#Random Timbit

[timbrrwolfe]

Sometimes I think about how I literally decided not to write fanfic when I was younger because I was worried that I wouldn't be able to write characters accurately.

Which stings even more when I see super successful novels/series that started as fanfic, and any deviation was actually a benefit rather than a problem.

Like. I could've had that. I could've had a ton more practice writing, I could've been bonding with friends over it, I could've been much further along in my writing journey by now.

But that's true of many areas of my life. So perhaps instead of whining about what I didn't do at points in my life up to and including, y'know, today, I should actually start doing those things.

Basically what I'm saying is maybe 2025 is the year I take some established universes and play around inside of them and see if I can't get some writing done that way and see what ideas flourish. Not that I don't have plenty of ideas of my own to work with, but having an established world and canon might help me focus more on plot so I can crank out an actual story instead of just a cool world I'd like to live in. Or see happen. Or whatever.

This post made me realize that I don't actually remember how I learned magic. Like. I remember learning that it was a thing and somehow got in touch with someone who was taking the same class as me at a higher level in high school, and he gave me a taste to see if I wanted to get more into it. But at the time I didn't because I was too socially anxious (among other things) to be willing to hang out with him and his group after school. It wasn't until years later that I ended up digging into it more on my own. But I forget the actual mechanism for learning I used during that process. Whether it was through the rulebook or something else. It certainly wasn't by mingling with other people, since I didn't actually do that until I went to Arena, at which point I already understood the basics.

I think it's hilarious that hands down the worst way to learn magic is the actual rulebook. Please do not read that. It's just there for reference when something weird happens

it's funny to me that whenever foreign people visit canada everybody is like "omg you have to try tim hortons!!!!" because it's the closest thing we have to an actual culture. but it's literally just like Food and coffee that ppl r gonna have anyway. it's like if whenever you went to america they were all like omg you HAVE to try a mcdonalds hamburger it's a cultural staple. like Yeah I guess but is that something to be proud of?? there are other things. we have forests etc

titronto recap!! spoilers below the cut !!

before I get into I just want send the biggest good vibes to all of the Americans out there, and also everyone else feeling really discouraged about the election. ily, take care of yourselves <3

- we all did the hot to go dance together during the pre show playlist

- everyone dressed so to theme it was so crazy seeing the streets of toronto filled up with phannies it was lovely

- dan started the show by saying he was glad they were in Canada instead of America that night :,))

- phil said he was gonna be extra annoying bc he had 3 birthday cake flavoured timbits before the show

- someone threw a trans flag down from a balcony at one point it was so good

- phil accidentally slipped up and called us “phersons” at one point and they both laughed about it. we are phersons thank you 🫶

- our random talking point was “moose” but the boys weren’t sure if we actually said “goose” so the topic was “meese”

- lawyer dan wrote erotica about tim bits. at some point whoever was typing backstage changed that answer to “phim phits”

- when giving the traits of real Phil, the audience was obviously made up of Phillies and we were just clapping for him until the card that said “loves capitalism” and then it went a little silent and people started doing this 👎👎 and dan was like. “we got him boys. we got him”

- we ended up killing real dan and linguist phil

- dan verbally called out someone videoing or taking photos with their phone fhsj

- idk if he does this every show but dan said “I’m just a girl’ at one point and me and my friend went crazy

- while they were boxing and doing their trash talk and dan was like “scared?” And phil said “just scared of my life without you after I kill you” Iris and I were both like. 🫢🫢 so what do you mean by that

- stage manager cleaning up the boxing while they monologue. hey 🫶🫶 you are my hero 🫶🫶

general thoughts!!! phil is so beautiful. He is so so beautiful. every time he looked up at us me and Iris felt a little faint. dan and is also gorgeous oh my god. he’s also so kinetic and he moves around doing weird poses the whole time

their chemistry is so good!! like the comedic timing and the way they play off each other. all of it sounded very natural, I couldn’t really tell what was improv or scripted for a lot of the show

when sister daniel came out iris and i lost capability to speak. like wdym. she is so beautiful in person

@aterribleinfluence + Hayley @sisterdaniels @kettle-on it was so so nice meeting you!! and it was great handing bracelets out to people that was so cute. mwah mwah mwah

[timbit-robin-art]

good sir and master of goobers can we get the official top ten timbit robin comic book headcanons (not clickbait) (gone wrong) (shocking)

Baha, I sure hope this isn’t a “gone wrong” ask. That would be terrible. I’m also not sure how I would rank these, so they’re in no particular order. Sorry if I misunderstood the ask.

