape kits in Detroit, they found that many of them contained DNA from 100 confirmed serial rapists. If those kids had been tested, maybe the cops would have identified those rapists sooner.)

Anyway, the study I use is David Lisak’s which states that only 6% of rape accusations are false. However, only a third of rapes are reported, so the real percentage of false rape accusations should be just 2% of rape cases - which is pretty similar to the percentage of criminal cases that are false.

False rape accusations made specifically to ruin someone’s life are even rarer, and often ineffective.

On top of being rare, false rape accusations tend to follow specific patterns.

In some cases, people falsely claim to have been raped in order to cover up something else - for example: someone accidentally gets pregnant, and to justify the pregnancy, they claim to have been raped. The issue with these accusations is that the accuser usually doesn’t accuse a specific person that actually exists; instead, they make up a fictional attacker, keeping the details intentionally vague. Between the vagueness and the lack of evidence (since the rape, you know, didn’t actually happen), it’s extremely unlikely that the rape will be reported to the police; get investigated; and actually result in someone being formally arrested.

Then there’s the cases where the accuser is a mentally ill person who only thought that someone raped them. Usually, when this happens, the accuser either has a history of compulsive lying (which will discredit them and paint them as an unreliable witness); or they were really victims of some horrible abuse, and they interpreted it as rape. In the first case, even if someone accuses you, you’ll be safe because the accuser won’t be believed; and in the second case, you are very unlikely to be accused unless you’re someone who goes around abusing disabled people.

Then there’s the “revenge” cases - the cases where someone actively hates you and deliberately decides to accuse you of raping them, even when you didn’t. The problem with these cases is that the accusation itself tends to be over-dramatic, with plenty of lurid details - because the accuser specifically wants to draw attention to the accusation as much as possible, in order to ruin your reputation. The problem is that these accusations often describe situations that, if they really did happen, they would leave tons of evidence behind; but since the accusation is, well, false, the evidence doesn’t exist. So when people look for evidence and don’t find any, they won’t think “Well, that was to be expected: most rapes don’t leave around much physical evidence". They will think: “Wait, she said that 20 men broke in her home and violent raped her, but there’s no evidence whatsoever, the house is still intact, none of the neighbors noticed anything? Something doesn’t add up.”

So, as you can see, false rape accusations aren’t exactly effective in terms of “Will your reputation be ruined?”. Even if someone deliberately decides to falsely accuse you, they are extremely unlikely to be believed. And society already has a huge bias against rape victims, so the odds are even more stacked in your favor.

The "ineffective” part is especially true if you’re white and you don’t act like a sleazy predator.

The second part is easy to explain. If you take a sleazy guy that doesn’t respect people’s sexual boundaries, and a guy that instead does respect boundaries and doesn’t harass people; and you accuse them both of being rapist, the accusation against the former will be much more likely to be accepted by third parties.

As for the first part, we’ll have to look at wrongful convictions - cases where an innocent person was jailed unjustly.  Specifically, we must look at race. Black people are much more likely to be unjustly accused, compared to white people; and if we look at only the people who have been unjustly accused, black people are much more likely to be jailed, compared to white people. So it’s clear that race absolutely plays a part in the false accusations issue - if you’re white, you’re much less likely to be falsely accused, and false accusations have a much lower chance of actually affecting you.

In a public discussion, your judgment about “Is Person X guilty or not?” is up to your own discretion.

In discussions about rape cases, pretty much 100% of the time, there’s at least one guy who yells “Innocent until proven guilty! You must wait until the trial is over!”. They try to shut down discussions about the suspect’s guilt, claiming that it would be unfair to judge someone as “guilty” without a trial.

But, strangely, when it comes to other crimes, this is much less ikely to happen: commenters are fine with allowing people to claim that the suspect is guilty, even if they disagree with the judgment. So what is going on here?

First of all, we must understand the concept that different contexts have different “standards of evidence”. Let’s take penal and civil trials, for example:

Penal trials follow an “innocent until proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt” standard. If there’s a reasonable chance that Person X is innocent, then the jurors must declare Person X to be innocent; if there’s no reasonable chance, then the jurors must declare Person X to be guilty.

Civil trials, instead, follow a “preponderance of evidence” standard. If the evidence in favor of Person X’s innocence is more abundant and compelling than the evidence in favor of their guilt, then the jurors must declare Person X to be innocent; but if the evidence of Person X’s guilt is more abundant - even if there’s still a reasonable doubt that Person X might be innocent - then the jurors must declare Person X to be guilty.

