so antoine and I realized that we both love to argue but neither of us know when to stop
so we’ve developed a “safe word” which means “this argument is going too far, and it’s getting into territory in which i’m actually being hurt,” so that we’ll stop, no questions asked
ours is “periculum,” which means threat in latin because we were concerned that any english word we could choose would come up in an argument
if anyone else Likes To Argue but doesn’t know when to stop: consider an argument safe word with your friends
NO BUT DO YOU WANT TO HEAR MY THEORY FOR THIS SCENE
This doesn’t comply with the books, I realize, but it doesn’t exactly not comply either.
Why would Malfoy rip a page out of a random book? If he wanted the book, he could have just bought the book himself. He’s not poor, his family doesn’t discourage learning. He chooses to rip a particular page with a pointed glance out of a book. Why?
Think of what this and Dobby’s actions of warning have in common: Lucius Malfoy. The one who was apparently talking freely of the dangers that would face the Muggle borns this year. I think Draco knew more about what was going on, or at least figured more out, than he let on to his friends. Why? He was worried.
How does this connect to the ripped paper? How did Harry and Ron find out about the basilisk? How did Hermione?
A ripped piece of paper on basilisks.
Now we’re to assume that Hermione found this in a library book and promptly ripped it out to take with her.
But why would Hermione, with her love and care for books almost on par with the librarian, rip a page out of a book she could have just checked out? My guess is she didn’t find it in the library.
My guess is Draco somehow slipped her the piece of paper that he ripped out of a book before school started, detailing the monster he knew was in the Chamber.
He slipped Hermione the paper somehow, whether by leaving it on her desk or planting it in her bag. He tried to warn them, as best he could.
So everyone does realize Gamzee was sober for a while before Dave linked him the ICP video right?
And that he snapped after losing faith in miracles???
And that Lil Cal is Lord English?
And that Gamzee started hearing Lil Cal whispering to him???
Telling him to do all these things in the name of the “true mirthful messiahs” and to discover his “true religion”?
To kill his friends?
Not to mention the religion Gamzee followed?
Gamzee believed in a happy ending. And thats not totally accurate with what seem to be LE’s goals.
Yeah. So it appears to me that LE has manipulated not only Gamzee’s pint up rage, but his religion as well in order to use him. To turn him into a murderer, abuser, and a manipulator in the name of his now evilly twisted religion.
Gamzee started to snap when he begun questioning miracles and his faith: the things that he believed in his whole life. And he was sober before he went psycho and killed his friends. He was sober, meaning he wasn’t a bad person just because he could be. He is a bad person because he was forcefully manipulated into a thought process that wasn’t his own.
this is a very interesting video by an actual japanese person born and raised in japan and i think it brings up a few good points and it’s worth watching
If he was born and raised in Japan, he can speak for Japanese people and that’s fine, but he cannot speak for Japanese people living in America. Japanese people living in Japan might not be negatively affected by the video because their own culture isn’t inherently racist, however, in the west where the majority of society is prone to appropriating different cultures, Avril’s video does enforce harmful and negative stereotypes.
I am literally shaking, I am so angry, but good fucking LORD is this important. I’m not putting this under a readmore because this could really be critical, that way this creep doesn’t get to any other girls.
So earlier I got a message (below) from godtiermoemura that, admittedly, seemed kind of creepy on first read, but I brushed it off.
Unfortunately, I didn’t get screencaps of his message/my reply while it was in my inbox, as I didn’t think it would end up like this, but my reply was something along the lines of “I don’t think I’m comfortable talking to a stranger on skype about something you could just as easily talk about on tumblr.”
(Anyway, something nicer than that, I hope, but you can read the below and get context clues.)
After this, I was really starting to get creeper vibes, but I replied with “Idk, I’d just prefer not to Skype with someone I don’t really know, and an adult stranger, at that- and really, it can’t be that much different, haha? Really, if you want to talk about anime you can just shoot me a message any time, if it comes across weird I totally understand!”
(Courtesy of my friend Gloria who is an absolute star- I was livechatting all this on facebook and sent her all the messages + replies, so while I don’t have screencaps of my replies, she basically saw the whole thing unfold.)
He then replied with this:
I sent “Eh, to be honest, I’d just be more comfortable talking on tumblr- I usually save skype for good friends and I’d really prefer that this not turn into some kind of 20 questions to try to become familiar with each other.”
