Ok, none of you know what's going on. None of you understand why so many women and young streamers are stepping forward right now. None of you understand why this has to be public.
Multiple large streamers have used their fame, influence, and money to manipulate and abuse those they see as below them. So long as they continue to have fame, influence, and money, this cycle will not end.
This is bigger than just individual cases of sexual assault or other abuse. This is a break down of a much larger problem within the entertainment industry.
These women are telling stories about very powerful men in this space. They are sharing stories of abuse and manipulation. This is very scary for them—it could ruin their careers or lives.
Stop saying "they should have handled this privately." This isn't a private matter. So long as these men have power, they will hurt more women. They aren't sorry. They won't play fair.
By trying to stay silent and bury these accusations, you are ensuring these women never know peace. You are ensuring that more women get hurt.
One day your boss will assault you, and all the men in your life will blame you for waiting as long as you did to speak about it. They will find any reason to blame you. They don't want to get rid of your boss. They hope that one day, they can assault a woman just like you.
This is fucking serious. This is real life. This isn't just some fucking fandom drama that we can bury and move on from. These are real life issues that require real meaningful discussion.
Stop trying to discredit these women just because your streamer is in trouble. You are part of the fucking problem.

[ID: a pixel art gif of Five and Delores sitting on rotting lounge chairs by a pool in the apocalypse. Delores, made human by FIve's perspective, is swinging her legs, and Five is reading a book. There are four colors; yellow, hot pink, lime green, and blue. Music notes emerge from a radio. The sky is completely obscured by yellow, shifting clouds. End ID]
sometimes a guy has gotta have a vacation, even in the middle of the apocalypse.

Six years ago we sat in an old button factory in a tiny corner of London, slept little, sang until our voices croaked, played, plonked and laughed until we cried. It culminated in our first album Love Run. It was exhausting and exhilarating and started us on this wild Devilish journey together. In celebration of its release, we are proud to announce original lyric artworks of our first three albums, painted by Madeleine Hyland in ink and watercolour and printed on 310gsm Giclée museum-and-archival-quality art paper. Head on over to our website for more details and stay tuned for further fun bits and bobs to be released later this year. Sending you all our love Dear Hearts. Happy pride to all the bright and burning colours shining out there. M+J x x

Next project: the starry purple quilt! I know this fabric stack is yellow, bear with me lol
So far I’ve gotten like 2/3 of the initial ironing done, and a little less than half of the fabric cutting for the stars. Each star has one 6.5” square and eight 3.5” squares. Then I’ll be cutting out five or six 6.5” squares of each purple fabric (I have 17 and need 93 purple squares)
So, all together, that’s 27/128 squares cut out so far! Wish me luck lol

So Bailey has the whole "must not fuck the orphans" sort of thing going on with them, yeah?
I wonder if Harper has a "must not fuck the patients" thing going on with them, too.
Like, they're obviously still a creep to all the other patients, but since they have a fixation on PC I wonder if you're the first patient Harper has genuinely wanted to fuck in a while.

Hm... I haven't listened to the teen talk yet but I heard what Will had to say regarding the Sparrow-Normal situation and... Hm... I was apprehensive about this teen talk for exactly this reason so I suppose said apprehension was well-placed lol. I have thoughts aplenty (much of which is more on the meta end of things tbh) but frankly I haven't had the energy to write anything on the larger scale regarding the show for a while... Hm, maybe eventually. I guess this is mostly just a vent post lol.

With (credible) rumors about tumblr soon selling its data to midjourney for AI training, it truly is a peculiar situation for everyone on this website.
Personally, it's a choice between yeeting all my art off the platform à la twitter or keep it, but with some asterisks attached for the future.
For one deleting it all won't actually delete the post (and thus art) itself, due to how tumblr works.
Even now glazing everything in post is useless, because edits don't carry over in existing reblogs.
So deleting the blog is mostly off the table.
But what now?
It's a bit hard to say for me. As I do have some attachment to this hellsite. That's why even when I was mostly on twitter, I kept being somewhat active here
But as time goes one, the good will I had keeps getting stretched and now this is the final straw for me.
Obviously, going forward, every picture on this blog will be glazed, nightshaded when the webversion is out.
Sadly, I think this also means the update frequency will decrease a lot, as glazing will add a not insignificant amount of time to the posting process.
I'll also start using tumblr less, either migrating to other websites like bluesky etc. or just become less active on social media as a whole.
I'll still be in the qijiu week discord though, so you can find me and my scattered art there too.
Otherwise, when I remember, I post occasional stuff on ko-fi as well.(even have a sorted gallery of sorts, so it's a nice place to have things sorted)
I'll link all those places below.
Anyway I thank everyone who has read so far and the support I got on tumblr.

non BL bluesky (x)
QiJiu Week Server (x)
ko-fi (x)

Well, Milgramblrgram, you have spoken! This is what you wanted, wasn't it?
I've doled out my judgement on Nott, Kyanako, and Waivy! You can rest easy knowing that I took care of everything 😌 And I do believe there was something else that you all voted in favor of, hm...?
You are very welcome, Wardens! I look forward to continuing to be a team 🐺

“why is no one talking about [topic that was discussed to death two years ago]?????”
hey. if you want to talk about something… just talk about it. asking why no one else is talking about it is still not talking about it. if you have something to say then say it!!!
