They/It - You know how small pests are more afraid of you than you are of them? That is me with you - Banner by Coyote-Quest
Welcome! I’m WiyldeFire. I use they/it pronouns and have no idea what I’m doing! I am autistic, alexithymic, and anxious.
If you would like to see various things I write or otherwise create, they should all be under #Fire work.
Feel free to talk to me! I currently have too much free time on my hands to listen, and various special interests I’d gladly talk about.
I use the same username everywhere, feel free to go find me in the wild idc.
yeah yeah everyone wants fangs and wings. pick a weird animal adaptation to magically develop instead
the ability to shoot blood out of your eye
the ability to eject your guts and emit a convincing reek of death
a symbiotic partner species that rides on your head and eats your lice
a pincer that can fire off a bubble of air fast enough to shatter glass
a tongue that can wrap all the way around your head
a supernaturally acute nose comprised of a star-like cluster of sense organs
a rock-hard shell, fused to your spine
saliva so chock full of toxic bacteria that your bite is reliably fatal
nictitating membranes in your eyes
the ability to produce clone offspring
a velcro-like texture on your feet, allowing you to scale vertical walls
a bite force of 1,800 psi with a jaw to match
Not me gimme that 1800 psi bite force
LGBT people, I need you to know that any “pedophile execution bill” passed in the US is meant to put you, personally, to death. When the right says “groomer,” they’re talking about you. When they say “predator,” they’re talking about you. When they say “pedophile,” they’re talking about you. Any actual child sex abusers who are convicted and executed would be, to them, a happy accident, a cherry on top of a law that’s meant to exterminate anyone who deviates from the cisgender, heterosexual norm.
y'all know that whole left-brained/right-brained thing is fake right? and the "brain fully develops at age 25" thing? and the "we only use 10% of our brains" thing? yeah they're all complete horseshit please yell at anyone who says them
okay people are doing nuance in the notes about the kernels of truth in neuroscience myths but I really really need you to understand that that is not important here. people don't believe there are "right-brained" and "left-brained" people because they've misunderstood lateralisation of the central nervous system, they believe it because that binary framework was deliberately pushed by people who wanted to define who was logical enough to lead, and surprise surprise, white adult heterosexual men are left-brained. people don't believe the brain "finishes developing at 25" because they've misunderstood life stage differences in neuroplasticity, they believe it because the idea that children, teens, and young adults have inferior brains is a convenient rationalisation for a society that marginalises them. people don't believe you "only use 10% of your brain" because they misread an fMRI study, they believe it because it's useful bullshit for everyone from hyperindividualist historical revisionists pushing the great genius concept of scientific progress to hucksters recruiting for cults that will teach you to unlock your latent telekinesis for just $5000 a month. that's why it's fucking important to know that many popular science ideas are false and to push back on them loudly and frequently, because they're not just mildly incorrect, they are often active components of systems of violence.
Okay! For those who were wondering about alternatives to Google Docs, I think I found pretty much the perfect option: Ellipsus
Besides being online and collaborative like GDocs, a few things I've liked about it so far:
Oh yeah, snippet sharing:
and a built in export to AO3
Their plans are to keep this version of the product free, and then create higher end paid versions with more features to maintain a sustainable model that'll keep the product viable. They seem really cool so far. Highly recommend checking them out, if you're in any way interested in degoogling.
criminalize youth sports and college athletics. make them illegal. it is so extremely fucked up for a kid to do permanent damage to their body at the ripe old age of 15 in hopes of getting a college scholarship where they will be an unpaid revenue source for the college and continue to fuck up their bodies. I truly do not understand why trans kids freak everyone out but kids getting permanent brain damage and lifelong injuries playing hockey or whatever is good clean fun. I am serious. I am not joking. especially with the consequences of repeated brain injuries in sports like football being widely known now.
seeing someone use she/her on canon male character is like seeing the sun shine thru the clouds btw
thinking again about vampirism as disability
what if you slept all day and woke at night, lonely and frustrated. what if you couldn't go to social events, or even mundane public spaces like stores. what if you couldn't see the sun. what if you couldn't go to the pool, or the beach, or the creek. what if you couldn't eat what everyone else is eating. what if you couldn't eat at all. what if your basic needs came at the cost of your loved ones' quality of life. what if you became agitated, confused, maybe even violent if your needs weren't met. what if people blamed your behavior on demons, or worse, your own inherent evil. what if people saw you as a threat to your own community. what if the default response to your suffering was either indifference or violence. what if people thought you were better off dead, that you no longer count as human, that they're doing you a favor by letting you disappear. what if people assumed you must somehow deserve all of this. what about that.
