last line (or couple of lines) tag game. ty for the tag @tackytigerfic, @garagepaperback, @hephaestiions, @sorrybutblog! im left panting for more with all of the lines you shared!
i have several other writey things i should be doing rn, but instead this bill/harry/draco fic is coming out of me?
It’s almost as if he forgets how bad it is, in the weeks between phases, how weak he is to resist it. But it comes back every time, full-throated and demanding. BiIl’s only human, mostly, and Harry—with that serrated scent of sweat, blood and adrenaline, near-naked and eyes bright with the leftover thrill of the chase—is the worst kind of torture: self-inflicted and easily remedied.
tagging anyone who sees this plus @dryrsheet @noctiloucous @its-the-allure @faiell @tripably @lemonlimelea @mintawasalreadytaken @greattemptation @phoebe-delia if you're writing something atm and feel like sharing :)
#things are about to get#messy#drarry plus bill#because what does this tumultuous duo need?#angst and shame and nostalgic fantasising in the form of the eldest weasley brother

If your life is horrible and you need a new source of meaning and direction.... Do NOT find religion. Learn to identify plants.
#Me Fein#There is a terrifying worldwide shortage of people who know how to identify bramble/blackberry species.#We haven't sorted out dandelions yet#Or nettles#Getting to know your neighbours changes your life#You're no longer alone! Rubis fruitcosus is there.#Plus if you're under 40 you will suddenly be admired and lauded by old ppl who share your hobby and thought no one gave a shit anymore#Botany#Plants#When u write things about botany you can be assured they will be read by weirdos for centuries to come#Or if the text is lost itd loss will be mourned by weirdos for decades to come

i had a thought of "do people not know what AUs are anymore?" and then i remembered nobody explains fandom stuff to new people anymore so it is entirely plausible people genuinely don't know what AUs are and nobody has explained it to them, so for today's lucky 10,000:
"AU" stands for "Alternate Universe" or "Alternative Universe" (same difference) and is basically any thought scenario for a fandom that isn't canon and can't fit within the canon universe. If it takes place in the canon universe but something is notably different, that is typically what's known as a "Canon divergent AU," because it diverges from canon.
an AU can be absolutely anything. There's a couple of widespread pan-fandom au scenarios that often get thrown around, like coffee shop aus, genderbend aus, hanahaki aus (hanahaki is a whole thing in itself i'd recommend researching on your own), etc. One you might hear sometimes is "crossover AU" which is when you have characters from one fandom interacting with characters from another.
You can have as many aus as you want. They can be whatever you want and you can do whatever you want in them. It's a sandbox for you to play around in and explore how things would be different or how the characters would act in those circumstances or environments. Maybe they have different relationships with each other. Maybe they behave slightly differently. Or you can just say "Okay, [x] is true. How did they get here? How would things have to be different for this to occur?" which can also be fun.
If you are ever confused about why people ship something that seems completely out of the blue or doesn't make sense to you in the canon setting, there's a good chance they like it in an AU setting! Not everything everybody is interacting with is necessarily the canon! Not everybody wants things to exist in canon and just want to explore playing dolls in a different sandbox and that's okay. And their sandbox might look a lot different than yours, and that's also okay. You have the freedom to make your sandbox whatever you please. Do whatever you want forever. Get funky with it. AUs are fun.
Okay that's my schpeal. everybody go have fun and play nice now.
#fandom#fandom infrastructure#fandom history#was working on the ship polls blog and the comments i get there often reminded me of this#every once in a while i've gotta reacquaint myself with the xkcd expert familiarity comic principle#and the general knowledge that people dont explain the basics of fandom anymore so people have to learn it on their own#while everybody just expects them to know it and that's not fair to them!#i will also put my usual thing: folks are always welcome to ask me anything about fandom stuff#it can be specific pjo fandom stuff or general pan-fandom stuff#i have been in fandom for a long time and i am happy to explain things#legitimately if anyone ever has questions about even the most basic of fandom stuff. go for it. i love talking about it

