i think a lot of y’all grew up in conservative families and unlearned the outright bigotry but didn’t unlearn the ideology. because you’ll say something that sounds woke on the surface but actually quite conservative, especially when it has to do with sex and sexuality.

Really missing the "alarkling" days of the grishaverse fandom. It was an ugly ass ship name but that era is truly unmatched and before there was really any major discourse or just the messiness now</3

I need to stop falling in love with horrible people.

Anyway enjoy Crowe. Quite a lovely little minx.

Whenever i finish this it’ll probably be a long oneshot. Not that i expect anyone to read a Sibbi/OC fic lol

Anyone want to hear about my HTTYD OC?

Absolutely bonkers that we're reaching the end of old arc 1 by chapter 5 but that's just how new UF is ig

Did you like red queen? What are your thoughts on mare and maven? (Both individually and as a ship)

It used to be one of my top ten worst books of all time but then the YA category continued to publish stuff lol. I still wouldn’t say I like it, but it holds up better than a lot of stuff out right now. Like I will give Victoria Aveyard some credit for the first book twist. And generally she made several choices in the series where it felt genuinely shocking considering all the constraints on the age category at the time. It also occupies an interesting space in being one of the earlier entries in the gradual trend shift from dystopia to court fantasy.

But the books are still bad lol. The series was basically a laundry list of all the basic newbie mistakes, and Mare was frankly catastrophically annoying to me.

That being said, Maven is my precious son who has never done a single thing wrong in his life— up to and including killing infants and sending them gift wrapped to Mare.

Anyway the ship is not like… well executed by any means but the core concept is pretty solid. I don’t like care about these characters being together but the basis of jealousy and Maven kind of putting all his baggage wrt Cal, and being the overlooked second son, on Mare at least makes sense. And their scenes were definitely the most entertaining!

hello mutuals today i bring u a spreadsheet of ethelnatural occurances (aka whenever ethel cain has posted about spn--or adjacent). included is date, description of occurance, screenshot, and link to the post (if it’s still up). please do not use this spreadsheet to hate on hayden or for any negative purposes. please also do not spread it beyond tumblr (aka don’t repost this link--i dont want the normie gang to get ahold of this lol, again for privacy reasons). this is for insane spngirl daughters to have as a reference only! enjoy<3

The audacity of terfs to be saying shit like (misgendering warning!!) "I love ethel cains songs even though he's a male, his unreleased songs are so good and they speak to [x] even though he's a male"

...so u agree? Ethel Cain's music reflects the experience of womanhood, marginalization, and specifically the intersection of those two??? (Where marginalization can mean being a woman, being trans, being poor, being from the south, etc etc) HMMM. I wonder why that is 😐

anyways terfs i hope you explode while listening to hayden screech in ptolemaea!! i hope her scream sends u careening into oblivion!!

Cecil is already feeling better with his pain meds helping! 💜 He's happily taking malt paste now, including taking his meds in it just fine, and he greeted Jack at the cage door last night! :)

We're relieved that at least he's comfortable now, and crossing our fingers for meds to work magic & maybe avoid surgery. Not even for the cost entirely, we already have it mostly set out aside. Just don't want this poor man to have yet another surgery already!

Elane's chubby I don't make the rules🤷‍♀️

Rereading Red Queen again, my fav book series from when I was younger, and man I never realized how much I’ve missed it until now :’)

Maven, you still break my heart into a million pieces

[yellow-faerie]

I'm having so much fun: I have found a really chill School of Dragons playthrough to watch (and reminisce about that particular part of my childhood 😔) while obsessively creating my HTTYD OC

I'm living the dream I really am
