[danaburrsir]

So like a lot of hazbin blogs have been following me lately. I’m not mad or anything just really confused bc I mostly just like hazbin stuff rather than post anything. Like how are y’all finding me I’m so confused?? Like I haven’t reblogged anything hazbin in months??

Welcome I guess but also ????

[danaburrsir]

At least I’m being followed by actual people now. I appreciate that at least

[danaburrsir]

Update: turns out their bots trying to commission scam me. And I stupidly fell for one T-T

[danaburrsir]

Hey idk if any y’all are interested but I have been writing a RadioApple fic recently so if any of y’all want to read it it’s here:

Also shoutout to my friend @whatthefuckisasweep for helping me edit this one!

[possumtion]

Someone’s probably done this before, but First Contact! AU where Jim is an astronaut who got stranded and Spock is the vulcan scientist who saved him.

Sketches and rambles under cut:

I was thinking something like The Martian where he got stranded on a planet during a mission, lost contact with the rest of his team and presumed dead, Spock is a vulcan scientist who was there on a research trip when he found jim's injured body and brought jim back to his ship despite vulcan's strict non-interference policy. Can be Mcspirk too with bones being jim's friend and a NASA scientist who refuses to believe jim is dead and tries to get a rescue mission to search for Jim despite everyone else thinking he's just griefing/in denial.

I've been turning this thing in my head for a few weeks like a microwave, but i'm not a good writer lol, so if anyone wants to make something of it feel free, please tag me so i can see it!!

look maybe it's the hyperfixation talking here but to the men who think it's anyone else's fault but theirs that they aren't getting baddies just need to look at Herbert West and rexamine themselves.

like homeboy was murdering people and robbing mourges and graveyards left and right and still pulled a baddie like Dan.

Like buddy, if HE can pull a baddie and not you I don't think it's on women at that point, I think you've just got no rizz

[gravesidepickup]

okay, ignore that I've been dead as hell. new poolverine au idea just dropped.

Logan gets invited to Jean and Scott's wedding and he's trying to prove that he's NOT being sad bitch hours over it and hes definitely in such a good and happy and healthy and perfect relationship. so he has to bring his totally real and legit girlfriend to the wedding as his plus one right?

Except he doesn't HAVE a totally real and legit girlfriend. So he has to take to the internet. That he's not... The best at using but Desperate times call for Desperate measures, right?? Right.

Logan is hiring someone to play his girlfriend for the wedding.

"But this is supposed to be poolverine!" You yell

And you're RIGHT. IT IS!!

So, who else does he ACCIDENTALLY hire other than THE Wade fucking Wilson himself.

"Wolverine wouldn't do this :/" You say. too bad I don't care it's an au. plus, fuck you. I respond.

Logan is spending weeks sharing just enough information to make it passable before properly meeting face to face, a bad choice, but we did establish he's really not great with the internet. They're chatting it up, daily. Building a connection in their own way. He's desperate. Wade is kicking his feet and giggling over this.

Wade just thought it'd be funny to post on Craigslist, a dying website, just because he was bored on a Thursday night. He didn't expect any real inquiries, just bored Desperate men.

Surprise!

Someone is desperate, but it's a different kind of desperate.

Finally. An un determined amount of time before the wedding but just enough that it's too late to hire someone else– it happens. The first in person meeting. The moment Logan realizes he's a fucking idiot and he's stuck with an even bigger idiot.

It's too late. He doesn't have time to find anyone else. He has to COMMIT. This is his only choice. They're going to spend the entire undetermined amount of time together and get closer.

They have their bickering and fights, but they pull up to that wedding and put on the best god damn show this town has ever seen. By GOD do they fucking commit. It's beautiful. Cinematic masterpiece. Everyone is convinced, and everyone is happy for Logan. It's a fucking dream how well he pulls this off.

Alternatively, they're a fucking mess. They're a nightmare. it's like a trainwreck, you just can't look away. But maybe this is more convincing for them. Let's be honest. Their love language is stabbing and violence.

