#i am BEYOND words

Another one I’ve seen today from the tumblr online left: “Could you stop despair posting in spaces where a vulnerable and suicidal minority are present? A minority whose lives I gambled with this past election and wrote off because I decided that their futures weren’t that important compared to my moral purity. It’s gross.”

I am sorry. We know what’s coming. Let us weep. We have a right to cry for what has been lost and what will be lost and the suffering that is baring down on millions of people.

After you decided that this was fine, you do not get to ask us to shut up as our lives and futures are compromised.

Fuck you.

Yeah, no. I'm going on an indefinite Hiatus. In the background, I'll be writing and getting things up to date for you all, but I simply can't focus on posting and getting up to quality because of everything going on. Writing is truly in the back of my mind right now.

I'll be archiving posts on Ao3 but that's about it.

Please be safe and hold each other close. Never stop loving each other and never stop being yourself, if not out of the will to keep living then out of spite of the people waiting for us to fall.

Biggest mischaracterization people have about Stan and Ford is that Stan is the weird feral one and Ford is well put together.

Like? They are both massive weirdos, but one ran a successful business for 30 years, takes pretty decent care of two children for months, and showers regularly.

The other one fell into a situationship with a demon bc the demon called him a good boy, drank human blood just to see how it tasted, gave a child he barely knows a crossbow, and got banned from the library because he stank too bad.

Ford is "racoon with rabies" coded.

In the right moment I will come back to post and to open my heart , to tell y'all that I survived through a though time , that the "new," me is stronger than ever .

to everyone who is grieving now , if you don't know what to do with yourself, you're not alone !!

that darkness is a long road which we need to take until we see the sun again .

take as much time you need to process as I have been doing, don't pretend you're strong if you don't feel like that , don't pretend you don't need others , because we all need people. ♥️

rereading some of my favorite classic fan fics and again just so struck by the fact that mainstream fiction could never give me what you people give me every day for FREE. you're all the exact level of poetic and deranged that i'm endlessly searching for. no one is doing it like fic writers.

this might be mean but. it really ticks me off when people respond to authors and artists wishing for actual community and engagement with their works by saying "oh but you see im just so anxious i cannot offer you any kind words." with the optional "but do please keep making things for me anyway!" because like...

a) do you understand how anxiety-inducing it can be to pour a little piece of your soul into a work of art and share it publicly? i feel like you don't see the people creating these things as people like you and that is an issue. we are people who just really love a thing and want to talk about it with other people who also love that thing.

but moreover, and this is the part that might be mean, b) damn why doesn't your anxiety prevent you from making excuses to us then? i wish it did! like if you're SO anxious about a fic author blocking you for saying something nice, why are you not anxious about getting blocked for telling that author "okay but i don't want to comment on your works though"??? because i can tell you which of these two things is way more likely to piss me off and it isn't the comment.

like. idk man. if you really don't want to comment on and engage with people's creative works, no one can force you to. but also consider maybe not commenting on and engaging with those people's posts just to explain that you don't want to comment on/engage with their works. if you are so committed to staying quiet and being a passive consumer then commit to the bit and stop asking creative people who put way more of themselves out there than you are to pat you on the back and reassure you that you'll still keep getting free content even if you can't do so much as drop a "this was really good!" in the comments.

I haven't done one of this in a while but...

Obikin AU set in the regency era where Obi-Wan is a Lord too set in his own ways and who has never felt the desire to be tied down to another, happy to continue the rest of his life as a bachelor.

Despite constant pressure from his grandfather (Count Dooku) to find a spouse and have heirs, Obi-Wan is content to stay as he is. He does not want to stop his dilliances, and even enjoys the fact that they have earned him a reputation of sorts.

(Every girl who is not looking to becoming Lady Kenobi is looking for a night in his bed. And he welcomes them all, uncaring of their marital status.)

Anakin is his housekeeper's son, his pageboy, and a constant presence in his life. He doesn't need to turn around to know that Anakin is nearby, always at the corner of his eye, never out of his sight.

(Anakin loves Obi-Wan, but knows it can never happen. His Lord is too marriage-phobic for him to follow Anakin to the altar.)

Obi-Wan's life is perfect as it is, and he loathes the idea of changing a thing from it, even if it means his family name dies with him.

But then, at a masquarade ball, he meets an alluring young man who takes his breath away. They dance all night — something he never does during the Season — until the bell rings midnight and the young man runs away without looking back.

Obi-Wan becomes obsessed with finding out the identity of the man he can't stop thinking about. But, at the same time, Anakin asks for his help, wanting to learn the ways to win a noble's heart, as the younger man longs to marry and fall in love, something that doesn't sit quite right with Obi-Wan, who always taught Anakin would forever live in his house.

An addition to the cocktail chapter of the @worldsbeyondpod Unofficial Cookbook:

Honey With A Note Of Song

an absinthe wash (the green fairy, for your roots)

2 oz. rye (your liquor of choice, strong and spicy)

1/4 oz. pine and rosemary honey syrup (you cannot go home again)

1 barspoon of saline solution (for your first divine smite, where you found your breath once more)

1-2 dashes of peychauds bitters (because this is a play on a sazerac)

a grapefruit twist (a touch of the bitterness age has brought you)

serve in a glass reminiscent of a chalice

I have wanted to make a 'harvest lest' for actual months, and a friend finally pushed me into picking up the new tablet to take it for a spin - and now harv-lest sticker is real.

Harvest Moon belongs to @venomous-qwille !
