Hello, people of the Tumblr... I made an error and this account is linked to an email I don't have access to so I must make a new Tumblr. I can now be found @introvert-in-hell (https://introvert-in-hell.tumblr.com/)

So, redstone is toxic and radioactive and requires ppe. That's pretty standard stuff. Which hermits follow guidelines is less standard stuff. So here is a non comprehensive list because as someone who has put uranium in my mouth, I'm qualified to talk on this. Please let me know who I'm forgetting if I forget anyone!

(I'm kinda treating this like resin or something, it's safe enough that people have it in their houses but you don't want to mess with it without gear, not like actual radiation. It's only radioactive if consumed or absorbed in some way)

Tangotek: 10/10, has a gas mask he wears when handing it, keeps all his skin covered, properly washes all materials and disposes is everything correctly

Keralis: does not work with redstone but when he does he is suited up, he's not getting irradiated today, no siree 10/10

Cub: proper mask, gloves and fully covered skin, he's up there with hermits with braincells, 9/10

Pearl: 10/10, she's very safe with redstone

Xisuma: 10/10, he can't inhale it if he tried, he doesn't have lungs his face is a television and he is a robot.

Zedaph: 10/10, full goggles and gas mask and proper protection, this is how you do it people

Impulse: he doesn't fully cover his skin but otherwise he is very well protected 9/10

Gem: 9/10, doesn't fully cover her skin but pants that cover deer legs are hard to find so she gets a pass.

Stress: 8/10, she slips up sometimes and will push up her goggles to rub her eyes but she's pretty safe!

Ren: 8/10, anyone looks like an angel next to doc. 2 points are docked for sheer amount of time spent near doc. Doc is a walking hazard.

Tfc: he's careful enough around redstone but he forgets goggles or gloves or something from time to time, 8/10

Iskall: 7/10, remembers to wear a mask and eye protection but forgets gloves often

Grian: wears a mask and gloves but doesn't cover his eyes and has dragged it around with his feathers on accident 6/10

Etho: 4/10. This man wears a mask. That is it. You are lucky if he hasn't rubbed it into his bad eye yet today.

Bdubs: 3/10, doesn't wear gloves or eye protection, accidentally rubs it into his eyes sometimes, does wear a mask to prevent inhalation.

False: 3/10 she handles it without a mask or eye protection and inhales it on the regular but she wears gloves.

Hypno: 3/10, covers his face with like, a cloth mask and nothing else.

Xb: 2/10, only wears gloves. Just gloves. No other protection.

Cleo: 2/10, while she can't be irradiated because she's already dead, she's setting a bad example

Joe: 2/10 he got redstone in his hair and in his food and accidentally poisoned himself and poured water on his redstone.

Scar: 2/10 he has never worn PPE ever and isn't going to start now, but he doesn't do redstone very often because he can just do magic.

Ijevin: 1/10, redstone gets stuck in and on him. He is a walking hazard. Can't get irradiated though.

Doc: 0/10 being a creeper does not protect you from radiation. Works with redstone shirtless. Rubbed it into his eyes. Has it in his body.

Mumbo: -12736462763/10 he eats redstone

I’ve rewatched 3rd life and last life a normal amount of times i need another one...

writers be like "I'm going to work on my WIP." my brother in christ, you've already opened tumblr

If I was a fictional character, how would the fandom misinterpret me?

his first crime of many

People mimicked the traits of tuberculosis (called consumption at the time). Although makeup was heavily founded on and no respectable person would be caught wearing it, most people wore it. There were creme roughes (red creme blush-like thing) available so people could get that flushed look. they would also use belladonna eye drops to get the glassy eye look (although it was terrible for the eyes). Circling back to vampires many legends surrounding vampires most likely started as a result of tuberculosis. In the 19th century, tuberculosis broke out in Rhode Island, eastern Connecticut, southern Massachusetts, Vermont, and several other naibooring states. In Rhode Island people did not really know how to handle the illness and the only thing they say was one loved one getting sick and the life slowly draining out of them before dieing and then the rest of the family falling ill shortly after and dieing, their conclusion, vampires. as such, they would dig up the graves of the first person who dyed and messed with the corpses enough to stop them from rising from the dead. this did not work as its an air born illness and not vampires but ya know.

