maybe a violent take of mine but regardless of whatever opinions one has about the new mdzs revisions, i hope you (@ the fandom) do realize that even if there was love between them, it doesn't mean that lan xichen and lan wangji were not born of violence. they were. it doesn't matter that they were in love or whatever (and i hate this. but unimportant to the point) she was locked up in the fucking gentian house and kept in there her entire life until she died and we don't even know what her personality was like for someone who killed qingheng-jun's teacher. like you do understand that this is a forced captivity situation anyway right. why are people calling this sweet and reassuring that "the jades were not born of violence" YES THEY WERE. who the fuck cares about whether they were in love or not

idk man i agree that nsfw isnt anything inherently worse than violence but — having been a kid who has obviously been in spaces i shouldnt have been in — i feel like allowing minors into nsfw spaces often gets adults into serious, often legal trouble they just arent equipped to handle. i dont think its being a dick to say that i dont want minors on my 18+ discord server or fandom event or whatever knowing the kind of shit that can happen to someone just trying to have a normal time online. and yeah this is why we need spaces for kids now more than ever but i dont think the answer is to let them do things that will get us into terrible trouble for literally no reason
As summer is approaching, I’d like to remind everyone that you are not entitled to ask someone to cover up their scars, self inflicted or not. I don’t care if they’re big, I don’t care if they’re noticeable, or purple, or all over their body, or what. You can’t police people’s bodies.
This also goes for my friends with feeding tubes, ostomy bags, central lines and urinary catheters. People are allowed exist in bodies that stray from the expected norm.
Shout-out to aromantic people whose lives are so fucking busy that they periodically forget what day of the week it is. today is Wednesday, June 5th. Happy Aromantic Visibility Day.

when i was younger i had a really bad fear of danny devito when i was going to sleep so my older brother gave me a watch that he set to like 8 hours ahead so that it was always daytime on the watch when i was asleep and he told me it would confuse danny devito and he would think it was daytime and get scared of the sun and leave me alon
new tumblr thing - if this toggle is on, people can see the replies you leave on posts (including other people's posts) in the "comments" section of your blog (your blog likely only has a "posts" section but may also have "likes" and "following" visible if you haven't turned those off). like this:
(screenshot grabbed from an abandoned blog)
it was off by default for me but may be on for you if you have your likes/following set to visible! (edit: OR EVEN IF NOT, APPARENTLY? if you don’t want them then please check just in case.) if you want to change the current setting you can go to tumblr.com/settings/blog/[your blog name here]/
about to say something possibly unfair and definitely cunty but i can smell from a fucking mile away when somebody was raised in a comfortable liberal family and has never had to face like actual conservatism from family and community members. it's like trying to talk to a child who thinks they know everything and thinks that you're stupid for not understanding their genius idea of how to fix every problem in the world. and you can't just tell them they're ignorant because they're a Child you have to spoon-feed it to them like well it Would be nice if i could stay home all day! but i have to go to work so we can have money to buy toys and food and go to the movies :) and the child is like you HATE ME why don't you just get money WITHOUT going to work >:(
but instead of trying to explain capitalism to a child you're trying to explain to someone from portland that you cannot easily convince people who see themselves as your betters and believe it's their responsibility to Teach You What's Right that they are actually wrong about their most deeply held beliefs and have been wrong all their lives. and that it is actually very difficult and often harmful to cut your entire family out of your life forever. and that sometimes we love people who are wrong about things. and that being wrong about things does not make these people irredeemably evil and unworthy of human kindness. and the person from portland is just like ummm you obviously are just performative and if you Actually cared about what's right you would voluntarily abandon your entire family and support system forever and leave them all to rot