As you can see, to declare someone guilty in a civil trial, you need less evidence than in a penal trial. Why this disparity? Because civil and penal trials have different potential consequences for the accused. In a penal trial, the defendant can be jailed if proven guilty; but in a civil trial, the defendant cannot be jailed. The stakes in a penal trial are higher, so the evidence required to declare the defendant “guilty” are higher.

Let’s make another example. A cop wants to search your house; so how much evidence does he need to get a warrant? “Innocent until proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt”? No; he only needs probable cause that you committed a crime, and that your house might contain evidence of that. The cop doesn’t even have to prove your guilt; he only needs to prove that there’s a reasonable chance that you’re guilty.

So, what about public discussions? If you think that someone is a rapist, can you jail them? No. Can you take their money? No. Can you break into their house to look for evidence? No. The stakes, in a public discussion, are relatively low: the accused might lose their reputation. So the standard of evidence is ALSO pretty low: you have a lot of discretion to decide whether the accused is guilty or not.

Personally? Since false rape accusations are very rare, I lean towards believing the victim. And that’s why I encourage them to warn other potential victims about potential predators; and to go to the police to denounce the rape, if they want to. (Again: if you report a rape to the police, you have a very low chance of being believed by the cops, and a very high chance that you’ll be accused to be a liar and vilified. So I don’t think that rape victims should be blamed if they choose to not report their rapes; I blame the legal system for not doing its goddamn job and not properly investigating rape cases.)

BONUS: The absurdity of my accusers

My accusers are absurd. They outright admit that the accusations are false, but they think that I should consider them as true because - according to them - I declared that all accusations are true, and an accusation is enough evidence to justify sending someone in prison. So, if I get accused, I must treat the accusations as true and advocate in favor of sending me to jail, otherwise I’m an hypocrite. Right?

Except that it’s a strawman - I’ve never said that. Notice how, every time people accuse me of saying that, they NEVER bring any actual quote; that’s because they don’t actually have any actual evidence that I’ve used that argument. They accuse me of “hypocrisy” and “moving the goalposts” because I refuse to adhere to a standard that they - not me - have created.

And their claims don’t make any sense. I’ve never committed any sexual act on anyone; but according to my accusers, that doesn’t matter - they accused me of rape (a sexual act), so I should disregard my memory and unconditionally accept the accusations. I never went tothe USA; but according to my accusers, that doesn’t matter - they accused me of committing rape in the USA, so I should just accept it. According to my accusers, their rapist told them that “Aridara” was its tumblr blog; the idea of a rapist going out of its way to specifically reveal its tumblr blog to its victims is patently absurd - but, for my accusers, that doesn’t matter; not only I must believe that this really happened (even though the accuser don’t know anything else about the rapist - including their name, race, appearance, sex, or where/when the rape happened), I must unconditionally believe that the rapist is me just because it said “Aridara is my tumblr blog”.

Oh, and on top of that? The false accusations didn’t start when I said that, by default, I tend to believe rape victims when they claim that they’ve been raped. The false accusations started when I declared that, since I’m white and I don’t act like a predator, then a false rape accusation is very unlikely to cause me any consequence. THAT is what pissed my accusers off. So they decided to prove how false rape accusations can ruin people’s lives, by... falsely accusing me of rape, without ruining my life or even just causing me any meaningful consequence. Good job, guys.

Religous Trauma: Two Sides of a Coin

"Slouching Towards Galilee!"

Two Signs of the Same Coin:

Healthy Religious Exerperience

or

Religious Trauma

"The Greatest Commandment: "You shall love the Lord Your God with all of your soul, mind, and strength and Love your neighbor as yourself, there is no greater commandment than this!"

================================

In the past month or so there have been three young men, one who is 17, and the other two 20 and 21, who are homeless, and they each love sitting down with me and talking about their religious experience in and out on the streets, and the  pain and what I see as "religious trauma."

Presently I am taking a 60-unit CEU course entitled "Religious Trauma", and the course and these guys have brought much up within me, in which I am looking at the trauma I suffered and sometimes suffer in religion. I have found no therapists that understand religious trauma, for the most part, many are far away from religious experience.

