[frostbite-the-bat]

talked w/ a friend about this and wanted to post something similar yesterday after a convo i saw also

about people criticizing ttcc / ttcc fans for just... being cog fans? being cog centric? usually coming from people who only like the toons.

and everyone likes what they like! it's okay! but saying that people who like the cogs are horrible and support the bad things they do, is just blatantly wrong. i thought we knew that enjoying villainous and morally Bad / grey characters is... okay? it doesn't mean you support what they do. it's interesting to explore these topics.

i've seen many people just... paint anyone who likes the cogs as horrible because they're "apologists of x and y" and... i dunno. rubs me the wrong way! you do have a point and recognize the cogs do bad things, but liking them as characters means nothing about who you are as a person.

and this is not to say that people who are in toontown for the toons are bad. hell! they are right this IS toontown. i may be on the cog liker side but i like the toons! maybe ocs more than the npcs - mostly because i like my friends and the sheer creativity the toons can bring out!!

SO what i wanna say... i dunno. let's not point fingers...? let's have fun in a goofy cartoon game together??? also complaining about people liking VILLAIN ROBOTS on TUMBLR is kind of funny to me. do you realize where you are. but then again a lot of this i see on discord and in-game as well since i avoid things on tumblr... i am a sensitive little fella i avoid misty fight bc of One Really mean "Critic" guy i saw there and i have been shivering in my bootsies since. so you get me

but like yes ttcc is more cog centric but... that's okay? things could be written better and i still wanna speak on it, and i do thing the toons deserve attention and better writing... but the fact it focuses on the cogs isn't... bad? if you don't like how con centric it is you can go play ttr...? god forbid people have fun and explore the villain's side of things...? i'm not saying either toontown server is better or worse than the other... and everyone can like their own things!!

but like... people will just like the cogs and that's okay and it doesn't make you bad. let's all be friends okay? both sides may be going at each other's necks in-game and the cogs in fact do horrible things - but it's what makes them fun, and it gives the toons things to do in the game!! but we don't gotta !!!!!!!! i may be really sarcastic and sometimes mean in private but like that's me just privately sassing, deep down i think people should just... y'know..? enjoy things.

so yea that's the guzma / cathal thought of today. toon people cog people both people are all awesome as fuck and you keep doing what you're doing i love you toontown isn't toontown without you

#anyways omg god forbid ppl are cog kissers on the robot kissing website /silly #but like!! tt/r may not be for everyone and tt/cc may not be for everyone and THATS OK!! ur not gonna like everything!! #like i accepted tt/r isnt for me but its mostly bc they dont show cog health specifically and i struggle with these things but !! i #heard they are updating that so i might be able to play without getting bored / frustrated again ^^ i havent played properly in yeaaaars #i will still prefer clash bc fixation and?? i LIKE ROBOBTS....! #but tewtow is tewtow its all swag. the least toony thing u can do is bully someone for Liking Robobt. be niceys #like ya i admit im not perfect i also dont like people andhave so much one sided beef and i am sensitive to so many things and i complain #in private but at the end of the day its to make myself feel better and i KNOW to not engage and look away and work on feeling better #bc this stuff does Heehoo upset me bc Mental Health Probulem. but i know everyone should and can do their own thing and have fun #i may complain about (redacted ship) all the time and i dont get it at all but...? bro... just have fun... be free. im not here to stop you #im just not gonna interact as i should. good for both of us! joyous world! happy that ur happy!!!! #why complain abt ppl just Enjoying Cogs like that though................................................ do you not like fun #this is not at anyone specific #my friend did show me tags of a post anonymously #and i vague a person whos name i dont know ingame like A YEAR AGO #and a convo what happened in a server a while back. but its not anyone specific i just wanted to like. speak my thoughts #lets be frense... and if not thats okay lets not argue either then we all stay in our lanes

I go by she/her because that's what I'm used to, but gender isn't really something that important or meaningful to me personally. I use they/them when referring to myself, but I have no problem with others using any other pronouns (though I'm not used to neopronouns, so perhaps not those).

this could probably be referred to as agender.

which means...

