Notknowncryptid - Cukr

details of her design also subject to change but here she is… cniki

was gonna post her w puffy but ive run into issues w puffys design😥

cause its pride month and im nonbinary have some trans dsmp headcanons:

ranboo is afab and masc presenting enby w he/they pronouns (i maybe self projecting here but shh), tommy is a trans man with he/him, tubbo too but he uses he/they, niki is a demigirl and uses she/they, captain puffy is genderfluid and uses any pronouns and dreamxd is gender fluid and uses any pronouns as well!

is he … you know … open to interpretation?

regarding posting dream smp content:

i've been made aware by trusted friends and sources in private correspondence on discord that the extent of the issues with the dream smp are actually more than i can reasonably excuse my enjoyment of it for (as documented in this callout post), so i would like to publicly acknowledge and apologize for that.

until very recently i was under the impression that the majority of past instances of controversy surrounding dream and some of his friends were things that had been addressed by them and that they were making an effort to learn and change for the better. i was assured of this by people i believed were trustworthy. and i am ashamed to admit that until it was brought to my attention directly in private by multiple friends, some of whom understandably no longer wish to associate with me due to my ignorance until proven guilty, i was unaware of any major criticisms, including anything i received for my involvement in watching and sharing fan content for the dream smp because i hadn't seen any well sourced evidence for why i shouldn't. for this i am extremely sorry, i was ignorant and have caused a lot of hurt and i fully accept the blame for that.

i am not a fan or "stan" of dream himself, have never supported him personally, and i don't have a twitter so was unaware of most of the controversies he's been involved in documented on there. i am not someone who willingly and knowingly supports antiblackness, antisemitism or anything else, and i do not in any way think it's acceptable to harass people or worse over something like minecraft youtube.

i was apparently sent a lot of asks, including some containing evidence (although i have a strict policy of not clicking links i'm sent because i can't trust them not to link to triggering or otherwise malicious content from experience, so i didn't get to see any of the most damning evidence until it was presented to me by sources i trust. this is a policy i'll be reassessing). i will defend myself for supposedly "cherrypicking" asks i receive on the grounds that i get so many asks every day that i have notifications turned off and do not check my askbox unless i am expecting an ask, so i only see asks if i've chosen to scroll through my activity feed and they show up there. i tend to skim my feed and ignore anything containing a threat or overly negative tone because usually it is just someone with too much free time trying to harass me for no good reason. this is also something i will be reassessing as it allowed me to stay ignorant for far too long. anyway, since i've been receiving a lot of questions both on here and privately over the past 24 hours asking me to address my "support for dream", i've actually had a reason to check my askbox and properly read the criticisms people have been sending me.

i don't and have never supported any harassment that dream or his friend's fans have participated in towards other people and do not believe that he is an "unproblematic" person who has nothing he needs to apologize for or be held accountable for. however i understand now that my sharing content related to his smp without any acknowledgement of the fact that its creator and some of his close friends have participated in and said things that i am as horrified by as anyone with common sense would be does create the impression that there is no need to hold these people accountable and that their behavior has and deserves no consequences. i am extremely sorry for this. it is entirely my fault for not listening until i was held accountable myself and forced to critically examine my interest by people i actually know.

to conclude, i will once again apologize that it took me this long and a lot of effort on other people's parts to be made aware of how significant the problems with dream and his community are. i ask for no forgiveness, only understanding that it was not done with malicious intent (although i understand that it had negative consequences nonetheless). i am not posting this with the intention of gaining sympathy. i'm just holding myself accountable for my mistakes. from here on out i will only be sharing fan content related to streamers i watch who are not involved in any controversy (or at least none that hasn't been satisfactorily addressed), and i may cease posting content about minecraft streamers altogether in future if i feel personally that even that is providing too much of a platform to dream and those associated closely with him.

Apparently people who don't have executive dysfunction think that actually working on something is the hardest part of doing something. And that's why they get mad that you call the rest of the project "easy" after you've finally worked through doing the plan and know what to do when you're working.

So when you're through with the epiphany of how to make it physically possible to make the thing you're making, and you're sharing the plan with excitement, because the hard part is over, and now you only have to get your hands moving and do it, they get mad at you like

"it's not that easy! It's a lot of hard work! >:C"

they mean it, because

to them, working is the hardest part.

They don't have to fight their brains to get started. They don't have to fight their way through making the choices, making the plan, making yourself make the thing. People who don't suffer from executive dysfunction think that the hardest part is actually doing the thing.

It's so weird talking to people who's view of "here's the way life is for everyone" is shattered as soon as they talk to someone with disabilities (physical, mental illness, any). Like you'll say you'll have a problem and instead of helping you they'll argue with you about how you're not actually facing that problem. Like,

Me: Hey, I'm really struggling to find a job and a part of it is my resume. I was depressed & psychotic during highschool so I didn't do anything to gain skills or achievements to put on my resume. I also don't have anyone to put as a reference. What can I do?

Them: You can add your skills, hobbies, clubs you're in, and different volunteer work you've done! You can also get your teacher as a reference.

Me: I already know what to put on a resume, my issue is that I don't have things that I can use. Also, I'm in my mid 20s so I don't know if I can put my highschool teacher as a reference.

Them: Well if you're a part of a church or an activity group, you could add that. Also, think of any projects you've worked on in the past.

Me: I already know you can put these things on a resume. I'm not looking for suggests of things I've already done, I'm looking for what I can do now if I haven't done anything.

Them: There's no way you didn't do anything during highschool?? What about some odd jobs you definitely did for extra money, like babysitting or mowing the lawn?

Me: I spent all of highschool either in modified classes or in bed doing nothing - not even hobbies, what about that do you not understand?

And then you talk to someone who's also disabled and they're like "Here's a bunch of jobs you can do from home that don't pay much but look good on a resume, here's some free online courses that also look good on a resume, here's how you can be making small amounts of money in the meantime, here's some things you can put besides a professional reference, and here are your rights if your future employer tries to take advantage of your disability - which you probably shouldn't tell them about unless you need accommodations."

And suddenly my will to continue trying returns!

(tw flashing!!!) give it up for traumatized teenagers! yaaaayyy

the dumbest smart person i know

Cursed school presentations? Thank you!

I hate presentations 😂but who doesn’t?

I submit to you that the most iconic feature of any animal is either unlikely or impossible to fossilize.

If all we had of wolves were their bones we would never guess that they howl.

If all we had of elephants were fossils with no living related species, we might infer some kind of proboscis but we'd never come up with those ears.

If all we had of chickens were bones, we wouldn't know about their combs and wattles, or that roosters crow.

We wouldn't know that lions have manes, or that zebras have stripes, or that peacocks have trains, that howler monkeys yell, that cats purr, that deer shed the velvet from their antlers, that caterpillars become butterflies, that spiders make webs, that chickadees say their name, that Canada geese are assholes, that orangutans are ginger, that dolphins echolocate, or that squid even existed.

My point here is that we don't know anything about dinosaurs. If we saw one we would not recognize it. As my evidence I submit the above, along with the fact that it took us two centuries to realize they'd been all around us the whole time.
