never let kids get into stories about shapeshifting first theyre pretending to be wolves on the playground then theyre getting radicalized by animorphs then theyre realizing the human body is an impermanent and malleable thing then theyre discovering you can take a potion to change your gender in real life

Favorite bit after cut

does tumblr know about tim misny??? like has the level of tim misny awareness that exists in northeast ohio broken containment and become known online yet???

[rydenxo]

ok so tim misny is a personal injury lawyer here in ohio.

that’s him. you do not have to remember his face from this image because you’re gonna see it a lot in this post. so mainly i think we all kinda honed in on tim misny because of his slogan

he’s gonna make them pay. he’s gonna get you that money but also it’s a little threatening like he’s gonna fully fuck his legal opponent’s shit up. this sprung tons of local memes. then there were the billboards which were normal at first.

but here’s the thing; we already know what misny does. he makes them pay. so it turns into just saying “you know what i do” which is funny enough if you don’t at all have the context.

but this is not where the absurdity caps out, my friends. no. this is what it has evolved to and they. are. everywhere.

that’s right. no text. just the judging eyes of tim misny, glaring through our skin and into our souls. there is no god. there is no devil. there is just tim misny and he’s gonna make them pay.

thrilled to present this context-free snippet from a forthcoming piece of short fiction featuring our best pal and also the gal we're all frightened of and/or pathetically smitten with

"2-410-7-2, 3-72-1-39(no$), 3-405-2-18 2-150-5-46 1-167-1-3(no$) 2-153-3-88 1-243-3-14."

finished this piece (Dracula’s Confession) by Lindy Stitches- i did the leaves first, and after a long time noticed i was five stitches off somewhere.

y’all, i stitched the middle of the leaves twice when going between pages. i made mutant leaves. i was not gonna rip it all out.

As a lesbian, it’s happened twice already that one “guy” stands out to me and I think “huh maybe they’re kinda cute and interesting, I wanna get to know them” and then I get to know them better and it’s a closeted trans girl who I somehow sniffed with my little nonbinary lesbian nose

Okay so Victorian erotica is literally the most heinous, morally bankrupt, horrific shit I've ever read - but I've read a fair bit, partly from historical interest but also because a while back I helped a friend with a university project she was doing about censorship and pornography in 19th century England.

Anyway I need to share with you all the most hilarious line that has ever been written, circa 1887:

[prokopetz]

I feel like this excerpt is significantly enhanced by knowing that the novel in question is a first-person narrative written from the perspective of an inexplicably sapient flea who lives on Bella's body, and that's why the third priest's penis is described in this way: from the narrator's perspective it literally blots out the sky.

RPG where the shopkeeper doesn't give a shit if you pick something up off the shelves and walk out the door because they don't get paid enough to stick their neck out, but aggros immediately if you pick an item up and then put it back down on the wrong shelf.

“Excuse me, the dagger section is over there.” “Pardon?” “You put a dagger in the gauntlet section. Please put it back. Where it belongs.” “It’s just a dagger....” *Sound of War Axe being drawn* “WHERE. IT. BELONGS!”

tlt is the most lesbian series i’ve ever read mainly because of the extremely obvious disgust harrow and gideon exhibit towards men in their narration compared to how they describe women. like that is so real!! that is what it’s like to see everyone swooning over a man and you look at him and he’s just kind of ick. palamedes, naberius, augustine etc are probably very conventionally attractive but because our narrators are lesbians you get the idea that all the men in the series are kind of weird looking. buff men are grotesque but buff women are sexy as hell! harrow literally describes mercy as looking like a painting!! it doesn’t just feel like ur reading about a lesbian character it feels like you are in the head of a lesbian character and idk if i’ve encountered that before but i love it

[miraonpluto]

i have a lot of admiration for immediately-post-resurrection-john because he was given the chance to rework his entire society and was like: swords. they HAVE to use swords. also cool capes and cloaks

Just finished Network Effect and it’s such a mood. I read it digitally and it’s really funny seeing the bits that are popular enough for people to go, ‘Yes, this,’ and bookmark.

Two of my personal faves:

Overse added, “Just remember you’re not alone here.” I never know what to say to that. I am actually alone in my head, and that’s where 90 plus percent of my problems are.

There is a lot about what is going on here that I don’t understand. But I am participating anyway.

finding out your friend has a new name/gender is so hype. Like yess give us the patch notes

I’m lucky to have friends like this. Also I have curated the group so maybe it’s not entirely luck

obligatory welcome guide for redditors

A lot of the guides I've seen don't actually seem to understand how reddit works in comparison to tumblr so

your blog is basically your own small subreddit. some people curate this heavily to fit a theme, like a sub, most people don't

reblogs are culturally equivilant to upvotes but functionally equvilant to crossposting

there is an algorithm. it sucks and nobody uses it. turn it off in settings. everything is generally chronological

likes are functionally equivilant to saving a post

you've probably already seen this but change your icon and put something in your bio or people WILL assume you're a bot. personal info not required

generally, anything you would put as a comment on a thread should go in the tags or the replies of a post. only add comments in reblogs if you want it to become part of the base post

tags are mostly equivilant to flairs, used for organization and commentary

your dashboard is an aggregation of everyone you follow

there is an r/all equivilant(trending page) but it sucks and nobody uses it

our search also sucks. your best bet is using tumblr.com/tagged/[TAG] and not /search

there are no mods

by extension, reporting something doesn't put it in front of the mods, it sends it to staff, who may or may not do anything(usually they don't)

there is no karma, there are no karma limits. anyone can reblog anything, comment/reply to anything, or post in any tag

"reposting"(reblogging) old content doesn't matter. people can and will reblog the same post multiple times, including in a row

CAVEAT. reposting someones art(NOT reblogging, making a new post) is a dick move. i know this is commonplace on fandom subs but its not necessary here. everything you post should be [OC] unless you are reblogging. or posting shitty memes

we have our own sitelore, you'll pick it up

(though im not opposed to bringing some over from reddit)

our app also sucks. we do not have third party apps and any that claim to be are scams. sorry

for desktop, most people use the XKit Rewritten extension for QoL improvements and to revert shitty aesthetic updates, much like old.reddit

we have no idea where the porn rules are at either. add a mature content flag to anything you'd get fired for looking at at work, that's about it

finally, from the bottom of my heart, fuck u/spez
