play pretend (pov tubbo, character/relationship study, 1.5k words)
Tubbo remembers Tommy like this.
It is a warm summer night, and the mosquitos aren't out quite yet, but the eggs have been laid in the riverbed, so it's only a matter of time. Tommy is beside Tubbo, and he is brighter than the sun that's just dipped below the horizon, brighter than the fireflies that tentatively make their way out from the forest. Tommy laughs and smiles and he says something that makes Tubbo laugh, and it's all a little blurry. His mouth curls around the two syllables of Tubbo’s name, breathlessly repeating himself through incredulous laughter as Tubbo plays up his own cluelessness just to hear it. Tubbo is not so innocent, but he pretends to be, for Tommy's sake, the same way Niki pretends to be soft and Fundy pretends to be impatient and Wilbur pretends to be kind. Tubbo does not resent Tommy for this. He will pretend to, in the future, but in Tubbo's memory, there is no anger — it's almost a relief, to be clueless with Tommy. It feels like Tubbo is the better version of himself.
That's what Tubbo remembers of Tommy. He made Tubbo the better version of himself. He made Tubbo want to be better. He made everyone want to be better.

we gotta get back to torrent distribution, i just watched someone eat eight grand in bandwidth charges because they ran a direct-download piracy site with local file hosting through cloudflare. torrents were invented literally for this exact reason
i have a file or folder on my pc that i want to share with other people. let's call it gayshit.mp3
unfortunately gayshit.mp3 is 750mb and im not paying for discord nitro so i need another way to send it
i put it into qbittorrent and it makes a torrent file. this is essentially a very small file that points to gayshit.mp3 so other computers can find it. kinda like a treasure map
i send this tiny file to my friend, who loads it into qbittorrent. their computer takes a moment to find mine over the vast expanse of cyberspace and then (as long as my pc is running and the file is still where it should be), it gets copied from my hard drive to theirs
this is the cool part: if somebody else loads that tiny file, they can download it from both of us. if i'm offline but my friend is on, the third person can still get it. this also means that if two people have separate halves of the file, they can download the other half from each other. as long as some combination of people have the pieces between them, they can all have the whole thing.
crucially this does not require a server!!! you can just upload the file to a few people and as long as they keep it, it's still accessible. as long as somebody, somewhere is still connected, it's available forever. the only way it goes away is if everybody disconnects from it.
theres a phenomenon that happens on here i have been calling "normalize loving parents posting" which is when you spend a lot of time on tumblr and are exposed to a lot of one specific counter-cultural narrative day in and day out until you start to forget what the dominant ideas are for most of the human population and thus feel the need to "defend" things that are widely accepted and popular. it's called this because of the time a bunch of text posts about shitty dads were circulating and then people with good relationships with their dad didn't feel included enough and started making "uhmmm can we normalize loving parents? not everyone has a deadbeat dad, MY dad is great" type posts, seemingly forgetting that good relationship with dad is a cultural norm that is expected and encouraged. i think its good practice, especially when im annoyed, to stop before i hit the post button and ask myself if this is a real issue or if im normalize loving parents posting. because often im about to try to normalize loving parents
In 2026, the chicest thing a gay actor can do is never explicitly come out as gay but also make it abundantly clear that he is. Coming out is too modern. Staying closeted is too old fashioned. But this method merges contemporary freedom with Old Hollywood glamour and allure, and it weeds out the dumbest people who truly don’t get it. I call it the Pascal Method.
You clearly don't go here or to queer history and signaling, or both, enough to have this conversation and I'm not going to explain it to you. You could have asked questions, you could have done even a modicum of research. You didn't and you made yourself look ignorant. Goodbye.

