Reading Iron Widow and "You van't shoot me, I'm rich!" is probably the funniest line I've read in a long time

For the ask game number 15!
Hii!
15. Are there words, phrases, mannerisms or scenes you tend to use a lot?
Probably, yeah xD I remember thinking some while back that I need to use "though" less because I noticed it was in every other sentence… For phrases I think I use "in a way" a lot but I don't really know how to substitute it in a way that would sound good. Mannerisms… I can't come up with anything on the spot though I'm sure somebody else, if asked, would have a reply at the ready. And for scenes, I'm fairly sure the Black Brothers fight/insult each other at least once in every fic I've written. And Grimmauld Place 12 rennovations. This has been pointed out to me by Trex_Patronus a while ago but I just might spend more times browsing wallpapers for Grimmauld than actually writing.
Sound on if you guys wanna know what a little King Vulture sounds like 👀
creachur… 🥺
btw if anyone wants to know what she looks like now. she’s one :)
creachur! 🥹
She got the Benjamin Button disease
Just realized that the reason I love making friends on tumblr is because it’s exactly how you make friends on the playground as a six year old. No, I don’t know their name but they love mermaids too and built this awesome sand castle. No, I don’t know their age but their imaginary cheetah is friends with mine. You like this show? You like this character?? You can sing the theme song really loud??? Here is a flower crown. Here is a juice box. You can share my time and I might never see you again but part of you stays in my soul forever. In my mind we’re still on the swing set and the sky is blue and nothing will ever be wrong again.
Hey from a fellow former redditor learning this site, you should probably also add your age in your bio. Most people on here expect at least that much personal info bc it’s up to them to block minors if they post NSFW stuff or just don’t want to interact with minors on here
I am "Don't share any personal identifiable information about yourself on the internet" years old.
Yeah, the age thing is nonsense. People can and will and do lie about their age. I’ve always looked with suspicion on people who insist it’s mandatory.
I assume anyone who insists on everyone posting an age for themselves is either incredibly naive, or a predator looking for those who are naive enough to believe them when they claim to be the same age.
YOU. CANNOT. TRUST. A. POSTED. AGE. TO. BE. TRUE.
A. POSTED. AGE. THAT. MATCHES. YOURS. IS. ZERO. GUARANTEE. OF. SAFETY.
...It's also not on you to go out of your way to find and block minors (yeesh, that would be all you'd ever be able to spend your time on while here!) but it *is* on you to PROPERLY TAG YOUR WORK so that anyone- minor *or* adult- who isn't comfortable seeing NSFW content can avoid it.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: the Internet is a public space. It is not my responsibility to protect someone else’s children from seeing any content that is inappropriate for them--it’s their parent’s responsibility to protect them and teach them how to avoid that.
And if you are a minor and you are going to whine that the alternative is your parent takes away your ability to access said public space? Maybe you’re too young or immature to handle the responsibility of being here, then.
Not a poll / vote just take what you need and pass it on, for lots of good luck 🤍
I really love the convention here of referring to people as ‘tumblr user [username]’, it has the same energy as ‘citizen’ or ‘comrade’ but with the additional top-heavy gravity of 4 entire syllables

The Zero Comment Challenge is a way for readers to find new stories and reach out to authors they want to encourage.
Every fandom has stories that get lost in the shuffle. Maybe they were posted during a busy time and didn’t get much attention. Maybe the author didn’t tag as effectively as they could have to get their story in front of the audience it was intended for. Maybe the fandom is just really shy so they leave kudos instead of comments.
The Zero Comment Challenge is meant to find those authors and give them some love. Go to the AO3 search and filter by comments, then look at the fics that don’t have any comments at all. Find one that looks interesting to you and let the author know what you thought. They get to meet a new reader and you get to find new fic. Everyone wins!
credit to @polizwrites for originating the idea and @copperbadge who wrote the first post I can find about it here.
Just putting this out there to let people know to watch what they post because you can be found and if you think that the government can't do this ...
Well, you better think again!!

I showed this video to my 2 y/o niece last night and now every time I get out my phone near her she says “chicken. song”
[A bombastic orchestral piece plays, to which the chicken steps in time.]
