i do not post, answer, or reblog donation requests unless they are for established charities or close friends. verified lists of individuals are not established charities. donation request asks and messages are deleted and accounts are blocked. because of my very clear message here, all asks and messages requesting donations or submitted/linked posts about donations are reported as spam. real people do not read this kind of message and send asks anyways.
if you think all trans masc people are transmisogynistic, this is not the blog for you. bye.
im sterling! he/him/his or they/them/theirs pronouns, you can use one set or the other, or switch in between, whatever floats your duck. note: the fact i use âmasculineâ pronouns does not mean im a man. im non-binary, and only ever call myself trans masc bc im just not a girl. thank you for coming to my ted talk
yeah i did name myself after sterling archer. and all the customer reviews are things people have actually considered appropriate to say to a stranger on the internet.
screenshotting out of context posts is a massive loser move. commit to the bit and find another way to embarrass me.
if you send me an ask and the answer can be found here im replying with a star trek meme:
im 24 and donât tag nsfw. i donât post it often but youâve been warned
original posts are #sterling speaks asks are #answered + #anon when applicable
i add onto posts a lot, either to fact check or just say shit. itâs usually not directed at op or the above commenter i just like talking
trigger tags are âtw blankâ (ex: tw antisemitism)
you can ask for trigger tags if you hang around my blog a lot
unless youâre gonna ask for queer to be tagged a slur bc im not doing that lol
i have a side blog for some anime/genshin impact stuff to keep this one from being insufferable. you can dm for the url and genshin uid if you really want
im a type one diabetic with complications from ketoacidosis (me/cfs and pots), and hEDS. occasional wheelchair user with a service dog in training named scout. adhd, bpd, and all sorts of other shit.
my qualifications when it comes to disability diagnosis are i have some and have read things on the internet. if you ask me âdo i have xâ i can give you some suggestions based on my personal experiences, but iâm not a doctor. grain of salt
i dont mind answering questions about disability/accessibility/mobility aids as long as questions are respectful
if i get into a fight with someone pls donât harass them on my behalf
feel free to send me fact checks for posts, iâll reblog with valid updates
DNF/and yes i actually check this:
im not joking about blocking bigoted people on sight. if you follow you wonât be following for long.
other: us military veterans unless you can be chill about it , transmeds, terfs, gun enthusiasts/no gun regulation supporters, anti-aquariums/animal reserves/zoos, anti self diagnosis*, anti-mental illness recovery*, eating disorder blogs/pro-eating disorders, vegans who donât know that meat consumption isnât the root of all evil, fanblogs for: hazbin hotel, attack on titan, 13 reasons why, south park/other ~adult animation like it~. hamilton is on thin ice.
about self-dx: thereâs nothing wrong with identifying your own symptoms and determining possible reasons for those symptoms. however, you cannot say you have a diagnosis when you do not meet the diagnostic criteria. idc if you think you have some weird unique form of a condition-if you do not meet the criteria and have not been diagnosed after extensive work with a medical professional, do not represent yourself as an example of that condition. ex: you say you have a potentially disabling mental condition like bpd, but then have few or none of the nine diagnostic criteria.
about mental illness recovery: it is completely up to an individual to decide what this means for them. however, i do believe itâs in someoneâs best interest to at least find some kind of management plan that works for them, even if that doesnât include classical psychiatry. conditions like bpd and bipolar can be life ruining if you donât actively try and work with it, i understand this isnât possible for everyone but start with a dbt worksheet or smth. take care <3

hey it's me black mold. thanks for running your window air conditioner all summer. whatever you do, do not regularly clean the removable filter. that's not necessary
you should also never ever unplug the air conditioner and stick a flashlight in the vent that blows air to see if we're in there. it's very bad, that place should not be checked
and whatever you do, if you've already made the mistake of unplugging it, don't remove it from the window for cleaning if possible. and whether it's possible to remove the unit or not, don't carefully disassemble the front panel, document where the screws go and plastic bits go, and open up the vent more to be able to get into it easily
as black mold, i'm an expert on this. you should heed my warnings: now, if you've somehow made the mistake of doing all of the above, you should not use warm water and dish soap to CLEAN the inside of the vent thoroughly. DON'T ever use a bottle brush to get into the hard to reach places. and certainly don't rinse and dry the cleaned area before carefully putting it back together
there's nothing wrong with us, black mold. we don't cause or exacerbate breathing conditions like asthma or other illnesses. it's cool, we're cool
furthermore, if you're capable of removing the window unit, DONT take a hose with the same soapy water and wash the portion of the window unit that sits outside the window and is therefore weatherproofed.
whatever you do, don't allow the air conditioner to dry before plugging it back in and turning it on again
and if you have a central air conditioner, you will definitely never ever consult a manual or sources online to perform a similar cleaning procedure on the cooling unit outside.
lastly, if you're physically unable to do the things we (the black mold) warned you not to do above, you should never ever ask someone to help you or hire a service to do it.
Also even if you do not have the time, space or ability to do some of the the things in the OP, definitely do not clean the coils (the awful sharp flat stacks of metal) with foaming coil cleaner. That removes the beneficial black mold (us) holding the unit together. It will be completely unsatisfying to watch the foam clean out the Super Beneficial Black Mold, Mildew, Hair, Lint & Dust Combo⢠(that is not only a health hazard but making the unit less efficient at cooling necessary for air conditioner function) and leave the metal shiny.
It is a lot of elbow grease and definitely not just spraying a can and waiting. Especially do not use the ones that are self rinsing via the natural condensation of water around the coils where all you have to do is let the foam settle a couple hours before turning the unit back on. These foaming cleaners are also terrible to use on the removable air intake vent covers. You definitely do not just have to spray the opposite side of all the trapped shit on the plastic mesh and let the foam push it off. Also that stuff on the cover is great for you and your air conditioner.
Trust us. We, the mold, know much more about air conditioners than the people who make aerosol cans you can pick up for like $8 at home depot. Definitely do not do this a couple times a season.

