At the current moment (Nov 24) On the first and last days Phil and Missa have spoken to each other, the last thing they've said to each other was and currently is

Missa: "Love you"

Phil: "Love you too"

#Full sentence not included so the first and latest day match at the basics bUT STILL #and Yes I know Bolas was fully present and Missa's Love you was directed at all of them BUT #Phil's last words to Missa is literally “Aw man. love you too love you too” #I miss them but they will be back #Pissa #qsmp shipping #just has to be silly about them for a sec #Qsmp

this may be controversial but maybe the "astarion and halsin are SO sexually traumatised that you should literally cut your own dick off before thinking abt them romantically you disgusting freaks" goon squad should consider the ramifications of essentially insisting assault survivors be permanently excluded from any kind of sex and romance bc they are too broken and stupid to be trusted to know their own desires and boundaries or have the capacity to want to explore/push them.

you know real survivors (not pixel men but real ppl like me!) can read that shit? do you think pushing the lie that encountering one (1) Genital Wielded With Intent will invariably cause us to crumble to a miserably weepy heap of dust and blow away in the breeze is appreciated or helpful? or implying the people that love or desire us are selfish at best and outright predators at worst?

i'm begging ppl to just be 2% normal about abuse survivors PLEASE. the characters aren't real but the attitude you drag from fandom back into the real world are.

#im a long term csa survivor and a 2x rape survivor. i'm now 30yo and live completely free of my trauma in a loving committed relationship #wanna know how i did it? mostly by exploring sex and intimacy on my own terms (including casual sex + kink as well as writing) #you know why i dont talk abt it even though it doesn't bother me? bc i hate the sudden change in how people treat me #like im a cross between a fabergé egg and a hand grenade. get fucked bro for REAL #obviously everyone processes this shit differently but god i am so tired of 'well meaning' disk horsers saying some googoo gaga nonsense #anyway im not tagging this but its fine to rb/interact with. #and YES other survivor spreading this crap this is a direct @ for you too! i'm spraying you with a water gun like a misbehaving cat

would you do bird hunting with Aurora given the opportunity? (I dont follow anyone who does hunting with their dogs and it would be interesting to see!)

I'm back and forth on it honestly. Ideally yeah, I'd love to give her the opportunity to hunt and be fulfilled that way. But there are a couple of things I'm struggling with:

I don't have access to training birds myself, nor the knowledge (or desire) to go at training her seriously alone.

Most gundog trainers (incl. my local brittany person who's been helping me out) expect you to go all in, birds should be your priority over all else (including general good dog manners).

Currently, pointing dog training in North America tends towards "make dogs bird obsessed -> introduce gunfire -> reign in the dogs so they're steady". The problems with this (for me) is that I don't want a bird obsessed dog at all and I don't want to use the pressure expected/required for "reigning it back in".

I had a really demoralizing experience trying to learn more about shotgun sizing and I'm not keen to try again.

So in conclusion, maybe but probably not to a serious extent.

#waverlyofthewinds hunts with her brittany! #i have much bigger priorities for aurora #including solid little adventure dog and capacity to be offleash (with similar caveats to mav) #plus i dont like being harsh in training #and a lot of bird dog training is heavy handed #*and yes you can absolutely train bird dog stuff in a kind way #but do i care enough to put that management and effort in? ehh #i do have an air rifle and i had all my hunting permits last season for birds #so i may try again this year for grouse depending how shes doing #the last few weeks have been a jumble of trying to figure out my priorities for rory and how i want to get there #after my bird dog training session last weekend i think i might be done #im not enjoying the direction it's trending #i can always revisit once she has better impulse control and foundations #bird dog training

I’m not gonna like it if by the end of this season or the next, they suddenly turn around and start giving Din attention again or put him into the helm of Mand’alor again.

They had a great setup from season 2. Everything that a Mandalorian needed to be king, Din had. Everything Mandalorian’s wanted from a king, Din had.

Why did they not explore any of that? Why is this season focused so much on bo, that all the foreshadowing and hints have been completely for nothing?

They’ve wasted an entire season, because Din should’ve been the focus from the beginning.

