Red, He/Him, ghost. Mixed white/metis transfag with more health problems than fingers - Go drink some water and WEAR YOUR FUCKING MASK - Sides: @red-ink-squiggles, @red-talkin-graves
Hi I’m Red. I love ttrpgs, I love trans men, and I love goth music. He/him exclusive to most, he/they for closer mutuals and transmasculinity posters. I use the terms man, fag, homosexual, and ghost for gender. I am over 18.
I don't tag anything but a few regular ones and my ocs, and occasionally post nsfw. If you're a minor or need trigger tags, best not to follow me. Not a formal DNI, just a 'keep yourself safe'.
I have a sideblog where I only post art: @red-ink-squiggles. And a sideblog where I post about horror: @red-talkin-graves.
Also: Fuck the UCP! If you ever put me in the same room as a UCP politician my cane is leaving dented and they're leaving with a head injury.
OC list:
Currently playing...
The ones being actively used as tabletop player characters right now. NPCs don't count, CaDi gets its own section.
Altair: A nervous boy with stars in his lungs, whose every breath heals those around him. Never seen without a knife.
The Garden/Lilium: A lonely changeling who's fallen head over heels in love with the same friends they're doomed to betray. See the below section.
Zephryne/Stag: A quiet and unhesitating monster hunter who struggles to talk with the same courage he has hunting.

The Garden...
A system with many facets and identities, each with a role to play.
Lilium(Host): Hasn't been active for decades, since even before meeting the ghosts. A particularly impactful event could bring him back, but who knows what sort of being he would be?
Faceless: The liar, the trickster, the hero. An idealist who craves a better world, no matter what that world costs.
Mentzelia: The defender, the lion, the avenger. A regal and brutal woman who will do anything to protect her other facets.
Nameless: The lover, the sacrifice, the shield. None of Lilium loves the party like they do, but it insists on a distance.
Asphodel: The grieving, the widow, the spectre. An entity that possesses other facets instead of fronting alone.
Pyr: The rotting, the reaper, the parasite. A man unable to be contained to one form or state, contradictory and efficient.
Rosin: The prey, the obsessor, the victim. Rosin will allow those they love to mistreat it in any way, just to see them smile.
The Groundskeeper: Something built of the memories of their spectral Knight. But it can never live up to him.
The classics...
Old ocs I re-make often, or ocs I'm otherwise very attached to.
Amarya: A tired ghost trying to balance his invesitgative work with his responsibilities as a psychopomp.
Emari: A dilfy trans vigilante who shapeshifts by absorbing metal and can talk his way out of (almost) any threat.
Del/Strix: A man with enemies in every corp, desperate to save their doomed and tragic lover.
Finch: A motherly villain who sculpts the flesh of both itself and others like clay- and is more than willing to craft horrors.
Dysphania/Mirval: A lonely warlock, saved from calamity by the same patron who now holds her magic.
Zephyr: A butch who turned to guarding just about anyone when a new power stole away her dream career.
Inkwell/Librarian: A woman forced into heroism too young, turning to villainy to free herself from the light.
Nova: A knight of the stars, redeemed from the strings of villainous parents through only his own scorching will.
Anhiza: A chosen cleric, prophesied martyr, willing to exist within any story except for his own.
Rat Kings: A collection of strange little men who know too much, and who are all too willing to use that knowledge.

Morbid Anne: The Watcher. A panopticon made divine.
Elahiir: The Serpent. A dragon who held the future between his teeth.
Kera: The Night. Living weapon made mourning patron of the Burrow.
Lukra: The Shapeshifter. A god as loving as it is cruel, as protective as it is vengeful.
Avhrena: The Herd. A fearful and desperate girl unprepared to be divine.
Mikra: The Selkie. Once a survivor and healer, now only shards of a story.
Qirik: The Selkie. Once a survivor and warrior, her last breaths threaten to freeze the known world.
The Backups...
I make several per game.
Anadarach: Detective made host to morh-shaped psychopomps, studying monsters known for curses.
Ceanoth: Once cards in a fortune teller's hands, now a mischievous psychic trying to ignore their own troubles.
Uh. Guy: A failed experiment ofcthw Garden's strange benefactor, dead-set on vengeance.
The video games...
If a game has character creation abilities, I will play as an oc.
Seri: A gothic adventurer, and grandson of a lunar hare, though he mostly seems interested in growing flowers.
Zephyra: An older changeling, scarred from years of human aggression and slowly learning to trust again.

You know how some grandparents are called Meemaw and Peepaw? I was thinking of non-binary alternatives and came up with Neenaw for a loud nonbinary grandparent, and Seesaw for a gender-fluid grandparents.

