honestly. if you decided to create giant fucking corpse-head-spiders to populate your world with then this is exactly what you deserve.

(giant au) hey brad!! I know you miss being human, but what are some things you like about being giant?

(trying a different way to make comics for asks!!)

"There's actually a lot of things I like about being me! For example...

The view! The ruins of the old war are reminders of a dark past, but they create a diverse and awesome scenary. Cities without all this greenery must have been pretty boring. I see beautiful landscapes everyday! I bring my friends up here all the time so they can enjoy the view too, this makes me so happy!"

"Being me also helps to move in general. One of the biggest difficulties people face is how they will get from one settlement to another, from one supply camp to another, sometimes simply moving to a more stable and less dangerous region. Vehicles are scarce and there are dangerous animals almost everywhere outside of a stable settlement. I have no problem with this. I've gone to many places several times easily and most of the beasts don't have the courage to come near me. Migration has never been a problem"

"And of course, safety! I'm... safe, I guess? Like I said before, no animal messes with me and I'm immune to most of the diseases they carry. My skin is thick and hard to penetrate, bites and scratches do nothing. I can see clearly at night. My sense of smell makes it easy to find food..."

"No one… has the courage to try to hurt me… or get close… or talk to me… or… well... yeah..."

"... yeah, no. I'm safe. I'm definitely safe"

June 24th: The Brides: Hey, Drac, your pet, that you said we would be able to have soon, is escaping out the window. Dracula: No, that was me, I'm wearing his clothes as part of a Scheme (c). Dracula: Don't worry about it. June 25th: The Brides: *watching Jonathan carefully scale the walls* The Brides: ...There goes the Count again. That's fine.

critiquing Kamala is easy but not really helpful right now. we need to be talking about what we can do. I do not give a shit about blame, we start working now

So I decided to watch a bit of Bridgerton with my mother, which I'm not really interested in (I don't really like period pieces unless it's a fanfic for a ship I like) but it's a show she enjoys so I sometimes catch her watching it and join her, and literally the only takeaway from the stuff I've seen with her is that Colin, Lord Debling, and Penelope should have all been poly

[brown-little-robin]

I was just peacefully getting lost in reading The Next Prince novel (it's so fucking good y'all) and randomly went to check twt after finishing a chapter, only to find that not only were zonzons melting over P'Zee's Baby NuNew caption and those new photos he shared but also-- Making An Observation:

For one, I was today years old when I found out that what I'd assumed was underwear peeking out during some Day 1 performances of New's concert, was in fact a WAIST CHAIN kill me now i can't take his gorgeousness anymore 😭🔫

And then zonzons went-- Hey wait. We know there were two birthday gifts from P'Zee and we've only found out about the necklace so far ... and New likes to show off his presents by wearing them for special occasions ...

...and the waist chain says Baby

I've been thinking about Imelda's complete faith and investment in the Trust, and how it allows her to twist anything For The Good Of The Trust, like she full on tortured a guy. It also comes up in these small ways - the hypocrisy runs deep AND it's on the surface plain as day.

The first time she meets Weepe she asks him if a tearror did something to him and then chastises Penny for doing the same. Of course, she's probably also attempting to deflect conversation and speculation away from "how did the Tripotentiary get like that" because she contributed to it, but underlying it is this: "it's totally fine for me to be intrusive and rude but you can't be".

And she could so easily justify why she asked, and why it's good to know about the backstory of people you're bringing into the Trust, and she was asking for her own safety! Imagine if "that kind of thing" could happen on Midst if you didn't have the right light bulbs! The horror!

But like....

Not to get into it on main but it's really reminding me of white American suburban Christianity and how manners are treated as this paramount virtue, while at the same time people are nice without being kind, and the way the hypocrisy is just swept under the rug and pointing out inconsistencies is taboo. And how people with power can get away with anything, from impoliteness to abuse.
