Crying in the Trapezoid

Welcome to the world of whimsy. A blog of random fandoms and constant fangirling. Not a spoiler free blog, it is however a judge free zone and on occasion nsfw.

Me, delusional: if Tolvy hasn't signed anywhere yet, that means there's still a chance he comes back, right?

daily affirmations:

I am not a jinx to the team I am rooting for

I am allowed to watch a game because my viewership will not alter the outcome of the game

I am but a drop in the bucket and the world is not affected by me watching a game

The score did not change because you looked at it funny

The little girl’s name is Butedmaa and she was just 5 when this picture was taken in 2003 by Han Chengli.

Squares and rectangles: easy to weave!! No cutting means no hemming.

And easy to construct, you don’t have to have complicated seaming and patterning to turn fabric into clothing!

Has anyone already reblogged this with saris? It’s cool how many cultures have similarities like this hidden in plain sight.

The lungi is a traditional garment worn in many southern states of India. It's different from the dhoti, in that it is a tubular shape (like

Since we are here might as well share the dhoti and the lungi

It’s only men in the photos but really anyone can wear them. I am wearing a lungi right now.

I also know Thailand and Sri Lanka have their versions of a lungi as well.

Time for the annual Pride Month reblog of Freddie Mercury and his fabulous cats!

insane to me how, to some people, this is not a common sense

[radioactive-earthshine]

Not sure why it's a new trend among fic readers to assume if the fic has not been posted within the week it's inappropriate to comment on it, like the fic has to be hot out of the oven to give feedback for.

I got a comment on a fic that is less than a year old and it was mostly an apology for being a comment on an "old fic" and how late they were in commenting.

Just comment on the fic. Doesn't matter how old it is.

[mysteryteacup]

Fandom is not social media.

Fandom is not trends.

Fandom is a cross between a library and having a slumber party with your friends.

"Old" means nothing to fic.

I like how the window-washing guy plays along. You get a feeling that this is a regular encounter… (And of course the outside of the window is nice and clean, but the inside has a constellation of little paw-prints…)

Yet another new study debunked the basis for the anti-trans sports bans. It was never about sports but for creating legal avenues for exclusion and abjection. This is one of the largest analyses ever conducted, involving 52 studies and 6,485 trans people. Read the study here.

post so nice had to reblog it twice and force it down everyone's throats

[fleshengine]

At minimum about 4.5 thousand people liked this without reblogging it.

We gotta fix that.
