stepping back from social media for the time being, probably at least until this current year of uni is finished or my degree is done. i've noticed a considerable decline in my mental health lately as a result of tumblr and twitter, and it's not something i can afford while also trying to juggle university, job hunting and some personal projects. if we've talked before or we're mutuals or whatever and you wanna talk, dm me and i'll give you my discord
i just got this from @embersnail and i love it, it keeps cracking me up every time i see it

Anyways. IWTV-based Sebaciel AU where Sebastian is a vampire that turns Ciel into his little codependent underling and has Ciel stuck in the hormonal puberty phase for eternity, so now he has to handle Ciel's bursts of sexual needs (which he is too happy to oblige) and his growing sexual curiosity. Bonus points if they sail to the USA during the Roaring Twenties and settle someplace big so Sebastian can introduce Ciel to all the pleasures of the sexual revolution. And, of course, pretty flapper dresses.
please make every effort to vote <3
Voter suppression is a real problem!! I know so many people in real life that are LGBTQ and or left leaning irl that seem to think theres no hope and dont bother to vote! Its insane!!
not to be radical or whatever, but i think that maybe calling women and queer people “pedophiles” for fanfiction is actually not the activism you think it is
Unfortunately I came across a very strange and misinformed video about Black Butler.
It’s not good. Don’t watch it. Unless you wanna ruin your day, in which case have fun.
Despite it all, I watched it. What left me wondering, however, was how off the mark the person who made the video was on, well, everything.
From their insistence that the Book of Circus Arc theme or point is non existent, to reading Ciel’s character so badly they genuinely thought the Green Witch Arc did nothing for his character development.
@smallsith thank you for reminding me that I had this animation ready but completely forgot to post it lol

“I hope Yana does the right thing now” I hope she adds a gratuitous sex scene where there’s close ups, moans, claws marks on skin, lube dripping and a money shot and maybe you’ll learn to mind your damn business.
Give it to Me by The Northern Boys
i googled the northern boys because this whips and i wanted to know what their deal is and now i just have way more questions
As a kid, when your parents are poor, you're poor. If they don't have money, that means none of you have money. But if someone's parents are rich, that doesn't necessarily mean the kid is. Sometimes rich peoples' kids aren't rich kids, they're just some rich freak's exotic pets that can talk but aren't allowed to.
That’s… not how class works
OK, so- my partner was adopted by a rich woman when he was a baby. She's from a prominent family, practically royalty where we're from. She certainly had the means to send him to fancy private school, give him good food, nice clothes/toys, premium healthcare... she chose not to. According to her he was lucky to be "adopted out of poverty" at all and should have been content with what she deigned to give him. And she reminded him of this constantly, all through his childhood.
She dangled the promise of uni in exchange for good behavior and good grades- with terms and conditions, of course. And filling her laundry list of demands was something like pulling teeth whilst jumping through hoops. In the end, did he get to go to uni? Of course not. (And certainly being queer/trans on top of it all did not help things whatsoever).
He cut her off after high school, and when I met him a year ago he had been working as (the equivalent of) an UberEats driver for a living for the last few years, including through the pandemic. (Sixteen hours a day for the equivalent of $6 (six) USD, not including the gas for his shitty rundown scooter; caught COVID twice, suffers from chronic fatigue to this day).
And to this day he still has to be selective about which of our ~leftist anarcho-commie~ friends he divulges this part of his background to- cos all they hear is "raised rich" and then suddenly he's not One of Them because "well teeeeechncially :^) you're from the oppressing class...". Like.... shit, man!
Social rules don't mean shit when it comes to abusive parents. Even rich ones.
Probably especially rich ones.
people are totally on board with the concept of "sufficiently rich people are above the law, and this is bad" but refuse to connect that to the concept of "this also includes laws that protect children from abuse and exploitation"
like we understand "the ruling classes get and maintain their wealth through cruel exploitation of those less powerful" and we can't wrap our heads around "a lifetime of this cruel and merciless behavior being valorized by your peers probably doesn't predispose you to suddenly changing gears once you have a helplessly dependent child that's totally under your control."
like yeah the rich are our enemies in this ongoing class war, absolutely, it's an Us or Them situation to save the planet. but if you don't give a shit about saving the enemy's children too, i don't think very highly of your motivation or your methods.
This is also why means testing is bullshit, especially in education, especially in higher education. The child of a rich person attending a public university on public money is less likely to be a spoiled elite taking advantage of resources they don't need, and more likely to be a young person who has finally gotten out from under the thumb of an abusive and exploitative authority figure and is taking steps to build a life that isn't dependent on agreeing with their family's politics.
A dad joke and a haïku? What a treat.
This is so
how do you explain to someone that this is your sense of humour
“What could the audio possibly be?”
*unmutes*
“Oh,”
If I ever don’t laugh at this, assume I died.
really recommend getting a partner with a different religion than you and very little knowledge of your religion because the opportunities for explaining things to each other are just exquisite
yesterday she told me some story about the Buddha's wife and child and I was like. Wait. He fucked? And she was like yeah of course he fucked, why wouldn't he, he was the most attractive and loveable and and wise and etc. person who ever lived. why would he not fuck.
this morning she looked perplexed in the kitchen at me and said "did Jesus not fuck?"
