The high-end grooming spot continues to innovate and challenge the norms of the modern man’s grooming routine, now featuring treatments and products from the luxurious British skincare brand,…

Most annoying NMJ or JC take is when someone that dislikes them is like "oh you're a fan of him? *scoff* Well obviously you've only seen cql, where he was super watered down. In the novel he's a dislikable asshole and that's the objectively superior canon I'm working from instead of your woobified fanfic." Meanwhile your main canon is novel canon and you genuinely find novel Jiang Cheng and Nie Mingjue complex sympathetic characters.

gee i wonder if the issue could be at all related to the fact that the current treatment plan for his chronic pain consists solely of FUCKING IBUPROFEN

Super Mario Bros won my last fanart poll! So here is big brother Mario taking little brother Luigi out for some Raccoon Tail Flying Lessons.

Sometimes I think the Conservatives can't sink any lower and then I open the news

[mistystarshine]

I just saw that post about character misconception in fandom and Adam and I just realized• isn't it weird that Lute doesn't receive the same treatment? Like most of the times, people will agree that she's a bitch and a genocidal monster, but with Adam it's the "he had every right to act like this for x and z reasons" from the (chronically online) fangirls or the religious conservative fanboys? Why is that?

It's the sexism <3

Kronos swallows his children and is awful, terrible and deserving of Tartaros for it, but Zeus does the same to a pregnant woman and nobody gives a shit. Ok then.

things of slay - blog updates

As I've mentioned before, I'm slowly doing some cleanup on this blog and a couple of others. For just a bit, my focus will be on re-working my verses to cast or re-cast necessary muses.

First things first:

CASTING -- I prefer even my free verses to have some solid, non-changing cast members because it helps keep the story tight and moving forward if several of us are on the same page about the plot and our place in it. A bit like a group verse, aside from the fact that any mutual can slide into the universe without asking or applying to do so. The only difference is when there's a specific muse that's cast in a role, I won't interact with a duplicate of that muse in that verse -- an example would be that @gloriousxdarkness is the only Elektra in the Crossed Worlds open spin-off verse, 'Back in Black' but OCs and non-cast muses are welcome to hmu in 'Back in Black' any time.

I'm throwing out a line because I'd like to get some canons in the mix in my open verses. Here's what I'm specifically looking for, verse by verse:

Back in Black -- Clint Barton, James Rhodes, Peter Parker, Laura Barton, Nick Fury, Matt Murdock, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Blade, Any X-Men, Any DCEU, Superheroes and supervillains welcome! It's set in the current year, but diverges from canon at the end of Thor: Ragnarok. In this verse Thanos never happened. This is a very canon verse, other than that, please be aware.

Stranger Things -- I'm restarting my ST open verse, basically from scratch so I'm looking for anyone who's up for it!

Immortal Beloved -- I'd love to have a full set of Mikaelsons, of which I'm only missing Bex and Klaus. Looking for witches, werewolves, other Slayers, vampires, you name it! Set vaguely smack-dab in the middle of The Originals second season.

As always, OCs are welcome in all verses, I'm highly interested in interacting with female muses and I welcome conflict IC as well as friendship, found family, romance, etc. The easiest way to chat about this is to hmu on discord at faithlehane but make sure to tell me who you are/what your tumblr url is. <3

The whole "if a person is mad at you it's their responsibility to tell you" thing just made me realize how fucked my situation is. Like just. woah

[dkniade]

The current Archons having twins/(at least) two forms/someone else with same appearance, with a worshipped title and mortal alias/name, is such an interesting trope on identity and I love it

Like, hell yeah you have different names for different occasions and they mean different things, though you’re still you

[monmuses]

Why does your exclusive send more ooc than actually write.

idk man, its kind of gay you keep trying to ride their ass about "writing" more. and fuckin pathetic. its no wonder you don't get the kind of special attention i do ✨

[ozimaniac]

I came up with a silly idea! And I need you 🫵

I was thinking about what kind of stuff Zen and Genji would text each other, and I wrote a little headcanon BUT I think it would also be fun to create fake texts.

So I'm asking you guys to send me some memes via dm's, that you think they would both send to each other. And depending on how many images I get, I will turn some of them into fake text convos! (I already created a layout and I tried to make it look neat!)

So yeah, It would be cool if you guys would send me some goofy stuff!! And I'll tag you in the final post.

Heads Up, 7 Up

Thank you for the tag, @theprissythumbelina.

Passing the tag (with no obligation) to @oh-no-another-idea, @on-noon, @stesierra, @writernopal, @talesofsorrowandofruin, @sleepyowlwrites, @wordwizards, and an open tag for anyone else who wants to join in.

More from the next Empty Names chapter:

“Right, so, the idea is that if you put all those things together, you could enchant something to start playing an accelerated ritual incantation on command.  And then if you also had the glyph circle to go along with that enchantment inscribed on the object, you’d basically have a portable high-speed ritual ready to go on command.”

Glassheart goes silent for a moment and tilts his head in consideration.  “Theoretically one could do that, but why would you?”

“Because it’s more portable than an entire lab and server room and while it’s less flexible than a phone full of pre-saved audio and video files you wouldn’t have to worry about durability and battery issues.”

“But why not enchant the object to produce the desired end effect directly?  The extra steps are additional points of failure.  Potentially catastrophic ones.”

A small smile creeps onto Lacuna’s face. That is the question she’d been building up to.  She lifts her feet and tilts her body just enough to cause the office chair to rotate with what she tells herself is dramatic slowness until she’s facing in Glassheart’s direction.

“Flexibility!  A normal enchantment produces the exact same effect each time - at most with some conditional modifiers set at time of creation - but since a ritual’s output can be modified to some degree at runtime based on will and intent…”

“You seek to emulate a mage’s spellcasting,” Glassheart finishes, eyes wide.

gonna be honest I see anyone talking about this "my gender is more complicated than yours" shit as someone who genuinely cannot comprehend that other people that don't share certain traits with them can still in fact have rich interior lives. as an agender trans woman who uses she/her I've never had anyone say it to me who wasn't (usually unknowingly) transmisogynistic

see but im not talking about "rich interior lives" and the assumption that i am is exactly what im talking about. i am talking about the actual physical way that reality treats and percieves me in comparison to the way it treats and percieves you. saying my gender is "more complex" means to me that i am physically incapable of existing in a strictly binary world and that there is no thing i can pass as bc "binary man" and "binary woman" are both incorrect for me. and the Cisiety in question does not allow androgyny to exist - it is exclusively the timeframe people have to decide whether they think you are a cisman or a ciswoman, or a failure and a freak. i dont subscribe to that "binary privilege" shit, thats not how privilege works. but there are differences in the ways both you and i can navigate this strictly binary Cisiety!!! and those differences deserve to be named, imo

like. again. i dont have to comfort you about your own internal sense of gender before youll listen to me about my experiences in the real world as genderqueer. as a different sort of transsexual than you.

(and bc i Know what binary ppl love to say: i know not everyone is 'capable of passing'. what i am talking about specifically is the difference between being unable to pass as a cis woman or a cis man vs being unable to pass bc what i am does not exist AT ALL in a binary society, and both of those things are incorrect ans unattainable.)

(anyways if that language is too imperfect for you thats like fine but. its just confusing to me, i dont get why its hard to understand what we are talking about here. our experiences w our nonbinary genders are completely different! why do i have to discuss them like theyre the same?)
