⭐ AKA Nevi, which I go by more but the blog title's kind of an Artifact now and I am too lazy to make up a new one. ⭐ Afniel on AO3 ⭐ 40s ⭐ Nonbinary trans man ⭐ Extremely queer ⭐ He/they ⭐ Huge nerd, chronically ill, ADHDtistic ⭐ One of those nonhuman weirdos ⭐ Currently hyperfixated to hell on Mega Man/MMX ⭐ 日本語も喋る ⭐ Unsolicited fundraiser asks will be blocked and reported. I only reblog fundraisers from people I know and trust ⭐
I realized I don't have a pinned post, so...here is a pinned post, I guess?
Hi, I'm Nevi, though I won't be mad if you forget and just call me Afniel. I've also gone by Moppy since 1998 and that's still how I sign my art.
I'm an ace+arospec but also pan nonbinary genderqueer robotgender trans man, which is only the short version of it because gender and attraction are a complicated fuck like that. He/him/his or they/them/theirs are both legit. It/it/its, bit/bit/bits, and bot/bot/bots are especially cool if you're super chill with Weird Gender Shit.
I'm in my 40s, so if that's something you don't want to interact with, I respect that and won't be mad if you block me. This is generally a safe-for-life blog now, though I do swear a lot. It wasn't always SFW/SFL so beware if you scroll back in the archives too far. I've changed a lot since starting it.
I don't have a DNI, I don't go looking for DNIs, I will definitely not notice your DNI. If you don't want to interact, don't. If I don't, I won't. Very simple. You may block me if that's not acceptable.
I'm disabled and have chronic pain and fatigue, mostly from fibromyalgia.
I've also got the ADHDtism so don't be surprised if I'm overly literal, miss the point, or if I'm extremely fucking funny at words (evidently this is a real side effect, lmao).
I've got some kind of Traumatic Dissociative Thing and I'm definitely a system of some type (I don't want it diagnosed on paper for reasons and I've got it pretty well managed). I'm the only one of me who currently blogs here but that might change at some point.
Less important stuff under the cut!
Pro-all types of systems. I was not born onto this earth for such a brief and brilliant time to waste it telling people that I know what goes on in their head better than they do, and I don't think anybody else was, either. Endogenic, traumagenic, whatevergenic, I don't discriminate by origin and I support anybody in need of support; I just believe and support people when they tell me how they are.
The relationships between fiction, reality, censorship, freedom, responsibility, and harm are far too complex to reduce to any single 'think of the children!' type of argument. I do not trust any government in the world to censor the 'right' things, and I do not think censorship is ever right, nor is harassment an acceptable behavior. Proship not just as in 'in support of imagining whatever the fuck and leaving others in peace about whatever they're imagining, because thoughtcrimes aren't real' (not "problematic ship," which it has literally never meant, except as used by people intentionally changing the definition in very bad faith to make themselves seem morally superior/justified), but also in the 'I couldn't care less about shipping itself, but shipping is only the absolute smallest corner of the issue' way.
I'm pagan but I've gotten so lazy about it. I actually used to blog mostly about that and witchcraft. True story. It's been a while though and I mostly don't now.
I draw and the art mostly goes on @moppy-art.
Gatekeepers are such a lame concept in general. If you consider yourself one, consider reconsidering, because that's a shit hobby to build a personality around.
Xenogenders and neopronouns are fine actually, and clearly not just for children, as I'm in my 40s and using them. It is important to try to make it easy enough for non-native speakers and those with language difficulties, but don't use those with language barriers as props for bigotry either.
I write and that goes here under #Nevi Writes, and on AO3 as Afniel.
I'm a nonhuman weirdo and that goes on @actias-android.
I'm working (slowly) on a whole entire classic Mega Man fangame from the ground up starring Roll, and that goes on @megaman-r.
Vidya james meems go on @moon-lord-big-naturals.
The Mega Man hyperfixation hellscape blog is @being-so-normal-about-reploids.
Je parle un peu de français mais ça fait 20+ ans que je ne l'utilize pas donc je l'ai oublié lmao
I think that's it? I'll add/update as needed.
我学汉语学的很差。But I've got over a year streak going in HelloChinese and I can kinda break my Chinese-speaking friends' brains via Discord now so there's that! (Even if it's mostly because I'm learning mainland and they're Taiwanese...)
This blog is ancient. If you keep scrolling back, you are, guaranteed, going to encounter uninformed opinions, outdated information, and bad takes. That's just life. You live and, hopefully, you learn. If you run into anything you're uncertain about here, you can always send me an ask about it, though you'll likely need to include a link so I know what you're referencing because as I said, this blog is old. I definitely don't remember everything I've said here over the past 10+ years.

