I see so much awesome art and photography here but sometimes I won't repost it. Why? Because it's missing Alt Text. It takes so little effort to add it and it helps so many people access images that they wouldn't be able to otherwise. Please please please use Alt Text on images!

Being super gay and #osc coded at the bar today. Got some looks but you can't stop me being me!

A selfie of me in the bathroom at a bar. I'm wearing a green jacket and a shirt showcasing the Battle for Dream Island / Inanimate Insanity tour. I also have bracelets on my right wrist.

Thank you for calling this out, definitely something that flew under a lot of people's radars (especially when Scott said he was stepping away from the franchise after the news broke, which lasted all of about 10 seconds).

Mikey Blighe @mikeyblighe.bsky.social · 3h

Oh. My. Word.

Mikey Blighe @mikeyblighe.bsky.social · 3h

Casually ignoring that so many English people hate the monarchy ha!

Mikey Blighe @mikeyblighe.bsky.social · 3h

Ha! Perfect.

Mikey Blighe @mikeyblighe.bsky.social · 3h

I feel like Paper would suit these well. Or maybe Four with those subtle blue tones. Whoever you choose it'll look awesome I'm sure!

Mikey Blighe @mikeyblighe.bsky.social · 4h

He's my favourite actually. Definitely nothing to do with the lack of upper wear. Not at all.

Mikey Blighe @mikeyblighe.bsky.social · 4h

As a Mr. England I apologise to everyone who has had to suffer that look (please also know that I've never done it myself 😹).

Mikey Blighe @mikeyblighe.bsky.social · 4h

(I'll also never understand how anyone thinks calling someone "woke" is an insult, it's the BEST thing to be!)

Mikey Blighe @mikeyblighe.bsky.social · 4h

They say, "Go woke, go broke" but damn if I'm not having the best time being the wokest fucker I can be.

I feel like this is something a lot of people don't know so I'm happy to share. And listen, I had fun with FNAF back in the day (it's how I found Markiplier). But as soon as this news dropped a few years ago I was out. And you should be too. There's tonnes of other mascot horror out there!

Jazzy Oliver - Voice Actress @ladyjazzington.bsky.social · 22h

BUT HEY!

THAT'S JUST A Segway to remind you that the FNAF creator/this movie's screenwriter, Scott Cawthon, donates the money he makes from FNAF stuff to far right politicians, many of whom are currently trying to make things worse for everyone, specifically trans people. Don't support this film.

Don't forget your daily affirmations!

- you are loved and deserve to be loved
- completing even small tasks is worthy of celebration
- perfection is nice but focus on just doing as well as you can
- trans rights are human rights
- do what you need but also make sure to find time to do what you love

Listen, if you give me a fox I don't need anything else.

A picture of a Fennekin, a fox Pokémon from the series of the same name. It is a mostly yellow creature with tufts of red fur coming out of its ears, red eyes, white fur around the nose and mouth and a red tip at the end of its tail. It is sitting on a red floor.

I just used this picture in a response to one of my other posts but my word I adore these two.

#ii #inanimateinsanity #osc #objectshows #payjay

A picture of the characters OJ (a glass of orange juice) and Paper (a sheet of lined note paper) from the animated series Inanimate Insanity. They are holding both of their hands together and smiling at each other and Paper is blushing.

Mikey Blighe @mikeyblighe.bsky.social · 19h

And for reference, PayJay refers to a canonical gay couple in the show Inanimate Insanity, one of my favourite couples ever! They make me feel all warm and fuzzy 🧡🤍

World Mental Health Day has already passed here, which highlights the myriad of weird ways my brain works I missed it despite seeing people talk about it all day. Hi, I'm Mikey and I suffer from depression and potentially other undiagnosed stuff. Look after yourself everyone 💖
