Hi everyone, we’re doing this again! The not-on-this-hellsite mascot poll is happening, and we’re encouraging people to vote for our favorite non-binary acorn! Like last time, we’ll post an art piece we’ve done for everyone who votes.
Tumblr people, can I ask something weird? Can I ask you to vote in a popular tournament poll…. Not on this hellsite? 🥺👉👈
My school’s mascot is Oakie the Acorn, and they’re probably the Tumblr-est mascot you could think of.
I mean, they’re an acorn for goodness’ sake, they’re officially non-binary, and they’re all about sustainability. The school they represent is also very tumblr- SUNY ESF is a school dedicated to saving the Earth, and its student culture makes it a place where the genders are queer and the neuros are divergent :) People just stop to stare at a weird mushroom or interesting insect all the time here, and if someone spots them, instead of ridicule, you’ll probably have two people staring.
In conclusion, vote for Oakie!
Just me and my 3 favorite characters, having issues….
glad that im not popular enough to have an evil shadow version of my blog that exists just to make contradictions on my posts

Ok, if anyone is looking for a Fire Emblem Awakening longfic… I just read this work by jonagold on AO3 and enjoyed it so, so much. It explores the relationship between the future children and their present selves after the game’s end, particularly how the young Lucina grows up in a time of peace with the her from an alternate future in her life…. It reads like a coming-of-age novel and for me, it was a treat to find.
In my biology lab classes:
Look at this cool living stuff! Today we’re dissecting flowers! What do you mean you won’t pipet by mouth? Yeah, wash your hands, don’t spill the microbes.
Would you like to taste this edible fungus? Or this edible plant?
In my chemistry lab classes:
So this is the concentrated acid and this other chemical will give you cancer and this one is highly flammable and might explode….
Always wear safety glasses and gloves and clothes that cover your body (in case you spill something corrosive or toxic) but aren’t too tight (so you can get them off fast in the event of Dangerous Chemical Spill) or too loose (so they won’t drag and catch on fire). NEVER EVER PIPET BY MOUTH OR TASTE ANYTHING OR EVEN SMELL ANYTHING BECAUSE DOING THAT MIGHT KILL YOU. Fires happen in the lab, let’s hope we don’t have any this semester!
Reminder about this because I am passionate and will not shut up about it lol
This is a little drawing I did in order to stick it to my laptop because I don’t have enough stickers as many stickers as I want :)
After I stuck it to my laptop, it tore, so I decided to fix it and make it look intentional. It’s a Shade from Hollow Knight- I love these funky little blobs of void
Thank you @printerpenguin for voting for Oakie :)
As an autistic person, I didn’t have this experience, because I not only have had a loving and unusually accepting family all my life, I’ve had a friend group almost entirely made up of fellow neurodivergent people. But some of my autistic friends have had this experience. I try to reassure them that someone will love them for who they are, that for some friendships, there aren’t any lines at which their friends will get sick of them. I will never get sick of someone for being “too autistic” and cut them out of my life. At times, I may get sick of a certain behavior and need a break from that particular thing, but I will come back, and there are others, autistic and not, who are the same way. I want everyone reading this to know: there are people who would love you as you are, even if you haven’t met them yet. And if you feel alone, feel free to message me; I may be just a stranger on the internet, but if I can help someone by listening and being there and being the friendly oddball I am, I’d be glad to.
Hi, we're the River System! Katlyn (she/they) and Jacob (he/him). Came for the fandoms, stayed for the off-the-wall and the cringe. 22, autistic (language abled and low support needs), Environmental Biology major. Actual Mad Scientists ;) [We do science and don't do sanity!] Mostly this is Katlyn obsessing over bugs and fandoms (Undertale, Hollow Knight, Little Nightmares, Fire Emblem: Awakening, RWBY, Arcane). Also may include photography, dark aesthetics, and general chaos from Jacob. (Cover photo by Sagar Patil on Unsplash)
