average tumblr user makes 10 polls a year. actually just a statistical error. average tumblr user makes zero polls per year. polls georg (you) who makes over 10000 polls a day is an outlier and should not have been counted.

HOW DARE!

[meyhew]

so i also have no one to talk station 19 with so i hope it’s ok that i keep coming here…*nervous laughter* anyway, thoughts on krista vernoff and her (finally) stepping down as showrunner?

PLEASE. u can literally pop in any time i promise it's never a bother. and full disclosure i honest to god don't keep track of behind the scenes stuff like that butttt i hope it means peace n love on planet earth for vic and jack. i can't comment on vernoff because i dont know anything about her but as a showrunner i'd imagine she had a fair amount of say in their storylines and i hope to god those change. end of season 6 brought in jack's family so hopefully the new person will focus on that and allow him space to heal and grow with them. although i dont know how the strike will affect what happens going forward and honestly i wouldn't be entirely surprised if the quality declines

Non-Exhaustive List of Soulmate Fics: Polin

Okay, I'm bored so I'm compiling my favorite soulmate fics. Here's the Polin edition:

These Days Will Fade Out by noveltyromance

Summary:

Penelope walked in and inspected the silvery words embedded on her skin. She really did meet her soulmate. It wouldn’t have turned colors if he was not hers. “So he said your words,” she mumbled softly to herself in the mirror, “but you didn’t say his.” It only meant one thing. Colin was her soulmate. But she wasn’t his.

tend my garden by runimpossiblegirl

Summary:

The forget-me-not on Penelope´s upper left arm had appeared when she was just sixteen. [Orinally posted with 5700 words on 31/12. Now updated to final version with 6900 and extra Colin POV on 01/01]

i'll use you as a warning sign by TheSushiMonster

Summary:

The words on his body sound like Lady Whistledown. His soulmate - the person meant to capture his body and heart, his partner and love of his life - ruins lives. Perhaps it makes sense that she’s already ruined his. - Or, soulmate AU where the words you write show up on your soulmate's skin.

i might lose everything if i lose the pain by frankchurchillsaysrelax

Summary:

Based on the prompt: On your 18th birthday you get a soul mark - one that would be identical to your soulmates. Colin is devastated that his does not match Marina’s. Trying to lighten up his mood days later - his brothers teasingly console him by saying that Penelope could get his mark when she turns 18 and that’s when she overhears him say that he would never marry her because he didn't think she's his soulmate. And as is Penelope's life a couple years later she gets an identical mark. Now she plans to hide it because she can’t handle his disappointment.

Give Me All The Pain (Give Me Everything) by wasteddarlinglover

Summary:

Penelope Featherington's soulmate hated her. She was alright with that. She hated him just as much. The only reason for their bond to exist was to bring each other pain. Colin Bridgerton's soulmate gave up on him years ago. He was not worthy of love and patience that their bond required. He learned to accept that and move on with his life. When two broken souls are brought together, Penelope and Colin find hope. Neither one of them can be with their soulmate, but maybe they can build something remarkable together. If they manage to let go of the pain, maybe they could even let themselves fall in love.

All the Time in the World by dontmakemeover

Summary:

All ladies of the Ton are instructed by their Queen to implant a TiMER on their wrists when they enter society at age 16. It is the truest and best way to find a Soulmate, with the TiMER counting down until the first time they will meet. Countless marriages have started this way (with at least a few of them ending the same way!) But Penelope Featherington does not highly rate this technology, for when her TiMER was implanted, the screen was blank. And what's more, she has seen the timer of the man she would like to be her true love, Colin Bridgerton, and knows that whoever her soulmate truly is, his is not her.

Latibule by The_Readers_Muse

Summary:

It was said you would be drawn to your one. That was the only advantage you had.

For the Both of Us by logogram

Summary:

A conversation with Fife and Cho leaves Colin wondering whether Penelope is his soulmate. Unfortunately, she seems to have become stubbornly attached to her gloves.

And So the Yandere Met the Bonnet Assassin by Seaowl

Summary:

There was a reason Violet was so hell bent to see all eight of her children married. The most valuable things to them are their soulmates and the family is told all their life that you are to do anything to protect and keep your soulmate. Lie, cheat, kill, frame, anything is on the table. The family that is so big on love that they become quite possessive of those who marry in, even if it is the soulmate of one of their siblings.

i'm the lock and you're the key by TheSushiMonster

Summary:

Penelope is ready to move on. Pining after Colin Bridgerton requires too much energy, too much of her soul. Penelope wants to find her soulmate, but maybe that may not be Colin after all. But… perhaps one last effort is necessary to completely eliminate Colin from her heart and mind. - Or, the “you must sleep with someone to determine if they’re your soulmate” AU.

