Art of Patroclus wearing Achilles’s armour that I did while writing an essay for my Greek and Roman Lit class last week

you know what I would really like to see from a season 2 of a new wish?

an episode/multiple episode arc where peri tries out human life with his parents and he’s super anxious and trying to do everything exactly right, while cosmo and wanda are way more lenient

(im imagining a scene where cosmo is dancing in the supermarket and peri is like “NO DAD YOURE GONNA GET US FOUND OUT” (to outsiders it just looks like a teenager getting embarrassed by his dad))

and eventually he learns that it’s okay to be weird and awkward and silly sometimes and making mistakes is actually more human than painstakingly following social rules all the time

Open letter to everyone silent on the pogram in LA yesterday (being Sunday, June 23rd), despite reblogging misinformation after misinformation about Israel’s unique evil:

I see you. I see how quiet you are. I see how afraid you are, how scary it is to comment on it, because of the backlash you might face for “not supporting the movement.” I see the indecision as you hover over the reblog button.

And I am calling you a coward for it.

How dare you refuse to acknowledge what is happening within your own movement. How dare you claim to be on the side of peace, and allow yourself to ignore what your own protesters are doing.

I see you, and I am disgusted with you.

ill probably delete this in a minute but ive just been fuckin boggled by what ive seen across tumblr in the last few days in particular. its why i havent really been around. like holy fucking shit, its really like some of yall just dont want a chunk of the trans community to exist. like some of yall are thisclose to saying it verbatum. way too many already have. 'shut up sit down be quiet and smile for us' type shit, gee where have i heard that before. oh yeah my entire life cause i was forcefully gendered as someones daughter. shock horror i know. you might be surprised to remember and/or learn that very few trans folks know theyre trans before we're 5, or even 10, and that that gendered experience stays with all of us in both/either small or large ways. either bc we literally dont have a solid identity yet (bc we're very small children), dont have the words, we're repressing it out of fear from how others will treat us, we're actually enjoying or enjoyed being another gender in our childhood, or we just genuinely didnt fuckin know until shit lined up later in life. weird isnt it that transmascs dont pop out as 6'1 brick shithouse cis men when we're born so yall know for certain that we're confused lost girls/women oops i mean big dangerous scary men. its almost like we're transgender too. none of yall actually know what intersectionality is or means

How old do you think the turtle tots are in the comics/art you've shown? (like, roughly, how it's their development)

will probably be a bit long because of pics so!

^ a few weeks after being mutated (basically still newborns, very small)

^ Around 6-7 months! Can be seen crawling around the house

^ Roughly around 8 months old (already starting to string together syllables)

^ Around 3 years old! (Yi is VERY smart for her age)

^ Around 4 years old!

^ extra silly fun fact! they started purring being only a few days old!

'unless youre begging for mercy you shouldnt be on your knees' - my physics teacher wondering why we werent sitting down during our lab

[proldiers-license]

ive seen a fair amount of jace and porter evil yaoi which is not a complaint or a diss btw we dont know what jace is getting out of all of this or why he and porter "have always been kind of a duo". what i am saying is that there needs to be an equal but opposite yuri reaction which is that i need people to start thinking about and getting on board with eugenia shadow/terpsichore skullcleaver. see my vision

Omg your instagram story is so right! I can’t believe I’ve never even noticed that, probably because in fanon keith and shiro are so close that I’d forgotten that isn’t canon :0

Deserves this awesome quote which I had to dig out of my sideblog reblogs

YEA RIDE KAMENS ART IM CRYING.. is there a rider you want to appear in the game? i'm personally praying for kiva 😭

YEAH! :D I'm having a lot of fun anticipating the reveals (and being extremely wrong about most of them) but I am also unironically extremely excited for this game! it is the kind of buckwild adaptation that we both need and deserve (and also I kind of adore all the characters already).

we're never getting a Fourze but. I desperately want a Fourze. 😭 Kiva would also be EXCELLENT, the vampire motif would work SO well with these designs! (not to mention the whole stained-glass theming in general...Kiva had some really beautiful designs going on, just LOOK at Saga --)

People love ragging on Catholics on this site (fast free and easy like river water socks) but I think it’s extra funny y’all seem to think Catholics are some sort of sex prudes. Like, if a Catholic man does not give his wife an orgasm he is failing his sworn duties as a husband. I did not endure polite insinuations that my parents fucked often and well to have as many kids as they have for you to act like any self respecting Catholic is a celibate virgin. Laypeople have sex in this denomination Kaitleign. What are we, Calvinists? Jansenism is soooo 17th century Protestant Reformation-informed heresy.

Project Hail Mary is the greatest sci-fi story I've ever read

I just really love this book, it's so beautiful oml

Rocky is my favourite alien ever (with the possible exception of Grand Admiral Thrawn), but more than that he's such a charming character who enchants you with his curiosity and delight to learn, wonderful on par with Temeraire from Naomi Novik's novels of the same name

And Ryland Grace is so fantastic as a character too, I almost forget that because of Rocky's brilliance. Grace is shown to be so kind, caring, (usually) selfless and intelligent, the perfect educator, yet at first convinced he's fundamentally the wrong man for the job. And yet as the story progresses, we see how brave and practical he is, and it's his role as an educator that makes him perfect for the job - both how he taught DuBois and Shapiro, and how he applies the attitude of teaching to learning about Rocky, the Eridians, Astrophage and Taumoeba. The fact that the book concludes with this is absolutely wonderful too.

I read it with my family, including my younger brother, and the way it applies science and physics in particular so that we could all understand it perfectly is so amazing. It's even better when you realise that it's TEACHING YOU AND I ONLY JUST REALISED THAT AVGEFVUWEFBUHSBDH

Each one of the story's wide cadre of characters is unique and everything they do tells you exactly what kind of person they are. Something about Bob Redell is so hilarious to me ('Swindler Bob' had me in stitches).

Basically, read the book. It's perfect, and I loved it.
