These are a few of my favourite things...

She/They. Adult. Very multi-fandom. Sometimes NSFW. Hockey @tealxfate Whump @givemewhumperflies

not now kitten, mommy needs to get up off her ass and overcome her fear of writing poorly because it's better than not writing at all.

Good Omens’ Final Love Letter to Fanfiction

The author is dead. Long live the authors.

With canon now a sprawling fanfic multiverse, there’s plenty to choose from. I hope that fandom, asking with Aziraphale, “Why give us Crowley only to take him away?” will make use of the many pens and blank books the series holds out and keep writing. Maybe the dropped threads of Good Omens’ hastily downsized third season will serve their fanfic purpose and inspire some new stories—in whatever universe the authors most like.

In our latest, @annejamison writes about the Good Omens series finale, and how the show's metatextual conclusion comments on transformative fandom—and gives these characters back to the fans.

If anyone would like to read a thorough take down of Sparta as a state not worth emulating, then ive got just the series of articles for you!

[heroineimages]

Reblogging because pissing on Sparta is one of my hobbies. And yes, totally check out the link above. Brett has a lot of great discussion and scholarship on why Sparta was proto-fascist garbage, and he presents it with both snark and accessibility.

[fierceawakening]

Holy shit. That’s… that’s worse than I thought it would be. Yikes.

[doctorjanedee]

Reblogging because more people should read the ACOUP Sparta takedown and fewer people should get their concept of history from fucking 300.

[fierceawakening]

No one should get their concept of history from 300, and I say that as someone who enjoyed 300. 300 is a comicbookification of a legend, and legends are already exaggerations.

[disorganisedautodidact]

A Great Divorce has also done an audio version of the ACOUP Spart takedown if audio is easier for you!

Fanfic is a great way to practice self-indulgence while writing. It doesn’t even have to be good, it just exists purely for your pleasure, be a little freak about it. Worry about quality and what other people think when it comes to works you intend to publish in a formal setting

Everyone on the team talking to Marleau after Ilya's announcement about leaving Boston and they're like Cliff bro the fucks going on what's wrong why would Roz leave us for Ottawa you're his best bro guy friend man buddy bro you obviously know. And he's like yeah so Roz has been seeing this chick from Montreal for years they've been fucking since before we even won the Cup he's moving to Canada to lock it down. And they're like damn pussy so good got him blushing giggling and moving to another country. Too bad Hollander lives and plays for Montreal now Roz can't move there to be with his girl and gotta settle for loser ass fucking Ottawa two hours away from his Montreal Jane. Fucking Hollander standing in the way of true love.

At last, a pill that can prevent COVID after exposure to infected people

Drug arrives years after pandemic’s peak, but could still offer protection to vulnerable populations.

An antiviral pill has, for the first time, been shown to prevent COVID-19 in people exposed to the SARS-CoV-2 virus at home, according to trial results published today in the New England Journal of Medicine1. The drug could be a lifeline for those who still face real danger from the virus, such as care-home residents or transplant recipients on immune-suppressing medication.

There are good things happening in the world.

I can't believe we live in a world where there's an AI company unironically called "Palantir," and it isn't a parody. It's a real thing. I remember seeing a picture of an advertisement on here and thinking, "This HAS to be a joke. This is too on-the-nose to be real. They wouldn't honestly name an AI company Palantir, after the Seeing Stones from Lord of the Rings that are supposed to offer knowledge, but famously also might be feeding you misinformation from evil sources because 'we do not know who else may be watching.'" But then here I am listening to the BBC News discussing why the CEO of Palantir just published a Manifesto that sounds like it was written by a supervillain.
