New Twentieth Century Swansea Sounds

Stellar Album New Twentieth Century LP by UK’s Swansea Sound is a force of indie pop nature to be reckoned with. Crisp, sleek, and summery, guitar driven indie rock. But before I delve into this record.. If you peruse my blog it seems like I might know what I’m talking about. Full disclosure : I really don’t. It just so happens I am around long enough to catch wind of Heavenly. Two members of…

Winning Strategies For Games Of Chance

Winning strategies for games of chance #Poohsticks

In an Olympic year it might be churlish to gainsay the founder of the modern games, Baron Pierre de Coubertin, whose mantra was that “the most important thing in the Olympic Games is not winning but taking part; the essential thing in life is not conquering but fighting well”. That is all very well, but for some psychologists and game theorists rock, paper, scissors (RPS) offered the opportunity…

you’re my kaleidoscope by orphan_account ♡

when remus wakes up to find a baby on his doorstep, he has no idea what to do. especially when it turns out the baby has come from a drunken one-night-stand. with no idea what to do, remus is surprised the moment his two neighbours decide to step in and help him raise the baby. all is well–for a year, until teddy’s birth mother’s sudden return, and then the fight for remus to keep his family together begins

I just didn't know it yet by poohsticks

sirius comes to realise that the time waiting for his soulmate was well worth the wait

all hail the outlaws by orphan_account ♡

one of remus lupin's three jobs happens to be working maintenance for their flat building. he gets to meet all sorts, most of whom he would rather have nothing to do with. until james potter and sirius black move in across the hall. engineering students and self-proclaimed geniuses, the pair set out to make their neighbours new best friends, and everyone's life is turned upside down, but in the best way possible.

of cinema and sticky notes by bluepeony

remus lupin is the office bore. sirius black is the office sweetheart. they fancy each other, on a purely aesthetic level.

no desks where harmed by simpforfictionalcharacters0102

remus is working himself to death so sirius gives him a distraction.

wet dog by lyinglikebreathing ♡

sirius is tired of remus saying he smells like a wet dog, so he bathes himself in amortentia to cover it up. it doesn’t work quite as well as he expected it to…

wolfy by orphan_account

there were three types of people: kissers, namers, and tattooers. you either had a tattoo that matched another's or a name marked above your heart. if you didn't, then you were a kisser, recognizing your soulmate at first touch or kiss, as innocent as the person wanted it to be.

as soon as you were born, it was obvious which category you fell into.

sirius had a tattoo.

remus didn't.

I'm killing boys by spiritedaways ♡

when sirius finds himself becoming a sacrifice for a local band, the last thing he expects is to become reborn into something more sinister.

christmas canoodles by softsilkentofu ♡

it's the trope holy trinity with wolfstar: when remus's grandmother mistakenly assumes he is dating sirius and invites them over for christmas on a fjord, there's nothing this loyal grandson can do but fake a relationship and call his best friend boyfriend - can this particular werewolf survive sharing a bed with his crush all during the holidays? only one way to find out!

good nights by kittycargo

remus tried his best to make his voice stern. “I thought you were so tired.”

“I was. and then I took a nap, and now I’m very, very awake.” each ‘very’ was punctuated with another press of his hips.

fight me by orphan_account

remus is a bit more efficient when taking care of a very feverish, and slightly delirious, sirius.

let love in by shessocold

there are things about sirius that only remus understands.

a pair of brown eyes by shessocold

remus is about to turn 40

breathless by nachodiablo

sirius is confident that their first date with remus is going to be memorable, and it is... just not in the ways they expect.

midnight snacks and stolen hearts by orphan_account ♡

the first time it happened, sirius wondered if miracles were real.

the second time it happened, he wondered what on earth he did to deserve something so wonderful, if only for a few moments.

-

sirius falls head over heels for frank's gorgeous and hilarious roommate. the catch? the stunning man is sleepwalking every time they meet and believes Sirius is just a dream.

who's minding the store by escribo

sirius is minding his own business, remus just wants to buy a book, and James doesn't even work there.

cupid disarmed by anonymous

remus lupin has veela blood, sirius black reads trite romance novels, and neither of them are quite sure what the fuck to do with their hands when they get to talking with one another.

