#(Joking Statement)

[maidenofcrows]

Too many jokes about Kaz becoming Wylan’s father figure. Not enough jokes about Wylan and Jesper adopting Kaz. Not in a child-parent way, but more of a feral cat way.

#i will not be going into the nuances of whether it’s right or wrong to make the first joke listed #if someone interprets the statement in a way they find offensive that’s more a reflection on the reader’s character than mine #but anyway #six of crows #kaz brekker #jesper fahey #wylan van eck #wylan hendriks

You guys remember when Dan Olson's "The Line Goes Up" video dropped and was so damning and incriminating that, overnight, hundreds of the most beloved content creators and Youtubers quietly dropped any and all mention/support of crypto in their videos?

#remember when jerma was sponsored by coinbase #remember when buzzfeed unsolved ryan and shane would make to the moooooon jokes #this isn't me making broad statements about these people that i don't know and often still enjoy and respect #i'm just watching the vid essay again rn and remembered #oh yeah being into crypto was extremely cool and normal for youtubers #until this single bombshell of a vid essay dropped and utterly embarrassed all of them. #personal #delete later

TW: suicide

Statements "James Somerton doesn't deserve to die and I hope he's okay.", "Harry, Kat, Todd or Jessie (?!) bear no blame for James' self-harm and calling them murderers is abhorrent." and "Threatening or committing suicide is often a DARVO manipulation/revenge tactic." are allowed to all be true at the same time and not mutually exclusive.

#james somerton #tw: suicide #cw: suicide #Also “Joking about a man's potential suicide is ghoulish” statement REALLY goes without saying #HBomberguy #producer Kat #Todd in the Shadows #WHY is Jessie Earl - the only living person James gave direct apology to - blamed at all? transphobes are riding this bandwagon aren't they

the sonic twitter takeovers are canon when they say something i like and not canon when they say something i dont like hope this helps

#ok jokes aside i refuse to accept the sonic twitter takeovers as 100 percent undeniably canon #nobody can convince me that i should take them seriously #before anyone says ''well sega said everything is canon'' no they didnt. that was a silly joke tweet not an actual serious statement #and even if it was serious you still shouldnt take it as ''every piece of sonic media exists in the same timeline'' #because thats just not possible #HOWEVER the twitter takeovers do have some fun/cute character interactions #and the answers i do like i like to take and keep as headcanons #like shadow liking coffee beans and kittens and volunteering at soup kitchens . very good #shadow and amy being taylor swift fans ? into the shredder. not canon #they would have better taste in music + that sort of music just doesnt fit shadow at all #+ the private jet thing is literally sonic villain behavior

In 2011, I started writing a thing, on a whim. In 2013, I finished it. A lot of people seemed to love it? Then over the next decade, I put a lot of work into expanding and editing it, with plans for a complete physical book release that didn't happen. Well, here it is again. As an internet novel. A finished novel, this time.

I will start posting the story on May 21st, 2024. May 22nd will be a day of rest. And then, from May 23rd until October 21st, every day will see a new chapter-- a new log. ("F-Five months?? How long is this novel?" Oh yeah, good point. That won't actually get us to the end. There may be another eight, ten days of chapters afterwards. It is important, however, to emphasize the May 21 - October 21 model.)

I will make sure to put the bulk of the contents under "Read More" breaks, so each log won't clutter your browsing experience.

The logs will have art in them. Not as much as in the original draft, but there will still be some. As of May 1st, I expect art by Rappu, RealaChao, Wiratomkinder, and Vis.

I plan on supplementing the logs with the occasional post talking about the making and intention of the story. I dunno, it's gonna be a five-month distribution period, I'm gonna get antsy during that and am gonna want to ramble. That'll be separate content, though.

And when the story is fully and completely posted on tumblr, I will release the full novel on my Website, where I like to keep the rest of my creations. Both the tumblr novel and the Website novel will be free reading, forever. I reserve the right to try again at a paid physical edition afterwards.

