IK IM ON HIATUS BUT I COULDN'T SLEEP

buy me a coffee? | my art tag | lmao tag ü | asks I seem to alternate between angst and silly so please make sure you check and filter the tags (you can flick me an ask about these things) please don't take/repost/make a profit from my art without permission. Guess I should say I'm mid-20s right now. Yes I just popped out of nowhere and started tagging and bugging everyone. multi-fandom multi-shipping I guess. I'm not really into the whole shipping thing tbh PLEASE let me know if I've done something that made you uncomfortable. Believe it or not I don't actively try to be an ass.

[thesassycat]

You can only reblog this today.

[askjennaflorida]

I missed my chance last year. Not gonna let it happen again

[thorndykes-deactivated20161204]

please stop reblogging sylvia plath poetry 

[thorndykes-deactivated20161204]

For ppl asking why she’s an anti black, anti Semite. She has used the n word and compared her depression to the holocaust

[transwolvie]

Even not counting her poetry her private journals are full of disgusting, overblown antisemitism. She didn’t just use Jewish people for her metaphors, she outright hated them irl and yet decided to use their suffering for her own gain

[foulserpent]

here’s a source with some quotes

[meta-hemeralism-blog]

okay, I’m Jewish and I appreciate this sentiment. and if someone wants to cut out Sylvia Plath, go for it, I get it.

But. by this logic we’d also need to stop reblogging TS Eliot, Oscar Wilde, and Shakespeare quotes. Virginia Woolf wrote anti-semetic things in her private journals, too. If you only want to read classic poets who liked Jews and black people, that’s fine, but like. good luck? Sylvia Plath isn’t an exception.

idk. Tumblr’s attitude of “consume nothing problematic” just doesn’t work if you’re part of a group that most culture-creators over the last few centuries have hated by default. For people actually in those groups, it’s not like the only two choices are 1) worship authors who hate you or 2) completely cut the majority of literature out of your life. You learn to read critically and acknowledge flaws where you find them.

anyway, as a Jewish woman, I would much rather see a version of this post that said “please read Sylvia Plath poetry critically because she’s anti black and antisemetic” than just “stop reblogging Sylvia Plath poetry.”

IMO, reblog Sylvia Plath all you want, just not unthinkingly.

[kat2107]

Sometimes I fell like tumblr has put itself on the the extreme opposite of “consume stuff incritically”

“Don’t consume stuff instead of dealing with it.”

If I ignore its existence then I won’t have to take a layered view on it. 

But guys… anti-semitism is a thing and it’s been a rampant thing for centuries. You can’t ignore that the middle ages or the early 20th century existed. Or heck, the middle of the 20th century in the US. 

People always are a product of their times. And some times where just racist as fuck! That was normal! And that is something you have to look at and look at critically because these times will return. And very normal people who are talented and nice will have very horrible, unthinking opinions. 

That includes you, btw. 

So think instead of ignore.

[can0n-fodder]

My history professors were always trying to tell us that you CAN NOT view the past through a contemporary lens if you expect to have any kind of understanding of the past. And “understanding” does not mean acceptance, so let’s get that out of the way right now.   We have the privilege–yes, PRIVILEGE–of living in a time that is the product of other people’s grueling hard work, of centuries of people before us being arrested, beaten up, impoverished, KILLED so that we could stand on our high horses and be proud of growing up in the enlightenment they made for us. Any one of us unlucky enough to have been born 100, 200 year ago would like 99% be racists, anti Semites, and probably misogynists (yes, even minority groups, because anti Semitism and misogyny have long histories in black culture too) because the only way to not be all that in a world where it was so normal it was like believing in gravity was to be exceptional. I mean, beyond your time philosophical genius kind of  exceptional. For any of us to believe that we would just magically be all enlightened and woke if we hadn’t had the benefit of a world around us teaching us not to be is an insane level of arrogance. It would be like trust-fund Brad insisting he would still be a success even if he hadn’t inherited 80% of a company to start. No, Brad, someone did all that work before you were born buddy.  Even the amazing people who were taking leaps to end various discriminations a century ago are still problematic. The white abolitionists were definitely racist by our standards, just not racist enough to want slavery (and most of them were insane Christian fundamentalists who had no tolerance for any other creed). But it would be insane and a gross dereliction of historical duty to just ignore these people and pretend they didn’t exist because they couldn’t magically meet all our privileged standards 170 years ago.

