#so there are many valid readings of lotsa things!

[seaweedstarshine]

I just finished reading your meta on the NineRiver audios and honestly at first I was feeling a bit hesitant because of how I got exposed to the naysayers' takes first. But glad I finally felt brave enough to peek under the cut.

I love how you point out that the Doctor is always unsettled with the concept of having a wife in any regeneration because it's not that they hate River (which I've seen was the conclusion of some after listening to the audios 🫥), it's that they didn't think they'd ever be in a relationship, much more married of all things.

Also wanna ask if it's possible to have a clarification on the statement "River does not hide her infatuation". Unless it was used with a different meaning to what it usually has. Because by this point, she's past that infatuation stage? (Do we count Mels as the infatuation stage? I think early baby River could maybe count as infatuation stage too?)

Okay and the part where you point out that River barely notices the Doctor's new bodies is such a cool one because I JUST REALIZED IT. You know that thing where you ingest something but it takes you some time before said thing gets processed (usually by someone else pointing it out)? Yes, that's me.

Totally still laughing over Nine being "totally doing that kind of stuff with you, River, sans the guns" and around two regenerations later, he's totally doing that kind of stuff with River with the guns. He learned rather quickly that he has the tendency to give River what she wants lol (also headcanoning that Eleven had fashioned a hidden gun panel in the TARDIS console "just in case you need it River" but of course since we love angst he never was able to show it to her because she'd swanned off to the Library and he kept seeing her data ghost in the corner of his eye) (also could it be that the reason why Eleven is more "okay" sort of with her and her guns is because he understands her trauma and how having her gun around is sort of like her security blanket?)

Oh and Archipelago, my beloved. My heart hurt with Swipe Right, laughed a bit with Face of the Apocalypse, but damn, Archipelago. Damn. It made me bawl for a bit longer afterwards. I just love when Big Finish writers get DoctorRiver.

I'm gonna be dragging my heels a bit here though because although I originally went along with the QPR feels after my first listen (yes I listened to it again *⁠\⁠0⁠/⁠*), then a moot on Twitter pointed out that Nine and River had definitely fucked in the middle of the time storm. And I was like "WAIT WHAT WHEN WHERE" because how? I mean they were covered in corals by that time yeah? And moot said it happened near the end when they were acting "like a couple again" (must be after Nine read River's diary and got to know her, understand her). River described their time together while writing in her diary and mentioned "and then finally we lay together again". I had thought it meant literally lying down together but River being River, it could have meant they had, well, fucked. I don't understand the how of it though XD but they're River and the Doctor so kudos to them I guess?

erm this was quite long sorry for that >⁠.⁠<

ever questioning, Tia 💌

Thanks Tia! I liked your Star-Crossed initial review too :) “I also love how this smashes any belief that River forces the Doctor to have sex with her or do anything that the Doctor is uncomfortable with.” because YES. Yes, yes, yes. Anyway. A cut before I respond to each of these things.

1) Right?? Swipe Right could not have been more direct in repeating that the Doctor was bothered by the idea of marriage/relationships, not by River herself. The way writers give us aroace Nine, and some people can only see their ship war? Ah well.

2) Oh my god I totally misused infatuation — editing that! How do words work haha. I was thinking along the lines of… “Someone you can walk into your life and make you see everything completely differently.” “Harvey said that to me. Oh, believe me, Captain. The Doctor has already done that to me, multiple times.” Falling in love with the same person again and again… like older couples who consistently put in the work to go on regular dates, lighting these new sparks with new experiences even after being together for decades… couples like the Doctor and River. (Oh, my sweet Mels. There is a thin line between infatuation and brainwashing </3 Personally, I would say student River was her infatuation phase — researching him for positive reasons instead of murderous ones.)

3) River barely noticing the different bodies is so. <3 This corporeal form that is so tied to a human's sense of identity — yet to River or the Master, it’s no different than a particularly-physically-taxing change of clothes. Who hasn’t regenerated a few times? River gets to judge him for insisting on the face of a twelve-year-old. River gets to shoot off his hats. (Eleven radiating his “How do you do fellow kids?” energy.)

4) Oh yes, Nine and Ten were so self-righteous about guns. (River was so cute with Ten, too!) Ah, if Eleven had treated UNIT the way Ten had. Rory with his auton wrist-gun. Bad girl Churchill with his revolver. Miscellaneous Americans. I like to think the heart-to-heart over Wilf’s gun coinciding perfectly with regeneration helped him get past it; Eleven’s no-gun rule seems a lot more “good men don’t need rules, today is not the day to find out why I have so many” vibes. He doesn’t trust himself to use guns, but he does trust River — he believes in her far more than she believes in herself. (That said, YES— I really love the idea of the Doctor being very supportive of young student River having her guns, so that she feels safe. Even if she has PTSD flashbacks/brainwashing relapses and tries to kill him, he couldn’t care less; his only priority is making sure she feels safe and comfy, when she can. I wrote a fic with that as a theme lmao.) (Why you gotta BREAK MY HEART (girl I’m glad you do). Eleven standing alone against the colorless, minimalist console, hands pressed over the secret gun compartment he prepared — to show her how much she means to him — paralyzed by grief, torn between the need to be near to her and the need to protect himself from further heartsbreak, listening to River move around the room. Do you think River had her favorite alpha-meson blaster in the Library? He'll never be able to retrieve it. Nardole's not going to know to grab a gun.)

5) Oh, Archipelago. The way it completely gets these two, from the glorious to the dysfunctional, to the root reasons they just work. Secrets call for trust; but trust without the need of secrets becomes something so beautiful. Also, there's something I appreciate about the handling of an aspect that seems to get confused (by those who speculate “it's not love, the timeline forced it” as per that infamous-ish Harbo Wholmes video (okay, it's infamous-ish to doctorriver fans. Harbo has some misses haha); like we need further proof having a wedding isn't the only way to whisper in your lover’s ear). Nine's “Don't you wanna see what that's like to be with me, not cause it's preordained or prophesyed, just two people bobbing about taking it slow?” leading to their sharing secrets no other Doctor and River had shared before. The exploration wherein — far from their relationship being forced by the timeline — the temporal constraints of the fixed points of their deaths actually mean they have to work even harder for the relationship to be what it is, yet they create together something cosmically beautiful out of tragedy (“you know how much I use [the VM] to bind our lives together.”).

6) Huh, yeah, “And finally, we lay together again, in the height of the dark” sounded to me about lying down too! I did get the impression that lying down was the default since the coral infection (at least for River). River does love her innuendos in their verbal dance of wit (aka flirting), but it’s her diary, not the Bible… I think she would be more explicit than that, even if she is aiming for brevity! It wouldn't fit the vibe (in my opinion). As you say, they're barely able to move. And not that aroace people never fuck, but (personally) the idea of that here does leave the unsavory impression that River would've gone with it at the last hour while knowing it's not his thing, with the “whether you know that or not — whether you feel that or not” line coming afterwards despite the fact that he certainly “knows” their future at this point, from front to back to front to back again. (Also “acting like a couple again” is so subjective since QPPs do a lot of things that are typically associated with couples? like the physical intimacy between River and Nine?) Not being aroace myself I will try to speak more generally to avoid speaking over people on a topic I'm not qualified to speak on — but I think, at least, it would be very disappointing if it meant that — I know that it means a lot to me (and I become very protective) when I see positively-represented aspects of my own identity that are rarely portrayed in a non-stereotyped light — and it would indicate at best a major lack of miscommunication between writers after Swipe Right, or worse: if the implication was to uncritically imply his orientation could be altered by the right partner…? Anyway: I still see it as queerplatonic personally, but thanks for pointing out that observation because I wouldn't have thought of that line! (Also, I can't speak for your twitter mutual, who I don't know, etc.)

