Whipers Of Wonder!

name 3 things that might be surprising to know about you, because of the way your blog looks!

-> me first!

ive never been friends irl w a boy.

im horrendously bad at school, i even had to almost repeat another year.

im a very impulsive person and i easily get upset.

1. I'm not good at articulation. A lot of my friends on here have told me they thought I was really confident and well-spoken, but that's just in writing— I can't speak well 😭 and certainly not in front of crowds.

2. I was a Karasu hater once. Yeah, be surprised. I hated him when I first read the manga, it took me a second reread (because the first read is always just me thinking from the protagonist's pov without any other influence) to like him.

3. I have a really short fuse in real life. I'm working on changing it, but I lose patience really fast, especially with myself. So yep. Texting cools me down, helps me think.

anyway:

1. i’m short-tempered and can’t really stand it if someone doesn’t get directly to the point.

2. i lowkey disliked phainon in the beginning. now he’s one of my favourite characters.

3. i can’t never decide on a theme. i have so many theme ideas but I struggle to start making them.

My first two languages were Anishinaabemowin and French. I only started learning English when I was four.

The reason I do not like writing about periods, having children, or pregnancy is not only because of my general disinterest in the topic but also because I was born sterile and will never have a period.

I do not actively seek out romance and have been happily single for six years now! I write about it so much that I feel like that seems unlike me. Maybe one day I will have a Missus Brutus, just waiting on the right person.

1. I am a big overthinker and it makes me hesitant to post and interect with others a lot. Even writing these 3 random facts about myself made me overthink for a good 10 minutes on what I should answer. Its also my small crafting business' name because 🙃 That's who I am.

2. I only posted fics about Marvel, Star Wars and Umbrella Academy, but I am a huge fan of animes. I cosplayed AOT and rn, on top of my Spartan armor (from Halo) I'm planning on making a Megumin cosplay with my hubby as Kasuma from Konosuba.

3. I am struggling rn with impostor syndrom. I feel like everyone I interacted on this platform left because idk, they grew up, and I'm still here, still liking the characters and daydreaming, yet maybe I should have grown up too?

1). 99% of my friends in real life are over ten or twenty years older than me. I've never had a friend who was around my age. On Tumblr is different, obviously.

2). I love to dance. Put me in a relaxed environment and I'll dance to almost any kind of music. I know all the dance moves to The Men in Black, and I'm currently working on perfecting them.

3). I'm writing an original book that required me to drive to three different states to look at landscape. It involves these beautiful ethnicities: Native American, Mexican, Dinka, Japanese, Guatemalan, Irish, Guro tribe, and Tibetan Buddhas. The story involves a lot of intense research and exploration of each individual culture, tradition, and religion. I hope to accomplish writing it one day.

Reading: James Baldwin's Go Tell It On the Mountain, and the graphic novel Redbone: The True Story of An All Native American Rock Band! They're both really good, though I feel like saying " hey have you heard this Baldwin guy writes pretty good" is so understated as to be absurd...

Last Series Watched: ...weirdly, Penny Dreadful. Just watched the first episode for the first time. I thought it was really funny how they kept being sneaky with the identity of Frankenstein. Some real " who could this buff white haired guy BE" of them XD

Last Film: ...dang. what was my last actual movie. Maybe part 1 of LM 1934??

Last Song: well thanks to the Lackadaisy blog, it's Cab Calloway's " You Rascal You"

Sweet or Salty: both are wonderful but right now I really want some salty snacks so that I guess!

Coffee or Tea: noooo my beloveds.... how can I choose....I guess it's tea just because there's so many kinds...???

Working on: Intentional Project Wise I guess it's " trying to come up with an idea for Barricade Days" o' clock for me!

i'm asking for $80. this is to cover any additional fees to make sure i don't get overdrafted.

you can find my ko-fi in the link below. i'm a native american, transmasc butch lesbian, disabled nonbinary person. currently i make 100% of the household's income (of three people) on my disability check and groceries are getting harder and harder to afford while my housemates look for jobs.

thank you so much for reading and if you donate and/or share i will be very very grateful. 💚💞

This article/essay provides a detailed explanation of what landback entails and what you can do to help as a non-Native. It also includes videos from Native Americans explaining the landback movement across America (such as in South Dakota where the Lakota are fighting to reclaim Ȟesápa and the Black Hills).

This week, they:

- Rolled out a hugely disruptive change that stole notes and recognition from creators, effectively kneecapping the entire point of the website, extremely suddenly and without running it by their volunteer beta testers first, and only rolled it back because people were canceling their premium memberships and turning off reblogs en masse

- Immediately followed up that debacle (which brought back attention to the time our CEO @photomatt stalked a woman off site after banning her fot making a joke about him and publicly revealed her private information) by suddenly banning a huge swath of trans women, the vast majority of whom had zero TOS breaking material on their blogs, for the official given reason of, and I QUOTE: "NO REASON AT ALL." (AFAIK most of these women have been reinstated as of writing this?)