#i like bo but din has a better appeal as a ruler atp and someone i’ve been watching for 5 years so i’m not abandoning him #this storyline could’ve gone in a completely different direction #and yes they can connect the show to the saga AND still include din effectively #it’s just fustrating that we’ve had all these theories and we’re gonna have to wait by the end or next season to see if we’ll even get them #the mandalorian #din djarin #the mandalorian s3 #mand’alor din djarin #bo katan kryze #the darksaber #mythosaur #grogu #the mandalorion spoilers

What are some censorship rules that you feel you could most comfortably poke fun at without feeling like you could get in some kind of trouble or ending up on some watchlist for doing?

I guess the FOSTA/SESTA censorship law is a pretty miserable piece of legislation that has had a net negative impact on society since day 1. If I could find something funny about it, I'd definitely go for that one.

Although, you can make fun of it directly without being put on some watchlist, though keep in mind this is the law that laid groundwork for online surveillance/suppression of sex workers, and is basically the blueprint for some anti-abortion legislation proposals that would make it illegal to discuss obtaining abortions online. so if some people have their way, someday you COULD get put on a list for giving tips and info online to those seeking abortions. but i digress.

#yes i know anon was prob asking about china but i don't have an answer to that as i'm not at risk of ending up on any chinese watchlists #and i don't have a direct line to the NRTA to find out what gets you on any watchlists anyway，surprise surprise #You probably wouldn't get put on a list anyway #you'd probably just get perma banned from whatever platform you were posting on if you kept breaking their rules about what you can mention #the most basic of censorship rules for most sites i don't think anyone would have a problem with anyway bc most ppl in china agree w them #[these rules usually include no nazi flags or imperial japanese (rising sun) flag depictions， adhering to 1 china policy in discussions #not spreading superstition #or promoting belief in the superstitious] #I see netizens openly complain about topics being suppressed from search trends all the time it's probably (i'm guessing) not as sensitive #as you think #like you'd have to really be causing a scene to get taken note of #anyway sometimes i get what are essentially like. idk. essay prompts. in my inbox #and i just need you all to know i'm dumb as bricks and i don't keep up with international politics in any significant way #answered ask #text #...I guess to actually answer the question I think you could probably make fun of censorship of ghosts and witches a lot #the film censor bureau really shoots itself in the foot with the censorship laws. the chinese film horror genre is a fucking joke #and i see chinese netizens complaining that the domestic movie censorship has gone too far all the time #It's really a shame bc it's stifling some great story telling and everyone knows it

I never use this blog because the eddsworld fandom is genuinely the only fandom I've been completely fucking miserable trying to engage with. It's full of trans people and yet the community is SO hostile towards non-afab or non masc aligned in some way trans people. I've had people blatantly refused to respect my pronouns after saying they would. I've been misgendered in a server full of trans people where literally no one else was misgendered because there were pronoun roles. In that same server, while I was uplifting trans people making jokes about being proud of their bodies, they made fun of me for not having breasts. I've had multiple people debate my boundaries like it's a topic of discussion because I asked not to be called dude, a GENDERED TERM. I've had people gang up on me to the point of tears because I dared to describe my experiences being raised with an unconventional relationship to gender. I've been accused of holding grudges and being aggressive for even daring to speak up when I'm tired of being treated this way

And these events don't refer to a bunch of random assholes, they refer to people well known in the fandom. People I've seen on multiple servers. People whose names you say and it gets recognized

The eddsworld fandom has a HUGE transmisogyny problem and it needs to be discussed. The way I constantly feel unsafe when in a fandom surrounded by trans people is completely unacceptable

#I'm not a trans woman for the record. I'm genderless. but all of the transphobia ive experienced from the ew fandom #is directed from a hatred of trans women/people that dont have THEIR body or express themselves the same way THEY do #like the pronouns i asked to be called and were specifically told that people would start using them is she/her #and then they refused! #and this INCLUDES a friend of mine! #whose excuse was literally that it just didn't feel important #so yeah i dont use she/her pronouns now because i was already scared to and felt extremely vulnerable trying to do so #and every single trans person i asked to use those pronouns for me refused to. and it affirmed my fears and insecurities #and of course none of it is taken seriously when i bring it up!!! #im extremely against 'afab vs amab' bullshit but when a fandom has a huge problem of targeting a specific demographic of trans people #it needs to be addressed #also yes the slur in the url is reclaimed and no im not the original user with this url. i saw it on an old post and thought it was good #so i saved it. i dont even use this blog #eddsworld #transmisogyny #i have experienced transphobia in other fandoms and outside of them obviously #but mostly by cis people #or perhaps binary trans people that dont respect nonbinary people #and that's all been general transphobia #ONLY in the eddsworld fandom has it been targeted

