#just dont participate

[master-gatherer]

It's fascinating how in reaction to the crab day idea half my dashboard is like "Tumblr is awful do not give them one red cent let the motherfucker burn" and the other half is like "let's save the rec center 🙂"

#do crab day dont do crab day #itll be a nice boost to the site but like its been pointed out it wont completely solve tumblr's money woes #but also it is $3 for crabs #like... no one's asking you to drop big bucks on this #hell you can just say no #this is like how every year ao3 does their fundraiser and people come on to scream about how its a waste of money #and how you should be giving it to someone more worthy #as if those donation posts arent passing the same $5 around to get by #or when the importan blue checks came out #people spending $3 on crabs would probably spend that $3 on something equally dumb or not at all #sorry #just dont participate #and make plans to lift stakes when tumblr finally goes under/starts really sucking b/c theyre gonna keep doing shit like this #until they go under or turn a profit #thats capitalism #and even if we get our glorious communist revolution social media will probably not make it to the communes #locked it down since crab day originator found it and well its out that theyre a pro-life terf so 🤷 blocked #anyway congrats on reblogging a godless heathen #your idea was cute anyway #update: i had an idea and now its rebloggable again #fyi: i block hard 🙃

deeply refreshing to see someone critical of Swift who also like, genuinely likes her. Like i'm neutral to positive on her, but the online discourse has been absolutely rancid. flipping between "Taylor Swift has never done anything wrong ever and she's a fucking genius" and "Taylor Swift is the worst lyricist of all time and also a bad person" is exhausting, so thank you for like. nuance or something lmao

not to make it serious for a sec but i genuinely think that being able to like things that are bad is really important. like I think that it's an important skill to be able to look at something and see what you personally enjoy about it and then take a step back and acknowledge that objectively it's flawed. and to also be able to acknowledge that liking something isn't necessarily an identity or a moral stance. and i think that fandom space in general could really benefit from more people taking the time to learn how to do that. it's okay to like things that are bad

#people ask me sometimes why ill occasionally talk about something i like and then go 'but it's bad' and the answer is usually because it is #i love teen wolf. i love genshin impact. i love detective conan. and i fucking LOVE taylor swift. that doesnt mean theyre good #it just means i like them. and recognizing their flaws actually helps me better identify what i like about them! #it's like. in my mind bad > good is the x axis and i like it > i dont like it is the y axis yk. they're not mutually exclusive #tldr it's not that serious. we can all relax a little #irt taylor swift i do also think she has done some real harm to her fans in enabling them to deflect all criticism of her as misogyny #and i don't think it's fully the fault of these people who are parroting that response bc so much of her marketing has deliberately #reinforced this idea that to be a swiftie is to be a part of a sisterhood and that any attack on taylor is an attack on all of those women #who are in that in-group. when that's obviously not the case. but she's marketed herself as. for lack of a better term. 'girl music' #to the point where it makes her fans feel as though any criticism of the music or the woman responsible for it is an attack on their #personal experience of womanhood/girlhood/sisterhood/etc. and that's how you get all of thess bad-faith accusations of misogyny #i don't necessarily think this was her deliberate goal with her marketing tho because like. on first glance such a strong sense of communit #among fans sounds like a great thing. the friendship bracelets i got at the eras tour movie are really genuinely special to me. #but it does present a problem when your fans are unable to separate how they feel about the community and experience your music has fostere #from how they feel about you as a person. especially when you are a billionaire who absolutely CANNOT be above criticism in this economy #anyway. tldr i love taylor's music and i don't think swiftie hivemind is as deliberately malicious as it may seem #but it's obviously necessary to be able to take a step back and look objectively at what you're participating in. #anyway stream ttpd or don't idc <3 #taylor swift

After recent events, I ended up going back to the beginning to check things, because my first reaction will always be "wtf, this is shit, why would you do this" and my second reaction will always be "okay maybe that was a bit much, maybe he's not THAT bad, maybe has a good reason-

Okay.. that doesn't rly mean anything, maybe she's just worried kaito found something he shouldn't-

Okay.. okay this looks, well maybe he's just leaving some recordings in case kaito found something he shouldn't! It's not like they can hide it forever! The room is part of the house! Kaito lives in the house-

Excuse me... What did .. what did you say...? Wha

What do you mean "designed"?

