Hey guys let me tell you about advance fee scams

I hope y'all are familiar with these in this day and age, especially my artists out there, because they're incredibly common.

About half an hour ago I posted a drawing and tagged it #artists on tumblr, and very quickly received this comment.

My scam radar went off immediately, due to the generic blog name and lack of any emotion in the comment, but I decided it might be an entertaining venture so I dmed them. They asked for a drawing "of these", and sent me a random selfie. I got the details and told them it would be $15, and they promptly offered me $300. At this point I know it's a scam, but I play along for funsies and give them my paypal. Shortly, they send me this image for "confirmation" (I blocked out my email)

And they began to insist that I checked my email. I looked in my spam folder and found the following email.

This is fake. This is not a thing. And the "you're to refund the $200.00 back" is the scam. They send vaguely official-looking emails at you to "prove" that they sent you the money, then have you send them $200 (or however much the scam is for). Then, surprise surprise, you're out $200.

I continued to play along for a bit, and in the second email "Paypal" told me that I had to refund the $200 before they could "credit the $300 to my account", along with these lovely threats.

And yeah, it's silly. But it's not silly if you don't know and get scammed. So. Spread, please! And thank you very much to @mlaurel for the opportunity to get these screenshots.

As we should. I was so mad this bitch got #5 in the popularity poll. Hell, I’d rather MAHITO be #5 than him.

Ngl, seeing Maki haters/Toji stans bitch how Maki is a bad character or that she's only a "Toji copy" is the funniest shit ever. Y'know why? Because they literally got slandered by Gege as a character.

That's right. This motherfucker. He quite literally is what those Maki haters are- or what he symbolizes. And it's funny how they always bitch about Maki or that she's just a "copy" when...look at Naoya. Look how he ended up. Look at how stupid he was portrayed. Look how she DOMINATED him. Look how dumb he looked narrative wise.

Also...when do parallels mean a bad character or a "copy?" What cause Maki's a girl? That's stupid. If she were a copy she wouldn't have been created by Gege before Toji in JJK 0. Or have her dynamic with Yuta, or those moments of her struggling to accept affection, or have all that development, or her dynamic with Mai, or her symbolism.

Conclusion: Naoya and toxic Toji stans are mainly wannabe sigma toxic male 14 year old boys who can't even get a snickers from their mommy lmao. They're also the fans who were LITERALLY slandered by Gege in the form of a character.

Oh yes, I definitely get frustrated when Gojo gets reduced to a gay twink attached to Geto or, the other side which either overglaze him or completely disregard his character.

Yes, he was very upset over Geto leaving but he has every right to be upset. Geto was practically one of the few people he's close to or probably the person he's close to. I'd be too. Though, I do make fun of it, I don't like exaggerating it unnecessarily. If any one of us were in his place, we'd be in a much, much worse state. I'd say if Gojo was as clingy as the fics depicted him to be, he would've not made it after Geto died. But he did. Just because he moved forward, it doesn't mean he still isn't hurt by it. He wanted his best friend back, but he understood Geto and him were now on opposing sides and there is no third option. Geto had already killed a hundred people, including his own parents, there is no turning back.

I don't think Gojo is actually very clingy, whenever he is "clingy", he's joking or being completely unserious. This man stole his student's skirt and wore it (grown ass man). I feel like people forget how silly he is, the most popular depictions of his character are glazing or sexualisation, it somehow overshadows his usual unseriousness although it was very prominent from the moment we meet him. He's only being "clingy" because he wants a reaction out of someone. This man teases a lot of people, Utahime, Nanami and Ichiji are major victims, we see it a lot, yet people — ignore it?

Humour is just clearly his coping mechanism. It's not like he'd even consider himself worthy of talking about his struggles in the first place. He's the wall between cursed spirits and jujutsu society, he expects no one (but someone as powerful, if not more than him) to understand the stress he experiences. Take the scene where he acts all cheerful RIGHT AFTER he killed Geto. Akutami stated he had a mental breakdown afterwards — it's a facade and a coping mechanism. To him and a lot of his peers, the jujutsu world didn't need Satoru Gojo, they needed curse spirits exorcist Satoru Gojo. His goal was to change that but until he finishes nurturing the next generation of sorcerers, he has to remain the Strongest. Wait, actually, I don't think he wanted to descend lower, he wanted his students to reach that level.

Anyway it's 12:35am in the goddamned morning and I need sleep... I shall end my rant here.

Heyo!

I was a lil curious whether you have SatoSugu ship fics written. I haven't read much of it and also because I dropped so many because of 18+ stuff and I don't like the interpretations of the characters.

So far, I am loving your take on both Gojo and Geto — have both your analyses saved to look at again when I'm writing. They're both amazing, I'm telling you.!

I know I could just yk, scroll around but I feel like hearing from the awesome person themselves is better.

Anyway, hope you're having a good day/night! :D

Hey! :) First of all, thank you so much for your praise on my JJK Character analysis!! ☹️🫶 I spent a decent amount of time thinking about these characters, trying to understand how they think, why they do/did what they did! It’s a huge compliment to hear and know that you’re using them as reference!! It’s so rewarding to know that the posts I released into the void have some sort of impact/that they’re appreciated. I’m still learning more about them as time goes on, too!

Suguru Analysis here, and Satoru Analysis here, for anyone who wants to read it!

Secondly, no, I haven’t written any satosugu stuff. Maybe one day? It’s an interesting thing to think about, how the two might interact if they ever met one on one after their fallout (prior to geto invading Jujutsu Tech ofc). I actually am going to make a third analysis post on the mischaracterization of Gojo in the JJK fandom, especially with Satosugu. People tend to completely erase Gojo’s strengths and personality in certain fan takes. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate ships, but I think that people reduce Gojo to a sniveling mess of a man hung up on his ex best friend/lover, when that’s really not the case— Gojo’s strength is his ability to move forward, regardless of who he loses. Gege said this himself, that Gojo knows anyone can die at any point. Gojo was a man who was raised to be a weapon, shouldered a huge responsibility, and in order to do so, he couldn’t be the sensitive and clingy type of guy that people write in their fics (which sucks to hear if you’re emotionally invested in him, and people often don’t wanna exit their delusions). This doesn’t mean that Gojo isn’t touchy-feely, he def can be, but emotionally? He isn’t clingy. He could’ve been a WONDERFUL yandere character based on his childhood/teenage isolation, but Gojo didn’t have an incredibly strong sensitivity for others. That’s why he didn’t turn into a villain. He was, ultimately and unfortunately, a successful product, shaped by the people who treated him as less than human. Or that’s my current take, at least.

NO. YOU CANNOT DO THIS TO ME.

I would really like this trend of donation scammers sending anons to stop. I block them yet they still send anons. It's very annoying.