my friend's discord server has a "proof of touch grass" channel where they post pics of them doing regular activities outdoors/in public. i think many online spaces could benefit from such a thing
when i was super depressed - like struggling to eat anything barely able to get out of bed to pee depressed - my good friend asked me every day to send her a picture of me holding a leaf and a picture of a meal i was eating and it helped me significantly
(also, she was never judgey - if my meal was a single potato chip she would simply say good job eating a potato chip today <3 )
which is to say, i agree proof of touch grass is a good idea for online spaces

I just saw a short where this comedian Red Richardson (don't know anything about his comedy or politics otherwise, I've never seen him before) touched on something I have said many times...
"in the age of no body shaming, there is still one thing you're allowed to body shame apparently, and that is men with small dicks. Greta Thunberg was arguing on Twitter with a guy called Andrew Tate, who is on house arrest in Romania, for sex trafficking. Do you know what she said? 'you have small dick energy'. She could have said 'Andrew, you're on house arrest, in Romania, for sex trafficking' but apparently on the list of crimes that rates below having a small dick."
Small dick jokes have always been body shaming, sexist and intersexist. They shouldn't be tolerated
I get into fights with people about this all the time! They're like "This isn't body shaming!" which is wild because the penis is a body part and you're asserting the size and shape of it is shameful.
Then they're all like, "Well, no, I'M not saying that it is. I'm using THEIR MINDSET to insult them." Babe, you are using the notion that the shape of someone's body makes them a bad person. That's body shaming. Whether it originates with them or with you, you are using the tool of the oppressor. The master's tools will never dismantle the master's house.
My friend's family has an unhealthy relationship with the microwave in my opinion. It seems to factor into about half of all of their cooking. What do you mean you have always only microwaved your baked potatoes? WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU MADE MEATLOAF IN THE MICROWAVE?

Controversial Truths About Ancient Egypt Masterpost
The pyramids were built by contemporary workers who received wages and were fed and taken care of during construction
The Dendera âlightbulbâ is a representation of the creation myth and has nothing to do with electricity
We didnât find âââcopper wiringâââ in the great pyramid either
Hatshepsut wasnât transgender
The gods didnât actually have animal heads
Hieroglyphs arenât mysteriously magical; theyâre just a language (seriously we have shopping lists and work rosters and even ancient erotica)
The ancient Egyptian ethnicity wasnât homogeneous
Noses (and ears, and arms) broke off statues and reliefs for a variety of reasons, none of which are âthere is a widespread archaeological conspiracy to hide the Egyptian ethnicityâ
The carvings at Abydos arenât modern machines but recarvings over old carvings. Sure they look like them but if you can read hieroglyphs and know that Ramesses II will even usurp the carvings of his own father just to be a little shit
âNo soot on the ceilings and walls of the Dendera temple!â is actually because of extensive restoration works and not because Egyptians were in on shit like Baghdad âbatteriesâ
While the Egyptians were fine-ass astronomers they didnât align any of their enormous and/or important buildings to modern star constellations, because constellations look very different now than they did ~5000 years agoÂ
The pyramid is the simplest, sturdiest shape with which to build and many different cultures discovered this in their own time. There were never any weird fish humans/aliens involved
While they had feline deities throughout their history, Egyptians didnât actually worship cats themselves. This was a later Greek/Ptolemaeic addition
It was not, in fact, practice to shave off eyebrows after cats died; Herodotus lied about that
Herodotus lied about a lot of things and many misconceptions about ancient Egypt can be traced back to his Greek ass
I canât believe I forgot my favourite Hill to Die On
Seth was not the god of âevilâ, and despite his chaos providing a foil to order, he wasnât completely villified until very late in Egyptian history, when he became associated with despised foreign enemies
Hats off to the few of you whoâre reblogging this with tags saying youâre going to check my claims later. You make me not entirely despair of this hellhole.
Here are some vetted Egyptological books/sources (that are by and large appropriate for a lay-audience) you can find most, if not all of the above:
Lehner, M., The Complete Pyramids
Wilkinson, R. H., The Complete Temples of Ancient Egypt
Hornung, E., The One and the Many: Conceptions of God in Ancient Egypt
