Some tag related stuff, to clarify some stuff about our emoji tags. If you know us personally you may know at least some of these individuals, other than the "no emoji" one of course, haha.

  • No emoji. Nobody specific, or we didnt feel like bothering to tag it, or we didnt know who it was, or its a pre-tagging post.
  • 🦈 they/it, she/him interchangably, fem monstergender. Not literally a shark. Androgynous, punk/metal/alt clothes, rough-around-the-edges vibes but very friendly and excitable
  • 🐶 she/her and maybe it/its too, puppygirl. Femme goth but in a cute puppy way. Peppy and friendly.
  • 🐲 he/him it/its or drak/draken, male dragon. Masc, laid back, gentle giant.
  • 🎸 she/her, girl. Loud tomboy, excitable, hyper.
  • 🦖 they/them, genderqueer. Friendly, but very tired nowadays.
  • 🐺 it/its, monstergender. Alt/metal/goth, quiet and gentle despite scary appearance.
  • 🍁 debating she/her it/its ae/aer. still figuring itself out

I will NEVER see a prehistoric dinosaur

I will NEVER see an anomalocaris. I will NEVER hold a trilobite. I will NEVER see a dimetrodon or an eight foot long millipede. and I will NEVER see a pterosaur

Well as much as it pains me to say it they died

i love filtering tags like. no. i do not want to see it. goodbye.

and then it is gone forever except for the fact that I am now presented with the most enticing button in the world

I had a dream that LG made a combination game console + water filtration pitcher and ported Higurashi to it as a launch title - I was compelled to draw the contraption for posterity

It only supported composite video and the entire console bit was in the base of the pitcher. You were expected to pick the whole console up and drink out of it while gaming. People were very upset when the water inevitably leaked into the electronics but LG never acknowledged this flaw. I have no idea what cartridges/disks looked like since it had no slot for them, but my first guess is that the water filtration cartridges themselves had game data. No controller was revealed to me, so I can only assume that the pitcher itself acts as a single giant controller, moving it around like a joystick and opening the lid to press the one single button. This is what innovation looks like

Console modding and portablizing is one of my favorite things ever. This isn’t even lose to the craziest one I’ve seen

Ps2 portable

N64 portables always look sisk when the cartridge takes up like half the size.

Wii in an almonds tin is there craziest one I’ve seen to date

There’s a more reasonable wii in a Gameboy as well

It’s a super fun community with a lot of helpful people in it. I haven’t built one yet, but it’s on my project list.

I love the ingenuity and determination.

i want to shake many young women and say you can grow in private. and what i mean by that is that you don’t have to publicly self-flagellate when you don’t know something or when you say something a little insensitive or whatever else. you don’t have to report your Bad Thoughts and Ignorance to the crowd who waits to judge you. you do not have to pay penance. you do not have to issue public statements. nothing more is gained from burying yourself in shame than you could gain by thinking “oh i don’t know about this” and looking it up real quick, or thinking “hm, that wasn’t how i want to behave, i’ll do different next time” and then moving on with your life. no need to choke yourself with it.

i genuinely think ocd is incredibly underdiagnosed bc i will see people posting what are obvious rituals, compulsions, intrusive thoughts, spiralling, hyper morality, etc and its like Have You Considered This Might Be An Issue

it isnt actually good or normal to have moral dilemmas every day about which posts you reblog. it isn't actually good or normal to check and recheck every message you send "just in case" you sent porn instead of a 'hi how are you'. it isn't actually good or normal to believe that your day will only go well if you have a specific keychain or whatever with you. like i'm not going to diagnose you but i do think some of you need to look into obsessive-compulsive disorder beyond "ha ha funny man wash his hands" portrayals.

I always tell people that even if they’re not pursuing diagnosis they should at least look at OCD support organizations’ pages on moral scrupulosity because that mindset is one you can literally see people developing in real time online.

I find this can help chip away a bit at stigma and confusion for people who have misconceptions that rituals can’t be mental (much of what people will describe as “checking for thought crimes” sounds a LOT like a mental ritual), as well as guide them towards tools for breaking the cycle of intrusive thoughts, obsession and ritual—or at the very least help persuade them that rituals reinforce, rather than “fix” those obsessions.

Like I do absolutely think people, especially ones who have access to counseling already, should raise and ask about these issues, including “I’m wondering if I might have OCD because…” (that is part of how I got diagnosed!), but these resources can be helpful for those who maybe haven’t had that kind of thought pattern before but encouraged themselves to do so because of social pressure to the point where they now have to un-learn it (essentially where it’s become disordered thinking) but will maybe balk at the idea of diagnosis because it hasn’t always been like that, or similar situations.

I try to emphasize that tools like this are open to anyone for whom they might be helpful, whether or not they have diagnosed OCD. Especially because some people who may get a diagnosis in future can still educate themselves now, and perhaps work towards one that way.

But for real, since I’ve started talking about OCD on my blog I’ve had literally half a dozen people talk to me (anon or not) about “…oh shit I had no idea OCD could look like [xyz thing]” and have The Realization, some of whom I know got diagnosed later and others of whom felt empowered to look into it when they hadn’t before because they were worried that seeking help with scrupulosity would be “appropriating OCD experiences” (people struggling with scrupulosity being scrupulous around needing help is definitely a bigger thing than I realized—it’s not just stigma or ignorance!).

Which is why I try to emphasize that everyone can and should take some time to learn about this stuff! The worst that can happen is you go “hm that doesn’t describe my experience” and you still know more about OCD and are better-prepared to support people who do have it.

Happy Anniversary. This is the original post. On this day in 2011 I was doing a charity drive for the natural disasters in Tōhoku and drew this. A few hours later I turned it into a gif and posted it here.

Here’s the original doodle before I drew it into a GIF

Happy 14th birthday Nyan Cat! The original post originated here on Tumblr

I love when my north american and european get mad at game pricing because I just stare from south america like oh so it's like "three months of wage" bad

so hit me up when the emulator starts working alright? thanks

dear other californians,

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD STOP EMBARRASSING US WITH THE “I CALL EVERYONE DUDE” SHIT

like. look. i get it. the urge is in our DNA. but you understand the very basic concept of acting and speaking in certain ways, in certain social situations? so that’s not an excuse. same exact thing goes for “dude is gender neutral, actually 🤓”. just say you want a reason to misgender a tranny already

As a trans girl who was born and raised in California, being from here is absolutely not an excuse to misgender people.

It’s such a stupid cope from people desperate to have any reason to get to call trans women “dude” like I’ve never thought California was special in this regard. I’ve never stepped foot on the west coast and “Dude” permeates every conversation still.

I don’t give a fuck if you’re from CaLiFoRnIa. Stop! Calling! Women! Dudes!

very good point—a lot of us love to get our heads up our asses about how californian we are, especially around this particular subject, even though the same kind of sentiment is echoed throughout the country (and likely elsewhere in the anglosphere).

it’s very obnoxious and frustrating of an excuse and i resent it because of the premise that Everyone From California Is Like This We Can’t Help It Smile :). it’s this weird blend of feigning innocence while also trying to shaft off the blame onto a huge swathe of people (do you know how terrifyingly huge california is?? do you???), while also manufacturing it by giving other assholes like this a leg to stand on.

no, not everyone from california is like this. being from california doesn’t make you special—you don’t get to claim we invented transmisogyny. you’re like this, and you’re participating in giving other people license to do it too. and besides, all of this is just beating around the bush with the real point that, on some level, you think it’s right to be obstinate and refuse to correctly gender trans women. so please, either shut the fuck up or get to the point and call us slurs already
