[crossbackpoke-check]

nosy anon again making a return because i think what my brain did was read that i helped find some kind of writing and then did not fully process what the writing was?? but upon rereading i am very intrigued if you ever get the urge to share i will be all eyes/ears/senses required to enjoy things!!

I GET TO DO WIP WEDNESDAYYYYYY!!! the writing exists mostly in the form of a tag (fantastic! 'verse) and also a thirty-two page doc of snippets and planning, so the sense you will be using most is imagination:

don't think i have ever actually formally written out anything about fantastic! 'verse but! the tl;dr of it is that it's a semi-college au: joel is still a hockey player for the lv phantoms, but morgan is a college student-athlete. it's incredibly relevant to the plot that joel falls in love with morgan in the check-out line of a wegman's, lies a little bit, and ends up going back to get his degree.

most of it is just good fun about college kids growing up, but i think there's a lot of parallels between making your way through a development system where traditional "success" isn't always guaranteed (ahl -> nhl, completion of higher education -> pursuit of a career) because that development system isn't always designed for you to "succeed" or have opportunities. heavy quotation marks around success because part of that struggle is learning what you want in life and how you define success. are your dreams achievable? are they still the same dreams you always used to have? it's infinite branching universes of would you still love me if i was a worm (ahl player forever) (a college dropout) (a college graduate) (older) (realizing the fallibility of your body) (uncertain of the future) (human).

My dear lgbt+ kids, 

When it comes to cold weather, the main rule (regardless of gender or presentation) is: when in doubt, choose warmth and safety over style. 

Some basics: 

Layering is your best friend: Start with moisture-wicking base layers to keep sweat off your skin. Follow with insulating layers (like fleece or wool), and finish with a weather-resistant outer layer (like a puffer jacket or waterproof coat) to protect against wind, snow or rain.

Keep your sensitive areas warm: Make sure your hands, feet, and head are covered! Gloves, warm socks and a beanie can prevent cold-related discomfort or injuries. 

Waterproof: If you're facing snow or rain, make sure your clothes are waterproof. Wet clothes lose their insulating ability, so staying dry is a big part of staying warm! 

Reflective Gear: If you’re out in the dark or in poor visibility conditions, consider adding reflective elements to your outfit for safety.

People can react differently to temperatures. A temperature that feels super cold to you could feel comfortable to someone else, depending on what you’re used to (and some other factors). As a very basic rule, we can say: Gloves, beanies, and other cold-weather accessories typically become necessary when temperatures drop below 40°F (4°C). In more severe cold (below 32°F (0°C)), it’s even more important to wear them to protect yourself from frostbite and maintain body warmth. But it goes even in milder weather: if you feel uncomfortable or if it’s windy or damp, it’s a good idea to add these items for extra comfort.

With all that being said: Clothes are not just for safety and temperature control, they also help you express yourself - and that doesn’t suddenly change in winter. 

Dressing for cold weather doesn’t have to mean sacrificing your personal look. Whether you want to present more feminine, more masculine, or more androgynous, here are some tips to help you layer up and feel like yourself: 

(Note that these are suggestions, not hard rules. Style is highly subjective as everyone has different tastes, preferences, body types, fashion inspirations, budgets, cultural influences etc. I could suggest something here that you’d feel super uncomfortable in - if so, that’s not a sign you’re “doing it wrong”! Cherry-pick what feels right and ignore the rest) 

If You Want to Present More Feminine

Base Layers: If you want to wear skirts or dresses in winter, start with thermal leggings or tights! These can be nicely paired with cozy, long-sleeved tops or lightweight thermal shirts. (But also keep in mind that plenty of women, cis or trans, do not wear dresses all the time! Nothing wrong with choosing jeans!) 

Outer Layers: There are plenty of styles to choose from that have a feminine touch, such as a belted trench coat, a pea coat, or a long wool coat. Shawls are also excellent for adding a touch of style while keeping you warm! 

Footwear: Knee-high or thigh-high boots lined with faux fur or fleece can keep your legs warm and add a polished look to your outfit. Ankle boots with thicker socks are also a good alternative.

Accessories: Scarves, gloves, and beanies can be both practical and stylish. Knit hats or earmuffs can add a soft, cozy vibe to your look.

Style Tip: Go for a mix of fabrics like wool, faux fur, and knitwear to create texture and warmth.

If You Want to Present More Masculine: 

- Base Layers: Start with thermal undershirts or moisture-wicking base layers. Consider long underwear for added insulation beneath your pants.

- Outer Layers: There’s plenty of outerwear to choose from, like a puffer jacket, parka, or wool overcoat! (Faux) Leather or bomber jackets layered over sweaters can also add a masculine edge while keeping you warm.

- Footwear: You might want to opt for sturdy boots, such as work boots, Chelsea boots, or combat boots. Thicker socks can keep your feet warm.

