I'm Misha (he/him preferred, but others are fine), young adult. I'm a queer Russian socialist. I suspect I may also be autistic. This is my main blog.
I have a sideblog called crossroadsofchaos where I make original posts about my OCs and my other media interests, including art, writing, edits, text posts, etc, follow me there for that. Originally the blog was strictly OC-centric, but as of May 2024, I also decided to move my original fandom posts there.
If you'd like to ask anything, feel free to send an ask! Anon asks are allowed.
Also, feel free to scroll through my "#positivity" tag, I reblog positivity posts sometimes. This includes positivity for people with stigmatized mental illnesses, like Cluster B disorders, OCD, bipolar, etc.
I add image descriptions to images I post, but only occasionally add them to reblogged images.
I try to tag triggers, at least ones I'm aware of. The format is "#cw: [thing]", like "#cw: flashing", "#cw: blood" or "cw: violence", and a handful are abbreviated by either simple shortening or use of initials like "#cw: sui mention", "#cw: ed mention", "#cw: sa mention" or "#cw: csa mention". If there's anything you'd like me to tag, feel free to ask. I rarely post or reblog nsfw, but my tags for it are "#cw: mild nsft" and "#cw: nsft stuff".
Also, I try to tag posts like "reblog this if you think x", "good luck posts" and other stuff like that with "#reblog bait", and generally try not to even reblog them in the first place these days. (Note: fundraiser posts won't get the "reblog bait" tag).
Fundraiser tags: #donations; #palestine fundraisers; #sudan fundraisers; #congo fundraisers.
A few more things:
- Do not repost/reupload my work or any other artist's work without permission. And get that permission before posting, instead of posting and saying you'll remove it if they ask. Ask for permission, and if they say no, or they don't reply, don't post it.
- I don't care what labels or pronouns people use as long as they're not doing cultural appropriation, using terms like "super straight/gay" (made by transphobes to say they aren't into trans people) or being harmful in some other way (like rad/queers, who think you can claim literally any experience/identity just because you want to; as an example, they think you can "transition" into being autistic, ADHD, and other neurodivergences, and call actual people with debilitating disorders like PTSD "lucky" to have them).
- Tme/tma are intersexist terms, this post by an intersex transfem explains why.
- For anyone using the Shinigami Eyes extension: The extension is not trustworthy or reliable. The only real way to know if someone is pro- or anti-trans is to check their blog manually.
- To elaborate: the extension is consistently being used to mark vocally pro-trans queer people (including trans people) as "anti-trans" for calling out intersexism, racism, and other issues in the community, or even for literally just talking about their own lived experiences; meanwhile there have also been examples of people being falsely marked as pro-trans, and the extension's guidelines say that "theyfab" (a slur against non-binary people) is not enough to mark someone as anti-trans.
- I block pr0ship/c0mship/pr0fic/whatever on sight. Carefully exploring a dark subject is great; treating it as a "tee-hee silly shipping trope" akin to Tall x Short or Fire x Ice is not doing that, it's trivializing and cutesifying the subject.
