I think I speak for the community when I say that none of us want the group chats gone. They are a great way to connect with each other and find like-minded people without it being completely public, out in the open for everyone to see, not to mention most of us have many interests, so our accounts are not dedicated to only one thing. Group chats enable us to talk about specific interests without clogging the timelines of people that share our other interests with topics they don’t care about. Group chat members are already starting to make lists of usernames on other websites and apps such as Instagram to keep in touch with each other there, or even sharing their phone numbers to make them on WhatsApp, which I am sure you agree may put people (especially minors) at risk. We would like to see this feature stay. At the very least, we deserve a real explanation as to why this is being taken away. We will not be quiet until we get to keep this feature or until you provide an explanation. Thank you.

If your biggest problem is the way somebody else decides to describe their sexuality, identity or expression, please get some goddamn perspective.
Are you pissed that some people identify as omni, ply, pan, multi, ambi, abro, fluid, homoflexible, heteroflexible, m-spec, etc?
Do you get mad when somebody who is into multiple genders but not into all genders - who isn't into one of the binary genders, even - calls themself bi?
Do you blame people calling themselves m-spec lesbians and m-spec gays for straight people's homophobia?
Does it piss you off to see people calling themselves homoromantic bisexual, panromantic heterosexual, etc? Do you try to stop other people from using the Split Attraction Model because you personally found it unhelpful for your identity?
Does it irk you that people call themselves, their experiences and their community queer?
Do you try to limit who can or can't use butch and femme?
Do you get mad at m-spec people calling themselves fags and dykes?
Do you hate that there's people calling themselves aro, ace, demi, aego, akoi, etc? That we don't consider ourselves "basically straight"?
Do you blame nonbinary people for cis people's transphobia?
Do labels like dittogender, chaotigender, autigender, etc annoy you?
Do you hate that people are constantly finding new ways of describing their personal experiences, new labels to use, new pronouns too?
Do you hate that there's people having fun with their identities instead of putting themselves in established, sufficiently respectable boxes?
Do you get mad at people using acronyms like QUILTBAG, MOGAI, LSBTI, LADT, HBTQ, etc? Do you harrass people from other countries over it?
If you answered "yes" to any of these, here's a reality check:
The way other people describe their identity, their experiences and their community is not for you to decide. It just isn't. You don't get a say.
The way other people describe their identity, their experiences and their community is not the cause of bigotry.
The way other people describe their identity, their experiences and their community is not tearing the community apart. You are.
The way other people describe their identity, their experiences and their community has nothing to do with you. Stay the fuck out of people's business.
In conclusion:
itzy comeback who’s excited
Happy Juneteenth, to my fellow African Americans! Remember, if you’re not African American (specifically a whyte person), you own us black folk reparations! Happy Juneteenth everybody!
9 Muses Gun MV for anon
this is amazing.
Alright, i don’t know British history and i don’t know vampire stuff, so here’s what my friend’s call “creative liberty.” Welcome to the extremely rough and horribly long outline of a fic that won’t see the light of day! Also sorry if it might get a little confusing, I’ve tried to keep it as clarified as possible. Feel free to send asks about it or anything!
Thanks @judging-seahorse and @djts-arts for helping me with this and listening to my frustration over it lol. Love y’all!
[this is heavenly inspired by both European folklore and The Originals - along with some other stuff]

Appearance: two fangs on the top row teeth (retractable), pointy ears (shape shift), red eyes (human blood) or red/gold-ish eyes (animal blood), and cold skin

Super strength

Only killed by decapitation, burned at the stake (fire), or a wooden stake throw the heart
Becomes weak and in pain the more they last without a drink of blood

Doesn’t attack anyone wearing a cross (like a necklace or on a crown) – a symbol of religion which protects from evil
“Vampire Creation” (turning someone into a vampire)

Both the vampire and person will feel weak for 24 hours
After 24 hours, the person becomes a vampire

a brief summary of ryuserasera for @twise ♡ ↳ happy birthday ken!
Do you ever think you'll stop drawing fanart? No offense it just seems like the kind of thing you're supposed to grow out of. I'm just curious what your plans/goals are since it isn't exactly an art form that people take seriously.
Ah, fanart. Also known as the art that girls make.
Sad, immature girls no one takes seriously. Girls who are taught that it’s shameful to be excited or passionate about anything, that it’s pathetic to gush about what attracts them, that it’s wrong to be a geek, that they should feel embarrassed about having a crush, that they’re not allowed to gaze or stare or wish or desire. Girls who need to grow out of it.
That’s the art you mean, right?
Because in my experience, when grown men make it, nobody calls it fanart. They just call it art. And everyone takes it very seriously.
