People who say bi erasure doesn’t happen need to realize Freddie Mercury is known as the most famous homosexual man when he identified himself as bisexual. If that’s not bi erasure I don’t even know.

Also PoC erasure, most people don’t know he was 100% Indian

Specifically he was Parsi. Also raised Zeroastrian.

*zoroastrian 

^^^ centuries of religious art featuring white-skinned blue-eyed Jesus have made that pretty clear

His real name was Farrokh Bulsara. He was born in Zanzibar.

Okay but why is “farrokh bulsara, from Zanzibar ” more inspiring and better sounding than “Freddie mercury from England ”?

Can I add this tidbit I found?

ID: “During a Queen concert in the 70s, a heckler shouted “you fucking poof” [gay slur] to Freddie Mercury during the middle of their set. Freddie responded by ordering the crew to turn the spotlight on hte man, asking him to “Say it again, darling”. The heckler cowered in shame.

Clark: Bruce Bruce what is this 9 yr old Dick: :D Clark: Bruce Bruce, haggard, injecting 5 hour energy straight into his arm: baby bird Clark: you can't let a child fight crime Bruce, near tears: you want to try and stop him? please for the love of God Clark try please Dick: I'm gonna do murder! Dick: *cartwheels* Clark: oh no Bruce: that's what I said

Honestly, the one thing I want right now is a fanfic of Post-Season 3 Clementine going back in time to just before Season 1 starts. Like we have the most badass apocalypse survivor back in the body of an innocent 7/8 year old. 

Clem could save Lee. She could save Duck and Katja. She could save Kenny and Nick and Luke. She could save so many people.

Not to mention all the struggle of having lived something before. Having to deal with the perceptions everyone has of her as a little kid. Having to deal with everything she knows changing because she keeps changing everything.

Like, I see some timetravel fics where Lee goes back in time, but The Walking Dead Game is literally Clementine’s story. She’s survived nearly five years of Hell. Lee didn’t even get through the first year.

Reblogging this because Season 4 has given me life and new ideas.

Imagine this:

-Clem and AJ go back in time after the car crash at the start of EP 1

-They wake up a few days before everything goes to shit, so AJ actually sees what everyone talks about (cops, firefighters, disco broccoli, etc.)

-In this timeline, young!Clem ended up getting bit by her babysitter and became a walker because idk Equivalent Exchange™ or something

-Clem and AJ take refuge in her old home until Lee shows up but they spend that time basically looting her neighborhood and stealing themselves a hot ride

-Lee has suddenly become a father to a 17 year old badass and a grandfather to said badass’s son

-He is also their new conscience becuz living 8 years after the collapse of society has left their morals a tad skewed and what does it say about them that the voice of reason is the convicted murderer?

-When meeting the Pharmacy group, it’s not Lilly and Kenny butting heads, but Lilly and Clementine

-There’s probably a scene where Clem puts Larry on his ass before taking control of the situation and getting the Pharmacy open because that would be hilarious

-Lee, Clem, AJ, Carley and Doug become a group and get the hell out of dodge

-They head to South Carolina for Reasons™ that eventually lead to them crossing paths with the Cabin Survivors

-(maybe pre-Everything-Goes-To-Shit? Like I doubt Carver would be able to ascend to Dictator Numero Uno with Clem, Carley and Lee all there, right?)

-Also Sam is a Good Boy™ and AJ becomes ranger class

-And Clem lives happily ever after because she deserves it. ❤

My father and I play this… game… in which we both pretend to be attempting to assassinate each other. When we serve the other food or drink, we’ll adopt the most suspicious mannerisms and wording possible, as though the food were secretly poisoned and we are eagerly waiting for them to eat it and die.

The other player pretends that they know their food is poisoned, but must feign ignorance and try to come up with subtle excuses not to eat/drink it without seeming rude or directly confronting the other about the attempted kinslaying.

Wholesome family bonding.

