hello hi, this is an intro post. so this blog is where i put nonsense into the world. ik these posts are supposed to be short BUT it happened and i don't wanna cut it down now
i'm almost always up to chat with anyone, so send me an ask. it can be about literally anything (not joking). but please don't send donation requests or anything i do support palestine/gaza, ukraine, syria and other countries decimated by disaster but i'm a minor so i cannot donate i'm so sorry
featured tags: i will be tagging every single post i am so sorry it will be insufferable but categorisations makes me happy ok and leaving some posts just out in the cold makes me sad
so a character list bc that's what intro posts are for i think:
you can just call me glue :)
minor, bisexual and some sort of asexual, she/her, Indian, IB curriculum struggler
artists i listen to: quite actually everything, this list changes too much. but rnb, kpop (skz, nct (all units), ateez, p1h, cortis, cortis, lngshot, unchild, enha, a little rock, pop, literally everything idk how to explain it (i like chase atlantic and esha tewari, do with that what you will)
other stuff i like: aerospace/aerodynamics, jellyfish, greek mythology
i love the starless sea it's my absolute fav book ever
ship haters: when i say ship haters, i mean people who hate and degrade on people who support certain ships. not those who are uncomfortable with certain ships like pro-ships i am too, but if you dont like just block and scroll
anyways
i lowkey feel like this is getting really long so main fandoms, minor obsessions, and reason behind my url (im really proud of it tehehehe)
Main Fandoms: marauders (multishipper), skulduggery pleasant, MCU, Good Omens (TV Show), Grishaverse, Song of Achilles, disney, Arcane (!!!), PJO HOO TOA (haven't read Kane Chronicles yet but that's the only one i skipped)
Since I'm a part of the marauders fandom, I think it's essential to say that i do not support or agree with JKR in any way, honestly fuck her, she doesn't deserve any of your money or publicity because someone who just uses it to hurt people and be uninformed on an influencial platform really doesn't. please boycott and put in the effort to educate yourself (this point is mainly from the marauders and harry potter fandom but also in general. be aware where your money is going). Also since the snape discourse always comes up and I know thatâs kinda like a divisive point the best I can explain my standpoint is through a series of posts: basic standpoint, snape's worst memory and sexual harrassement
Minor obsessions: K-Pop Demon Hunters, HTTYD, heartstopper, new girl, derry girls, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, cruel prince series, good girls guide to murder, These Violent Delights/Our Violent Ends, dead boy detectives, the addams family (goals), BBC Merlin (it's growing, i just started watching), carmen sandiego (i cant believe it actually exists im tweaking out)
my usernameeee: the history behind the username is i went down a rabbit hole like a year ago and made my own personalised website on wix.com bc i wanted a place online to yap and be creative (also made it bc substack looks sooo fucking ugly i couldnt possibly use it, im sorry substack users but i have this urge to use only pretty things) (that's a shitty apology im sorry). and then i made it fully and then forgot about it 2 weeks later. amd then i found tumblr and it's like i found another piece of my soul soooo. oh wait. username lore. yes. this is what i named that website. and it's based on this pin on pinterest thats just a series of text messages and they just go "idk how to say it lol" and then the other person goes "throw words out" "i'll put them together"? well, i saw that and i cried, and because in the thick of moments, i can rarely articulate myself properly when i speak so this blog is like an attempt to put my own words together when my head is like jumbly and stuff aren't sticking im sticking tiny pieces of meaning together <3
also definitions cause i like them and it's cute and im proud of myself for thinking of it:
glue (noun):Â an adhesive substance used for sticking objects or materials together.
morphemes (noun):Â a meaningful morphological unit of a language that cannot be further divided (e.g. in, come, -ing, forming incoming).
you can stay if you want and take a peek. i promise it wont be too insufferable

Like you do need to recognise sometimes that a person is not picking up your social cues and adjust your communication style accordingly. If someone isn't understanding you then you need to change up how you're communicating and not just say the same thing over & over.
i am 100% convinced that mobile phone/ social media bans for under 16s are an attempt to remove kids and teens from public life. this is not protecting kids this is locking them in houses with no escape from their abusers. the world is so hostile to teenagers rn
cook - @jeggyverses-jegulus-microfic - word count: 290
âIâve got it,â James said confidently, grabbing for the check as the waitress set it on the table in front of them.
