fine. fine! i am putting your gay mafia show on my 'to watch next' list. it's right after the latest season of the bear, if my roommates don't overrule me. i will report back

This show has it all: queer neurodivergent 30-something minors with anxiety, found family, girlbosses, body positivity (#bald), breathtaking urban vistas, and an ethnically diverse cast from every corner of Italy.

[her-satanic-wiles]

i've seen some dumb anti shit in my time, but man, 'if you don't write about using condoms in your smut, you're promoting unsafe sex' is a very special kind of deranged. my head hurts.

No, tell me about it. Like, I hope they stretched before they reached that high, man. Jumping through hoops to sustain a puritanical culture or some shit but I'm so over it.

hey sorry to barge into your ask box-- insane edits, btw! but you seem like you'd know how to do this and i am Very Bad at tumblr. how on earth do you get images to post in an even nine-panel grid instead of whatever stupid bullshit tumblr is trying to do?? i am tearing my hair out

hey!! feel free to barge in whenever, and thank you :D if you're talking about a 3x3 grid of images (like i've made under the cut) then that's definitely possible, tumblr allows a max of 3 in a row. you can either add each image separately or select all at once from your folder, then drag & drop them into place. works fine for me on both desktop and the app. if you've already tried this then idk what the problem could be for you, sorry :/ tumblr does mess it up sometimes

edit: WELL. i tried to put the images under the cut but as soon as i saved the draft, they all separated out into one image per row. it's only when i removed the readmore that they acted as they should and i'm still not certain everyone will see it that way ... is that the issue you had?

[kapreday]

so are you guys hiring?

It’s a local racial affinity org, so unless you speak Vietnamese fluently in Philly or Camden our hiring is closed for a bit!

However, just because we are really pushing this experimental model of work doesn’t mean we’re the ONLY people pushing for new kinds of labor- one really cool national org is called “Training for Change”, and a lot of the different organizations that work with them are also experimenting with new models of what education or the work week can look like! Similar to Training for Change is “Spadework” but I’m less personally familiar. Also in the non-profit world post-pandemic there are a lot of restructuring organizations that both hire and support existing organizations with taking steps towards more experimental and permissive workplace structures instead of more traditional capitalistic ones. I think the one we used was simply called “My Healthy Organization” but I’m aware of a few others.

But honestly the biggest indicator of work culture at our workspace is we CELEBRATE rest. We hold parties for our members going on sabbatical that count toward work hours. We chat genuinely about what we’re doing after work and on weekends as part of our meetings. We’re honest when we don’t feel like being “on” and then slow the pace of those meetings way down until they’re just virtual coworking with or without cameras. If we notice a coworker struggling through it we invite them to take a midday nap and just flex the time to later. Some of us still overwork, but that’s seen as a detriment to the health of ourselves and our org and so we give them grace but force them to eventually take that time back as time off. None of our time off is optional. It’s all about workplace culture that treats people like people instead of transactions, and honestly even if your work is hostile to these kinds of things it’s the sort of value that you can hold in a workplace that begins to change the workplace culture by value of changing your relationship to the labor.

Another world is possible.

Demon Copia inspired by amazing @brihemoth's design.

[ghuleh-recs]

hi! i'm a new Ghost fan and i would love to get some fic recs since i don't know where to start. 😊 i'm pretty much open to anything but something with lots of feelings (hurt/comfort), Papa IV x someone, and around 15,000 words would be great. thank you in advance 🧡

hellooo! welcome to our little satanic corner of tumblr!! i'm so sorry this took me so long—i had a tough time finding fics that matched your criteria. i hope it's okay that i focused on "feelings" more so than hurt/comfort specifically. definitely give these writers a follow if you haven't already. (i also wasn't sure what you meant by "x someone" so i threw in a mix of x reader, x ghoul, and x oc.) feel free to dm me or send another ask if i didn't get it right this time! i can also point you towards a bunch of fantastic writers ♡

recs under the cut!

x ghouls

paper armor - @ratballet - copia x dewdrop

“Horns,” Aether says quickly, like the words in his mouth are searing him. “It’s his horns.” He spares a glance at Dewdrop’s door, like he’s afraid he might be pressed up against it, listening. “He’s shedding them." Dewdrop is shedding his horns. Copia tries to help.

