I’m deadly serious about Mr. Spriggs

give them back to me give them back to me give them back to me give them back to me give them back to me give them back to me give them back to me give them back to me give them back to me give them back to me give them back to me give them back to me give them back to me give them back to me ‼️NOW‼️

I feel your anger toward me, and I forgive you for it. Mrs O'Brien, if I've misjudged you, I am terribly sorry. Have I? Is there a place in your school for the Prophets?

accidentally stumbling across this article while looking for something else and taking a brief pause to stare into the camera like i'm on the office newint.org/features/201...

As a writer, I strive to always relfect our world somehow, esp in fantasy and sci fi. In Kipo, I wrote about a fictional dystopian Los Angeles that LGBTQ+ kids are very much a part of, bc it reflects the real LA we based it on. LGBTQ+ kids exist. Trans kids exist. That shouldn't be controversial.

I also didn't want to be This Guy, but we ordered together and I've reached out multiple times with no response, other than the email everyone got that all the orders had been shipped. I hate doing this to a small vendor, but I'm trying to contest the charge because $234 isn't exactly nothing 🤷

I really didn't want to make this post, but our DM's haven't been answered so I don't know what else to do. Our order from @cookiestraw.bsky.social never shipped and it's been nearly a whole year since we ordered it. At this point I just want a refund. Just a really disappointing experience.

man i was so correct here

every pumpkin you see is just a watermelon wearing corduroys. stay alert.

Again, it’s just worth reiterating that these people won’t stop no matter how much you attempt to coddle them.

the fact that you can’t even FATHOM POC in a FICTIONAL setting is crazy work. does that not make you uncomfortable?? that you think all brown people are subservient to white characters? your escapist fantasy requires racism?? and i’m supposed to sit here and hold your hand and say it’s fine???

really enjoying all the people trying to explain the bible to the pope today

you can't get just how lunatic and hateful UK media has been on this without knowing this. it is *astonishing* in both volume and spite.

I think true love is when you each think the other one is a magical creature who you cannot believe entered your life and brought all this whimsy and joy. But secretly, you just helped each other be your best selves.

they manic pixie dream guyed each other and i think that's beautiful

Over here child

Happy Kinktober Eve! Remember this?

I had so much fun doing this!

They're also women out of the workforce propaganda, which is of course a related project

Gooseworx, the mind behind The Amazing Digital Circus, literally warns about the inherent danger about it because of people like this

as an outsider to OFMD fandom (enjoyed the show, but not active in fandom space) I truly admire that they're going full Star Trek fandom with it. Shows been cancelled for how long? And they're still organising conventions, panelling supporting actors with relentless enthusiasm.

Me, grabbing you by the shoulders and shaking you: claiming that Izzy was ALWAYS protecting the crew or cared about them even in s1 totally misses the point of his S2 storyline!!!

Okay this one is actually good.

This is my regular reminder to everyone that jstor is open to the general public now; a free account there will give you access to 100 papers a year.

Effect of tariffs I've seen — Higher clothing prices overall — Overseas sellers covering tariff costs, but passing cost to the consumer — US stores dropping brands. Example: No Man Walks Alone won't be carrying Norbit this fall bc tariff uncertainty — Fewer deals. Ebay shuts down overseas sellers

it's simple: mutiny is the ultimate taboo punishable by summary execution but ONLY if you successfully murder the captain with your own hands. if you maroon them on an island to die of thirst, or you're fully in the process of murdering them but you're stopped by an outside event, those are fine

and lest we forget the alternate take of the snake snack scene featured in the iconic 'his name is ed' montage!!!!!!!!! probably complete with bonus unheard improvised dialogue!!!!!!!!!!!! release the tapes hbo!!!!!!!!!!!!!

just saw someone on tumblr point out that near the end of when harry met sally, when harry's reminiscing over his relationship with sally, all of the flashbacks to earlier scenes are actually from alternate takes?????? and i just think that-

ok hope they get along…

Okay listen. Scarleteen is a pet cause of mine. They do incredible work. Their founder is someone I admire greatly. They provide ao much judgment-free, fact-based education for young people about so many topics. They are the real deal.

Two days until kinktober if anyone else wants to put in requests :3

(and fwiw i think it can sometimes be fine to love a fanon character as long as you are AWARE canon does not actually write the character that way)

and also sometimes the change is “i didn’t like/care abt this character at 1st but the fandom made me love them!” (i see izzy fans say this a lot) & as someone who’s experienced this as well i would urge those ppl to rlly interrogate if fandom’s version of the character actually exists in canon

anyway i recommend doing this sometimes. some of the change btwn takes when i first saw the show vs now are just due to more obvious things like “fandom discourse made me hate this character” but some of it is really interesting to think about

if you run out of reading material during the 20-hour ao3 downtime this friday, i have almost all of my fics on this gdrive: #ofmdfic

reposting with alt text because I think the choice to include homophobia and transphobia in particular here is actually very much worth drawing attention to. nuns emphatically stating that those “do not reflect the qualities of a saint” is a very clear callout of Cardinal Dolan

WOW People are going to die. Insulin and so many other drugs were already too expensive for many people.
