Apparently no life outside of internet...

I joined tumblr because I noticed I spend too much time here already. By joining I have effectively limited my already quite limited sociality outside of internet. I probably won't create stuff, but gonna reblog things just because I can. I am a fan of great many things, including but not limited to pretty women and femslash things.

does anyone know what happened to Ralsts Passion and perfection site? I can’t seem to find it anywhere

Thank you for the ask.

I don't know. But it sure looks like http://ralst.com is dead.

The Wayback Machine's last capture of the landing page is from May 2026.

The last update was apparently in April 2023, announcing that that "Passion and Perfection is now closed to new submissions."

The last two reblogs on @ralst's tumblr were from December 2023 and December 2022.

The is a fanlore page, but it is relatively short.

I an sad that this site is gone. I have a lot of fond memories and am very grateful that ralst maintained the site for so long. It was one of my main fic sources before AO3.

I hope ralst is OK.

If anyone has any information, please feel free to share in the comments, ask, etc.

Oh this is sad. Passion and Perfection and the Pink Rabbit consortium at altfic.com were my two favourite multifandom femslash sites, and looking at the latter that is also now gone, last snapshot in January, though I know I last visited it more recently than that.

These were what we had before AO3, and I'll be forever grateful for all the time and work put into creating and maintaining them.

Download the fic you love, folks, because even the Internet Archive may not be forever

[femslashhistorian]

Oh my. Sad indeed that that The Pink Rabbit Consortium (altfic.com) is also gone. The art and design was really amazing.

@pinkrabbitpro's tumblr was last active in January 2020. The is also a fanlore page.

That means that of the three multi fandom femslash sites that I used to use a lot before ff.net and AO3 only one remains active alive mid 2026:

https://realmoftheshadow.com/ (and: fanlore page)

As there is no year listed in the "new stories" page, I am not sure when this site was last updated, but I think it has been a while.

And sadly also a lot of the sites I mentioned in my Xena and Buffy femslash fic guides seem to be gone now. (I'll need to do some digging next week).

A big thank you to everyone who maintained these amazing websites that brought me so much joy!!!

And indeed, remember to download your favorite fics, because nothing lasts forever

I asked Ralst, (Since I found the contact email through wayback machine) and she is in talks to get the sites stories transferred to AO3!

WTF are those obelisks on the right?…

“It’s digestible” has got to be the laziest goal I’ve ever seen achieved by a food product.

[gingerhaze]

“It’s digestible”

[rhea314]

“It’s digestible” is pertinent!! Okay, for those of you who haven’t researched Crisco for writing fic about gay sex in the mid-late 60s:

The first-edition of The Joy of Gay Sex, published in 1977, declared, “Vegetable shortening may be the best lubricant, since it is not only greasy but also digestible”[4] Such a statement perhaps gives new meaning to the companies boastful declarations that “Its digestible” and “Crisco has been making life in the kitchen more delicious for years.”  Similarly, in the 1978 sex manual The Advocate Guide to Gay Health, Crisco even earned an entry in the book’s index.  Discussions of the shortening’s use as an anal lubricant indicate its popularity, with statements such as: “The lubricant, typically the cultic Crisco, must be copious.”[5]  In fact, Crisco was so synonomus with gay sex that discos and bars around the world took on the name, such as Crisco Disco in New York City, which was one of the premiere clubs during the 1970s and early 1980s.  Other clubs or bathhouses, such as Club Z in Seattle, even featured murals with Crisco.  Thus, Crisco was conversely also one of many things that led to the formation of gay identities during the 20th century.

[nianeyna]

I have learned a new thing today.

[soupwife]

Love this post for so many reasons but most especially because this is from all the way back in 2012 and and yet not a single blog in this thread is deactivated

[nianeyna]

I enjoy that not only does this have a link to an actual source, but the link still fucking works.

[dancinbutterfly]

but @rhea314 you didnt include a picture of the crisco disco! AND MY GOD THE DJ BOOTH WAS A GIANT CRISCO CAN!

Go dance and get fisted. Fucking iconic.

[mr-elementle]

Love the gay history, but i just wanna correct that the “it’s digestible” in the gay stuff was a reference to crisco’s tagline it had been using since 1911, the actual meaning of its digestible is because it’s main competition came from “enhanced” lards which were rendered pig fat mixed with non food thickeners that literally did not digest and caused people to basically just shit out pig cream, since crisco was veggie based the body digested it along with the food

[papapastoral]

And in case you were still wondering, @mudwerks.. Tuna Croquettes

[elf7knight]

This post is the opposite of net zero information. Not only did I learn several new facts about gay history but also we rounded our way back to the original question of the tag line and the mini obelisks.

It’s a net profit of information. 12/10 post

Save Lavender Menace Queer Books Archive

Lavender Menace, the only queer books archive in Scotland, needs your support to continue protecting queer history - and to create more!

Scotland's first and only queer book archive is about to lose their funding - if you have a little to spare, please consider sending a couple quid their way. They have some cool crowdfunder rewards if that sweetens the deal for you. They're a really amazing team, and the decades of queer history - not to mention unknowable amounts of queer lives they've touched - deserve to be continually celebrated.
