my reaction to people taking a monsterfucker pairing and making an AU where the monster is/turns into a human will always be an extremely disapproving scowl and a side-eye at how the humanized version is always white. get real.
Sometimes at work when I'm on Scarecrow Duty [standing still for hours] I write little awful poems in my head to describe movies I've seen
. First name Ryland, last name Grace Sacrificed to save my race Shot my ass to outer space Make friend in unexpected place Good friend Rocky, he is best Hear when organ thump in chest Friend with Human, watch when rest Invent foods he can digest
this was so beautiful i paused mid sandwich to write
saying out loud "wait why am i watching this" and shutting off the crappy youtube video you were just using to kill time is a sign of growth

anyone else relate
today in church one of the priests referred to trans people as "those who are growing into the gender they were called to be" and i'm kind of enjoying the idea of like....divinely ordained top surgery
some of you need to stop psychoanalising your kinks and start doing mad scientist shit to them instead.
no more "do I enjoy being tied up because I secretly crave an excuse not to fight back against intimacy because of my mother", that is dumb and useless.
start doing shit like "what do I like about being tied up? what part of it gets me going?" and then once you have isolated the components of the kink that are the main drivers, look for all the other kinks that contain them. mix and match. get creative. experiment.
merry talks to kids in ithilien like ‘and remember: you’re NEVER too small to fight an unspeakable ancient eldritch horror’ and eowyn says ‘he’s right you’re not’ and faramir’s like PLEASE don’t
merry, a freakishly tall hobbit, says the same to anyone in the shire who will listen and they’re all like ‘that doesn’t sound right but i don’t know enough about unspeakable ancient eldritch horrors to dispute it’
several small hobbit children come to the conclusion that the most unspeakable ancient eldritch horror around is that really big newt that lives in the pond by the Party Field and hijinks ensue
baby hobbit, fumbling with a newt: this is JUST like when mr merry fought the witch king
merry: correct! the witch king of angmar was naught but a wriggling newt unto mine brave and heroic eye!
sam: i wasn’t there but i can guarantee that’s not how it happened
do you think sam ever tells anyone he went after the daughter of ungoliant with a sword or does he not think that’s relevant
Faramir:
Personally I don’t think Sam finds out about the Ungoliant thing until years and years later.
Yeah, after giving the hobbits time to mentally and physically recover. Gandalf and Elrond are like, the trails you went through should be recorded, can you tell us what happened?
Sam: Sure Mr. Elrond. Well you see you couldnt get in through the front gate of mordor.
Gandalf: naturally.
Sam: So we went in the back way.
Gandalf and Elrond give each other *looks*
Elrond: where the cloaks given to you enough to slip past the dark mother of spiders?
Sam: Well, no. We had gotten separated, and that big beast of a spider had gotten her grubby mits on Mr Frodo. So I took up Sting and gave her a right good stab. I figure since Mr Bilbo was able to use it against the spiders he fought, it would do alright?
Elrond externally: one eyebrow raise.
Elrond internally: what the fuck
7-y-o hobbit boy spotting a fat spider:
“Imma fight it!”
8-y-o hobbit girl spotting a large tree that looks like an oliphaunt: 🤩 “Imma fight it!"🤩
despairing hobbit parents: The Bagginses used to be so respectable! Now they and their relatives encourage *scandalized whispers* adventure! What is the world coming to??? *proceeds to drag hobbit child off by the ear*
hey you kind of set off my prey drive. wanna get out of here ? you first

Do you have resources for Black characters who are into alt subcultures or fashion? As a non-Black poc, I've seen Black people being excluded from rock, goth, etc., despite rock's obvious Black roots. This character is not an OC. He has dyed locs, piercings, and dresses like a skater boy. I would like to know more about alt Black artists because I know he would listen to them, and he would be involved in the scene, but I only know a few. Thanks!
No; for Black creators interested in fashion, try @uptownlowdown , @iridessence , @sardonyxlestrange , and look into AfroPunk and AfroGoth!
hi anon! i would implore you to check out “the secret history of black punk: record zero” by raeghan buchanan! buchanan is a black alt comic artist who used to perform in punk and hardcore bands before shifting to art full time. she’s truly one of the coolest people ever.
My sister took more photos of my dress. I am very happy with how this turned out :)))))
Only one more weekend until the Renaissance Faire!!!!
My journal article is going through final edits with the publisher and will be out in the next two weeks or so.
It feels very bittersweet knowing that my first “big thing” in academia has to do with sibling bonds and shared knowledge in raccoons, where one sibling later died and the one left had to keep the knowledge alive.
And my brother also died, and now I have to remember what he tough me about invasive plant management and habitat restoration in order have the most fireflies in my entire neighborhood.
Fanfiction is cool because you get to learn what other people's parents taught them the hymen is like
I know that I had somewhat unusually comprehensive sex ed but it still surprises me every time I'm reminded that some people genuinely think that losing your virginity is a capri sun kind of situation.
Update, there is now an official (non-racist) translation of the manga by Viz Media! I’d encourage you all to buy it and give it a read! It features multiple stories of different mixed japanese characters and some non-japanese characters.
When being mixed-race makes you an outsider, feeling rooted can seem impossible.

Our Commitment to Maximum Inclusivity
AO3 was founded partly in response to a growing trend of fanworks being removed from websites that had previously allowed them. This pattern has been observed numerous times throughout fandom history.
Whenever there are fears about censorship on other sites, AO3 sees an increase in the waitlist for our automatic invitation queue. Regardless of their reasons for joining, we welcome any new user to our site who agrees to abide by our Terms of Service. We will not vet new users for "legitimacy", because AO3 is for everyone.
The OTW has no plans to change the content we allow on AO3, and we stand by our commitment to maximum inclusiveness of fanwork content. We will not remove works unless they violate the AO3 Terms of Service, and we don't make decisions based on how many times something is reported. Users do not need to worry that anyone's works will be taken down due to a baseless report or a mass-reporting campaign, if one were to occur.
Regarding the unverified rumors that reports to the Policy & Abuse committee have greatly increased in the past few days, changes in ticket volume can be due to many different factors (including simple coincidence). If you're interested in learning more about how many and what kinds of reports the Policy & Abuse committee receives, we publish information about the previous month's tickets in our monthly newsletters as well as an annual breakdown of ticket types on the OTW website.
I love it when a classicist has clearly gotten so lost in the BCE sauce that their perception of time has become deeply warped. Case in point: the article I’m currently reading just described the Byzantine era as “a period relatively modern.”
Stop that’s too funny
objectively, they're right
