youtu.be/AVGYFysIVDQ?... Speaking of Slavic Christmas Horror, instead have some Slavic Humor. I'm told this commercial has been part of the Czech Christmas experience for over 20 years.

My coworker posted a picture of Loona licking a can of monster energy drink that has rather clearly (to me) been edited over a dick. This poor lady is likely too old to know any of this and just wanted to say she likes monster energy drinks. I probably shouldn't say anything but ...

The holidays are always a very stressful season, but I'm glad one thing doesn't change. One thing that brightens my day every time it comes up. Scaring my fellow Americans with Slavic Christmas Horror.

Ugh. Day 8 into 16 without a day off at work. My brain is FRIED. I wasn't able to finish this Charlastor Christmas fic last year and it's a bit bonkers to try again this year, but then again sanity was never high on list of priorities anyway.

Having seen something traumatic as a child and spiraled into panic, Serena quickly realized her emotions were an inconvenience to the adults around her. Seeking help resulted in people thinking something was "wrong" with her, so she shut up and shut down. Life is safer when no one notices you. Ever.

This is one of the most profound statements & pieces of wisdom I've ever seen in a meme 🖤 Go enjoy the forest, for the Wolf is always near. 🪾🐿️🍁🐺

"the writer's barely-disguised fetish" WRONG, all my fetishes are out in the open and actively make what i write even better

Alastor and his office chair this season was comedy gold! I loved every second of it! It's also weirdly relatable, because I spent 6 yrs in a call center hating my corporate overlords, entertaining myself passive aggressively, and assuming various positions. Tied myself to it a few times too. Oops.

This is the most clickbait-ass title I’ve ever seen, but a lot of the reactions to Amir’s post are kind of yuck. Have whatever ship you want, but calling Charlastor a “straight” ship is bi-erasure and is something bisexual women deal with a lot when in relationships with men.

Promoting the #Charlastor Dreamwidth Community I set up in case anyone would like to discuss their feelings on Season 2. It's member-locked as a formality to discourage trolls, so just request access. charlastorchatterbox.dreamwidth.org/673.html

The answer to that is intentionally left unknown. There are many cultures and religions in New Haven, each with their own individual concepts of an afterlife (or lack thereof).The only consensus is that the divide between alive and anything that might come next is absolute. The living don't know.

"Why do humans only tell stories about conflict?" Because anything else is a weather report. Conflict is so broad that it can be broken into infinite categories: Man vs Man, Man vs Nature, Man vs Self... You asking yourself that question is Man vs Self. If there is no conflict, there is no story.

The red flag post left me thinking about shameless characters and how shamelessness is often considered a negative trait. I specifically enjoy writing Orin as being shameless because - to his perspective- shame is both cowardly and hypocritical.

Orin might have once been the family Golden Child, but he's been collecting red flags for centuries. - Truth is only about what you say, not what you don't say - Obsession is love, right? - Etiquette =/= Ethics - God-complex? That's only for people who *think* they're a god. Orin *knows* he is.

Continued original story content, because why not. Warning for bullying/child abuse.

Okay, so I took the plunge and made a Charlastor community on Dreamwidth. charlastorchatterbox.dreamwidth.org You have to request membership, but this is just a formality to weed out bots and low-effort trolls. I'm not as familiar with Dreamwidth, so please feel free to make suggestions. 💙

After reviewing the options, I can't find a way to create a Charlastor forum without both spending IRL money and knowing more coding than I do. The censorship online of what adults can consensually discuss continues. That being said, is anyone interested in a Dreamwidth fan community?

It's Sunday after a long week and it's time to be self-indulgent. An alternate intro for an original story. Having the attention of powerful beings isn't always safe for little rabbits.

Well this is very frustrating, to say the least. As I was setting up a Charlastor forum on Proboards, I found that the rules ban NSFW content and that's a problem. With that in mind, does anyone know of alternative sites like Proboards? I've seen private Livejournal communities suggested.

Sometimes you can read into a piece of media a lot of depth and complexity that doesn't exist. Once upon a time I was a fan of an obscure manga and the forum I joined was filled with enthusiastic fans who had discovered so many clever references and allusions worked into the plot. Every theory was

The majority would fall between reluctant to forgive and dangerously hostile towards dishonesty. As a community of supernatural individuals who are often sensitive to the intentions of others, a lie is more than just personal dishonesty - it's an insult to someone's intelligence and perception.

So there seems to be enough interest to justify an attempt at forum creation! My next step is to pick a domain name. Does anyone want to volunteer a suggestion? I can do something very plain/direct like CharlastorFans but I'm open to more creative naming ideas.

Okay, my plate is fairly full but I have returned to my original intention of starting a basic forum for Charlastor. Are people still interested in that sort of thing?

Day 3 of #aceweek and day I-don't-know-how-many of me trying to best articulate the issues I have with how asexual and aromantic characters are treated in fandom, forever hoping to get the point across #asexual #aromantic #shipping

Mine prefer to refer to themselves as Wolves and the Children of the Moon Mother, because they recognize human myths are referring to a diverse group of shifters all lumped under a catch-all English-language name. They're a hybrid species who cannot "turn" others, only pass on their (dominant) genes

Some of the most perverted people I know are asexual. It's a special sort of thing. Their minds are capable of coming up with shit that no human being with a real sex drive could ever conceive of.

Recent incidents have made me once again long for the days of forums and locked fandom communities, when the entire fandom wasn't jammed together into one giant conglomerate mass, hatred and hot takes weren't encouraged and rewarded by algorithms,

Maybe I’m old school, but this is deeply inappropriate. Fandom spaces are for fans, not creators. Of course people are going to have a negative reaction when a creator comes out and says “lol I hate one of your ships, but I won’t say which one.” This is purposely stirring the pot

Of course personally I don't even let myself partake in queer reading from an ace lens because my hopes are that down the drain to begin with... Anyway happy first day of #aceweek #asexual #aromantic

Well, this has been quite a day hasn't it friends and fandom neighbors? I will still watch The Show In Question because a ton of talented individuals have put a lot of work into it and I don't believe that their efforts should be discarded because their boss has the same level of maturity

“When they rob us of art and emotion, that leads us towards the aesthetics of fascism. In this film, all the sets are real, the decor is human-sized, there are painstakingly created miniatures... It’s there to remind us that art is not only necessary, it is urgent. And AI can go fuck itself!”

The wildest thing I ever saw was a youth pastor explaining why it's really a Good Christian show and it mostly came down to how he assumed everyone watching was identifying with Heaven and the exorcists wanting to destroy sinners. Which was certainly telling.

Steve was a down on his luck accountant during the Great Crash when he was involuntarily turned. It was traumatic and not a choice he'd have made, but he didn't let that, the Great Depression, or the magic community's discrimination against vampires keep him from his one true love:crunching numbers.
