I’m Not Dead!

I know the episode would have made headlines anyways given the current climate around trans people, but it's funny how by disney attempting to shelve the episode, they ended up streisanding themselves and thus, the episode got way more traction cause of it.

Just watched the banned Moon Girl episode.

>the episode addresses the topic of trans kids in sports >the entire episode is about how bigots will always move the goalpost, and playing by their rules is pointless >the solution is not to play their game and break the rules >it also states that trans people should never feel like a burden >the character Brooklyn is explicitly stated to be trans >there is also an explicitly nonbinary character >multiple mentions of pride and depictions of pride flags, trans flags and progress flags

I'm not at all surprised this didn't get past the censors but I'm so mad that it didn't, because this could've been something really special, and the fact it was canned after being fully finished is downright painful. This episode was wonderful and I'm grateful to all the people who worked on it, and angry that their hard work was wasted. Disney did not deserve you.

Here's a link, as long as Disney doesn't take it down

A message to Twitter users coming to tumblr: a message from your local duel-hellsite citizen

So, I’ve seen a ton of Twitter users talking about making and sharing their new tumblr blogs, to escape Elon Musk’s “anti censorship” bullshittery. First of all: welcome! I know it’s looking bleak over there; especially for trans people. But, now that you’re here, I’m here to tell you all about tumblr etiquette, how this website works, and how it’s different from Twitter. Because you can’t come onto here acting like it’s Twitter, lest The Beast get to you.

First, here are a small handful of tips and tumblr facts!

Your likes and who you are following are automatically set to public. You can make them private in your settings!

You can block tags from the settings, too.

There are lots of bots on here. If you’re not careful, you could be mistaken for one! The main way you can avoid this is changing your icon and header from the defaults. Adding a bio helps too!

You can queue and schedule posts so that your account posts throughout the day.

Like Twitter, tumblr has a radical feminist and TERF problem. However, they’re pretty easy to spot. There are lots of guides out there to help you learn how to spot tumblr TERFs!

Tumblr, for the most part, does not have any celebrity or brand accounts.

Your tumblr follower count is private.

You can have multiple accounts with the same email, and they’re very easy to switch between! These are called “sideblogs”.

Your main page is not a “timeline”. It is a “dashboard”!

You can have a custom desktop theme using HTML! Think like ye olde MySpace days. There are tons of pre-made tumblr themes available, if you’re not already proficient in HTML; including free ones!

Now, let’s talk tumblr etiquette and how it’s different from Twitter. You’re a tumblr user now! It’s time to start acting like it!

Don’t just like posts. They don’t increase visibility whatsoever. The way that you can help posts that you like is reblogging them to your blog. Especially for art!

We don’t say “oomfs” or “oomfies”. Just “mutuals” is fine, thanks!

Adding onto a post with pointless comments is frowned upon. If all you have to say it “this is so true,” or something else to that effect, you should put that in the tags of your reblog.

Most people don’t have carrds or rentries on here. Some of us do, but it’s not an obligation like it is for Twitter.

Similarly, we don’t censor words like “die” and “death”. Posts about wanting to brutally murder people in power go viral all the time, and it’s completely allowed. I’m serious! Enjoy your newfound freedom!

Blocking isn’t a big deal here. Get rid of any weird notion you have that morality is linked to blocking certain people.

But lastly, and most importantly:

Drop your discourse at the door.

If you try to post about most of the things that Twitter users discourse about, you will be laughed off the site. Especially Twitter LGBT+ discourse. Posts actively mocking topics of Twitter discourse go viral on here regularly.

Tumblr has mostly healed since its discourse-ridden days, and it’s now much more chill. Of course, discourse still happens, but it is so easy to avoid now. For a lot of us, tumblr is the last pleasant social media site left, so don’t ruin it.

Here is a list of discourse-related things that tumblr users don’t do:

Most of us don’t do callout posts, unless it’s something actually serious (like that one blog that had a human slave).

Everything that you heard on Twitter was “exclusive” to certain LGBT+ groups is used by just about everyone on here. Bi women use the double venus symbol on here. You’ll just have to learn to live with that.

In particular, I want to emphasize how much we don’t do flag discourse. To the point that somebody caring about flag discourse of any kind is how we tend to identify an ex-Twitter user.

