Trying to get back into the groove with some sketches from this amazing fic archiveofourown.org/works/722375...

one thing i can’t get enough of chapter 3 haladriel x dirty dancing | E | 9.9k | 3/4 archiveofourown.org/works/471253...

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

If women submitting to men was a natural way of being, they would not have needed laws, religion & violence to get them to do it.

When I saw the AO3 notification that lizzah had posted this….

Happy weekend nonsense, from me to you! 😘 www.redbubble.com/i/sticker/N%...

Incredible!!!!

Tell me your pet’s name with a gif One cat. Second cat 💙

gently: it's fine if you don't love explicit sex scenes in fiction but it would be cool if you could talk about it without sounding indistinguishable from moms for liberty

my eternal struggle

one of the great joys of fandom in the batshit nightmare times were living in is that it’s a fundamentally communal art form. it’s making stuff purely for your own creative fulfillment and to make your ten favorite weirdos happy, and I think that’s beautiful. it’s such a necessary escape these days

There is something so fundamentally telling with people who think that “reading a book” and “knowing what the plot is” is the same experience.

In coastal au, they can only do this on a couch when they’re on a very late honeymoon. Also lazy ass coloring I’m TIRED

why did this make me laugh

you know, if you are so desperate to give constructive criticism to fanfic writers that you insist on leaving it in AO3 comments, there’s always authors looking for a good beta reader! If nobody’s asking you to be *their* beta reader perhaps take that as feedback on the quality of your concrit.

happy 48th birthday to our ethereal elven princess liv tyler; thank you for bringing arwen to life in such a meaningful way, and for inspiring so many girls like me to love and cherish the fantasy genre growing up alongside miranda otto and cate blanchett ♡

I gotta say I find a lot of AI discourse around higher ed very confusing. "if ChatGPT can write your essays is college even worth it?" did people think math teachers were assigning problem sets because *they* couldn't figure out the answers?

I am here for this.

kind of funny that americans think that once you become mayor, you can just enact sharia law. like zero understanding of the legislative process. just raise your hand and say "ok it's sharia time now"

Not normally into this dynamic but for Myrs, woof! Bark bark!! I was late to work because of this fic!! 🥵

This is why traditional political power hoarders hate RCV — it encourages coalitions, doesn’t hate voters, and makes divide and conquer & demonization less effective/attractive. Scorched earth is actually a terrible planet to live on.

If you think it can’t happen here, remember that it already did. In 1942 soldiers came with rifles to our home and ordered us out. They put us in internment camps. Most of us were citizens.

Love all of this (and dying at the replies, 😆)

Could be me in season 3. (No spoilers intended or wanted, I’m avoiding all speculation at this time, lol). But just saying… the fanfic may get even more delulu and I’m here for that.

There was a time not so long ago when I’d have been right in there on fandom Tumblr discourse, saying things like “you know how it’s annoying when people make weird generalisations about *your* ship based on like four people they hate? Well,” but now: growth 😌

I kid you not, my work knows that I do drawing on the side and someone in the office told me AI could save me time and my response was "but I like drawing" and it broke them. They didn't know how to answer, they just couldn't comprehend that people make art because they like making art.

Flailing with joy and excitement for a treat from lizzah!!!!

bedtime

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

The gifts just keep on coming!!! Fire art for a fire story. I am 🥵 🥵 🥵

As promised by popular demand in a Twitter poll, I started the next chapter on my Haladriel Mobster A/b/o prequel fic to “An Intoxicating Presence.” Snippet from “A Faithful Enemy,”https://archiveofourown.org/works/59403526/chapters/151493635

IF IT AIN’T FDIC INSURED, DON’T MAKE IT YOUR PRIMARY BANK THE FDIC EXISTS TO PROTECT CUSTOMERS FROM BANKS GOING UNDER. PRIOR TO THE FDIC, IF A BANK WENT UNDER, YOUR MONEY WENT WITH IT.

canon:

I’ve seen this excuse a lot for using AI and I do not see how it’s better than using a sounding board in the form of another person. You all have access to talking to other humans at the touch of a fingerprint? Why are you leaning on the plagiarism machine? Go talk to your friends.

“Bluesky boring” Bluesky is a sheet of paper… put something on it

"Our product creates such little value that it is simply not viable in the marketplace, not even as a niche product. Therefore, we must be allowed to unilaterally extract value from the work of others and convert that value into our profits."

The grin on my face when I saw this update!!!!

From Rey of Jakku to Galadriel of the Noldors, I wish people stopped interpreting female characters who clearly, in canon, flirt with darkness, as some virginal, pure, angelic types

*taps mic* fandom is supposed to be fun. if you’re not having fun, step back, return when it feels right. fandom is not supposed to be a secondary grind. let fandom be your break from the horrors of real life. *steps off soapbox and crawls back into my corner*

As a person who is indifferent to all the sportballs— go read this now!! Written passionately, it’s a grade A romp!

Cheering on all of my friends who are struggling with writing/art right now that you'll find that spark again soon, and your work will come together 💜

Bc more people need to be loud: As a cis woman, I want to make it clear that this is a pro-trans account, and I will always advocate and express opinions in line with that. It’s HORRIFYING how marginalized people are being scapegoated, and their fight should be all of ours.
