Making an intro post after 5 years on this site wowee !!

the famously unproblematic white authors of ao3

you can tell a lot about someone based on their phone background. it shows what’s most important to them

Reblog this and put what your phone background in the tags

Ways to show a home in a show or movie belongs to a Jewish character that isn't just lazily having a menorah in the shot for 0.02 seconds:

-Mezuzah on the doorpost/s

-Hamsas hanging on the wall

-Shabbat candles on a shelf somewhere

-Basket or drawer full of endless monogrammed and logo-ed Kippot from past weddings, B' Mitzvahs, and holiday parties.

-A calendar with both Hebrew and Gregorian dates on the wall

-A collection of Jewish books

-Various Jewish ritual items scattered around

Ways to show a character is Jewish outside of their home:

Unfortunately, this will require reblogs.

"he said this" "she said that" ok and??? The universe said I love you?? And the universe said you have played the game well?? And the universe said everything you need is within you??? And the universe said you are stronger than you know??? And the universe said you are the daylight?? And the universe said you are the night?? And the universe said the darkness you fight is within you??? And the universe said the light you seek is within you??? And the universe said you are not alone???? And the universe said you are not separate from every other thing?? And the universe said you are the universe tasting itself, talking to itself, reading its own code???? And the universe said I love you because you are love?????????????

Whatever happened to being a quirked up white boy with a little bit of swag? You guys used to love busting it down sexual style

What able bodied authors think I, an amputee and a wheelchair user, would want in a scifi setting:

What I actually want:

Ambulatory wheelchair user + chronic pain additions:

A few more things to possibly tack on! (Ambulatory aid user here, I use a wheelchair, canes, crutches)

For wheelchairs:

For crutches/canes:

And finally, if you've got a cool idea, feel free to run it by someone who actually uses whatever aid you're writing about to get an opinion! (With permission, please, don't just barge into a random person's inbox. I myself am totally open to questions like that, and I know @cripplecharacters is a good resource!)

whenever i find a good world heritage post i do my best to carefully remove unnecessary "why is this so funny!!" or "i cant believe i found the original" reblog comments. sometimes it takes a bit of work digging back through the reblog graph to accomplish this but fine art restoration is tedious but important work

movie theatre attendant says “enjoy your movie” i say “you too” i whip out an extra ticket we go on a date

are you freaking serious did they actually put steve in minecraft

in my delirious half-awake state i appear to have typed the wrong game

“Silent protagonist” that screams constantly

This is most of them I think

Being obsessed with your own OCs but literally never creating any art or content for them is such a curse. You'll be like "this reminds me of blorbo from my head :)", and everyone else will just be like "? who thef uck"

walter white wouldnt have killed all those people if he had decided to just put on the biggest talent show this town’s ever seen to raise the money instead of making meth

i love how whenever something gets popular the underground tormented avant garde bloggers start becoming self conscious of liking it/finding it funny, and it eventually evolves into aggression towards it. doesnt matter what it is. unrelated but i saw someone call isopods cringe today

This is the most important post on this site

I love how we got the introduction to TREE LAW a few weeks ago, when that story went viral on Twitter about the person whose neighbor illegally had all of their trees chopped down because they wanted a city view, so that we would understand what was happening when Universal thought it would be funny to deprive strikers of shade by "trimming" city-owned trees to the point of destruction.

This is an excellent example of organically teaching concepts without relying on tedious tutorials or forced, immersion-breaking expository cutscenes.

A++++ game design. 10/10, no notes.

why is this site trying to become twitter. why must everything i love die

(every CEO in the last 5 years for some reason) hmmm today i will catastrophically mismanage my company to the fullest most embarrassing extent imaginable