1% inspiration, 99% perspiration by greyeyedmonster18

james potter - quidditch captain, head boy, bright smile, stupid big shoulders with a fucking dimple-- has one fatal flaw: he happens to be....terrible at dirty talk and remus lupin is distraught. (a moonchaser au)

mon amour - my love by neondomino

remus couldn't let anything happen with sirius. after all, sirius was an exchange student, due to return to france in a few months.

or

sirius black didn't expect to fall in love minutes after stepping off the eurostar. all he knew was that he would give up everything to stay with remus.

little red riding hood and other misnomers by someone_aka_me

sirius may wear a red riding cloak, but he is no little red riding hood. but that's okay, because remus doesn't make a very good big bad wolf, either.

sharpened canines by allthisandlovetoowillruinus

in the midst of the first war, remus realizes he's misunderstood why sirius has been distant.

keysmash by allthisandlovetoowillruinus ♡

unknown number (sun, 9:03 am): hey settle an argument chocolate milk in cereal is innovative and cool, right?

remus (sun, 9:07 am): it absolutely is not who tf are u

unknown number (sun, 9:08 am): first of all, fuck u and second of all i told james u said yes anyway that’s what u get for living in my phone

sirius texts a wrong number, remus faces some fears, and things get better.

problems with narrative structure and the rules of manly engagement [+podfic] by xinasvoice ♡

"there were easily six hundred people living in the paramount building in downtown san francisco. that was a lot of neighbors to get to know, but it only took a single day of living there for sirius to notice remus."

skinny dip by nachodiablo

james and sirius come back from an evening swim in the lake. remus does not like this at all, for some reason.

what isn't there by nachodiablo

sirius has changed, but remus still loves him.

self-reflection by picascribit

"isn't the animagus form supposed to ... sort of ... reflect a person's inner self?"

on the Marauders' first night out together under the full moon, remus notices something unexpected about Sirius's animagus form.

discards: valentine's day by picascribit ♡

remus forgets valentine's day. sirius wants to make it special.

discards: commencement by picascribit

sirius and lily attend remus's graduation from the university of washington. sirius has just one question for him.

the secret girlfriend [+podfic] by picascribit

james and peter are scandalized that remus didn't tell them he has a girlfriend, but sirius knows the truth.

translate [+podfic] by picascribit

remus gave a hollow, humourless chuckle. "is something funny?" his boyfriend asked irritably. "a bit," said remus. "pomfrey thinks I'm pregnant." sirius stilled. "that's not funny." "no, I suppose it's not." "are you?" remus looked down at his feet, dangling over the lake. "yeah."

Nevermind sex or romance with my f/o, i wanna play poohsticks with them. They would only begrudgingly do it at first, but then they would get really competitive and fight me over the best sticks, and argue that i dropped it before they did, and they would be very smug if they won.

[sarahthecoat]

first bit that got me to *make* stuff, hmm. Horse fandom? cos we made tack for our breyer moulding company horses, and the pony club book had the cutaway diagrams of the structure inside a saddle.

although, maybe the winnie the pooh books even before that, because we did poohsticks, and messing about outdoors, and between us had all the stuffed toys. (and Spotted and Herbaceous Backson pjs) i just also want to point out that this was before disney got hold of it and barfified the art. erase that, ernest shepard forever, only and always.

what was your original fandom. like not the one you first started with on tumblr. the first bit of media that you made content for

Extract from The Infertility Trap, by Laureate Professor John Aitken, Scientific Director at Memphasys.

As a species we are being swept away along a river of our own making that will lead to massive changes in our reproductive fortunes if current trends are not recognised and reversed. Like hapless Poohsticks, we shall be carried towards the raging rapids of reproductive ruin if we do not pause for  a moment and reflect on where the current changes in population dynamics are leading us. This requires us not only to look back and understand the past but also to project the consequences of our current behaviours well into the future.

[marshmyers]

Delve into the home of the world's most beloved bear! The Natural World of Winnie-the-Pooh explores the magical landscapes where Pooh, Christopher Robin, and their friends live and play. The Hundred Acre Wood — the setting for Winnie-the-Pooh's adventures--was inspired by Ashdown Forest, a wildlife haven spanning more than 6,000 acres in southeast England. In the pages of this enchanting book, you can visit the ancient black walnut tree on the edge of the forest that became Pooh's house, go deep into the pine trees to find Poohsticks Bridge, and climb up to the top of the enchanted Galleons Lap, where Pooh says goodbye to Christopher Robin. You will discover how Milne's childhood connection with nature and his role as a father influenced his famous stories and how his close collaboration with illustrator E. H. Shepard brought those stories to life.
