banging my head on the wall BEGGING people on the internet to learn what an Inside Thought is. like you do not need to express every nasty opinion you have, and if you do so publicly, you gotta accept that people are gonna get mad at you for saying shit like "i find gay men repulsive". social media is not your private diary, it is public. there are consequences for saying terrible things, such as thousands of people thinking you're an asshole.

PLEASE learn what an inside thought is. you do not need to share everything that goes through your head. you shouldn't.

once you say something out loud people can hear it and respond. if what you say out loud insults them, they will also get mad at you. the nice thing about inside thoughts is when you don't say insulting things out loud to people, they don't get mad at you.

you have every right to say mean stupid bullshit that pisses people off, but if you don't want to deal with the consequences of that, consider learning some fuckin restraint.

this is why journaling and/or talking to yourself is such a useful tool. you can even make a post and leave it in drafts! it's healthy to get those thoughts out of your brain, but it's important to keep to an appropriate context.

very trusting

say what you will about california but i love that we have an official state slug (banana slug). more states should have official state slugs.

BEHOLD the majesty of california

Fun fact! These little guys have one of the broadest vertical natural habitat ranges because they snooch snooch snooch up to the top of very tall redwood trees and they dig dig dig dig down into the ground

Second fun fact! If you lick them, your tongue goes numb :)

Anonymously tell me your assumpmtions about me and I'll confirm or deny them.

Sadako Yamamura from Ring is canonically intersex (in the novel), and her variation is Complete Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (CAIS)!

Chat, guess who’s alive

'netizen' cutest word for internet user. It's the net and we're living here together ....

ATTENTION, IF YOU ARE AN ARTIST, NO MATTER OUTSIDE OF THE FANDOM OR THE AUDIENCE, IT IS STILL IMPORTANT THAT YOU READ THIS.

IF POSSIBLE, PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD AS WIDELY AS POSSIBLE!!! OR JUST GIVE ADVICE/HELP WITH THE SITUATION!

hello! My name is Brun. I am an artist, honestly: a Russian-speaking artist.

And at the moment I am observing such a problem, I will start from afar:

At the moment, one of the most popular social networks in the CIS countries is Telegram, which has popular groups on various topics, nothing unusual! People communicate, post their own and OTHER PEOPLE's ART, with CREDITS and LINKS TO THE AUTHORS, which is usually the norm that people follow, admins monitor this and look for art for the Daily (a.k.a. daily posts), but there are a couple of incidents that I want to warn you about.:

there is such a group as HOMESTUCK HOROSCOPES, the audience there is not small as you can see in the screenshots below.

and they themselves say that they take these artworks from their other groups in Telegram and don't even look at the author to credit them, because IT'S SO HAAAAARD🥺🥺🥺🥺 AND IT TAKES.... TIME!!!!!! My god, it's soooo hard, right?

and most importantly, CIS artists can at least still be outraged, check and see, say that their authorship should be indicated, BUT ARTISTS FROM TUMBLR / ENGLISH-SPEAKING PLATFORMS CAN NOT! you literally don't even have a way to find out about it, so, FACTUALLY they take advantage of you being unaware about the situation and steal other people's work without any consequences, ALSO including from CIS artists.

and there are many such groups and admins! and then the audience also SUPPORTS the admins by saying, "haha sigma, got them! Serves them right, and besides, it's just a Horoscope Confession! These people (who are outraged that their art is literally being stolen) are such wimps! 🙄"

so in fact, anyone who is against the admin's position will just be swept under the rug like dust, and, poof! it's your fault for pointing out the laziness of the admin, because IT'S SO DIFFICULT FOR THEM, WHY ARE YOU ALL SO DEMANDING!

+More screenshots and another group with the same topic.

I and at least ONE (possibly two) other people tried to shed some light on this situation, but in the end only received condemnation, so I want to at the very least warn YOU that you would always leave your nickname or a BIG watermark on even your smallest sketches in a place where it would be most difficult to erase, and if you can't to help - at least protect yourself and your creations.

links to them : https://t.me/horoscope_homestuck ( there it is still possible to find other similar groups through mutual PR ( #ВП ) )

I am legitimately so fucking sick of how normalized it is to sexually harass intersex people.

Look at this shit

The fucking like ratio. Why. Is it funny? Do people find it funny when we get sexually harassed? I've gotten this question a good 8 times.

This shit is so common

Perisex people find out we exist and they treat us like we only exist as sexual objects for them

It's so common that intersex teens online need to add disclaimers like this to their posts discussing being intersex, I've seen so many disclaimers similar to this on here as well as tik tok.

It just makes me so unbelievably sad that people do not respect us. They just don't. We're sexual objects or deformed freaks to most perisex people. It makes me so sad that we can't even talk about our lives online without being seen as walking fetish material.

And this happens irl as much as it happens online. In college settings, at queer bars, in queer spaces.

Happy April fools lol
