Scotland has created an official tartan for Scottish Muslims: blue for the Scottish flag, green for Islam, w/ five white lines representing the five pillars of Islam, six gold lines representing the six articles of faith, and a black square representing the Holy Kabah. 

If you’re not Scottish, you might not know how big of a deal this is. Quoting Attire’s Mind: “This is a signal that they are not only just a full part of Scotland now, but family. Clans, as defined by tartans, are large scale families, and the totality of them encompass the family of the Scottish people. “

the doctor who fandom needs to stop romanticizing martha jones as the downtrodden normie of the show who couldn't catch a break for reasons out of her control and understand what she actually is: miserable with daily life, horny, and with the worst taste in men imaginable. she was playing the long con just to kiss the 10th doctor (saddest wettest being in the cosmos, explicitly rejected her from the get go) 1 more time. she went to torchwood and made out with jack solely because everyone else had already done it. she knew a guy for >40 minutes on a greasy boiling sweaty spaceship falling into a sun and went for it. she even made a pun about it. her eventual partner is "man who also broke up with dr. who". she rocks for this by the way.

I'm glad Plato is more well known by his nickname than his given name of Aristocles, because imagine 2400 years of philosophy students mixing him up with his student Aristotle.

"consensual but not safe or sane" is my favourite fanfiction tag because it's like prefacing something dangerous with the warning "don't try this at home!" but instead of a risky driving manoeuvre or whatever it's a scene where a character vivisects another and applies an electric current to their nerve endings to see how their insides move (sexually)