Anyway, thank you for the ask! 💌

Love the SMALL CAPS and YOU ARE LEGENDARY for them.

[enha-woodzies]

this is a mutuals mention game! u need to mention one or more mutuals that come to your mind at first when you read the following words (per word): flower, angel, love, chocolate, sweet, cute, gorgeous, fun, sun, moon and stars 💓

it's been a while since i've got another one of these... and i know i should just tag my moots but i can't go on without stating why cos there are valid reasons as to why i've thought of them that way. soo,, here we go~

🌼 flower :: @berrywoo i can't stress this enough you've always been a flower to me besides your name ofc and you're an icon of growth and genuine beauty. no matter how much people trample down on you, you still rise up with strength and beauty and humility. you show them your true self and how we all can be very vulnerable despite feeling all sunshine-y and you definitely put them where they rightfully belong. words can't even explain how pure you are 😘 i just love you so much

👼 angel :: @fluffi ayee pumpkin~ ma child <33 always exuding a bright beam of light and softness, a precious lil one 🥺 goal-directed and driven and what else? needs no effort to brighten up your day, it's just so easy with her that you'll end your day always full and happy :))) mwaa

❤️ love :: @en-amours besides the url lol i love how jo and i can go deep into our conversations and talking with her always makes me feel this kind of depth and solace + this sentimental vibe where just a mere presence of her can totally make you feel at ease. jo always have a lot to say abt things but they're usually not the general knowledge that you'll get from her. her words and sentiments often carry a lot of emotions and meanings. she's so raw with her thoughts and i loooveee that so much. i know we still have a long way to go to build up a much tighter bond but i can already say these with ease cos jo, you are a gem and i'm always in awe and in comfort talking to you 💛

🍫 chocolate :: @jakeysim gill, my babyghorl, she reminds me of chocolate mainly because she has a lot of energy and emotions 一 like a chocolate 🙃 you get that feeling when you take a bite off a chocolate bar and you suddenly feel a rush of different sweetness at once? like it may not look like it has a lot to offer but when you indulge yourself in it, you get a whole package maam. you get what i mean? like she's more than what meets the eye. she's not the typical "what you see is what you get" cos she's a WHOLE lot more 😉

🍭 sweet :: @en-sun wifey <33 ohh nani 🥺 mi precious luvv, always so supportive and sweet and thoughtful ughh might have ants biting me soon cos she hella saccharine sweet my teeth cant even >< she never fails to brighten up my day even when she was still my adorable emoji anon 🥺 she's just ultimately friendly and genuine, man

🧸 cute :: @chuunie aaaaa yuriii my other unofficial child lmao very very supportive and energetic and ofc, i cant leave adorable out now, can i? this loving being pls i feel like yuri's pretty jumpy in person and i would just shower this little cutie with lotsa hugs right away. cuddles >>> & @vrsace-niki my babykins!! very endearing and genuine 🥺 literally feel like biting or pinching your cheeks everytime we talk oh god cmere childddd i wanna wrap you up like a burrito and hug you so tight with my legs around your burrito body 😭

✨ gorgeous :: @entypens ooohh angel, my my, dont get me wrong all of my mooties are exceptionally gorg she a beaut and a gem, ya girl be slayin' all day and i'll be like "damn, that's my girl right there" proud mom right here yall !! at this point i cant keep track of how many children i have on this hellsite JFBHS

🤪 fun :: @soyatenada bee !! this person right here maam. very enthusiastic when her interactive mode's on. she's very analytical and deep too! such a great listener and a person with heaps of genuine feedbacks and advices. very curious and exciting like maam, your energy bar pls take it slow imma have to catch up JFHHS

☀️ sun :: @angeljungwon haziebub! she just exudes warmth and comfort 😌 it feels so easy and relaxing talking to hazel, like you can approach her at any time of the day and scream at her about something that made your stomach do backflips ykwim babe 😉 and she would immediately ride in the vibe and get along with your silliness or whatever... until the vibe dies out cos my energy is very limited pls im a hag

🌙 moon :: @miffythoughts eyyy miffy~ i totally loveeee miffy's appreciation to the wonderful, little things in life. i get that a lot of people do cos i myself adore little things as much as yall can imagine but there's something with the way miffy portrays those details and emotions. she just gets that feeling and i am in awe of how intricate she goes into describing these beauties. she's very deep and beautiful, inside and out. she knows what she's doing and what she's talking about and just... w o w her mind ykno 🤯 i kinda wanna live there rent free even just for a day. lemme peek through those intricacies you mold into masterpieces hun !!

🌟 stars :: @serendipitysung andiii, ma lifesaver andi HAHA andi sure is a bright jewel. she seems timid sometimes and in other times, she's loud. but she's just right 😉 she doesn't say much but you'll always have this sense of security and safety cos you know she's just right there beside you, no words needed to let you know that. i enjoy her feedbacks and appreciation and support towards my writing endeavors and how she's always so nice it feels like she embraces you in warmth and comfort that you just wanna snurfle under her chin and stay there because dang, feels so homey might wanna camp in here along with the sweetest aroma from fragrant candles surrounding around <33

ok i mean i know nobody's gonna read this but i'm still gonna go off and by all means do interact bc i feel like i'm not (?) the only one (?)

i just sometimes feel so defeated abt content creation for fandom. it's kinda like, mostly in my head, i feel like, but still, i sometimes think "oh shit why even bother" when it comes to drawing or writing for a fandom, in my case maybe drawing more so.. i mean, generally, when The Thing is still a WIP and completely sheltered from the public eye i usually feel good abt it. I don't think I'm bad at drawing and while i know i can always improve and usually also know WHERE i can improve i feel ok, feel good. but then i "publish" it and the anxiety starts peaking - it's kind of one of the reasons i stopped writing fanfiction because i simply couldn't stand the anxiety of the first few hours just kinda sitting by my phone, waiting for notifications and feeling completely and utterly defeated when responses were scarce, especially when i worked really hard on something and kind of wanted (and that's another thing: we're often told it's Not Valid™️ to do fanwork for praise but that you're supposed to do it for yourself and that maslowian type top-of-pyramid idea of self-fulfillment) others to REACT and maybe even LIKE what i put out there! I start seeing it from an outside perspective; more accurately, a very critical outside perspective. i start visualizing others finding The Thing and thinking stuff along the lines of "wow that's really off" or "XY is so much better at this", "I could do a better job" or whatever, just lotsa bad things, and I usually end up either deleting it or just being depressed over it (which might be strong in my case bc RSD i guess but i think everyone feels like that, at least everyone who's had at least one (1) bad experience in their life). And the thing is, there are people out there who are like that and I just genuinely don't know how to deal.. Then comes in the factor of other content creators who get praise and comments and messages abt their work and it kinda starts feeling like EVERYONE BUT YOU gets praise and then that's a whole spiral that happens and you start feeling even worse when in reality it's a good thing people are willing to react and feeling envious kinda makes you question your moral compass tooY and ANYWAY it's iust such a drag!!! Am I wrong to want praise (a lot thereof) and validation or does that make me arrogant for thinking i deserve it? How do other people deal with that? Are they just superior somehow, to the point that their will to create is so strong that nothing could ever deter them? Would I even ever be content with the amount of feedback I could potentially get? I've gotten to the point where I have so many completely unfinished sledgefu wips in both drawing and writing that i simply abandon because of my own standards and the standards i assume others to have and i feel like the more often i start and stop, the more my ability to finish something decreases. Even in this rant right now I'm kinda struggling coming to a full stop. HoW do people do it????? I think if I tried summing this up into core messages it is the following:

1) react to your artists (incl. writers)

2) is there anyone out there who feels similar? and if yes, how do you deal?

