#but i think about it sometimes

Somebody stop me before I conceptualize individual titles and mini summaries for some of Croft's books.

It has been brought to my attention that I have not publicly talked about Ockham and religion.

The Ackerman family did not flee when Spain took over the region and the Inquisition pushed out the Jewish community, but instead went into hiding. Over the generations, a lot of their traditions remained, but the context behind it was often lost. This was something that his parents deliberately did not share with the children until they would be old enough to maintain that secrecy. There were some tells, however, ones that he would have never noticed were atypical at the time, and only discovered far after the fact, long after he fell into the sea and Ockham left the Is Not.

Things like the bread sausages his family would make, the overnight stews on Saturdays, how his parents would touch the bare door frame when they walked into the house never pinged as unusual. Never something worth mentioning to anyone.

It's likely that his brother eventually knew, the sibling who stayed home, especially after Flanders fell under French control and things loosened up a bit, but when the cholera epidemic claimed most of their family and his brother no longer wanted to speak to him, that information was lost.

It’s so funny that people are low key worried about dappers admin being on tumblr like tubblings haven’t had the fact that tubbo has a secret tumblr account in the back of their minds for years

Sometimes I see the little drabble fics challenges and I always think that I'd like to try my hand at writing something again because, hey, I have a filthy mind and it's been almost 20 years since i wrote my first and only fanfic. I could probably handle writing something small like that.

But then I panic and feel the fanfic world is like a party with all the cool girls that I wasn't invited to. So they're going to make me feel awful about it like it's high school all over again and I end up in the bathroom with their dog all night.

Shockwave came to mind first. Maybe he's been working in the lab for long hours in the night, and it didn't really hit him that he had to go until the last moment— in fact it hit him too late :)

Another scenario that graced my mind was what if we forced Megatron to piss himself at the end of a long meeting. He nearly made it, too! Nearly, anyway.

Something Starscream. I don't know what but I need the jet to squirm, and for Thundercracker and Skywarp to look at him like "???"

i don't poke around fandom very much and i think. my issue is i don't want people to think poorly of me but i also know i have a lot of unsavory kinks that i post about very publicly and often without much warning that i use my favorite little guys as a proxy for. mostly this is fine with me, i know people who like it will gravitate towards my stuff and people who don't won't, i just talk myself in anxious circles about it sometimes.

It's eczema flare up season aka the season to slather gummy concoctions on my knuckles, care for my inner child and gently ask why she was trying to claw her way out of our skin

[inkskinned]

please i love you i'm begging you bring back suspension of disbelief bring back trusting the audience like. i cannot handle any more dialogue that sounds like a legal document. "hello, i am here to talk to you about the incident from a few minutes ago, because i feel you might be unwell, and i am invested in your personal wellbeing." "thank you, i am unwell because the incident was hurtful to me due to my childhood, which was bad." I CANT!!!!

do you know how many people are mad that authors use "growled" as a word for "said"? it's just poetics! they do not literally mean "growled," it's just a common replacement for "said with force but in a low tone." it's normal! do you hear me!! help me i love you please let me out of here!!!

i think we should remind musicians they can absolutely make up little stories for their songs btw. it doesn’t have to be about them at all. you can invent a guy and put him in situations to music. time honoured tradition in fact.

But I raise you the tag “ no beta we die like [Character] SHOULD HAVE”

My favorite ao3 tag is and always will be “no beta we die like [character that dies in canon]”

i'll let phie-san say it:

If my mom sees a significant amount of blood she gets lightheaded, and has fainted on some occasions. Once it happened when we were kids, I wasn't there to witness it but I heard the story from my dad. Basically my brothers, around 7 or 8 at the time, were playing outside while my mom was making their lunch, and she accidentally cut her finger. It wasn't anything serious, but it drew a fair bit of blood and she passed out. My dad saw this and rushed over, but he didn't really know what to do so he just sort of started slapping her to wake her up (not recommended, but he had no idea and panicked)

At that exact moment my brothers both came in from playing, and all they saw was our mom unconscious on the floor and our dad slapping her. So, like, without even saying a word to each other they both just INSTANTLY start whaling on him, like, full blown attack mode to defend our mom. Which obviously didn't help the situation, but she did wake up and everything was fine.

Now our dad says that he's actually really glad they attacked him over what they thought was going on, because it means he raised good boys. And I still think that's true, they're very good boys.