I am a 𝗤𝗨𝗜𝗡𝗧𝗨𝗣𝗟𝗘 𝗔 𝗕𝗔𝗧𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗬

#aromantic asexual agender my name starts with A and so does my birth month #that was the whole joke but this turned out to be more introsepctive on my gender than anything #this has been my conclusion for a while. but i still call myself cis because i'm not trans‚ not really #i'm not enby. i may be agender(?) but despite that lack of gender-ment i still present and am fine with presenting as female #there's no dysphoria or euphoria #i'm firmly of the stance that the reason lots of people are transphobic is because they're on the agender spectrum #and as such gener doesn't really matter to them. and so when people make a big deal out of it it feels weird #also: bigotry #so #i suppose this counts as a coming out post #i still prefer she/her since it's easier to tell if people are referring to me in particular‚ but feel free to use they or he for me #he/him feels a tad weird but mostly because it's mostly assuming strangers on the youtube who will use that for me #but you can do whatever #existenceunrelateds #coming out post #??? #you already knew i was queer‚ it's not too shocking. and i'm still going with cis‚ don't think i'll stop doing that anytime soon #why am i being so introspective‚ this is a joke about calling me an AAAAA battery #𝗤𝗨𝗜𝗡𝗧𝗢𝗨𝗣𝗟𝗘 𝗔 𝗕𝗔𝗧𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗬

#photos of my guitar my dad posted to his blog years back when he bought it #it’s the most beautiful guitar in the world. it feels warm and alive to play #as you can see in the first two pics it used to have a newer pickup installed on the bottom. luckily he found an era appropriate online #it’s from 82 if you were curious #it says squire on the headstock but it was made on the fender line. they bought squire out and swapped in the name soon after this #but he got it a little cheaper than it was worth at the time because people aren’t as autistic as him and don’t know about production lines #basically it wasn’t brand name #basswood body and dark rosewood on the neck 😋✌️ #it’s actually a replication of a ‘62 model! which was 20 years old at the time. mines now twice that. isn’t that incredible #i actually saw a modern fender replication of this exact model in an op shop yesterday #for more or less exactly how much this was bought for #dad finished his blog post by saying he thinks this is better made than the original. and despite not knowing the og i’m inclined to agree #people in the comments of his post are saying that this era was supposed to be something special. hehe. they’re right #i’ve played many guitars. i own this one because my dad collects them and he let me try them all out #and i have a lot of friends who play guitar and ive hung out with them to do so #and i’ve never felt one like mine before or since. it’s so obviously beautiful #when i picked it out i hadn’t played much but i knew right away how good it was. i prefer strat bodies because i can hug my torso around #them without getting poked like a tele and the necks are thinner than acoustics (small hands. bad) #unless we’re talking parlour #love a wee parlour. pa has a little one he got for 30 bucks that’s one of my favourites of his #he’s insanely good at finding deals #he fixes them all up #anyway. the body feels #how would you even describe it #heavy. and alive. warm and wet and still full of sap #i feel like it’s breathing #it’s sort of the only thing that motivates me to be better. i could cry just thinking about it. i want to be good enough to play it

P. Baxter and the birth of Penny Halliwell.

"Where was I born?"

"Boston. Hotel room. Breech."

(Penny & Prue, 1x17)

Prudence Johnson, née Baxter, grew up with her cousin, Pearl Russell, on Prescott Street following the death of Pearl's mother defeating the Nexus unleashed in the 1906 earthquake. Despite having a happy childhood together, Prudence was forced to kill Pearl in 1924 in order to protect her from evil.

Not coping well with the trauma, Prudence and her husband, Gordon, decide to leave San Francisco and return to the beginnings of Prudence's wiccan heritage: Salem, Massachusetts. Here, the couple finally get to spend a few years of blissful married life together, and Prudence falls pregnant in the fall of 1926.

Deciding she wants her child to be born in the presence of the powerful Nexus her family reclaimed for good, Prudence and Gordon prepare to return to Prescott Street, traveling to Boston in order to board the train to Chicago, then to San Francisco. Their return is delayed, and during their stay in Boston, Prudence, despite her advanced pregnancy, can't help but save an innocent, named Penelope.