3) praise me

[franeridan]

hey i wanted to ask if you could make recommendations for bakushima fanfics? i'm curious as to what you're currently reading, what your favorites are and what your thoughts on the fanfics you read are! :)

Boi!!! Okay, I guess I did something like that a long while ago, everything I said about those fics is still 100% valid, after making that list I reread nearly all of them a dozen of times and I’ve loved them all just as much each of them, good great fics those - but since then I’ve read a shitton more, so!! Let’s do this? Let’s do this

My (newer) Favorite Fics:

one to ten by crunchrapsupreme - lotsa pining, acquaintance to friends to lovers, incredibly soft and ridiculously happy it gave me such a warm feeling reading it? Kirishima is so pure it made my heart sing, Kaminari is just as ridiculous and negative as he’s supposed to be and Bakugou’s!!! Perfect I’m sure you’re gonna like this one

out of sight, within reach by potato - no powers AU, high school AU, misunderstandings and jealousy and ridiculous babies in love - Bakugou pines!!! It’s actually!!! A fic from Bakugou’s pov with this ridiculous dork pining!!!! I would have loved it just for that, but honestly anything potato writes is worth reading they’re just so good and know the characters so well !!!

get tough, straight up by quactus - this!!!! damn!!!! fic!!!! it’s useless even to drag this for long, the reason why this fic is between my favorites is straight out the incredible amount of Bakugou and Kirishima acting like a couple while they’re not even aware their liking each other might be mutual - they’re soft, got no personal space at all, care for each other so sweetly seriously it’s so good to read it made my insides melt

all good things need sunshine by shizuumi151 - a flower shop AU from another author I love with all my heart! Go check everything they’ve written they’re honestly a fave, such a good grasp on these two - this fic is sweet (I think I used that word to describe all the fics I’ve recced till now? It’s my fav genre what can I do) flowers make me soft and these two acting like the ridiculous crushing idiots they are surrounded by them is just a recipe to make me happy lbr

it’s pouring out here again by shizuumi151 - no power/high school/basketball club AU and I’m pretty certain I suggested this one already between my favorite Kaminari fics? Cause he’s amazing in this one, he and Sero both - so are Bakugou and Kirishima, obviously, the whole atmosphere of the fic makes me genuinely happy every single time I read this fic (which I’ve done… way too many times in the last month already, honestly… rip this is a fav for sure)

Fight Me by ryonello - no quirks/nurse! Kirishima AU and oh my god this fic is so good - it’s fun? and bright? and Bakugou pines in the most endearing way ever? I spent the whole fic nodding and going same Baku same haha

From Pictures to Words by Kivea - snapchat AU snapchat AU snapchat AU!!!! Holy heck!!!! These!!!! NERDS!!!!!!! This is a seriously great fic - Baku/Mina friendship and the squad being it all there and Baku & Deku being on civil terms make it all even better, but g o d Bakugou and Kirishima in this fic. Jesus Christ. I love them so much I can’t even find the words to describe it

little are the things we learn by newamsterdam - a 5+1 fic, 6 PoV total each of them describing the KiriBaku relationship from the eyes of those aorund them - listen. Listen. This might be obvious, because newamsterdam is my absolute fave KiriBaku author, but I live and die for this fic - aside from how I adore the external PoV format in general, every single character is so incredibly IC? And the KiriBaku relationship is so so so well described and complete even if constantly seen from an outsider’s point of view? God, I love this fic. I should reread this fic right now, honestly

but I’ve got an angry heart by newamsterdam (again) - no quirks/college AU good god this fic - you could, technically, go back in my blog and find my reblogs of every single chapter and see me dying under every single one of them. Cause this fic killed me. Kept me alive too, somehow. This might be my favorite KiriBaku fic atm, it’s so complete both from a plot point of view and from the building of the various relationships in it too - there’s Bakugou & Aizawa golden interactions, the whole squad is there and their relationships both with Bakugou and with Kirishima are perfect, I live for the way Baku and Deku’s relationship was brought in this fic and the building of Bakugou’s relationship with Kirishima is just. So. Good. It broke my heart a lot, but it made me super happy too so! It was definitely worth it I love reading this fic always

don’t count on me to let you know when by newamsterdam - I’m just, fucken, reccing all of asma’s fics whatever - this one’s n/sfw so keep that in mind! It’s also happy ending with a lot of pain and miscommunication and PLEASE BAKUGOU FOR FUCK SAKE HOLY SHIT WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS I SWER TO FUC———………..it’s a great fic please give it a try if you like to die a lot I don’t know if I mentioned this but newamsterdam’s characterization is everything I live and breathe for, lately (this fic is also the first of hers I read and the moment I decided I had a new fav author so)

Those Ten Moments by Kivea - I’m starting to notice the names sorta keeps on repeating - anyWAY Kaminari trying to make Kirishima see that his crush is requited, what a good fic it’s so much fun??? So many silly lighthearted shenanigans??? And Kaminari is beautiful in this??? Constantly #blessed tbh

you looked at me by shizuumi151 - okay this is N/SFW. And it’s actually mostly a pwp, which are usually Not My Thing. But this fic. My man this fic. Holy shit. It’s definitely one of my favorite Bakushima out there, like, possibly in my top five? Probably, I love it that much - at this point I made it clear I love this author’s way of portraying them so much, but the characterization in this one is so good? And they’re so… warm? And loving? I mean fuck they barely even know each other and still there’s so much attraction written in such a good way I might have read this fic one too many times okay. I don’t know if pwp’s are your thing. But even if they aren’t try this one out. Seriously.

parted, and never parted by Authoress - this list is getting too long so I’ll just drop the Bakushima side of this author’s AO3 page here and beg you to read everything they’ve written for them - I know I’ve said it a lot already but trust me they are worth your time. The fic I linked is a fantasy AU with God of War!Bakugou and Soldier!Kirishima, and it might maybe be my fave between the ones they’ve written? It’s one of those fics that stay with you even just for the visuals they evoke tbqh

the sunshine people by dellsey - no quirk/zumba instructor!Kirishima AU and aaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh This Fic Holy Shit it’s so warm? So much fun? So much fluff? Sunshine is actually a perfect word to describe this fic, it’s… a comfort fic, the type of fic you read when you need Serious Picking Up, I don’t know how many of my days this fic has saved since the first time I read it

2 A.M. by cityboys - yo would you look at that another author that turns into gold everything they touch - how do I even begin to describe this fic. It’s. A restaurant AU. It’s super long, with an incredible plot, amazingly detailed descriptions, very good platonic interactions aside from the Literally Perfect Bakushima in it. When I read this fic the first time I literally pulled an all nighter to go through it all in one go - I kept on telling myself okay now I’ll stop and yet. It’s that sort of good. This is. A really good fic.

you and I might just be the best thing by poteto - no quirk/college AU with pining Kirishima this fic is??? So much fun??? I’ve read it so many times?? Kirishima is such a damn disaster in this??? He’s a mess and Bakugou’s confused by his antics for most of the fic I love it this fic is what Good Feelings look like when written down

Can you f believe how many titles I just dropped, and it’s not even all the ones I have in my bookmarks - okay now for what I’m following, I’m actually following nearly everything that’s regularly updating atm, but since this list is long enough as it is I’ll just drop you the names of my faves? Yeah, let’s go for that