And so I begin this by looking back through my life, to its very beginning, and within the context, I see both the very negative and the most life-giving experiences I have had. My faith now is very decentralized, and it has given a lot of power to my ministry. I see everyone as a child of God, without judgment and this comes from the experience of my relationship with Christ. There are two sides of the coin.

I have spent most of my life living under shame, a shame instilled in me since I was very young in the Church.

The Church taught me shame over my sexuality from masturbation to being queer; shame over depression; shame over questioning my theology; and the list continues.  The Church is excellent at teaching us about our sins but ignoring the cultural and social sins of our day. The Church often gives little grace!

I know of a church trying to work with homeless people who had "nice" clothing for them to change into, and a section of pews to sit in--similar to the slaves of the past. None go there.

Some organizations require people to hear preaching before they can eat a meal.

Flipping the coin over I find my coming in touch with the spirituality of a loving caring God, a God who called me to ministry and sustained me through the hell I went through in my early years. Through my experiences in the past and now I have learned to have compassion for myself. And from that learning greater, much greater compassion to others.

I always approach people now more compassionately, giving them compassion and entering into their suffering with them.

I have been known to be mad as hell at people who throw out the "gospel" to others; I remember when Zac died, at the funeral a group of Christians shook my hand, and said, "Too bad

he was not saved," that was painful; the same group sometime later was counseling a young man on how being gay was a sin, and this young guy sliced his testicles, when I took him to the hospital, they smiled and said, "We are praying for his salvation."

Jesus cared only for love and this is the Jesus I serve, love without judgment but compassion and grace:

"The Greatest Commandment: "You shall love the Lord Your God with all of your soul, mind, and strength and Love your neighbor as yourself, there is no greater commandment than this!"

Talking about who I am, I am omnist and a highly spiritual individual. I also use the law of assumptions and the law of affirmations, probably someday I will give a storytime dedicated to those. Any religion and belief is welcomed here though, it is a place of joy and respect <3 On a side note, I'd like to add that I am feminist so any form of misogyny is forbidden here

I like to represent myself as a fawn/deer (or as a character with similarities) because, from what I've been told, they are very similar to me in multiple says ! Both physically and aesthetically, actually. You see these cute, white spots on their fur? I have piebaldism, which causes a lack of melanin on some spots, like them lolsies this my biggest flex lmao

I don't intend to make it my job but if I have the opportunity to model, for pretty much anything, I will most likely accept. I already got some opportunities but had to decline them unfortunately because I was too young back then 😮‍💨

"I, too, have a destiny! This death will be ART!!"

✨ Introduction Post!! 🖌️✨

{Welcome to my account, my little bunnies! You can me Angel or Avery. I'm the owner of this beautiful acc. This post is my introduction and starter for my main muse and rules. When i am OOC - i use {} brackets, and prefer to use quotation marks and small paragraphs when IN character.}

{ OOC - I use They/He/It pronouns, while my muse uses She/Her pronouns. To make it simple; I am okay with basically any topic/genre of RP, as long as it isn't problematic and toxic. || i usually go for OC x canon stories or angst to add some spice to it, tho. || PEDOS/ZOOPHILES/PROSHIPPERS/TOXIC MF-ERS DNI!! || 16+ ONLY!! || }

Now. Onto my main muse!! Angel!

{Note: 2 of the images were screenshot redraws of Chicha. Angel has a similar facial shape but the same eyes as her.}

Name: Angel

Movie/Series: Emperor's New Groove Age: 18 years Gender: female Sexuality: Bisexual Pronouns: She/Her Height: 5"4' Body type: Curvy and chubby Personality: Hot-headed, sensitive, obsessive, clingy, artistic, (literally a mixture of her mother and she copies the emperor sometimes) Nationality: unknown Languages: English, practicing Spanish and Japanese

Voice claim; Brutus - The buttress

Mother: Yzma Crushes: Kuzco and Deo

Being born as the daughter of the Emperor's advisor (Yzma), Angel was kept a secret for nearly 5 years, but still treated like a daughter with love and affection, but also heartbreak and shouts of negativity. Angel was soon introduced to Kuzco to be his royal painter and 'best friend' when they were both around 6 years old. Kuzco didn't have much interest in her only because she was a servant and he was a literal child at the time. Yzma would discuss plans with Angel and try to force her to help out, but some failures happened. Angel has been verbally and emotionally abused by her mother but she still loved her with all her heart.

