"What radicalized you?"

Nothing.

I've just always held that fascism is bad and that all people deserve basic respect and human rights, along with food, healthcare, housing, and civil liberties.

And somewhere along the line, that became a radical opinion.

the tragedy of tumblr is you will inevitably meet people who you should be having a sleepover with. you should be rolling around on their floor and rummaging through their fridge and watching shitty movies with. you should be shopping with should be going out to a cafe with should be wandering through the aquarium with. people who you should be experiencing quotidian joys with... and you cannot! because they live one million miles away

Stanfrog Pines - frog scholar

I would like to introduce you to two amphibians that are very near and dear to my heart. They started as a simple joke sketched out on a post it at work

And have grown to have their very own AU and backstory.May I introduce... Stanforg and Stanphibian.

Stanforg, or "Forg", is one of the many Fords that exist within the multiverse. (One of the Fords that the other ones don't talk about.) Hailing from the frog dimension (the dimension in which everyone is a frog) Stanforg and his twin brother Stanphibian were both thrown into the portal and have been traversing the multiverse together, having decided "fuck that noise" about the frog dimension and also that its probably best to leave the Bill-killing to the humans. He's a frog, for goodness sake, be reasonable!

Dont ask me how Stanphibian has his fez if they both got portalled. I barely speak enough frog to understand their drink orders, let alone their complicated backstory.

Also, why did Bill try to get a frog to build the portal? Why not? Get as many idiots as possible building portals - one of them is bound to succeed. It's a numbers game! So what if one of those numbers is a frog. A stable dimension is a stable dimension, you know?

The frog Pines brothers are also the only current known associates of another AU Ford, who also happens to be the only human capable of fully understanding thier weird frog language... but that guy isn't mine so I don't get to talk about him ;)

Based on the fic Fratenal Familial Fixation in which Ford may or may not be contemplating villainy, Stan definitely knocked out a guy's teeth and put him in hospital, and misogyny is no-one's friend.

Story contains pining, sex scenes, a dash of angst, and now - thanks to an anonymous muse - I'm apparenlty doing illustrations....?

the other day i learned that taking a long time to fall asleep is called “sleep latency” which is just the funniest thing to me tbh

Unreliable narrators are one hell of an idea. You can just write whatever, and if a reader points out "hey the way this scene happened should not be physically possible if it's done the way this character described it", you can just be like "yeah I don't trust that fucker either."

Hey, take it from someone creeping towards 40:

Ignore the fun police.

If you like it, order your steak well done. Get your bagel toasted with jam and butter. Put ice in your scotch and ketchup on your hotdog. Get red wine with fish and white with steak. Who cares?

If you want to, listen to pop music. Watch blockbuster popcorn flicks. Read dime store novels. Enjoy them.

Dye your hair or cut it off. Paint your fingernails blue. Wear whatever the fuck you want on your own time (ie, when not at a job or school or whatever where you can get penalized for breaking rules) as long as you aren’t like welding or shoveling snow.

Anyone who tries to tell you you’re wrong? Say “okay” and go back to what you were doing. You’re not hurting them by enjoying yourself or having things the way you like them.

There are no caveats or addendums to this. No “but what about x?” Nah. You’re allowed the things you like. You don’t have to justify your taste or apologize for it if it’s not hurting anyone.

And likewise, let other people live their lives. We’re all dead in the long run, so tend your own garden before you become fertilizer in it.

The trouble with chasing after recs for fucked up media is that a lot of allegedly fucked up media is enamoured with the idea of being fucked up, but it's not actually fucked up about anything. The form is there, but not the substance. However, there's no way to communicate this to anyone who doesn't already Get It without sounding like a maniac.

Wallace’s Flying Frogs (Rhacophorus nigropalmatus), family Rhacophoridae, found in SE Asia

The species can use their extensive toe webbing to glide or parachute from trees, in their dense forest habitat.

I assure you: somebody, somewhere, is on the exact same wavelength as you are.

Having too much fun writing the next chapter of Fraternal Familial Fixation, so here's a screen-shotted snippet of fem!Ford weaponising grammar with a couple of police officers.

It is simply not fulfilling to enjoy media in the height of its popularity. You need to show up so late to the party that everybody else is gone and the hosts are asleep so you can rummage through their trash for chip dip and stale hors d’oeurves to eat alone in the dark like a dirty little raccoon secret

I love late night thoughts cause why did my brain just go “imagine if Stan’s kidney landed somewhere in the black market somewhere and FORD is the one to acquire said kidney”

Hear me out, it’s not even for anything creepy or disturbing but rather to test for regenerative plants and potions etc. that could save people’s life’s! And ofc he doubts he could just be able to walk into a hospital and ask (very politely) for a kidney!

And once he gets said kidney he run some tests and comes to the realization of “wait a fucking minute… the dna is saying is mine which is not right. UNLESS-“

Leading to ford freaking the fuck out cause holy shit Stanley’s organ is sitting in ice in his fucking house and wherethefuckistherestofhisbrother-