The potential of you and me [NOW COMPLETE] by Claus_Lucas -  this fic isn’t even done with and it’s already between my bookmarks can you believe - it’s a neighbours AU, only one chapter out and should be done with the next, it made me really happy to read? Kirishima’s such a ball of pure sunshine in it? I love it

his is the sun [NOW COMPLETE] by bwyn - a soccer team/soulmates AU and when I bookmarked this one it was supposed to be done with but looks like there’s another chapter incoming after all!!! What a good!!!! I’m weak to soulmates AU so sometimes I can be a bit biased towards them, but this one is a really good one! Bakugou is… such a fucking idiot… gods 

I let you go, hoping that you’d come back by shiro_yuu - a Single Dad Bakugou Future AU - actually, what I’m really loving in this fic is the way Bakugou and Kirishima have to act around each other? They used to be together but then broke up, so now it’s ten years in the future and they’re still totally smitten but unsure over whether they should try to go for a relationship again and sure the other doesn’t want a relationship anyway - it could have turned into lots of awkwardness and angst, but instead they’re so… familiar? And loving? In the way they look at each other and touch each other and talk to each other, it has a really good atmosphere I’m really liking that about this fic

Electric Moment by cityofnumbersix - a band AU! In which the band members are Kirishima Jirou Denki and Sero and Bakugou’s just joining them - also Mina’s there with them always even though she’s not actual part of the band - it’s!!! The full squad!!!! It’s what got me to try this fic out to begin with honestly. Everyone’s definitely more sexual than what my headcanons for them are, but the squad interactions in this one are Good (the Baku&Jirou interactions are giving me life???) so I’m always super happy when it updates!

slow it down (go easy on me) [NOW COMPLETE] by newamsterdam - ofc I’m following newamsterdam’s current fic, psh - also, hi asma, this fic is stressing me the fuck out (I love it to bits). It’s a Bakugou-gets-sent-to-the-future-and-keeps-it-a-secret fic which is a trope I live for, but also secrets make me go in Constant Impending Doom mode so I need to psyche myself up for hours before I can actually click on the new chapter when it’s out. This fic is making me cry and playing with my heart and I’m loving every second of it, but what am I even saying this for ofc it is and ofc I am

The Lost Continent by cattchi and paglycos - uhhhhhhhhhhhh yeah this is super N/SFW. It’s a pirates AU, and tbh I like the world building and the way it’s written a lot, so I’m leaving this here like, hey this fic is maybe a bit too much on the n/sfw side for my tastes and some things Bakugou does in the beginning make me go w h y, but I’m interested in the plot enough to go :O!!! when I see an update so have it! If you’re more into sex than I am you might seriously enjoy it - do read the tags before deciding if you want to read it, tho!

Tonight, We’re The Sea [NOW COMPLETE]by idratherhaveyou - I can’t believe I forgot to mention this fic this is my favorite fic out of the ongoing ones - it has beautiful sceneries, perfectly written characters (the way Kirishima’s low self-esteem is portrayed gives me life and Bakugou’s awkwardness in dealing with people makes me warm) the interpersonal relationships are all AMAZING (I live for Sero and Kiri’s friendship? And Mina is so good too - Kaminari’s got a weird relationship going on with Bakugou too, such a good way of bringing their canon relationship in the AU!!) and the way Kirishima and Bakugou’s relationship is evolving is so natural - I really recommend trying this one out, it makes me giddy every time it updates

Burn Like The Sun [NOW COMPLETE] by Kivea - if you’re looking for a bakusquad fic this is the fic for you, it’s all five of them being dorks and loving each other so much and tbh that’s what I love this fic so much for - that, and the literally perfect way in which Bakugou and Kirishima are made to fall in love. It’s super slow burn, but the both of them care for each other deeply since nearly the beginning in an open and obvious way and it’s such a pleasure to watch them navigate their very intimate friendship, too. It’s a firefighters AU by the way! And it has really great Bakugou and Deku and Bakugou and Uraraka interactions too, so if you’re into that you’re gonna love this. Also a very brief mention of Tetsu/Kiri, but there too it mostly boils down to friendship in the end. I love this fic, I’m sure it’s gonna be between the ones I’ll suggest to everyone once it’ll be done~

[probablypartalien]

Since you are, hands down, one of my favorite bloggers on this site and as a result of me falling in love with this headcanon, I’d like to summarize was a lot of the Phandom (isn’t that cute? Fandom + Phantom) props up as reasons to assume that Danny is ftm trans and that the show explores the struggles of a trans person. Obviously you aren’t obliged to read any of this or to change your mind on any of it.

First, it’s easy to see parallels between Danny hiding his alter-ego and a trans person hiding their authentic self. His parents are both shown to be very heteronormative. They’re also shown to be anti-ghost. The whole hiding being a ghost because his parents would freak out is one thing. Though he does express the sentiment that they’d love him no matter what when threatening to expose Vlad for being a ghost hybrid too, we are also often shown how they’re itching at the chance to hunt and capture a ghost. Some people compare this to having conservative parents. But that’s all just thematic stuff.

There are often points in the show where Danny’s chest is a different size and there is never a scene of him topless. Many outfits and these aforementioned points lead to the “he wears a binder” theory. And as a trans guy myself, I can tell you that I will never willingly be seen shirtless -and- sometimes I look more flat than not. So for trans guys, we see one of our daily struggles in that. Even if we are over-reaching.

I think it’s episode 6 where we get a genie-esque ghost. When asking Danny if he wants anything and he declines, she reaches forward and motions to touch his chest while asking if he’s sure. He jumps back and declines harder.

Once or twice in the show, Danny winds up humiliated by being stuck in women’s costumes. This is very short and insignificant plot-wise, but for those looking at the scene in a trans lens, they see his gender dysphoria thrown in his face.

Then, of course, there’s the whole deal with his clone being female.

There are definitely themes of acceptance and growth in the show and it ends with basically everyone loving Danny “even though” he is a ghost hybrid. It’s cathartic (though I’ll never get over the squandered potential of the show as a whole...)

I hate that lotsa people are just jumping on the headcanon to spite Butch. That’s just stupid. Some people, myself included, feel represented and validated through this headcanon. I hate the attempts to weaponize it. Like how some South Park fans are all over the Stan is trans/non-binary because they think the writers, Matt and Trey, are trans phones. That is, as your awesome tag denotes, “fandumb.”

Thank you very much for asking this question and permitting me the chance to ramble about something that makes me happy. And if you read all this? You’re even more of a champ than I originally thought!

I genuinely have no idea where this “Danny is Trans” thing came from.

It’s just one of those things that seems to have cropped up out of nowhere.

[unending-happiness]

I'm fairly new to this fandom. There has been so much drama going on, and it kind of worries me that a fandom is so divided. In the past, has the drama ever gotten so bad that certain blogs have been targeted? I've been a part of some fandoms where that has happened.

Hi Nonnie! Welcome! I’m guessing when you say “fandom” that you mean Shadowhunters in general and not just Malec fans, but I’m not sure. Full disclosure, I like to be honest and use lots of words, so lotsa words coming at ya. The truth is that there is no easy answer to this question. I’ll tell you what I know about fandom and drama from my own experience. I’ve been here about a year. I’ll answer this in three parts. (right?! I’m ridiculous)

First: Drama

*sighs* There is ALWAYS drama. Drama Here. Drama In other fandoms. (Which it sounds like you know well) Drama in real life. I know it varies and I have heard some say that SH is way drama heavy while others have said that other fandoms were equal to or worse. Drama happens. People tend to be opinionated. A lot of the time they put stuff out there without thinking of what others will feel about it. People often lack empathy, especially online. My advice on drama both on Tumblr and in life and what I tell my children is this:

You do NOT have to participate in drama. You don’t have to take the bait of someone talking about your favorite character, ship or actor. You don’t have to answer that vile anon. You don’t have to even see any of it. You can unfollow, block, blacklist, whatever it is that you need to do to avoid drama if you so desire. You do not have to give weight and power to negativity. You don’t have to give it oxygen or space. 

