I get when people wanna rewrite entire arcs and add/remove characters

but I always find it odd when people, esp in DotC, remove the 'love interest' characters because they dislike their roles when you can just have their arcs be different instead of removing, usually female, characters.

I haven't seen this super often but it feels odd when I do.

now because I like being transparent

these are from 2015

but also man it was wild to read this author defend a wife beater

between these two posts is a huge one by Jayfrost explaining their argument but if you'd like to skim it yourself, I can find the link and add it to a reblog

sometimes you have a normal day and other times you're seeing nothing but people memeing on the fucking wild ass Tom apologist bs going on from one of the authors that you're just now hearing of

don’t forget to update your family tree from Squirrelflight to Squirrelstar

family tree??? <- sick from cold and confused

#if you're talking about any au family trees i've done #then they're not attached to canon #but idk if that's what you mean

with my previous post being said, I did like a lot of Thunder

I kinda expected the one big plot twist involving the RiverClan plot [being vague to avoid spoilers], though I will say it's curious how that came back to bite said character

also, Sunbeam and Frostpaw, my poor girls

one needs to go full no contact with her mother [reading through her chapters brought back a lot of feelings, though I will say that I'm happy she's having independence apart from Nightheart]

and the other needs all kinda of therapy [especially involving said plot twist]

#warriors #warrior cats #thunder #asc thunder

to throw my two cents out there:

what happened to Frostpaw as of Thunder should not and never be compared to forced sterilization

forced sterilization is a racist and ableist practice used to 'cull out imperfection' and was used primarily against people of color and those with disabilities, to put it in the bluntest term I can

and even then, there's more horror to the truth of forced sterilization

however, Frostpaw being tnr [trapped, neutered, returned] is not that and it people are doing more harm than good comparing it

it feels like it's the same people comparing Tigerheartstar's taking over of RiverClan to cultural genocide and it's all giving me the worst headache when I see people talk about it

#warriors #warrior cats #it is literally the tnr program #i know warriors has a lot of racism issues #this is not one of them

won't be able to do any trick or treat thing this year cause I am unwell [only a week of having a whole organ removed from my tired body], so apologies to any and all who were hoping for something

it also doesn't help that pre-surgery Killian thought he'd be cute and leave me, post-surgery Killian, with all faer WIPs

#/lh #but fr i do not feel good #so i'm not going to participate #but i wish all of you a fun spooky season

thanks!!!

just had my first major transitional surgery, so since I have not much better to do, keep an eye out for a comic I'm working on that's Warriors related. It's not ready yet, but I have 6 weeks of recovery time.

[warriorsbutnotreally]

aye congrats on the surgery! I hope you have a good recovery :P

thanks!

so far it's going well, so I just gotta keep this positive momentum going!

it is canon actually

she's been described with short legs before the books tend to make her come off as small at times

tho 'short Squilf' haters have said "short legs doesn't mean she's short!" [which wtf does it mean then?]

but also some people do draw her average height and such, which no shame there as long as they're not being an ass about smaller Squirrelflight designs

something funny I've noticed is that most people who complain about short headcanons/art of Squirrelflight

are often also the same people who treat shorter people [esp people with dwarfism] the same way they accuse people of treating Squilf

aka infantilizing them

#in fact like #saying that short headcanons #means someone's babifying a character #is yikes imo #like there are people who do that no doubt #but there are short people who like headcanoning other short characters #it's so fucking annoying to see people ignore the fact #that some people like imagining characters are like them

I'll go through random bursts of studying plants and animals cause my brain is calmed by it

and somehow I always end up coming out with names that would work with the canon Clans because they're plants or animals that can be found in the UK - or at least really close to the UK and I choose to count it because in the end these are for my own headcanon names

Happy birthday!! 🎉🎈🎊🎂 Also, congrats on the doctor visit. That sounds weird, but it's a big step! Hope you had a great birthday!!!!

thanks!

and you're good lol it was a visit I had been anxious for and I'm just glad I came out with some good news

and I did! I spent time with friends and family after my doctor visit and got told that I'm looking healthy as I can be, which is a relief

#esp since i've been having health scares all year lol #i'm okay tho #just a lot of small illnesses hitting me at once #but nothing too bad #regular my body hates me stuff
