Keep The Home Fires Burning
This song is one of my favourite wartime songs and always brings a tear to my eye. We owe so much to that generation. I feel this song was very fitting for our beloved Easy Company

it's motivated by the need to keep people 'moving to new content' to consume.
I hate that planned obsolescence is starting to reach fandoms. I hate that fandoms are starting to die after two, three years, I hate that whenever you stop getting content that means the fandom will die and be gone.
I need people to stop trying to brush off old interests as being 'cringe' as soon as you lose interest, or worse: make it seem like it's imoral to like something that they themselves held so dear before.
Fandoms are meant to last for years and years, the moment content stops being created is the moment we truly thrive because we keep creating the content ourselves the way we love it and expand on the things that are already there for us.
I don't care if you lost interest on something, it's fine and normal even, but stop trying to blame and make fun of people who still do love the fandom and the content and the things we can create.
I need people to enjoy fandom again

Wynonna Earp: ‘Keep The Home Fires Burning’.
I have officially entered Wayhaught territory. It’s the main reason why I even wanted to watch this show.
Initially I was a bit put off that it wasn’t the lead main protagonist in the ship and I felt I was going to get another Tillow situation where one is a main protagonist but the other is a season regular or recurring character. But I said I’d check it out anyway and so far so good to me since the Haught part of the ship is already being introduced in the second episode. So to me she seems like a main character. No, it’s not the lead. When do we ever get that? But it’s sufficient representation regardless so I’m happy.
This WLW ship is highly regarded in the LGBTQ community as one of the best, longest and most well represented ship so I’m very excited to watch them.
Also. Anyone who knows me knows I love redheads.

Wynonna Earp (2016) Keep the Home Fires Burning
S1E2
Wynonna attracts some unwanted attention after returning to Purgatory; at the same time, she struggles to keep her impetuous nature in check while trying to conform to the rules imposed by the Black Badge Division. In other happenings, drifter Henry makes a deal he may not be able to honor.

wonder who this is!
#art#artwork#oc#artist#dragon#wings of fire#wof#wings of fire oc#wof oc#oc: trench#at least for now idk. not too sold on it but if nothing else its his alias#seawing#anyway hi! this is an ancient seawing who rarely if ever comes up to the surface and hasnt spoken a surface language in centuries#he had a skywing animus lover way back in the day who enchanted him in order to save him#from skywings who found out about their relationship#the skywing flew off after their home was burned down and in a fit of rage trench called forth a torrential rain at the attackers#so now trench waits. and waits. and waits. for their skywing to return#they live alone and in the deeper parts of the ocean where they cant be found easily#but they keep up with Current News with their given animus abilities so theyre still in the loop#he tries to be nice but hes very secretive and knows a lot more than he lets on

from (another) ode to my body
I apologize in sun-soaked skin and songs sung. She forgives me in breaths and beats, the hand against the ribcage, the rhythm of blood fed and unfed and fed again. Always me and the body, the body and the ache. Always her, doing the hard part.
#sav is writing#give it up for my sack of meat! keeping the home fires burning!#it's almost my birthday and man. im so glad im still alive

More of mob AU Nightlight
I like to think of OG Nightlight as a domesticated but Mob au Nightlight as feral hehe
Welcome home Mob au is by @clownsuu
Mob au Freddie is by @eldritchparasol
Nightlight is a basically a rat so I couldn't help but make a lil funny with the play on words .w.
#og nightlight was borderline on being a wild animal but i like to think that spending time with the neighbors kept them domesticated#Mob AU nightlight however spends most of their time out in the 'field' and has ended up going basically feral.#Welcome home Mob au#wh#wh au#welcome home au#welcome home#welcome home oc#welcome home mob au oc#my oc#my art#artists on tumblr#comic#also yes i forgot to draw the rest of barnaby arm in the comic ._.#og nightlight is already a very good climber. so i decided to lean into that and make it the base for their job in this au. going around an#crawling and climbing into places they shouldent be to keep an eye on other gangs and activity in the area#it helps that nightlights cheeks will glow and illuminate the vents and small spaces that they crawl though#in the bits of time their back at the base their favorite way to spend their time is sitting in front of the crematory's oven while its#running. its like a nice warm fire place. perfect place to take a nap :] it helps that they dont have a nose so they cant smell the burning#equivalent of flesh that puppets have.#nightlight also likes to stop by the bar and get a mug of chocolate milk when their at home base.#og nightlights favorite drink is warm milk since their whole thing is helping people fall asleep... so i altered that a bit since their#'thing' is no longer helping people sleep. .w.#nightlight is small and quick making them hard to catch. but watch out if you do manage to catch them! they keep several small knifes on#their person. im toying with the idea of also giving them some kind of spiked brass knuckles since they have gone a bit feral and they dont#have claws naturally... hm...#mob nightlight also doesn't talk much due to them going feral. they write down all their reports when in the field and bring those back#for review.#nightlight was originally a mix of a rat/ wolf/ and a bird... so i the inclusion of 2.5 of those animals is a lil Easter egg .w.

anyway so you know how when nona threw her third tantrum she held her improvised weapons in a two handed grip? I think the piece of gideon’s soul that harrow took is still there in her body (particularly because how would her lyctor regeneration work otherwise), and WHAT IF that’s why kiriona’s missing pieces?
#honestly someone’s prob posted this before lol but as usual tumblr’s search system sucks so I’m writing it anyway#tlt spoilers#tlt speculation#the locked tomb#she promised to keep the home fires burning after allllll#I call bullshit on John not being able or willing to ‘pay the price’ for ressurections anymore btw - but even he wouldn’t be able to bring#Gideon back with a piece of her soul missing