Icewings are fucked up like horses and no other tribes know
so. This is my head canon that since
1: for twenty years Icewings were completely isolated from the other tribes and probably even longer before that due to losing the jewelry that let others through the wall
2: they believe themselves to be superior and would probably be very private about the details of their tribe
And 3: all other tribes of dragons emit warmth and heat while Icewings inexplicably emit cold? + a bunch of other weird stuff
Taking this information I like to believe that the anatomy and biology of Icewings is super fucked up and weird compared to the other tribes and none of the other tribes know.
*science stuff + individual cases underneath the cut*
Icewings have blue blood, this is common knowledge yes. But the effects of this are not. Blue blood actually helps with living in cold environments which makes sense but it also allows survival in extremely low oxygen environments. So theoretically Icewings can probably fly even higher than Skywings since they can survive in the thin air of the upper atmosphere. No Icewings have tried to do that yet because it's incredibly tiring to fly that high with their wings but still. It could happen.
Not only that but blue blood helps the immune system against bacteria. So Icewings are basically immune to most illnesses caused by bacteria, but I like to think that this would make them more susceptible to viruses that the other tribes treat like the common cold (this would probably also be due to their isolation)
In addition, due to their incredibly light color they are probably amazing at hunting fish and diving for prey. This would work similarly to how white grizzly bears are more successful ambush fishers because the fish don't see the shadow of the bear due to light reflecting off their fur. Not only that but Icewings have serrated claws which are perfect for fish. This would work similarly in the sky and could possibly even work to blind prey with their reflective scales.
Despite their tendency to prefer cold environments Icewings don't actually overheat in the desert/sun easily. Their light colored scales would reflect the sunlight, like how blonde people's heads don't get as hot in the sun as brown or black haired people. Just imagine Moon and Winter in the desert with Qibli and Moon is suffering in the heat with her black scales and she feels bad for Winter who must be suffering far more than her... and he's just fine, mildly annoyed by the sun in his eyes while no one can look straight at him because he's like staring at a sheet of white snow on a sunny day (very bright if you didn't know). The only reason he disliked the rainforest so much was because of the humidity - the tundra of the Icewings Kingdom would be incredible arid.
Finally the most fucked up thing about Icewings: instead of body heat they somehow emit cold. Which is impossible due to cold being the simple absence of heat and therefore being unable to be "emitted" (I am not explaining thermodynamics but it's the reason the outside of your freezer/fridge might get hot, it's actually absorbing the heat). So, they must therefore be absorbing and retaining heat in their bodies. That's the real reason they can survive in such cold places - their body retains heat at a much higher rate than the other tribes. The reason the air feels cold around them is because they are absorbing all of the heat around them into their body. This also is compatible with frostbreath, the Icewings absorb as much heat as possible from an organ in their throat, making their saliva freeze, creating frost breath. This is also why they must be in a cold enough place to do it - if they do it somewhere too warm then they will actually over heat as they absorb way too much heat as opposed to getting frozen from over usage. (This intense control over their body heat would also lead to some interesting effects when it comes to fevers) I don't really have a scenario for this except maybe Clay takes the internal temperature of an Icewing student as a part of a check up and actually freaks the hell out at how high it is, having expected a lower number to the averages of other tribes.
Some less scientific and more silly example of weird things Icewings can do in my mind:
Their extra "horns" shaped like icicles? They're actually just really big scales and will fall off and shed after a while. Imagine one of Winter's "horns" is loose and it's annoying him so in the middle of breakfast he just reaches back and pulls it off. The rest of the winglet starts thinking that Winter's dying and are freaking the fuck out, meanwhile Winter has like eight of these hidden in his bed.
Their long tail is not prehensile but they can grab things with it by whipping it around an object and may be able to use it as a grapple weapon. Qibli wanders off from the group and is stopped by a thin white tail winding around his arm and dragging him back.
Finally something that's more cute and has special applications for a funny romance scene: Icewings would blush blue not red. Since their blood is blue they would flush to a light or dark blue instead of the red the other tribes would. And while this may seem self explanatory it is easily forgotten or simply not figured out by the other tribes. I specifically believe Qibli, despite his common sense, would not be able to put two and two together. Instead of figuring out that Winter keeps getting flustered around him Qibli genuinely believes that Winter is sick or something because he's holding his breath around him (red blooded creatures turn "blue" with lack of oxygen).
“Tell them,” his son says, soft, low, promising pain. “Tell them exactly what you were planning.”
(He won’t make it out of this alive.)
The thing is: Arctic is prepared to die for his crimes at this point, so it’s with vitriol that he allows the spell to will him into admitting his plans to sell off his daughter—admitting that he would have been the reason for the genocide of the entire tribe.
the end of arctic, as narrated by the prince himself.
