New Post -Bug fixed

I'm sorry 1st rounder but could you please vote again

Today I talked to a girl at my workplace about the little mermaid movie. She told me she always wanted to become a mermaid since she was a child. So I(autistic) might have dumped her too much info about marine lifes and hypothetical mermaid living conditions. As you could have guessed she told me to shut up. But her reason surprised me a lot.

She said: "I want to become a mermaid but I never wanted to know about how mermaids live or about anything else in the sea."

All my life I've always done a lot of research on mythical beings and their living conditions when I liked one before deciding if I want to become one of them.

This girl just saw a cartoon once as a kid and decided she wanted to become a mermaid without any interest in the sea. That's weird for me and I think she's neurotypical if that's relevant.

So my friends please enlighten me: is it common to do research about the mythical beings you wish to be.

And if you could, please reblog for larger sample size.

“Some weres in the recent past have made some ‘rules’ for therianthropy. Ignore these. There are no rules that any of these people can place over YOU and your spiritual beliefs. Some will claim that you must be a predatory animal, or you cannot be a mythical beast. Please do not fall for this. These rules may be true for their small groups, or their friends, but they do not govern therianthropy. Most of these people create rules to limit the number of members in their group, or to exclude people from therianthropy altogether. These people have no right, and you shouldn’t listen to them. Once again, find the truth for yourself. The werecommunity has many members who believe they are mice, deer, rabbits, snakes, dragons, unicorns, and gryphons. You find out what’s true for yourself, and nothing else matters.”

- Excerpt from “Introduction to the Newbie’s Guide,” by Jakkal, in 2001. You can read the full article here.

Some present-day context: Jakkal is one of the most respected and influential writers of the therianthrope community of the 1990s. She ran one of the main therian sites, which is where this article was. At the time, it was common to call therians “weres,” from the word “werewolf.” Today you can still find some therian groups who have made themselves echo chambers where they try to push misinformation of the very kind that Jakkal warns against in this piece from over two decades ago. Sharing and reading widely from different times and places in our communities-- especially about harmless opinions and experiences that differ from our own-- are important methods for preventing such echo chambers of misinformation.

The black eyed children.

Hi, umm.. well let's forget about me being inactive and continue as if I didn't vanish for months (^.^;

I'm not a social person and doesn't really go on social media, expect of youtube for funny videos and cartoon episodes that don't air on the t.v as much :p It's a bit childish, yes, but cartoons are much better that the shows that air nowadays ‾\_(ッ)_/‾ anyways enjoy reading about this legend.

Black eyed children or black eyed kids are an American comtemporay legend of parnormal creatures that resemble children between ages 6 and 16 with pales skin and black eyes, who are reportedly seen hichhiking or begging or are encounted on doorsteps of residential homes.

While tabloid coverage of these creatures has claimed that tales of the blackeyed children have existed since the 1980s, most sources indicate that the legend originated from 1996 posting written by taxes reporter Brian Bethel on a ghost-related mailing list, relating two alleged encounters with "black-eyed kids".

Bethel describes encountering two such children in Abilene, Texas in 1996 and claims that a second person had a similar and related encounter in Portland, Oreagon. Bethel's stories have become regarded as classic examples of creepypasta, and gained such the urban legend.

In 2012 Brian Bethel tumhe stories on reality t.v series "Monsters and Mysteries in America". He wrote a fellow-up article for the Abilene Reporter News, describing his experience and maintaining his belief that it was legitimate.

In 2012 the horror film "Black eyed kids" produced with Kickstarter funding, it's director commented that the creepy children were "an urban Legend that's been floating around on the internet for years now, I always thought it was fascinating."

A 2013 episode of MSN's weekly strange that features reports of black eyed children is thought to have helped spread the legends on the internet. During one week in September 2014 the British tabloid daily star Run three sensationalistic front page storees about allege sightings of the Black Eyed children, connected to the sale of a supposed haunted pub in Staffordshire. The paper claimed a "shock rise in sightings around the world".

Alleged sightings are taking seriously by ghost hunters some of whom believe black eyed children to be extraterrestrials, vampires or ghosts.

Science writer Sharon A. Hill was unable to find any documentation of Black Eye child encounters, considering that the tales are passed on as "friend of a friend" ghost stories. Hill consider the legend to resemble "typical spooky forklore stories" but as the Phantom black dog where the subject is not Supernatural and there may never have been an actual original encounter.

Snopes rates Tales of Black Eyed children as a legend and cities and inquisitr article that advice dresses to"(f)ile black eye children under the same heading as "bigfoot".

Believe it if you like but realiz that there is no evidence of these existence, just subjective testimony that ranges from reasonable to suspicious fame-whoring.

*This is how they should look like (the eyes I mean.)

A/n: Disclamer! picture is from google don't come after me for it, Owner of the picture if you want me to take the picture off just let me know.

And well that all for today, Hope you enjoyed reading it.

I MEAN but wouldn't that be an incredible isekai series??

a modern princess whose job is basically just being a beautiful figurehead

grows bored with her vapid role in life and withdraws from society, riddled with ennui

only to fall into a fantasy realm where princesses have real political power

as well as important responsibilities that her subjects depend upon

and at first it's a comedy of errors as she realizes that none of her training prepared her for this

but then she grows as a person and applies herself to learning how to guide and guard this kingdom

and becomes the powerful and just princess she was always meant to be

...so I guess apparently my new favorite conspiracy theory is that kate's shoujo manga just underwent a MASSIVE genre switch.

#realistic royal meet-cutes are OUT fantasy realms in need of strong leadership are IN #I don't know what the hell is in WOW I've never played it I just made up a fantasy realm in my head #I'm an American so being anti-monarchist is in my blood #but along with the magic and mythical creatures part of the fantasy is that monarchies are cool here #so that's all right #kategate #kate middleton

I NEED people to know about the Danny Phantom Pitch Bible, which is a collection of ideas that were originally thought of when DP was being pitched to Nickelodeon. Here are some ideas from that:

Jack was a military test pilot who strapped himself to rockets and shot himself across time and space, mainly because he could.

Maddie was a multi Nobel prize winner for her work in metaphysics (so many prizes you could make a wind chime apparently).

Jazz simply wants friends and to fit in, as while she is intelligent, she is rather lonely and doesn’t have friends.

The name “Danny Phantom” was a nickname given to Danny by his best friends, because he was skittish and scared of his own shadow.

The Ghost Zone, or The Unreal, as it was originally called, housed more than just ghosts. It had demons, and other supernatural and mythological creatures!

I need art of these concepts! Please!!!

Here’s the link to the pitch bible!
