The Dreamer

[blessedarethebinarybreakers]

ID: digital art of Joseph of Genesis sitting on a rock in a desert; there are shrubs and the sky is ablaze with sunset. Joseph wears a flowing red, blue, and gold cape strewn with stars, the sun, and the moon, and, chin propped up on hand, looks dreamily towards the distance.

i am soft , gentle.

i have felt the sharp pierce of arrows , i have been caressed by the bullets of hunters. it was expected. it was what i deserved.

to them , i was not the serene creature you say i am. to them , i am a trophy. they will have me gutted and stuffed before the morning comes.

you claimed to be different.

your distaste for what i am was not their steel , cold end. it was not planned with gun sights or targets in my shape.

you were the swift end of a car coming too fast , too hard. something burning too bright , barreling to fast to think about any fragile thing in your way.

it was real. it was unexpected. and even though i knew the crash was to come , my moment you gave me in the air was the freest i’ve ever felt.

random thought but i need an adaptation of Paradise Lost in the vein of the Sandman (fuck Neil Gaiman) with Tom Sturridge as Satan/Lucifer because omg that would be so perfect i think!! Tom looked so Luciferian as Morpheus esp when he was imprisoned in Episode 1. And his voice most of all would fit so well for the Great Deceiver (i would let him deceive me.)

Princess Alcyone Zophos Windrunner

// she's an autumn eladrin, and a major npc from my dnd campaign, doomed by the narrative to haunt the narrative :3

// she likes cats and black magic and high divination and pumpkin spice latté and also committing treason :D

// She's currently down in the Underworld because she had to acquire an extremely rare material from there that's needed to sever the soul of the God-Emperor (who is like, a lich, but forty times worse) from the Four Winds and all the other elements of the world (he somehow made them his phylactery, like wtf), the material being a feather from the wing of an angel of the Demiurge (in this case, she thought the easiest way to do that was to literally go down to where Lucifer is being kept).

// she is also basically an Olympic-level track and field athlete who has won gold o n e time! so she runs. a lot.

Try it...

An Egyptian programmer created a page dedicated to every Palestinian soul killed by the occupation during the war of extermination in #Gaza.. So far, he has registered 72,000 names.

Each point of light on the screen represents the name of a martyr, and when it is clicked, the name of the person it belongs to appears.

The link is in the first reblog :

I Am Not a Number

A memorial for the 60,199 Palestinian victims of the Israeli genocide in Gaza. Each dot is a name. Each name was a life.

Madeleine in the Pray live sesh <3

[mydarlingdearestdead]

I pray to Saint Christopher during storms.

This, I am not proud of, as I have not been a practicing Catholic since I was nine years old. Even then, my prayers more often revolved around a desire for a true religious revelation. A prayer to believe in prayer. Retrospectively, I do admit it was rather contradictory.

I struggle still as, ultimately, my belief is that faith is a choice and, at that, a choice I would like nothing more than to make. Yet, my mind allows me nothing so kind. Confirmed in the church as I am, I refuse to take communion. I confess my sins to a reporter's pad rather than a paperback. As the memory of The Hail Mary gathers dust in the back of my mind, as does the leatherbound New Testament under my bed.

To avoid claims of perjury, I would admit that I dream often of Mary Magdalene. If you are not aware of her depiction by the Venetian artist Domenico Tintoretto, I implore you to seek it. I have been drawn unmistakably to her since my teenage years in a manner entirely inappropriate. In my heart and my mind, I know her to be fictional. I understand that her fictionality, should it be disproved, could prove a rather despicable linchpin for the ultimate collapse of my mind. Yet The Madeleine beckons me.

I find, some days, that my school girl fascination has evolved into pure adoration. Into love. The idea saturates my very soul in terror.

Yet, despite all these sins of mine, I pray to Saint Christopher during storms... And I ask Mary Magdalene for her protection against what lurks beneath the disguise of thunder.

Reblogs in a chain now get their own notes

The reblog chain is one of the things that makes Tumblr unlike anywhere else. All the notes on reblogs are attributed to the original post, no matter which branch people actually liked or reblogged. We want to keep encouraging conversations, and give contributors the recognition they deserve. 

Soon, you'll be able to like, reblog, or reply to any part of a reblog chain, and that note will go to that reblog's author. Each reblog will have its own counts, instead of one aggregated number from every version of the post. And yes, you’ll be able to like multiple posts in one chain.

If a reblog doesn't add anything, the love flows up to the last person in the chain who did. Your post doesn't lose notes just because people spread it quietly.

Past notes will stay on the original post — we're only changing what happens from here on out. Retroactively re-attributing all of them would be... a lot.

This is just the beginning. More changes are coming as we keep building this out – stay tuned!

[changes]

It’s very clear that you all have strong feelings about Tumblr and about this change. We hear you. The passion people have for how Tumblr works is one of the things that makes this place special.

As this rolls out over the next few days and you explore it, we’ll keep reading your replies and reblogs, so please keep sharing your questions, concerns, and ideas.

Your creativity has always been the heart of Tumblr, whether you’re the original poster or adding something brilliant in the reblogs, and nothing about this change is meant to limit that.

If you’d like to talk directly beyond the comments, leave a reply and we’ll follow up with as many of you as we can. We want to work with you to make Tumblr better.