Okay you know what. I've been annoyed by this for a while but I'm extra annoyed today for whatever reason. I would happily cross-post my fic to FFN but I do not appreciate their hate boner for author's note chapters. My shit comes with multiple appendices, man, I am not backing down from that or leaving chapters off! I literally cannot follow this.
"The chapter system is not to be used as placeholder for non-story content such as author notes. You can add short author notes to the beginning or at the end of stories but never as individual chapters."
Sorry not sorry that I can't fit the enormous amount of worldbuilding I personally did, which is still transformative fan work, in three sentences. It's staying. FFN is just gonna not host any of my work other than what it already does.
(There's a single, ancient story of mine up there. It's not great, I won't tell you where it is or what my name was, but I wouldn't mind rewriting it maybe...)
I just gotta figure out how to put three novels plus some short stories over on fanfiction.lol because I like its vibes and I'd be the first one in my fandom there, which entertains me. It's such an old fandom that older sites tend to have a lot of very 90s-00s fics, and newer sites often have nothing. That's what's gotten me thinking about cross-posting, I think.
I heard back from the site admin and the inability to import from AO3 is, sadly, hardcoded. I would imagine that digging into and finding exactly where would be a task that sucks to do, evidently hard enough that all forks of AO3 suffer from it. So. Manual import it is.
Task for today: copy over just Failure to Compile. That's "only" 25 chapters. I can do this! I can. Really.

I've made this exact post like 3 different times atp but. It's endlessly funny when people (especially tech company people) treat Asimov's three laws as a legit proposed framework for Artificial Intelligence safety when like. Nearly every single Asimov story they're featured in involves something going wrong as a result of a robot trying to follow three three laws in a situation that makes execution of the laws ambiguous or contradictory. They're not a guideline for legit AI programming they're a plot device designed to cause problems due to interacting in weird ways with complicated hypothetical situations!
I swear to fucking god. I would claw out OneDrive from my computer if I could. I would burn down their servers if I could. I would run down their stocks to the ground if I could. I hope every single one of their workers gets a better offer from a competitor in the next 24 hours. I hope every single one of their light bulbs explodes at the same time. I hope every single carton of milk in their fridge will always be expired.
Stop backing up my fucking files.
Stop asking me to back up my fucking files.
Stop taking my fucking files off my fucking computer.
I don't want a fucking reminder in three fucking days. Let me fucking say no.
My BayArea and/or y2k computer nerds LOOK at this amazing thing my friend sent me an electronics swap meet in Saratoga!?!! They have not updated their website since web 1.0 and they are using majordomo for their mailing list. You know this is going to be a bunch of grumpy old dudes retired from NASA and actual hackers with felony records from the 80’s.
Oh they're LEGIT legit, aren't they. I high key want to go but I have no idea what I'd even want from it, but Just Going As An Experience is also a thing I can want...

you have to love trans women more than you hate transmisogyny, you have to love jews more than you hate antisemitism, you have to love Black people more than you hate white supremacy, you have to love Indigenous people more than you hate colonialism, you have to love the disabled and mentally ill more than you hate ableism, you have to love. you have to love.

Oh. Okay. Well that was...I guess I spotted someone in the interim between "oh shit I hit follow when I meant to block" and "there, whew, now I'll never see their shit takes on my dash again."
Weird because from their posts I feel like we would have generally agreed on things but who the fuck knows. Some people are fucking weird about trans men anymore. It was probably that, guessing from blog content.
On the funnier side this means I've got enough notoriety that I am in fact getting around to people that I have no idea who they are, but they have some idea who I am, even if it's skewed (of course it's skewed, though, this is Tumblr and I'm showing about 1% of my actual daily life, if that much).
