Welcome to Australia...

Where an already endangered species is on the brink of functional extinction...

Oh, and 500 million animals unique to this country have already lost their lives, upon homes that have been destoryed and lives lost of people as well...

I mean... we're only living in a literal inferno...

415 fires. Fuck are we dying...

Oh yeah and people are just fleeing to the damn ocean, you know?

Do you want to know what Hell on Earth looks like..?

Because there it is in all it's unfiltered, firey rage...

There it is... my home from space...

This is only the beginning. Our country has not only entered a new decade, it seems a new dawning era as well, because this flaming apocalypse doesn't show any sign of stopping any time soon.

And you know what saddens me? I've never seen Australian tragedies trending here on this website. I mean it's been going on for months and only now does it seem to really be getting recognized, even if it is only at #9.

And I'm going to be honest with you here - the internet, and media in general is so American centric, this website being no exception. You'd think that an entire continent being on fire for several months with devastating consequences would have more recognition, but no, it really doesn't. The most notes I've ever seen on a post about the Australian fires is at least a few thousand, and that's about it.

So just... please. If you can, with this post or any other post in regards to the fires going on down here, reblog. Because the only thing that should be spreading like wildfire, is a post about a burning country...

So when people tell you to "break a leg" before a show, they do not mean that literally.

I knew that, but my foot did not. Now he is in time out for at least 4 weeks, so fun times

Reblog if you think it’s okay to platonically say “I Love You” to your friends

[acaylan]

So I just realized that when I was around 14 there was a time I used to disassociate at least once a week. And I didn't realize that that is what was happening, I always thought I was just daydreaming or something, but sometimes I was out of I for two hours after I woke up and this realization shocked me so much I had a panic attack

Life sucks y'all

Asexual Awareness Week is here!! Time to celebrate each and every one of you wonderful aces <3 Thank you for being you! Enjoy!!

how do you write emotions and the gradual progression from friends to lovers and then write tender but hot ~*love*~ scenes asking for an emotionally-constipated friend…

[acaylan]

“i am a monument to all your sins” is such a fucking raw line for a villain it’s amazing that it came from halo, a modernish video game, and not some classical text or mythos

[acaylan]

oh good lord (x)

Noticed something while re-reading Good Omens: the description of Crowley’s flat mentions beds, plural, but bedroom, singular. Ended up with a funny mental image I wanted to share.

Crowley has been waiting for the right time to say “you can stay at my place, if you like“ for longer than he lets on :P

So you're telling me Aziraphale abd Crowley are literally two parts of the same soul, literally making them soulmates.

Alright my life is complete.

William the Antichrist, a lovely little book included in the Ineffable Edition of the Illustrated Good Omens, contains the Neil Gaiman original short text from which then he and Terry Pratchett cooked up the brilliance we know today. It covers the meeting of the three demons and the baby swap.

Fun facts from Neil’s preface :) :

Crowley was original known as Crawleigh, inspired by nearby town: The unfortunate demon, whom I called Crawleigh, because Crawley was a nearby town with an unfortunate name, would have to sort it all out as best he could.

About the writing, Crowley and Aziraphale: Terry took the 5,000 words, and rewrote them, calling me to tell me what he was doing and what he was planning to do. The biggest thing he was going to do, he told me, was split the hapless demon into two characters - a would-be-cool demon in dark glasses (which was, I think, a Terry’s way of making fun of me, a never-actually-cool journalist in dark glasses) who had renamed himself Crowley, and a rare-book dealer and angel called Aziraphale, who would embody all the English awkwardness that either of us could concieve. 

Adam was named William all the way through the writing and only after the estate of Just William’s book didn’t reply, they shuffled things around: William the Antichrist XXX being finished, we reached out to the Richmal Crompton estate to see if they’d countenance the book being published with their character. They didn’t reply, and we were already talking about some of the fun things we could do to the characters if we weren’t stuck with William Brown’s world - Adam’s second in command could be female, for a start - so our second draft of the book formerly known as William the Antichrist, which was mostly an attempt to make it look like we knew what we were doing all along, and not just filing off the serial numbers and doing a Find and Replace to change William to Adam (although we did that, too, resulting in Gollancz’s copy editor asking who composer Vaughan Adams was).

Fun facts from the story :) :

Crawleigh is truly an in incompetent demon - when the other two recount all their evil deeds, he says: “Well.. I really meant to get around to that sort of stuff. I mean I really meant to. But. I’ve been so busy recently, and I just didn’t, um, you know how it is…” He trailed off.

He drives not a Bentley, but a Citroen 2CV. (no colour specified, but this is what the type looks like: :))

He’s really, really bad at demoning (remember that at this point he’s still both Crowley and Aziraphale): It wasn’t he didn’t want to ruin the lives and souls of strangers; it was just that after he’d given them nice cups of tea and homemade cakes, and listened to their problems and helped them balance their cheque books, and got their kittens down from trees, there simply wasn’t the time.

Satan at one point of time hurt him! 

WE ARE RELYING ON YOU, it said. DO NOT FAIL US, CRAWLEIGH.

“No, Lord.“

NO… WHAT DID WE DO TO YOU AFTER THE ATLANTIS DEBACLE? REMIND US.

“Half an aeon, O Master of the Nine Hells, partially dismembered, suspended in the flaming cesspits of Abbadon. There were internal stoats in there somewhere as well. And after that I was Earthbound until further notice.“
