My newest obsession is a rat girl made for Pathfinder2e. She's leucistic, with white hair and red eyes, and she dresses in all black just like a tiny, furry Elric of Melnoboné, but all she wants to do is teach you about maths.

She wrote which side of her shield should be facing up on the inside. Also she has a cheatsheet of notes about how to fight in there.

In large letters across the top it says, "if you are seeing this note, you are probably in a fight"

Perfectly normal day when your ratgirl sings a song about anatomical studies, you look at her journal and it's nothing but illustrations of dissected bodies with a bunch of alarmingly specific notes about how much torque humanoid anatomy can take and the tensile strength of various tendons.

Sad pathetic mew mew dresses like a cenobite because it hides the bloodstains.

"Why do you have a chart about how much tensile strength humanoid bones have, why did you write that information down?"

In my head, she's like the mousegirl version of Elric of Melniboné, but only by 20%, because the mouse versions are always kind of lighter and more fun. Despite my averagest efforts most of tumblr isn't familiar with this specific Elric. However, more of tumblr is aware of dramatic titty out fantasy book cover guy because it was a popular post

And that's a cover from one of the Elric of Melniboné books. So he is literally that bitch, but no single image captures just how absolutely dramatic and sorrowful he is, although this comic page sort of shows it

Look at that ridiculous face. Anyway, like transfer that to an adorable mouse girl who needs a label to tell which end of her shield is up, and who named her short sword "please stop trying to kill me," and that's her.

A rat is a type of girl

Her first outing went very well, the contrast between sweet innocent rat who is obsessed with architecture and keeps taking parts of dead things and messing with bones but turns into a combat demon worked as intended. I love it when a plan comes together.

Tumblr is ruled by fandoms, but which fandoms rule the hardest?

This week and every week hereafter, we’ll be figuring it out by tallying all the searches, tags, reblogs, and likes that go rumbling through our corridors. The result? Fandometrics. A pleasingly scientific ranking of the fandoms on Tumblr. 

Here’s a little preview of the #2 fandoms for each category of fandom we’re studying. Why #2? So you can enjoy the suspense of clicking through to find out #1.

#2 TV Show: The Legend of Korra

#2 Movie: Big Hero 6

#2 Musical Act: One Direction

#2 Celebrity: Chris Evans

#2 Video Game: Dragon Age

#2 Web Celeb: AmazingPhil

Find out the #1’s (and #3’s through #20’s) over at Fandometrics.

Last week, the entire editorial staff at Tumblr (my shiniest unicorns, my untamed rabbits, my very good amazing talented brilliant wonderful friends) were laid off bringing a very unceremonious end to the proudest moment of my career, @fandom fka The Fandometrics.

I just got an email repeating last week’s Week in Review (and i guess will continue to receive it forever because there’s no one to turn it off?) and i wanted to pour one out for the thing that brought me the most joy in my career and continued life after I moved on from Tumblr. I’ve been in deep mourning for everything this layoff has meant for Tumblr in general but today the reality of it really hit me. The radar (maybe one of the last human-curated things on the internet?) will just repeat the same 5 posts forever. There will be no more big weeks on Tumblr. Just silence on that blog I fought so hard for for so many years. The blog that my team went on to nourish and grow and do amazing things with in the past four years. That’s it. No goodbyes.

So here’s the first staff post about it. Tumblr, thank you for letting me do weird library science with my little spreadsheets and terminal scripts and all the ships that ever passed through anyone’s dash. Thank you to every person who ever touched the TagCat and made magic happen on that blog.

Fandometrics you will always be famous.

update - it looks like at least Week in Review will be continuing (shoutout to the one unicorn left standing) <3

oh so the Yankees made their bats thicker and hit 20 runs bc of it and the league is just like yeah they're allowed to do that?? this whole time apparently it's been perfectly legal to just change the bats to make it easier and no one tried it until right now?? 150 years this sport has been around and suddenly someone had a bright idea??

look at this shit man
