since the cowboy and the samurai were both dying out in the 1800s i want an action adventure historically wildly inaccurate comic about the last cowboy and the last samurai teaming up BUT one of them is gay and the other doesn’t understand what being gay is and there are multiple comedic mishaps resulting from this

I know "60s housewives who invented slash fanfiction" has taken on a life of its own as a phrase, but Kirk/Spock didn't really exist until the 70s and THOSE WOMEN HAD JOBS. They were teachers and librarians and bookkeepers and scientists and they damn well spent their own money going to conventions, printing zines, buying fanart and making fandom happen. Put some respect on their names.

少し早めの連休突入。叔父の葬儀のため、千葉県に向かっています。東北道・佐野SAで休憩中。予想以上に暑い。

お昼は佐野SAレストランで佐野ラーメンとミニ炒飯のセット。久しぶりの佐野ラーメン。美味かった。

2024年35杯目。

No one is discrediting the student protests. I myself am a student who is partaking in largely student-coordinated protests, drives, campaigns… but I also understand that we are largely missing the point if coverage of these protests overshadows what they are actually protesting for—the atrocities committed on Palestinians every single day. As the western buzz around this genocide gets more and more coverage, the coverage of the genocide itself sharply declines. It’s true and I see it every single day. Things are not being reported with the precision and diligence with which they should be.

the Fatal Embrace enamel pins are now up at greerstothers.shop

The Lovers of Valdaro - a couple who has been locked in their final embrace for over 5,000 years

Rat king - a group of rats whose tails have become tangled and knotted, binding them together

Triassic cuddle - a porto-mammal and amphibian, found huddled in a burrow. the Thrinaxodon was hibernating, while the Broomistega was injured, and fleeing rising flood waters

"Don't use Libby because it costs libraries too much, pirate instead" is such a weird, anti-patron, anti-author take that somehow manages to also be anti-library, in my professional librarian-ass opinion.

It's well documented that pirating books negatively affects authors directly* in a way that pirating movies or TV shows doesn't affect actors or writers, so I will likely always be anti-book piracy unless there's absolutely, positively no other option (i.e. the book simply doesn't exist outside of online archives at all, or in a particular language).

Also, yeah, Libby and Hoopla licenses are really expensive, but libraries buy them SO THAT PATRONS CAN USE THEM. If you're gonna be pissed at anybody about this shitty state of affairs, be pissed at publishing companies and continue to use Libby or Hoopla at your library so we can continue to justify having it to our funding bodies.

One of the best ways to support your library having services you like is to USE THOSE SERVICES. Yes, even if they are expensive.

there is only one ansem

[doublemooncrab]

a more complicated, explicitly monstery Heartless…y form for post KH3 au Ansem, because if Sora gets Rage/Anti Form, then surely someone whose entire shtick is being an incredibly powerful darkness based entity should have something similar if not more out there.

[doublemooncrab]

a new post KH3 outfit for Ansem for a future fic, whenever i write that. heavy influence from the world of chaos “”“"outfit”“”“ made more suitable for adventuring.
