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.
"these deadly heatwaves aren't getting ANY media attention!!"
Babe it's been front page news all week. France, India, all of them. Please read the news somewhere other than Tumblr
For fucks sake we have an aging userbase there's no excuse for not reading the news on actual news websites anymore. NPR, PBS, AP, even CNN for godssakes I'm so fucking sick of "NOBODY is talking about this!!" you are all children
This has been Major Edmund Hewlett's house for nearly two hundred and fifty years, even if the living occupants of the house don't know it. When the newest set of occupants move in, he is unexpectedly confronted with the past he has never been able to let go of, and a face he has never been able to forget.
pre-shabbos missive I just remembered: last night I dreamt I was at a drive-in watching the supposed objectively, universally funniest episode of seinfeld, so funny they had special events like this to watch it like rocky horror style, which featured elaine responding to a relatively normal problem by forcing a man to kill another man by point blank shooting him in the head in the street
@agaricandmoss has informed me that it's "Make A Terrible Comic" Day, so here's one about me and my coworker Laney and a conversation we regularly have.
No I think it's really great when a friend group of approximately twenty seven individuals spread out in the sidewalk as they walk so nobody has to walk behind the group. There's nothing better than when I'm trying to get home and I see the tableau of Jesus at the Last Supper gliding towards me like Jamiroquai in the Virtual Insanity music video and I have to decide who has the narrowest frame that I can shoulder-check my way past