- Accessories: Don’t skip out on scarves, beanies, or gloves for being ��too feminine”. They can actually be great for adding a more rugged feel to your outfit! You just gotta find a color and style that fits you well. 

Style Tip: Focus on layering in a way that adds structure. Sweaters, button-ups, and jackets work great together for a sharp, put-together look. Play with dark, neutral tones and thick fabrics like wool or denim for extra warmth and style.

If You Want to Present Androgynous

- Base Layers: Neutral-colored thermal tops or turtlenecks can serve as great foundational pieces. You may want to pair these with straight-leg or loose-fitting pants that allow room for layering underneath.

- Outer Layers: Oversized coats, puffer jackets, or long trench coats can work well for an androgynous look. Try layering with oversized sweaters or fleece pullovers for extra warmth.

- Footwear: You could go for sneakers, lace-up boots, or loafers paired with warm, thick socks. But really, any pair of shoes can work for an unisex outfit. 

- Accessories: Neutral-colored scarves, simple beanies, and fingerless gloves can add to an androgynous look. Minimalist accessories like oversized scarves or gender-neutral caps are both practical and stylish.

Style Tip: Aim for a balanced mix of structured and relaxed pieces. Try loose layers on top with more fitted pants, or vice versa, to create an effortless, warm, and non-gendered appearance.

With all my love, 

Your Tumblr Dad

I’m 32 years old. I’ve got no money and no prospects, but I do have 18 years of being a marauders fan gathered up here in my hippocampus. I have been here since the very beginning. I was there when the fandom was turned upside down by the Snape’s Worst Memory chapter. I was in the trenches during the snily wars when The Princes Tale chapter was published. I have watched this fandom grow and diversify in the best ways possible. However, I am here today to promise you that James Potter didn’t have eyes for anyone but Lily Evans his entire life. He would do anything for her. He loved and believed in her so much that he died for her, for the product of their love. There are 4100 pages that you can get this information from. Thank you for coming to my tedtalk.

portraits of the vatore siblings [in-game wall art]

I'm having a lot of fun putting the Vatores in period clothes, so I made some renders of them dressed up in 1890s-1940s clothing and threw them into that big frame from Vampires.

download [sfs]

This was a pretty big project: 3 cc wall art pieces covering 6 decades of fashion with 12 separate outfits, which resulted in 18 individual renders and 144 total swatches. Also, the frame itself is huge. I prefer them sized down (shift + [ in buy mode) but they are 100% the type to own larger-than-life portraits of themselves.

My hc is that the Vatores were born in the late 1930s/early 1940s, so imo they aren't actually old enough to have worn any of these clothes when they were first in style. I think they dressed up like it’s old times and took a buncha pictures just to confuse people trying to figure out how old they really are. Sibling bonding!

Included below are all 18 renders, with cc and full color below the cut.

SEATTLE KRAKEN

FANTASY HOCKEY AU : 2 / 32

NOTES :

(the basis of this au is that gods and magic rule NHL teams. magic surround teams and their players. gods take sacrifices in the forms of wins , fights , blood spilled on the ice , etc.)

- the kraken's gods are freshly reawakened, having stayed dormant for decades. they rule the deep sea and dark corners of trenches. wriggling masses of tentacles and deep sea creatures

- their magic thrums steadily, sometimes crackling with the renewed energy and vigor in it

- kraken players have an odd glow about them, a sort of bioluminescence that they carry around. they have cloudy pupils that often look unseeing and empty, although don't be fooled by it. they still see everything

- some are likened to sirens with their strangely alluring qualities, like something human but too pale and unnerving. their bioluminescence is often intriguing, drawing other players in before attacking, like an anglerfish.

(they don't ACTUALLY attack people , it's usually just slashing or fighting or any sort of increased physicality in their play)

It's always interesting seeing what Obama will eventually say on matters of the democratic party.

He's very cautious to speak on events, allowing the party to find its own way.

In part, I think it's because of just how horrible Obama's two terms were for Democrats.

Obama saw Democrats suffer the largest loss of power down ballot since Eisenhower.

2008 Democrats controlled both chambers of 27 states.

2016 only 13.

Democrats lost control in Wisconsin, North Carolina, Iowa, and West Virginia. Kentucky's House flipped for the first time in almost 100 years.

They lost a net 13 Governorships, 816 state legeslative seats, 12 US Senate seats, and 64 US House seats.

In 2010, they lost 6 US Senate seats.

63 US House seats.

In 2014, they lost a staggering 9 Senate seats and another 13 House seats.

And when they did have wins, it wasn't nearly comparable to the severe bleeding out of down-ballot power.

When Trump was sworn in, the GOP controlled 32 state legislatures (both chambers) and 33 Governorships.