I think I should tell people "I love you" more . no tone tags . out of nowhere . etc etc . I love you in a way that doesn't need to be labelled . I love you and you deserve to know it unprompted without having to ask me if I still do because I always have and always will and I want you to feel that as genuinely as I mean it . I love you

#➳ the fool speaks #this isn't directed to anybun specific this is like . every single person i know actually #most likely including you yes you the person reading this #unless ''ily'' makes you uncomfortable then instead i simply just care about you and wish you the best okay :]

hot take but taking every hearsay or rumor or book in a fictional universe for fact is bad understanding of the world as the story presents it, actually

#li.txt #this is both about dishonored and elder scrolls #propaganda exists! artistic interpretation exists! lie exist! people make shit up! #you cant take anything literally unless youre seeing it for yourself imo #if someone is telling you a story about their life they might omit information or make themselves look better! thats how people work! #or if you hear idk some musicians singing in the streets about an ancient myth from 4k years ago maybe dont take it for fact #this is a direct callout to people shitting on born in the month of darkness #if anything they were trying to make the outsider sound like a pathetic wet cat in need of a warm blanket and food. a poor meow meow #unless stuff is confirmed by the characters themselves Im not gonna believe it fully #the books are also often just. not true. theyre scientific speculation Just Like Real Life #or full on propaganda. just like - you guessed it - real life! #the best example that I can think of is how theres two books on the war of betony island in daggerfall. political!! propaganda!!! #not to mention: people will deceive you on purpose! omit details or full on Lie in your face #like Im sure theres stuff we completely misunderstood cause the one thing we were told about it was by someone bullshitting #like with delilah talking about her tragic backstory. like dont get me wrong I 100% believe that it all happened #but also I doubt she was as pitiful and that the Very Quick Summary was all there is to it #I should probably specify that if youre down to believing absolutely everything when there isnt any other sources thats fine #esp if you want to believe it for the reasons of Oh This Is Cool #like people absolutely eating up the angsty backstory for the outsider (me included cause yes. angst.) #have fun with all that #this is mostly about all the people throwing a temper tantrum online about disliking something about canon #'why do the musicians know the backstory why cant they leave anything vague anymore:/' theyre artists melinda its their job ur doing the sam #unless this was confirmed by the outsider in the books idk I cant find those damn things #if something is Stated by a Character or Written in a Novel that is in the world theres always some doubt #like I genuinely doubt that the events of Young Prince of Tyvia happened the way they do in the books #so like yknow. if you hate stuff so much just. ignore the canon established by literal in-game fiction

#studio killers #studio killers jenny #I WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #i have been waiting to see this tiger for 7 years* #they hearted my delusional comment so for now i assume it is in fact still her #unfortunately i'm not as hyped as i ordinarily would be since i am still very sad about my dog dying. but. here it is. #song is.... a bit under-developed i'd say. it really doesn't have jenny's careful meditative tone. nothing since the album has though #dirty car still clears #what IS interesting is- the mv's have never had anything to do with the lyrics before. that tiger is so iconic they included her lol #(also in soft bitch) #they did say as much on the podcast a while back. supposedly a new lore/story-driven direction #oh i almost forgot- yes this is in fact the snippet heard in the pilot #(*oh yeah it was on that tarot card... alongside human jenny which suggested a possible retcon. which is still possible.)

Thoughts on Bob mentoring Dion?

I really love Dion rofl

I love him too, he's a great character!

At first it sounds like a bit of trouble, Dion is grumpy, I don't think bob would handle a teenager well, but looking deeper I see a lot of potential!

