Hi there! My name's Logan: Wanderer, storyteller and professional jack-of-trades. I left my hometown when I was fourteen to see the world. Haven't regretted it once. This is mostly gonna be a collection of reblogs and shout-outs, since the mod's not really up for starting his own blog seriously.

My utter disdain for the 2010s era of Nerd Culture eternally evades me. I cannot articulate the trail of slime it leaves in my thoughts.

There's something beneath the simmering misogyny and lobotomized consumerism and hair-pin reactionary politics that I can't quite pin down. I haven't been able to pin it down for years.

In hindsight it does kind of feel like they were responding to the lessening of the prior decades’ mockery and exclusion by desperately seeking more approval. Painting everything in bright colors and putting on cheery shows so that the perceived “normal” people would finally accept them.

back at the turn of the century there was this brief fad for techno mixes of classical music, which despite its short lifespan remains possibly my absolute favourite subgenre ever, even above ‘this angry robot wants to fuck you’. it appears the orchestral world has responded.

not saying I’ve been stressed recently but i was so happy to see this that i genuinely burst into tears

the editing on this video is SO GOOD TOO

Reblogging just so I have easy access to this when I want it.

Yes, but what a shame, what a shame the poor groom’s bride is

uh… Thor?

Some people will have no fucking idea how funny this is if they haven’t heard the story.

Look at Loki helping in this version–he looks so excited!

We were robbed of this scene and I feel it in my blood.

The best thing about this story is that Thor really doesn’t try, at all.

Like he puts on the dress, he keeps his mouth shut, but that is where his contributions to keeping up this ruse end.

Loki is the one who has to come up with an explanation for why the blushing bride has just finished off half the banqueting table and washed it down with four full barrels of mead (“Freyja was so excited for the ceremony, she hasn’t eaten in a week!”) and, when the groom takes a peek under the veil, why she’s glaring at him with such clear murder in her eyes (“she’s er… tired. Like super super tired. Hasn’t slept in a week.”).

Thor barely restrains himself from slaughtering everyone in the room until his hammer comes out, and then he grabs it and uses it to slaughter everyone in the room.

Depending on how you read the scene he’s either genuinely unaware of how women are meant to act (or potentially too Masculine to restrain himself) or he’s just so full of contempt for Loki’s plan that he refuses to put in more than the very bare minimum.

Or Freyja is Just Like That and Thor thinks he is doing a particularly good job impersonating her - she is a war goddess after all.

Okay, but here’s the best part: None of this is Loki’s fault. Not only did he, for once in the sagas, NOT cause the problem, but the bride getup was Heimdall’s idea. Heimdall. It’s one of the major hints that his character is more important than we get from the Eddas, but Loki gets to participate in this without so much as a scornful look. Just imagine Hiddleston playing up that detail.

reblog Magneto punching a Nazi

you won’t get anything for it, except for a kickass photoset of Magneto punching a Nazi on your blog

Normally I don’t do this ‘reblog X’ thing, but this is worth having.

Mod: I’ve got some pretty big plans coming up for the story arc here, including a fairly nice cameo count and I need to fill some spots.

So if you want your oc to cameo, reblog with their ref pic. Sorry, by this time it can’t be changelings unless they’re in a pony or similar disguise, or are reformed.

Also, if you’re an ask blog and want to participate in this upcoming arc (crossovers, etc.) IM me!

Sooo excited!

For this giveaway, a number of followers will be chosen and filly-ified (transformed into a younger pony) so they can play together with Bubblepop!  Everypony is invited, even changelings or deer or scary monster ponies!

Rules :

  • Gotta follow little bubble! New followers are of course invited to play!
  • You can like and/or reblog this post, however I need to have access to a ref sheet or drawing of your pony!  If you have one linked to from your page, you just need to like it! If not, id prefer if you reblogged with a ref! (I will not include you if I cannot find a ref!)
  • If you reblog it, it must be to the blog that is following it!
  • 1 like and 1 reblog both count as an entry.  Feel free to reblog a bunch of times, but I’m pretty sure tumblr only counts one so I will only count one.

Everyone included will be turned into a younger pony.  If theyre already a youngin, they will be included as they are.

If you have questions regarding this contest, please direct them to mod at her blog.

This contest will end on :

Saturday, September 27th at 3pm PST

Ah, to be young again. Not that Lucky ever really grew up, so let's see who he is inside, shall we? There's a pic here: http://kakashischika.deviantart.com/art/Half-Dragon-Hero-Commission-421815163

Though at that age his ear is probably fine.

Pic for lucky-charm-the-wanderer for correctly guessing the protagonist’s name of my fanfic :D

Want to read it? It’s on fimfiction here

EEEEE! I love your style, and he looks perfect! The expression is just how I imagine it: Excited, ready to see what's around the next corner. I'm not sure if it's intentional, but the background makes me think of a winding road - again, perfect for him.

  If anyone sees this post and isn't reading this blog, I can't reccommend it enough. It was one of the first I followed and I haven't looked back once. Every post leaves me wanting more.

((Woo!  I’m finally doing a Giveaway thing!
Anywho, I’m going to give away drawings  to 10 people of their OC.  The winners can choose if they want a regular white background or for it to be transparent. (Sorry, I’m not doing backgrounds because I still need to practice those)  They will also be able to choose what there OC will be doing.
Now to the Rules:

IT’S MY BIRTHDAY TODAY!!!

So I’m giving away 10 free still image drawings to my wonderul wonderful wonderful followers based on this little ditty that’s been circulating around

And you can ask for anything you want!!!

The drawing will be on the 3rd of July so I can use the rest of the month to finish commissions that haven’t been completed yet.

♪♫ RULES:~• Must be following Pinkie-Replies cuz i ♥ my followers and they deserve nice things always… All except you Cameron… You know what you did…

• Reblogs count for 2 entries, Likes count for 1! You can reblog up to 10 times, no need to spam your wonderful people with this, amirite? OOH! Also! Main blogs are important so I can see that you’re following me, sooo keep that in consideration!

((Not really but I didn’t know what to call it
Anywho, I’m going to choose 10 ponies for a follower picture. (because last time I did a follower picture I did 20 ponies and I could barely fit them all in the picture)  But I’m going to choose by random this time . (so I don’t feel bad for not choosing someone)
So if you made it past my little ramble here are the 
Rules:
-To enter just like or Reblog
-Please only Reblog once (sorry but I think it’s unfair for some people to reblog many, many times)
-If you reblog more than once you will be disqualified 
-If you don’t have Ref or a clear picture of your oc on your page I’ll choose someone else
-Oh and you must be following me (Though I think that’s self-explanatory)
And that’s it for the Rules.
This contest thing ends on Sunday, June 15, so I’ll announce the winners… whenever I finish the the follower picture.  (It’ll be a surprise!).  Aaaaaand that’s it! ^_^))

Rebloggin' with high hopes! And a ref pic. For good measure.
