Ironwood x Glynda

Not my favorite Ironwood ship or Glynda ship, but it's not bad!

one of the reasons i object to the random assignation of words like "mythology" and "folklore" to some medieval literature (and by random i mean interchangeably and with no real consideration of what they mean) is that when you look at what gets called mythology and what gets acknowledged as literature, it's very othering, it's very noticeable that english and french material generally gets to be literature* and lit in celtic languages is folklore, and it often obscures the actual historical context of that material. in particular it obscures the literate, learned institutions that produced that literature whether courtly or ecclesiastical in favour of attributing it to some nebulous voice of the people that ignores the complex web of influences and powers that shaped those stories

if chaucer isn't folklore then a fourteenth century irish text isn't either. if shakespeare isn't folklore then a sixteenth century irish text isn't either. etc etc. the anonymity of the author does not make it any less a self consciously literary production within a learned environment with influences from classical and contemporary literature written to support political aims or to respond to contemporary events

folklore exists, and is not these texts (it does a disservice to folklore and folklorists to assume you can approach them in the same way methodologically tbh!). mythology exists, and is a difficult-to-discern thread that runs through some of these texts (i find the dindsenchas elements particularly convincing as mythological, but otherwise it's hard to identify what's what, particularly when authors are making classical allusions all the time). but what the majority of these texts are, at face value, is literature. the way that they get othered and made out to be somehow more primitive and magical just bc they're in celtic languages and (usually) anonymous really pisses me off

*arthurian material is the exception but this usually relies on some vague notion of celtic origins so it's actually the same phenomenon wearing a different hat

#oh yeah this is definitely discourse sorry #reblogs OFF replies ready to be shot on sight #there are uses of terms like myth that are more grounded and sound than these uses #they're not the ones i'm talking about #i'm talking about the arbitrary description of any and all irish literature as 'celtic mythology' and/or folklore #and like. not to vagueblog ao3 but. also ao3's garbage tag wrangling contributes to this #i will continue to stubbornly tag my shit as medieval Irish lit #it is not ancient religion and lore. it's a fucking fifteenth century text my dude

Hi Kasper!!! Are you writing for Time Begins? If so, may I ask for a teeny tiny sneak peek? 😳🫣

If not/also, it is clear you love the Giants most and I don't blame you but what are your favorite non-Giants ships, or Giant/non-Giant ships? And what do you love about them?

Hope these are interesting enough!

Oh bless you I love to share unedited snippets of fic that will ultimately go through an absolute chainsaw massacre of rewrites...under the cut below

But first, non-Giants ships!!! I have many. This is going to reveal an INTENSE Blue Jays bias. I've been banging the drum for more Bo Bichette/Vladimir Guerrero Jr for like. years. I love them so much they're so tender and they look so good in each other's arms. I'm also powerfully crazed by the fact that Lourdes Gurriel Jr wanted to dom Bo Bichette so bad. Why was he so up in Bo's grill. Why do people see Bo Bichette and all their blood goes to their dick. Also why is no one kissing George Springer??? I think Vladdy should kiss him. I mean I think the whole team should all kiss him but Vladdy specifically should kiss him while they eat their stupid wonderbread sandwiches. Also though I am not a scholar of the old men on that team, every time they cross my dash they're doing something bananas gay. Love it. Blue Jays scholars please educate me on your old men! Basically whatever gay juice they seem to be spiking their gatorade with up there in Canada: it's good

I also very fond of Gunnar Henderson/Adley Rutschman of the Baltimore Orioles....chosen one 4 chosen one, it's SO good. Also they're huge and hot and Baltimore is such an interesting town. what more do you need. let them go on dates doing weird shit and eating ice cream!!! Also very fond of Chris Davis/Adam Jones for insane reasons, and Manny Machado/Jonathan Schoop for normal reasons.

My one Yankees mutual has found better things to do than spend her life on Tumblr (I miss you Rhi 😭😭) so I am sadly not as keyed into whatever those gay fucks are up to as I was but I have a special place in my heart for Kyle Higashioka and Gerrit Cole bc their arranged marriage is insane. Also, we are always on team Hapa. Also need someone to tell me if Aaron Judge and Anthony Rizzo are anything bc the pregame meal commercial is lodged in my brain like a disease you get from drinking river water, but since I have zero remaining Yankees mutuals, I have no idea what's up.

AND FINALLY, ENDING HERE SINCE THIS IS GETTING LONG, I am very fond of my friends across the bay the Oakland Athletics!! I saw an insane headline yesterday about the A's playing at Oracle while their stadium is being built in Las Vegas. This was, to be clear, the most deranged thing I have ever read and it will never happen because Larry Baer would kill David Kaval and John Fischer in real life -- HOWEVER, the idea of the Baby O's interacting with the baby Giants because they would share a stadium and presumably clubhouse made me howl like a dog. First of all, Tony Kemp and Mike Yastrzemski would be great co-parents (they're in love, they're in love, and they DON'T care who knows it) and I think their combined power could right the sinking ships of both teams. second of all, I need to see what happens when you mix traumatized Oakland rookies with Giants rookies who are being forced to play Kaplerball. I think it would literally be catastrophically horny. the teams would invent several new mental illnesses. the amount of doubleheaders would have a horrible effect on San Francisco's water supply. I honestly think we'd get a like California Hockey situation, where you come to the Bay Area and get your ass kicked by both teams, who meanwhile lose every single away game they play and are at the bottom of their respective leagues. It would be so good and so bad and I don't think the teams OR the fanbases would ever recover. The whole thing is very we found love in a hopeless place. What would you do, if you were Casey Schmidt, and you met Lawrence Butler? You would be so horny, and so uncool about it.