I turn to Ares.
Thanks to Tyler Miles Lockett who allowed me to draw inspiration from his ARES piece for page 2! Look at his etsy page it's SICK
⚔️ If you want to read some queer retelling of arturian legends have a look at my webtoon
#greek mythology#ares#athena#greek gods#dont get me wrong it aint athena slander but it sure is ares praise#on some level at least#man justly accused of bad things deserves some mid praise more at 11#thank you romi for helping me with words though i duly noted you insisted on ares not being cautious rather than him not being careful#romi be like “i want him to care” and honestly good you should say it#also EPIC led to this and i just..... i want to draw some animatics man i just need infinite time now#my long lost love for greek myths just will never stop coming and they dont stop coming and they dont stop coming#i want some vulture design in here for ares but not sure about this one#kochei doodles

drawing deltarune every day until chapter 3&4 drop ✨(day 101)
childhood sweethearts
#deltarune#noelle holiday#kris dreemurr#utdr#weird route#snowgrave route#fanart#daily deltarune#blood tw#kriselle#<- if you want it to be. the idea i was trying to get across is that before noelle actually understood what romance or marriage was#as a kid she just was like ''well i would marry kris bcuz they're my best friend ^_^''#also ive always been interested in the idea that these two were sort of always ''expected'' to get together. like not FORCED to#but their parents would always comment on how well they got along and would kind of assume they might start dating eventually#like yknow. the whole thing of our families are friends so wouldnt it be cute if our kids got together and tied us together??#ive having difficulty wording it but i hope you know what im talking about lmao#edit: THIS IS NOT ABOUT COMPHET!!!!!! KRIS IS NOT A BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#5k#10k

It's always so weird to come down from the biology heavens to see what the average person believes about animals, plants, ecosystems, just the world around them. I don't even mean things that one simply doesn't know because they've never been told or things that are confusing, I'm talking about people who genuinely do not see insects as animals. What are you saying. Every time I see a crawling or fluttering little guy I know that little guy has motivations and drive to fulfill those motivations. There are gears turning in their head! They are perceiving this world and they are drawing conclusions, they are conscious. And yet it's still a whole thing if various bugs of the world feel pain or if they are simply Instinct Machines that are Not Truly Aware of Anything At All????? Help!!!!!! How can you look at a little guy and think he is just the macroscopic animal version of a virus
#yesterday i made a complainy post about a whale edit having people confused about whale sharks and orcas' dolphin and whale identity#but honestly i cant even hold these things against someone. its confusing that whale sharks are called with two different animal names!#and if you only know about the whale dolphin porpoise divide then you may not know that dolphins and porpoises and others are toothed whale#i dont think anyone is actually stupid for not having this information preinstalled in their brains#if anything it makes me happy to get to explain things because i love explaining things that i know :D#however... this#it just makes me sad :(#its so weird when this whole thing is subjected towards OTHER VERTEBRATES too like fish or reptiles or amphibians#like man.... you are a fish. your ancestors were buddy buddy (or actually probably enemy enemy) with the ancestors of these guys#fish are like a whole other class of animal to a lot of people dont even get me started#they never get the same protections as mammals or birds do even if they are just as or more endangered#mmmmm i wont rant now#biology

There seems to be a general malaise on most of Tumblr about TikTok getting banned in the United States.
I understand the problems, "brain rot", whatever but- A government banning a social media app that opened the world for many people is legitimately scary and upsetting. Say what you want but, there are MANY global and local issues that would not have gotten the same traction, recognition, and outreach without TikTok.
And then add to this that Meta/Facebook was one the largest lobbyists working to get TikTok banned... Like- I think folks should be more concerned about the implications of what this means, especially since the ban goes into effect the day before inauguration.
#Its more than “a silly dance app”#Gave Americans and others a first hand look into international issues such as Palestine and Ukraine#TikTok was a HUGE part of the BLM movement in 2020#luigi mangione#We saw things happen in real time we wouldn't have known as much about without everyday TikTok users posting and reporting on things#Further censorship like this is REALLY scary#If they can get rid of TikTok for the reasons theyre trying what happens next#tiktok#tiktok ban#2025#I know what I'm saying isn't perfect but just I'm worried and upset