So! That's it. Rapture is coming. OH GOD THE RAPTURE IS BURNING is coming.

Trigger Warnings: Sex, Gods, and Rock & Roll. (violence. some swear words. teenage angst, cringe. death. insects. surrealism. symbolism. unpredictability of what will be explained and what won't. sexual acts with dubious consent-- you will be able to skip that part. religious iconography. and so much prog rock.)

Get ready for it.

#writing #tumblr novel #the fear mythos #you do not have to know anything about the fear mythos to read #books #i have worked on this for 13 years. you would be surprised at just how much work went into it. #horror #anti-horror #comedy #anti-comedy #'what the hell does that mean. anti-horror. anti-comedy.' rapture is sprawling and does not like to stay in one place. #rapture is like. honestly just my attempt at art. at making statements about genre and boundary and limit. #maybe i should say 'trigger warning: art' as a joke. but that sounds even more pretentious than anything else. #longpost #there... will be longposts. this longpost is nothing in comparison to what is to come.

it's just ... so interesting to me that of ALL people, taylor swift's team is choosing to go with the "it's just a joke and he just likes eliciting reactions" angle given how taylor and her team know exactly how damaging something like that can be

#i mean she was all but bullied and chased out of the spotlight at one point and yeah she made it back but #she has made some pretty damning statements about how godawful she was doing at the time #so it's ......... a very weird angle theyre choosing to take here given her history specifically with stuff like this #it's not fun to be the butt of any joke and she knows that #and this isnt even beginning to touch on Who he's using as the butt of his jokes that's a whole separate very other issue #ts discourse #😐 #taylor swift

irt that post, gale would not be better than astarion at eating out. that is insane.

gale has never eaten pussy in his life he knows HOW to bc he READ about it but he and mystra were doing some 5D cats cradle weave shit with their junk, was never a MOMENT where he just knelt down for a normal fucking meal.

astarion gives fantastic head he just will not do it unless prompted. don't expect him to get anything out of it lmao

#statement ; #🚨 THIS IS A JOKE THIS IS A JOKE 🚨 #YOU CAN IMAGINE WHATEVER U WANT THEY'RE NOT REAL #i just think it's funny that the guy who Had To Be Good At Sex is being headcanoned as. bad. #bg3

I have real questions about what is wrong with yall and if you have any cognitive reasoning skills, or any desire whatsoever to send messages to your friends instead of my inbox

#what was it about ''glasses and an undercut'' made you want to jump to such a wild ass statement #sergle.txt #the vitriol on my ''you know gay ppl with this exact style'' post is CRAZY that post got foul with absolutely no prompting #like what is the jump exactly.. the initial joke is that this haircut + buttonup and glasses frames are the first options reached for #by the Newly Transed and also. butch lesbians who are 20. and also butch lesbians who are 60 #and also twinks #so you're getting the same look from 20 different people who aren't even in the same spaces together #that's the joke. i'm explaining the joke. the joke ISN'T "i knew someone awful who had this style so everyone is awful'' can we be serious

I loved the part in the Magnus Archives where Jane Prentiss said "it's wormin' time," and wormed all over the place

#If u can't tell i am listening to the Magnus Archives #Am i late to the party? #yes probably #do I care #no #I love it sm #just finished Burned Out tho but I am having a good time #heheheheh stanky little rat man in his little rat archive with his little rat statements and little rat tape recorder #the magnus archives #martin blackwood #tma #jonathan sims #jane prentiss #this joke has probably been made before #but we're here anyway

'You've got to be kitten me' - kunigami when he saw reo being pathetic Blue Lock ⚽︎ EP19:"Dancing Boy"