Would I Lie To You? by LightLeadingMe

Summary:

It has been said and even written that true soulmates cannot lie to one another. They simply were unable to. Not even a small fib could be said to the person. Penelope began to resign herself to the fact that she'd never meet her soulmate, but then she ran (quite literally) into Colin Bridgerton.

Soulmarks by Seaowl

Summary:

Colin has found his soulmate, now he just has to find out who she is.

just let me adore you by TheSushiMonster

Summary:

Colin Bridgerton falls off his horse at age twenty-one and laughs. It’s a full-body laugh, bright and bold and gut-wrenching, as if his soul is finally free. Then he feels a burn across his left bicep, just beside his shoulder and when he inspects his skin, the outline of a detailed feather stares back at him. - Or, now that Colin knows Penelope is his soulmate, he vows to make her laugh in his presence so she can be his too. Or, the role reversal soulmate AU.

EMERGENCY🚨Help a new mother and her baby find food, medical care, and safety

Suad Ahmad is an engineer from Gaza. She graduated from university at the top of her class and was rapidly excelling in her career as an instructor, consultant, and team leader.

Suad, her husband, and their family were overjoyed to find out she was pregnant. Sadly, this was only a week before occupation began its illegal scorched earth campaign against the people of Gaza. Suad's home (left) and workplace (right) were destroyed, and she and her husband's family were displaced from the north.

After building a scaffolding structure for their family in the supposed “safe area” in Rafah (left), the occupation attacked the city and forced their evacuation. Suad and her family were then displaced to Deir al-Balah, where they procured a tent (right). As you can see, these are small, vulnerable structures, completely exposed to the elements. They were exposed to multiple disease vectors while also being unable to procure enough food. During this time, Suad became extremely sick with gastroenteritis, a dangerous condition during pregnancy.

On the day she went into labor, Suad had to walk a great distance to the hospital. Upon arrival, she found that the hospital was operating at bare minimal capacity. There was not even a bed for her to use. Suad’s baby was born with minimal medical support, and the ordeal was extremely difficult. The occupation then began bombing the vicinity of the hospital. Suad and her baby were in immense danger, with nowhere to turn.

Unfortunately, the situation has only gotten worse. Suad and her infant are now living in a tent in extreme heat. IOF attacks continue, putting their lives in immediate danger. The occupation’s blockade on Rafah Crossing and the destruction of roads and infrastructure has led to increased, extreme food scarcity. Suad cannot find enough food to feed herself or her baby. She has not been able to recover from the difficult birth, and her baby is missing out on crucial nutrition needed for neonatal development.

Suad has had a campaign open for several weeks, raising support so that she, her husband, and her husband’s mother and sister could evacuate to Egypt. Sadly, progress has been slow. She was unable to collect the necessary resources to evacuate before the occupation illegally seized Rafah Crossing, the only border crossing that would enable evacuation.

However, international pressure continues to mount on the occupation to depart the crossing. Once they do, Suad and her baby need to be able to evacuate to Egypt for their health and safety. You can help make this possible by directly supporting them at the link below.

Please, help give Suad and her baby a better chance at life. If you cannot give, please reblog this post and repost the link▶️ (https://gofund.me/ebaee2af) across all of your social media accounts.

sorry, i didn’t know who else to ask, but where is all the sudden cheating panic coming from? i feel like i blinked and we went from eddie playing doctor with a printer to buck shoving his tongue down the new girl’s throat. what happened? did someone say something?

Well, they dropped a new promo that shows Lucy and Buck kissing in the bar, but a) it looks like she kisses him first, b) they’re all clearly drinking pretty heavily, c) the man’s been spinning out in the grips of a severe mental health crisis for months and is self destructive and primed to blow up his life, shit happens 🤷🏼‍♀️

I personally think it’s all going to be delicious.

"Just come home."

“Just come home,” Sanders said, voice the same grumpy cadence it always was, but somehow softer, lower. “Come on kid.”

Michael looked up at him,Sanders’ truck idling in the background while his battered blue truck miles back at the junkyard, before he looked back at his battered hand. He knew, if he unwrapped the pilfered bandages, that his hand would be mangled, still covered in blood from the night before. Michael couldn’t say anything. What could he say after the long, awful night before? He stood up and followed Sanders to his truck.