Some of these might not make sense to you guys, and that’s okay. You can probably tell I’m heavily projecting with a lot of these. If I have a problem, so do my favorite characters. It’s our problem now, fellas.

Tim Drake has the flavor of autism that makes him like rhythm games. When it’s a slow night at the cave, he’ll sometimes play a couple of songs with the sound off (and all Bruce can hear is the aggressive tapping of Tim’s thumbs; he is very confused).

Gambit isn’t a huge fan of dogs. I can see him being chased or bit by one or when he was younger, making him wary of them ever since. He also just doesn’t like how high energy they are. Or the oils their coats have (hint of autistic Gambit?).

Dick Grayson is very good at spotting neurodivergent people. I love headcanons like autistic Bruce and Wally with ADHD, so Dick hanging around them gifted him the Neurodivergent Radar(TM). He definitely knew Tim was autistic the moment they met. I’d also like to think Kori has some autistic and ADHD characteristics (as in if she was an earthling, she would 100% be diagnosed with autism/ADHD), so it’s funny to think that Dick is surrounded by autism and ADHD on all sides.

Bucky Barnes has SM (selective mutism). People used to give him grief for it when he was younger, but now that he’s the Winter Soldier, he gets away with it easier. Many people think it’s just a quirk he has post-conditioning.

Louis Lane is dyslexic (this is actually inspired by every time she’s misspelt something in her articles). I don’t think she would be diagnosed, but everyone around her 100% knows. Clark and Jimmy have been trying to find nice ways to bring it up to her.

You’ve heard of autistic Scott Summers, now get ready for ADHD Jean Grey. I’d like to think being a telepath is already a very ADHD thing to be, but Jean definitely had it before her mutation began to show. This made her telekinesis a nightmare to train, and even to this day, she’ll accidentally pick up random objects and have them float behind her while she’s trying to complete tasks around the Institute.

Jaime Reyes fidgets with everything. He has a habit of accidentally touching things without asking permission, and everyone around him has learned to watch Jaime very carefully when they’re dealing with things that shouldn’t be touched. Tim has been startled on many occasions by Jaime fiddling with his cape. But Tim has learned to adjust to it, as long as Jaime doesn’t tug or anything. Edward gave him his very first fidget cube.

Storm’s major hyper-fixation is plants. She knows everything about botany and has to keep her excitement contained whenever someone asks a plant-related question. I think people like Jean and Gambit have picked up on this, so they decide to prompt some botany discussions with her because they like how happy she looks when she subconsciously unmasks to talk about plants.

Hal Jordan can’t sit through meetings at all. Everyone initially thought he was trying to be difficult on purpose (it especially annoyed Bruce), but when Barry (someone who also has trouble with meetings) admits he has ADHD, they all kind of connected the dots with Hal. I don’t see him having it nearly as bad as Barry or Kyle, but it’s definitely there.

Peter Parker likes film cameras with the film advance lever. He likes the clicks and how the tension feels when he cranks it back. And then the click of the shutter button is a nice bonus. It’s like a fidget toy to him. He’s kind of worried he’ll one day break a camera from how often he does it, but he still catches himself doing it a lot.

So… yeah. 10 Timbit Robin headcanons for you. I’m sorry these all turned out with some sort of autism or ADHD thing, that’s just how I connect with characters. My headcanons are always either “this character listens to (band)” or “this character has (insert problem here).” I hope someone out there can see my vision.

[be-bisexual-eat-hot-chip-and-lie]

i felt the spirit of eric bittle today

i was at a pregame tailgate, getting tipsy at 10 am, and offering timbits to random strangers

[reallytimhortons]

would you be willing to participate in a trade? (i give you cool and random shit and you give me one coffee and timbits)

@totally-official-goodwill (< a tim hortons fan)

Ye gib cool shit I have a coffee and timbits right here

[randonauticrap]

I just drafted a whole thing for you about Tim Hortons when the app decided to just…reset all of a sudden. This won’t be as eloquent but it’s the same gist;

Tim’s is a relatively inexpensive coffee/breakfast food option. Timbits are my fave, especially the birthday cake and sour cream glazed flavors hehe. The coffee isn’t great, the toasted bagels always have too much or too little cream cheese or butter, and they sponsor a lot of youth hockey leagues. I personally like it when I’m on the road!! Nothing is really better than trying out a bunch of random things that they’ve rolled out to try and stay cool.