#blue lock #mikage reo #kungami rensuke #bluelockedit #bluelocksource #dailyanime #animeedit #fysportsanime #* #*gifs #bllk #a/m #okay. ima be reeeal honest. #i wasn't sure who in this situation would be making that statement #bc...i mean like cats can't talk so like they wouldn't be making the joke. that would be the human's job. #but like this a 'human makes cat joke as a human' or 'human makes cat joke as a cat' situation ???? #i really don't know #but i went with kunigami bc reo was kinda head empty at that point #feb23

it never slips my mind that kaycee died young but it took me a bit to register that her manner of death is one of the most unimaginably painful ones to go through. oh well if homegirl was lucky she passed out from the smoke before she could feel her skin peel off 😁🤞

#i know her death is prooobably an assassination? given what she knew and her being the only casualty #even though risking burning down your whole building seems excessive.. #but i like the thought it was purely tragic cosmic joke on her HAH #like god has it out for her. girl just die #'the exact circumstances of her death are unknown'' #i dont know if that statement is regarding what killed her specifically or what started the fire or both #i know theres something about faulty wiring but we know gamefuna would just lie lol #do you think EMTs got there before she was taken by complications? or was she olone when the light left her eyes. #did the defibrillator fail? #kaycee hobbes

im rewatching starstruck odyssey and this narration really stuck out to me…… big comedy season but the themes of isolation vs. connection are sooooo special and beautiful <3

#i!! love!!!! dimension 20!!!!! #i love brennans imagery. i love his worldbuilding #i love when he says something funny and the whole table laughs and then he makes the exact same joke to make them laugh again. #it’s so heartwarming ☹️☹️ #ttrpgs are literally just stories the players write together. not a profound statement but its so sweet & human when u really think about i #i also love the sci-fi element of stody. everyone watch it neowwww ‼️‼️ #starstruck odyssey #dimension 20 #d20 #ok plus the fact that the original comic was made by his mom ☹️☹️☹️. #and the music. sooo fucking good

u know autism put that dog in u when u can't stop biting your girlfriends

#this was supposed to be the punchline of a different joke #but I think the statement on its own is too pure to be left as a middle statement for a different bit

If anything the "Stalin was bad" post once again proves that tankies are sheep* .They like to gather in big mobs, the members of which are only barely capable of independent thought and have the average knowledge and maturity levels of a particularly poorly educated 15yo.

The leaders occasionally put out something vaguely resembling an original thought for their followers to parrot back.**To quote a certain famous (if apocryphal) letter "the devil shits and your army eats it"

* I would like to apologize to sheep here. Good USEFUL animals, unlike tankies.

** also my apologies to parrots, who are both much smarter and more independent.

#tankies #i've gotten 20+ *add me please* ~jokes ~ in my notes and all of them seem to think they're original lmao #but very interesting they all got upset about a post that doesn't mention any of them by name and immediately ganged up on me #“the genocidal dictator was bad oh no what a controversial statement must crawl out to defend him* #offcourse 60% will backpedal and say whatever USSR did wrong wasn't True Communism #but somehow i don't trust them to fix those things if they get another go🙄 #🧲

Maybe I'm being sensitive but this whole scene just frustrates and annoys me because like

comparing Steph and Tim so callously with comments that he's "better" and a "quick learner" after her death

having Cass lowkey victim blame Steph for her own death "But she chose--" and "She messed up." plus trying to convince Tim that it's not Steph's fault

the "Maybe it's time I gave you a lesson" like I don't really have a good reason for this one it might just be a personal thing but the tone of that whole sentence makes me feel frustrated and talked down to

#mypost #dc thoughts #cassandra cain #tim drake #stephanie brown #batgirl #robin #spoiler #making use of characters to prop up the narrative #i don't know enough about cass' character and maybe you can say it's in character for her to do it i don't know #but like it's not the point though they didnt really explore her feelings for it as much as using it to make a statement #that tim is sooo much better and smarter than steph and that maybe she died because of herself like UGH #at least that's how it feels like to me #this is a joke but maybe this is tim's karma for victim blaming jason lol getting to hear all the arguments from the other side #ummm do i need to tag this with anti? #i'm not really hating on any of the characters here it's just the narrative that's annoying me and this very much reads as
