Just because

Such a friggin pretty dance 😍

i think the funniest thing I have ever forgotten to tell someone was that the boat he was applying to work on mandates their employees do the hokey-pokey

imagine you are me. your friend and temporary coworker, a reserved guy who walks with the grace of a jaguar and lives alone in the forest, is applying to work on another boat. he has it narrowed down to two choices, and he thinks he likes the style of one of the captains over the other. he is going to pick that boat. you feel very strongly he should NOT pick that boat. why, he says. you don't know how to answer, except to say that he would not be a good fit. he says he wants something easy and laid back. you watch him go, and it is only two weeks later that you bolt upright in bed and Remember

Aeonium ‘Zwartkopf’ - the black leaves contrast nicely against those little green eyes in the middle. Even in the middle of a bright sunny day you can get a feel for the blackness of the leaves, despite all the bright light reflecting off those shiny leaves. This photo was taken in spring, and the difference between what Aeoniums look like in spring and at the end of a hot, dry summer (like these) is striking.

Oh for fuck’s sake, people calling out racist writing in fanfic isn’t “censorship”. I say this as a fic writer but some of you need to get off your high fucking horse.

Truly some of the most irritating culture has sprung up around fanwork and fanfic in specific like… no, making something for free does not in fact make it sacrosanct or immune to criticism! Your right to “do whatever you want forever” or say “fandom is for fun” stops the second you’re being bigoted and making fan spaces unsafe for marginalized people!

"fandom is for fun" except for poc who have to deal with rampant racism and white people unable to acknowledge let alone take accountability for their racism