What??? What do you MEAN "designed to open after 8 years"???

I have been angry since April 12th and I've reached a point where I don't even know what to feel anymore I don't even know what to tell y'all.

Like, wow, omg, movie reveals. Other than family relations, the other thing isn't exactly anything new. We've all read Midnight Crow. We saw Kaitou Corbaeu. We've been in denial until finally reaching acceptance. For me at least. And then we spend a few years bargaining, bc surely there's a good reason kaitos not in the know. That kaito has to be KID. Surely there's a reason? Right?

Right???

At this point we don't even truly know if Jii is in the know and was acting as planned out by the parents or not. Or if he's just like kaito. Tricked, lied to, played for fools. At the very least ginzo doesn't know, so there's that. Not sure how much that would help kaito when he inevitably finds out. Because he will. The fact remains that it's quite suspicious that Jii just so happen to choose to don the KID outfit and become KID to draw out toichis murderers exactly 8 years after toichis death. EXACTLY the same amount of time that was set for that trap door portrait to open to kaito.

There's a lot of implications to think about

#magic kaito #kuroba kaito #kuroba toichi #kuroba chikage #i don't remember jiis name #im still so mad i dont know what to rly do next other than just stew in the feeling #fortunately(???) one of my kinda fucked up fic idea that i scrapped kinda work perfectly with this gaslight gatekeep manipulation ass shit #rambling rambling rambling #rambles #ramblings #also no movie spoiler in tags and replies pls #i know all the spoilers #but i dont want to participate in untagged spoiler discussion on main #just keep it out of this post pls for the sake of people who somehow managed go not see any spoilers yet #im open to yap in dms tho lmao

Finally posting my contribution to @chainsaw-mewmew 's Winter Feast Zine!! I discovered an enjoyment working on collabs like this but I also gotta learn to socialize with people and not just lurk around...

And also learn to work big pictures for more than one day. Why rush things?

Day 4: Emotion/Comfort

If you're gonna lose hold of yourself and make your boss float because you love him very much then you have to make sure he lands safely!

[inkskinned]

not to romanticize my mental issues but sometimes having adhd is very useful because today during a meeting that could have been an email i kept thinking about crabs wearing small tophats and having little dancing parties and how they'd sound in tap shoes.

and when my boss was like "raquel what do you think?"

i was like "well, i think the others have made good points about this, of course, and i'd be happy to circle around later on it, but i'd love to take a moment and resonate with this before offering my own suggestion. i want to hear what others think before anticipating the client's needs."

and then i went back to not listening but this time it was imagining snails that joust.

#me: hehe funny #the hatemail: you should be fired immediately the fact you are scum enough to NOT LISTEN #in a SINGLE MEETING #that was about a project you DONT WORK ON #means that you are EVIL and SUCKING UP TIME #like bro .... idk how to tell u this sometimes people be in meetings they don't need to be in #i only got asked to participate bc there's an element of the project that resembles #a piece i wrote a while back #and i know this element exists bc #we've already had a meeting where i told them what i did how i did it and what i suggest #so there's nothing else for me to add really #also im close with all the coworkers who are working on that element #and they just gchat me their questions #idk how to tell u this but someone zoning out in a single 30 minute meeting where they LITERALLY #don't work on that project ? #that's just fucking anti-capitalism baby #i was being a revolutionary

Happy Valentines, Akira. Happy Valentines, Asshole.

If you can’t read what Akechi’s secondary inner-dialogue says cause I obscured it too much behind his regular dialogue, here’s a transcription in panel order: Hello, you fucking- Ah- Hello, Akira! Fuck off, why should I tell you- Just a soda- there’s a new flavor.

I don’t want your shitty gift. Oh- haha! You’re so sweet.

I hope I choke. They’re lovely, thank you.

Like hell. Likewise. There’s no way it’s just a coincidence. Still though, it’s a funny coincidence.