But I’m still a Starbucks girlie through and through sgsjzhsijz 😝

Ohhh I have heard of Tim Hortons! We don't have it where I am so I've never been, but I'd never heard it shortened to "Tim's" before. Lol

Sour cream glazed flavor?! Birthday cake? Girl you're making me hungry. I do appreciate the full honesty with the coffee, cause if I ever do get to try it, I don't want to be disappointed with bad coffee. Lol Bad coffee makes me sad.

It feels like one of those wannabe gas station restaurants from your description. 😂 And I don't mean the actual good ones that are nice inside, I mean the ones that plop a dinky lil restaurant inside the front door off to the left where you can get half a ham and cheese sandwich with one thin slice of ham for like $1.59 with tax, but the chips and popcorn are fire. 🤣🤣

Ok that last one was me the one (1) time I took part in a musical. I don't even particularly like watching musicals, but when I was in high school my sunday school teacher had this great idea to get a bunch of the sunday school classes together to perform a kid-level Christmas musical. Now, I had spent a good amount of time and effort avoiding being on stage in front of the congregation as much as possible. But the teacher putting it all together gave me the smallest part (she said because I was the funniest, though I'm sure my reluctance to do anything was a factor as well), and it was such a big production that I couldn't just Not Show Up the day it was happening. So I had to do a musical. I do my memorization, I go to our practices, and I come up with my old man voice to use as the innkeeper turning away Mary and Joseph (and yelling at my off-stage wife). Probably less than 10 lines total. I had no desire to do it. But I Did do it. To the best of my ability. So. Funniest person in the cast playing a bit part with all they have.

i LOVE watching clips from high school productions on youtube. geeky high school thespians are my favorite people on this earth

ideas #104748292992 that pop up my head when i can't sleep on a random sunday before going to bed: but what about a DUOLOGY rom-com single dads series that would go like this:

1st installment

richie & patches are long time best friends where patches is the single dad of raf, owen & josh

richie is the headcoach of the timbits hockey team of patches' sons

here comes stoic stoney as the uncle of one of the boys on the team that would meet up one day

turns out that patches & him used to have been back when they were playing juniors (as well as richie obviously)

they reunited; they fall in love; raf/owen/josh do their best to do the matchmakers

2nd installment

here come struggling single dad carts with littol kent who wants to play hockey but carts has ptsd from whatever the injury & hockey

kent is friend with owen & they sneak out to richie who's like: uh ok kid

carts come to meet richie & stuff & he's cold at first

richie realizes that he used to play with carts, be his friend, etc.

(cool moments of richie showing up @ 6167 household u know for the circle moments & stuff)

carts overcome his fear and falls in love richie

thank u for having listening to another episode tonight of ✨your girl✨ has insomnia again and too many ideas she can handle

[timbrrwolfe]

Me: "Man why the h*ck am I in such a down mood tonight?" Also me: *has very little motivation to do things I enjoy, let alone things I don't want to do but need to*

Ah. Could be related.

[trulybetty]

My random question is— what is your favorite Tim Hortons treat? Where I live in the states, they have taken away all the good things 😞 it may or may not be one of the reasons I’m planning a Canadian road trip for next summer lol

Happy Thanksgiving!

Ooo, good question!

That sucks - I know there was a big push to bring Tims down to the States, then for them to take away the good stuff, not a good look Tim.

They've changed a lot of stuff over the years I've been in Canada, but I'm a sucker for their steeped tea still. I'm surprised their cold brew is pretty good and I will never say no to sour cream glazed doughnut - or any Timbits 🙌

Canadian road trip in the summer? That sounds like so much fun! I've been here so long and there's still so much I want to see! It's very easy for me to forget out big Canada is 😝

Alfred F Jones -> Tumbleweed Destroyer

Hi 👋 you can call me Nether, Netherzon, or some variation thereof

This blog is for hetalia things: random thoughts & headcanons, historical stuff, shitposts, other people’s art, fanfiction (other’s and mine)

~(detailed ramblings under the cut)~

The romantic stuff I write is mostly Gerame centric rn, but I’ve dabbled in some silly NA bro stuff too

Irreverent humor is still my dominant character trait though, so please don’t take me too seriously

I put SFW and NSFW stuff on this blog

#my writing / link to my ao3 / #fic recommendations

Fic Masterlist:

Apfelkuchen or Apple Pie America/Germany, Finished

Germany refers to Apfelkuchen as 'apple pie' at a G8 meeting. America is outraged, and makes it his new mission to show Germany how wrong he is. Pie-fueled nonsense ensues, but maybe there's something more there too?

