Cabbage, a good polite boy who doesn't get a many pictures because my phone is an asshole and doesn't like to photograph anything black...

Brussel Sprout, obnoxious demon bastard child

Shoutout to autistic and adhd people whose special interests/hyperfixations aren't media-related. "autism is about writing fanfics about your blorbo scrunklies XDD" actually autism is about collecting miniature world war 1 airplane models

I don't have a ficlet today so instead I'm gonna leave you with the image of Guydelot admiring a sleeping Sanson by the gently-glowing light of their warding scales while they're in Garlemald

I would rather light my home with candles for the rest of time than have Google control my lights.

Friendly reminder

I post memes because I, like everyone else here, wanna talk about my characters. If you don’t wanna send me anything, then reblog from the source, not me. Ty.

Honestly never considered this before, but that’s a reasonable policy.

If I reblog a meme/prompt from someone, I try to send them a prompt.

If I can’t send them a prompt for whatever reason but still want to do the meme, I try to go back to the source blog if available, or as far back as I can go, or I don’t reblog it now and draft it instead until I have time and spoons to find a question/prompt for the person I’m getting it from.

Sometimes, when I can, I’ll also try to look at who reblogged from me and send them Asks, too.

If you want interactions on your blogs? Give interactions to others! People notice and remember and check your stuff out!

And folks also notice and start to remember who always takes and never gives back.

This is a social blogging site. Try to be social.

chainsaw killer but their chainsaw has all these cute little bloodstained charms attached to it like a flip phone and they carry it around like a handbag

Ok what is the worst fandom you've ever been in? I'll go first. Jojo.

PRETTY GOOD, IT DOESN’T SEEM

I do genuinely believe that the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (and arguably the Zelda franchise as a whole, though i myself have played literally none of these games) is closer to fitting the description of ‘Tolkien-esque Fantasy’ than most other movies/shows/games/books etc that claim that label

Like, compare this post by tumblr user wufflesvetinari, which makes an important point about Tolkien’s worldbuilding, and also lives in my head rent free:

and then these quotes from Jacob Geller’s “Every Zelda is the Darkest Zelda”

and his conclusions about the messages in Zelda games are thematically very similar to the through-lines about friendship and love in LOTR, and what a lot of authors miss about what makes a fantasy story personal and memorable:

“A world without joy and humor isn’t a compelling world to fight for” is exactly why there are so many pieces of fantasy media out there that just feel like carbon copies of each other (i’ve seen many posts that explain this better than I can though I can’t find any specific ones at the moment, just know that I didn’t invent this thesis). You’ve got the cool swords, you’ve got the wizards and the spells and the battles, but first and foremost you need the LOVE.

pov an aro person makes a post

as much as i appreciate the increased usage of they/them pronouns as a non binary person that uses those pronouns, y'all need to also understand that using they/them on someone who does not use they/them is still misgendering

Using they/them for someone whose gender/pronouns you’re unsure of: good; doesn’t make assumptions; more concise and inclusive than the dreaded “he or she.” not misgendering

Using they/them for someone who has already told you their gender/pronouns (and doesn’t use they/them): not good; ignores their implicit/explicit wishes; often used as an ‘out’ by closet transphobes to avoid referring to a binary trans person with their preferred pronouns while still appearing ‘woke.’ this is misgendering

Not a mufasa origin story

This is blatant revisionism of the Lion King canon. Mufasa was born the eldest son of Ahadi, himself the son of Mohatu, both kings of Pride Rock, and Mufasa directly quotes Ahadi in explaining that the past kings live on in the stars. Zazu states that Simba and Nala's betrothal is part of a tradition going back "generations," further establishing that this kingdom is not new, which it would have had to be if Mufasa founded it. Scar's entire claim to the throne rests on him being the younger brother of the king, a claim which would only hold legitimacy if there had been a previous king to father him.

This brazen defilement of the Lion King lore is, without a doubt, the worst thing Disney has ever done as a company.

WAIT IF MUFASA WAS BORN AN ORPHAN HOW THE FUCK IS SCAR HIS BROTHER

Born an orphan. Neither one of his parents shows up for this birth
