Hey. Hey you. Do you like haladriel? Do you want to read something that would make an HR administrator hyperventilate with some truly questionable dom/sub dynamics? Come right this way before AO3 updates hail the darkness you can befriend 4/4, 21k, E archiveofourown.org/works/59062954

AO3 being down has the unintended consequence of making me work on my own fic Curses.

Speaking of, my Haladriel ones: archiveofourown.org/users/sweetl...

Time to post it again.

Do you know what? It doesn’t matter what causes autism because it is not in fact a bad thing in itself and some of your posts to say X or Y doesn’t cause autism are pretty fucking ableist

Out of curiosity how do you get consent from a drawing. Like maybe you should worry less about whether or not a cartoon has rights and more about whether real life trans and Palestinian people do

I'm not participating in a blackout because the point is moderation and others want me and those like me gone, and I would much rather continue to occupy the space I helped build rather than give everyone a chance to feel how much "better" it is without me. why wither when you can be a thorn.

The 100K fee for H-1B visas (yearly!) is reported as a hit on tech -- but it is a hit on universities. It will make it impossible for us to hire foreign visitors, or foreign scholars into tenure track positions--I think almost 40% of H-1Bs go to universities and university hospitals.

Ok, place I work at that just sent out a communication about us using “empathy, understanding, and civil discourse” between all sides of any debate or when expressing perspectives: how about I have zero of those things for people who actively wish the identities I belong to were imprisoned or dead

Concerning the protest email discourse, if you have ever donated to a Democratic political campaign, your name is already on a list they submit to the government with your personal information, some of which becomes then public. If you're at all politically involved, they already know.

"Don't sign up for a protest" is a thing to think about if you're planning to do illegal shit. Putting your name and email on a mass, planned, permitted demonstration is a zero marginal risk if you are already politically involved, and a de minimis risk if you're not.

Also, have a tiny bit of bravery. Hundreds of thousands of Egyptians put their name publicly as dissidents when they joined "We are all Khaled Saeed," and that was (and is again) a vastly more brutal and repressive regime than we have.

Raises hands to the sky: pussy spanking is finally a tag??? At last?? AT LAST??

I'm very aware of the world burning around us, but I am also holding space to focus on and talk about the stuff I love, because I refuse to let those holding the matches burn that away too.

Because paywall: ““Forwarding names is a practice from the McCarthy era. This represents a breathtaking breach of trust, ethics, and justice.” “It is important to refuse the notion that this is just how things are right now… (cont.)

It shouldn’t really have to be said. And thank you jesus whatever glitch kept me from deactivating is now over. Fandom isn’t worth it to support a platform propped up by fascists

Very sorry everyone who knows me…

Trying to delete twitter (again) because that dumpster fire of fandom and politics is horrific and the goddamn thing won’t let me. I’m apparently not the only one with this problem according to reddit

Hot Girl Summer is over, it's time for Slutty Sauron Season

I feel like…there must be a cheaper and easier way….it’s right on the tip of my tongue….

I’m sure the Frederick Leighton Museum will be delighted to show up as the place Gal loses her virginity to Hal since there’s a large locked art studio on the top floor and it’s perfect for a Like Real People Do Victorian AU rendezvous. Totally delighted 😂 www.rbkc.gov.uk/museums/hist...

I am losing my gd mind right now. It’s so good

"but art should be accessible" it is, you can learn to draw, paint, collage, sculpt, make pixels. right now, starting today. art has never been more accessible monetarily nor physically than it is now in this age. access to artist labor and machine production is not an accessibility issue.

I foresee a Sticks of Power resurgence here and on my tumblr thanks to this…

“When Love Became an Act of Defiance m” - My first Legendarium fic is a Rings of Power frame with a gooey toxic Silmarillion Sauron center. Names and curses and memories within memories within memories like a Russian Doll. A fun challenge to write all based on anerea’s “Magic & Whimsy” (Link below)

I’ve reached a point I can no longer do this on my own. I need help. I would be ever so grateful if this was shared as much as possible I need help with rent, bills and medication. I go without so my child can have. But I’m failing her now too. We need help. Don’t let me lose her gofund.me/5f515e9e

Sometimes I think about how much I love shipping. I just... love Love. I love angst and yearning and the catharsis of consummation, of becoming. I multiship, I ship gay and het ships, I ship canon and non-canon ships. I love all of it. The idea, the experience.

The most perfect, the most wonderful, the most lovely art by @thatsouthernanthem.bsky.social for my fic “I Remember Who I Am When I’m With You”. It’s so detailed! And drawn exactly from the story in such an amazing way 😭❤️

The more things I've made, the less I've been interested in publicly criticizing the things that other people make, because once you make a few things you start to understand what a miracle it is that anything gets made at all

We just got through an election where voters told us they voted on egg prices and thinking Biden was President in 2020 and people are arguing Dems lose because of “Latinx” and let me tell you that’s the most online stupid fucking shit I’ve ever heard in my life.

World Central Kitchen got fired on in Gaza by Israel, had members killed, and went back anyway because people shouldn't have to starve to death. This is an amazing humble bundle.

Loved the printed guide and can’t wait to experience this version 😍

Everyone saying "just use a VPN idk what the big deal is" doesn't get it. We're fighting this so a VPN isn't our one hope for a free internet and then risk them coming for that too like come on

The art! So cool! The prompts! So inspiring!

The full 2025 prompt list.

Missed everyone (some more). Definitely don’t miss the other site though. That “For You” page was too rage-inducing on the political front 🙃 like…how? I mean, I know how and why but damn

and every single time it’s like ok the common denominator of the people that are annoying you is not [identity] or [political advocates] it’s that you are arguing with them on hitler dot com

one thing you really have to be careful of online is not letting your experiences with annoying people online drive your politics for real material issues. the internet is real but also your phone is a portal to a world that doesn’t fucking exist

To me, seeing someone announce art or good news during terrible times isn't like trying to sell balloons at a funeral, it's like getting hugged at that funeral. When maybe you didn't know how much you needed that hug. From anyone. Or everyone. Folks need all the soul fuel they can get.

I debated writing this. It can feel tempting, upon encountering yet another instance of this administration’s racism, to let it be. How many ways can you say the same thing over and over again? And yet we have to write it down, if for nothing else, so those who come after us know we were against it.