True Romcom style. They're in love fr now.

[danaburrsir]

Reblogging this bc while I can’t donate myself I’ll at the very least platform for folks who can

[danaburrsir]

Tumblr, I’m asking ya’ll this question bc ya’ll are my target audience.

What would you want to see in a rom-com about rivals to lovers investment bankers?

[jewishdragon]

On the discussion of book accurate depictions of Sherlock Holmes, one thing I really want is accurate Mycroft. In the books Sherlock is very… autistically coded. At least to me, an autistic person. And Sherlock basically states that Mycroft has more “severe” autism. Sherlock says his brother is more brilliant than he is but absolutely cannot function in society and hates social interaction so much he founded a society for the purpose of minimizing it as much as possible. In addition it’s implied he becomes overstimulated so easily he has to curate his environment to be devoid of disturbance and noise.

Give me the autistic brothers but one has it much much worse

Enough of this Mycroft as the more sociable of the two who is a powerful politician. This man would have a meltdown if he had to be that social!!!

[geeoharee]

Mycroft goes one (1) place and then goes home, at the same time every day, and does not talk to anyone if he can avoid it, and is really good with facts and figures. Given the state of mental health research in the late 1800s, Mycroft is possibly the most autistic a character could be. And he's HAPPY - do you know how rare that is in fiction about autistic people? Sherlock is super clear about this: Mycroft does his Mycroft things, and has no desire to do any other things, and everyone is super grateful for him being himself and sorting out all their facts for them.

Obviously we only meet him in the stories when he's been forced to Get Up And Go Do Something because of circumstances (that's how adventure stories work, after all) but the majority of the time, Mycroft is having a great time looking out the window and not talking to anyone. Good for him, I say

[redwooding]

Hadn't thought about it the Autistic Brothers theme, but it tracks. In any case, only the 1980s Jeremy Brett Holmes series, with Charles Gray as Mycroft, was reasonably accurate. In contrast, Enola Holmes did Mycroft dirty.

[teaspoonnebula]

I procrastinated on seeing the Robert Downie Jr movies until recently and I was delighted that they did right by Mycroft.

Successful trans men

I wish I knew about men like these growing up, I wish I knew that trans men could be successful after a lifetime of never seeing anyone ‘like me’ excelling in life. So here are some trans men - some that you may have heard of, some that you may not - that are successful in a range of careers. Never let being trans hold you back, never think you can’t do something, never think there is not a place for you.

Ben Barres American neurobiologist for Stanford University and advocate for women in science. Barre’s research on the interactions between glial cells and neurons changed the way that we understand the brain and opened up a whole new field of research.

Stephen Whittle Professor of equalities law. Founder of FTM Network in 1989 and Press for Change in 1992. Whittle has been heavily involved in trans activism since joining the Self Help Association for Transsexuals in 1979. His research and activism has been instrumental in ensuring the rights of trans people in the UK.

Michael D Cohen Actor, teacher and coach. Making his break in award-winning Nickelodeon sitcoms Harvey Danger and Danger Force he was the first series regular actor to publicly come out as transgender. Cohen has a BSc in cell biology and a masters degree in adult education, teaching at his own acting studio and providing workshops.

Chris Mosier American triathlete and award-winning coach. Six time member of Team USA in both duathlon and triathlon, Mosier also won two national championships in racewalking and was the first transgender athlete to qualify for the Olympic trials to compete against other members of his gender.

Yance Ford African-American film producer and director. Ford received an Emmy for Exceptional Merit in Documentary Filmmaking and was nominated for an Oscar for his part in producing and directing the documentary Strong Island which follows the death of his brother.

Kael McKenzie Canadian judge. Serving in the Canadian Armed Forces for several years, McKenzie later attended law school and and worked as a lawyer before being appointed as a judge to the Provincial Court of Manitoba in 2015. 