The (Gay) Origins of Vampires in British Literature

Thanks to the absolute joy that is Dracula Daily, I thought now might be a good time to talk about the origins of the vampire in British literature. I am a 19th century scholar who focuses on the Gothic, so while by no means an expert on vampires, I do have some understanding of how the genre came to be and boy, is it as wild and petty and as you'd hope it to be.

In order to understand how vampires came to be the aristocratic, blood sucking sex symbols they are today, let's first lay some ground work on how the tradition made it's way to Britain:

The vampire is a folkloric figure from Central and Eastern Europe, the Balkans, Turkey, and Greece. In 1701, French botanist Joseph Pitton de Tournefort was touring the island of Mykonos and recounted in his A Voyage to the Levant (1702) his experience witnessing the locals dig up the grave of a suspected Vrykolakas and cut the heart from its chest.

A century later, the Romantic poet Robert Southey cites de Tournefort's Voyage in his epic poem Thalaba the Destroyer (1801). The poem does not outright use the word "vampire" and the turning of the main character's love interest into a vampire is a minor plot point, but Southey's work draws a direct line of how the vampire tradition jumped from Greece to England.

Now here's where it gets interesting.

It involves (of course it does) everybody's favorite 19th century bad boy, Lord Byron.

Byron's poem The Giaour (rhymes with shower) is the first mention of a vampire in the English literary canon. His vampire falls more in line with the folkloric vampire as a blood drinking corpse than a debonair aristocrat. How Byron learned about vampires is not clear. He could have learned about them from Southey or de Tournefort, or encountered the legend during his own travels in Greece. Either way, Byron didn't really care for vampires. He thought they were dumb.

ENTER THE FAMOUS GHOST STORY NIGHT AT LAKE GENEVA

Scene: Mary and Percy Shelley. Mary's step sister Claire, Lord Byron, his doctor John Polidori, probably a ton of opium, and definitely a lot of sexual tension.

While most people know that Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein during this time, it's also worth noting that Byron started writing what was called A Fragment, or a Fragment of a Novel which featured an aristocratic traveler/vampire. However, Byron got bored with it and decided to drop the whole thing.

Not so much for Dr. John Polidori. Polidori worshipped Byron. He wanted to be Byron. He most likely wanted to bed Byron and Byron had the gall to laugh and call him "Polly Dolly" and refuse to give him the time of day.

So Polidori got his revenge by taking over Byron' s fragment and turning it into The Vampyre (1819). The entire novel is a thinly veiled jab at Byron and his hedonistic living. To make matters worse, the public thought Byron wrote it which infuriated Polidori who just wanted to shame Byron who laughed the entire thing off and said he would never write anything so trashy.

Once again, you can blame Lord Byron for something. The aristocratic, seductive vampire is (indirectly) because of him.

A persons fanfic tells you a lot about them, i , a fanfic writer, realize in terror

Good News! it's in the shopping district. Thank gods the entity can walk and not teleport... that's much less concerning... definitely...

Hey if u like the ocean look at this its rly cool I think

Good morning! I’m salty.

I think we, as a general community, need to start taking this little moment more seriously.

This, right here? This is asking for consent. It’s a legal necessity, yes, but it is also you, the reader, actively consenting to see adult content; and in doing so, saying that you are of an age to see it, and that you’re emotionally capable of handling it.

You find the content you find behind this warning disgusting, horrifying, upsetting, triggering? You consented. You said you could handle it, and you were able to back out at any time. You take responsibility for yourself when you click through this, and so long as the creator used warnings and tags correctly, you bear full responsibility for its impact on you.

“Children are going to lie about their age” is probably true, but that’s the problem of them and the people who are responsible for them, not the people that they lie to.

If you’re not prepared to see adult content, created by and for adults, don’t fucking click through this. And if you do, for all that’s holy, don’t blame anyone else for it.

It's like one big fucked up, capitalistic puzzle

That’s Louis Rossman, a repair technician and YouTuber, who went viral recently for railing against Apple. Apple purposely charges a lot for repairs and you either have to pay up or buy a new device. That’s because Apple withholds necessary tools and information from outside repair shops. And to think, we were just so close to change.