#p5 #akeshu #akechi goro #kurusu akira #wow- me?? posting a valentines comic... actually on?? valentines????? wack. absolutely wack #it's a short one! I purposefully tried to keep it short. it was a challenge and it still ended up being 3 pages. but i blame my canvas size #also in case u can't see what akira is holding out to akechi: theyre chocolate covered strawberries on sticks! #i saw them irl and was like oh god i want those. i am going to project that feeling on my favorite characters so help me god #and now! here we are! but my shitty-ass coloring & line quality make it hard to discern them so. sorry about that lmaooooo #ANYWAY i don't do enough post-maruki stuff so. i made this one a little bittersweet. :) #why did i put akechi's scarf in a bow? honestly i dont know! i think i saw some art a while ago that did that too and i thought it was cute #well. plus i guess there's the symbolism of 'akechi being alive and reciprocating your feelings (however involuntarily) IS a gift' part #hence that hes wrapped up in a bow. like a present. :) #also god. the first panel is supposed to be akechi's reflection in a vending machine window. I could NOT get it to look right #so for reference!!! just so you guys understand!!!!!! thats what that panel is supposed to be!!! he is NOT in fact a ghost. (sigh) #hope you enjoyed and had a lovely valentines!! for my part i have eaten nothing but sweets today and hoo boy will that have been a mistake #ALSO in terms of the audience-participation comic...hopefully coming soon. if i can ever gain the will to draw it. #but at least tumblr has polls now so i can do the audience-choose-y bit without needing to use a separate website! so thats good i guess #anyway anyway anway thanks for listening to me ramble if you made it this far! have a lovely rest of your day and hopefully see u again soon

[autosadist]

people at work will tell me some workplace drama shit and ill be like "your secret is safe with me :)" then their secret is safe with me because being the person who knows everything and says nothing in that environment makes you the office babyboy

#dont ever participate just listen wordlessly i promise

[rakkuntoast]

nonetheless i think its sweet how the qsmp members want the inactive players to come back to the point to go out of their way to plan lore guides/museum so the ones interested in joining are able to catch up

also hoping to remind the ones that arent as interested in lore that you dont have to participate or have a big role if you dont want to like i think antoine, etoiles, philza, vegetta and tazecraft at some point (and i think felps too? i dont watch his pov as much sorry :( ) are one of the best examples of this. they are the ones that i've seen that participate the least in lore and there's nothing wrong with that, everyone should be allowed to play the server as they want

#qsmp #qsmp meta #i know phil is planning something with his character but he's generally pretty uninvolved with lore #tazecraft is weird they're just walking caricatures #vegetta is just winning the idgaf war #of course the ones now participating in the elections are getting more involved but generally before it they didnt have much going on #<-lorewise and thats totally fine! i personally prefer povs like that. its down to people's preferences #not including inactive members of course #anyway if i dont come across as clear blame the language barrier im not good explaining shit <3

[dizzybizz]

magma doods from the past few days bc its basically all i have been able to get done

Steddie Week Day 1: Hunger / Pining / Somebody to Love by Queen @steddie-week

It's right there. It's just inches away, hanging off the edge of the popcorn bowl, like when Steve had set the bowl between them on the couch, he couldn't be bothered to fully move his hand away. Or, more likely, he was keeping a loose grip on it so that it wouldn't go flying off the couch, spilling popcorn across the floor like last time. (Eddie maintains his innocence; it's not his fault he's fidgety and nervous around Steve, so really, it was Steve's fault for, like, existing or something.)

Steve's hand is inches away and near the popcorn. He could reach out, just brush his pinky against Steve's, all nonchalant-like. If it brought about a negative reaction, he could always brush it off as reaching for the popcorn blindly and misjudging the distance.

This shouldn't be that difficult. He's held Steve's hand before! Or, well, Steve held his hand, and he didn't exactly hold back but that was on account of the three-day coma, and then later because he didn't have the strength to. Sure, once he was fully awake and aware, Steve quit holding his hand, but he knew. And by knew, he does mean he asked Dustin if he hallucinated that bit and Dustin was delighted to tell him, no, not a hallucination, Steve couldn't be pried from his hand except by a medical professional.

He's seen Steve hold other people's hands, so he knows Steve's a hand holding kind of guy, even platonically (he does not want this to be platonically, but he'll take what he can get). Steve holds Robin's hand all the time. Most of the time it's because Robin is overthinking something and Steve is acting as an anchor to reality, but Eddie's certain the lack of hand holding outside of (minor) crises is because Robin isn't one for hand holding.

Steve's held Dustin's hand, usually when they've picked a movie that perhaps shouldn't have included the younger ones of their group. He holds El's hand all the time. She'll just walk over and grab it, linking their fingers and just stand or sit in silence by each other. Eddie doesn't ask about it, even as he's vibrating on the inside to know how that habit formed, and why.

