#but seriously please do reblog!

[labyrynth]

in the spirit of pettiness statistics, i wanted to make my own version of that biased poll from the other day so that we can have OUR OWN completely inconclusive results!

Please consider reblogging, since lots of people don’t check main/character tags!

[piningpercussionist]

Okay. Fellas. Real talk. I've seen some of you do it and I thank you profusely for doing so but can yall PLEASE credit the original artist of that piece yall kinda made into an a dtiys/art meme? That's not official art. I am point blank refusing to engage with any of these pieces that I see not doing such. (Even when it pains me to keep scrolling, because some of them are really good!! And I want them here!!! But I do have some rules for myself I try to stand firm by with this blog.)

Like you can literally see them say right there that it's fine IF YOU CREDIT. I'm fucking begging you.

I'm not mad at anyone who didn't know but I've seen SO MANY versions at this point, and I think I've seen maybe 3 or 4 of them RECENTLY include the credit. (And one with improper credit, I think?) Please. Please just. Tack it on.

Made the mistake of trying to go through the sam winchester tag again- there is so much d*stiel (censoring bc I don't want this post to end up on their tag) if you're lucky sam will be in the back just standing there or god forbid he's their 1# shipper for some fucking reason and that's it for like every ten posts.

Anyways can we all tag properly please and thank you.

All right. So, first: if you are either Jewish, like His Dark Materials, or both, please reblog. If you aren't any of those but know someone who is - please share it with them. I want to get as many thoughts on this as possible.

In essence, I just want to ask two simple questions. I have the beginnings of answers for myself, but Judaism is nothing if not full of discourse and many opinions on one topic. So, again: reblog. Share your thoughts and opinions. Hopefully, it will give us a wide variety of possibilities and answers.

The two questions are: where are Jews in Lyra's world? And what are the theological and Halachic concequences of having dæmons?

I intend to share my opinions in two separate reblogs, but please share your thoughts even if you don't see mine. The short version is that I looked about events in Jewish history around John Calvin's time for the first question (pope John Calvin being the major alternation of history in HDM). As for the second question - I have some thoughts relating to the Chabad thought stream. Elaborations, again, going in reblogs.

Thank you in advance!

(PS, question number 1 was handled once by the sadly deactivvated user the Tea Detective, though their full post disappeared. Link to a reblogging of the first half: here. Note, another reblog mentions other religions - feel free to discuss them, I'm focusing on Judaism because I'm Jewish. Another post asking this question was posted here, so have fun with it. Meanwhile, this post is about dæmons and religions in general and lightly touches Judaism.)

in lieu of having posted any writing/headcanons/asks in the past few days because i have been *so* busy and unable to do anything fandom-related which is terrible and evil, i have a poll out of morbid curiosity and self-indulgence. i've been meaning to ramble here about how i feel about DC's lack fo Deaf representation and which Batfam members i would personally make Deaf, but i am mildly curious about the larger opinion and now i will subject you all to the question, i would love to hear thoughts/opinions/headcanons on any specific choices. (would love d/Deaf/HoH opinions esp but i'm mostly expecting this to reach the hearing crowd, so opinions from hearing ppl are ones i'm very curious about. if you've never given it thought before you are going to now or else /lh)

you asked for this

Characters: refer to fic tags

Words: 42k (on-going)

Warnings: refer to fic tags

Techno breaks Dream out of prison. But what even Dream barely remembers is that prison was much more grotesque than he thought it was.

Awesamdude and Quackity stress out about how to get their runaway toy back, without alerting the entire server of the abuse that was going on inside those walls. All while Tommy fears the very monster he still has in memory.

A slow-burn DNB fic, very centric on characterization and gruesome sexuality.

Chapter 1: grasping at the little I control.

Chapter 2: that meant good, that meant right.

Chapter 3: the kindest thing is to never leave you alone.

Chapter 4: trust me, just like I trust you.

Chapter 5: one foot in front of the other.

a c!dnb fic ! heavily wip. extremely graphic, please read the tags.

HELLO??

Fully blindsided right now & still processing the situation as I type this

My employer of 4 years, who has always been honest with me (sometimes to a concerning degree) has just let me know quite suddenly that she does not have the money to pay me for my last 2 weeks of work.

