what’s your favourite George fic that you didn’t write?

Love this question!!! Means I can give love to other writers woohoo! And tbh I could talk for ages about George writing - I feel like he doesn't get enough written about him!!

The first first first one that came to mind is One Last Night by @thef1diary because if freaking hit me in the heart so strongly and I think about it far too much. If you want a balance of angst and heart wrenching spice, read this NOW.

Speaking of angst and spice balance, A Helping Hand and it's following parts from @futurewdclandonorris was one of my first George universes I read! Smut is chefs kiss and ties in just enough with the angst that it kinda hurts?? But in that nice reading-something-good hurt??

Literally anything by @mrs-saturday as she is one of the only other mainly George x Reader writers on here with me!! But especially Only Bought This Dress So You Can Take It Off had me feeling some kinda way fr-

Corruption Kink by @safetycar-restart put me on something I didn't know I needed tbh. Just a little something that change my world and got my mind going brrrrtttt

And for some dark George, Twisted Game of Hide and Seek by @f1driverszona was my guilty pleasure. Shamelessly had me giggling kicking my feet behind my iPad while reading, catering to a part of me I sometimes suppress LOL

Straying away from xReader now, if you vibe with that!

I discovered Led by a Racing Heart by @landoisokay the other day and this one is artistry. Limited dialogue leaving room for such depth of characterization and everything. I've dabbled in a few more of this author's works but fr I need to properly sit down and read and interact because the writing style is mwah

Eagle Eyed by @prettydangrotten was so freaking addicting and riveting tbh. Every description was incredible and the characterization was nothing short of professional, parts of this fic had me holding my breath fr, and the author's way of writing George was spot onnnn imo.

@starlightiing's Stardew Valley Galex AU was the first AU of hers she told me about so it holds a special place in my heart. The crumbs we have gotten for this one so far are delectable and although Jess is the queen of Pierresteban, this AU's interpretation of Galex is something else!!!!

Nassau County of Long Island, New York passed a mask ban bill today. Please make a habit of calling your city, county, state, and federal representatives expressing your opposition to mask bans because fascist legislative proposals like this is absolutely going to be domino effecting throughout the US. AND WEAR A MASK IN PUBLIC. WEAR A MASK TO NOT ONLY PROTECT US, BUT SUPPORT US.

Editing to add (8/14/2024): Please read the recent update.

There's this phenomenon on social media, especially TikTok, where someone will post a cute video of their pet doing something totally harmless, and someone will invariably chime in the comments with some piece of unsolicited advice which may or may not even be relevant, and it bugs me a lot! Offering someone unsolicited pet-care advice (or child-rearing advice, for that matter) is actually really rude, especially if you're not a vet and you're doing it in that way that seems calculated to show off that you know more than them rather than being genuinely helpful. Like, the latest version I saw of this was somebody's cat chasing a laser pointer quite happily, and someone in the comments saying "make sure you play with them using other toys, too! It's better enrichment!" Like, boss, you saw one video of somebody playing with their cat and couldn't help but extrapolate from that that they might be doing something wrong in general, and therefore that you just had to correct them? Go jump in a lake.

This is one of those things that I think we would instinctually recognize as kind of deranged if you did it face-to-face--if you were playing with your dog in the park and someone came up to you and was like, "actually, you shouldn't be doing that, you should be doing this instead," you would be well within your rights to tell them to fuck off, no matter how much they tried to defensively frame their intrusion as "just trying to help." But the faux familiarity of social media and the anonymity of random commenters reduces the social friction there, and the urge of the know-it-all to show that they indeed do know it all is unleashed.

But here's your modern etiquette tip for the day: knock that shit off! It's really fucking rude!

Rook sitting Bellara and Davrin down all somber and they're expecting some sort of serious conversation only for Rook to go "I need you to teach me how to curse in elven. The common tongue isn't enough. I need to cuss Solas' ass out in his native language."

Have you had Nazi propaganda blazed onto your dashboard? Me too.

Its no secret that Tumblr doesn't give a damn about its user base. It's been made abundantly clear to me that not only do they not care. Tumblr is allowing posts with direct links to nazi propaganda and chatroom sites to be blazed!

The only reason I found this post? Because Tumblr put it in front of my face on my dashboard.

In the notes of this post there were dozens of reblogs with things like "is this an ARG?" "Oh whats this, save for later". One comment that said "tempting".

This is a neo nazi trying to recruit you.

Report this immediately. Do not click links. Email support@tumblr.com telling them that you don't want neo nazis paying them to show us this garbage.

If you want to know how I figured out what this was in more detail, I'll put it under a read more so that everyone can be a little safer and a little smarter out there.

First: I went to the persons blog.

This one in particular is clever enough to have an ask about palestinian donations as their first post. The second is the one screenshot above.

I kept scrolling. Most are youtube links posted with 0 notes or interaction. This is another link to the same site here.

If you scroll far enough, you'll see they've reblogged an original post.

If you directly copy and paste this text into google, you'll find exactly one result. A PDF in Bulgarian hosted on a website named aobg.org.

Sounds legit, right?

Its the official website for the Bulgarian Society of Anthroposophy. A 'new age spiritual movement based on German idealism'. A cult.

As soon as I made the connection, I knew that clicking the original link would lead me to something similar. I felt confident enough to click it safely (DO NOT TRY AT HOME), and was launched into the shittiest little pro Nazi website with a live chatroom on the side.

There are always signs, always queues. Do not be stupid out there. These are NOT ARGs. If you aren't sure, block and move on.

John notices when he's putting on a pair of jeans. They don't button as easily as they used to, in fact, he has to suck in for them to fit as snugly as they used to without feeling uncomfortable.

And then it's a t-shirt. He doesn't think before throwing it on but he does take notice of how it clings around the middle in a way it never used to.

So, he stands in front of the mirror and truly looks himself over.

He's softer around the middle, with more weight and less muscle.

It doesn't shock him, Nikolai has been making an effort to cook more homemade meals in the past few months and the man cooks like Gordon Ramsey just with better tits. John eats all that's on his plate; he's good like that.

It doesn't evoke a feeling of terror in him like he'd expect. For the first time in years, he's in a truly healthy relationship, and he's gaining weight. There's something sappy and heartwarming about the thought that he'd never voice.

Maybe he could change his routine at the gym, but the current plan of action is to find the tightest t-shirt he can find and prance around the flat wearing it in front of Nik. It's getting ripped off of him one way or another.