That being said, drama and discourse are two different things. I find that I enjoy respectable, well thought out discourse, and so I follow some blogs who are opinionated and I like reading their opinions on how the show could have done some things better, or their character metas. It’s no surprise that a lot of these blogs are writers. Writers, by-in-large, are people who think critically and are careful and measured with their words, because they know the weight and power words can have. Some people don’t like discourse at all, which is fine, so I try to tag mine so it can be avoided if people don’t want to see it. I find that even if I’m not participating in the latest heated argument, I am generally curious and at least want to know why people are carrying on. So I will look things up and see what they are saying. 

For example - yesterday I could see a few people on my dash talking Dom and his Malec comments (intelligently and calmly), but I didn’t know what it was really about, so I wanted read Dom’s interview quotes again. So, (as usually is the case) I knew something was going on, but I saw no real hate or drama on my dash. I searched Dom’s tag looking for his original interview to see what his actual words were. And……I got exactly 4 disgusting posts in before I hit the close button, retreated back to my turtle shell and just messaged a sweet friend asking if she had the interview. So I do SEE it. I know it’s there, but as far as drama on my dash there is pretty much zero. Discourse, about 10%, because I enjoy a good discussion. And what I see I go looking for. Sometimes my curiousity makes my life difficult. But that was my CHOICE to go looking. It’s largely about choices. I choose to follow amazing, kind, sweet, artistic, talented, joyful, loving people. Many of those have followed me back. And my fandom experience is wonderful because of it.

Second: Targeting

I know much less about this than I do about fandom drama. The very definition of targeting is 

a person, object, or place selected as the aim of an attack.

I suppose, based on that definition that, yes, I guess I have in fact seen people targeted in this fandom. Humans can be absolutely terrible and so full of hate. And the SH isn’t in a protective bubble. So, while I have never felt targeted myself, but I have seen my mutuals experience this. Others have indeed selected them to be on the receiving end of their hateful words. Now, what I have seen wasn’t a whole bunch of people attacking one person. It was just one or two attacking one or two. But even that has been very uncommon in my experience. And I don’t know if that is just because of the people I follow or if that is the case with the fandom as a whole. I tend to believe it’s the latter, only because I follow such a wide range of SH blogs with many different personalities, and still don’t see it.

In general the correlation I notice is that the more opinionated you are as a blog and the more discourse you put out, the more opinions you get back. These opinions are frequently in the form of anon asks. The larger blogs also get more nastiness sent their way, because they have a larger audience. I feel like all of this is to be expected.

I’ve had friends delete hateful asks without answering and I’ve had some answer them eloquently and with much more tact and respect than the person doing the attacking deserved. I’ve even known a few who have had turned anon asks off because off temporarily because people were saying terrible things. It all varies based on what the person running the blog can and chooses to do. I’ve followed blogs who get hate spewed their way because they love and defend a certain character, so “fans” of the other character will say nasty things. But, in all of these cases, the hate of a few is largely overpowered by the love of many. All of these people have wonderful friends and people who defend them, support them, and help them. And it is largely diffused because of how they choose to respond. 

Have I seen people attack others? Yes. There are some who will attack others simply because they can. They don’t even need a reason. And is there ever a valid reason for hate anyway? No. Definitely not. And people love the “my thing is better than your thing” drama. Or “your thing is problematic” drama. Do I have strong opinions about my ship? Sure. But I don’t need to hurl them at every person who believes differently. It isn’t necessary or productive. I know nobody could change my mind about my ship, so why would I try to change the opinion of others? Why would I want to?

I personally, have not seen any extreme cases of targeting. Anytime I’ve seen someone get hate, I’ve also seen many come to their defense, and it’s made me proud to be in this fandom. I have heard about extreme targeting happening with blogs who ship a certain less popular ship,  but, I also follow blogs who ship this ship and they seem to have lovely friends and a great support system and I haven’t seen them be attacked. I don’t have much personal experience with this, so it’s hard to answer, but it is my experience that you tend to get back what you put out. If you are confrontational and attack others, then yes, you will get attacked. If you like discourse, you will get discourse. If you wanna just sit on a fluffy marshmallow all day and die of fluff and feels, then you will die of sugary sweetness. I prefer Death by Daddario and Mauled by Malec and I get it daily. It’s fantastic!

THIRD: Tips for a positive fandom experience

This is what I do to make my fandom experience positive. I like kind people. They are my jam. I want nice asks, Tumblr hugs, endless beautiful photos of Matt in my inbox, art and fics from sweet and talented people, all the yelling about Malec greatness, people who support each other, intelligent discussion, empathetic humans.

Full disclosure: I get emotional. I have opinions. I am a serious Malec shipper. I’m on the board of the Alec/Matt Protection Squad. I speak fluent sarcasm. And because of this I’ve gotten the occasionally salty anon. Salt returned. Fair enough. I do make mistakes and I am sure I’ve upset someone before. I also apply this same standard to my friends. I know they aren’t going to be perfect.I know they will have bad days and have a raw emotional response occasionally. They are human and I expect this. Fandom has been a learning curve. But, I try really really hard to be positive and kind. Some hopefully helpful tips.

-Don’t follow just anyone. If I think I might want to follow them, I’ll scroll pretty far down on their blog to see what they post/reblog. If I see hate or negativity, then I’m out of there. I give it 2 posts. If I see even 2 in 50, then I don’t want to be there.

-It’s ok to unfollow anyone. If I do follow someone and I see them posting things hating on other people,  ships, actors, whatever it may be. (not discussions, just words meant to hurt people) then I usually give it about 3 times, and I unfollow. No big deal. I don’t want to see it so I don’t see it. I don’t care if it’s a large blog or a small one or who the person is. It isn’t personal. And NO it is not my responsibility to try and correct the bad behavior of every person who ships the same couple I do. I don’t like when people say that you have a responsibilty to do that. You don’t. I’ll do my part by spreading positivity and light.

-Block anyone who makes you feel unsafe. If I see a person attacking someone on a post or their blog, whatever it may be, I immediately block them as a preventative measure.

-Blacklist anyone/anything. There are times within the fandom that discourse gets to even me,especially if it’s one of the characters I love, So for instance, if a character I love is being heavily criticized after an episode, I will just blacklist either the people saying the things or the relevant tag for a bit. Tumblr savior is your friend. Use it. 

-Keep scrolling. My first reaction to anything that pisses me off or upsets me is to keep scrolling. I don’t need to chime in. I don’t need to start an argument. That person can put whatever they want on their blog and so I Alec level eye roll that shit and move on with my day.

-Talk to trusted friends. If a post just eats at me and I need to discuss it, then i’ll send it to a friend I love and trust. We will discuss it, go back and forth on it, she will talk me down from the “but I really want to set this person straight ledge” and we move on with our days. (my poor bestie is an angel). Amazing friends are so helpful in fandom.

-Think. Before I reblog ANYTHING, I try to think of how it will make my followers feel. If they ship a certain ship or like a certain character, and I post this how will they feel about it. If I think it’ll make someone feel upset or alienated, I scroll on by. If I like and appreciate the humor, sarcasm, sentiment, but I’m a little torn about reblogging it and not sure how people will take it, then I’ll just like it and not reblog.