.

It's not totally out of the blue, I knew the company was struggling in an expand-or-die sort of way, but she's been reassuring me for months that she had investors lined up etc etc and that she'd let me know well ahead of time if I needed to start looking for another job.

.

Timesheets for the second half of September were due on the 1st-- mine totaled up to nearly full time at 19/hr. Typically payroll goes through within a couple of days or we at least hear an update. Crickets.

My internet bill was due yesterday; the charge hit my closed bank account and bounced. I was barely expecting to be able to cover my existing overdue and anticipated expenses with the paycheck i believed was coming. I reached out via text to ask for an update:

I have in fact been looking for another job-- at least on the side to make me feel more secure and allow me to live more comfortably-- but no one wants a gardener in the winter, or a gardener who can't drive, for that matter, and I hadn't begun to start looking for the sort of work from home admin job she had me doing.

.

She's been like a weird family member to me for ages now, and yet she let me do all that work the last couple weeks, knowing she couldn't pay me for it, without saying a damn word. I have emails from her asking for me to do more for her as recently as yesterday. No mention of oh btw it's gonna be volunteer labor for now. I'm feeling heartbroken and betrayed; she was one of the few 'adult' figures in my life I genuinely felt I could count on.

.

I'll double down and figure something out-- but, in the meantime, I'm SO fucked and I really need your help. Please please at least reblog this for a boost, and if you have even an extra dollar I'd be tremendously grateful if you sent it my way.

Dm for paypal or evidence of debts/bills/expenses and shit if you want it, I can't psychologically tolerate trying to dig it all up right this second

meeting white people who bitch and moan about immigration is very funny because I hit them with the "so you think my dad shouldn't be here?" and if that doesn't work I hit them with the "so what does that make your ancestors?"

and then if they're still angry I just sit back and let them talk themselves in circles

i had the most infuriating interaction on twitter. so i want to have more productive and interesting conversations about homestuck now. tell me things you find unique or interesting with homestuck's writing/characters/themes etc! or tell me criticisms you have about it, its character choices or writing choices, etc! (pls dont come in to just say act 6 is bad or vriska did nothing wrong etc ! you can have those opinions but i want to spark conversations and debates around new and interesting topics or topics that don't get brought up as much!!) ALSO PLS NO HS2 i just want to talk about Homestuck as it is because i think there's still so much to dissect and explore!

[poolboyservice]

I drew irl scar for the first time for new years

Kinda proud of him especially because it was a quick one and quick is not my usual

I’m not used to drawing cats and I didn’t have refs so the kitties look a little less like Katy Finn and jellie and more like randoms but that’s okay <3

Have a wonderful 2025 everyone!

"I need to learn how to draw dudes" turned into "I need to draw things for this AU that lives in my head because I have a Tumblr I can post them to now."... But yeah..silly little basically a comfort AU that lives rent-free in my head, and is taking up plenty of space there, in which "Protecting the Travelers of The Night." translates into a completely other thing entirely (One of our moon boys starts what's similar to a group home but..not.) and...now these exist. It's silly and is based off a dream I had while I was..not doing great (hence 'comfort AU') but..eh, it makes me happy. (I won't lie, I'm hesitant to even post this.)

Steven typically fronts when the younger kids want to play, whereas Marc typically fronts when it comes to handling older kids/teenagers - especially those who are a bit more..closed off - and Jake..is here I haven't really figured much out for him yet.

Closing thought, the hardest thing of these to draw was 'someone doing something other than standing' and Jake's flat cap for..some reason.

in summary: men are too emotional for leadership roles. men are too easily swayed by their in-the-moment impulses to make good decisions. men's brains are not built for stressful or intellectual tasks. men are not competent enough to make decisions by themselves. a man's role is to be in the house barefoot and pregnant making brownies for the guests, it is his natural place and he should not deviate from it

[unloneliest]

the A in LGBTQIA2S+ stands for asexual and aromantic, yes. this absolutely is not a post arguing against that. but it is absolutely, critically vital that the A does also stand for ally. the plausible deniability that ally being a part of the acronym offers closeted people is a necessity. it's a matter of safety.

OH NO GUYS!! TOO MUCH BOOPING!!!