I Will Reign King at Sea, America/Germany, Unfinished

After an unexpected drunken night, Ludwig and Gilbert end up "employed" on a trans-Atlantic merchant ship. When the best way of getting home seems to be piracy, Ludwig soon finds himself doing things he'd never imagined himself doing before. Pulled into treacherous games, family drama, and the whims of their captain, by the time the chance to leave presents itself, will Ludwig still want to?

The Time's Always Right to Fix What's Wrong, America/Germany, Unfinished

After losing his last close friend, Ludwig decides he’s lived through enough deaths. He knows who his soulmate is and he knows where to find him. The only reason he’s lived this long is every time Alfred sees him, he runs away, too attached to the thought of immortality. All Alfred has to do is avoid falling in love with Ludwig, and he’ll be young forever. All Ludwig has to do is get Alfred to fall in love with him…and find it in his heart to love Alfred back after everything.

Geburtstag, American Style! America/Germany, Finished

Its Ludwig's birthday, and Alfred tries really hard to get him a gift he'll like. He's just easily discouraged, doesn't know how to dream small, and is a perfectionist at the worst possible times. This leads him to seek the help of a trusted baking show host rather than lean on his brother. Things get out of hand, people say things they don't mean, but that's how it goes sometimes. They will learn how to come back from that.

Don't Ask (Cake), Nyo!America/Nyo!Germany, Finished

Amelia and Monika can both be very stubborn. Once they’ve decided something, it can be hard to change their mind. On this day, they will settle the ultimate debate: is zucchini bread ‘bread’? Also, can you make chocolate cake with sauerkraut?

Bear Jail, Gen, Unfinished

Exactly what it sounds like. Kuma gets put in Polar Bear Jail.

I Know You Don't Like Me, But... America/Germany, Finished

Ludwig can be a little mean sometimes, but they'll work it out in the end

One Time I Dreamt That I Gave My Organs Away America/Germany, Finished

Alfred and Ludwig are both a little macabre. Their humor is dark, their affection is dark, their interests are dark. So basically they’re perfect for each other. They just don't know that yet.

Hetaween Incubus Snippet America/Germany, Unfinished

The snippet is finished but the idea is not: One night, Alfred is visited in his dreams by an Incubus. Or at least that's what the guy says he is. He doesn't look like Alfred's idea of an incubus when he dresses like a modest high school English teacher, and talks like he's making a "put you to sleep" ASMR video. But perhaps there is a method to Ludwig's madness?

Nadezdha, Canada/Russia, Finished

Secret santa gift! Russia takes a vacation to the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug, where he meets an old friend and makes a new one.

Glitter Bomb Gen, Unfinished

Alfred F Jones receives a glitter bomb in the mail and goes nuts with his newly acquired glitter power at the world meeting that day. His brother, Matthew Williams, is dragged along with him.

Timbits Disappearing Act Gen, Finished

Canada uses his invisibility to eat donuts at the world meeting, America takes the fall for it

Fichi secchi Gen, Finished

Felicia visits Romano in America. She tries to bring a bit of home with her, but that plan goes sideways. They make it work anyway.

In Which Eliza's Ships Sink, and Everyone Agrees its for the Best America/Japan and Canada/Netherlands, Unfinished

Abel is in love with Matthew Kiku is in love with Alfred Eliza is convinced they should be in love with each other

Hetalia World Spoons Gen, Unfinished

In Hetalia: the Beautiful World episode 2 Germany broke a spoon to get an interview with the magic club. In Hetalia World Stars episode 2 America breaks several spoons during a meeting and Germany reprimands him. This is an alternate series of events for that episode where America finds out Germany can also break spoons. Chaos ensues.

Spin off fics, fanart, mood boards, playlists, whatever.