I just realized something potentially interesting
According to Eli, his Fire Mage powers first awakened sometime in the early 1970s - I think he says 1972 specifically And Blackwell Unbound takes place in 1973 So there's a non-zero chance that he could have run into Lauren Blackwell while she was actively working as a medium
#the fic opportunities are very fun to think about#poor eli trudging home from the office and trying to keep his suit from burning to cinders around him#running into an exhausted-eyed young woman wreathed in tobacco smoke who just looks him flatly up and down#'nice hat.'#he laughs a little nervously - is it on fire? is that why she's saying something? oh god it probably is#'yeah i - know it's a few years out of style.'#she huffs a little laugh and takes another drag of her cigarette#'reminds me of someone i know.'#blackwell series#unavowed

what gets me sometimes w the idea of the calamity is that there are probably places in the deserts of thanalan where the fire of bahamut turned the sand to glass and it’s just. a few handfuls of sand there are layers of glass
#like eyrie hears about prospector types in southern thanalan#and might have gone on a few ventures to keep them safe in the desert#and hearing about and seeing these layers of glass in the sand#like that sort of stuff is what messes with their head the most after the calamity#these bits and pieces of the mundane of life that have been so utterly changed#coerthas and its people are the starkest of the bunch but in the city states it’s these small things#the parts of the shroud that are so twisted and gnarled as the elementals cannot heal some of these hurts#how the wind and the water and the creatures of the area are. wrong and off#eyrie has been to western shroud only a few times and they have regretted it each time#gnarled ugly things live in that dirt#the debris in the oceans around La noscea#how it changed the landscape of the oceans. the tides and patterns changing now that a moon is gone#u don’t like. put a moon in orbit and it not effect the oceans#how many dead fish and other sea life washed ashore. the heaps of death#tainted and unable to be consumed. fires for burning these dead fish#pyres for the dead sahagin that washed ashore#idk I think about the damage to the people of Eorzea—the emotional and mental#but the ecological damage#like. if eyrie had the gumption to write a thesis for the studium#which would be a very rare chance since they would much rather write a book for the masses to have access to#but it would be a compiling of their offhanded ecological and human responses to the calamity#that push and pull between them#as someone with a vague familial connection to what thrived in the earth of their home ie. akin to elementals#it’s puzzling to them

Ah it was a talisman blocking the protection that Waverly had buried with her pet hamster Pikachu when she was a child at the command of Bobo Del Ray. That’s why Revenants could step on the land.
Not anymore since she’s dug it back up and threw it off the homestead. Along with a poor doomed Levi.
Well shit. I’m glad I got answers to that because that would be a pretty significant plot hole if I didn’t.
Wait a minute. They said Revenants can’t invade the Earp Homestead but in the first episode they planted a “welcome home/birthday gift” for Wynonna to find.
They were in the Homestead. On Earp homeland.
So when does this apparent “protection” by the ammolite happen? Because that particular North American gemstone was always within the home.
So the Revenants shouldn’t have been able to go in. They wouldn’t have been able to plant anything. They wouldn’t even be able to step foot on the front porch.
I’m confused.com with this piece of lore. They shouldn’t have been able to if the ammolite bedrock prevents them from walking on to the Homestead. Yet you see them do this several times - not just episode 1.

The sims 2 is so funny because you can do everything right, you can make your sims study cooking and go to work on time and micromanage everybody so that they don’t die in stupid ways, and then the goddamn nanny burns your house down
#AN NPC CAUSED THE FIRST FIRE IN MY NEW NEIGHBOURHOOD I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS#so i’m playing the prosperity challenge right. which is basically where you randomise some families and play them in rotations#i’m on the third family atm and it’s a single mom with a teenage son; child daughter and twin toddler boys#she has an ltw to become media magnate but i got her a job as an EMT in the meantime because it didn’t show up in the paper#and hired a nanny to take care of the kids while she and the oldest son were out#nanny was fine at first. she just made sugar cookies and made sure the toddlers didn’t get taken away by social services which i massively#appreciated. but then my sim came home from work and immediately got a promotion#to paramedic; which meant she had to switch over to nights right away. so the nanny came again a few hours later and immediately proceeded#to set my kitchen on fire#thankfully they have a smoke alarm but she sent the two older kids into aspiration failure. SHERYL WHEN I CATCH YOUUUU#bizarrely the person who is absolutely coming in clutch for this family is none of the family members and nor is it the nanny#it’s gerald who is the grandpa of a different family i created in the neighbourhood. he works with the mom (although he’s an intern now)#and she brought him home from work and he has just been here all night#it’s 4:20am and he’s sat playing with one of the toddlers helping him learn words with his bunny 🥹#gerald we looooove you. platinum aspiration for gerald. GOOD THINGS FOR GERALD#the most annoying people in this challenge so far are sheryl the nanny who burns stuff down and jackson; a kid in one of the other houses#who keeps calling everyone at 2am even if he barely knows them. and also at 10am on school days#jackson’s mom also irritates me because she came to pick her daughter up who was just playing chess on a porch at 8pm; bothering nobody#but doesn’t stop jackson from spamming everyone with calls. where is the logic#personal