And it's not like Steve shrinks away from touch in general. People are hanging off of him all the time, between impromptu dogpiles and piggyback rides around the pool, someone always seems to be in Steve's space, leaning on or otherwise touching him. A hand rest on his forearm while Nancy chats with him, Argyle leaning his whole body against Steve with an arm slung around him as they chat and laugh about who knows what, Max having no problems manhandling Steve to the ground so she and El can use Steve as a human pillow for a summertime nap in the shade.

Eddie, himself, has rarely dared to reach out, though. For all the bravado of that fateful spring break, with as much as Eddie leans into Steve's space, he can't bring himself to touch. Touching might destroy him. To get to reach out, to touch, even just the brush of Eddie's fingertips against Steve's arms might break him. He knows he'll crave it so much more than he does now.

And oh, does he crave to touch. Holding Steve's hand is the end goal, but he's not sure he can even work up to that if the thought of brushing his pinky against Steve's is almost working him into a panic attack. It's just him and Steve, watching Star Wars on a Friday night.

No big deal.

Except it's a huge deal.

Eddie's wanted to hold Steve's stupid hand since he first noticed him. Steve was a freshman, and Eddie a sophomore. He didn't notice him right away. It was after Christmas break. The fire alarm had gone off and everyone was gathered on the football field, awaiting the news about if it was a real fire, or someone smoking in the bathroom. Eddie was looking for George, his only friend at the time, and his eyes had landed on Steve at just the right time. Snow lightly dusted his hair, and his head was thrown back in a genuine and loud laugh, so loud and genuine that Steve ended up making a snorting noise that startled Steve and the guys around him. Eddie watched as Steve's face turned pink with embarrassment before he doubled over, laughing at himself. His friends followed suit and Eddie couldn't stop staring.

(Never mind the whole bit where Eddie's crush waned as Steve became mean, King of Hawkins High and whatnot. Also never mind how it surged back during Eddie's second senior year, Steve's only senior year, when they were in a lot more classes, and Steve wasn't friends with Tommy H and Carol anymore, and also more subdued. Not enough to forgive his past transgressions, but enough that Eddie could allow himself to think of Steve as cute again without too much shame.)

It's a miracle, Eddie's sure, that he's even on this couch with Steve at all. The journey they've been through just to get to a point where Eddie can pine from eight inches away instead of afar.

He glances down at the popcorn bowl again, finds it half empty. Watches as Steve reaches for another handful of popcorn with the hand not holding the bowl -honestly, you spill the popcorn once- and brings to up, shoving the whole handful in his mouth at once. Steve's cheeks puff out like a chipmunk's for a moment before he furiously chews and swallows, like some heathen. That was a full hand of popcorn!

Eddie's in love.

His eyes dart down to Steve's hand again. He can do this. He can. He will, in fact. See, just watch. Arm lifted. Moving sideways, it's less than four inches now. Three. Two.

Aaaaand now he's got a handful of popcorn he doesn't actually want to eat. He cradles the palmful of popcorn with the hand that betrayed him and uses his other to pick up one piece at a time and eat them slowly.

Tastes like buttery sadness.

The movie probably has twenty minutes left and Eddie has spent the movie hyping himself up for nothing. He's not brave enough to do it.

He wipes his hand on his jeans and reaches for the bowl again. He might not be brave enough to reach out and touch, but he is brave enough to hold on to the bowl, an imitation of Steve's hold. Their hands are barely an inch apart this way and Eddie supposes that will be enough for now.

He tries for 5 minutes to focus on Star Wars, but then something brushes his pinky. Unthinking, Eddie just pushes back, and that must have been all the confirmation needed, because then Steve is hooking his pinky over Eddie's.

Eddie, ever subtle, whips his head sideways to look. To confirm. Then his eyes fly up to Steve, who is looking back. For a moment Steve looks like he's been caught doing something wrong and his finger twitches in Eddie's grip, like he's going to pull back. Eddie tries to tighten his pinky with Steve's and give him a small smile.

Steve returns the smile, small and almost shy, before turning back to the TV.

Eddie does the same, even as butterflies erupt in his chest, and he feels like he's going to throw up or faint.