Steadfast Love, Not Sacrifice - @st-danger - copia x aether x dewdrop

It’s a bit like a shark smelling blood, he thinks as they follow close behind. It's natural they were going to want to taste it, too. “Well,” Copia says, “some of us need our beauty sleep.” He hesitates, and then proceeds to look nervously between the two of them and continue, “I meant me, of course. You two are already very, erm. I should go to bed.” It’s such a flimsy excuse. The elevator reaches the third floor before any of them speak again. Aether clears his throat. “You don’t want to though.” Copia looks very called out, but can’t do much more than stare, before realizing the two ghouls beside him are waiting for an actual answer of some kind. The elevator beeps as it passes the fourth floor. “No,” Copia says slowly, and Aether’s stomach does a little swoop. “I don’t.” Or, Sometimes the reward is worth the risk. *No Man Taketh From is another favorite of mine with Papa IV and Aether.

x reader

A Message From the Bulletin Board - @writingjourney - copia x reader

The ministry’s bulletin board, ordinarily used for missing items or party announcements, contains a particularly interesting request this week – a lonely hearts ad. Or: You and Copia are secretly crushing on each other. You both have to reach maximum desperation before you make a move. * if you're in it for the long haul PLEASE read I Knew Nothing But Shadows THE hurt/comfort fic of all time. you won't regret it.

Confessional - @da-rulah - copia x reader

As a sister of sin, it was your duty to confess at least once a month, to have your sins praised by a higher up member of the clergy. But you only ever chose Thursday nights, when you knew he was on duty. And tonight, you were working up the courage to confess your darkest sin - the dreams you had been having… *check out Rituale Septem while you're at it. lotsss of feelings but with Papa III, instead.

x OC

sweeter red - @anamelessfool - copia x oc

Your kiss so sweet, your sweat so sour…sometimes I’m thinking that I love you... but I know it’s only lust. Copia is a scrungly little nerd and this totally happened to him. There's something about Cardinal Marian. Maybe it's the way she infuriates him with her laissez-faire attitude, or ingnites his soul with envy of her free spirit. Rage and love, at a certain point they merge together into an overwhelming burning in the heart and mind: passion.

you found the ache in my argument (series) - @the-lisechen - copia x oc

In which two reasonable people from different religious disciplines have a conversation. (A study in faith, hope, and love.)

𖤐 you know the drill--bookmark, read, leave kudos and/or comments!

[gravehags]

Hewwo :3

Could you drop your most random Copia headcanon? Like, anything at all that it just makes you go "that's so him"

i’ll give you a few!

• hates tomatoes - loves pasta sauce but whenever primo tries to get him to eat the little cherry tomatoes he grows in the ministry garden copia starts gagging (he’s just like me fr) terzo would chase him around as a kid trying to purposely make him sick

• before he was sent to the vatican city of the ministry (which i hc as being in the new england countryside) he was stationed in basel, linköping, avignon, and of course rome, where he was born. because of this he’s pretty accomplished at picking up languages but it’s also the reason he never felt like he had roots til he met curator reader

• cannot keep a plant alive to save his life, much to primo’s dismay

• his cologne is jackal by goest perfumes (thank you @the-lisechen!) which was gifted to him by secondo for his 48th birthday

EDIT: upon further consultation with @the-lisechen i’m adding silent films, also by goest perfumes, as an option for copia’s scent of choice

something about there being an almost dandy-like opening with the herbal notes which lead into something darker and more smoky and leathery…yeah absolutely. i’ve smelled both and can say that either one works great for him!

I was talking to @the-lisechen and now i’m curious

3 facts about me wahoo

Thank you @kissingghouls for the @!! Hmm let's see...

1. According to my 2DS time log, I have over 350 hours in pokemon omega ruby. I dont have answers. I assume I replayed it an insane amount of times because as far as I know there's less than 50 hours of content in the main story.

2. For some reason evil doctors in fiction frequently have my name

3. If I were to ever own another parakeet, I'd want it to be solid yellow and I'd name it mayonnaise which could be shortened to mayo or may

Tagging @vaultbuggo, @the-lisechen, and @16speed :))