Bob is also grumpy after all, and I think that whole "cocoon of anger to keep people from hurting me" thing is SUPER relatable to Dion

I think Bob and him would at first be awkward but as long as they fall into a rhythm of "tending garden without saying a word" Dion could get used to this kind of therapy.

No one here is pushing him to talk about his feelings, god forbid. He just digs in the dirt and rips up weeds and that's as close to punching something as he's allowed to get.

"Uh, Bob, don't you think mentoring should include more... mentoring?"

Bob smiles. "Give it time. Give him time."

And slowly, without encroaching on Bob's space, Dion's little corner of the garden takes on such an efficient organizational method that Bob adopts some of it for his own garden.

I'm thinking of Dion and Bob working on opposite sides of the greenhouse, and with nothing to focus on by the ground and plants and his own thoughts, Dion just- starts to cry. It comes out of nowhere and he's horrified, embarrassed- but it also feels like such a relief. He looks around to make sure Bob didn't see (Bob is psychic, he knows, but also knows the boy doesn't want attention right now) and finishes his work and hurries off. Processing trauma is like that sometimes.

He's not good with words. But he insists on trying to grow raspberries no matter how many times he fails, and he learns to handle things more gently. He gives his mom fresh veggies to cook with, and he asks Raz to bring him books on some type of psychic plant, and a fresh potted daisy shows up in Frazie's room.

Once the little plant has been given something stable to hold on to, it grows up straight and tall and starts to blossom.

When Bob is sick, one week- alcoholism is a bitch to kick- he comes back and his garden has been carefully tended. The plants tell him they were well cared for, his vines curly happily to see him.

Dion pretends he doesn't know what Bob is talking about. Bob gives him nice terra cotta pots for his new flowering succulents. Dion paints all eight with white and blue stripes and insists they all be kept together in a group, especially the smallest one in the middle.

anyway I like it! : D Bob is a good guy I think they could make it work! If Dion got herbaphony, he'd be bringing Gisu potted flowers because he's like "I can hear them and they didn't want me to rip them up i hope this is okay", and she thinks he's so cute it's worth lugging around a big pot all day.

#Dion to his plants: wow yes you are better than any human being alive (yes I am including myself) here have another misty spray #psychonauts 2 #dion aquato #psychic dion #i hope the direction i took this in was okay #guess im feeling soft #raspberries = raz by the way #and dion wanting to heal their relationship #if the metaphor wasn't clear ldkslfs #i think it could work but bob has to learn how to process his own trauma first #bob has spent the last decade give or take in isolation drinking himself to death #he needs his own therapist which is part of why he takes the hands-off approach with dion #i think it works

Silly little Jean moreau plllllllllllzzzzzz - @jtl-fics

Jean nodded. He didn't think he was quite ready for bed, but he didn't want to potentially wake Jeremy up when he went to bed later.

So, they climbed the stairs together and went to their room at the end of the hall. Jeremy headed into their bathroom to brush his teeth, while Jean grabbed his sketchbook and sat down on his bed. After all, there were a lot of moments from his first few days in California that he wanted to capture in journal entries or sketches. By the time Jeremy emerged from the bathroom, Jean was halfway through sketching the beach and crashing waves from the day prior, but he was starting to feel exhaustion take hold of him.

"Hey, do you mind if I turn off the overhead lights?"

Jean yawned and shut his sketchbook. "No, I think I'm going to turn in as well. You go ahead and get in bed, I'll turn it off after I brush my teeth."

"Sounds good," Jeremy said, climbing into his bed while Jean tossed his sketchbook over onto his desk before heading into their bathroom and leaving with the overpowering taste of peppermint in his mouth.

He shut the lights off as he headed back to his bed and hopped up and under his covers. He laid on his back as he settled in, the mattress starting to feel less stiff and more familiar underneath him. Almost like home.

Above him the dim glow of the city in the distance sent flickers of light across the ceiling. Jean watched them dance across the plaster, enjoying the different shapes and shadows that were created in the process. Just as Jean shut his eyes, Jeremy’s voice broke through the relative quiet in the room. “I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Jean.”  Jean furrowed his brow and turned his head to face Jeremy, who was leaning over the safety rail on his bed. “I know you are. It’s okay.” “It’s not, though. It isn't.
