Hello! I'm Meegs, and though this Tumblr is pretty new by Tumblr standards, I've been around for a long-ass time, formerly as audiodrops/thetailgunner.
No TERFs, No Tankies.
As of 03/01/24 my political and I/P posts are at @inlowearthorbit. Old ones will remain for posterity.
Note: This is not a political blog, but if you follow me and I check your blog and it is full of contextless screencaps of inflammatory rhetoric and blatant misinformation, I won't hesitate to block you.
A bit more About Me under the cut
I am in my early 30s, mom to a stupidly adorable dog (see tag "sputnikposting"), and work some kind of job that I complain about from time to time. I'm currently preparing to begin working towards a master's degree, which is, you know, terrifying, but no pressure.
My primary fandom is Hetalia, which I have been in for nearly fifteen years, because something something special interest hyperfixation something something. I'm also on the very edges of TURN: Washington's Spies fandom, though I've mostly fallen out of it. I also reblog from a variety of other fandoms, but as far as fanworks and meta go, it's pretty much all Hetalia from me.
You can find me on AO3 at ~ArtificialSatellite, where I'm currently posting my multichapter USJP AmRev isekai monstrosity Rouse Your Bold Heart. I also draw fanart, which can be found under the tag "my stuff." Hetalia meta is under "hetaposting."
(I also roleplay, primarily on Discord, so if you're interested hit me up here and we'll discuss it.)
Ships include USJP, PruHun, Fryingpangle, FrUK, GerIta, and like literally any other America ship that exists, I'm probably also into, but I live by a very ship-and-let-ship philosophy so it's really all gravy.
In addition to fandom stuff, I reblog a lot of posts about Judaism (under the tag "jewish stuff") and history (under the tag "history stuff"). I am decidedly to the left on most political matters, if you were wondering, and stand in support of those continuing to fight for democracy and peace in Israel.
Over the years I have learned that curating your own online experience is critical to fandom enjoyment, and as such, I block liberally in the face of shitty behavior directed at me or anyone, and that includes supporting or positively interacting with other people's shitty behavior. If you find yourself blocked by me and would like to know why, please see the sentence preceding this one.
got a crick in my neck and a frog in my throat and a chip on my shoulder and a stick up my ass and now you're gonna stand there puttin words in my mouth? haven't I been through enough?
Actually, yes, at some point as an adult iIt is your responsibility to learn about history and politics outside of what you were taught in traditional k-12 education
You would think the "anti-war" crowd would have something to say about statements like this coming from the American president regarding the war he illegally started--you'd think that, if you believed they were sincere. But once you realize that all of their anti-war poasting throughout 2024 served the sole purpose of justifying why they would sit on their asses and refuse to support the liberal woman over the far-right fascist in the upcoming election, and that they simply cannot face the consequences of their actions, then their silence makes a lot of sense!
They really thought people wouldn't notice how they spent like a year and a half online making foreign policy their single issue and calling everyone and anyone a war criminal, but went silent as soon as a Republican got back in the White House. A year and a half of this pig's 2nd administration, and still no nickname accusing Trump of genocide (despite killing hundreds of thousands via USAID cuts thus far, but oops, they don't care about those lives, either!). Where are their hashtags about this? Where are the tiktoks and instagram "info"graphics? Where are they? These are the same people who say Kamala Harris is a war criminal for doing two (2) campaign events with Liz Cheney where their message was "we disagree on everything except Trump being a fundamental threat to the country" btw. That's still dishonestly brought up a year and a half later, but Trump openly says shit like this and they're like *seen at 8 p.m.* Or, they're desperately coping with lies that Harris would be doing the same thing right now. Phony asses.
Just saw something saying that Britain might be about to have its first Catholic PM and in verifying this stumbled into a huge internet rabbit hole about whether you (you being Boris Johnson I guess) are still Catholic if you were baptized Catholic but converted to Anglicanism but then married your third wife in a Catholic church?
And this feels like a very English problem
