Hi okay. these inane callouts are never going to stop until people realise that weird kinks, fetishes, and porn are completely fucking neutral and aren't newsworthy in the least. people are gonna have weird sexual power fantasies. it has happened for all of human history and it will continue to do so. role-playing abuse with another consenting adult, fantasising about it, jerking off about it. none of this does harm to anybody on an inherent level.

"People use this kink to abuse-" abusers are in literally every community everywhere. if you think you can spot an abuser by spotting a kinkster, you're severely lacking in critical thinking. yes, there are abusive people doing abuse and calling it "kink". there are also abusive people doing abuse and calling it "sex" or "romance" or "friendship" or "parenting" or "teaching" or "doing my job" or any fucking other number of things. kink is not a unique vector for abuse.

if you think CNC/rape play is literal rape, then you yourself do not understand consent, and I do not trust you. if you think ageplay is an excuse for a dom to act out latent pedophilic urges on an unwitting (yet adult) victim, you do not understand consent, and I do not trust you. if you think petplay is the same as bestiality you're just fucking stupid.

we are out here saying "all the people involved in this dynamic are fully informed and want it and enthusiastically consent and we're having a really genuinely great time feeling very fulfilled and having fun" meanwhile you motherfuckers sit there crying how you "can't consent" to violence or whatever.

if you do not care about someone's ability to say yes, can you really care about their ability to say no?

so no. I don't, and I never will care what someone has been posting about on their porn twitter, or saying in private messages to their friends, or what porn they've been jacking it to, if the only real people involved have been consenting adults. and if they weren't? what the fuck is your callout post on tumblr.com going to do?

I mourn for the rebellious masc 'girl' in every movie, who grow out of her manliness and becomes some asshole's domesticated wife. I mourn for her short untameable hair, which she was always running a hand through in those old photos. I see the way her fingers linger as she goes through the album with her young daughter, forcing a laugh at who she 'used' to be.

T would have saved him.

Menace!

:C

I’m so fucking sick of AI

UM GUYS. I JUST NOTICED A CRAZY ISSUE W THE TUMBLR UPDATE.

YOU CAN SEE THE ICONS OF ANONS SOMETIMES.

The way I was able to recognize several anons in one of my inboxes bc of this error. Oh my god. Guys. This isn’t supposed to happen.

Weighing in to say:

YES, I SEE THIS ON MOBILE. HOWEVER I DO **NOT** THINK IT'S SHOWING THE ANON'S REAL IDENTITY.

The profile pictures I see next to anon asks are profile pictures that belong to other, non-anon asks in my ask box also. Some info

I think the bug is the inbox INCORRECTLY attributing anons to neighboring, logged-in asks.

Which is still a bad bug! Considering it makes it look like a long-time follower of mine sent me a spam ask.

And is worse if, say, one of these was anon hate.

But it's NOT the anon's real identity. It's a neighboring ask asker's identity

So if you have anon hate in your inbox that looks like it's attributed to your dear friend, who sends you lovely asks all the time, it was Not them.

CONFIRMED THE BUG IS INCORRECT ATTRIBUTION.

Thanks @thepatchycat for being a test subject. As you can see the icon being attributed to this ask is NOT the patchy cat

The pictured icon belongs to @watchingforcomets who sent me a nice ask about nail polish yesterday which I have not yet answered!

“Why would you want to make a game for the original Nintendo?? No one is going to buy that”

Over 100 people bought my game!!!!????? This is mind blowing. I don’t even know how to process this. I am so grateful. I would not have sold nearly this many without yall sharing this post as much as you did. I love you all so much. Thank you for making this happen. You all made my childhood dream come true in a bigger way than I thought possible.

BIG DUMB IDIOT BABY APPLE FIGHT

what I REALLY don’t like is this post was made in 2017

don’t talk to ME about gay yearning. in 2020 during lockdown i lived alone on a boat for three months. i went ashore once a day to work in a marine bio lab. we all had to access the lab at different times so we were never together & risking infection. i was alone all day every day, from my boat to the lab and back to my boat. one day a woman anchored her boat beside mine. we passed each other ashore just once at the harbor and she hit on me and invited me back to her boat. i told her i’d love nothing more but i could not risk exposure because of my weak immune system. she said it was a shame but that she understood. that night i was watering my vegetable garden i grew in 5 gallon buckets up on my roof and playing music on my speaker. “american pie” came on and she climbed up on her roof and shouted all the lyrics to every verse at me across the water and we danced together on our respective roofs. she raised anchor and moved on a few days later.

so yeah i know what it is to die a thousand deaths in an instant while your heart beats on.

etc.

Genius

I love it when pets do the thing where they've clearly figured out that certain steps result in an outcome, but they can't quite DO it themselves.

The cat understands that their food is in this container, and that their human gets it, and brings it to the dishes, and then there's food.

But having no thumbs has prevented them from their triumph.

I on the other hand love that he insists on using the bowl even though he could probably just rip/chew a hole in the bag.

Which indicates that he's probably not quite sure WHICH of the steps are crucial so he's earnestly repeating them all.

(kids do this too - it's called overimitation and there are experiments on it.)

An attempt was made.

ON WISCONSIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is what I mean by right wingers being the MOST out-of-touch!!!! Journalists who interviewed Wisconsin voters are saying that voters for both candidates were really turned-off by Musk's role in the race, and that they thought it was clear he was trying to buy their election. Musk and DOGE are getting booed in town halls in deep, deep red districts. These Republican Party officials are failing to listen to their own voters, not even just Democrats or swing voters, when they say these things. The only way you'd fail to recognize that Musk is unpopular throughout the American populace and its political spectrum is if you're in a far-right echo chamber, probably online. If you're just straight-up not leaving the house to get your impressions of how people vote.

Whenever someone complains about the $80 USD sticker price on new games, some folks like to bring up the fact that many Super Nintendo cartridges were retailing for the same price way back in the 90s.

The subtext of these observations is usually that AAA game prices have been effectively static for thirty years, so really, once you take inflation into account, AAA games are cheaper than ever.

A more pointed observation would be that, in spite of those thirty years of inflation, that $80 price tag has managed to become less affordable to the average gamer in 2025 than it was in 1995, which is an indictment that reaches much further than the AAA gaming industry.

Also you used to get a finished product. Of good quality.

Not really, no. Many games of the cartridge era – even AAA titles – were buggy, unfinished trash, and there was typically no recourse beyond buying a later cartridge revision at full price, if one existed at all. Final Fantasy VI (III US) is one of those games that had a sticker price of $80 USD in 1995, and its 1.0 release had terrible QA.