The older she got, Angel started catching on the manipulation, feeling like a tool. Confronting her mother at age 10, Yzma became more distant with Angel, but started to feel bad the more she was away from her. Trying to make up for her negative actions, Angel was already about 12-13 years old, and could see how similar Angel has become to her; hot-headed, loud, but holds a sense of fashion, and so forth, making this more difficult than it should be. At age 14, the two had made up a bit, tried to think of plans of actual mother and daughter hangouts and future plans…. But it became worse once again.

Yzma had paid more attention to Kuzco and tried to think what would be the best to get rid of him and make herself the Empress, Angel calling her out in a fit of rage and was… Kicked out.

Angel had to move away, and become a villager, restart her life, etc. She felt miserable, wishing her and her mother had a better relationship. Angel had started drinking shortly after moving into a village. She had been through a deep depression and caused harmed upon herself, physically and mentally. Her life (after the age of 15) slowly got better, but she still had a bad drinking habit. She met the village 'crazy boy', Deo, and the two clinged on to each other and connected right away, as if they were destined to meet.

The two would chat about anything, from Family, to weird thoughts, to even their crush on the emperor.

By the time they were both 18, Angel had gotten the summons… She was asked to be Kuzco's royal painter once more after he found out the truth about her. She agreed, but only if Deo was allowed to tag along. He was skeptical at first, but since Kuzco was a better person, he gave in and allowed it. Deo and Angel were going back and forth from the villages to the palace, living the dream.

{All information was copy and pasted from my notes - Hopefully it all makes some form of sense. I hope y'all like this and anyone who wishes to rp, feel free to comment or DM me.}

FTX’s sister hedge fund Alameda Research lost at least $190 million of its trading funds due to arguably avoidable scams, according to a former engineer at the firm. In an Oct. 12 post to X, titled “The Hacks,” former Alameda Research engineer turned whistleblower Aditya Baridwaj claims that the firm’s “breathtaking” agility led to “major security incidents” as often as every few months.Incident #1:An Alameda trader got phished while trying to complete a DeFi transaction by accidentally clicking a fake link that had been promoted to the top of Google Search resultsCost: $100M+Postmortem: Implemented extra checks on our internal wallet software— Adi (e/acc) (@aditya_baradwaj) October 11, 2023 In an example of one of the biggest exploits, Baridwaj claims a trader at Alameda once lost more than $100 million of the firm’s funds after clicking a malicious link promoted to the top of Google Search results. The trader was attempting to sign off on a DeFi transaction, said Baridwaj.In another example, he said Alameda was yield farming on a new blockchain of “questionable legitimacy” — a move that saw the trading firm eventually rack up losses of more than $40 million. Baradwaj wrote that FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried believed that the “single most important thing” for Alameda and FTX was their ability to move quickly. This ethos led to Alameda routinely ignoring industry-standard engineering and accounting practices for such firms, he said.“This meant virtually no code testing and incomplete balance accounting. Safety checks for trading would only be added on an as-needed basis,” wrote Baradwaj. “Blockchain private keys and exchange API keys were stored in plaintext in a file that several employees could access.”This led to another security incident that cost the firm millions after an old version of the plaintext files containing keys to Alameda’s wallets were leaked. The attacker transferred funds out of “some exchanges” and the incurred losses tallied up to more than $50 million, explained Baradwaj.These are just a few incidents - there's many more, including from before my time at the company.FTX had its own issues, including the MobileCoin fiasco that Gary recently testified about during the trial.— Adi (e/acc) (@aditya_baradwaj) October 11, 2023 He said that Alameda suffered through “many more” incidents of similar scope to the ones he’d described, but many of these were before his time at the company.The former engineer has been speaking publicly about the many faults of Alameda and FTX in the wake of their collapse in November last year, telling Cointelegraph how its founder Sam Bankman-Fried justified many of his “ridiculous” actions under the guise of an idealistic philosophy known as Effective Altruism.Baradwaj’s comments come amid former Alameda CEO Caroline Ellison taking the stand to testify against Bankman-Fried on the sixth day of his fraud trial. In the preceding days, a number of former colleagues including Adam Yedidia and Gary Wang have brought a wealth of new evidence against the former billionaire. Wang has admitted to writing in specific code that allowed for Alameda to trade with a near-unlimited line of credit from FTX, while Caroline Ellison has explained the intricate details of FTX’s alleged commingling of funds with Alameda.Bankman-Fried has pled not guilty to the charges brought against him and maintains his innocence in the ongoing trial.