Shane Ortega Native American former flight engineer in the US army, former marine and professional bodybuilder. Throughout his career Ortega has served in Iraq and Afghanistan in over 400 combat missions. He has a long history of advocating for the repeal of Don’t Ask Don’t Tell and the recent banning on transgender service members in the US army. 

Drago Renteria Chicano photojournalist and deaf and LGBT activist. Renteria founded the Deaf Queer Resource and is CEO of DeafVision - a webhosting and development company run by deaf people and the founder of the National Deaf LGBTQ Archives. Renteria has been instrumental in both creating and hosting many online deaf/queer spaces online along with being heavily involved in real-world activism for decades.

Phillipe Cunningham Elected city councillor for ward 4 Minneapolis and previous special education teacher, Cunningham holds a masters degrees in Organizational Leadership & Civic Engagement and in Police Administration and is passionate about tacking inequalities in his community. 

[jenroses]

The vast majority of these men did not get puberty blockers early. I think that’s important for trans youth to know… that stupid legislation can’t stop them from being trans and transitioning well, even if the hoops are worse and take longer. (I think trans youth should be able to transition when and how they need to, but in the face of current transphobic legislation, you need to understand that even if they manage to delay you, they can’t stop you.)

[grison-in-space]

Ben Barres, in fact, didn’t transition until he was 43 and already a full fledged neuroscientist in a faculty position. He chose to use his circumstances, and the differences in treatment he experienced after transitioning, to draw attention to gender discrimination in his chosen field in all directions. I’ve spoken to a number of people who knew him over the years and have never heard anyone express anything but profound affection and admiration for him as a mentor and a teacher as well as a groundbreaking scientist.

So, you know. They really can’t stop you. Sometimes in science I hear trans folks, especially transmasc folks, expressing fear that they’re somehow letting the side down by choosing to live life in the way that feels most authentic to themselves. Ben’s legacy puts the lie to that fear: in choosing to transition in 1997, very publicly — in academia your name is part of your publication record and all his previous work was obviously published under his deadname — he was able to use his particular perspective and unique experiences to advocate for others even harder than he might otherwise have been able to do.

His memory is a blessing. His legacy is a gift.

[gaylienz]

happy PRIDE i’m here i’m queer and i believe the land should be given back to the proper indigenous stewards.

[gaylienz]

Non-Natives reblogging this are great and wonderful

[lierdumoa]

Please remember that "land back" does not mean "indigenous people are mystical elves with innate epigenetic wisdom of land stewardship and they don't belong in big cities," nor does it mean "non-indigenous people can't be farmers." What it DOES mean is that "non-indigenous farmers should be paying the equivalent of property taxes to the native governments their land was stolen from." It means, "there's a great deal of indigenous scholarship on sustainable agricultural practices that farmers should be taking into account, because indigenous agriculture was more advanced than European agriculture at the time Europe invaded the Americas and western agriculture *still* hasn't caught up in terms of figuring out how to produce equivalently high crop yields without compromising the ecosystem." It means, "non-indigenous farmers should be in an intellectual discourse with indigenous agricultural scientists and indigenous peoples that still do traditional farming, figuring how to repair the damage western farming practices have done to the ecosystem."

[red-dead-revival]

It also means that indigenous peoples should regain the right to sustain themselves on the land according to the practices they want, and they should have free reign to perform their cultural practices and protect their holy sites, as opposed to the current model where if they try to honor their dead on public lands they get violently removed.

[bogleech]

People also get angry at this concept thinking it'd mean non-native people getting mass evicted from their homes but 1) your home is already owned by a bank or big business or government, the difference would mainly be who you're now paying rent to and 2) most of the land in America isn't residential anyway.

This topic isn't about your house that you're already struggling to pay for, it's about thousands of miles of the planet rotting away under the monopoly of big agriculture and oil, but hypothetically speaking I think a local tribe would treat you a shitload better than whatever inhuman real estate brand you're already at the mercy of.

