words for murder

I bet Vetinari could fix Gotham. Mostly because he would create a Supervillains Guild, then sit back and watch them destroy each other with petty in-house politics.

Ok but just imagine Alfred and Wilikins meeting

Please return us to a world where Notp and squick are used for a ship you don’t like instead of just making up a load of bullshit about how immoral it is or w/e lol 

a short selection of concepts and phrases that used to be commonplace in fandom and we’d really benefit from making that a thing again:

NOTP: the opposite of an OTP (One True Pairing). It is a ship a fan strongly dislikes. The word is a portmanteau of ‘no’ and ‘OTP’ and thus is not a contraction of any particular phrase.

Squick: anything that is a deep-seated, visceral turn-off. Squicks may be shared by many fans or be specific to one; one person’s kink may be another person’s squick.

YKINMKATO, or kink-tomato: Your Kink Is Not My Kink, And That’s Okay: used to indicate support for fannish diversity and to distinguish between disapproval or kink shaming and simply having different taste.

DLDR: Don’t Like, Don’t Read: a phrase used to warn against complaints about an aspect of fic or meta. A “live and let live” philosophy of fandom, which places the responsability for avoiding content one doesn’t want to see on the side of the fanwork consumer, rather that on the creator’s.

SALS: Ship And Let Ship: similar to the above specifically about shipping tastes.

YMMV: Your Mileage May Vary: a phrase used to acknowledge that any given individual’s personal opinion on the topic at hand may differ due to their own tastes, standards, values, experiences, etc.

As the OP points out, all of these crucially imply no moral judgment of what they’re designing.

(definitions lifted more or less wholesale from fanlore’s relevant pages)

bring the healthy fun back to fandom!

As a Fandom Old, I endorse this message.

So you don’t have to watch the video every time you need one of these hacks immediately:

1. If you feel nauseated, smell rubbing alcohol.

2. If you feel like throwing up, start humming.

3. If you have a runny nose, put your tongue to the roof of your mouth and press your thumb to your forehead for about 20 seconds.

4. If you have a headache, pinch the webbing between your fingers and rub it back and forth for about 1 minute.

5. If you’re lightheaded from standing up too quickly, clench your butt cheeks.

6. If your arm’s dead/has the pins and needles feeling, rock your head back and forth.

7. If you need to pee badly, think of sex to trick your brain and relieve the pressure.

8. If you have a migraine, stick your hands in ice water.

9. If you wanna calm your racing heart, blow on your thumb.

If you’re lightheaded while standing up, opening and closing your fists is also something to do. Also try stretching before getting up!

(These are vasovagal syncope tricks, to get the blood pumping where it should be)

Thanks for adding another hack!

I used the humming one when I randomly started dry heaving today, and that shit worked so fast!👌🏼

M*A*S*H, the 4077 (hawkeye ver)

Im gonna be honest, I only want four more Knives Out films. Specifically so we can get three more girls to become a five man band and the last movie is where Blanc gets framed for murder and Marta, Helen, and the three other girls team up to save their gay best friend with their own special skills like a god damn scooby doo episode.

Marta looking up and checking medical records, Helen doing business stuff. One of the girls was a biology student or gardener and looks through plant species for kinds of poisons. One of them works at a theater and does stupid disguises. One of the girls has a movie where Blanc helps her fuck over the expensive medical companies and finally gets a service dog who helps her find clues in this film.

All the while we cut back to Benny Blanc who's crying about being bored because they are hiding him in an apartment but he is proud of his girls for saving his ass, hyping them up the whole time.

I know this will never happen but a stupid nonbinary bitch can dream...

*edit* Helen isn't doing business shit, she is beating up bad guys like the bad bitch she is

Reminding everyone again of Batman’s Aff His Nut by Robert Florence—the most poem ever.

Love how tumblr has its own folk stories. Yeah the God of Arepo we’ve all heard the story and we all still cry about it. Yeah that one about the woman locked up for centuries finally getting free. That one about the witch who would marry anyone who could get her house key from her cat and it’s revealed she IS the cat after the narrator befriends the cat.