It's a rather black mark on his legacy.

Make no mistake, Obama's two terms saw huge wins as well, and the most long-last and consequential changes in America in decades.

Obamacare, Dodd-Frank, historic judges placed on federal benches. The Constitutional right to marry for gays. Hell, a complete and total 180 on LGBT+ rights for the democratic party that had previously been extremely cautious about embracing even JUST equal marriage rights.

(Biden helped significantly, too, as he kinda accidentally came out in support of it before his boss had announced his own --and by extension the Executive Branch's support, like refusing to defend the Defense of Marriage Act in court, repealing Dont Ask Dont Tell, etc).

The Obama-Biden era doesn't get nearly enough credit in hindsight for how significantly they pushed the Democratic Party into it's modern form or just how quickly that change happened.

We would never be even talking about the rights of trans Americans without winning the first victories for marriage, Healthcare, etc.

There's still much to do sure, but fighting for rights is a marathon, not a sprint. We expand, we defend our arguments in Congress, in Court, and in the public, we win, we dig in, and we advance again. We build coalitions.

Expanding rights in America isn't a blitzkrieg, it's trench-warfare.

As a mer with any basic morals, what mini gods are capable of is terrifying. I have heard so many stories about poor castles being cursed because they defend themselves from an unprovoked attack from a minigod. No creature should have the ability to damn someone or a whole castle to a cruel fate because they defended themselves or an offence out of their control.

However, as a petty bitch-

A list of things that I have learnt about/was told by the thirteen year old boy that has recently been staying at our castle with his mother (with every single thing being confirmed as being true):

-His mother threatened the leaders from their original castle that she would cut off their HEADS if they ever came near her son again cause they were treat him like shit. It should be mentioned that she said this TO THEIR FACES in front of THE ENTIRE CASTLE

-His first sword fighting pupil is a cursed prince (from what I’ve heard from his mother, his pupil is basically a big brother to him now)

-Also, his first pupil happens to be the beacon’s BOYFRIEND???

-AND HIS PUPIL IS FRIENDS WITH TWO OF OUR RULERS HERE, ONE OF WHICH IS MY OWN QUEEN???

-He could probably beat every guard at my castle in a fight

-He has broken a grown man’s arm so badly it popped in the other direction because he made fun of him and his pupil

-His mother was almost kidnapped by a giant trench monster in the God Mouth

-He stabbed said trench monster in the eye to save his mother

-He has recently fought an evil witch

-Him and his mother have also recently met the beacon

The Bootes Contradiction ~ 25 Sep 2024, Philip Sedgwick

Before diving in, a Vimeo recording (1 hr. 32 min) of the interview with Sasha Ravich during the AstroMajic event is now available. This is a limited time offer. The video will only be available for viewing through 8 November. For the price of an afternoon matinee, you can tune in to hear the source story of Galactic Astrology, what can be perceived with Galactic phenomena and more. Here’s the link to order the interview and other galactic products and consultations. And now, onto the post.

On or about 09 October, the Sun passes the degree of the Bootes Void (estimated for 2025, 16 Libra 40 / 57 N 50). On or about 10 October, the Sun to Bootes Supercluster (estimated for 2025 18 Li 09 / 34 N 53).

This is more than a fine kettle of fish; this is a most curious contradiction. First, a few background details for perspective. In space there exist eighteen defined superclusters. A supercluster is a collection of galaxies and stars gravitationally compressed into a small region of space. These are spaces of incredible object density. In space there are also three (possibly more, depending upon source material) defined void regions in space. These are areas in which objects appear not so much, thus a void.

Curiously, when projected on the ecliptic the Bootes Void and the Bootes Supercluster coexist in virtual conjunction separated by about a degree and a half of longitude. Looking vertically relative to ecliptic, the void stands about thirteen degrees above the supercluster. This is most fascinating. Two objects seemingly portraying opposite sides of the Bootes nature share virtually the same place on the ecliptic.

Any individual with a connection to the Bootes Void simultaneously enjoys a connection with the Bootes Supercluster.

To personify one of the maladies of Libra, one must make a decision which entity one wishes to portray and when. Or must they? Can a person have it both ways?

A bit about Bootes in clustering the myths together. In ancient lore Bootes was a herdsman (a goddess according to the Egyptians) with an ingenious streak. Bootes is credited with inventing the plough (plow). This creation won great favor with the goddess of agriculture, Ceres, and earned him a place in the heavens upon his death. His agricultural chops also won favor with Dionysus, keeper of the sacred wine, for obvious reasons. Also, Bootes kept the pole stars in check, as part of his flock - a Libran balancing act requiring great attention.

Within Bootes’ nature there is fertility, ingenuity, an ability to arbitrate the position of opposing entities and skill at keeping the flock together. With little imagination, these attributes certainly translate to useable talents that can be applied in the real world or online (implying only a more etheric, nebulous quality to all things done in the realm of cyber).