Honestly the fact that Kindle didn't automatically come in color and they're just now releasing one in color that is 300 DOLLARS is some kinda bullshit ngl

[c-is-for-circinate]

There are a lot of abuse and recovery stories out there in fandom.  A lot of them are written by people who’ve never been in an abusive relationship.  That’s fine, that certainly doesn’t mean you can't write it, especially when it’s present in canon.  Unfortunately, it does mean that a lot of people get it wrong.

The usual abuse narrative you see in fandom is a story about absence.  The lack of safety.  The lack of freedom.  The lack of love, or of hope, or of trust.  They try to characterize the life of an abused kid, or an abused partner, based on what’s missing.  They characterize recovery based on getting things back: finding safety, discovering freedom, and slowly regaining the ability to trust–other people, the security of the world, themselves.

That doesn’t work.  That is not how it works.

Lives cannot be characterized by negative space.  This is a statement about writing.  It’s also a statement about life.

You can’t write about somebody by describing what isn’t there.  Or you can, but you’ll get a strange, inverted, abstracted picture of a life, with none of the right detail.  A silhouette.  The gaps are real but they're not the point.

If you’re writing a story, you need to make it about the things that are there.  Don’t try to tell me about the absence of safety.  Safety is relative.  There are moments of more or less safety all throughout your character’s day.  Absolute safety doesn’t exist in anyone’s life, abusive situation or not.

If you are trying to tell me a story about not feeling safe, then the question you need to be thinking about is, when safety is gone, what grows in the space it left behind?

Don’t try to tell me a story about a life characterized by the lack of safety.  Tell me a story about a life defined by the presence of fear.

What's there in somebody’s life when their safety, their freedom, their hope and trust are all gone?  It’s not just gaps waiting to be filled when everything comes out right in the end.  It’s not just a void.

The absence of safety is the presence of fear.  The absence of freedom is the presence of rules, the constant litany of must do this and don’t do that and a very very complicated kind of math beneath every single decision.  The lack of love feels like self-loathing.  The lack of trust translates as learning skills and strategies and skepticism, how to get what you need because you can’t be sure it’ll be there otherwise.

You don’t draw the lack of hope by telling me how your character rarely dares to dream about having better.  You draw it by telling me all the ways your character is up to their neck in what it takes to survive this life, this now, by telling me all the plans they do have and never once in any of them mentioning the idea of getting out.

This is of major importance when it comes to aftermath stories, too.  Your character isn’t a hollow shell to be filled with trust and affection and security.  Your character is full.  They are brimming over with coping mechanisms and certainties about the world.  They are packed with strategies and quickfire risk-reward assessments, and depending on the person it may look more calculated or more instinctual, but it’s there.  It’s always there.  You’re not filling holes or teaching your teenage/adult character basic facts of life like they’re a child.  You’re taking a human being out of one culture and trying to immerse them in another. People who are abused make choices.  In a world where the ‘wrong’ choice means pain and injury, they make a damn career out of figuring out and trying to make the right choice, again and again and again.  People who are abused have a framework for the world, they are not utterly baffled by everyone else, they make assumptions and fit observations together in a way that corresponds with the world they know.

They’re not little lost children.  They’re not empty.  They’re human beings trying to live in a way that’s as natural for them as life is for anybody, and if you’re going to write abuse/recovery, you need to know that in your bones.

Don’t tell me about gaps.  Tell me about what’s there instead.

[versegm]

Literally cannot emphasize enough that my #1 writing advice is to stop being afraid. Stop being afraid of sounding too cringe, or too stupid, or too horrifying, or too horny, or too weird, or too much, or too little, or too you. You need to put your entire pussy into your art. Sure, it won't be to everyone's tastes, but if you keep yourself to the blandest tamest safest roads possible you will be of no one's tastes, not even yours.

[ogsherlockholmes]

Modern version of The Hound of the Baskervilles where Watson is texting Holmes all the details and Holmes gets discovered when he forgets to put his phone on silent.

Watson is walking through the moors with Sir Henry and tells Holmes they’re following the convict, then you hear that loud ticking clock notification followed by Holmes saying shit and scrambling down from the hill.