Regulus smirked and nodded approvingly, allowing his boyfriend to begin to reach into his wallet.
The waitress, Amy, grinned. âWhere did you find him?â she asked Regulus, gesturing to James. âAnd have you got any more? You know how many times I have blokes come in and tell their dates to pay for themselves? Despicable.â
Regulus chuckled, his face politely blank. âWeâve been dating since school,â he offered, intentionally staying vague.
But Amy just seemed even more impressed and eager to talk. âAnd he still treats you? Lucky man,â she beamed, elbowing James almost flirtatiously. âWish I could find someone like that.â
âIâm one-of-a-kind,â James joked back, preening, handing her a muggle credit card and winking at Regulus, who scoffed, deciding he needed to set Amyâs opinion right. Nobody should care this much about a customer.
âHe also offered to cook a romantic dinner tonight and ended up almost burning our flat down,â he added, pursing his lips at James.
James groaned, covering his face in his hands while Amy burst out laughing. âAh, there it is,â she said, taking the card and walking away to charge it.
âCâmon, Reg!â James whined after she walked away, frowning at him petulantly. âYou canât just let her think Iâm a good boyfriend?â
But Regulus crossed his arms and raised an eyebrow. âWhy? Nobody needs to think that. Youâre dating me. The only one who needs an opinion on your boyfriend skills is sitting right here, Potter.â
This however, just made James grin. âYouâre jealous,â he announced triumphantly.
âYouâre irritating.â
âYouâre perfect.â
Regulus ignored the pleased warmth that flushed through him.

i wish we were able to talk about women's rights without someone mentioning how much they do or don't want to have sex with them. i don't care if you're a lesbian Stop finding worth in women purely from their perceived attractiveness
"I think women should not be expected to shave for societal respect / to avoid discrimination" "yeah𤤠i love bush" ok well that's not what we're talking about is it.
i hate how many posts about trans women deserving respect always devolve into "I love girldick" or "trans rights but I don't want to date a trans person" because that's entirely unrelated to the topic at hand. you should not respond to feminism with "YESSS I loveeee you because I see you as nothing but a sex object" you people sound like other men I get stuck talking with that end up saying "free the nipple so I can see boobies in public" and thinking they're feminists. why can't we just respect women regardless of your attraction to them or not. why does it need to be brought up in every conversation regarding their rights
If you ever hear the phrase "fascism is aesthetics as politics," that's what this post is talking about.
It's not about being tough on crime, because the absolute toughest most brutal measure you could take against "crime" as a social problem is to alleviate poverty, and increase access to education, healthcare and social mobility.
It's about performing "tough on crime" as an aesthetic by enacting violence against a prop, i.e. minorities and the impoverished, who are fetishized and objectified to represent "crime." They are brutalized as punishment for crime, but never with the purpose of alleviating the problem of crime.
This is why a lot of conservatives and other right wingers can get straight up angry when you suggest things like reform or social measures to reduce crime. They don't want crime to be reduced, they want an eternal war against "crime" because it provides an arena for the righteous to demonstrate virtue by brutalizing their enemies.
sci fi is all about desperately trying to reclaim your violated bodily autonomy. itâs all about asserting that you are a being with agency, and you can choose what happens to your own person, even if thatâs ripping tubes out of yourself. and also sometimes an alien is there
A frustrating part of the mainstream vegan âlove all animals and protect the environmentâ mindset is the fact that things need to die in real-life ecology all the time but deer hunting season makes icky feelings and carp culls arenât cottagecore
The vegan âany animal death ever is morally wrongâ mindset doesnât hold up when:
We donât have any of the large predators we used to (black bears, mountain lions, or gray wolves) but still retain large deer populations. If nothing is removing animals, theyâll quickly overload the carrying capacity of the environment and have massive losses to starvation and disease that can also pass on to livestock. Human hunters replace the large predators that our landscape can no longer support.
