Tumblr only allows fifty tags per post so trust me when I say this was an AGONISING list to try to make but I think I have a diverse enough roundup so that at least one of these blogs will be your cup of tea (no I couldn’t find any blogs beginning with u, x or z unfortunately so it’s not the complete alphabet)

[valtoon]

This is a bit of a different positivity post because I’m writing this on Tuesday but posting it tomorrow because I felt too self conscious about posting another one three days in a row but I really over binded during the holiday and my back is absolutely killing me so I deffo need to make this (ow ow ow ow ow)

Have a (much more elongated than the last one) list of blogs I love if you aren’t aware of anyone on this list already (some of which idk if I remembered to follow but it’s fine). I’d be self conscious about how many people I’ve tagged but embarrassment is an emotion reserved for those not experiencing extreme back pain. (Well known and lesser known blogs because BOTH deserve love)

@hargrove-mayfields I think I’ve said everything I have to say about EJ already but for everyone who doesn’t know, EJ is a fic writer, she does gorgeous edits and she’s such a sweet and safe person to talk to.

@foxyworldposts Foxy is such a cool person, I really love talking to him and hearing his thoughts about Billy.

@hg-deranged-edition I love transmasc harringrove so much, especially the way he draws it, it’s just so emotional to look at his drawings

@jaylikesrainbowtigers I really love Emma’s blog and being able to talk to her about Billy, Steve and disability, also they’re just a lovely person.

@mrsblackruby anyone who uses political and sociological theory to defend Billy has my upmost respect.

@shieldofiron Saf is so talented I’m a little in awe of her. She’s an absolute gem of a person and makes this fandom such a positive place.

@thatgirlwithasquid You HAVE to check out Squids Billy drawings they’re unnervingly good.

@carito-dorito she truly cares about Billy and has such articulate thoughts on the show.

@peachyaliien another wonderful person and artist who’s a pleasure to have in the fandom.

@dragonflylady77 Guin is just Guin. She’s a far more positive presence in the fandom than me and I’m so glad to be friends with her.

@ratbastardbilly everyone go look at her muppets harringrove drawing. It will benefit your mental health.

@kittyphoenix12-xx a breath of fresh air from fandom wank with sharp and witty posts.

@adelacreations Add can write and draw scarily well, is an amazing person and friend and makes some of the most unique and descriptive aus I’ve ever seen. *ferally babbles about Lord Billy and poison Ivy Steve*

@gracegrove incredibly educated and helpful posts about victimhood along with beautiful writing. Pushes the antis who like to armchair diagnose Billy back with actual psychological knowledge.

@thediktatortot Lou is such a good artist, especially the hellcheer that he drew, I’m obsessed with it.

@thissortofsorcery I love Gabi’s writing so much, she’s a complete sweetheart.

@toast-ranger-to-a-stranger Another person who I’ve scoured the AO3 of and has just been so nice I can’t not include them in any of my positivity posts now.

@heck-in-a-handbasket stop what you’re doing and read all of heck’s fics consecutively right now. You won’t regret it.

@neonponders I’ve read their fic too much, it’s no longer good for my health. An incredibly positive presence in this community.

@harringrovsonsworld great character ideas, incredibly smart and funny with such compelling fic as well

@harringroveera memes. Memes. Memes. They’re genuinely such a cool person where you can really tell the level of detail and thought that went into every post.

@harringrovest I love the way she writes Steve just taking care of Billy but also is genuinely a wonderful person as well.

@oopsiedaisiesbaby not only a great writer but a truly lovely person as well

@writer-in-theory I have been in need of Steddie friendly harringrove for a while now but also the way they write Billy makes so much sense for his character, I love it.

@bigdumbbambieyes Bambi thank you for being so sweet as I tag you in these, also thank you for writing harringrove that makes me weep.

@hephaestn the little story beats, the way harringrove interact with each other, it’s SO Jane Austen

@fizzigigsimmer just the creativity of the fics they write I’m in awe

@femmebilly Juls my beloved. Their writing and attitude towards fandom is just SO refreshing.

@brightside-of-the-upsidedown Harle is just a fucking gem and a true gift to this fandom

@bogwitchlesbian absolutely love all their takes on Billy and Steve, especially Billy and song parallels.