This fosters the question, should one choose to portray the demonstrated skill sets of Bootes in life, or would slipping into the void be a better option? Is there a more correct option? Perhaps this is like one who cultivates great knowledge that may help the world, and chooses to sit on a mountain top meditating and praying for the world to evolve. Perhaps this is like one who cultivates great knowledge that may help the world and chooses to get in the thick of it with all the people of the world and work in the trenches to ensure a positive outcome for the planet.

A few considerations deserve percolation while deciding which option best suits ones dharmic disposition.

For diving into the void:

Ensure that there is no embarrassment, false humility or imposter syndrome impacting the choice. Know that ones potency is felt with equal intensity while in the void. Recognize the sensation of ghosting felt by others in your absence. Create mitigation communication to abate the disruption caused by this effect. Agree to use ones non physical presence in all known impactful matters. Cultivate a clear intentional focus for life objectives and influence. Master instantaneous, at-a-distance energy transfer methods.

For utilizing the assets of a supercluster

Check that one has no agenda of creating favor or influence as a result of ones talents. Function from the standpoint that when the world becomes a better place because of ones action, life in the world is more palatable and less stressful. Use no gravitational or cosmic influence with the agenda of personal gain... realizing that a betterment of one life likely results from so doing... it’s simply not the intention behind the action. Decide to become a master in perceiving interpersonal energy dynamics and reporting those intricacies to those struggling to maintain personal independence or those mired within the influence of another.

Soon, the Sun transits the Bootes degrees, applying unapologetic attention to the Bootes effect. Will a person choose engagement or withdrawal, or perhaps they feel differing urges at different times? The Sun should ensure that all urges are clear, and hopefully, promptly engaged.

Regardless of the mode of life involvement chosen, recognize engagement, direct or indirect, is in progress. Establish personal energetic intention to support either mode and engage fully and without reservation or hesitation. If the mode of engagement selected presents a radical change of life operational dynamics, consider informing those in your personal sphere of your decision. This ensures that no unwanted energy threads get directed toward you, regardless of your engagement or disengagement.

Is there a convergence zone in which both polarities can exist much like the pole stars Bootes oversaw? Can one change modes of operation over the course of a solar transit? Perhaps. Keep in mind that these degrees of Libra possess extreme drawing power... a.k.a. charisma and charm of the highest order. Once a person taps into the gravity of these degrees, others will be inexplicably captivated by their words, thoughts and actions... and they will not take kindly to being dismissed once engaged.

Is this contradiction Hamlet personified? To be or not to be...? Perhaps the reframe states: To Bootes or not to Bootes... that is the question.

More soon.

There’s nothing like the time of Libra for a cosmic reality check with the transits to create alignment with what one wants to accomplish and how others perceive accomplishment efforts. Whether a half-hour, full-blown session or sequence of sessions, the transits and discovery of galactic intricacies assist the cause. For those wanting to pose a question or two, that’s an option. So is ordering a Galactic Report or diving into the Galactic Trilogy.

For the character ask game, I need to know: 32 for Angeal and 43-44 for Genesis?

Ooo I love these! Ty for the ask!!!

32. If you could make this character a meal, what would you make them?

Well there’s really only a few things I know how to make (well at least), so I’d probably just make him my favorite—salmon, seasoned with lemon pepper! It’s my mom’s recipe, so I think he’d enjoy that, and it is very good. With some of my mom’s sweet tea and some apple slices with caramel on the side, of course.

43. What type of weather makes you think of this character?

Hmm this is a bit of a hard one actually…I think I have a couple different answers. For one, the huge dramatic storms we have here that you can see best when you drive out to the middle of nowhere, rolling in over the plains and giving a delightful sense of impending doom—below are the best pictures I’ve ever gotten of one of them, and it even has a rainbow to boot (the pictures when we were actually in the storm do not do it justice of just how pitch black it was with huuuge lightning)! Just fits his dramatic nature; I think he’d love prophesying doom on the wings of one of them, wings of light and dark spread afar, of course. Also a case can be made for his temper brewing like a storm and whatnot, and the power of nature.

But then also a quiet night with clear stars and plenty of fireflies. Couldn’t resist putting him there in the first chapter of this fic. It’s the sweeter side of his personality he doesn’t show as often, the idyllic Banoran childhood, the dramatic side of him in a more quiet and romantic light. Just enjoying life as much as he can, happiness trapped in a single moment of beauty.

44. Which season makes you think of this character?

Autumn. Definitely. The red hues everywhere, the overcast skies, the winds blowing perfectly to billow out a dramatic cloak or trench coat (I speak from experience hehehe). The firey display of all nature’s glory, right before it fades into sickness and death.
