Don’t pull me into drama. By default I won’t reblog call out posts, because for every one valid one I’ve seen twenty full of actually-not-a-problem details used as a harassment campaign.
If you want to warn me about someone I reblog from and it’s not something in their header/pinned post, pls provide proof. I don’t have the time to go digging through a blog.
Short overviews of completed/in progess/planned fics + links under the cut (there’s a lot)
truly my LEAST favorite form of advertisement these days is the faux-tiktoker/influencer who is here to Sell Me Something. the “omg unbox my Pureology ™ skincare haul!!!” “doing the #NespressoChallenge!!!” “you guys will not BELIEVE what i got from shein-“ like its scary. its WEIRD. not only do i have no idea who these perfectly manicured, babytalking people are they feel less like real people than even an actual advertiser does. stop trying to make me believe you are my friend. you are something inhuman to me. you are a changeling. you are a brand wearing ill fitting human skin and i see its skeletal shape shift beneath the surface.
i know it probably wont happen for another 50 years but i sure do wish the discussion of disability rights was more ‘popular’. i dunno if it’s people’s inherent fear of mortality or aging or what but ableism is so fucking out of control. people have conversations about bodily autonomy and accessibility when it comes to stuff like classism, feminism, trans rights, etc then look at you like youre fucking bonkers if you say something like everywhere should be wheelchair accessible by default. and no not some back/side entrance with freight elevators or some shit. it’s not a special request to allow someone to use the fuckin front door
“Disability” is the world’s largest minority, that anyone can suddenly become a member of, at any time.
It has nothing to do with morality or motivation or inspiration or choices or manifesting or any of that other bullshit.
It’s genetics, socio-economics, coincidence, and a whole lot of fucking dumb luck.
And a LOT of abled people do not want to think about that last part.
They do not want to think about how close they truly are to being disabled, to losing independence, to losing financial freedoms, the ability to feed themselves, eat what they want, go where they want, live how they want.
They want to believe that if they do everything “right” (according to their definition of “right”) that whatever their system of Universal Accounting is will tally the balance and reward them with continued able-bodied-ness and good health.
Unfortunately, shit just doesn’t work like that.
Most often, it’s a very deep fear and a refusal to acknowledge the possibility that being disabled is not a moral failing. That it’s possible to do everything society says you’re supposed to, and shit can still go wrong, and your mind and body can still break down around you anyway.
And no lie, that’s scary. It’s genuinely terrifying to think about.
But if that’s terrifying to just think about it happening to you, imagine how much worse it is to actually live it… and then to ask for help, and have people tell you that, not only is what’s happening to you your own fault, but you also don’t deserve human rights because of it. That as hard as it is to navigate eating and drinking and walking and moving and listening and everything else now, it’s a “hassle” for them to “make accommodations” to even let you in the door.
rwby characters as who i think they’d main in super smash bros
ruby: sonic because speed but also bc i think she’d just be a huge sonic fan in general
weiss: pyra/mythra because of how versatile they are, similar to her semblance
blake: sheik!! the ninja-like qualities + the personalities fit pretty well
yang: captain falcon ofc! falcon punches her way to victory every time. i also think it’d be funny if she was wario because she’d use her motorcycle the entire time fbshfjsjfjs
jaune: young link. idk it just fits him super well through design and fighting style
nora: kirby. duh. pink and hammer and also adorable.
pyrrha: considering i had to give pyra/mythra to weiss, i’ll just have to give her sora. i think she’d fall off the edge a lot so she’d want someone with a really good recovery
ren: greninja. same sorta logic as blake
oscar: pokemon trainer. he likes the versatility that comes with playing three different kinds of characters in one. either that or villager because he matches the vibes
qrow: joker but mostly b/c he thinks he looks badass lmao
sun: diddy kong!!!! monkey boys!!!!!
neptune: luigi. no reason for this i just think it’d be funny
emerald: bayonetta. the vibes fit SO well
mercury: (i also wanna say bayonetta because the boot guns but that’d be a copout so) i’ll say sephiroth because he’d spam his projectile moves and laugh
cinder: can’t imagine she’d play but if she did then she’d kick ass as byleth
neo: jigglypuff. and then she’d commit mass murder
winter: lucina because the vibes. would also only play b/c either weiss would beg her to or qrow would taunt her until she did
Didn’t see any posts about it so here it is for the other Photosensitive folks,
Nimona has a lot of flashing lights, no intense strobing (ie Incredibles) but includes:
Alarm sequences (red lights, ‘police’ lights), explosions and gunfire
Sparks/flashing/flickering lights, firelight
Thunderstorms and lightning effects,
Flashes from color to black (hard to describe)
All within the first few minutes of the movie, frequently throughout.
It wasn’t too terrible when I watched with other lights on during the day but I tried watching it with them off and it was pretty bad. Sharing this so other people can find it would be much appreciated!
also before it starts to happen: if i see a single person calling july “gay wrath month” or saying “we deserve a second one” it is ON SIGHT. that is DISABILITY PRIDE MONTH. abled queers i will run you over with my wheelchair if you so much as reblog one of those comments.
hello! reblog this version instead!
Hello! Disabled person here. Did you know those of us declared legally disabled and collect SSI and benefits are barred from getting married? Yep! I’m also queer so this isn’t hate at all, it’s a call to action: if you love marriage equality, come help us fight for ours.