@ihni sweet, lighthearted harringrove comics is what this fandom needs right now. 100% a pillar of this community.

@metalscoops the way they draw femme harringrove has given me such brainrot you have no idea

@suspiciouslackofclowns they’re so nice and I fucking love their writing (I saw tags from last time and omfg please write more autism centric things I love them)

@stranger-rants the work they do for this community is so needed, even if I and a lot of others couldn’t do that. The posts on Billy and childhood trauma are particularly helpful.

@half-oz-eddie Ivy’s blog has been bugging for me a bit over the past week but he does awesome memes, awesome fics and I’m so glad to be friends with him.

@discodeviant I’ve said it like twenty times already but just the way they write. Fucking perfection.

@80svhstapes Jaiden is just so awesome and I love literally all his takes on Billy.

@werewolfnick autistic. Billy. Hargrove. Posts. What more could you want?

@memes-saved-me I fucking love harringrove memes and Alice is definitely one of the pillars of this fandom.

@captainrexshusband the shitposts are just absolutely hilarious, I enjoy them a lot.

@cuepickle as a non artist I struggle to describe how art makes me feel, but their harringrove gives me A LOT of feelings.

@lovebillyhargrove there’s just something incredibly poetic about the way they write harringrove

@imsodishy the blend of memes and serious education around victims is something I really admire, having that balance.

@grey-sides I fucking love their harringrove fics, they’re so well written I’ve just never reblogged them bc I am awkward.

@yikesharringrove I love trans Steve a whole lot, especially when written by a trans person and I have read pretty much the entirety of their AO3.

@steviespanties I am unapologetic about my love for bottom Steve, goodnight, also the way they write Steve is so fantastic.

@valtoon I am such a sucker for their art holy shit the style just does something to me, especially the boxers au

I’m too low spoons to come up with more in depth descriptions and a couple I’ve used before but I really just needed to do this to try to make other people feel better bc I feel like shit and I want to help other people not feel like shit because knowing this fandom there’s definitely at least one blog in this list dealing with something ridiculous anti wise ( I think there’s a fucking poll thing going on again idk)

If you’ve been dealing with any anti Billy bullshit, remember to take a step back if you need to, have a drink, go on a walk, write a fic that would scare a rich person, all that good shit. You are loved and supported in this community, never forget that. I hope this post helps at least one person today.

LONG TIME NO TUMBLR;; Anyone still alive here? May start posting some backlog if so

Here's a Billy I drew today <3

[valtoon]

Oh my god how have I not seen a SINGLE person mention this is it just such common knowledge and I'm STUPID

Nina. Nina's Actress. Nina Sosanya. Played Sister Mary Loquacious in season 1

I'm now choosing to believe Mary is Nina's identical twin sister and THAT'S why she was so unphased by all of Aziraphale and Crowley's nonsense because her sister was a SATANIC NUN that BY DEFINITION cannot keep her mouth shut so she has literally heard IT ALL BEFORE

[valtoon]

"crowley's suffered more than jesus" "aziraphale has unhealed trauma" MICHAEL SHEEN HAD TO KISS DAVID TENNANT AND PRETEND HE DIDN'T ENJOY IT IMMENSELY WHOS THE REAL VICTIM HERE

[valtoon]

has anybody talked about how BOTH Nina and Maggie's actresses play different characters in season one (sister Mary Loquacious and some othe nun I don'tknow the name of) and we never get an explanation for it like we do for Beelzebub's new face? like,,, that's weird, right? that has to be on purpose

[valtoon]

look at them baby angels 👼

[close ups under the cut]

[valtoon]

Aziraphale & Crowley + parallels

[valtoon]

i love how the kiss was awful. i love how it wasn’t a show of love but a desperate, viscerally angry gesture to try to get aziraphale to see exactly what he was losing and what crowley has, from his point of view, already lost. i love how the kiss was awful.

[valtoon]

You idiot, we could have been...us. I forgive you.

[valtoon]

Here we are, GO day, 30 minutes before Good Omens 2 airs finally! Grabs your snacks, get comfy and Enjoy the show! I'll see you all on the other side 😉

I was the last of a fun countdown, you can check out the amazing @lilpy 's offering from yesterday!

Happy Watching!