Penelope decides to visit Prudence to thank her for saving her life, and finds her alone in her hotel room, in labor. Penelope, fortunately a midwife-in-training, recognizes the baby is presenting breech and is able to help Prudence safely deliver the baby. While Prudence would never conceive again due to the difficult birth, she is grateful to Penelope for saving her baby's life, and names her daughter after her - Penelope Johnson.

#i never make edits because im so bad at them #but ive had this story constructing itself in my mind for weeks and i know ill never write it #so i had to find some way to get it across #i know a lot of people call p baxter priscilla but i honestly prefer prudence? #like i picture her as a person who would always use people's full names #so she's exclusively prudence not prue and she would always call her daughter penelope even if everyone else called her penny #anyway this is the canon in my mind now it makes sense #p bowen is still around too but she doesn't come in to this storyline at all hence why she isnt mentioned #p. baxter #penny halliwell #charmededit #charmed 1998 edit #you ever proof read a post after posting it

”I don’t want to give Jehovah’s organization a black eye so I have to suffer in silence. Oh the pain! The pain!”

Mhm. Have you ever considered that Jehovah’s organization has given you not one, but two proverbial black eyes, broken ribs, and a concussion over the years; and maybe you should expose them for the abusers they are, if only enough to get yourself help to heal from the abuse you’ve experienced? You’ve got Stockholm syndrome bad, and you’re making it everyone else’s problem. You cared about your abusers so much that you abused me in their name, just because I wanted no part of their organization. Even if I didn’t seek out apostate resources, I wouldn’t have needed them to make my decision to leave because of how much you vented about them to me since I was about five years old. Did you just expect me to stay here and take the abuse like you did? I’m better than that; I’m better than you.

#exjw #ex cult #I woke up and he was venting about it to my mom very loudly so I just went “fuck that” #I could’ve went somewhere in the house to eat but I specifically chose the 20 degrees F screen room so that both of them know #I’d rather freeze than hear one more second of his venting knowing that he is still refusing to get help #Mom wants to watch the convention? Glorious. I’m not leaving my room until he’s done talking. I will not be her deus ex machina #I will not be her excuse to end the conversation so she can watch the convention with me #She can sit there and listen to it; and maybe she’ll grow some reasoning ability and realize #the religion she so piously subscribes herself to is splitting us apart and killing her husband #and maybe she’ll begin to take his triggers seriously and not make passive-aggressive remarks about how she wants to listen #to all the comments and not mute it when an elder who sexually harassed him begins speaking #and maybe my dad will grow some common sense and realize that continuing to go to meetings will ensure he is in a state of trauma #for all eternity #and maybe — just maybe — they will realize that everything they read in my diaries was right #and that they were absolutely positively 100% in the wrong for screaming at me about their contents #and apologize for what they’ve done to each other and to me #But that’s wishful thinking because [first name] “I’m more stubborn than you” [last name] will hold out until it kills him #and my mom is ex-Catholic and convinced the JWs are entirely truthful just because she prefers the possibility of death over hellfire #You can’t make this shit up #I live in a madhouse with crazy people

you would think considering how much it loves sleeping that my body would, yknow, sleep when i ask it to. or even just when it has barely slept in days and im trying so hard to sleep

