I’m tentatively back from my social media break. By tentatively I mean there’s a good chance I will only log on to post art on @crankycorvid and this personal acc may not be used much if at all in the future.
DM me if you want my discord, otherwise I cannot promise I’ll see anything you dm me over tumblr in the future.

I’ve got a decent amount of unread dms. I’m still taking a social media break, I’ll be responding to them when I come back round Easter or so.

Just found out an ex-friend of mine posted a long victim blaming, manipulative post talking about him and his relationship with a current friend of mine. I don’t want to tag them because they don’t need any more of this mess on their dash, but he is currently under the @ thelefthandbonch (used to be atlasthewolfking, and also atlasthetoad). if you’ve reblogged or seen that post you’ll know what I’m talking about.
This man openly and intentionally misgendered his ex in his original post, so cw for that along with mentions of r*pe, su*cide, victim blaming, manipulation, and using his ex’s mental illness as a possible defence for what he did. To be EXTREMELY clear, I was in the group chat he mentions in his post since the beginning, and I was a very active member. I was also once his friend and I also once believed him or was unsure of my stance on this. I won’t stand for the story he’s spinning.
Regardless of how my friend spoke of him on their own personal blog, I believe they had the right to do so. I am livid for them, and I hurt for them deeply. He has never shown restraint in the past, and has used his porn addiction as a scapegoat for an extraordinary amount of things.
He kissed me without consent “as a joke” on one of his visits where we met up with a mutual friend, and that only furthers my belief of what my friend claims.
I will admit I didn’t know the exact ins and outs of their relationship because I didn’t want to ask my friend to speak more than they were comfortable about it, but I can say I always felt unsure about him even when I wasn’t positive why (even before he kissed me as a “joke”). He flirted with everyone in that group chat and had or attempted relationships with many of the people in there. He never owned up to anything and always pulled the victim card whenever he did anything wrong, as he’s doing now.
Not to mention he is calling out my friend for things completely unrelated to this story just to make him look better and further the dragging of their name. I am absolutely livid in a way I haven’t been in a long time.
I am an adult. I am 22 years old. I have never once wanted to force a kiss on someone without their consent, much less anything else. It’s also extremely funny to me that he mentions how my friend is polyamorous to drag their image down more, while he kissed me and flirted with another of my friends while they were still in a relationship.
If you support or believe his sob-story and believe he’s changed, cool, but I haven’t seen any change in his behavior to warrant the support he is getting from the post he has pinned at the top of his blog. A post where he drags the name of another person and paints them in a horrible light based on what he believes will garner him more support on the matter. A post where he actually owns up to nothing, and the things he does own up to he quickly skims over because he can do no wrong because he’s “trying to improve himself”.
TLDR; if you support him I’d like to ask you to unfollow me. Not because I dislike you based on you also being manipulated into believing he can do no wrong, but because I feel uncomfortable personally due to what happened to me as well.
#this situation's concluded as the dude's left discord and deleted his blog but#this whole situation is leaving me emotionally distraught#him and i talked about dating in mid julyish and i nearly went through with it#i had called it off by the time he visited in august and i got no red flags from him then#but knowing he was in my house and there were short periods of time it was just me and him in the car scares the everloving shit out of me#my perception of men has been further shattered with this and im hurting#im not going to be able to trust men for a long ass time after this#im still taking a break from tumblr and i'll be back easterish but i felt the need to reblog this for the sake of closure#tw assult#yonderspeaks

so-called “Christian” healing cults, like the Word of Faith movement, are intrinsically ableist. I want to unpack that here today.
I know we often talk about how these movements are heretical, and that remains my primary concern with them, but I don’t see much discussion about how they can be harmful in other ways. The subconscious damage done by participating in these movements can have longer-lasting emotional fallout for someone who is trying to recover; especially if they are trying to find their way out of a doctrine that consistently pointed out that their state of health was the primary thing “wrong with them,” and not their fallen state as a sinful human being (which we all universally share as the primary thing Wrong With Us.)
Phrases like the following: “We believe that God wants to heal and transform us so that we can live healthy and blessed lives in order to help others more effectively,” which is from the Hillsong website’s statement about Word of Faith teachings, lean on the fallacy that somehow, healed/able-bodied people are more “effective” than those with disabilities.
Jesus did not heal lepers and restore function to people’s limbs so they could be more “““Effective.”““ He did this to display His glory, to illustrate that He was the Messiah, and yes–He also did this because He loved them–but healing ministries run into yet another problem when they insist that Gods healing is evidence of His love. John 4:48 clarifies why Jesus did these healing miracles: “Jesus asked, ‘Will you never believe in me unless you see miraculous signs and wonders?’”
So when you spend your time preaching that the attendees in your congregation are flawed because their health is not “whole,” and you paint the Gospel in such a light that the biggest evidence of Gods love for people is His instantaneous and miraculous healing of those who suffer from chronic illnesses, you cement this idea in their minds that their illness somehow means that God doesn’t love them. And the aftereffects of this can subconsciously haunt them for a long time after they’ve detached from your faulty theology.
That’s all I think I have to say on this. Sorry for making it a long post, but I wanted to fully unpack what I meant in the opening statement. For those of you who, like myself and people close to me, are recovering from involvement in “christian” healing cults, my heart goes out to you and I am praying for you.

Nintendo Consoles Through the Generations
Had the idea of “what if I did models of the Nintendo consoles as if they were rendered on themselves?” and I did just that!
I plan on uploading timelapses of the process for each one. I have other timelapses on my youtube channel right now! Check it out, if you’d like!

“large chests are not inherently sexual and they need to be desexualized, especially since many people with large chests are underage and sexualized by default because of the natural state of their bodies” and “99% of character designs where the character has a large chest, especially underage ones, are matters of blatant fetishization and not an attempt to normalize the body type” are realities that can and should exist

the funniest thing in the entire pirates of the caribbean series is definitely that one scene in At World’s End where they have parlay but davy jones is part of it, and rather than have him stand in the shallows or something they get a big bucket of water and have in stand on it on shore
who thought of that idea? who thought “put davy jones in a bucket of water” and had the guts to suggest it aloud? and then who went “hey that sounds like a great idea!”
at some point someone told davy jones their idea was for him to stand in a bucket of water and he agreed to it
