“Is this the end of all the endings? My broken bones are mending with all these nights we’re spending up on the roof with a schoolgirl crush, drinking beer out of plastic cups…”

I impulsively decided I wanted to try to make a little something ship-related/otherwise gay each day for Pride Month! Don’t know how long it’ll last, and I think we can see what kinda quality it’ll probably be, but hey, I just wanna see some color for our boys!!! :)
Here’s everything I could decipher from Marvin’s book.
“Sterilized(?) form requires(?) patience. Can only be refined by the High Alchemist A.I.M.C”
“Liquid Void”
“MD = Antimatter” “Please use Argentum Inanis with caution” “Don’t make [?]”
All the symbols seem to mean or be used “to [?]”
This table seems to be the periodic table of alchemy:
However I don’t understand it nor know anything about alchemy myself, does anyone here have experience with it?
There seems to be a picture of what seems to be a vial on the left by the “Liquid Void” note.
“Time(?) meddling(?) [?] to dismissal”
Then of course we have the pictures we already had:
“Inform an AIMC immediately”
“magical(?) [?] a catalyst [?] mutational [?] ;but they [?] investigate [?] it’s possibility to [?] either a Life Elixir or a Philosopher’s Stone” “Ritual Sigils: [?]”
I feel that during these times in quarentine, we feel lonelier than ever. So, me and @caaladium decided to make (and participate in) Quaren-Friends! Basically, you fill out this survey and by June 1st we will pair you with someone. Over the course of June, we will give you one activity to do every week!
Please note that we do have a cap on participants since it is only us two doing the pairing people and that you have to be at least 13 to join ;;
If you have any questions or concerns, you can DM me or @caaladium about it :D
an important reminder to other folks in the community (or any community with a character that uses SL for whatever reason)!!!
How do we recognize ableist content like that? I've never been in situations like that, so something that look pretty harmless to me could be in fact quite shitty. I don't want to share stuff like that and be unaware of it, how do I learn?
well thank you for asking!!! but the first thing I’d like to do is make it clear that while I do trust myself to recognize many common ableist errors/choices, I do not pretend to be an authority on this issue any more than anyone else who’s done some research, talked with other people, and worked to recognize things. I need help sometimes too! Also I’d like to reiterate that I am able-bodied and people with disabilities are free to correct me.
The second thing to notice is that SOMETIMES these things are context-dependent. For instance, while I usually gag to see Jameson made into like the son of somebody the same age as him, if you’re actually writing an au where Jameson and maybe another character or two are actually children to another character, that can be pretty cute!!! In that case an adult is not being infantilized and he is not made into a child because of his disability - he’s being made into a child because he’s a literal four-year-old and that’s the premise of the story (and he still can’t talk). Alternatively, maybe Jameson needs extra attention and love and protection from older brothers after a traumatic event - but at some point, that Jameson should begin to regain his independence, should still experience a wide range of emotions, and should not be condescended to about his emotions or ability to function alone. However, please be careful with this… don’t use context to make excuses if you’re actually pulling ableist shit.
I think that list I gave in the post I made is a good (but not comprehensive!) starting point for some of the things to look for that are offensive to people with disabilities (some of these are specific to mutism). Let’s take another deeper look at these points:

LAST WEEK WE CAN USE THIS SOMEONE HIT THE PANIC BUTTON
as you may know by now, i live in Europe, many of my online friends, do not. what brought us together was, the internet.
a mere love for say Yuri on Ice, memes, youtubers.
in the recent months, the internet has been under attack, free speech and fair use are being silenced.
think about this: you’re just watching a music video from your favorite idol, whether it be Taylor Swift or Queen, you really enjoy that content
as you go to the next video it says “error, this video is not available in your country” you think ‘okay, whatever’ and move on to the next one, same message, you skip to the next one again, same message again.
then you realize, all content by Taylor Swift has been blocked by Youtube. all content by Cardi B has been blocked by Youtube.
our future, is in jeopardy if this gets passed. without Europe, net neutrality would’ve already been non existent.
the internet needs to be saved.
not just for us, but for our future. the future of the world. the internet brought us together as a world and we’ve shown it many times before how strong it can be.
we have to show that strength again.
we have lost a crucial battle back in September, but we have not lost the war. we have to keep fighting and to push our belief. to push the internet further. to grow as a community, as a society.
what Europe wants to do is protect copyright, which is needed yes, but not in this extreme, it’s like when you were in elementary school and this one kid ruined a field trip for everyone.
we cannot let them take away our internet. fight for your right to free speech, fight for your right to have fair use.
