Seriously though, would you wanna live in a house where someone killed themselves? I could almost guarantee you that someone’s killed themselves in this room. Ew, David!
IVE BEEN FUCKING SLAYED
No sound but holy shit
Someone please open a bakery because I want a roll of Krioff! He such a sweetie ♡
ok this pride i do really need white gays to step up and out of their comfort zone and learn more about pinkwashing and gay imperialism. i need you to really try to understand why we say lgbt issues are ALWAYS about race and acknowledge the ways you use your identity as an opt-out of examining how you can reproduce racism islamophobia antisemitism colorism ableism etc etc. every year you say « don’t forget the ‘‘poc gays’’ that made this possible !! » now im asking you guys to actually do that. please ive had enough.
This is powerful, it also needed to be said.
I want all nonblack people to watch this video, especially white people.
This is the best video IMO that displays the depth of what it feels like to be Black in the midst of white supremacy.
This is the rage that burns in so many Black people and eats at us when it is not sufficiently soothed by our self restraint and years of learning to cope with and sit with us. This is the pain that shortens Black people’s very lives, that we smother each day. This is the justified yet unjustly ignored anger we have learned to hold and to aim and to deal with without breaking (too much).
This is the fire that those of you who are just showing up on the scene are learning to sit beside.
When you ask us ‘how we’re doing’, understand that this is the real core of it, every single day, and we have had to learn to laugh, to sing, to dance, to work, to grieve, to heal around heavy, heavy pain. I don’t get the feeling that y’all are expecting nor could you handle if we answered you like this. But I do feel like you should already know how we’re doing: we’re Black.
So y’all, sit with this video for a hot minute.
Kimberly Jones, you are a warrior. I feel every moment of this, every diaphragm flex, every tenuously tempered shout. And I hope that you are taking a break, and experiencing a moment of peace, because you deserve it.
I know, I know—it’s a little late now, we are around 550 instead—but OMG, you wonderful 500~550 people ❤️❤️❤️ It feels so strange…But in a good way—like, that’s more people than went to my school growing up?!
And to celebrate, I will be doing a giveaway! 🥳
There are two prices to win. You enter by liking and/or reposting two different posts (depending on what price you want)—and you can enter both but only win one. If somehow, someone wins both, I will contact that winner to choose one of the prices, and give the other to someone else!
Get a character painting, by me :) You can choose a style and character* (it does not have to be related to this game or fandom)!
Here are some examples! (Though scroll past the first post…)
All you have to do to enter is be a follower (new or old), and like or repost this post! (You can do both and would then double your chance to win this price!)
Design a game detail** that will appear in the game!
Design an outfit (either an everyday outfit or a ball outfit)
AND
Design an NPC character that appears somewhere in the game (will have a small role).
Give me a rough or detailed idea of what you want, and I will work with you to craft it :D
All you have to do to enter is be a follower (new or old), and like or repost the pinned game post! (You can do both and would then double your chance to win this price!)
*Fair warning, I am best with closeup and humanoids… Please no detailed hands… it’s so hard to get right :( And if it is a simple idea, I could perhaps do two characters… But, umm, nothing too NSFW. And it doesn’t have to be in a realistic style, send me a few references, and I will try and make it work :D
** If it is highly inappropriate, or very very era ill-suited, I might have to ask for a different idea. But I don’t expect that to happen :) It cant be copyright material (unless it is Sherlock related…)
I will be accepting ideas/prompts for a combo (a quick drawing) ≈ 500-1000 word prompts that are of the same scenario.
Write in the comments or send me an anonymous message of what you would want to see—Oh, and mention it is for the contest!
I might also add some of my own ideas—then I’ll make a poll of some that I like or think would be good, and you guys vote for your favourite!
*I will end it in two weeks. Will randomise winners 1st of September!
I. Was. So. Happy. Then. I. Broke. Me.
Literally what just happened to me. Fuck you, phone. Fuck you, notification. Fuck you, Voltage for teasing me.

Hi! Here is a blog that I honestly needed to work on for any writing I do. When I'm not trying to drown my sorrows in tea, you can find me writing on Ao3. I'm a English graduate who got a job to fund her 2D boyfriends. I love art, gardening, traveling, and my cats.
