If you see this you’re legally obligated to reblog and tag with the book you’re currently reading

Expecting an author to explicitly detail every feature you might wish to affirm, and to resolve every idiomatic expression, is very much like demanding an author to spell out the work’s morality (lest it be presumed the author condones all that is written).  The failure to connect with an individual reader’s imagination does not necessarily equate to a failure of the writer to establish proper description.  Their works exist in a support, inspiration, provocation role.  You are expected to bring something to it.  Your own cultural upbringing, your own personal experiences, your own family values, your own ethical framework are the skeleton of your media consumption.  No publication can be relied upon to entirely outsource a developed personality.  The moment you allow yourself to expect that, you allow those natural pieces of yourself to be not supplemented, but supplanted.

I don’t like getting intense over petty things, but why are people calling large paragraphs “bad formatting” now. It’s just formatting. Sometimes, a larger paragraph serves its text well, and sometimes it doesn’t, and there is a LOT more that goes into making a text block readable than length alone.

Please please please fucking please stop inventing all-encompassing arbitrary rules about what features define “good” art and “bad” art.

THE VERY FIRST STAR TREK SLASH FIC PUBLISHED

“A Fragment out of Time”, published in 1974. Kirk / Spock. page 1 page 2

I had to share it with you because I can’t stop laughing, and every time I reread it it just gets funnier and fUNNIER

if you fuckers do the skeleton war shit again this year we’re deleting the website for real

a non-selective plan for the resurgence of fic commissions

Chappell Roan really was like "I won't endorse Harris because of the continuing genocide and the fact that the Democrats aren't protecting trans people. I am voting for Harris but won't endorse. You should expect more from your politicians and that's what I want before I endorse anyone" and got absolutely insane amounts of hatred and vitriol for that not only normal, but morally righteous take. And then because of aforementioned insane amounts of hate had to cancel shows due to mental health and then got MORE HATE. Like wow! Starting to think you don't want principled and authentic celebrities, don't care about women's feelings, and don't understand how mental illness affects people! It will entirely be entitled fans fault if she steps back forever from releasing music

It’s October! You know what that means... 🎃 (via kxvo)

EDIT: I know it’s supposed to be “1st”, I just did a dumb. ;3

16 frame shooting star animation. January 2022-September 2024 Needlepoint

Frames from my shooting star gif. 16 frames total. Each frame is 8x6.5 inches on a 10” mesh. Designed and animated in photoshop and needlepointed by me. I started drafting this 1/14/22 and finished animating it 9/25/24. It took approximately two years and eight months to finish. This is one of the largest projects I’ve ever worked on and I’m very happy with how it turned out.

My name is Helga Sinclair. I’m acting on behalf of my employer, who has a most intriguing proposition for you. Are you interested?

ATLANTIS: THE LOST EMPIRE (2001)

are you cis or trans, and if trans are you transmasc or transfem? it doesnt say in your bio anywhere so i was just wondering

Does anyone remember when you weren't supposed to tell people online your personal info and it was weird and suspicious to ask for it I miss that sometimes

chappell roan is right about one thing that y’all parasocial fucks aren’t ready to hear yet and that’s that you shouldn’t base important fucking choices in your life on what a fucking celebrity tells you to do

leftist media discussion: "While this show said "trans rights" directly without any ambiguity, one plot element of this children's show could be considered morally questionable after 25 degrees of separation, so the author must be a heckin fascist"

right wing media discussion: "Well it happened. The reboot of Female Protagonist Fights Unsubtle Allegory for Capitalism That I Was Too Young to Notice as a Kid -our last bastion of apolitical entertainment- has gone woke because they made a supporting character black"

centrist media discussion: "did you see the latest episode of Sword Hero Cleanses the Undesirables on crunchyroll? best show of the year imo"
