A quick obituary, if y'all don't mind.

In 2018 my cat Lace died. it was sudden and mysterious and she went to one of her favorite spots to do it alone. She was buried just before a big hurricane at the beginning of summer. a little bit later me and my mom took a road trip to Georgia to see family, and I was inspired by the life and death i saw on the side of the roads to draw the 24/7 Haunted Roadside Diner comics.

In 2022 my cat Coup died. it was a long fight through 7 months of cancer that ended with me holding him at the vet as he took one last big jump after months of losing the ability to do so. he was cremated just before a big hurricane at the end of summer. a little bit later me and my mom took a road trip to Georgia to see family, and I was inspired by the life and death i saw on the side of the roads to draw more 24/7 Haunted Roadside Diner comics after not thinking about them for years.

They were total brats to each other most of the time and they could never agree on anything, but they were my friends for almost half of my life and they called truces to sit on my bed together and comfort me during the Bad Health Times or the Bad Emotions Times. I didn't realize that I was repeating history a little bit until I was almost finished redrawing these first 5 pages, but I think it's funny that even though they tried to go out as they lived, as fussy little opposites, that I started really healing from both of their deaths creatively in the same way. So here's to the prettiest girl in the world and the baby boy. I probably could have gotten weird enough emotionally to write about roadkill ghost stories on my own, but y'all made it way easier to get there.

I redrew the first 5 pages to fit in better with any future 24/7 HRD comics I want to do (and generally flex my improved art/writing skills), so I’ll be posting one of those a day for the next few days. I've got 5 more pages and some illustrations planned for spooky season (October/November) along with some Downtrodden stuff so y'know. Nature is healing.

Hopefully I'll have more to post soon. the future is lookin' lonelier without my small grey guy, but it'll still have bright spots I bet. I hope.

Blank blogs get blocked and reported! And if you support "real person fanfiction" you can also fuck off.

If your blog's icon is a gif that will give me a headache I will probably block you immediately.

Hello, call me Rjalker. I am nonbinary, autistic, an aroace lesbian, and my pronouns are it/its. Do not shorten my URL to RJ unless you're trying to misgenders me on purpose like a bigot.

Unless you are trying to @ me, when it will have to be a lowercase to work properly, if you are just typing my username, please capitalize the first letter, since my synesthesia makes it a different color if it's capitalized or not and I like the color it is when it's capitalized better :) (I have color grapheme synesthesia, where letters and words have inherent colors to my brain)

Patreon

Threadless (not very impressive yet)

Cashapp, Venmo, and Paypall are "Rjalker" with the same icon as here on tumblr.

If I make an image description for your post, please copy and paste it into your original post, rather than simply reblogging my addition.

This way, the entire post is accessible, rather than people having to go searching for the image description! You don't need to credit me at all, and if I described anything incorrectly or didn't give enough information, please feel free to edit the information into the ID! :)

This is my pinned post, but you can reblog it if you really want, as long as you aren’t on the DNI below the read-more.

Along those lines, do not tag any of my original posts with anything sexual or purposefully gross, especially because now I have to see your tags in my activity.

======================================

Hello, call me Rjalker. I am nonbinary, autistic, aroace, and my pronouns are it/its.

EX: "Its name is Rjalker, it is autistic and aroace, and its favorite color is blue."

Do not shorten my username to “RJ” and do not refer to me as “Mx.” Both of these are misgendering, and you are knowingly being transmisic if you still decide to do that after reading this post. My username is not long. There is no excuse for shortening it when you know that doing so will misgender me.

If you want to refer to me as a variations of "Mr/ms/mx" for a meme or whatever, use xr. Here's the post explaining this honorific set.

If you want to use a variation of sir/ma'am, use xiir.

If you want to use a variation of lady/guy/gentleman/whatever, either call me an othran, thing, werewolf, or an unfathomable horror beyond your comprehension. Your pick.

@walks-the-ages is my twin.

======================================

Spam likes and reblogs are 100% fine assuming you aren't on my DNI.

If you are on my DNI and you interact with my posts, not only are you being blocked, you are being reported.

If you want me to follow you, you need to tag NSFW posts so that I can filter them. This includes not only explicit mentions of sex, but genitals as well unless it's in an educational way.

If you reblog my posts to help other people block evade, you are getting blocked and reported.

======================================

DNI:

Anti-MOGAI, anti-Queer, anti-Xenogenders, anti-Neopronouns, amisics, panmisics, exclusionists including mspec-lesbian/gay exclusionists, people who are “”neutral”” on “”ace discourse””, TERFs, transmeds, transmisics, anti-BLM, anti-endogenic systems, Trump supporters, MAPS/pro-shippers/anti-antis, zoophiles, people who let anyone reblog from them, and people who don’t care who they reblog from, bigots in general.

Dream SMP fans, Harry Potter fans, Animorphs stans, people I have blocked, do not interact. You will be blocked.

If you block evade, you’re also going to be reported. If I block one of your friends and you come here to harass me about it, you will also be blocked and reported.

Other info is below the cut so this isn’t super long.

If you are on this DNI that also means don’t even interact with this post in any way. Don’t even like it.

============================

other random stuff:

In no particular order at all:

I have dyslexia, and I’m terrible at typing on my phone even though I’ve had it for several years, so I use speech to text a lot of the time when I’m not on my laptop, so please ignore the typos that it creates.

I am white, and I support Black Lives Matter. I am pro MOGAI, and my blog is safe for all trans and queer people, including people with xenogenders and people who use neopronouns, and people with "confusing" or "contradictory" labels. Queer people's identities do not exist for the comfort of bigots.

TERFs, other transmisics, and exclusionists will be blocked and reported on sight.

if I ever say or do anything harmful, please let me know, and no, me calling out racism, ableism, misogyny, or any other kind of bigotry from a character or person you stan is not harmful, so don't even try. Read that last sentence again and make sure you understand it, since stans keep cherry picking which parts of this they read.

If you're younger than 18 you're not allowed to try to argue with me about why you think [insert media] isn’t bigoted when I criticize it, because I'm not getting paid to explain basic critical thinking skills and the impact fiction has on reality to you.

If you need anything specific tagged, let me know. No, me criticizing a character you like doesn’t count. Just block me if you are that upset by it.

If you think it's okay to ship abusive, pedophillic, or incestuous ships, or you think it's okay to draw or write sexual art of minors? Get off my blog and don’t come back, because if I see you you are getting blocked and reported. Drawing or writing NSFW of minors is literally against Tumblr’s terms of service.

I block people very liberally so, especially if you are a woodworker, or are in the Flight Rising fandom, if I have you blocked, it’s probably nothing personal. Sometimes I’m trying to find pictures of living trees, and all that’s showing up is either the tables people are turning them into, or dragons with the colors named after the species. And tumblr doesn’t give us any other way to filter out your posts, so RIP to you I guess.

Just because I have you blocked doesn’t automatically mean I think you’ve done anything wrong, tumblr is just useless and doesn’t give us any other easy way to hide posts while searching. Me blocking you is not me saying you're a bad person or that I hate you or that you've done anything wrong. This is social media. Please just calm down if you're going to flip out about being blocked by me.