yesterday my grandma found a penny on the floor and said to my grandpa “there’s that penny again, pa!” and i absolutely lost my mind because i couldn’t shelve the thought of a single panel Far Side comic of two old people on the front porch in the middle of nowhere and a giant penny angrily and inexplicably rolling through the wastes
George Russell and Alexander Albon, "Know your Competiton" — from Formula 2 Insider Magazine, Issue 24 [Abu Dhabi, 2018]
transcribed below the cut!
Going into the final round of the 2018 season at the Yas Marina circuit, George Russell and Alexander Albon were the sole drivers left who could claim the Title. We know they are very good friends, but how well do they know each other? Who's been doing their homework? (Hint: he is infamously known for giving stellar Powerpoint presentation...)
How old is your rival?
George: 22.
Alex: I don't know!
George: Why not? Straight away I knew for you!
Alex: It's for points? For the championship? Is he 20?
Easy start. 1 point each.
How many categories has your rival won?
George: In single seaters? Formula Renault, Formula 3, GP3, Formula 2, so 4!
Alex: I'm trying to think if he did any bonus ones! George has cruised here a bit more! Let's see: BRDC Formula 4, Formula Renault, then you joined me in Formula 3, GP3, and Formula 2. Five.
Another tie, a point each.
When did your rival win their first F2 race?
George: I know that one because it should have been me! It was Baku, Race 1. I had a coming together with Nyck [De Vries] with a few laps to go, and it still stings because I've had a few problems with the car or whatever, but in my mind that's one of the ones when I could have potentially won or come second, and that would have been the championship already done...
Alex: Sochi... no, Baku!
George: We'll take the first answer!
Alex: Baku Race 2, because in Race 1...
Once again, a point each. Close fight.
How tall is your rival?
George: We have a massive thing about this, as we're quite good friends and we always argue about who is taller or not! Alex is slightly taller than me, at 186cm. We had the same trainer last year and he is much smaller than us, so it was a joke for the whole year!
Alex: 185cm. But this is the problem: he claims he's shorter than me, but I just say I've got better posture than George! And a bigger head! I'm 186.5, and he's 186, and if he's saying anything different he's lying.
George: Well that's all you need to know, isn't it? [laughs] And my forehead is much shorter!
Alex: He's saying that right, but it's because his forehead is so small! People don't realise that George's forehead is small! Everyone says "he's got a big head" [to me], but no one says "he's got a small forehead"!
George: He was a great footballer at his school, because he could head all the goals home! But no, I've got a massive head! I've got the maximum size in helmets!
We need to move on, and it's going to take forever to transcribe this! 1 point each.
How many of him would it take to match the height of the Statue of Liberty?
George: I got this completely wrong last time! Probably 50 Alex's, we should be the same, or maybe 1 less Alex...
Alex: I have no perspective of how big it is: have you been there?
George: No. And even if I saw it, or looked at that building over there [the Viceroy Hotel] I still wouldn't know...
Alex: 100 Georges!
George: That's 400m tall: that's taller than the Eiffel Tower!
We were going to give George a point for this until he sent us a WhatsApp that evening crowing "I got that exactly right!": 186cm x 50 does equal 93m, the height of the Statue of Liberty, but as Alex stated that he is actually 186.5cm that would equal 93.25m, so half a point to George. And for being out by an entire Statue of Liberty, no points for Alex.
How many races did he win this year?
George: 4.
Alex: 4. Thank you for posting it yesterday!
Curses, our communication strategy is too effective. But Alex didn't read it too well, as it clearly stated that George had 6 wins. A point for George only.
How many times has he been on the podium?
Alex: I'm too lazy to count the races, so I'll say 8. No, actually 10!
George: I think it's probably 8.
And how many poles?
George: 4.
Alex: 4.
Both right on the podiums, but shockingly George is wrong on Alexs' poles: 2 points to Alex, 1 point to George.
Where will he be in five years' time?
George: In Formula 1 I reckon: not sure which team, and hopefully not fighting me for the championship!
Alex: Brushing the streets of Abu Dhabi! Or getting a proper haircut!
George: Mind games already!
FINAL SCORE
George: 6.5
Alex: 6
We'll have to wait and see on these predictions, but George Russell scrapes the win over Alexander Albon by half a point, which is apparently equivalent to the difference between their foreheads, or alternatively an entire Statue of Liberty, or something. To be honest, we're a little confused now...
[REALLY NORMAL AND WELL-ADJUSTED VOICE] well you never know maybe it COULD have saved me. if i ever actually achieved perfection. it could have happened then. if i was actually ever enough. Which i was not

“Subverting” Catholic art? Oh, okay. I see, you think this has nothing to do with you. You log onto the internet and you post about how “Wound of Christ” from Psalter and Prayer Book of Bonne de Luxembourg, attributed to Jean le Noir, c.1349, for instance, looks like a vulva because you're trying to tell the world that you enjoy Catholic art and imagery in an alternative, queer, risqué way that challenges Christian beliefs. But what you don't know is that that stigma isn’t just a vulva. It's not just a mandorla. It's not just yonic. It's actually intentionally erotic. And you're also blithely unaware of the fact that around 1297, Saint Angela of Foligno experienced a vision of Christ himself, who called her to put her mouth to the wound in his side and lick the freshly flowing blood. And then I think it was Saint Catherine of Siena who drank blood and a clear liquid from the wound before receiving a ring made from Christ’s foreskin? And then graphically erotic encounters with the side wound of Christ quickly showed up in the writings of eight different mystics. And then the yonic interpretation of the stigmata filtered down through the illuminated manuscripts and then trickled on down into some pseudo-intellectual corner of the internet…where you, no doubt, fished it out of some Pinterest board. However, that interpretation represents hundreds of years and countless visions of religious ecstasy. And it's sort of comical how you think that you've come up with an idea that exempts you from Christian theology when, in fact…you're posting an image that was sexualized for you by the very Medieval saints you think you’re so different than…from “subverted” Catholic art.

The thing about supernatural. Hello. I hope everyone is having a good day. The thing about supernatural is that I do think there is a part of jensen acjles that thinks if he makes the environment just a littleeeeeeeee more hostile. It’ll kill off destiel. The problem with this. Of course. Is that it is nigh impossible. To kill somebody with radiation. When you were feeding them the elephant’s foot when they were 14. This is my natural habitat now. Intolerable to life? Not to me. not in the world I’m living in.
