CHANGLINGS R IN THE BOOK AND THEY ARE DISGUSTING WOW
(Putting this book illustration under the cut cuz it genuinely is gross guys this is ur only warning)
Lowkey glad my copy had this in black and white wtf
If you asked me to use only one piece of art from the book to summarize it, it would be this one, it just... captures the essence of everything perfectly
The perfect mix of comedic-ness and horror 🤌 like okay gross why did I have to see you coughing up your organs but also why are you staring at me like that sir blobfish looking ass
obligated Blinky highlight, he's so gross <3 I need to write a hit piece on him at some point would anyone be interested (I will likely do it eitherway)
#want you all to know i am giggling and kicking my feet as i read this#this book is everything to me#this meets all my standards#everyone clap ur hands for chapter 22 right here#my ramblings#trollhunters#WHERE R MY TROLLHUNTER BOOK FANS AT#I NEED YOUUUUUUUUU

Maybe the problem with Christian fiction is that it's non-denominational. People are just "Christian", with no effort put into showing what practicing that religion looks like for them specifically. No indication that there are other Christians who could have different beliefs. No wrestling with differing ideas and the struggle of how one should live out their Christian faith. And that makes it unrealistic and unrelatable.
#me reading any christian historical fiction set in england: why are none of these gentry anglican??#they ARE all anglican and if they are not it is extremely plot and character relevant you can't just have them using evangelical buzzwords#but i'm also thinking of this because i started another charlotte yonge book#that is by far my favorite of the things of hers that i've read#because it has characters who have different upbringings and religious opinions#instead of just 'here's a bunch of high church anglicans judging people who don't live up to their victorian standard'#you have the very high church anglican rector whose wife is worldly but still a very good person#the girl raised in a very strict protestant family who is more scrupulous than the anglicans but is still recognized as a good person#you have people who are trying to work out the nuances of different issues#and that makes it so much more realistic and so much easier to integrate into the story#(the politics though are hilarious)#(most of the classics that survive are the ones that were 'ahead of their time' in politics)#(so it's equally fascinating and refreshing and a bit infuriating to see one that is very very of its time with regards to women's rights)#('why did this woman get up at the meeting and explain her very good ideas for rebuilding after the fire? she should have had a man do it')#(meanwhile i'm just screaming 'why on earth SHOULDN'T she???')#(it's almost enough to make a feminist of me)

Curly Haired Binghe X Had A Curly Haired Younger Sister Shen Yuan has my whole heart
he was prepared to handle (bing)meimei's hair, not his own!! these xianxia standards are BS !!
#i do love any headcanon that has sy carefully taking care of lbh's hair tho#esp if it's binggeyuan and maybe bingge has been trying to keep his hair straight bc that's the Standard or w/e#and now he has sy to spoil him...#i also am fond of the idea of sy having No Idea how to handle curly hair at all but going out of his way to learn#although his thin face would probably require that he pretends he already knew#sy: “it's whatever - i only know bc my meimei has curly hair”#lbh upon meeting sy's younger sister who has pin-straight hair: “omg... he DOES love me...”#svsss meme#svsss

A mother's word for word transcription of the imaginary phone call her four-year-old made to Santa Claus in 1911.
(source: The Harbor Beach Times, December 22, 1911.)
Through some outrageous case of serendipity I found a recording of another phone call this same child made 60 years later. Though I have to say his choice of conversational partner is a definite downgrade from the first call.
#I've started using 'our bees are all dead' as my standard filler during lulls in conversation#and no I am not kidding#that is actually 64 year old George Arthur Lincoln in the recording#I'm writing up a bio of him that will hopefully be up within a few days#because this kid grew up to be involved in Forrest Gump levels of 20th century historical events#he was the youngest american general in wwii and was involved in the strategy of d-day and the planned invasion of Japan#he was at yalta and potsdam#he started a social sciences department at West Point#which resulted in his students being called commies because why should soldiers study culture and economics instead of shoot gun at thing#he ended up as the director of the office of emergency preparedness while nixon was president - hence the phone call#this poor man had to sit through so many meetings with Henry Kissinger#his younger brother (Waunce from the letter) was also a general#they were known as 'big abe' and 'little abe'

me updating my ex phannie friends on dnp every once in a while:
[simplified] video ID: youtubers dan and phil in the top right corner of a sims game loading page with auto-captions saying “meanwhile on homosexuals”
#video description under cut#dnp#dan and phil#phan#yeet my deet#a full image description would have all of the text on screen + description of dnp and images on loading page#so my little image description would not meet the standards that people who rely on image descriptions deserve#if there’s anyone in the phandom who uses them let me know and i’ll up my game and also bully (not really) phannies about accessibility#phannie accessibility let’s gooo#especially bc dnp suck at it i’m still waiting for captions on several videos#danandphilgames#dapg#dan howell#amazingphil#daniel howell#phil lester#yeet my deenp#bog#captioned video

