I feel physically ill after I read about antisemitic incidents on here.

When I was living in Berlin, seeing the plaques to murdered families in the sidewalk every few houses, and bulletholes left in buildings, the facade scarring and shadows ever-present while survivors and descendants pass you on the street -- you could feel it. This is living history, just 80 years ago-- and yet we have droves of soul-rotted people doing this century's round of Jew-hate. They think they're righteous.

Nothing is fun to me now. I saw some fucker on a video game this week who had named himself Jewgasser and everyone in the server was encouraging it like it was hilarious. I can't engage in hobbies without being affronted daily. Some woman had named herself HollieCaust.

I feel alone and I feel like I'm going crazy because I love Jewish people, and I feel constantly disgusted and scared at how hostile an environment for Jews people constantly cultivate. Why would anyone do that? Once you start to see it, the hatred is everywhere. Everyone is inundated with it. The most horrific thing that has ever occurred is treated as a throwaway joke. I cannot stand it. It hurts so badly. It's not about me, I'm not Jewish, and I don't mean to make anything about me. I just want to not feel alone like this for another moment.

Saltwater mermaid and freshwater mermaid fall in love. Once a year, when the saltwater mermaid's migration brings them together, they meet in the estuary and fall in love all over again

In the 1700s, blood transfusion was used to treat psychosis. Oddly, sometimes it worked.

So a question for my followers: Give your best guess as to why this could have worked without looking it up.

I will answer tomorrow.

99% of queer discourse stops right before they define the true difference between bisexual and pansexual!

This is a sign for you to write that self-indulgent fic

[renee561]

“Should I post this fic-” literally always yes. Always YES!! You wrote something that you WANT to share with the fandom because you, despite whatever writing experience you may or may not have, sat down and loved a story so much that you WROTE IT!! If you want to share it, then yes, you should always post it. You don’t need permission!!

This took me forever! These InstaPrincess illustrations were partly inspired by Vitoria Bas’s amazing Harry Potter series for SparkNotes. 

I started drawing these before Instagram changed their color scheme, but I like these colors better anyway! Aurora’s entire characterization is based HEAVILY on @dopeybeauty’s interpretation of her. If you have any questions about the princesses and their instas, let me know :)