[glassesandkim]

do you watch station 19? we just binged the whole show and now i have no one to talk to about it lol. the whole tag and ao3 are filled with stuff i don’t care about 🥺

No not really :( I only watched season 1 and recently, episode 12 of season 4 which was FREAKIN AH-MAZING!!!!!!!!!!!! Damn. That was such a good episode. But ya, that ep made me want to continue watching which is what I’ll probably start doing soon.

I was telling @orthoglasses how amazing that episode was and she was like, “What if I told you that it’s this good ALL the time??” 😱😱😱

[gilbertandanne]

so are you watching this season of ahs? and if you are, thoughts?

Tbh, I haven’t seen one second of it, Christine! AHS Stories or Double Feature. Idk if it’s just because I’m finally starting to settle down in my new house and life is slowly returning to normal or what but neither one has been on my radar.

Having said that: have you?? Is it any good?

[mistchievous]

hi jess!! hope you’re enjoying this spooky season (whooooo👻) mwah!

Hi, Christine darling! I'm working a lot trying to make ends meet, so I'm tired like all the time. But I'm doing okay outside of that!

Missing lobby kitten, but my brother's cat had a litter of her own. And the girl I took in really wanted one, so we took one home. Her name is Jackie! She's a black cat! That's spooky, right? 🥰

[bestillmyslashyheart]

34 for Malex? Gimme all that flangsty goodness?

34. “You come to my room and wake me up at 4am, to cuddle?”

Alex heard the knock on the door and promptly ignored it. It was too early, or late, to let people annoy him. It didn’t matter, though, as he heard the latch click open a moment later.

“Alex?” Michael whispered loudly, his voice a harsh thing in the still night.

Alex turned over and put his back to Michael before shoving his head under the pillow. Whatever new emergency there was could wait until the sun came up. Or even later as far as he was concerned.

The door clicked shut softly and the deadbolt engaged. Next thing he knew there was a thump as two shoes were kicked off into the wall followed immediately by the familiar sounds of jeans being dragged down to the floor. In spite of himself, Alex opened his eyes and pulled the pillow off to look at Michael.

The man was half naked already and tugging his shirt off over his head.

“What?” Alex rasped, his voice rough with sleep. Michael just grinned and lifted the edge of the blanket. Well, he tried to at least. Alex slapped a hand down on the bed and pinned the comforter so he couldn’t pull it back. “What?”

Michael’s grin faltered. “I couldn’t sleep.”

Alex glanced at the alarm clock, the large 4:02 blinking at him in bright red. “You come to my room and wake me up at 4am, to cuddle?”

Michael blinked. “Yeah,” he answered easily.

Alex stared at him before relenting. Immediately the grin was back as Michael slid beneath the sheets and crowded up next to Alex. Wordlessly, Alex let Michael arrange them to his liking. 

When Alex was flat on his back with a literal space heater curled up on his chest and warm thigh pressed between his own, he asked, “are you good?” Michael nodded into his chest and placed a small kiss on his sternum. “Can I go back to sleep now?”

He felt Michael’s smile on his skin. “If you insist.”

who are your station 19 ships? i’m a jack/andy truther. (feel free not to answer publicly if you don’t want to put out spoilies for the newbs)

i'm right there with u <3 i have to admit i've always liked jack & maya's dynamic even though it's not Healthy bc they're both masters at self destructing but they're just delicious to me. however we have marina endgame i think and that's fine i dont mind it. jack and andy have always been close since the beginning and they Know each other. jack's been there for andy through the worst and andy has obviously never left jack on his own for Too long. i'd be thrilled to see them together tbh i think it'd be a nice full circle moment

i dont care for any of vic's relationships so far except for ripley 😔 i fear that standard was set so high it's really difficult to outdo it. so i would prefer a single vic for a while 🫶🏽 hopefully travis won't get his heart broken next season we havent seen that relationship romantically much yet but eye like them together so i hope it lasts a while if not forever <3

[pleasepleaseeplease]

how are you liking one tree hill so far? any favorites?

This show has so much drama I love it. Right now I'm on episode 16 of season 1. My favorites so far are Haley, Brooke, Lucas and Peyton. I'm starting to like Nathan more than I did in the first half. I hate how Lucas and Peyton treated Brooke. She deserves much better. I really hate Dan