[marrymepickering]

random but im gonna cry because I want timmies... but why are there none even near pittsburgh. when I go home from Thanksgiving, the first thing I'm getting is timbits

[blonkk]

i get so emotionally turbulent in the airport. maybe it’s because i’m always going off 2 hours of sleep and it takes me 2 hours to drive to the airport and i always book 6am flights and i always drink the night before. anyways i read this reddit post where this kids stepdad always financially provides fairly for him and his bio kids but excludes the stepson from special trips etc. he told the stepson it’s bc those are his bio kids and he wants to spend time with them and show them they mean more to him by virtue of being blood etc. he raised the stepson since he was one and shows preferential treatment to his bio kids, one of whom is the stepsons half sister. so the stepson responded by calling him by his first name rather than “dad” and stepdad got upset and hurt…anyways that story made me cry. idk i guess maybe it’s “natural” to other a kid who’s not “yours” biologically but jesus christ. you can’t treat a kid that way, exclude them, let them know they are less loved….irresponsible and cruel imo, no matter how you truly feel….

so there’s that. and then i saw this old dude handing presumably his wife a box of timbits and i got all gushy. and this older couple across from me is so cute the lady is just resting on her man’s chest and he’s just sitting there doing his thang. idk man i’m probably pmsing. i also have been reflecting on my loneliness and it’s imminent return LOL all my friends are leaving where i live soon and i’ll be alone..but i guess that’s my lot in life? that’s the way it is. there’s a lot of people i really love and appreciate even if they’re not the ideal friends/what have you. one being my roommate, a 50yo dude who does nothing but drink beer and smoke weed and talks about missing his daughter who he goes to see like once a year. i don’t agree with that aspect of his life (go see your KID instead of buying a new dirt bike !!) but man i have a lot of affection for him. he’s very generous and caring and kind and he channels his misplaced fatherly energy towards myself and the other younger workers on the mountain. i genuinely get along with him, and when he was with his daughter over the weekend i missed him…like i would get home and be like damn drew’s not here :/ and literally all we do is yap after-work style and sometimes watch shows. but idk he’s my favourite roommate this far which is crazy. idk it’s weird you never know who the people who actually make a difference in your life will be; it would have been so easy to write him off had i not bothered getting to know him. he’s a redneck, a sort of absent dad (he pays child support and knows everything ab her and supports her hobbies . he loves his daughter but. he’s gotta try harder to see her despite her living a few hours away) , he smokes cigs like a fiend, drinks beer like water, he passes out on the couch every single night of his life to dirt bike videos/sasquatch stories/random singing shows, is a typical tradesman. like it would be natural for me to judge his character based on those things. he’s actually one of the people who consistently takes my side when feminism comes up and always tells the other dudes “she’s right” etc. idk i just really am thankful to live somewhere where i’m comfortable with someone lol

& the other people i’ve met within the last year of my life have made me a better person and a happier person. somehow i really recovered a lot in the shithole where i live. dead end job, unfamiliar types of people , weird isolation. a lot of the shame i’ve carried my whole life has dissipated. i’ve been more myself than any other time in my life; and i don’t fear people’s rejection if i say what i truly believe or feel. sometimes there’s disagreements and some arguing, but it never ends badly, and weirdly i know i have peoples respect, even if they don’t agree with me or understand me. that’s what the key is i think — all my life with my family i’ve feared their rejection, their scrutiny, and their wrath. i’ve been scared to lose their love and respect because i was constantly threatened with it, and i experienced it countless times. the things the members of my immediate family have said to me, the things they’ve called me, the ways they’ve rejected me and punished me for being who i am has really damaged me and i always lived with it, bringing it into other relationships and friendships, not understanding that it was impacting literally every aspect of my life; how i interact with people being the main thing. it’s impacted my self esteem to such a degree with i could never make genuine friends and connections because i always went along with what other people said so they wouldn’t punish me. i let people treat me like dogshit because it’s what i was used to and what i thought love/acceptance costed. it even affected how i performed at work and what type of work i’ve tried to succeed at as an adult. it’s why i’m so lost and messed up and rootless. it’s why i have no idea what i want, and why for so many years i had no idea who i was.

for the first time in my life i feel accepted , if not loved. it’s enough to make me extremely emotional. it’s enough to make me happy because i could literally never imagine feeling so safe in my life. i love my parents and family but my god. what they’ve done to me can’t be reversed, though some things are beginning to repair

also i’m listening to the divorced dad playlist on spotify and it’s hitting. live laugh love!!!!

[secularbakedgoods]

random lady saw me eating my timbits and asked me where to find the tim's. i have saved a fellow tormented soul from purgatory this day.

currently banished to canadian purgatory (wandering an airport terminal, desperately searching for the tim hortons)