On here, you will never have to see another slur discourse post again, unless you actively seek it out.

You’re free.

You’re welcome. And enjoy your time on here!

Oh hey

i’ve made 50 posts on here according to tumblr.

Woo-hoo 

So cause I don’t have much else to talk about here. How about I talk about some DND  characters i’ve played (And that I have art of)

My first dnd character was a 3rd-level Tiefling/Draconic bloodline sorcerer named Valentine. I don’t remember much about the character, I think his backstory was something about him being a president going out in the world after unlocking magical powers? But the most vivid memory I have of him is that I forgot to take actual leveled spells with them. So for a session or two, I was stuck casting firebolt for the whole session, and somehow I got the kill the kill on the boss fight. Needless to say the next session was way better! The campaign they were apart of didn’t last long but hey, I suppose if it weren't for this pride flag colored Tiefling I might not have gotten into DND.  My 2nd DND character shown here was a 9th-level Human, Way of the Kensai Monk/Ranger named: Master Wu-Tang (Yes, he was named after the Wu-Tang clan) who left his family to join an assassins guild of monks, now retired, he joined a ghost hunting organization called “The Crows” in order to do something with the remainder of his life (For reference he was around 70). He was made because the DM wanted to have the party sort of split between ghost players and crow player characters. Having the ghosts be the spellcasters and the crows be the martial characters (Something like this. Keep in mind this was 2 years ago) I also recall wanting to make a DND version of Master Roshi (Without the perverted “Gags) and with that. Wu-Tang was born. Despite some issues the campaign would end up running into (Such as two sort of problem players that I will not name here) Wu-Tang ended up being my longest lasting character. Lasting countless sessions and going from level 3 to level 9. 

The next character I made was for a Feywild campaign. A 5th level aasimar (Pre Monsters of the multiverse) Undead Warlock/Divine soul Sorccerer multiclass named Falus Lucifier. The basic premise of him was that he was born into a highly religious village that considered him to be a god. He visited a strange figure to try and find a way out, only to be murked by a band of Paladins. Though said strange figure would keep their end of the bargin (Sort of) reviving Falus by possessing his body. I basically ended up kinda playing Gabriel from Mandela catalogue as a DND character. Combat wise Falsus was pretty potent as he would cast bless on the parties martials (And himself) and use his form of dread before blasting away with eldritch blast. I designed him to be a blaster/support hybrid and my god I think it worked out, RP wise I unfortunately dropped the ball due to my less than stellar rping as the character and some odd decisions on my end. Maybe I should revisit the character concept sometime. 

The fourth character here is a character I played for a very short-lived Curse of Strahd campaign, a 3rd level Tortle/Path of the Aberrant (Homebrew subclass) called: Captian Goru Zur Ganqwuc. Who on a sailing trip to barovia would fall into the depths, sinking deeper and deeper before waking up with strange tendrils on his shell and gaining new powers. They were basically a grouchy old guy that had this quirk of calling people peck-neck, just to he could cuss someone out without anyone but him knowing what he meant. (Yes I took the line from a A Hat in Time cause I thought it was funny) he was pretty fun to rp as cause I got to do this gravely irish accent with the character. It’s a damn shame the campaign lasted one and a half sessions before being swapped for a Strixhaven campaign.

As a fun fact about Goru, he is the first character i’ve played that was a homebrew subclass. I’ve had characters made before that were homebrew (Such as Wu-Tangs back up character) but neither of those were actually used. And even if the aberrant barbarian was super janky and unbalanced. It was cool to actually play a subclass that I made. Maybe next time funny turtle man.