Might I add:

The defeat of the wizard who made people choose how they’d be to be executed

The woman who raised the changeling alongside her biological child

The human who died of radiation poisoning after repairing the spaceship

The adventures of a space roomba

Cinderella finding Araura (and falling in love)

I don’t know a snappy description but the my nemesis cynthia story certainly lives in my head

hilariously, these are almost all in my fic tag. so, a compiled list from the notes (and some extras):

I am in love with you /p

Okay fuck it if this post reaches 666k notes by the end of 2023 I'll practise basic self care

Why 666k? Because it's funny and impossible so good fucking luck

Well, OP, I’m officially invested in this shit. Your whiny ass is doing self care if I have to drive to your goddamn house and do it for you.

By Talos this can't be happening

reblog this everyone i wanna see what happens when op’s reverse-hubris forces them to practice basic self care.

why? because it’s funny and completely possible actually so good fucking luck op

I figured out roughly how many notes it's been getting per day and multiplied that by the number of days left until the end of 2023

If we keep it going at this rate we'll be far past 666k

IMPORTANT

Okay so clearly I've underestimated y'all

So how about we make this more interesting?

I will practise self care if this post reaches 666k BY THE END OF 2022

Op you have fuckethed with the devil this post has gained 30,000 notes since I reblogged it last night

[image: a calculator app says multiplying two thousand by four hundred twenty-seven equals eight hundred fifty-four thousand.]

.

I love how we're all collectively Just That Determined to ensure this random stranger takes care of themself, and I look forward to how OP moves the goalposts next

I just remembered that I have side blogs.

I like how OP shamelessly changed the rules and moved the deadline up by a whole fucking year in a desperate grasp at avoiding someday having to do “basic self care” in the near future. Honestly, I would have never reblogged this until I saw that BS 😂 Here’s hoping that pettiness of people like me pays off. Gonna reblog this to all of my blogs now too.

"middle aged women shouldn't participate in fandom" and you think it's teenagers that are writing those brilliant, incisive 100k fics of your favourite characters

sometimes i think too hard about the way that we make mistakes of care. that love can enter into the air and warp.

in 1890, a man loved shakespeare so much he released 60 european starlings into Central Park. in shakespeare's work, you see, these birds often take stage as allegories for melody and grace. their wings carry flecks of light. and sometimes, i cannot blame him - what could be wrong about feathers and poetry? this is love sometimes, i think. the way we fill so much up with hope that we are blinded by the flock of it. we want a world sank deep in it. rustling with it.

my aubela liked the saying too much of a good thing. in spanish, it's actually lo mucho cansa - too much tires. for a long time, as a child, the idea was so startling to me. how can i have too much joy? too much laughter? too much love?

european starlings are now an invasive species that threaten the livelihood of native wildlife. in poetry, we call the turn from one theme to another "the volta" - where the story suddenly twists and becomes a new shape. there is a wikipedia page about this man's singular action.

the way i learned to hurt myself was by slamming myself against life as an expression of love. how could i be depressed if i simply was always polite, and charming, and down to have fun? if i was the funniest, kindest, most-available person? there is no such thing as being too much of a good friend, right? if i am always the one planning the party and being available and lending an ear. how can a person be too good at loving others?

i love grackles. i know other people find them ugly. they're just so sleek and beautiful. i love red-winged blackbirds and chickadees and sparrows. to be honest - i love starlings too.

my heart is central park and all the birds are singing. i love being called good-natured, it makes me feel like i'm winning. i will always be perfect, be lovely, be full of poetry.

my heart is central park and winter is bowing fingers into the fall leaves. something in me is buried badly. if i ignore it, i can cover the smell of rotting.

OK, so, in preparation of Europe entering into another dark age and the world ending, does anyone have any fic recs?

I'm looking for good, long, completed stuff and while it may be dark in places, I want my feel good mojo, please. I mean, you guys know what I like. Plotty but, like, cuddly plotty. Found family, but like, with murder.

Please and thank you.

Wow, thank you! So much good stuff in the comments and I have read very little of it, which is perfect!