-Extra think. Same but extra gets applied to posting something of my own. I think about every way that anyone can take it or be hurt by it. And I also think of how I’ll respond if someone reacts badly. I think about my wording, people of other ships, etc. This is original content you are putting out into the world that will get reblogged. You can never get rid of it once it’s out there. Every. Single. Time. that I have said “this will probably get me a salty anon” it has. Every time. I know before I even put something out there what it will most likely bring back. In those cases I have felt that me expressing my opinion on that matter was worth the salty anons. And I’ve never regretted one. I tend to be very sarcastic and opinionated in my tags, because most likely the only people seeing those are my followers and if people follow me they know how I am and they also know where the unfollow button is, so that’s more of a safe space. But, I have gotten anons who specifically referenced my salty tags. 

-Respond carefully. Speaking of salty anons.(I’ve never gotten hate, thankfully) Yeah, you could think of it as this person is coming to your door and being confrontational about what you put on your own damn blog and they are hiding behind anonymity to boot, so really I should be able to say whatever I want back. Right?! No. I push that feeling down and  I respond very carefully. I consider their opinion and their pov. I always tell them I have done as much. I stand by my original opinion, which is easy because I’ve thought it through before I posted, and I am understanding, and tell them that it’s ok if they disagree with me. I do this especially if I think they are trying to bait me. Thanks but no thanks. I’m not about that. I am so extra about this that I have my beta bestie read through a lot of my responses to anons before I post them. Just to be sure I’m not missing anything and I’m giving off the sentiment I want to give off. This formula is pretty good because I’ve never gotten a “level-up” on angry from an anon yet. (knock on wood) I think most often they really just want you to know they were irritated and that you upset them. It’s cool. Message received.

-Tag spoilers and discourse. Maybe not always, but I try really hard. This helps so much. People may follow you but not be able to stand discourse.

-Flood negative with positive. If someone is being mean to someone I follow I block the meanie, and then I yell nice things at the person being attacked. I also send them a sweet ask. I often will also send them a message with support. Light drives out dark. Period. I don’t address the hateful person directly. I do this with the cast and their s/o as well when they get hate. I just send them nice things. It’s easy. Don’t feed the trolls. It only makes them bigger and more angry.

-Spread love. If you love someone’s fic–tell them. If you love someone’s art–tell them.  Reblog the shit out of that with nice tags. If someone’s tags make you happy–tell them. If you think someone is sweet–tell them. Anything nice that goes through your brain. SAY IT LOUD. I cannot stress this enough. If you are shy, just do it on anon. People appreciate that. Love wins, always. 

-Surround yourself with good people. This is the most important thing for a good fandom experience. I have some of the very best friends I’ve ever had in my life because of this fandom. They are amazing people. Some of us are very different and I don’t always agree with them, but I do agree with their methods, their kindness and generosity, with their love and support.

SO, anon. I’m sure you are probably like, wtf is this?! I never asked for a damn novel, crazy!!! And so I’m sorry for this stupid long response. But, this isn’t an easy answer. And I can’t tell you about darkness without telling you how to drive it away. This is all stuff that people around me helped me do when I first started my blog and it’s been such a help. 

I hope this helps and please feel free to send me any more questions you have. Also, I would be more than happy to rec you some positive and kind blogs, if you wish. I follow a lot of Malec, and I’m not sure if you are a Malec fan or not, so I’m not doing that now. But if you tell me what kind of blogs might interest you, I would be happy to rec some! Thanks for asking. I hope you have a beautiful day. I hope your experience in this fandom is fun and wonderful and you don’t get dragged down by the bad side. The good side is so so so so great. Totally worth navigating the shit storms imo. Welcome. I LOVE THIS FANDOM.

:)

Is this a journal now? I guess I just want to write some thoughts down in a place ill remember... I want to cry. I learned the term “stone femme” today. I looked it up, there also the term “paper” vs “stone”. 

I’m not sure how to navigate the labels I’ve found that somehow fit. I’m afraid to write them. I’m afraid to write them down and that a later me, a me from the future will read it and laugh. That I’ll laugh at what is my current self. I’m glad that I honored my past selves for my birthday, and I hope to never insult things that I have once held dear. I am writing this down now, with the hope that I will never ridicule myself for trying to figure all of this out. Future me, if you are reading this, please honor me.  Some labels I have found helpful, in order of apparition in my life: Lesbian: I guess lesbian porn is the first thing I ever watched. Not sure why, it just seemed like a more natural, less violent thing to watch. Lesbian is a woman who loves women. Easy to understand as a kid, even though I never identified as such. Sex: Ohhhh, so the penis goes INSIDE the vagina..... DAMN Rape: This is dangerous and I must protect myself from it Bisexual or bi-curious: I guess this makes sense. Of course, I like boys, who doesn’t like boys? I must like boys, never questioned it that is for sure. In any case, girls are nice too. I like girls (maybe?) but I'm not supposed to. I guess sometimes I think this word, but I don’t remember very well. I’m not quite ready to say bi-sexual vs bi-curious because I don’t feel I have the CV for it.  Girl friends: I have a friend who is pretty and soft. We sleep over often and I want to spend every waking minute with her. Virginity:  You loose it to someone you love. Maybe it will hurts. Blow job: I give my first in the woodshop in the basement of my first (and only) boyfriend’s parents country house. I don’t really want to, to be honest it grosses me out, but this is what girlfriends do so I do it.  Penis: My boyfriend jokes that I am afraid of them. He says that because I think they are gross and I hate touching them.  Blue Balls: If you touch a man and then stop, or if you arouse a man and then stop, you are hurting him, you have caused him pain, sometimes unbearable pain. Sometimes, by simply existing in space, I cause unbearable pain to my boyfriends, thus I must remediate to the situation.  Dissociation: When you feel like you are not in your body anymore. Sometimes I dissociate during sex with my boyfriend.

Best friends: I’m in love with my best friend and my nipples hurt because we have started sleeping together and she won’t leave my tits alone. I tell her and we laugh, she says she will go easy.

Queer: Gay, but in a way, I don’t really have to describe. It’s catch-all for gender and sexuality, I don’t have to explain myself, nothing to prove. I like this word.

Consent: Not sure why I did not know about this before. I discover for the first time what it feels like.

Boyfriend: I want a boyfriend. I want to feel safe. Someone give me a boyfriend. Daddy: Holy fuck, this is even better than a boyfriend. Gender:  This is not the same as sex. 

Non-binary: When I learn this word I don’t understand it. It’s frustrating and it seems to fit nowhere in my experience as a POC. I feel left out of something that could have had meaning for me. Cis people: I don’t think about my gender, I’m cis.  Asexual: What????????????? This is a thing???? Relief. I thought I was broken because I was afraid to touch. I thought I had a problem because I don’t really know if I really ever feel “want”. When I try to touch, anxiety overpowers me. Demisexual:  Sometimes I do want, I think. I’m not sure, I experience it for the first time with Devon. I think. Trans: Devon is trans and I love him very dearly. He is my sweet girl, we are “in lesbians” with each other.