Anyway thank you for asking!!! and sorry to m pindergarten specifically and only, if she read that last paragraph

Excerpt of my very neglected Time Begins fic:

Blake almost bails on Casey to hang out with Sean but when he floats the idea past Sean as they all dress to leave, Sean stares at him in disbelief. “Don’t be an idiot,” he says.

“Why? You’re my friend.” Blake doesn’t get the look on Sean’s face. He just wants Sean to feel better.

“So is Casey,” says Sean. “Stop making him feel bad.”

“You feel bad now,” protests Blake.

Sean stands up. He towers over Blake while Blake is sitting with one of his shoes half on. Sean puts both hands on Blake’s shoulders and bends down. “Blake,” he says very quietly. “It is Pride weekend. Casey is asking you to get a beer with him on Pride weekend.”

“Oh,” says Blake. He blinks. “Oh, okay. I thought Pride weekend was a couple weeks ago but I guess that explains all the lesbians I saw this morning when I walked to the grocery store. Like, Dyke March, because it’s Saturday, right? So he wants to get a beer with me on Pride weekend, which is meaningful. I guess.”

Sean presses his forehead against Blake’s. “Don’t squash his joy,” he says. “Not today. Not this weekend.”

He cups the back of Blake’s neck. “Or I’ll tell Craw you made Casey cry,” he says sweetly.

Sean straightens. Blake makes a face. “You’re supposed to be my friend,” he says. “You’re not supposed to give me a shovel talk.”

Sean flicks him in the forehead. “I got a hot date tonight. Don’t text.” He swaggers off.

“Don’t call me for a ride home because I’m busy tonight,” Blake yells after him. He puts on his shoes.

#the fic is suuuuuch garbage and i need to edit it so bad but i am trying to yeet as many boxes out of this house as i can #before my new job starts next week. so every single fic i'm working on is having a nice restful stay in the garden for a while #my lakehouse fic likely will not get finished....alas lol. after i finish time begins i gotta throw all my energy into my fth fic #i have created a nightmare situation for myself beyond mortal comprehension but hey! at least i have dental insurance again #this post is a hot fucking mess my god but again the only person i'm apologizing to is m pindergarten. sorry m 😔 #cage replies #anon

idk why I’m seeing ur 2 day old reblog first in my feed lol but I just saw today that ppl are planning to protest and boycott loblaws in may. Idk how it’ll work considering the stinky company owns damn near everything and (usually white) people on TikTok only know how to complain and never shop at local poc owned supermarkets, but I hope it does work out somehow. I miss eating a lot of things I used to eat in my childhood but just can’t afford anymore. Like Christie cookies 😔 they shut down the cookie factory and now the cookies are smaller and taste like cocoa butter and cost Like 8$ For a small pack. Screw George Weston and all those greedy white men!!!

also hi lol I haven’t talked to u in so long I miss u. I see u everytime I log on here (which is like once a week rip) but I’m always so socially exhausted That I can’t find the energy to reach out. Hope you’ve been well <33

hellooooooooo emmy <3 i miss you too but i totally get it haha sometimes the energy is just not there for socialising online after having to do so all day already

its so true. not many things are the same through the process of shrinkflation and cheapening of ingredients alone. then you add on the fact that theyre still MORE expensive despite that and its just...ugh. loblaws is the devil for real ;A; unfortunately they are sometimes the only option in small towns and rural areas but i hope people in cities do really begin to fully boycott them because it is needed. there are so many better, smaller options. poc grocers, small grocers, certain farmers markets, etc. but keeping people exhausted & broke all the time in combination with owning literally every option really leads to a true illusion of choice....

Hiiii 😭

hello :>

how's it going

#also sorry i've been garbage with replying to messages i'm fighting for my life over here 🙏

[hadrianblackwaters]

hi! i'm american and i have Answers. our trash does get sorted and some of it recycled, it doesn't all get dumped in landfills and you're not meant to intentionally dump it down the sink. garbage disposals are for any solid food that might go down your drain (like if you're rinsing off dishes or something), it shreds it so it won't clog up your pipes. also, while it is definitely an American Thing, lots of homes don't have one; i'm 25 and i don't think i've ever lived in a home with a garbage disposal.

Ahhhh thank you so much!! That makes a lot more sense and I feel a little less ignorant now! We usually use harsh chemicals down the drain to unclog it when that happens, and I'm sure that's not the best either :')

So what you're telling me is it's not only for hands that get stuck down your sink? TV lied to me! ;)

#ask #thank you! #whilst im in my inbox i see there are loads of messages i havent seen until now 😬 i will reply and publish those later #garbage disposals are still scary to me

[an-absolute-trainwreck]

if it's stupid but it works, it ain't stupid

I agree and can only assume this is about the cereal poll

The more I think about it, the more it may be a class/region thing??

#my parents grew up poor and we live in Appalachia. ppl keep talking about garbage disposals and I’m like bro we don’t have those lmao #it’s the most logical solution #although shoutout to that one person in the replies who was like ‘HOW DARE YOU WASTE MILK! THE COW WORKED HARD ON THAT!’ #like babe I agree but there are other factors. I’m not drinking milk that’s sat out all day because I couldn’t finish my cereal that day #ppl on the internet are. weird. really weird.