We gotta hit pause on society until everyone learns to use POV correctly. Don’t use this term then frame what you’re showing me in a third person or omniscient viewpoint. Let’s use our brains a bit.
I WAS FUCKING WONDERING WHAT THOSE DIGITAL PRICE TAGS WERE ABOUT SUDDENLY i had hoped they were so the workers didn't have to finagle those little papers into the slider part anymore 😭
Hi, yes, that is the OFFICIAL excuse made to me by the guy replacing the paper tags with digital ones at my local Walmart, but the end goal is to remove the numbers off the shelf entirely, replacing them with QR codes that you have to scan with the app…. Which requires your login information….. and also stores your card information so even if you didn’t use your Walmart account at the physical checkout, if you used a card they recognize, they assign that purchase to your Walmart account purchase history.
I explained very clearly to the manager my issue with the meat section not having the price tags listed, and they claimed it was only going to be for the meat, since meat is by weight, and the price of each item is printed on the packs of each item.
Sure. That’s how they get their foot in the door. Fast forward not even two weeks, and here we are:
Bar codes. No prices, no item descriptions. No price stickers on the individual items. Heck, not even the name of the item that is SUPPOSED to be there.
No. The only way to see the price is to scan it on your phone app, which is also recording what you looked at recently, as a way of gauging what you might be looking for in the future.
So here’s what we’re gonna do gang:
Every time you go into a store that has implemented these price-less tags:
Take 1-3 items up to the cash register. Ask the cashier for the price, or hit the price check item on the self checkout, which will likely call over the attendant.
Express that you didn’t actually want it, you just couldn’t see on the shelf how much it was.
POLITELY, AND WITH A THANK YOU FOR THE PRICE CONFIRMATION, Give the items to the cashier or attendant to put back.
When they inevitably try to push the app, politely decline. If pressed for why not, say you don’t want to have to carry your phone in-hand the whole time you are shopping in order to see how much things cost. (Not having cell service or data to use the app is NOT a valid excuse, as stores already often have complimentary WiFi AND more stores will provide WiFi rather than give up on this push for surveillance pricing)
If it’s a shelf-stable item, the cashier will have to set it aside, taking up room in their limited operating space, and eventually pass it off to someone to put in a holding area to put back later. If it’s a fridge/freezer item, it might have to get tossed due to food product sale regulations.
In either case, you are making it a pain in the ass for them to have these digital bar codes. Tie up the checkouts. Give the employees more busywork that the company has to pay them to do. Hurt their bottom line having to toss the pint of ice cream you carried around in your cart for 20 minutes before giving it back to the cashier.
Yes, call your reps. Yes, push for more legislation like this in more places. But also take an extra minute out of your shopping trip to MAKE IT HURT for companies to pull this shit.
yes, India made legal gender change impossible
but the doctor down the street who gives me my T shots
in a clinic so small that it's just two rooms
was excited for me when she said my voice had dropped
yes, India made legal gender change impossible
but the receptionist who could see that I was a man
didn't bat an eyelash when I asked to see the gynecologist
and called me sir when he asked how I wanted to pay
yes, India made legal gender change impossible
but the barber cuts my hair exactly how I want it
and never gave me strange looks for being in a men's salon
not even back when I didn't pass as one
yes, India made legal gender change impossible
but my friends have always gendered me correctly
and stick to it even when it confuses other people
and my friend's little sibling calls me older brother in Kannada
yes, India made legal gender change impossible
but my dog learned my new name quicker than the humans
and she runs to give me a kiss when she's told to
without being confused about who's being referred to
yes, India made legal gender change impossible
but I can feel the Adam's apple growing in my throat
and my muscles getting stronger, and my smile more real
and I'm growing a beard, and I talk more freely
yes, India made legal gender change impossible
but I'm here, and I'm alive, and so are you
and there are good people, people who care
and don't let them make you forget that--
you are not alone.

being anti-amatonormativity in a romance centered world is like watching half the people you know put all their eggs in one basket and then drop the basket and all their eggs break and they’re crying and swearing they’re never gonna do that again and then a month later they have all new eggs in a new basket and they tell you the problem was they didn’t have a strong enough basket or fresh enough eggs and then they drop the fucking basket again.
I'm not even saying you have to talk to every single person you meet. and you're certainly not going to LIKE all of them. but every person does have a rich interior life and complex feelings and unique worldview. sorry.
this is truly one of the most tumblr posts i've ever seen. i know chronically online people exist in all corners of the internet but i feel like this is the only place where someone could say something as uncontroversial as "you will find out that people have personalities when you talk to them" and get responses like "oh so you're making the ABLEIST assertion that i should FORCE MYSELF to push past my SOCIAL ANXIETY to talk to BIGOTS????" amazing work, guys
when it's 90 degrees outside you really understand why a cold glass of apple juice is better than sex, hormones, gaming, and every fish in the world combined.
the "empathy fatigue" stuff is also very revealing because when you examine health professionals' self-reporting on the matter there is a specific type of person they describe losing empathy for- unsurprisingly, it's people with particularly chronic health issues and disability, drug users, people who "refuse to take care of themselves" and especially anyone with a health condition perceived to be "their own fault". very often what they describe as "empathy fatigue" is actually just the mask slipping on the seething contempt they already held
oh, during burnout you happen to feel less empathetic toward criminals, alcoholics, teens and drug users? that's really interesting and i feel so sorry for how hard your job must be that its caused these feelings in you.

I love when little creatures who are entirely loved and well cared for have the BIGGEST baby reactions to normal things. Like yes sweet pea, you DO have the hardest life of anyone ever, for sure, and you’re SO BRAVE about this minor inconvenience of *checks notes* having some water touch you
There is nothing sadder and more pathetic than a baby marine mammal having to get into the water. They are suffering the most out of any baby animal ever. How dare they be introduced to their natural environment.
hi, filipino here. just want to say that our independence day is june 12, not july 4. july 4 is when the united states government decided that they would recognize our freedom, specifically because it is your independence day and they wanted to cement their cultural hegemony over our country. and because of their influence on our country this was recognized for a time as our independence day. we still commemorate it, but i hope you can understand why we don’t want our independence day to be associated so closely with our former colonizer. it wasn’t even a work holiday for us.
june 12 is the day that we filipinos declared our own independence for ourselves, and that is what we celebrate as independence day