Itâs kinder to euthanize an un-releasable hawk rather than try to find it a permanent home with humans. Wildlife rehabs have extremely limited space and resources and are usually run entirely on donated money and volunteer time. Only a few are large and stable enough to care for permanent residents long-term, and those spots are few and far between.
An invasive species poses a danger to threatened native wildlife. I will admit- Australian possums are adorable. But not in New Zealand, where theyâre an invasive species that eats the eggs of ground-dwelling birds that previously had no such predators. The landowners I worked with replanting native bush, all native Maori, had no qualms about setting the dogs on them.
I donât know how to end this except. Sometimes things just gotta die and acting otherwise just isnât a realistic expectation.
Highlights from the notes over the past 6 months include a lot of angry vegans saying âyouâre blowing things out of proportion, no vegans actually think like this!â and a lot of people who work in conservation and education saying âEvery day. I have to fight people who think like this.â
As a bonus this post was originally inspired by the vegan who called me racist for saying we should kill invasive species

We're at the "JK Rowling is personally funding litigation to try and destroy AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL" stage of rabid UK terf brain.
Screenshot via Alejandra Caraballo @esqueer.net on bluesky
Tldr Amnesty International, global human rights organisation, published a report called 'A growing threat: the anti-rights movement in the UK'. In it is detailed, amongst others, a whole bunch of transphobic groups and organisations, including Beira's Place, JK Rowling's trans exclusionary sexual violence support service. JK Rowling threw a shit fit and got Amnesty to take the report down by threatening libel. This was obviously not enough, because you can't appease a fascist, so now she's going to bankroll a bunch of lawsuits anyway through the JK Rowling Women's Fund.*
You can read an archived version of the report here, please save it and share it.
*Not so friendly reminder there is no way to engage in the wizard books without enabling this shit.
my approach to transness is just "you can do whatever you want forever" like genuinely who gives a fuck if you don't go on HRT or don't care about passing or don't use common pronouns or whatever the fuck. like at their core every anti-trans argument is about denying bodily autonomy and forcing adherence to cishet perisex norms, so all of these constant, cyclical arguments about how "[xyz group of nonnormative trans people] makes all of us look bad and that's why we don't have rights" are just stupid as fuck. there's no type of trans person that's palatable to a transphobe. the reason you don't have rights is because cis people don't think any of us deserve bodily autonomy and it's a waste of time and energy to pretend otherwise
was talking to a coworker and realised i could not for the life of me remember his name but i was too embarrassed to ask because we've spoken multiple times so mid-conversation i started concocting a plan to nudge the conversation towards the ID photos on our building passes so that i could be like oh my ID photo is awful haha the camera they use to take these has a real talent for making me look as unphotogenic as possible and then he would say oh yes me too haha everyone says that (because they do) and then i would be able to say well let me see yours it can't be as bad as mine! and he would show me his ID because we are coworkers and why wouldn't he and this would allow me to see his building pass which of course would have his name on it and then i would be able to say well yours is perfectly nice it must be me that's the problem! and then we would have a polite chuckle about it and i would have his name without needing to ask for it and he would be none the wiser and all would be well but then before i could execute this fine plan a little voice in my head went "so this is some light yagami bull shit you are about to pull" which was such a violent reality check it shocked me completely out of my embarrassment and i went "hey im so sorry your name has slipped my mind could you remind me" and he did and it was fine.
"This is some Light Yagami bull shit you are about to pull" <- Littany against avoiding small embarrassing/awkward moments that don't matter with over the top ass mind games.
I don't understand how cis people obsessed with gender norms think trans people are the weird ones. they're going around believing that your name has to correlate to your genitals. your fashion has to correlate to your genitals. your behaviours have to correlate to your genitals. your hobbies have to correlate to your genitals. who you date has to correlate to your genitals. whether you can put sparkles on your eyelids or not has to correlate to your genitals. and then people like me go "hmm. I might not do that. maybe I'll just do what feels fun and okay instead" and they LOSE their MINDS

if you want to dress gay but arenât sure how, you need to focus more on finding clothes you actually like and that make you feel good when you look in the mirror. develop your style independently of what you think looks gayest and trust the homosexuality will follow. it goes where confidence and self acceptance are