Last night my father brought me “a nice tall glass of ice water” and stood there watching me closely as I sipped it. I pretended to swallow, at which point he threw his head back and laughed maniacally.

While he was laughing, I spit the entire mouthful of water that I’d been holding in my mouth onto his shirt, patted my chest, and said, “Oh, dear, Father; I’m afraid this water was just too cold. I need to let it warm up. Why don’t I make us some… tea.”

Another thing we do is imply that we have set lethal traps for each other.

“Goodnight Father,” I’ll tell him (because Father with a capital F is the most sinister and threatening thing you can call your dad). “I hope you sleep well tonight. Very well. It would be a shame if something… disturbed you.“ In response, he’ll make an offhand remark about needing to Google the upper age limit for sudden infant death syndrome, or he’ll bring up my “inheritance” and the possibility that he might have worthy bastard children somewhere. 

My mother does not like our game.

It sounds amazing. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

somewhere in my heart i know this exchange has taken place while batman is busting a weapon dealers warehouse

rogues, buying discounted explosives: uhhh

batman, who was expecting jason: Red Robin.

red robin, clearly also there as a customer, entirely unabashed: this is where i get my groceries B

red robin: ooh 45% off the mini land mines if purchased with any 2 weapons containing a hidden retractable blade!

one of the rogues already tied up in the back: oh get that one now, the deals marked purple are limited time, i’ve made that mistake before

red robin: thanks greg i’ll remember that

batman, internally: i’m worried about the wrong child

Yeah I’m sorry but I seriously don’t buy the whole “Batman can sneak up on Kryptonians and other superpowered aliens/people cause he’s ~Batman~“ BS

Personally what I think would be much more in character and frankly way funnier is if just about every superhero can see/detect Batman, they all just choose to humor him cause of his fragile ego lmao 

 Low effort comic cause I tired aha

even with those four numbers there are countless possible combinations good luck with figuring out which one is the right one you punk

*straightens calculator*

It’s pretty likely that it’s a four digit number, and as there are four digits chosen there, that means that there cannot be any repetition. This mean that there are:

n!/(n-4)! possible orders. As ‘n’ is 4 (number of digits available). 4!/0! which becomes 4x3x2x1/1 which simplifies to 24. That means that there are 24 possible combinations of codes. This would take you about two or three minutes to input all possible codes.

Unless an alarm goes off if you don’t get it right in 3 tries

*straightens calculator again*

Kick the fucking door in

well ‘technically’ the code is most likley 1970. statistically, a majority of people, when told to choose a 4 digit code will choose their birth year. and this key pad is obviously a few years old to put it nicely, thats most likley it. 

some sherlock holmes shit just went down over here

No, no, no. Don’t base your deductions of psychology. Let’s talk chemistry. When you first press a button, there’s more of the natural oils on your skin, and therefore it wears down the numbers on the keys faster. Obviously 0 is the first one, then. Try 0791 first.

Sherlock out.

woah.

it got better

and this is why the sherlock fandom could either rule the world or end it….

Close, but not quite, I think. People will almost always choose a number they can remember. What’s memorable about 0791? Try 0719 - a birthday, 19th of July. That is more likely.

Those deductions are great and all, but unnecessary.

The light is green.

The door is already open.

And that’s why we have a John Watson.

This is “top 10 favorite posts” level.

Omg, it’s actually on my dash! This post is like a fossil!

Idk if I’ve rebloged this before, but I’ll reblog this legend again

Smithsonian? I’ve found the quintessential Tumblr and Sherlock fandom post. Yes. I would consider it definitive.

Ahh it’s back.

Legend of a post. 10/10 recommend reblogging.

this post is on my dash I feel HONORED

THE POST OF LEGENDS HAS RESURFACED ON MY DASH

I’VE ONLY EVER SEEN THIS IN SCREENSHOTS OMG

On your dash? I dig for gold like this,,, by looking at my mutual pages.

I’ve only seen this on Pinterest!

*gasp* THE SACRED TEXTS!