The last character here is my third most recent character. The 6th level human Chronurgist Wizard/Artificer named Dimitri Leviticus. They were made for a superhero campaign where, I originally wanted to be a homebrew gravity paladin, but the dm vetoed it cause it was too much. Which you know what, that’s on me, so trying to fill the party roll as both the spellcaster and the ranged blaster. I made Dimitri. Dimitri’s career started within as a toy maker, coming from a toy making family (Who were actually pieces of shit but they didn’t know that) Eventually their shop would’ve been blown up and, while in an apartment, with some guidance from a voice in his head they would make a device that allowed him to warp time. So they joined the new dawn academy in order to become a hero, both to bring smiles to the world in a way their toys can’t, and to possibly find out what happened the night their shop was bombed. Dimitri’s probably some of the most fun i’ve had with a caster (Much less a character) In a while, I reflavoured a bunch of their spells to fit the toy/steampunk theming of the character. Such as the web spell being flavored as a web of monkeys in a barrel, find familiar was flavored as a clockwork animal With a prominent wind-up mechanism in their back, and their version of chromatic orb was them throwing powered dodgeballs. Sure they were also mechanically strong and were kind of overpowered. But they were still super fun to play, if even just cause you get to look at any roll your DM made and say. ‘You know that’s a very nice roll...How about we reroll that”  The campaign was a bit of a mess and i’m 99% sure it’s done for. But hey, at least I came away from it with some good memories. 

That’s all of the DND characters i have drawn up atm. I might talk about some other characters i’ve played in another post. But for now if you’ve read this far, thank you. Go out and play some DND or something. 

if there was ever a time to NOT shut up about palestine, now's it

Hello, I am a human medicine student from Gaza City. I am asking you for urgent help in publishing the link for my family and delivering it to people interested and able to help us.

I feel sad and helpless, after we had Everything, we are now homeless on the streets, we live in a tent next to a dilapidated public toilet and there is sewage, filth and waste everywhere, we sleep on it! We suffer from terrible heat, insects and scorpions, the danger of death, bombs and missiles, in addition to hunger of course, and the danger of pollution and terrible diseases.Especially digestive, respiratory and reproductive! My younger siblings are suffering and very sick. They are terrified of everything, especially scorpions and insects. My father and mother cannot bear it any longer. You have the right to imagine that when you spend your life building for yourself and your children to live a decent life, all of this goes away in the blink of an eye, and now when you reach the age you should To rest in it, you are forced to start over !!? , but the most important thing now is to try to stay alive and protect your children from all the factors of death that surround us! I ask anyone who has humanity or conscience to feel our situation and put himself in our place. How can a person who has lived with dignity all his life accept this? We are dying slowly every day. Please, if anyone can help, even if just a little, do not delay! Your little means a lot to us!

New post from my TTRPG page

Hi there~! Didn't expect me to be making content so soon huh?

Well, I am here simply because I've put together a quick errata for the warlock reborn, because upon a second read-through I realize there were a ton of things I overlooked. I'll go over the changes made in this post here

-Added a spellcasting focus section for the pact magic feature. I have no idea how I forgot to add that until later but here I am, the only difference between it and the OG warlock is now you can use occult items, such as a skull or tarrot cards as a focus.

-Eldritch Invocation rebalance, a lot of the 5th-level such as eldritch smite and arcane barrage were pushed back to 6th-level because 5th-level is loaded as is, since you not only obtain 3rd-level spells, but your pact also improve at that level, so I felt somewhat justified in pushing those invocations back a level.

-Updated the dragon and evergrown patrons, upon further examination I found myself not entirely satisfied with how those two subclasses came out, so some updates were made. Which I will go over.

The Dragon:

Draconic burst was overhauled, it's damage got reduced from 2d6 down to 2d4, however, you can now use the feature without a resource cost, meaning you can blast away to your hearts content! I also added a paragraph explaining how it interacts with the eldritch blast invocations, mighty breath was reworked into the might of the wyrm feature, with comes with an increase to your draconic bursts damage, allowing it to deal 4d4 damage on top of the additional effects it gives. The last paragraph of Primordial tyrant was also updated to make it clearer.

The Evergrown

The natures child feature allows you to double your PB in the nature skill if you already have the proficiency, I'm honestly surprised I forgot that, but rushing to meet a deadline will do that to you. The might of the wilds part of your 6th-level feature was updated to instead reduced a creatures movement speed by half, wild sanctuary was updated to allow you to ignore difficult terrain created by your spells (Such as spiked growth or plant growth) and apex of gaia now buffs your curse of the wilds, allowing you to deal additional damage to surrounding creatures when a target afflicted by your curse of the wilds dies.

The general layout was also updated to make it a bit better on the eyes, otherwise that's about all of the changes made to the warlock reborn, hope you have fun with it and remember. Go out and make something awesome.
