So sometimes the best way to find new (to you) interesting posts for fandoms that aren’t currently at peak popularity is to make a post for that fandom, and then wait for people who extensively tag every post to reblog it so you can then go into their blog’s tag and mine for things.
I will admit to sometimes making extremely half-baked fandom posts in order to trigger this phenomenon. Thank you to everybody who falls into my trap.
Put in the tags the completely finished (whether cancelled or wrapped up on its own terms) TV series that has YOUR perfect ending, however you define that
Please don’t include huge spoilers for the specifics of the endings, and it would also make me happy if people don’t use this to talk about the shows whose endings they hated
How to explain to tumblr users that “aromantisism means you should have sex with your friends” is neither accurate nor appropriate as a response to someone’s personal post about being asexual and disliking being pressured into articulating identity via the split attraction model. That is, in fact, offensive as hell to not only me and people who share my experience but also to everyone who has politely added to the post articulating their opposite experience.
i call this the headcanon chart. see my vision
elaboration
if I may:
in 2026 i am wishing for all of us the energy of bilbo baggins, who was headhunted for an extremely well paid role he had no qualifications or experience for, blagged the interview, and within his first week found a magic ring that does the job for him
If I made an embroidered patch something like this for my Etsy, how many of y’all would want one. Be honest
im obsessed
oh, of course. because he died for our sins.
If you're writing anything involving cons, scams, heists, or morally questionable characters who are very good at lying, here are some free resources I've been using for research. Saving you the "why is this in my search history" anxiety.
1. The FBI's Famous Cases & Criminals archive (fbi.gov/history/famous-cases) has detailed breakdowns of real fraud cases, Ponzi schemes, and confidence operations. The language they use is clinical and precise, which is perfect for getting the procedural details right.
2. The FTC Consumer Sentinel Network publishes annual reports on the most common fraud tactics in the US. Great for understanding how modern scams actually work and what makes people fall for them.
3. The Smithsonian's American Art Museum has a free digital collection of forgery case studies. If your character forges documents or art, this is gold.
4. Court Listener (courtlistener.com) is a free legal database where you can read actual court transcripts from fraud trials. Want to know how a real con artist talks under oath? This is where you find out.
5. The Internet Archive's collection of old newspaper crime sections. Search for "confidence man" or "swindle" in papers from the 1920s through 1960s and you'll find incredible real stories that would feel too dramatic for fiction.
Bonus: The Psychology of Fraud section on the Association for Psychological Science website has accessible articles about why people trust, how deception works cognitively, and what makes someone a convincing liar. Essential reading if you want your con artist characters to feel psychologically real.
Reblog to save for later. Your WIP will thank you.
truly breathtaking just how many series would be massively improved if the author gave a shit about women
i know the list for such things can be very very long for SGA, but i wish we learned more little things about Ronon and Teyla, both related to their culture and just some of their little quirks. for example, for John it was his love for Johnny Cash or how he always liked to name new things, for Rodney it was his love for animals/pets (not-a-whale Sam, his cat on Earth, even Carson's lab mice), and both of them loved movies and comics and stuff. i mean we know so little about Ronon beyond all things related to his runner years, which, yeah, have been a huge part of his life but that can't be all who he is right? with Teyla we have just a little bit more, some things about Athosian culture and traditions/rituals, and i loved that little moment when we learned that she's not really that great of a cook. but that's not much. so yeah, it would've been so great to discover these things about them
best thing about uncle iroh is that if you pay attention he is actually just as much of an idiot as zuko but has just mastered the art of coming across as a wise old man. the even better thing is that zuko is the only one on the planet who somewhat realizes this and no one would ever believe him because he's zuko
like uncle iroh 100% does dumb shit on purpose sometimes to get people to underestimate him and keep zuko from capturing the avatar, but other times he just, and i cannot emphasize this enough, does impulsive dumb shit for no reason other than the fact that terminal stupid presumably runs in the royal family's blood
uncle: "you never think things through, prince zuko!"
also uncle:
once got captured by the earth kingdom army buck ass naked bc he really wanted to go to a hot spring in enemy territory
betrayed zhao at the Northern Water Tribe with no escape plan and then spent 3 weeks starving on a boat
immediately went to a spa resort upon publicly committing treason
ate a poisonous plant and, in the spirit of Two Fish Hook Sokka, was going to solve the problem by eating another potentially poisonous plant
decided the safest place in the world they could go was the city he once FAMOUSLY laid siege to for 600 days
instead of lying low or giving a modicum of a shit about people recognizing him, overachieved himself into becoming one of the most well-known restaurant owners in said city
in fact overachieved so hard that he got an invite to meet the earth king (whose city he, again, once FAMOUSLY LAID SIEGE TO) which he fucking? accepted????
#no wonder zuko was constantly frothing at the mouth! he's the only one who knows the truth!#god just imagine the number of times people have seen zuko yelling at iroh#and assumed zuko was just being mean#when zuko was actually yelling at his uncle for wasting all their money bartering with pirates AGAIN#everyone assumes iroh is babysitting zuko but really they're pingponging responsibility back and forth#and zuko at least has the excuse of being 16#anyway I love Uncle Hypocrite so much; funniest motherfucker on the planet (via OP)
anyway sound off. at what stage do ppl think Han figured out the Force was real. the boring answer is after seeing Obi-wan vanish but i think he could rationalise that away as his eyes playing tricks on him. what do we think.
Let me demonstrate my answer for you:
That's it. That's my answer. Endor.
Please just take a look at Han's face right after witnessing 3po float. The man just had his entire worldview blown to smithereens.
that's so funny. that means he accepted Vader deflecting a blaster bolt with his hand as just something freaky government cyborgs can do, and stuck by Luke for multiple years as he tried to figure this Force stuff out, and just treated it like your friend getting really really into neopaganism to cope with a loss.
like yeah kid good job with the witching. i'm certain it will be more useful against your enemies than your sharpshooting. no i do not think your witchcraft is supplementing your aim but i'm not gonna argue about it.
yeah Luke was like 'I heard Ben Kenobi's voice in my head telling me how to blow up the Death Star :)' and Han was like 'kind of an unusual coping mechanism but I'm not gonna argue with him'
thanks to carbonite han not only misses learning about luke's training montage on dagobah, he's also half-blind during their whole escape on tatooine. luke's out there force-kicking henchmen with his gucci boots and doing flips and shit and han can't see a goddamn thing. now on endor luke's yeeting threepio with the power of his mind and han's just like 'the last time we hung out i had to stuff him in a tauntaun sleeping bag'.
@softness-and-shattering I hate you I hate you I hate you
tumblr is like an abandoned space station & you all are the thing in the vents
not me though. im girl with tanktop
Hate when I'm trying to find my luggage at the baggage claim but they all look the same. Many such cases.
The older I get the more frustrated I become by password portals that don't have an option to let me see what I typed. There can be Dozens of reasons I make a typo: I'm unfamiliar with the keyboard, I can't recall if I correctly hit caps, I'm phone typing and my fingers are big, autocorrect tried to "help". I know it can only be harder for people with mobility or vision impairments which make typing/reading harder. I know it's a security concern but I at least try to do sensitive things in private where passerbys can't see.
This goes triple for any accounts that'll lock you out after 3-5 failed attempts BTW.
If you’re ever having a shit day, remember that William Laurence once made a failed marriage proposal, got sued for £10,000 and committed an unrelated capital crime all within 24 hours
#in retrospect getting bopped on the head falling off a boat losing his memories and offending the entire nation of Japan #pales in comparison (via americachavez)
Laurence has a lot of bad days okay