THIS IS A LEGENDARY POST I HAVE BEEN GRACED BY IT’S APPEARANCE!!!

yesssss

Why did Tumblr stop doing stuff like this, it’s genuinely fascinating, and cute that we include our favorite media in things we do

Well. Since you asked. I was on tumblr as this post was being built in 2013. The height of superwholock. Which has, since then, been declared peak cringe. So people picked new fandoms to openly love in earnest. Which were also eventually declared cringe. Eventually the youth decided to cut out the middleman, and declared loving anything in earnest to be fully cringe. So it has been a really long time since the day to day users of tumblr have let any fandom create anything nearing the cultural phenomenon that was superwholock. And it is exactly those cultural phenomena that are needed to create posts like this.

So. What happened? Cringe culture happened.

Try and imagine what would happen if this post wasn’t the “sacred texts” only ever seen in screen shots and in pinterest. Try and imagine any current pop culture detective media fandom creating this post today. They’d be slaughtered for being cringe by the time (in this case) Sherlock was mentined.

But because this post is 10 years old and completely broke containment, it’s celebrated when it graces our dashes.

I blazed a small fandom event announcement.  Because I was genuinely excited to be part of a Big Bang for a wonderful movie.  One of the first responses I got was “Why would you blaze this?” Because of genuine excitement. Because I wanted to celebrate the friends I’d met in the fandom To spread joy to people who might also like the content but hadn’t seen it yet.   The fact that that was genuinely not realized made me sad.  I love thing, I celebrate thing.   I’m too old for cringe.  Cringe is dead.  Love what you love.  Enjoy the small things in life, it’s too short to do otherwise.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

Ominis: *orders food fluently in parseltongue to impress MC*
McDonald's drive-thru employee: ...What??
MC: What do I get?
Sebastian: A night of fashion, mischief, mayhem, and possible death.
MC: Ooh, check, check, and check, not sure about that last one.
Sebastian: It won’t be you.
MC I’ll get my coat.
Rookwood: You're too late! You'll never stop me now!
MC: That's where you're wrong, evil-doer! We will stop you with the powers of:
Natsai: Friendship!
Poppy: Harmony!
Sebastian: Incredible violence!
Amit: And love!
Professor Black: *to students* I’m your headmaster. What I say goes!
Professor Weasley: ...through me for final approval.
Professor Black: Through professor Weasley for final approval
Poppy: *sitting outside a cafe, enjoying coffee and a newspaper*  Highwind: *sitting at her feet people-watching*
*A thud against the other side of the window they’re sitting beside makes them both look up*
MC, inside the cafe with both palms flat against the window and her face too close to the glass: CAN I PET YOUR HYPPOGRYFF?
Sebastian: Look we all have a role in this team:
Sebastian: I come up with dumb ideas,
Sebastian: Ominis tells me why they won’t work,
Sebastian: MC convinces me to do them anyway.

Knowing that Ominis says his aunt Noctua was his favorite person in the whole world, I can imagine him wanting to name a daughter that someday.

I can also see Anne wanting to name a son Solomon someday. She seemed a lot closer to Solomon then Sebastian, and Solomon seemed to genuinely care for her as opposed to her twin. Her letter to Sebastian also says she misses their uncle, so maybe she’d want to name a son after him.

And MC would definitely name any child they had Eleazar after Professor Fig. Professor Fig was at their side their entire journey and the one person fighting for them constantly. Whatever ending you choose, it’s clear they miss Fig terribly. I could see them naming a son that to honor him.

Anonymous asked:

How/where do you think Professor Fig and Miriam met?

I'd imagine they met at school! But I enjoy the idea of them not liking each other at first. He calls her petulant, and she calls him frumpy. They have a sort of rivalry going on until they discover that they can be top of the class if they combine his bookishness and her inquisitiveness. Once he confesses that he rather likes how she's not petulant but passionate, and she admits he's not frumpy but simply a romantic, affection and ultimately love start to blossom and they've been inseparablel ever since.