Pansexual / Panromantic: Attraction across gender, I like this much more than bisexual. I am specifically not bisexual. Polyamourous: nothing to do with queers, but somehow lotsa queers are into this. Am I into it? Im queer.... it seems to accomodate queer lifestyle... i dont know... Femme daddy: Not sure I remember the definition of this one, but it blows my mind. A mix of femme and masc that I’ve never heard of before Stone butch: Myloe does not want to be touched (to some degree). I knew nothing about “stone”. This is also a revelation! Some people have very specific desires and boundaries and thats ok. (It never occurs to me that the opposite of stone butches exist, I just notice that its incredibly convenient for me to be with a stone butch). Binder: mysterious contraption that I am afraid to touch Trauma: When something hurts a lot and you can’t get over it. Sometimes it changes you as a person. Not sure how much of it is part of me now. Genderfucking/ gender play: At first for Devon, and then for me. Playing around with my gender opens a new world of possibilities for me. When I switch gender I feel things differently, my anxieties change. I am not bound by the same fears anymore. I gain a different type of power. Penis: An organ that is part of the body of the woman I love, thus: organ that I love touching.  “Daddy” / Desire:  This word takes a new meaning when it is said about me. My body feels different. I finally feel “want” in a way that I have never felt before. I crave. I desire. I want to touch and bite. My skin is on fire and my whole body melts. Vagina: Thing that scares the fuck out of me. Sexual assault: He has kind eyes, he is shy and very cute. I want to hang out all of us, but once I am in his hotel room, I feel like I’ve been tricked? Where are the others? We hang out a bit. And then I say no. Maybe I did not say it strongly enough.  Gay: I am gay. I hate men. They make me sick.  Transmasculine: Different shades of AFAB people....... They are all beautiful and I am attracted to many  Gender-fluid: I play daddy. I dress up as daddy. At first for fun, to see what happens. And then I like the power. I like the ease and freedom. I like how it feels. I like to move this way and navigate space, social and physical, with this shape. I switch from one to the other depending on what I want out of the situation, I guess sometimes I just want that extra persuasion. Nonbinary: I still hate this word. But I think it out of convenience sometimes. I feel like a fraud, but since I dont claim this as a status, I am comfortable within my gender. I dont want to be policed. I just want to be a hot daddy. Trans man, hormones, top surgery: Some men are trans. I’m hooking up with Jordan and they are HOT holy fuck. They stone also, but they didn’t say it like that. Penis: Jordan has like six penises on their night table. What?? Penises? Holy fuck. What if I had a penis I could strap on. What?? I never thought about this. I’m thinking about going penis shopping!  THE REVELATION:

STONE FEMME, OR “PAPER”: THE OPPOSITE OF STONE. DOES NOT LIKE TO TOUCH. THIS IS A VALID QUEER IDENTY??? what??? this blows my mind. I tell eliane about stone butch, they check it out on wikipedia and tell me about stone femme. I say what??? I don't know this word??? it blows my mind. I don’t have to touch if I don't want to? Most, if not all, of my sexual life, is me having to touch and not wanting to. What do you mean I don't have to touch? What do you mean? What do you mean? Do you mean I am not broken? Do you mean I am not hopeless? Does paper mean that I can be loved? Does paper mean I deserve to be wanted? Does paper mean I can “want” in my own time? Does paper mean I do not have to be alone, in the dark, to heal? Does paper mean I deserve warmth? Does paper mean I can be touched, without fear, without pain, without guilt? Does paper mean that I will not tense up, will not dissociate, will not cry when I am asked to touch? Does paper mean I can cordially say “no” and set my rules? Stand my ground? Honor my body? My self? I am afraid of saying this word to others. I feel like I must justify it with words like “trauma”, “rape”. and “assault”. Truth is I’m not sure what paper means to me. I don’t want to define it to anyone but myself. I like this word, it’s pretty, I want to protect it, it is very dear to me. It fills me with joy and tears.

2017-4(APR)-19 -Wednesday.

2017-4(APR)-19 -Wednesday.

I fed Sam & Max early in the morning not long after dawn then had to go back to bed because I was completely and utterly exhausted and in pain.

I managed to get 1.5 hours of broken sleep added onto to my few hours of broken sleep that I'd had before.

I was finally awoken by the loud yellings of aboriginal criminal kids in the streets roaming all about.

Later, there has been vehicles parked up at the criminal ABORIGINAL HOUSEHOLD coming and going, and one in particular had been parked there in their driveway for an hour.

You may think that is 'normal', but nothing is normal, especially for them.

If you read my last posting in my blog, you will have read of the aboriginal toddler infant in a diaper being (as usual) allowed to play on the roads by itself. And it sat down in the middle of the road (as is constantly allowed). - And an innocent huge truck came into the road and was about to run it over. Somebody (at the aboriginal CRIMINAL HOUSEHOLD?) yelled out, and the toddler toddled off the road and just stood on the edge of the road as the truck thundered past and was gone. And of course NOBODY rushed out and 'rescued' the diaper toddler or showed any concern whatsoever.

But freely allowing a diaper clad toddler to roam about and on roads is something most people have no concept of, and then their minds try to dimiss the fact, and then their minds try to dream up all sorts of crazy excuses rather than ever to face up to reality.

By the way, a slight correction to yesterdays factual reporting of the above incident of the truck vs. toddler. It wasn't a light-pole carrying truck with a big crane at its back. It was in fact a brick(s) carrying truck with a big crane at its back used for unloading of the extremely heavy packs of bricks it carries. A big heavy truck.

I mention that above to stop any nitpicking.

A secondary slight correction to another earlier report of crap being deliberately thrown onto the roads, and rocks being smacked all over them and all about (inlcuding into innocent peoples yards). - I'd thought the small cricket bat used was plastic. It turns out in fact its wooden. A scaled-down cricket bat. Also useful as an illegal weapon against innocents. And it's being used once again to cover the road in stuff harmful to vehicles by bashing shit around and letting it land onto the road. - All deliberate. Now becoming an almost daily occurence.

One vehicle (amongst others) that had been steadily going on about the streets this morning, (lotsa traffic, moreso than usual), was a small one parked at the aboriginal CRIMINAL HOUSEHOLD for around an hour or more. And what was strange (strangeness as is common for there) was that nobody at all got out of the vehicle.

But VERY strangely was that all? (as many as 7-10) the criminal aboriginal kids suddenly started all appearing from out of the the aboriginal CRIMINAL HOUSEHOLD, and presenting themselves to the open front passenger window one-at-a-time, having a little 'chat', then going off before another one would replace it. Almost like an interviewing process was being done.

Was that because of the almost fatal incident of the toddler almost being run over by the huge truck yesterday? - I doubt it.

But in any case, they all were roaming about on the streets, despite the traffic, and what was also weird was that they were getting out of the way of traffic. Although there was one car that had to slow down almost to a stop as an aboriginal criminal kid refused to move until they had mounted a bicycle in the middle of the road that was too big/tall for them.

Eventually the other vehicle left the the aboriginal CRIMINAL HOUSEHOLD driveway and drove off. It was more like one of the endless ersatz 'relations' that was paying them a visit.

I wonder if any of the countless 'visits' had anything to do with the person shot dead by Police on Thursday in a nearby area who had wielded a shotgun before Police? - And a Police vehicle did pay the aboriginal CRIMINAL HOUSEHOLD a visit afterwards.

That seemed to have stirred up the aboriginals a bit.

I don't know if anyone else has noticed this, but there is are 'public relations' campaigns in the Australian media going on, a LOT of positive 'spin stories', and feel-good bullshit, as well as excuse stories. And there's a schedule of such stories being released into the news.

Here's one:---

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-04-19/girls-academy-helping-young-aboriginal-women-school-career/8414436

In the story it is alleged that the poor dear aboriginal females (who are always used in media stories because they are more accepted by the public than aboriginal males), are so very terrbly hard done by and their lives being ruined because they are 'forced' (although the word is not used) to not go to any education or schooling because they have to stay-at-home to 'care' for domestic duties of aboriginal households, and to also care for the other (amny) aboriginal kids. (again no mention is carefully made about the multitudes of mini-criminals constantly being spawned and taught to become criminals that they are supposed to 'take care' of.)

Ahhhh......so is THAT the simple (bullshit) reason why the aboriginal toddler in a diaper was sitting in the midle of the road and almost run over by a huge truck? - I doubt that as a reason and so should you.