Me every time i write the body for my paper: the masterpiece, the eloquency, the talent, the emotion

Also me: takes 3-5 business days to write an introduction and conclusion

deeply deeply exhausted with the way everyone seems to think it’s perfectly okay to relentlessly make fun of how trans men and transmasc people look

i see it everywhere, from cis people and other trans people (including other trans men and transmascs — thanks internalized transphobia). no one has any qualms about just...throwing as many “jokes” and criticisms at us as they possibly can. if it boils down to calling transmasculinity ugly, it’s fair game to them and i’m sick of it

no one wants to hear about how bad you think our facial hair is. no one wants to hear your comments about our acne or hairlines. no one wants to hear about how upset you would be if you had our scars. no one wants to hear about how gross you think bottom growth is. nobody asked for your opinions on our bodies so please stop sharing them!

and of course, it’s all part of this larger idea that transmasculinity is something to be mocked and rejected. the comments about our voices, our names, our clothes, our hair, everything — nothing about us is free from being ridiculed in one way or another

but the criticisms of our bodies in particular have been on my mind lately as i’ve started seeing changes from t, and it’s absolutely exhausting seeing all these things that i really like (or at least feel neutral about) and knowing that the rest of the world, including members of my own community, will see them as my body being ruined

leave our bodies alone. we’re literally just sitting here existing, that’s not an invitation for you to make every joke you can think of and pick apart every inch of us

the “jokes” aren’t funny, y’all just have a fucking pathetic sense of humor

ex crumbs 🤲🛐 ; what would’ve happened if boris hadn’t been full and/or ex had gotten bit?? how would x have reacted? etc ; please i am so curious hdjshs -🧨

Boris cocked his head, his eyes lingering on the space where Ex’s throat was hidden by his armor.

“You know, I’ve been looking forward to a bit of a challenge,” he drawled. 

Ex bristled, made his threats, raised his sword. He came here to rid his territory of this fiend, and he wasn’t going to let a few ominous words dissuade him. 

The fight was messy. Neither could land a hit, and X was losing his temper, taking riskier swings, and he probably shouldn’t be so reckless, probably should have thought this through, but then again, when had he ever thought something like this through before? 

Boris’ foot slammed into Ex’s knee and his leg buckled, sending him crashing unceremoniously to the floor. Before he could recover, there were clawed fingers scrambling at his helmet, trying to pry it from his head. Ex struck out with a kick, missing, and was rewarded by having his head lifted from the ground, only to be slammed back down onto the jagged rocks. His helmet softened the blow, and the second, until on the third, spidery cracks began to creep across his visor. 

With a final grunt of exertion, Boris pried the damaged helmet from Ex’s head and wrenched his chin to the side, finally sinking his fangs into his now exposed neck. 

Ex swore, oh heck did that hurt, and really, this was what he got for being such a derp and doing this on his own. And wow, he was probably really concussed, too, the world probably shouldn’t be spinning like that, or maybe that was blood loss. 

After a moment, Boris dropped his grip, rearing back with a look of disgust and wiping at the dribble of blood on his chin. 

“What the- What are you?” he grimaced, staring at the smear of red on his hand with a good deal of confusion. 

Too tired to really respond, Ex just held up a particularly impolite hand gesture and promptly passed the heck out.

Thankyou so much for the ask! :D :D

As for how X would have reacted; I think mostly the same, only he would have been a lot harder to calm down. Boris already got what he wanted, though, so he was really only peckish. Ex should be fine. Probably.

Remember to send some local jerks in there to keep them all well fed and take them on night walks for extra spice in their life :)

it's ok to keep secrets, everybody has some skeletons in the closet. Wraiths in the attic. Ghosts in the bedroom. Mummy in the kitchen. Enchanted armor on the stairs. Slimes in the basement. Maybe a giant spider in the backyard. Beholder or two in the garage. Vampires are also in the closet

All I want is to be a little fantasy creature who can turn into mist, take any form I want, and lead travelers to their deaths,,,,, But nooo I'm stuck in this dumb human shell
