I just love the posts people put up for the mutuals. It’s totally like—‘oop, time to refill the tumblr bird feeder! I wonder what will be attracted today? Oh look! A red crested naval mutual. Oh yes, I wondered if the Star Wars warbler would show up. A bit early to see the stabby beaked Caesar but they’re keen aren’t they?’
"You don't know me. I'm not the same person anymore."
"That's okay. I'll get to know you again."
“ Zip it, both of you. ”
sometimes when reading classic superhero porn fic scenario "hero is auctioned off to a group of bad guys who are bidding for the right to do evil 😉 things to them 😍" i'm like i love this but man it's so common, who started this trope? what porn fic got this thing going? is it from the livejournal era, perhaps? from the days of print zines? and then i pick up an innocent dc comic to read and like okay nevermind dc was stroking it to that idea before any of us got the chance to invent it
The answer to “where did superhero comics fandom get this weird/fucked up and/or porn fantasy fic trope is always, always “an actual real comic that Marvel or DC actually published.”
all of tumblr: we fucking hate bots
also tumblr:
Hey, I LOVE bots when they’re just here to play with us. COMMERCIAL bots suck.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
OP made the post unrebloggable but said it's fine to screenshot and I'm in love with this
Do you think people who are virgin should write smut? I feel like most of them don’t even know what they’re writing and just write what they think sex is
the implication this ask suggests that people who write about murders, cannibalism, politics, magic, royalty au, sci-fi, wars, supernatural, time travel, medieval era, werewolves, vampires, mermaids or goblins must be murderers, cannibals, presidents, wizards, royalties, astronauts, ghost hunters, soldiers, time travelers, knights, werewolves, vampires, mermaids or goblins in real life is so funny to me
Dude, the enemy is not "the group of people who can afford a nice house and car and take vacations and eat well and have enough saved for retirement."
The enemy is the group of people who make it IMPOSSIBLE for EVERYONE to have a nice house and car and take vacations and eat well and save enough for retirement.
In the US, "poor people" USED to be the people who had not-so-nice houses and cars, or who had to rent instead of own. And it's not the dentist down the street who changed that; among others, it's the ultra-rich CEOs and shareholders who refuse to pay a living wage so they can live off your labor, and the exploitative corporations that buy up as much housing as they possibly can and charge exorbitant rent so you'll never be able to own your own home. It's the bosses who decide that "excess" food must be destroyed if it cannot be sold at a price that enriches shareholders. And it's the politicians who encourage and enable all of that.
Your average upper middle class family has enough money to have nice things, put their kids through school, and not have to think critically about every purchase they make.
Your average billionaire has enough money to convert it to gold and build an island in the ocean out of nothing but gold. And probably to also build a mansion on it and buy a helicopter to commute with.
Those... Aren't the same thing.
Tearing down the people who made it to what the absolute minimal level of what quality of life ought to be for everyone doesn't help ANYONE. You shouldn't be mad at the people who have some savings; you should be mad at the people who've made it so you can't have some savings as well.

my beloved mutual, were you aware that you’re the funniest person on the planet?
Caught the moon hanging out in the bird bath this morning.
Reblogging this picture from 2016 because I just saw it again and I can’t believe I got this lucky with the cheap little silver gray point-and-shoot digital camera I had then. It was taken from an upstairs window. People have accused me of photoshopping it or faking somehow but it was just one of those moments when I was lucky.
In Galadriel’s Mirror I see a pearl
looks like an album cover
for no reason whatsoever here’s a reminder that if you consider yourself a leftist/punk/abolitionist/anarchist/radical in any sort of way and get called into jury duty, you are to become the most square person on earth during the jury questionnaire!!!
don’t be that guy who says fuck the police in the jury questionnaire! that just gets you sent home! if you want to generate change, interact with the case and use your jury vote for good! ESPECIALLY if it’s a high profile case!
Remember, when you're on the jury, a good "that cop's story didn't add up" will sway a lot more Chads and Karens than "fuck the police."
Man, we have got to stop treating art like it has an expiration date. That show stopped airing? Doesn’t mean it can’t haunt your every waking thought. Everybody’s into this album, but you don’t have the energy for new music right now? It’ll be waiting for you when you’re ready. That movie’s fifty years old and indie as shit? Incredible, you have the chance to share it with folks who might never otherwise feel that particular punch of delight. Books don’t go bad. Shows inspire fandoms decades after they’ve wrapped up. We’re still looking at cave paintings and statue work from ancient times and letting the joy of creation bring tears to our eyes. That’s the point of art. It’s as close to immortality as we ever get. Why try to give that magic a shelf life?