#the bin #uugghhhh i woke up at 1pm today bc my stupid idiot body refused to go to sleep at a reasonable time even tho i was alreday so sleep #deprived. i have to work at 6:30 tomorrow morning :/ so i guess i wont be sleeping till then bc i still have to clean stuff and shower #maybe maybe maybe ill get a nap in but idk. bleh. i hope after i get home my stupid body will sleep. its gonna have to bc i work 7 hours the #next day so i cant do that too sleep deprived. i really really hope i dont have to :( hhhh #i wanted so bad to get high last night mosty bc my body has been refusing to sleep this past week but my sister n her boyfriend didnt come #over so i wasnt able to get more edibles :( or boxes for packing. hhh. i need to move so soon! i have no idea what day its even gonna be yet #i badeky have an idea of how much its gonna cost either. they finally gave me a gas cost estimate afeyr ive been asking for 3 weeks #hhh. well. whatever. i only have 4 more shifts. im kinda sad tbh. i really like working here. my coworkers are so nice #tomorrow is probs the last time ill ever see my fav coworker. shes so nice. shes so nice she used he/him for me and calls me orb #i just mentioned the name in passing once after i changed my pronouns on my nametag and she noticed and she remember! #and before she used it for me she stopped and asked if i was comfortable with it or if i wanted to keep it private. i have never EVER met #another cis person who would even think to ask that. most cis people dont understand why you would care. shes like. the nicest person ive #ever ever met. why did i have to find such a great place to work in minnesota? well. even if i am super tired tomorrow morning itll probably #be ok. butbi really would prefer not to be. #i dont know why i havent been able to sleep properly. bleh. i do liek what edibles do to me its a fun time but its kinda annoying that i #cant use them very casually for sleep or pain. they incapacitate me for 14 hours minimum. #well. at least no matter how stressed i am abt everything. i will definitely be elsewhere in 18 days max. should be less than that. #i will miss this job and these coworkers but i am relived that i wont have to go to work for awhile. esp with this tooth pain. #and im so excited to be able to draw again! im glad im moving a month before artfight bc itll give me time to get shit prepped #i wanted so bad to participate last year but i wasnt able to come evn close to finishing any attacks bc i was too tired from working

i joined a local lgbt+ choir and this is momentous mostly because it has involved me voluntarily going to an after-work event. like i went to work and then by choice left my house again. on the same day. like a person with energy would. unprecedented

#talking #ive been applying to a lot of jobs that involve doing evenings and on the one hand i need a new job very much #on the other hand noooo my choir #this is also my first time using preferred name + pronouns irl with people who arent like preexisting friends #interesting. uncomfortable. maybe good

[chaoticwholesome]

fascinated by the fact that i have changed all my work info (email slack etc) to reflect my preferred name and they're just... seeing it on their screens and still calling me my legal name anyway?? hello??? can anyone hear me????

#at college it's literally SO EASY to just get people to switch. WHAT is the reading comprehension #in college i literally have to have my legal name in all my accounts and they'll still at least call me my preferred one?? #granted i didn't explain to some folks outright why i use the name but if the gal who changed my name on the system for me understood #then like.. not inferring is just frustrating

[sobecomesomethingelse]

maybe paige’s god’s name should be vaughan, since one could make the argument that vaughan was the seed of the wound tree

#or maybe more like paige’s losing vaughan Like That #was the seed #the silt verses spoilers #silt verses spoilers #i have a lot of feelings about vaughan #do you ever think about the fact that they were so important to both paige and carpenter #but they’ve never talked about them like as far as we know never even spoken their name since they died #vaughan who was so kind so invested in the people around them #so SMART like they got the fuck out of that hogie stand and left the damn country #and then the foreshadowed jaws snapped shut #i’m sure it was all in the contract #i say through clenched teeth #it’s definitely not the same as being fucking burned alive at a work function but i do live in a right to work state #and i used to work at a law firm this so i yeah i read my contract #and if you do you know there could in fact come a day when they decide to make use of you #targeted layoffs to make the numbers go up are like. again preferable to being BURNED ALIVE #but given the choice i would prefer to not face the threat of either of these things actually

[pluto-boy]

i think more people need to talk about how their past identities echo into the present and how sometimes it's good to embrace those memories with open arms. i am a cumulation of every lived experience i've lived through; i am shaped by memories

#this post was brought to you by your local trans guy who used to be a he/him lesbian and is now coping with the memories of it all #i still go by ate and prefer feminine compliments bc of this #like #let's be real here this isn't talked about enough for trans youth on the internet bc we specifically push out the notion of suffering #in order to get cis people to sympathize with us and give us basic human decency and respect our names and pronouns #but like. people transition out of happiness #i was happy as a girl. i was happy as a lesbian. it just made me *happier* to be a guy #you're allowed to live a life that makes you happy. you don't need to validate your choices with grief #and bc i transitioned out of happiness like. that means i'm able to look back and not see my past tainted by grieving #my he/him lesbian arc was my peak im ngl i was punk i was buff i still had long hair and it looked Good #now i'm bullied by teenagers for my job

being in charge of a 19 year old is such a mood though thats me anytime im out with my old ancient elderly(18-19) friends