advice i think we should tell children is that when adults say stuff like ‘now that i’m an adult i get really excited about stuff like coffee tables and bathrooms and rugs etc’ they don’t mean ‘and now i don’t care about blorbo and squimbus from my childhood tv shows anymore’ bc your average adult still loves all the same pop culture stuff they always did; they just have a greater appreciation for the mundane as well. growing up just means you can enjoy life twice as much now. you can get really excited about a new stuffed animal AND about a new kitchen sponge. peace and love
#peach rambles#you don’t have to get rid of blorbo and squimbus!! they would look great on top of your beautiful new nightstand you’ve been excited about#hall of fame i guess#i get. the sneaking suspicion this post has inspired at least two other posts#to the effect of ‘uhmmm i was ALWAYS excited about these things??’#yes i did have to do my own chores as a kid prommy. i just didn’t have feelings about stuff yet ok

I must sleep. Sleep is the mind-healer. Sleep is the big-life that brings total ability to fucking do anything. I will face my bed. I will permit the blankie to pass over me and snores to pass through me. And when sleep has gone past I will turn the outer eye to greet the new morning. When the sleep has gone there will be everything. Energy and will to live will remain.
#having a come to Jesus with myself about trying to work late#sleep is the only path to productivity. rest is the only thing that lets me get things done.#litany against not laying down#2024

is that piece of media actually bad, or is it just not following the blueprint you projected onto it? is that work actually not good, or are you just demanding something from it that is absolutely antithetical to its themes, genre, tone, and narrative goal? is that story actually poorly written, or do you just dislike that it is not the specific things you wanted from it that it never set out to be, never was, and never is going to become? is it actually bad, or is it actually well-executed and you just dislike the story it chose to be because it isn't catering to your specific desires and expectations?
#This was prompted by a specific thing but it is also about dozens and dozens of things#Former Prime Queue-sector of the Trust#ETA: Everyone going “XYZ is actually bad” like congratulations I wasn't saying stuff can't be bad.#I was saying that you should ask yourself these questions first bc sometimes it's just not to your sensibility.#ETA 2: now that it's been months and this is going around again while certain conversations happen in other fandoms I'm in#It's good to clarify what specifically set off this post even tho it applies to many things. But this was about someone#saying Midst is thematically and narratively incoherent bc it wasn't “everyone is miserable forever and nobody gets better” like they wante

I got commissioned to paint griddlehark imagined as a classic romance novel cover, which needless to say is one of the greatest commissions of all time and I had an absolute blast.

Per the commissioner's request, I've also uploaded this art to INPRNT (link here).
Art without typography and a mock-up for fun under the cut!


#my art#behold I return from my slumber! (too busy and stressed to think about social media for the past several months)#im annoyed at inprnt for not sizing things how i want it which is unfortunate but it is staying there nonetheless#i also looked at so many classic bodice rippers for this and it was amazing i love getting to research things for projects like this#griddlehark#the locked tomb#tlt#gideon nav#harrowhark nonagesimus

i’m gonna hold your hand with a glove on when i say this
when disabled/chronically ill people tell you they can’t do something, then that is not your cue to tell them that they can actually or that they’ll always find an excuse if they’re looking for one.
when a disabled/chronically ill person says they can’t do something, sometimes that doesn’t mean it’s outside the realm of possibility, sometimes it means if they (attempted to) do that, they will seriously hurt themselves.
when a disabled/chronically ill person says they can’t do something, sometimes it’s preventative care, and they refuse to do that thing to prevent a flare up from happening/their symptoms getting worse in the first place.
disabled/chronically ill people are not “looking for excuses”, they are giving you reasons why. something they don’t even have to do! so maybe just accept the reasons they give you.
#istg anyone whining in the comments might just get blocked#(whining about disabled/chronically ill people explaining why they can’t do certain things)#i’m tired of able bodied people being assholes about this stuff#and before you come into the comments or my asks maybe ask yourself why this bothers you That much#okay? okay.#chronic disability#chronic illness#chronically ill#chronicpain#chronic disease#disabled#chronic fatigue#chronic pain#disability#disabilties
