We are side characters in the stories of our coworkers…

“She was muttering something about needing lilac to celebrate the Glorious Orthodox Star Wars Towel Day?”

“I have no idea.”

Due to the time difference, most of the good RotJ40 stuff here came when I was peacefully sleeping after a nice May the 25th, so today I just pretend it's still Star Wars Day and reblog everything with RotJ40.

Soup Day: a proposal for a TLT fandom holiday

Because Mean Girls wear pink on October 3rd. Star Wars celebrates May the 4th. Hitchhikers and Discworld fans don towels and lilacs (respectively) on May 25th.

Locked Tomb friends, we need a holiday.

I propose that 9/9 of every year is Soup Day. We celebrate, of course, by consuming soups. We share photos, recipes, and if you have a group of irl bone bitches, the soup itself.

If you can’t eat soup, put bread in a drawer. If you can’t eat bread, stare in anguish at a cup of lukewarm tea while contemplating the ways your God has disappointed you. Use your own moral judgment on whether you consume cow products on that day, as cows do exhibit mourning behavior.

Anyways that’s my plan for dinner on September 9th and you’re all invited! 🖤🖤🖤 I’m telling everyone nice and early so you can start hoarding bones. For stock, of course.

Tumblr Holidays

We’ve had the comment first rule suspended for a number of tumblr holidays in the past, but I tend to forget about them until the last minute and then it’s too late to make a post about it, so I’m implementing that the comment first rule is suspended on all the tumblr holidays on the following list:

January 24th (End of Tumblr Live)

February 15 (International Fandom Day)

March 15th (Ides of March)

April 1st (April Fools)

April 25th (the perfect date Miss Congeniality)

April 30th (it’s gonna be may)

May the 4th (Star Wars day)

July 11th (DashCon anniversary)

October 3rd (Mean Girls/Fullmetal Alchemist)

October 31st (Halloween)

November 5th (Destiel and general chaos)

November 14th (AO3’s birthday)

December 31st & January 1st (to new beginnings)

On these days you do not have to provide a link to a work you commented on to submit something to the Comment Exchange.

I know I missed some, these are mostly just of the top of my head. Please send in suggestions for other tumblr holidays that should be part of this list.

Here’s the Cincinnati Showcase Cinemas May 25th, 1977 ad for Star Wars. Kinda small. No one knew what was going to happen. On this day, only 31 screens played SW nationwide. Only 31. Cincy lucked out. To be clear, in the weeks ahead, the film would suddenly be booked EVERYWHERE.
