Controversial Take: 🔥

@11thstreetvigilante @wenellyb @heresathreebee

If White fictional characters can have dragons (Game Of Thrones) as protection and interracial relationships that include White people aren't entirely discouraged (Bridgerton), then I should be able to write stories where Black women have mythical creatures and are seen as desirable/pretty/respected without feeling guilty.

Also, I want to see more: 📓

I want to see a Black woman braid her hair while in fantasy/historical settings.

More Pharoahs or other POC leaders, less European monarchs.

Black princesses and queens.

Dragons flying in Africa or anywhere other than European factions, I don't care.

Black mermaids

European monarchs bowing to Moors, Africans or other POC.

Europeans believing that Black women are beautiful without utilizing stereotypes!

Palaces, not tents or huts.

Black women on horseback.

Black people and archery

Extravagance for Black people.

Disabled characters (No Stupidly Fictional Cures!)

Thoughts?! Feel free to add more suggestions. As a warning, hate will be blocked! 🤔

I think I’ll be keeping a tally of all the animals I’ve seen this summer

Three ducks.

One horse

One moth

One small, tailless rodent

One raccoon

I SAW TWO BABY DUCKS AT THE PARK!!!! Them and their mother just swam up to me and begged for food (there was a sign that said not to feed the wildlife so I didn’t, but it was awesome anyway.) I think I should name them… c’mon, of course I gonna name them! I name OCs everyday, it’s like an instinct! I think I’ll name the two young ones Misha and Sergei (don’t ask) and the older one “The Purple one or, Dormammu.” (Put me in jail now.)

I mean, it’s not in nature (and its kinda sad) but a horse was seen in the back of a transport trailer (ha, passive voice.) I think I’ll name it… Sparky.

A moth decided to dive bomb me last night. It scared the ever living crap out of me and I nearly uprooted everything and moved to Antarctica. I think I’ll name it Godzilla. (Yes, I know it’s a missed opportunity, but Mothra’s a good guy, this moth was evil.)

I saw a baby bunny today. It was like right outside our door, right next to us. So close that if we had been outside, we would’ve been able to touch it. It was without its mother… I’m going to name it Bambi.

I have no idea what it was. Some tiny rodent without a tail. No reference for this one, but I think I’ll name it Terrance (no, not because that’s what ‘reference’ auto corrected to)

Raccoon! Raccoon! Me and my brother ran for our lives while our dad tried to get a closer look. We thought we’d never see him again. I’ll name it Jason. (No, it didn’t have a machete… that we could see.)

(To be updated on an “oh crap, I forgot” basis every time I see a new animal)

(If you want to, try and guess the references I make with each name :)

Happy tdov to fat trans people. 🏳️‍⚧️ Biggest thing that helped me as a trans kid was seeing older fat trans people. There were a lot of really irritating "advice" posts going around early in my time on the internet with a lot of misinformation in them, but one that I constantly saw (in addition to people claiming you should wear your pants rediculously low or only wear button ups) were posts saying you had to lose weight to transition. Can confidently confirm that is completely untrue. 👍

#seal.txt #tdov #that 'sky and mike' image of the two old trans dudes hugging was one that I had saved to my phone as a trans teen #and i would look at it sometimes and just wonder how they had made it #idk its just nice knowing we live that long and its not a requirement to be skinnyin order to be respected and loved and get old #some of the old 'advice' posts i saw were really completely bizarre and a lot of them stick with me to this day in insecurities #this would have been 2016 ish tumblr so i know not that long ago but i would have been around 13 for reference #weird that i remember so many of the things i read back then. i could probably fill a post with things i was misinformed on due to Tumblr #specifically tumblrs run by people that i didnt really have the knowledge or awareness to understand probably didnt have my best interests #like 'trans rights ' blogs i would follow and not notice until much later were quite the opposite #this is the consequence of viewing social media before i knew all the secret codewords and my brain was much less developed than it is now

As a nerd, there are countless options for the Squirtle line! Bowser, Kamina, any of the TMNT, hell, Strider if I wanna piss people off.

But as a *dad?*

Shelldon is the only answer.

do you ever see fanart so tasty that you are then obligated to join the fandom and spend all of your waking hours learning the lore behind the characters, or is that not a universal experience?

#this is how i got into batman #i mean im more into the batboys #im in it for the robins #does it count if wolfy's jesus fanart made me want to read the bible from an objective pov #technically thats a fandom #i think my entire southern baptist extended family would collectively die if i referred to them as a fandom #anyways #pretty art pavolovs me into consuming new media #batboys #batfam #batman #dc robin #dcu #coldflash #fanart #drarry #mattimir #superbat #hannigram #jonmartin #johnlock #samifer #jaydick #damijon #timkon #timbern #im totally forgetting a bunch of my fav ships bc my brain is tiny and forgets things #so please add your own blorbos #thanks for coming to my ted talk #but why tf are you still reading the tags???

ok but i find it interesting how shadow's appearance was partially inspired by kabuki theatre

like ooo that makes sense. that makes a lot of sense actually

funny thing is it kinda fits perfectly with shadow's first va using a slight mid-atlantic accent. i thought the accent was a nod to him being from the 50s when it was still in use, but the fact it was almost exclusively utilized in theatrical and cinematic settings kinda makes me wonder if it was an intentional reference to the theatrical aspect of shadow's design as well? his dramatic demeanor sickens me

I actually love glass onion being set deep in covid times but where's the post that was like . Glass Onion should have ended with benoit blanc getting home and testing positive for covid . I really think that would've tied the whole thing together

#glass onion #fr coulda been a post credits scene! u don't want to disrupt the power of the final scene tho i guess #do u think the stuff ethan hawke shot in their mouths was a spurious miles bron vaccine or just like. ivermectin #anyway . I have seen this post thsi is not an original idea. where is it. #please can more media reference covid it's gonna be TOO ! WEIRD! if our popular culture just flat out ignores this major thing #that disrupted THEE entire world for so long. #saw someone be like 'covid happened two years ago why are people still talking about it' uh ! #anyway . glass onion handshake emoji the borat sequel . for having covid in it #they fully all got covid that weekend. this is my belief

“the gore and grit and violence and manliness and faggotiness of Black Sails / Hannibal / Interview with the Vampire would make the childish q-slur-tagging Steven Universe pansies who watch Our Flag Means Death scream and cry and shit their pants”

you are all watching Television Show.

#like. I hear what you’re saying. but it’s Television Show #(by which I want to refer to the material circumstances surrounding the production of any major media undertaking #and not really the medium itself) #f slur /

read a fic recently that had an interaction like

sasha: tim get like one social media PLEASE I am BEGGING

tim: I have linkedin?

and I cannot describe the Joy I felt reading that. they get it.

#ramblings with major #the magnus archives #tma #i love tim but he is so offline to me #if he does social media its very lightly #i mean his canon sense of humor is pop culture references like movie quotes and stuff. not memes. #tim's idea of a meme is an image with impact text and an image with impact text Only #danny was the fun online one finding all the weird niche communities and hobbies and whatnot #tim is the boring one #im telling y'all hes the 'straight man' of the archives
