Any advice on exploring the more masc side of the gender expression spectrum? Anything specific that you enjoy?
hmm. general advice for exploring would be to find a queer therapist if that's available to you (obviously i understand that access is difficult, but it's sososo helpful if u can access that care). beyond that, just like... don't worry about labels/pronouns etc unless they REALLY matter to you. personally i think most of that is western shit & i don't really care at all about "my gender" or "my pronouns" so much as i do like... my personhood. so general advice is to lean into what makes you feel comfortable & at ease, in any areas of your life you can control. clothes, hairstyles, makeup/no makeup, whatever — just ask yourself, like, does this make me feel good? does this make me feel happy? & if the answer is yes, roll with it.
specific shit i enjoy — well this is obvious but i love like very high quality tailored earth tones, especially cotton & linen. i live less than a mile from the beach so linen is like my favorite fabric on the planet lol; im always happy when i find pants i like. i rly enjoy stores where i can shop in both men's & women's & just find stuff that fits the best without caring abt the "gender" of the clothes, so i tend to like a lot of basics & streetwear. definitely try out a binder (SAFELY) if you're interested; i think everyone should buzz their hair at least once in their lifetime so i highly recommend that. i love naps, hiking, starting to pursue titles in dog sports w charli, my partner, trying to tend to my little garden, women's sports, & cooking — & i list those things bc they make me feel comfortable & happy & at ease too; they make me feel like a whole person, which always helps me feel more settled into a ton of different facets of my identity. it's also fun to follow people you think have great style to help u figure out what expression u like too.

I see Hollywood is now very into the idea of buying something once and then owning it forever and being able to make infinite copies. Which. Isn’t quite the message they imparted upon me in my childhood. In the spirit of their own long-held stance:
Come on Tumblr, don’t be fucking cowards
Alternatively - come on nameless intern #102, you have a chance to be the fucking funniest person on staff.
cowards
Time for manual blazing, tumblr can be a coward but they can't stop us.

I can’t really post it as a poll bc it’s more of an Essay Question, but I’m curious:
What was the first queer fictional character you can remember seeing or reading about? If you can’t remember the first, then just think back as far as you can. For me I think it was Captain Jack Harkness.
You don’t own fanfics. They’re inherently public domain because they aren’t your IP. Agree or disagree with AI, there are no grounds for “protection” from AI because it isn’t your IP to begin with. That’s what you chose when you chose this medium
Oh dear.
Okay, you get an answer, because at least you took the effort to write your ask out properly, even if you are hiding behind the grey, sunglassed circle.
Do I, or any fanfic author for that matter, have any legal claims to our work? No, not really, no. (Although if someone took a fic, filed off the serial number--deleted the fandom specific elements--, and then had it published for financial gain, yeah, that would be a case.)
BUT
Fandoms are built on a social contract that says we respect each others work, the effort people put into their art. We don't steal or disrespect the work of our peers. By feeding people's fanworks to AI you both steal and disprect it, and we need to make people realize that before it's too late--before fandom falls apart, because there will be no more real, actual fanworks.
Disrepectfully,

(i can't believe I have to say this)
Also this is not true. You do in fact have the copyright to the specific writing you did in a fic, because that's not how copyright law works. Like this is not a grey area.
People who write IP content for corporations give up their copyright on a contractual basis--the company wants writing they can sell about characters/settings they own without getting entangled in royalty obligations etc, so they hire people. Who sign contracts saying they don't own what they write as part of that job.
That's why you don't own Star Wars stuff you wrote for Disney; you specifically agreed not to own it.
Writing for IP you don't own leaves you in a position where you can't legally monetize it (without taking out the Owned parts ad rebranding), but it absolutely does not automatically cede or void copyright. That is super not a thing.
SUPER not a thing, I cannot say this enough.
I can't sell my Batman fic, but neither can DC Comics without my duly authorized consent. Because they own Batman, but not the prose I composed about him.
Do not perform that kind of massive corporate overreach for them. Holy shit. Do they not own enough.
It’s fascinating that this misconception of copyright still exists. Haven’t we all seen the posts on here where authors beg fans to please not send them fanfic of their works? They’re not doing that because they feel like it, they do that because fans legally own their words and ideas, and an author who takes them even unintentionally can in fact end up in real legal trouble for taking something that’s not theirs. It doesn’t matter whether they own the canon.
This.
Copyright is the most basic of protections for all writers. If there’s anything professional/career writers want spread around, it’s the knowledge that all writers have the same protections that copyright confers on us.
Astonishing indeed that anon would attempt to upbraid somebody on copyright issues when, themselves, they understand them so poorly.
I cannot stress enough to Tumblr staff that they do not need to change the site. Do not try to be like Twitter. Do not try to be like Reddit. Do not alter how this site works.
Tumblr will be the most popular social media site if they continue letting all these other sites implode

so you’re telling me that “stuck a feather in his hat and called it macaroni” would be like saying “wrote a G on his belt and called it gucci”
that’s…a pretty good analogy actually
US moron came to town
Hunting for some coochie
Wrote a G up on his belt
And this bitch called it Gucci
