Art-heavy personal blog full of bones, gender things, Good Omens, DND, Ninja Turtles, Legend of Zelda, McElroys, and Star Trek. Also cats, the human body, politics, stormy seascapes, and green things, plus my own writing and fanart.  Lots of older fandoms as well (mainly Homestuck and Watchmen). Everything is tagged, so feel free to go digging.

That said if anyone was into the Batman fandom circa 1998-2002 and remembers a drama/mystery/angst fic where Tim Drake as Robin found out that his dad was infertile and he was conceived via IVF using donor sperm, began to suspect that he was Bruce's biological son (at the same time wondering if he himself could be the father of Stephanie's baby), and later discovered that his bio-father was actually the JOKER, Bruce had known the entire goddamn time, AND Bruce had been the one to arrange for the sperm donor samples to be swapped in the first place in a fucked up "nature vs nurture" experiment...
Please please please PLEASE pass along any links or other details you recall because I am desperate to read it again.
Writer's pen name may have been Jack something? They had a very direct, Hemmingway-esque writing style that was all simple sentences, that blew baby me away. Didn't use quotation marks for dialogue, and included all these small but grimly practical details that really sold the Gothic realism of the story, like Stephanie wearing a dental bridge because she's had some teeth knocked out in a fight.

The great tragedy of trying to track down a 25+ year old fanfic that was dear to you except all the search engine tricks you used to bend the Internet to your whim in the chaotic cowboy days of GeoCities webrings don't fucking work anymore because even though the html bones of some of the great pre-ff.net libraries still linger in the mists, AI and search engine optimization have made it impossible to pluck anything useful or specific from the firehose of muck Google has become.

I'm obsessed with characters we only hear about second or third hand, especially when those accounts are conflicting. No, you don't get to see them, but here's a warped mirror of what other people thought they were. Enjoy your contemplation of how being known is an act of translation and communicates only aspects of the self.

i unironically think that the resurgence of mustache culture has brought about a male slut era that is in many ways still in its infancy but is growing day by day. hemlines are getting shorter, chest hair is growing back, tops are cropped. gone are the dark, dark days when the sluttiest thing a man could do was roll up the sleeves of his button up office shirt. we are returning to the light of mustache rides and teeny tiny swim shorts. amen.

my favorite thing about navigating fanfiction is finding a really good one and being all “oh boy this was good, I hope they have more!” and literally every other story they’ve ever written was for like Miami Vice

”I have this artistic idea but not the skills to achieve it to the standard I want.”
congrats! Now you have a motif! A recurring theme! A focus for your art! Something to haunt you!
Seventeen still lives of dandelions? Three hundred poems about grief? A sketchbook dedicated to your grandmother’s house? Two books trying to unravel the complexities of familial relationships?
Don’t let the fear of it not being perfect on the first try stop you from being Weird About It!

Teen LGBT Squad
Another Hometar Runner fancomic for pride month, this time starring the Teen Girl Squad.
This was mostly an excuse to make that “ow mein kampf” joke

This house, that was featured on HGTV's "Extreme Homes," was inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright's work and features Tahitian finishes. The 1992 build in Enid, OK has 3bds, 4ba, 3,008sqft, and is $459,900.

As soon as you walk thru the carved front door, there's a large zebra mural lining the wall.
Tumblr media
The mural remains visible from the living room. Look at the high ceiling with metal beams.
Tumblr media
Love the trees on the back wall.
Tumblr media
And, check out the bar in the living room. Sit at the bar and watch the game, just like a real tavern, but classier. However, there's no dining room so, I guess you either sit at the bar...
Tumblr media
Or at this cocktail table in the corner. If this isn't a party house, I don't know what is. A larger table would fit along the tree wall, no problem.
Tumblr media
Behind the bar is the way to the kitchen.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
What an interesting kitchen. The sink is round. I really don't see anywhere else in here for a kitchen table.
Tumblr media
There's so much room in here for a table and even more furniture.
Tumblr media
A light filled hallway.
Tumblr media
They put some chairs and a coffee table in here, but it looks like maybe a family room, b/c it's open.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The primary bedroom has this entertainment unit and a built-in bed headboard.
Tumblr media
Walk-in closet.
Tumblr media
And, a very large ensuite.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Another large suite with a shower room. Interesting tile.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
There's a very large terrace that wraps around the house.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Look at how huge it is.
Tumblr media
Plus the walled area in front of the house is very large.
Tumblr media
0.47 acre lot.
