Hello, lovely people! I’m Synapse. Welcome to my madhouse. Since you’ve been so kind as to join me here, I figure it’s only polite to give you a quick guide to the mayhem.
But firstly, to all of my followers, both new and old: thank you, thank you, thank you for following my humble little blog. I can’t express how much I appreciate your support. Thanks for putting up with the nonsense <3
Tags & Tagging Policies:Â My masterpost is HERE. This includes my spoiler policies.
Queue: The vast majority of my reblogs are queued. The queue is virtually always full and runs 24/7.
Content: It’s a bit of a junk drawer, really. Here you’ll find posts from my current main fandoms, writing, fanfic, various LGBTQ+/queer things, anything I find funny or cute, and a variety of other assorted fandoms and topics. My main fandoms are currently Leverage, far too many audio dramas, DC’s Batfamily, The Locked Tomb books, The Murderbot Diaries books, Discworld, Hades from Supergiant Games, Fullmetal Alchemist (primarily Brotherhood), and the Spiderverse films. (Check the tag masterpost's "Fandoms" section for more.)
I avoid posting about current events, though they may show up occasionally. It’s not that I don’t care--it’s that I care too much, and I try to protect my mental health. Fandom is my escape.Â
I typically write metas, reaction posts, and fanfic. Those are usually posted as soon as they’re written. Outside of that, much of my content is queued reblogs. I do not tag queued posts. My queue normally runs somewhere between ten and twenty posts a day, although it may run higher or lower at times.
You can explore my Ao3 fanfic here.
I am very burned out as of the moment and have little energy for interacting with folks, so my replies may be slow and rare. I love talking to mutuals and online friends; it's just not something I can always handle right now. My apologies, and thanks for your patience.
NSFW Content Policy: I rarely post NSFW content. When I do, it is always appropriately tagged.
Generative A.I. Policy: I do not use generative AI, nor do I support its use. If I've reblogged something made with generative AI that is not labeled as such, it was unintentional, and I appreciate a heads-up. (I will occasionally reblog generative AI content if it is accompanied by explanations of how to recognize it, but it will always, always be labeled.)
This blog is a safe space for people of all genders, orientations, races, ethnicities, cultures, religions, backgrounds, countries, mental/physical abilities, e.t.c. Discrimination and bullying are not tolerated. I will be liberal with the block button if necessary. However, I'm not perfect, so I may miss something. Please politely let me know if something slips through or if the poster is a well-known exclusionist.
Where’d those cool pictures for your icon come from?: I’m glad you asked! Check out my list over here. The bird is a long-tailed tit.
Thank you for reading! Have some extra brownie points <3

if your necromancer is digging that is NOT cute. they only exhume bodies when they're extremely stressed. a proper well-enriched necromancer is provided with enemies to kill and reanimate on a regular basis and will make their enemies claw out their own graves as a play behavior.
alternatively you might have a mad scientist that was sold as a necromancer. this is sadly very common but the two breeds actually have very different habitat requirements

idk if this is controversial or not, but I really like when non-professional writing like fic has hints of author bleedthrough when it comes to like, what different people assume is common knowledge. Like sometimes I’ll be reading a fic and it’ll just be obvious that the person writing it is either obsessed with medicine or has been to medical school, because they’ll use terms that are just a shade too technical without explaining them. It’s never the super specific stuff that they’d know other people are unaware of, it’s always the things that once you’ve known it for a while you forget it’s niche knowledge. It’s fun because as a fanfic reader it reminds me of how this is a fun hobby community, where everyone has their own thing going on outside of fandom. Everyone’s got their own specialties and they can’t help but write that into their work sometimes
see this is exactly what I'm talking about. this labour is so incredibly invisibilised that there are real human beings, walking about amongst us, leading normal lives, etc., who earnestly believe that machines can make an item of clothing from start to finish.
Hey just in case someone on here doesn’t quite understand how labor intensive making a garment is, here is a list of things that (to the best of my knowledge) cannot be done by machine alone, from a costumer/tailor in training
Cutting - in my opinion, the most labor intensive part of the process. The amount of time/effort needed varies depending on the pattern and if seam allowance is included or marked separately, but no matter what this process can not be done by machine. Each and every panel and piece of fabric that goes into a garment must be cut by hand by a person.
Pinning/clipping - pinning (or clipping) is the stage at which you align the pieces you are going to be stitching together and hold them together with — you guessed it! — either pins or clips. This can not be done by machine.
Stitching - the actual sewing. This can be done by a sewing machine, but that machine still needs to be operated by a human being.
Ironing/pressing - two words that mean the same thing. The iron itself is a machine, but once again, it needs to be operated by a human being.
Finishing - depending on the technique you use, there are certain finishing techniques that can only be done by hand. But, let’s assume we’re talking about fast fashion, which is usually just finished with a simple overlock/serger. Once again: these machines need to be operated by people.
These are just the basic steps to making a garment, and don’t include textile arts that I am not as knowledgeable about, such as weaving, knitting, and crochet. Also, it is important to note that there are a lot of things that can only be done by hand, such as certain stitches and decorative techniques.
Also, the machinery being operated in textile factories is not equivalent to a domestic sewing machine. We’re talking about one of these guys:
See that gray cylinder under the table, behind the knee pedal? That’s the motor. These machines can sew through your fingers bones and all and not even stop. The people in these factories and sweatshops are operating heavy machinery, and are subject to all the risk that comes with that in addition to all of the work I mentioned above.
Please respect textile workers and continue the fight to eliminate the use of sweatshops and exploited labor in the fashion industry!
One like nitpick thing that drives me crazy is when people call Blue Whales the largest whales or the largest living mammals or some shit like that
Because yes that is true. But when you frame it like that you are completely disregarding the absolutely batshit reality that Blue Whales are the largest animals that have ever existed on earth through the entire history of the planet and they are alive right now today

i love you female characters who make selfish choices they know will be bad for everyone. i love you female characters who think they're making the right choice but make things worse. i love you female characters who are making the right choice but noone else understands it.
im bad to argue with because i have jesters blood if you misintepret me i'll just go along with it. when i was a teenager i was trying to explain the concept of the heterosexual default to someone and they were like "so you think everyone should become bisexual?" and i was like. what the hell sure. lets have legally enforced bisexuality. i'll die on a hill for the bit dont fuck with me.
Y'all, this was debunked eight years ago by Snopes. The KKK does not have a tax exemption. That said, yes, there ARE hate groups who do have them, so it's not like this isn't a problem. (See this 2021 article by the Anti-Defamation League and this 2023 article from The Conversation.) But the KKK is not one of them.
Unfortunately, some hate groups do currently enjoy tax-exempt status.
A number of extremist and hate groups are currently registered as tax-exempt organizations with theIRSand many of these groups appear to be
The First Amendment, along with a lack of clarity on what counts as an educational mission for charities, can lead authorities to approve ap