- Matt immediately trying to distract us AGAIN, with some half-assed idea of making popular tumblr blogs into what, unpaid volunteer consultants? Anyway the first and so far only popular blog he decided to directly platform happened to be @prismatic-bell, who IS well known... by the small remaining non-white communities on tumblr for being a MASSIZE RACIST.

- Here are the !DOCUMENTED! instances of prismatic-bell's racism, ableism, and threats. (Xie have been reported several times, but tumblr would rather ban neet girls with fighting game blogs than open white supremacists.)

- Said all people suffering from addiction deserve to die.

- Tracked down a native american person's identity using their tribal enrollment and threatened to doxx them for disagreeing with xem.

- Spread already debunked anti-Arab and islamophobic myths and propaganda as well as racist comments about Arabs in general.

- Threatened to call the feds/cops on nonwhite activists who disagree with xem, an illegal and life threatening activity known as "swatting."

- Saw no problem with asking "ARE ABORIGINAL AUSTRALIANS EVEN HUMAN?" and doubled down when Aboriginal bloggers asked xem to stop.

- Is openly pro-genocide, pro-ethnostate, and pro-ethnic cleansing, on the side of white/european supremacy.

- Meanwhile tumblr is doing All That, the huge community of self-identified, open and proud NEO-NAZIS continue to go unbanned, and even have an actual Tumblr Community.

𝜗𝜚 warnings : nothing else! just fluffy fluff. i’m native american but this may not apply to all natives this is just for funsies !! not proofread SO PLEASE BE NICE

Dick Grayson

if you’re out there dancing, whether it’s traditional or a contemporary style, TRUSTTTT that this man is literally having heart palpitations next to your cousins.

he’s literally there willing to get anything for you!!! if it’s the overpriced lemonade or a ndn taco, he’s standing in line.

is so entertained by your aunties and will listen them gossip about another family member.

dick is the type to go get you because your cousins told him that grand entry is in a couple minutes.

he’ll gladly help you unwrap your hair ties and take your makeup off as he tells you how good you did.

“babe, that was amazing !!! oh my— the spinning and the footwork? i could just fall in love all over again.” he gushes as he meticulously yet, gently undoes the twists.

Jason Todd

oh i KNOWWW he’s at the food stands..,. that white man loves him an ndn taco or even an ndn burger oughhhh

he’s more quiet than Dick is, that doesn’t mean that Jason isn’t just as proud and mesmerized by your dancing.

he’s the type to hold your shawl, fan, etc to follow behind you as you shop around the jewelry booths.

omgosh… he’s such the type to help you with your makeup with such a lovestruck look on his face but he’d never admit that he’d look like that.

trust that jason is wrapping his hand around yours while your younger cousins are egging you two on.

“Aww, so lovey dovey! you two might aswell be a married couple..!” you flush and shove their arm meanwhile they burst out in laughter. Jason just stands there with a small smile on his face while your hands are intertwined together.

Duke Thomas

he’s a bit shy when it comes to meeting your family, but just know by the time it’s time for yall to go.. your grandma is OBSESSED with him and telling him to go eat (meanwhile she has 10 to go plates ready for him.)

he’s such the type to be careful of your regalia, yet as soon as you finish taking it all off he’s wrapping his arms around you and mumbling how gorgeous you are into your shoulder.

he’s literally your sunshine, you swear that he’s your good luck charm when it comes to contesting while he’s just happy to watch you.

he likes to sit and listen to your younger cousins, you know that he’s immediately spoiling on them and buying a bubble wand (ifykYKK) for each of them.

“baby.. you don’t have to do that for them..!” You said, arms crossed as your baby cousins giggle and scream as they run past you with a string of bubbles in their path. “it’s nothing.. this is barely even a percent of Bruce’s black card.”

Tim Drake

He’s the type to run you a water bottle after you dance as he yaps about how good you did on the last song.

he LOVES your family but, he can admit that he’s a fan of the small stolen moments between you. The way you practice to the drumming of the men’s group while he sits beside you with a soft blush on the tips of his ears.

Tim is also the type to say it’s all rigged while you explain how the judge and one of the dancers are related.

“I’m sorry, babe.. but that’s crazy, especially how good you did during the—“ Tim would literally continue that rant for a good hour while you giggle at his strong case for your win.

as soon as you get to the hotel room you two stayed in, Tim is helping you no matter what.. whether he’s massaging your leg after a full day of dancing or helping you with your earrings and other jewelry while you pull out the fiftieth bobby pin out of your hair.

Damian Wayne

you teach him phrases in your language, while he teaches you little nicknames in Arabic.

he’s literally ENTRANCED in your dancing, his face will be straight but his eyes are what give him away, they quite literally shine as he watches you.

you tease him about the look he has, but all he does is click his tongue and he traces shapes on your hand.

he likes to stay close to you, he’s not a pda type of guy BUT, he will curl his pinky around yours as you two navigate through the crowd.

damian likes the sound of the drum and music and finds it comforting as he watches. he likes all the styles, but he’s always waiting for you to come out.

he carries around a sketchbook and he draws your side profile while you talk to your relatives or just even resting after your contest.
