The thoughts of a chaotic and very gay writer

@achilleanauthor

Any pronouns (Demiboy). INFJ. I write, draw, read, vibe and just generally be a nerd. This is a safe space for anyone LGBTQIA+. I have no interest in discourse.

New introduction post for my silly little blog!!!

Name: Auvryl/Auv

Age: 18

Sexuality: Very Gay - I also use the term achillean.

Gender/Pronouns: Demiboy right now, although we'll see what the lore decides in the future. I don't care about pronouns much, but he/they/it are the main ones I use.

My blog: A place for me to be really gay and reblog anything that interests my little squirrel brain. My yearning posts will be tagged as auv is gay, and anything else will be tagged as auv speaks.

Interests: I like reading and writing and I love music. I often hyperfocus on a few pieces of media at a time. Amongst others, I like Stranger Things, Heartstopper, DHMIS, NITW and Hollow Knight.

Although there is a bit of an mlm/nblm/nb mlm focus here, my blog is a safe space for all kinds of queer and trans people (and that means all. Aromantic/Asexual? Polyamorous? Xenogender? Mspec gay/lesbian? Welcome aboard.) This is also an accepting place for anyone who is disabled/neurodivergent.

Asks: I like asks. There are a few ask games on my blog that you can choose from with the Ask me things tag. You can ask anything anonymously if you're more comfortable!

WIP: I'm writing a novel! It's called Nightlight and it's a queer post-apocalyptic fantasy story. I mostly talk about it on my side blog, @the-narrator-plague. Posts I make about it here will be tagged as Nightlight. Anyone who wants to talk about it, I'd be happy to chat in DM's!

DNI: Any kinds of homophobes or transphobes, MAPS, transmeds, ableists, racists and TERFs can just leave. This is not the place for you.

Please Reblog is Your Blog is Safe for Non-Binary People.

thanks for tagging me!

disclaimer: i have no idea who tf mac anderson is

yay thx for tagging me!!

ps i cant pick favorites

npt!

Thank you very much for the tag!!!

As you can tell, I had zero restraint. I love so many of these guys, and I didn't do a good job of setting a standard for myself

Np tags:

@very-original-writer @inscribedxlikexstone and anyone else who wants to join (I didn't want to tag people who may not have read any of Alice Oseman's works)

I wanna try and start a new thing. You can’t see anyone’s followers counts, so I just have a few mutuals that I, based on nothing, assume are just famous. Let’s start a chain to just show people how cool we think they are.

YES YOU ARE A CELEB

@waitingforthesunrise is definitely a celebrity everyone knows this.

mine are @paysomeonetopaysomeone @flowersforfrancis @lalallorona @gooseberry--fool @axquiva and @readyafterthesunrise but like i probably have a bunch of others i've just forgotten

HOLY FUCKING SHIT YALL THINK IM A CELEBRITY HERE

anywaysss uhm mine are @lalallorona @angerycat @ruhlare @strawberryloveyyy my parents who are further up in the chain <333 and @voiz-ki-laash @aphroditesanxiety love y'all <33

I had to do a double take... You consider me a celebrity??? I'm beyond honoured omg

that's very nice of you, i wouldn't consider myself a celeb but seriously, thank you.

there are people i follow, most of which have been mentioned above that like, hardly ever interact with my posts so i have no clue if we're moots or not but i'm going to tag them anyway.

@givemea-dam-break @waitingforthesunrise (surprisingly, those two are some of the least scary people ever??) @iknowitwontwork @treasureofmy-heart @a-portal-to-nowhere @internetsfavoritedaughter @lalallorona @locklylemybeloved there's more but they've been tagged already and like, you guys are really intimidating, you know that?

thank you! i'm like, not even a little famous, but this was very nice

This is the closest to fame I'll ever be I want to thank my 13 mutuals and my mom

@meaningtotellyou @a-king-named-lear @internetsfavoritedaughter (tagging you back!!! You famous blogger you!!) @marissasummers

this is so sweet and wholesome for mutuals ahhh 🥺 thank you. this is why i love not being able to see follower counts. it helps bring more interaction w/ mututals i think. i'm probably forgetting ppl (i'm sorry!!) but I'm tagging

OH MY GOD THANK YOU SOOO MUCH

MOM, I'M A CELEBRITY (i'm not but anyways)

OML THANKS BBG, ILL TELL MY GRANDMA THAT IM FAMOUS WITH MY 104(?) FOLLOWERS <33

DO I COUNT AS FAMOUS I HAVE 53 (?) FOLLOWERS <333

I ONLY HAVE 20 FOLLOWERS IM NOT FAMOUS-

oh my god i wouldn’t consider myself famous 😭 i have 400 something followers, does that make me famous, i don’t think so

Im not famous-

I dont even know how many followers I've got, I think about 30 something

Thank you for your belief on my stardom, however I think my follower count is like. 32.