I really wish I had've been able to take a photo of the scene. It would have made a lot of media publications and possibly made it worldwide. -- But it would also have been subverted and used as excuses and for the hammering of yet more demands being made by greedy shitheads, and for yet more departmental, governmental, and all sorts of other vested interests. -- It's a wonder there isn't free alcohol and illegal drugs being trucked-in to the shitheads, and all dresssed up as taking care of 'social concerns'.

It's truly astounding how shitheads will take a factual incident and turn it into what THEY want, rather than what was the truth of the incident in the first place.

By the way, I was distracted from writing this by some of the constantly roaming aboriginals on the streets again and making lotsa noise again and again and again.....

And what was strange (for some of them today), was that at one point this morning was that aborignal adults were 'responsibly' walking on the footpaths rather than the roads that always walk on at any and all hours of any day. And of course there was the traditional big plastic bottle of coca cola being carried along. - That also comes in handy to add booze to it and drink in the streets.

There are things that stops ordinary innocent citizens from making valid complaints and so on (to Police etc), and that is that they are never believed and indeed are themselves then falsley accused.

And it creates despair to a degree you have no idea of.

For a person who tells the truth is always never believed, but the ones that lie and shout (and riot) loudest, are always believed at the expense of everything else. And then they demand more and more and more....and get it.....

Later, around midday noon, there was even more traffic in the streets. And one of those was a large truck. The types that carry huge removeable metal bins on the back of them as used in construction sites and so on for waste, and for large domestic waste uses and bulk waste use.

That truck came along today loaded with a bin to deliver to an innocent resident. (are the residents being forced to move out as well by the criminal aboriginals?)

Whilst all this was going on, the streets were of course filled with aboriginals.

Two of the aboriginals were all about the newest house and in the yard property at the end of Kalara Way (next door to the empty security fenced-in evicted aboriginal drug dealer house). And the two were starting to tear off the security warning signs affixed to the security fencing. Utterly feral.

The fact that there were no vehicles parked in the new residents driveway had emboldened them.

And since the postman (on his motorbike) had just been delivering mail about the area, the abo's were also eagerly going through the mailboxes to steal what they could.

This in essence was a time-sequence I've written already about, of a LOT of different things all happening at the same time. A 'plague' of events occuring.

As the security signs were starting to be ripped from the fencing, there was a shout from somewhere to stop the hell what they were doing.

Cue bullshit excuses indignantly shouted back intermixed with bullshit declaration of being innocent despite still trying to perform crime.....

The big truck carrying the removable waste container on the back then drives into all of this on the road. It instantly becomes the focus of all attention, not the least because the driver can also be a witness to anything.

The shitheads rush off away from that area away from the evicted aboriginal drug dealer place, cross the road, and start going crazy at the aboriginal CRIMINAL HOUSEHOLD instead with mad crazy shoutings and so on. - Like everything, anything that is occuring they demand MUST be for their benefit.

There is a huge pile of dead branches on the street verge of the aboriginal CRIMINAL HOUSEHOLD overflowing onto the road which has laid there for weeks and weeks since they out them there themselves. (it is also a massive fire hazard now), especially since the criminal aboriginals are prone to lighting fires.

They of course expect all of it to be removed by somebody else. It's how they exist. Create a problem. Get somebody else to fix their problem. And reward them for starting the problem in the first place.

The big truck was of the scale and power of yesterdays truck. - It's surprising the aborignal toddler in a diaper wasn't sitting ON the street surface as usual, as it was yesterday in the direct close proximity in front of yesterdays oncoming truck.

Todays big truck carrying that removable big metal bin on its back, paused at the start of Kalara Way street, as the driver tried to confirm where he was and which house to deliver the big bin to. - The aboriginals became more rabid and noisy.

Some of the rabid aborignals ran along ON the road beside the big moving truck and tried to jump on it. The innocent driver put on speed and roared up the street, turned around at the "T" intersection with Kalara Road street, and drove back down Kalara Way street.

The truck, navigated it's way on the road, backing into a neighbours yard, and then dropped-off a bin there, and picked another one up full of refuse. Just something which is normal, but which the criminal aboriginals complicate matters tremendously.

It drove out and onto Kalara Way street, and started to drive away, but then the truck itself was started to be attacked by an aboriginal with a big wooden stake. (Think of a mad crazed aboriginal attacking a metal dinosaur and you might get the idea). The driver sped up and drove away. And of course teh innocent driver will tell others, perhaps fellow co-worker or family but none of that makes the NEWS, and so like so many countless incidents, it won't be known about by the majority who blithely go on believing the garbage put out by aboriginal 'public relations' orientated stories.

If you thik that this incident is a one-off and can be brushed aside, then rememeber this, as I stated last year.....a big truck (a cement truck I think it was) was innocently making it's way on Kalara Way street. - Then, as it began to go past the aboriginal CRIMINAL HOUSEHOLD, aboriginals rushed out and jeered at it as if it was (a big metal dinosaur they were hunting), and one even struck out at the passing cement truck as it passed very close by them with a big wooden stake and he hit the vehicle.

But if all of these events, and the countless more, never makes the 'NEWS' that you read, then you dear reader can simply pretend they never happened. But they DID happen and they DO keep happening.

I REALLY wish that toddler in a diaper had've been run over yesterday as it was sitting there ON the road but I would pity the poor driver. The aboriginal mafia would be upon the innocent driver and spin stories and lie to achieve what they wanted out of it all. It's what they do with everything.

Wet weather IS coming. So promises the feeble West Australian weather department yet again. "Possible showers or storm" they are forcasting for several days starting from Friday until Monday. And on each day they (because of past public outrages of useless forecasting), the weather department now attaches a percentage point (of probability occuring) to any weather forecast.

It's quite handy that for the now because they can continue being so wrong about so much, and they can always just brush it all off as if it was some sort of gambling percentage.

ie.....

Friday: Possible shower or storm. Chance of any rain: 40%

Saturday: Possible shower or storm. Chance of any rain: 40%

Sunday: Shower or two. Possible storm. Chance of any rain: 50%

Monday: Possible shower or storm. Chance of any rain: 30%

And what's worse is that none of it applies in reality to this hellhole area. Despite the above forecast for the region which IS just 3kms away, (1.8 miles away)..... the weather predictions (ala crystal ball gazing) does not apply here. Nor does law.

I mention the state of the weather because of two or three things......terrible pain, everything is dying or dead and very ripe for fires and arson, and the dust over everything and in everything blows around until there is enough 'rain' upon this hellhole to keep the dust down.

And one last thing in addition....the roads will eventually become wet and very slippery. And as was the daily occurence last year, the rabid aboriginals will be all out upon the roads just as much as they were then. And innocent drivers will be met with them crazily on the roads as the rabids 'play' on the roads and literally use roads as playgrounds. Literally.

That should spawn a new batch of public relations bullshit NEWS stories I'm sure.

It's a wonder that the departments haven't yet organised driving lessons for pre-schooler aboriginals and aboriginal toddlers, so that when they steal innocent peoples cars and careen about in them, that the dear innocent car thieving aboriginals don't hurt themselves. And of course there WILL be deaths on the roads because of them. And thereafter (as always) will be the raft of excuses such as the indignant demands made of Police....'Stop chasing our children!" (the children are in stolen cars)

Every now and again, (as there was recently), stories of aboriginal 'kids' driving stolen cars on the road, and the Police when capturing them are 'astounded' that the 'driver' was a little aboriginal kid. The spin on the NEWS story is then taken as if somehow the kid has magical powers to perform it all. And the events are all downplayed and quickly erased. Never a thought or concern is ever made of those who the car was stolen from, and who's innocent life has very probably made very much worse. That has been the habit of NEWS stories for ages now. Glorify the perpetrators, ignore victims.