it's been pointed out on here before that a lot of terf arguments are actually rooted in sexist idealology that feminists fought and died to unnormalise decades ago and that's its own kettle of fish but one thing i also find very frustrating about this so called 'radical' feminism is that it's so... defeatist? like the moment you categorically label an entire section of society as Bad and Inherently Evil then there's also the implication that nothing can be done about it, and it completely takes all accountability away. saying all men are evil is just another way of saying boys will be boys. he raped her because he's a man. he hit her because he's a man. he didn't listen because he's a man - it's almost offensively oversimplified. there's no point trying to fix this issue in society because men are just Like That, okay! so now what? it's not like they're going anywhere, so you just accept that 50% of the population are evil and will forever treat you terribly and there's nothing to be done about it bc they're biologically predisposed to it? like is that fr the argument here? you're soooo radical for that
#this is coming from someone who used to very genuinely be a misandrist#ironically it was only when i started actually analysing my own feminism that i got MORE confrontational with men#and started respecting my boundaries a lot better BECAUSE i started holding them accountable again#like when men treat me like shit nowadays i dont just write it off as 'what did you expect? he's a man' i get MAD about it#because i EXPECT BETTER FROM THEM even if it's just tiny shit women have to deal with daily#i hold them to just as high a standard as im held to and i make them take accountability when they dont meet that#and whether you realise it or not even on a subconscious level the MOMENT you black-and-white blanket statement all men as bad#you stop holding them accountable.#like it is literally just boys will be boys. do terfs seriously not realise they're sending feminism BACKWARDS#like if a girl came to me with her trauma and people - other girls no less - tried to comfort her with 'yeah all men are evil'#id be fucking furious. like no he did that because he was a piece of shit that had it normalised to him that women arent to be respected#dont you dare let him off the hook with something as simple and uncritical as 'he's a man'#i promise you men like that will MUCH prefer a blanket statement such as 'all men are as bad as each other'#than actually being point blank told they're an abuser or a rapist. because being lumped together is comfortable and even empowering#wheras isolating their behaviour with words that are Bad and Ugly (LIKE 'rapist') is not comfortable at all and has heavy connotations#idk i dont think radical feminism is always bad on its own it can be v liberating. just terfs and misandrists that i have a problem with#dropping this post in a piranha tank and closing tumblr knowing im gonna have some thirty year old karen yelling at me within 5 mins#i probably wont respond to any terf comments bc they literally mentally exhaust me with their stupidity#but that also depends on my mood and ability to keep my mouth shut LMFAO we shall see

Tom & B'Elanna give off closeted gay vibes in that I think if you asked them to describe their ideal woman and man they would respectively describe a swimsuit model (bonus: who's Not Like Other Girls) and the lead in some sort of romantic novel. Nothing even close to a real person. The most generic you can get about straight romantic and sexual attraction.
#B'Elanna would say that OR she'd just name some incredibly basic things that make you sad when you hear them#I can 1000% see a canon scene where B'Elanna is upset about random ensign guy not meeting her standards for a date#and everyone's of course of course of course like 'well YOUR standards aaare a little high B'Elanna' ha ha ha and B'Elanna's like#(she's upset but trying to work to take her mind off it) 'Is it SO hard to find a guy who-' then proceeds to list off basic things#the writers think women want and it's all soft romantic things and Tom's like (bc this is ostensibly a romance scene between them)#'B'Elanna are you serious?' (What???) 'If you went out with a guy like that you'd eat him alive. You need a guy who can keep up with#your-' (I swear to God if you say my temper.) '-Passion.' <- his hands are held defensively in the air and his tone is sarcastic. B'Elanna#is pointing a space wrench or something at him. she quickly pulls away. frustrated and embarrassed.#and everyone's like wow this a very good romantic scene we did that really well I think.#in reality the scene was B'Elanna being upset - Tom making fun of her and ignoring the fact that she's a romantic but in the writer's minds#its Tom being romantic and charming and signaling that he's interested in her

this is a long shot and i'm sorry to ask, but if you don't mind, can mutuals (or contacts or regulars... just... this community) of mine who aren't jumping ship like... let me know? will any of us still be here? is it over? i'm trying to know if this really is it or what's... even happening. i hate to reassurance seek but i'm feeling pretty miserable and confused.
edit: felt like i was being really pitiful and fragile making this but everybody is being so nice to me and responding so patiently with all your thoughts and i'm in tears of gratitude thank you thank you thank you 💖
#i glanced and thought they brought out a feature so that we could turn off ai access#that seemed... okay? i thought? but now i'm really confused. i don't know. i'm so tired and scared. i just can't... keep doing this#i know this is stupid but this feels like it's my fault.#it happens every time i find something. if i'm happy somewhere. it just.... poof. goes away. i'm sorry. i'm sorry. i'm sorry#on the edit: i would only *ever* think this about myself. double standards that i hold for myself are high. i expect emotional control#& performance from myself only. i would never think badly of anyone else being stressed about this or anything. thank you for your kindness#this community has been so beautiful and kind at every turn. i'm so grateful to get to be here and meet you all#okay... being really sappy now. y'all get to see my anxiety first hand today!! whee!! anyway. i'll get it together. haha! thank you.

everything the same but all of the coruscant guard troopers are werewolves
#they’re pulled from their base batches upon discovery of the lycanthrope gene expression#they were raised separately to the standard cadets#on kamino’s lunar base so they aren’t affected by the usual lunar cycle except#then they’re based on coruscant so they’re slightly agitated all of the time#and the corries are all raised as pack and their behaviours aren’t discouraged because it cements the units#so when their original batches meet the corries on 000 it’s like. why are you sniffing us. is that— what.#it’s fine vod i guess 000 Does Things to people right? i mean look at senators. just be glad to have the gang back together!#and maybe they’ve got like. a lot of time to work out?#then fox spots a crime in progress; sends a howl to his squad; and starts bounding down the street on all fours#cody to wolffe very dryly: yeah i saw senator organa do that just last week#star wars#the clone wars#clones clones clones#putting my blorbo in situations
