Oh hi SPG fandom

I’ll be in Canada for the show in a couple weeks!

If anyone wants to say hi, feel free to!

I haven’t been to a show of theirs since 2018 and haven’t been involved in the fan space. But since it seems I’m a known old fan from the 2010’s it feels appropriate to poke my head out here and meet any new friends.

I’ll be with my pal I met (10 years ago) at the GCSE in line that I bonded with instantly and found a small group of misfits to hang with at the show.

I just look a tad different now since then lol;

"ooh shoebills are so scary looking" yeah that's because you're getting the scary angle on purpose. apologize to him right now

My favorite thing

Is coming back and seeing people react to my posts from 2012, when I was 17, questioning the steam powered giraffe fandom and band from my posts.

The child on the right (wearing their SPG shirt, you can’t tell) is the one writing those posts.

The adult on the left is who’s typing this now, just turned 31 and a year on T and wearing a Laura Jane Grace shirt. So I’m still a fan of trans musicians it seems, I wonder why 😛

Anyway, it’s best to not question the 2010’s fandom. Parasocial wasn’t even a word that was in our vocabulary and it was messy and the Wild West. Trust me; as a person who was groomed by a certain backing musician they had, from age 17-25. I’m so happy you newer fans have two members that aren’t creeps interacting with you.

I still love SPG and plan to see them in Canada, all these years later since the last time I did in 2018. I just have to skip over some songs because of the prior mentioned band member. And luckily, I will never have to see that guy at a show again.

Keep making fan art and cute stuff, this band has…a way into your heart ;)

Just some adventure time fan art, for no reason at all.

Hey tumblr,

Thanks for always being the OG with the best following and people I still think about after 10+ years.

I appreciate you

Oh my gosh. I just found this website that walks you though creating a believable society. It breaks each facet down into individual questions and makes it so simple! It seems really helpful for worldbuilding!

[theredscreech]

Heads up that this is a very extensive questionnaire and might be daunting to a lot of writers (myself included). That being said, it is also an amazing questionnaire and I will definitely be using it (or at the very least, some of it).

I applaud the effort that went into this seconds-long bit.

For anyone who wants a side-by-side comparison to appreciate everything that moved, here you go:

“i liked it before it was cool” well i liked it AFTER it was cool when everyone abandoned it

[gayvampyr]

i get really into shows that aired like 5+ years ago like “have y’all heard of this”

[amvs]

genuinely they have probably saved people.

[amvs]

they HAVE saved people actually i’m 100% sure of that. i’ve learned about so many recalls i would’ve had no idea about otherwise !!!! from the bottom of all of our hearts thank you mamoru

[mamoru]

aw shucks, thank YOU! what a pick me up!

when I was younger, I got food poisoning. I was supposed to recover from it, but I wound up with a bunch of nasty medical conditions instead. I never imagined I would become disabled from food.

so I am really glad I have been able to help spread the word every now and then about food safety and recalls, since it hopefully means a few less people going through what I have.

while I have your attention, I do not post every recall, even just for the US, so here are a few of the links I use!

recalls.gov/recent.html <- aggregate of official government recall links for the US! food, drugs, products, child safety seats, motor vehicles, and tires! (half the feeds are broken half the time, but hey, it works™! check the FDA enforcement reports for a more complete list of recalls, especially drug recalls!)

recalls for canada <- recalls for canada!

RASFF <- food recalls and safety alerts for the EU!

food safety news <- news about food safety in the US, canada, and around the world!

I was poisoned <- see where people have gotten food poisoning near you, and report your own! (worldwide!)

thanks for reading, stay safe and take care!

[chongoblog]

The Steven Universe fandom might be “cringe” and “bad” but imagine a fandom so bad that a bunch of fandom members had ran a scheme to say “if you pay us money, your blorbo will know you’re valid” and the fandom permanently split over a 95 paragraph callout post of these people.

[chongoblog]

I cant do the story justice myself. Google “The Protestant Reformation” for more details, I hear a few people have done deep dives

Kestrel-dad not sure how to dad but he’s trying his best.

[astarlingdiscovery]

[punished-ned]

Dad loves you and feeds you. But he is also dumb and feeds you a wonderfully done wagyu steak. You are 3 days old.

[swan2swan]

Okay, but check out this video from mid-May 2022 of a Kestrel Dad who just kept piling up voles and mice beside his babies when the mom was injured/killed/mia’d by owls…but then watched one of his babies just swallow a lizard and went “OH. I can feed them small food!” and learned to tear it apart!

EDIT: There’s a not-zero percent chance that this could be the same dad???????? The source is the same–Robert E Fuller–but they could be different birds. 

[swan2swan]

UPDATE: Not only has Mister Kes learned to feed his chicks all on his own…

….the three chicks who were taken out of the nest for intensive care after the mom disappeared were put back in, and he just started feeding them, too.

He’s a single father of six who does not possess the instincts to feed even one of his offspring, but he learned and adopted that behavior without difficulty and is now hunting and providing for six kids all on his own.

Happy father’s day to the Krestel single dad of 6 Who is doing a wonderful job

[adreamngofdragons]

Shout out to these chicks who have never seen a hand before.
