STRAG!

X-FILES IS MY NEW 2023 PROJECT!

WHY ARE THESE TWO LIKE THIS JUST FUCK ALREADY.

Wait, you’re re-watching it or watching it for the first time? Because both require all caps flailing replies, but at the same time they would be wildly different.

First time!

I've seen a few episodes here and there, but not all the way through.

OMFG, YOU’RE AN X-FILES VIRGIN. WE GOTTA... WE GOTTA RMC AT LEAST ONE EPISODE. LIKE, YOU CANNOT JUST WATCH THEM ALONE WITHOUT ME. HOW FAR ALONG ARE YOU? WHEN ARE YOU FREE TO ORGANISE A VIEWING?

I AM ON EPISODE 2X14! What would be a good RMC episode?

Can I invite some Hellcheer buddies too?

You already watched some of my most favourite episodes, Squeeze and Darkness Falls, both from season 1. That was very wrong of you, I hope you realise that.

Now, episodes we could watch together still: Humbug (2x20), El Mundo Gira (4x11), Small Potatoes (4x20), Bad Blood (5x12), Triangle (6x3), Agua Mala (6x13) Mulder and Scully Meet the Were-Monster (10x13) and Rm9sbG93ZXJz (11x7).

YES, YOU CAN INVITE ANYONE, JUST LET ME KNOW WHICH IF THESE EPISODES YOU WANNA WATCH WITH ME, PREFERABLY ON WEEKENDS BECAUSE I’M NOW ALSO GOING TO NIGHT SCHOOL.

I'M SORRY, I DIDN'T REALIZE THIS WAS A MAJOR FORMATIVE FANDOM OF YOURS.

Well, I'm about five episodes away from Humbug...

LET'S MAKE A LIST AND SCHEDULE ALL OF 'EM AS RMC NIGHTS, I'M FEELING WILD.

MAYBE WE CAN DO HUMBUG AROUND EASTER? LIKE, ON FRIDAY OR SOMETHING?

WHAT A PERFECT WAY TO CELEBRATE GOOD FRIDAY! WITH WHAT I'M ASSUMING IS A CHRISTMAS EPISODE!

I hope you realize this will require me pausing my bingeing. I hope you appreciate the sacrifice I make for you.

Yeah, about that. It’s not exactly a Christmas episode.

Also we must think of a drinking game to reward your restraint.

Tumblr Migration 2: Reddit Boogaloo

We all know about the Twitter immigrants, but there seems to be radio silence on what's happening now with Reddit users from certain subreddits doing a similar thing.

What's happening?

Reddit is restricting their API later this month and killing off third-party apps. An AMA (Ask Me Anything) with the CEO Steve Hoffman was held and it was clear that he would continue with the changes.

In protest, thousands of subreddits across the site are planning to go dark for 48 hours on June 12th. Some are planning to continue indefinitely until the changes are reversed.

Okay, so how does this affect Tumblr?

Some subreddits (mainly queer and left-leaning meme ones, don't worry too much about Reddit Atheists™ overrunning us) are encouraging their users to jump ship to our beloved - and beloathed - hellsite. There will be another influx of new users and many will be unfamiliar with how the site works.

What do us Tumblr users do?

Show them how to use the site; introduce them to the site's culture, tell them to reblog shit and curate their dashboard. Sorta like how we welcomed Twitter users back when they flocked here. Kungpowpenising optional.

I'm new from Reddit, what do I do here?

CHANGE YOUR PROFILE PICTURE AND BANNER TO SOMETHING OTHER THAN DEFAULT BECAUSE THIS SITE IS FILLED WITH BOTS AND YOU MIGHT BE MISTAKEN FOR ONE. This is the FIRST thing you should do after getting a blog.

Other folks can help you with stuff like curating your dashboard or creating sideblogs (or you can look shit up) but please, PLEASE just give yourself an icon and reblog some stuff so people don't mistake you for a bot

This is one of the first posts I've seen after trying to look at Tumblr again, so I've decided to head their advice and reblog this. I don't even know what a reblog is but I'll find out in time. It's a learning process

a reblog is what you just did! it's similar to a retweet on twitter and it's the main way things spread on tumblr

Surprise fic update one week after posting the first chapter. It’s like I’m not even me.

The Caretaker, Chapter Two

AKA: A Rumbelle Sugar Daddy AU… kinda.

Rating: Explicit.

Summary: Belle French had never thought helping came with strings attached, confident that in a community people naturally tended to help each other, until the day she needed help to keep the library open and no one seemed to care. No one but Mr Gold, whose penchant for dealing could always be counted on, even if the price for his generosity was known to be steep.

Robert Carlyle Thirst Post:

The Smoking-Hot Edition, 6/9/23

Well, so much for doing these posts once a week. 🤷‍♀️ I’ve been in the middle of two moves, with the second one hopefully wrapping up within the next month as my husband and I finally get into our new house. In the meantime, things are pretty stressful. But all the better time to stare at some Robert Carlyle, yes? The sexy bastard is my happy place.

So. I’ve never smoked. Not once. But I look at the following pictures and I totally feel like I could use a cigarette:

Obligatory PSA: Robert Carlyle is gorgeous no matter what he does, but smoking is still bad for you.

As always, I invite you all to reblog with any of your favorite smoking-hot pics/gifs of Bobby. Hope everyone’s doing well! Happy late Thirsty Thursday, and have a great upcoming weekend.

He makes everything look hot af. 🥵

It’s just that his hands look so pretty when he does this.

Anonymous asked:

"I promise that rumors of my degeneracy have been greatly exaggerated." - Sad but true. I've been lurking since your Rumbelle days and the glaring lack of raptor/lactation/etc in your Hellcheer fics is clearly a sign that you've gone soft ;) jk jk jk luv uuuu

Look, I’ll get my degeneracy back again! I swear! Hellcheer raptor training just turned into Belle the raptor trainer showing Chrissy the ropes.
