What do you think about MousyNona (same username on Tumblr and AO3)? I love their RadioApple fics but I wanna know what you think and whether it sticks to the stereotype of manly top Al/girly bottom LuLu.

If it's all the same, I'm not that comfortable seeking out specific fans to give my thoughts about them or their writing, particularly if they're not personally asking for feedback or my opinions on their writing - it makes me feel icky.

But if you love their RadioApple fics, it shouldn't matter what I think, anyway. Whether or not it sticks to the manly!top Al and girly!bottom Luci stereotype, if you enjoy it, enjoy it! :3 Let them know how much you like their fics, I'm sure they'd love to hear it!

looking at (vetted) gofundmes for people trying to escape palestine and i don't know how many of you actually click on the gofundme links you reblog but i would like to point out, for what it's worth, just how amazing it is that so many have raised so much money. it may overall feel like a drop in the ocean but the fact that several gofundmes have raised tens of thousands of dollars is amazing. it is so expensive to leave gaza right now, and people still need money after they escape. but regardless of what propaganda the US, UK, canada, and other western nations are trying to pump out, people across the world are doing what they can to help these people survive. many of them are still very far from their goals (like this one and this one and this one) and some of them are very close to high goals (like this one), and some of them have reached almost double their original goal.

and that's not even addressing direct aid or organizations that take continuous donations for distribution of food, menstrual products, etc. the PCRF has raised $16,000,000 of their target goal of $20,000,000 to fund current aid and long-term relief efforts in gaza. ANERA's febuary 13th update discusses the material ways they helped palestinians today:

(ANERA donate link)

my point is, it often feels like the world is turning a blind eye to palestine. but i would like to point out that there is an important difference between "the world" and "western political leaders and media narratives". a breathtaking amount of real people, the people who make up the world, are trying to help. in the face of israel attempting to commit genocide, the world is saying No. These people deserve to live. and literally sending millions of dollars internationally, through the internet connection that israel has desperately been trying to destroy.

it may not feel like it matters in the grand scheme of things. but to the people who get fresh clothes, or a hot meal, or blankets, or the kids who get new toys, or to the people who are able to bring their families to safety, it matters to them. go make someone's day better. i've linked so many options with ways to do that.

all queer discourse could be stopped if we all just remembered that in the eyes of conservative fascists we're all dirty queers polluting their kids minds who need to be eradicated at all costs

i know ryoko kui is a real one because she wrote 97+ chapters of a manga about fantasy ecosystems and food chains and not once did she write the phrase "survival of the fittest" (it's a bad phrase) (it's a social darwinist phrase even) (hated amongst biologists) (doesn't make sense) (darwin didn't use it) (coined by an business major) (one of the worst phrases in pop science) (no good)

Hey y'all, now is a particularly good time to show solidarity with the Haitian refugee community of Ohio by donating to groups working on their behalf like The Haitian Bridge Alliance or Advocates for Basic Legal Equity.

The Republican goons are trying to stir up a racist hate mob against them based on extremely sinister lies. To hell with the sorts of people who want racist violence and for those of us nowhere near Ohio, this sort of donation is a decent way of telling both the Haitian community and their tormentors that we have the backs of refugees.

Being a “Fun Fact !” kind of autistic is all fun and games until you get halfway through sharing an interesting tidbit and realize that it probably wasn’t appropriate to share in polite company and now you have to deal with the consequences :(

A New Chapter -> [Self Para]

In which Elinor decides on a career change...[takes place: idk probably throughout January]

-> -> ->

“Dammit,” Elinor hissed under her breath as she hung up her phone. 

“Is everything alright?” Belle appeared at her elbow. She just happened to be there, it wasn’t like she was actually concerned. Elinor and Belle had entered into a tepid truce, but neither of them liked the other all that much. Belle thought Elinor was some close-minded idiot, as she had made very clear when Elinor had just arrived in town. Elinor found Belle abrasive and impolite. (Two of the greatest slights, according to Elinor.) 

“Yes, fine. It is just more contractors,” Elinor replied as if she was swatting a fly away. 

“Contractors?”

“Yes, we need part of the castle roof replaced.” 

“Really? Where?” Belle’s brows knit together.

“Above the East Wing. There is still damage from the demon storm that hasn’t been fixed.”
