Reblog if you think a woman can be complete without children
Y’ALL HAVE TIME TO REBLOG THIS. IT TAKES LESS THAN FIVE SECONDS.
I’m crying because when my dad was eighteen he was going to join the airforce and then the night before he had a dream that Jesus slapped him in the face with a gigantic fish and asked him what he was doing and he woke up and thought, “Jesus is right what am I doing?” And that’s why my dad did not join the military.

Nobody asked, so here I am
Spotify playlist
Songs that describe my OC (at least, I guess)
You've no authority, just a malignant tongue You're not so eloquent without the pages you stole from No messiah, not fit to serve The pupil never becomes the master if they never learn A self-proclaimed healer, self-made cult leader You can't fix the broken If you don't understand the problem A sorry state of affairs, oh, God, what a mess Poison for the lost, corruption of trust Out of your depth, save your breath Climb down from your cross Poison for the lost, corruption of trust Remove your ego now, take off that fucking crown
Like a deer in the headlights I'm barely alive Lost in the ether Cutting my teeth on whatever it takes to survive Suffer; everyone's a victim Cover your callous indifference Deaf are we who refuse to listen I need a shock to the system Fall short in your breathing Eyes wide, I stare at the ceiling No fear and no feeling I've seen enough and it's left me numb One more for the reaper, he's been hot on my tail But I've been trying to dig a little deeper Cause the pain don't feel like it used to feel, no I've seen enough, I crave the rush So I'll dig a little deeper still
It doesn’t matter if you’re wrong or right It doesn’t matter what they say It only matters who you satellite Everything else permanently stripped away Who are you? Malignant or benign? Would you sell out your brother to save your own life? Or neglect your own safety to save him from his plight? Who will you be when your life starts to spin into the void?
Einmal nur am Leben sein, auch wenn wir uns zerstören Keiner will's gewesen sein, ich kann es nicht mehr hören Einmal nur am Leben sein, auch wenn wir dann krepieren Jeder kann der nächste sein, wir haben nichts zu verlieren

Lass mich einfach nur in Frieden Lass mich so sein wie ich bin Lass mich einfach nur in Frieden Fass mich nicht an

It's Time To Investigate SevenArt.ai
sevenart.ai is a website that uses ai to generate images.
Except, that's not all it can do.
It can also overlay ai filters onto images to create the illusion that the algorithm created these images.
And its primary image source is Tumblr.
It scrapes through the site for recent images that are at least 10 days old and has some notes attached to it, as well as copying the tags to make the unsuspecting user think that the post was from a genuine user.
No image is safe. Art, photography, screenshots, you name it.
Initially I thought that these are bots that just repost images from their site as well as bastardizations of pictures across tumblr, until a user by the name of @nataliedecorsair discovered that these "bots" can also block users and restrict replies.
Not only that, but these bots do not procreate and multiply like most bots do. Or at least, they have.
The following are the list of bots that have been found on this very site. Brace yourself. It's gonna be a long one:

The oldest ones have been created in March, started scraping in June/July, and later additions to the family have been created in July.
So, I have come to the conclusion that these accounts might be run by a combination of bot and human. Cyborg, if you will.
But it still doesn't answer my main question:
Who is running the whole operation?
The site itself gave us zero answers to work with.
No copyright, no link to the engine where the site is being used on, except for the sign in thingy (which I did.)
I gave the site a fake email and a shitty password.
Turns out it doesn't function like most sites that ask for an email and password.
Didn't check the burner email, the password isn't fully dotted and available for the whole world to see, and, and this is the important thing...
My browser didn't detect that this was an email and password thingy.
And there was no log off feature.
This could mean two things.
Either we have a site that doesn't have a functioning email and password database, or that we have a bunch of gullible people throwing their email and password in for people to potentially steal.
I can't confirm or deny these facts, because, again, the site has little to work with.
The code? Generic as all hell.
Tried searching for more information about this site, like the server it's on, or who owned the site, or something. ANYTHING.
Multiple sites pulled me in different directions. One site said it originates in Iceland. Others say its in California or Canada.
Luckily, the server it used was the same. Its powered by Cloudflare.
Unfortunately, I have no idea what to do with any of this information.
If you have any further information about this site, let me know.
Until there is a clear answer, we need to keep doing what we are doing.
Spread the word and report about these cretins.
If they want attention, then they are gonna get the worst attention.
8, 13, and 26 on the OC ask game for Nord
Thanks for the ask)
For this ask game!
8. What caused their trauma if they have any?
His trauma likely centers around his experiences in the Marines, where he witnessed and endured violence and loss. Bro got PTSD.
13. What is their deepest, darkest fear and how did it come about?
Deepest fear is the fear of vulnerability—of letting someone in only to be abandoned or betrayed. Growing up in an environment where love was conditional and affection rare, Alex learned to rely only on himself in general. This is what makes him maintain distance from others, even as he yearns for connection.
26. Do they want to be remembered when they're gone? What would they like to be remembered as?
I think he probably has mixed feelings about being remembered. He might hope to be remembered as a man who, though distant, was deeply principled and reliable.
– "Well, if I die, I'll die. Nobody gives a shit."
Spoiler*: I have a scene of his death. But with an open ending.
Mmmm, why not? About Alex and Caleb ofc

CoD Military Realism References
UPDATED 05JUL24
For those of you who want to take your fic writing realism (or general military knowledge) to the next level, here is a compilation of real-world, declassified military documents ranging from field manuals to military academy graduate theses all pulled from the Internet Archive. If you're looking for something specific, I highly recommend browsing through their military collection, as they have handbooks on every military topic imaginable, including specific weapons and military operations.
All of these are incredibly outdated because all of the in-date stuff is still classified. That being said, some of these are more outdated than others. Use them at your own discretion and don’t feel obligated to make every detail of your fic entirely accurate. Fic writing is supposed to be fun for everyone involved. Don’t let the real world intricacies of the military distract you from making those military men kiss sloppy style 🖤

honestly? I can deal with men being misogynistic–it's something I can live with as well as something that doesn't surprise you. I have no expectations in this regard, and to be completely honest I don't have any expectations from women either lmao 😭😭😭 and from no one in general, if I'm being honest
but, BUT.
when you consider yourself a feminist, calling yourself one, claiming "uwu i luv women ladies girlies so much >o<" and then process to push out the most misogynistic bullshit, putting women (fictional or not) in some kind of dumb ass limits, fueling stereotypes about "masculine army girls", "conventionally attractive means stupid and incapable", " she can't do this, she can't do that"... that will never stop amaze me.
like, who are you fighting sis?.. 😭😭😭
I personally don't feel disappointed with that, but I DO think it makes people with this kind of rhetoric look hella stupid and just jealous
