Fun Fact
Kazakhstan’s Minister of Communications and Informatics has blocked the Tumblr site because it contained 60 sites of terrorism, extremism, and pornography in 2015.
Got the chance to bring this up again on Twitter, and though I've posted the summarised version of this from the article on here before, I don't think I've ever posted the actual clip before.
crappy google translate below:
"Our family, it's like the model for this whole thing, the Moomin company. But then... loneliness is a certain form of freedom. I might describe it better by talking about one of my characters who is a vagabond, called Snufkin. He is extremely admired by all the others in the valley because he is completely free. He comes and goes as he wants to, appears and departs, very much himself. Yes, he has been my idol too, but now I have begun to suspect that deep down he is quite self-centred and spoiled. He is a creature of luxury. It's very easy to go out into the wilderness when you're applauded when you get home, right? It's not hard to be alone like that."
Hubby and the kiddos have all week off while I have to work. I hear my hubby clear his throat as I'm in the middle of work emails and turn to see this...
oh we are so back, baby -- and i've got just the thing in mind for you
eighteenth fanfic roulette of the day(s):
would that i'd loved (long ago) by sprst1tion
“I wouldn’t be hasty,” comments sixth-year Tom Riddle, eyes still glued on the boy in thought. "Hadrian Evans is going to Slytherin.”
"The strange Mudblood?" Abraxas Malfoy cocks his head. “How can you be so sure?”
Riddle just smiles in response.
Silence remains after Malfoy speaks, all the boys sitting in anticipation. And, in a minute they'll know, Tom Riddle is right again.

This is about GOS2 but not quite -just wanted to tell you how refreshing (and calming) it is to see someone dislike something, or disagree with something, or someone (Neil, in this case) while being completely polite and respectful to people who do like it (the show, the ship, this season specifically, whatever) and not doing personal attacks or being insulting or downright hostile or aggressive. Just... Liking what you like, not liking what you don't like, and being in your own "bubble" so to speak. I adore the first season, and some moments in this one (not the season in general), and I've had to see and start avoiding absolutely wild stuff since 2019, from haughty superiority from book first fans calling people who liked the show absolute idiots, people directly attacking fanwork creators or even Tennant, Sheen and Gaiman themselves, to even worse stuff I'd rather not think about. As you can probably already imagine, that specific kind of dumpster fire has only gotten worse since the release of S2.
My take on fandom has always been to enjoy what you enjoy and ignore the rest unless it's something serious with real-world implications or consequences. It's always stressed me out how people can get, to the point that for several years I stopped engaging with fandom entirely, and I just wanted to say this, I guess, because it's been a breath of fresh air. I wish more people engaged with fictional material and fandom the way you do. Cheers, hope you have nice day and that this wasn't too weird of a message to get
This is really beautifully put, thank you for the nice message! Yeah all-in-all, these are just a show/a book/content made for people's entertainment, and there's absolutely no reason to get to the point of attacking the cast and crew or fans personally.
I'm gonna be so fr i think even as an afrolatino Percy Jackson truther that even Halle getting casted as Ariel couldn't make him be obsessed with The Little Mermaid.He dosen't hate it because that's weird and pick meish but he would just.Not care about it at all,he'd be like 'Nice,i hope she gets all the money and fame she wants!Anyway,time to go back to watching Phineas and Ferb then be depressed about Brandy's Cinderella never getting sequels and watching The Proud Family to feel better'
Why do I feel like that was level 1 of this massive fight 😭 this does not bode well. I will now have an overwhelming sense of dread for the next two weeks. Love that for me 🙃
bruh remember when it was a hot topic fandom argument for no reason about whether the fire nation has female military people other than like the dangerous ladies? but it’s just a literal canon indisputable fact that they do? like whether you like it or not however you feel about it there absolutely are females in the fire nation military that is specifically shown & canon lol I have no idea why this was ever a debate