YES LOL

#I’m so used to being in charge of people lol #whether it’s siblings or younger cousins or alsgajsgajg #all the adults in my life see me as the Responsible One so XD #which… I mean #compared to my younger siblings… #yeah I’m really freaking responsible lol #my brother gets into trouble and my sister encourages him to get into trouble #I am the one person who can Stop Them #and my younger cousins are worse lol #and this specific 19 year old… oh boy #the idea of him being in charge is slightly terrifying #ask #yukeet tag #(if there’s a name you’d prefer to be called just let me know :D) #also your asks are a DELIGHT oh my goodness

Trans kiryu is a genuinely funny hc because like trans majima is like oohh angst ohh she has to fight to be accepted she has to deal with people making fun of her for being a man in a dress she has to take into account her position and social standing and kiryu is literally just kiryu forever because the universe loves him too much to ever force him into a situation unless its to go to prison in which case hes like yayyy i love jail yayy yayyy

#Yakzua loveblog #im just talking to myself you guys dont need to read anything #in fact dont read this im going to talk about transphobic nishiki again anyway #my transphobic nishiki hc is the most important one to me because. like we all need to have some transphobic people in our lives #i do think that nishiki calls him ‘kiryu’ even though theyre best friends forever because when nishiki will always accidentally say his #deadname instead of ‘kazuma’ even though i know that nishiki is literally the one who gave him the name kazuma to make fun of kiryu for #thinking hes a boy and it just kind of stuck but nishiki eventually stuck. with calling him kiryu because thats how he prefers to be called #they are bestfriends for a reason .... and nishiki is the only one kiryu will let be transphobic towards him because theyve known each other #for forever and he knows he means no harm by it like he will still hit him but nishiki takes it in stride because its their thing and its #never not funny to make kiryu annoyed like for anyone else its an uncrossable line but once a month nishiki will lead kiryu into the womens #section to shop for new clothes and kiryus like Somehow i always knew you wore womens jeans and nishikis like HEY !!!! #but as kids they were always very cute because theyre always together and you can never really tell whos following who because it seems like #theyre on the same wavelength until nishiki realises that life is so much easier when youre working smart so he went to work on his INT stat #while kiryu never stopped being a wild animal like hes literally some sort of monkey to me sorry for dehumanising him because of his autism #like i adore his ‘own little bubble’ way of life as long as he’s physically okay kiryus not going to complain about anything. like when he #said ‘i decide to do things based on whether i love it or hate it’ im like Yeah i bet you do. he sits outside the orphanage all day playing #with rocks until nishiki comes finds him then they both go outside to smash open windows with the rocks kiryu has gathered and kiryus in his #little skirt and he always uses it to carry things in you know how it is and he stopped going to school to be a bigger menace than everyone #anyway did i mention that the universe loves kiryu. especially his genes he was very lucky because he never had a big chest or nothing he #was always going to get tall and thick in the shoulders and beefy and when he cut his hair it just sealed the deal he passed with flying #colours like young children are indistinguishable by gender unless they have a big pink bow in their hair but kiryu radiated masculinity #from a young age and his aggressive way of life didnt help. well it helped a lot actually. a lot of people were scared of him and nishikis #like dont be scared of kiryu shes nice when you get to know her and everyones like ?? thats a girl ??? #in fact it made more sense for kiryu to be a boy at that point so he went to kazama and told him and kazama was like ok lets make it happen #like kiryu and nishiki are so special because there is nobody in the universe more transphobic to kiryu than his own brother but also nishik #was the one helping kiryu shop for boy clothes when he was clueless about it like hes not stupid but he really doesnt know about fashion and #he trusts nishiki to not make him look stupid and nishiki is of course like 😏 well well well youre having a girl moment arent you #nishiki is okay with kiryu being a guy because this means that now whenever kiryu hits him he can fight back without being misogynistic #okay im done talking my noodles are getting cold but kiryu as a kid would have been a veritable nightmare #oh yeah my trans beam extended to nishitani as well because just look at him. everybody majima wants to sex is trans
