@wandydoodles if your friend nearly dies, but brushes it off and acts like its no big deal, do you not still think you should like support them and not ghost them through it? idk im just really not a fan of ghosting in general in most cases

What people always misunderstand about that arc is that the point wasn't Steven's decision being right or wrong, the issue is that he dismissed the impact it had on those around him and only realized its weight later. It was the whole purpose of the parallel with Dewey

@IceCreamFlower8 @wandydoodles facts. If i come back from a traumatising dangerous situation and my friends ghost me, theyre not my friends. Friends aren't some entertainment you can just turn off if it gets difficult

@wandydoodles This man Sacrificed himself if my friends first thought was to be mad at me and not ask how I’m doing then you’re not my friends?

@wandydoodles choose to ignore them. Connie is allowed to feel hurt and there is a time for them two to have that convo later, but Steven literally just came back from nearly dying. It was on Connie to be there for him as his loved one when he came back, even if she had her own grievances

@wandydoodles There's still time and place. If your loved one just came back from a horribly traumatising and dangerous situation, you don't make it about yourself and ghost his ass. I hate this "putting your needs" first attitude when applied to situation where a loved one needs you but you

@perifrog @wandydoodles facts

@wandydoodles She still made the situation about herself instead of being there when Steven needed moral support and saw Lars die. Her being hurt is completely justified, but she could've dealt with those feeling after everything got solved idk

@crazymadcatlady comfortable as male you'd stay male

@crazymadcatlady Yeah but we irl people are not all female, some of us as Gems would have male forms. The original post is asking whether youd prefer to be a Vultrumite or a Gem, and in the case that you'd be a gem you'd get to keep a body that you're comfortable with, meaning if you're

"you don't need to automatically be a female gem" ????? all gems are female-coded the only non-female gems are steven and his fusions

@SplatwtConfess How would an inktoling swim form even look some people forget these guys are fish and not humans with funny tentacle hairstyles

anon, im biracial too and this is so real

@SplatwtConfess Comparable to inkling and octoling species difference

@SplatwtConfess Comparing real life race to species is WILD, the whole point is that as humans we are all one people and there is no biological basis on which we can be cleanly separated. Racial categories are made up. Inklings and octolings are not different races they are different species

@SplatwtConfess Inklings and octolings should stay biologically distinct because that's what makes them interesting, they are inherintly non human and I hate when people treat them as basically humans. Also irl racial categories are made up and not based in any actual science, they are not

@SplatwtConfess I wouldn't say they're minimal, they just look similar because of convergent evolution. You could make this claim on several real life animals due to visual similarity and you'd be wrong

the differences between inklings and octolings are so minimal that I can’t imagine they’re incapable of reproducing. plus iirc humans are somewhat of a product of 7 different species in the homo genus. so.

@Emprider nah the manga butchers their designs lowk also their fins stick out straight, you wouldnt be able to see the ear on the other side in side profile

can i talk about how much i hate that the official inkfish models in artwork dont have the big ears sticking out on side profiles like coroika. it makes me so sad. i like their big dumb ears. where are they☹️☹️☹️

@pab03793283 @willyjwillyj they dont stop being what they are just because theyre a bad person. do you misgender c1s people who are horrible too? youre transphobic as hell wtf

@willyjwillyj It impresses me that even after all this, people, even the victims themselves, continue to call Shayy by his corresponding they/them pronouns. Damn, after all this, the least you can do is stop respecting him, right? He NO LONGER deserves ANY kind of respect from any community.

CW: Sexual assault, sexual harrassment, grooming, abusive While in the community, Shayy has committed reprehensible acts including grooming multiple fans and assaulting their now ex-partner. They are an active danger to the community. Please read docs.google.com/document/d/1k0…

@Midnerva Lowk yeah but Toriel stans wont accept that shes not always the best mother

There was a solid month where the Deltarune community genuinely thought the major plot point of Toriel neglecting her child and getting drunk was an isolated incident and that it definitely wasn't implied to be a common ocurrence by being given so much importance in the narrative

@AV_DND @gurtyaoi probably because statistically the vast majority of men are cis because being trans is much rarer

@gurtyaoi Not if the reason you hate men is because of the disproportionate amount of violence that is committed by them which is a problem via Cis men.

hating all c!s men but not trans men is actually transphobic

@jey_ceal @gurtyaoi a lot of people who hate c1s males bring up factors that trans males can also be a part of/ have, a lot of people just refuse to see trans males as men or as capable of being as "bad" as cis men bc they have a limited view of what a trans man is

@gurtyaoi no it isnt trans men more often than not have had experiences as women in their life just like how trans women have had experiences as men in their life that influence their perspectives and how they treat people compared to c1s men

@jey_ceal @Ultrakillpilled @gurtyaoi how do you know if a man you meet is cis or trans

@Ultrakillpilled @gurtyaoi forgot to say i personally am not hateful as much as i am weary of c1s men i meet and i dont think thats close minded at all theres a whole host of reasons both personal and not personal as to why its reasonable to be uncomfortable around those kinds of men and also 1/2

@gurtyaoi Trans male here, hating trans men but not cis men IS transphobic

@Arumikat I'm also not sure how canon it is that they can modify their bodies, afaik the only for sure canon physical modification is haircuts and ink colour, since we never see named characters change eye or bodyshape (aside from shifting forms)

If an inkling was born with no boobs, but they want boobs, would they just mold them out of ink, since their human form is literally just ink, and they can shapeshift and modify their body anytime they want
