Beauty of the eco which no body could never give up on...

[sorcerersandskillusers]

The fact that tumblr doesn't know about this bird is a tragedy that I have to fix

this is a Sri Lankan frogmouth, you can hear them pretty often at night and I've seen at least one in the wild. Every single picture of them is iconic

Their eyes are so human

The moon was a crescent, thin and sharp as the blade of a knife. The moon was fat and full. The moon was a black hole in the sky. The moon was a crescent, thin and sharp as the blade of a knife.

The Sri Lankan mainstream media and foreign media repeatedly calling AKD a "Marxist" reminds me of this old tweet:

AKD and NPP is a lot more left than any USAmerican party because even their current fairly tame socialism evolved from a Marxist insurgency in the '80s and South Asia has a socialist bedrock. And I'm praying he won't turn out to be a disappointment like Biden and will actually hold some of these corrupt yahoos to account. But they're very much establishment liberals. "Marxist"—bitch they wouldn't pass muster with a Tumblr Tankie, sit down. 😂

Hi! I'm new to Tumblr and to Virtue/Moir content (I have never shipped anyone before but ever since I clicked on that 2018 Olympic free dance while scrolling down my YouTube recs, I'm in love with their relationship. It's very different from relationships that we usually witness in pop culture. There's so much love and such a strong mutual understanding between them which I haven't seen in many people. I 'm not going to call it platonic because it's much deeper than that. I'm Sri Lankan so Winter sports (let alone ice dance) were never discussed growing up. Honestly, I didn't even know that pair skating is different from ice dance until a few weeks ago, lol. I was so confused.

I'm not really interested in watching ice dance because they're not competing anymore😭 although I watched a few of Papadakis/Cizeron, Donhoe/Hubbel, Poje/Weaver routines. P/C are great (Love their flowy style but I'm not an expert to judge) but nobody can replace V/M. They were something else. When I watched Tessa and Scott Skate for the first time, I honestly thought they were married. That's how good they were at it. There's this inexplicable soulmate energy between which I haven't seen in many people. It's so rare!

So, all I want to ask is if there's anything I should know about them? Maybe little endearing details about them which you adore and want new fans to know ❤️

Hi lovely..

Sorry this has taken a bit to get back to.

I’m obsessed with your takes on VM, and you bring things up that I’ve always felt about them but couldn’t put into words.

I’m the same as you, I really don’t care about the sport removed from vm, when I do watch skating it is mostly older competitions/competitors from VM’s era and earlier. I still keep mildly up to date but mostly just to complain about how no one is as good as vm and the sport has gone to mostly shit since they retired 😅.

I was a little stumped when I first read this and thinking about which of VM’s universe amount if endearing qualities to specifically point out..

The thing I love most I think this is how kind they are to each other.. OBVIOUSLY they have had hard times throughout their 27+year relationship, some of which is well documented/they spoken about and other small disagreements that literally every person in any relationship experiences.. but throughout their career and relationship post- skating is just how enormously clear the deeper then deep level of care they have for each other is and will always have and the beautiful ways they express it. Some examples: The Hug.. beyond the ritualistic need for them to do it pre-skate it is just the most heart melting thing to witness and think about. Wanting to be an extension of and synchronised with each other in every way. The way they hold hands.. there’s so much car ens security in not using station al dance hold as is custom on ice, it’s an expression of just wanting to be as close as possible al the time. They way they look into each others eyes so intently and with such empathy and understanding.

There is soooooo much more but this would be to long

Some of my fave stories:

Scott leaving a bucket full to the brim of rice at T’s door step before a world championships to ensure her of all the work they had put in to becoming the best in the world- T says this is the best present she’s ever been given

How T was there for Scott during their first few comeback comps where one of his closest friends suddenly passed away, Scott recalling how T was the only safe space and literally holding her hand and looking in her eyes was the only thing that kept him from completely falling apart.

How they support each other after failures (there’s heaps of evidence of this) and praise each other in triumphs.

Most of all I think how they would none of what they have if not for each other and how eternally grateful they are for having met and they life they have shared they wouldn’t give up for anything!

No one knows where it comes, reason of starting but for a purpose which even She is not aware. She is as She is, aiding for repairs and collecting values of beauty. She will fall and gives life for kids despite of hers with no divisions. Thats her calling from GOD to serve the world.

the most important thing in tumblr that hits you hard like a high speed train

Writeblr Intro

*Edited I am still bad at introductions haha

Hello! Ayubowan! Konnichiwa!

So, who am I? What does it mean to live? What does 'I' mean? Calm down… Wrong community, ah idk…

The name's Riveen, just Riveen. That is my real name.

Pronouns are he/him and a teen.

MBTI says I am INFJ but it said I was ENFJ too, I am a customisable personality, haha. (Buy one get one free)

Bookie and nerd.

STEM student (the Astrophysics kind), but also into literature and other stuff of the mortals.

Content in my site or here (as in Tumblr)

Side-blog for WIP world @scalmropia

I am crazy and WILL NOT limit my blog for writing. I will post random stuff or repost irrelevant stuff. And I stole post templates from people so credit to them!

I am also open for asks and tags.

If I am not boring enough yet, you can read more below the cut.

I am Sri Lankan and speak Sinhala so I might and will rant 'how good it is'. Like for example, it has 60 letters (18 vowels, 2 sounds, 40 consonants). මේ භාෂාව ඉගෙනගන්න, එතකොට හොඳයි!!!

Also, I am weird. So, if you need to talk about the end of the universe, quantum model, how rubies and sapphires are related, why 'conversation' had a weirder meaning in old English, or what the Montevideo convention is, I am your guy.

Also hit me up if you find a random body or gets possessed by a ghost. But beware of me, I like to day dream a lot.

So, my work…?

I tend to write some dark stuff, mostly horror. But I also write some 'nice' stuff too. Prose and poetry. Much of works are here, but I would also update a list at the end of this.

My current WIPs include The Star Child, a story about a father and his adopted daughter; an unnamed political rom com set in Sri Lanka and a Sherlock Holmes fan fiction.

I love myself a big fictional world and I have some ideas, will update when that becomes a thing

Hopefully I will get published.

What have I put out?

i finished reading the saint of bright doors by vajra chandrasekera. it's really good, i recommend it. it takes place in a fictional world that is fully 2023-modern but at the same time full of ancient magic and mystical cults and fantastical spirituality and these two things meld in fascinating and unique ways. i've never read anything like it. the author is sri lankan and the book is heavily south asian and the author's radical politics bleed through in a way i didn't expect from mainstream western publishing. it's really good and dreamlike and unique. i recommend it a lot

all this was a lead-in to say that i first heard of that book in a tumblr ad that advertised it with the tagline "Fetter was raised to kill, honed as a knife to cut down his sainted father. This gave him plenty to talk about in therapy." and i immediately thought it was going to be some kind of glib ironic self-aware urban fantasy thing like you'd see in a writeblr wip intro post (sorry to writeblr). i thought "well the rest of the premise sounds interesting so i might give it a read but i don't expect much from that tagline. it'll probably disappoint me" and when i saw it in my local library (with that same tagline heading the summary) i thought the same thing and took it home with that sort of feeling in my heart. and then almost from the first sentence i was proven completely wrong. the tone is very poetic and classical and the fact that he's in group therapy for failed prophets is barely even relevant and only functions to establish some worldbuilding and get him to meet various plot-important characters. i hate book marketing teams because this is one of my favorite books of the year already and i almost passed on it because they made it sound insufferable