Me? I have like 67

@buggiessss1019 (I know that's biased because she's my girlfriend and my favourite person, but she seems more famous than me) @fraudfrogs @p0patochisps @whatthefr0g @aledradio @achilleanauthor you guys are super cool so you must be famous

Thank you for calling me famous, I think you're famous as well (the follower count means nothing to me;)

theres this function that content warnings serve that i think is really, really underappreciated and its not just as a warning for those who wouldnt want to read it, but as a function of like. acknowledgement that you are writing about said topics, like. i'm pretty laissez-faire about putting content warnings on pages of my comic but i know for certain there is stuff i'm going to have to tag very thoroughly.

and like. i think people would be more receptive of content warnings and be more willing to if it wasnt something slapped on to satisfy "pearl-clutchers" or "antis" or whatever phrase we're using to talk around the phrase "triggered sjw" today, but acted as an extension of a summary or elevator pitch, like.

a content warning can be extremely valuable in building a confidence that an author is knowing what the fuck they're doing, which is way, way more relevant to a text than literally anything else, like. im not against reading a story where sexual assault or something similarly gnarly happens, but i definitely don't want to read someone pissing and shitting their way around sexual assault like an idiot and someone saying "hey im going here" is a great heuristic for whether someones a fucking idiot or not

"i'm not triggered or upset by or even ideologically opposed to it, i just associate it with something so bad that i can't enjoy it anymore" is such a frustrating relationship to have with a piece of media

walmart insulin is a synthetic insulin which is different from analog (novolog, humalog etc) and has a much much longer active time, which forces you to follow an extremely strict diet in order to avoid hypoglycemic episodes (i take novolog which starts working around 15 minutes after taking it, and synthetic stays in your system for up to 8 hours with a peak at 4 hours) so take walmart insulin with a grain of salt…it’s not a long term solution.

i could have sworn ive been following you for over a year but ??? apparenrly not??? maybe unfollowed by accident??? very confused but anyways hi

Hi, thank you for following! I really like your blog, so I consider it a great honour! (Mostly joking)

If there was a way to run SUPER MEGA AD BLOCKER on this website I fucking would

“Please oh please open up your computer to a porn virus! If you don’t you’re evil!”

Freeloader Comin’ through!

We didn’t start this war internet users have with ads - We might have moaned about banner ads, but it was only when they started making noises when we might be listening to music or a podcast or whatever, causing two sound sorces at once, that we started trying to block ads universally rather than just a specific type of ad (pop ups).

And since then ads have gotten worse - Actual malware rather than merely breaking one of the fundamental sins of web design - though shalt not autoplay anything with sound. And the more aggressive a website is with ‘please turn off adblock’ the less I trust it to bother to vet ads and advertisers to make sure they’re not installing malware.

Not to mention that the idea that avoiding ads is “freeloading” is hilariously backward. Advertisement is a transaction between the platform and the advertiser, the user has no obligation to provide the views/clicks the platform has promised. Using an adblocker isn’t freeloading in the same way that leaving the room to get a snack during a commercial break isn’t cheating the tv network.

Ok y’all, I work as a web developer and I’m here to tell you that you are 100% right and that it’s shit. SO I’m going to tell you how to get around websites that block you from using their website if you’re using an adblocker. 

Every website uses a language called JavaScript; long story short it’s a website language that allows developers to do the crazy shit you see on websites. Now the easiest thing to do is to disable JavaScript to stop them from knowing you have an adblocker:

Oh no! I’m blocked from viewing the website. It would be a terrible shame if I were able to right click and select the “inspect” feature

Click the three dots in the top right and open the “Settings” Menu

And then scrolled down to “Debugger” and checked the “Disable Javascript Option”

And then just refreshed the page