You can probably tell that at that point, I was majorly creeped out because, again, this was a 25 year old man pressuring a 16 year old girl to add him on skype to talk about “anime.” (bolded because that isn’t just conjecture: it is an actual literal fact that he was pressuring me to talk to him on Skype, and to reply to himprivately.)
He replied with:
and I sent:
“Oh nah I totally understand haha, it’s kind of a stilted method of communication, but I’d really rather not move to skype right off the bat when it comes to someone I’ve never met before (and am not likely to meet, haha). You seem nice enough, but personally, I’m really not comfortable taking things quickly when it comes to people I’ve met on tumblr, even if it is just talking on skype”
Anyway, I was really skeeved out but I thought that I could just brush this off, yet after checking the “godtiermoemura” tag (something that I reccommend anyone who gets a message like the first one does), I found some serious shit.
Next follows links and screencaps, but here’s the gist:
Even if you don’t think this guy is terrex88, it’s a fact that he sends multiple young girls the same message (“Would you be up to talking about anime on Skype cause I don’t really feel comfortable talking here. (Can you answer privately please?)”)
I don’t know personally what happens if you add him on skype, but some lovely people on tumblr have compiled a listofshitandlinksthat have happened because of him.
This guy has gone by multiple urls (godtiermoemura, terrex88, teriyakioctopus) and he always seems to start with the same message. Also, as far as I’m aware, he’s targeting young girls who are active in the Madoka Magica fandom (I’m guessing that’s how he found me? I’ve recently been posting a bunch of scans and pixiv art, and that’s really the only way I’ve been publicly active.)
If you get a message that makes you uncomfortable? DO NOT ADD HIM. Do not go along with this. It’s more important that you stay safe online than that you not offend one person who is harassing you and asking for personal information.
Really, that’s not just for Terry/godtiermoemura. If someone gives you bad vibes, chances are that’s for a good reason!! You’re not obligated to be friends with him.
He hasn’t replied after that and I sincerely hope he doesn’t, but don’t be afraid to block him if you get a message similar to this. Believe it or not, there are adult predators on this site who go after young girls, so you really need to make sure you don’t do anything you’re not comfortable with.
If you get him messaging you and harassing you for your skype, block him. Block him, report him, make it clear that this shit is not okay. This goes doubly for young women active in anime fandoms, because it’s of the utmost importance that he doesn’t prey on other girls!! Luckily I dodged a bullet and turned him down, but please, do not give him your personal information. I don’t care if you give your skype out to all and sundry, if there is someone in your inbox demanding that you only respond privately and that you give him your skype, don’t do it. This is so crucial, and I’m really sorry for rambling, but I don’t want anyone else to fall for this!!
I’ve reported him and I’m waiting for the reply, but in the meantime this is so important. Please spread this like wildfire so no one else ends up getting harassed. I really don’t want to start drama but I will if I have to.
(some more screencaps)
I can’t believe he’s still doing this shit and tumblr hasn’t kicked him off yet, honestly. I was harassed by this guy a few months ago, he is a total weirdo and got mad at me for not replying while i was OFFLINE. he also then got increasingly furious at me, by saying i wasn’t making a good attempt to be his friend, then sent me aggressive and abusive anon messages spamming my inbox. so many girls have had to deal with his dumb shit. he needs to fuck off and get a life.
aw SHIT i remember this guy
uhh i don’t have the messages anymore but yes i got that same message—long story short i told him i’d add him on skype because hey, i like friends! but i was busy with school and stuff or something, idr specifically, and between that and my anxiety i didn’t add him for a while, and i explained to him that i had hella fucking anxiety, and he got progressively more and more angry at me for not adding him. i came back from school one day to have 5+ messages from him demanding i go online and add him all sent within the span of ~30 minutes? i asked him to stop, told him it was aggravating my anxiety and i would not be adding him any faster if he continued because it just made it worse, and…clearly that didn’t happen. i asked him not to contact me and he sent me a “FUCK YOU!!!!!” and that was that
looks like i dodged a bullet there, hehhhhhh………
(context: i am a 17-year-old girl and 99% sure he found me through madoka; i peeked through is blog when he sent me the message and one of my madoka posts had been recently reblogged)
Adding this on behalf of a friend (who is on mobile and can’t post these herself).
On 10/3/2013 my (underaged!!) friend messaged me, telling me about this guy she mentioned the other day. He had, over the 2en and 3rd, send her all of these on tumblr:

This dude is a grade a jerk and I suggest people avoid/block him as needed.
