this is definitely on purpose on tumblr's end because now there's a little icon that says 'gif' in the upper right corner of every gif and now when i click them they start playing i suspect this is a cost-saving measure, but also. do they know what site they are?

I know what the Richard red ball says and you don’t

a mutual said mr. brightside, which is obviously the correct answer, but i definitely could also make arguments for party rock anthem and, of course, welcome to the black parade some other contenders that come to mind: gasolina, something black eyed peas

for some reason, tumblr on my desktop isn't playing gifs on my dashboard; i have to click them to see them run. this isn't happening on my phone. i don't know why this is happening but i hate it

the show isn't for like four more hours but i'm excited so here's the start of the thread! #mcr rockville today! VERY curious what the show will look like

speaking of surprises, i think some of my moots will enjoy waking up to some of the newly revealed cards #dnp

i’m mostly refraining from commenting on the new #dnp photocards in case people want to be surprised but i have sooooo many thoughts one thought i will share (because they showed some themselves) is that they are absolutely weaponizing/monetizing phandom’s love for trip selfies and i respect it

i've been struggling to get what harry styles has been going for the last couple album cycles, but i got this video. it's coming back to the sexy bisexual group vibes from fine line, but with dancing/dance music (which makes sense with his live performance vibe) www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rkj...

big thunderstorm rolled in! it’s def time to turn off the desktop when you don’t have time to count between lightning flash/thunder sound

i don't disagree with people boycotting the met gala over besos this year (he should be made to feel bad everywhere in public he goes), but i'm also looking at pics of hudcon there this year and this is why i don't feel bad about it lmao (let's tag this #roryMG. i won't post much, but just in case)

we're having another bunch of earthquakes over a few weeks, so i'm indulging in the honored tradition of people in these conditions: posting about it online

still laughing about this ngl but i'm thinking about it again because i'm trying to think of good art ref for troy barrett (i probably won't use him specifically but david corenswet was the first idea i had after i read troy's physical description on a wiki) #roryHR

Wow, someone wrote vampire Shane Hollander and it wasn't me. #roryHR archiveofourown.org/works/82567451

loved how close #dnp got on the couch during ep 2 of buffy. wonder if we'll ever get a full-on cuddle

i've spent more nights than i can count staying up way too late reading fanfic, but tonight's maybe the first time i've done it listening to podfic

i've been obsessed with this choreography since i watched the full music video a few days ago. (it's storm by gener8ion; big content warning for bullying for the first half of the video if you look it up. this is the second half.)

both the site formally known as twit and this site are switching to a carousel of pics vs. a grid of pics and i had no opinion until i tried it and now my opinion is: bad. it works like crap on desktop, works barely better on mobile, and two/three pic carousels especially are unnecessarily fussy

i have this too and it's so funny. oh no, how dare you punish me by giving me exactly what i want also, i rec the add-on "distraction-free youtube" because it goes even further. hide related videos is broken sadly, but a lot of the rest of it works

It's Independent Bookstore Day so everyone better fucking buy books from my friend's beautiful store, roomofonesown.com OR ELSE

Calvin's Dad Meme: Despite being emo music, My Chemical Romance is actually 9/11

i didn't finish a bachelor's, but i had to do a senior project to graduate high school, and my project was writing a novel. the paper that went with it was about speculative fiction. i gave a presentation to a panel and everything.

i would do the same “tell me what kind of fic i would write” meme, but today i’ve been noodling with hr fic where shane is a (disability-analog) vampire and ilya’s a werewolf, and the meme would just be redundant #roryHR

the phil fun-vacation pose but his arm is around dan 😭 i’m fine 😭😭😭 #dnp

i just wrote a 4k notfic about this lmao. i don't know if i'll share it because i'm very insecure irt canon knowledge in both directions, but i had a good time #cql #roryHR

saw a random comment where someone said they wanted a romcom about ship wars and my brain immediately went "wangxian but wwx ships shayden and lwj ships hollanov" and dear god my brain is a little too enthusiastic sometimes #cql #roryHR

the experience of being a fandom old is seeing that one picture that everyone thinks is tom hardy but isn't and thinking "wow, i can't believe people still think that's tom hardy", and then you try to remember how you know it's not tom hardy and you can't remember. but you're sure it's not tom hardy

going from three days of coachella right into the phodcast is an emotional whiplash lmao #dnp

@annemari.bsky.social i knew she'd show up SOMEWHERE

another update today. i love this story so much #roryHR

ever since i watched the hudson williams peleton ad, i've been horrendously earwormed by david bowie's fame and i can't seem to make it stop

this entire thread about crafting in omegaverse is fun but i'm sharing this part because i have literally been daydreaming about how i would design arenas in omegaverse contexts if major scent-related events were a thing/could affect crowds

me 🤝 karina get obsessed with the american idiot broadway cast album once a yearish #drawfee

very funny that status dot bsky dot app isn't loading for me

apparently i have two modes. mode one is reading and/or writing + music. mode two is video games + visual media and/or audiobooks. i'm in mode one right now, and it's a relief because i'd been stuck in mode two for years. but also i miss movies? i always miss whatever mode i'm not in. alas

i wish everyone the same joy i felt today, when i remembered that one of my favorite RPF ships hard launched six months ago because half of said ship happily tweeted that it had been that long

love that charlie saxton went out on one of gerard's nerd excursions. it's extremely the theater kid + nerd experience to die homoerotically onstage and then go look at minifigs or something #mcr

i wish everyone the same joy i felt today, when i checked my email and saw a long line of ao3 WIP updates and a notification that dnp’s patreon video was up

*rattles imaginary lightstick* TAEMIN TAEMIN TAEMIN #taemchella

oh noooo the heartstopper comic finished and i read the ending and now i'm very emotional

me, waking up today: grump grump i think i have a migraine and this is going to ruin my plans and i'm exhausted grump phil: [does a drunk dan impression] me: everything is beautiful #dnp

the thing i'm enjoying about couchella this year is that i'm having a good time without being super invested in watching most of the sets, so i can read a lot of fanfic while i have music i like playing. also the good thing about a dual monitor setup lmao

if you're in hr fandom and reading WIPs, you should be reading the chips are ready to fall (ilya ringleading queer players into coming out at opportune moments). i'm reccing this now because a part dropped today and the next part is going to be a big one #roryHR archiveofourown.org/works/789099...

it's raining really hard right now! it's hard enough that it was hitting my sheltered bedroom window and woke me up lmao

it's that time of year again!!!!! going to bed so i'll be well rested for dancing and forming music opinions lmao

good news: the merrily we roll along proshot's on netflix! expected news: my heart feels torn out now

funny that i linked this before i went to bed last night and a 29-podficcer version of the first story in the series went up just now! (i haven't listened yet, but it's worth marveling at just the name list) archiveofourown.org/works/82797026 also i'm changing my fandom tag to #roryHR fyi

if you're curious how much fic is in #HeatedRivalry fandom right now, i have 414 bookmarks on ao3. this post has ~20 recs. i haven't even read half of them. anyway, gonna link the ones i have read in a thread here and go to bed early so i can start on what i haven't lmao

Put together some recs of #HeatedRivalry fics I've been enjoying over on DW: goseaward.dreamwidth.org/151853.html

the #mcr tour isn’t really back until the end of june, but there are a couple shows next month and one of them is in about a month, and i am more than ready to thrash. so that’s a nice thing to look forward to (i was just skimming an mcr tumblr because i was missing them, and i remembered. soon!)