[langernameohnebedeutung]

I’m re-watching Captain America Civil War and- They told Bucky to kill Tony’s parents without witnesses and he manages to find the probably only forest in the world with a random security camera by the road-side and kills them exactly in front of that security camera while looking right at said security camera when he disables it and also fails to make sure that the tape inside is destroyed how can you screw up so bad? 

[bloodyneptune-deactivated201808]

imagine how many people Hydra had on staff specifically to follow him around, wiping cameras, picking up his 27 discarded weapons, paying off/killing that entire cafe he once strolled into at noon and shot a dude in.

the guy strolled down fuckin Main Street Washington with a grenade launcher, that “ghost story” reputation did not come easy.

[langernameohnebedeutung]

I wondered that too - if he does everything like that attack on Fury how is he a fucking ghost-story?  Imagine that’s your job like: “Okay, you know how this works. We’re missing a rocket launcher, a mask, three hand-guns, the corpse of the target, two daggers with his finger-prints on them, the Asset’s mask and a helicopter. All of which are somewhere in [whatever city] and have to be retrieved in less than two hours. Go!” “Ermm…boss? There’s another YouTube video.” “He’s a brilliant assassin they said. The best there is they said.” For lack of a better explanation, I’ll attribute it to Bucky’s sub-conscious trying to make shit difficult for them.

[bloodyneptune-deactivated201808]

*spooky sounds* i am a ghost story

was i even there?

u cant be sure

was that a breeze, or was it me?

u’ll never know…

[rebelmeg]

I CAN’T STOP LAUGHING

[iamshadow21]

Not to bring the mood down, but I like the idea that Bucky picks that place because the trace of him that still exists wants there to be a record. It’s not enough autonomy to save his friend, but it’s enough to save an account of the truth.

[copperbadge]

I also assume they let him loose in a big way in DC because they knew they wouldn’t need him anymore once the Helicarriers were up. At that point he becomes a liability bigger than an asset. So who cares if they see him now; he’s going to be put down for good as soon as he’s done here. 

[delistylehardcore]

it rly is weird how theres this culture in progressive spaces where like you can be as mean, as CRUEL even, as you want as long as youre not being explicitly bigoted towards any marginalized group of people and still be seen as a really good person with good morals who nobody is allowed to have beef with bc theyve never done anything racist or homophobic

[writingromanoff]

I’m aware this is a long-shot

I don’t have many followers here, at least, not compared to my AO3 subscriptions, so this is… dubious at best, and I’m expecting much. But I’m a student, who needs to make rent, so I’m desperate at this point.

I have a student loan, but it doesn’t cover it for my final semester. I don’t qualify for any financial aid. I’m fucked.

I can launch into a spiel about how much everyone should support fic writers etc but I know that’s not viable; most of you are as poor as me. But if there is anyone out there who has even enjoyed my work a tiny bit over the past five years, or who has £3 that’s just burning a hole in their pocket, please consider donating to my ko-fi:

Buy Me a Coffee

For example, if everyone subscribed to date to my latest work, Into The Fold, donated one coffee, I would have almost £1000; that’s basically the amount I need to pay, just like that. I know that’s probably unrealistic, but if even just 5 people donated that would be something!

At the end of the day, I know that most people have other priorities and that’s absolutely fine. I’ll also be opening commissions starting from June 9th; anyone who wants a story commissioned, the prices will be as follows:

£7.50 = 1000 words

£12.00 = 2000 words

£16.50 = 3000 words

£21.00 = 4000 words

£25.50 = 5000 words

(For fics above 5000 words, there will be consultation over price // I write literally anything; I have zero squicks/triggers)

Again: if you have ever, ever, liked even one of my fics enough to follow me or subscribe to me, please consider that as the years go on, it’s harder for me to turn out content. I know this is a long-shot, I know barely any of you follow me here, but I’ll be pleading over on AO3 as well.

If you took time to read this, thank you! If you would like a story commissioned, DM me or message me with anon off! If you read this, and know you can’t donate anything, no worries! I appreciate you and thank you for your time, have a nice day!

[thanosthot]

reblog for visibility! 

[aurumacadicus]

writingromanoff is a babe and wrote my favorite story ever Pick Yourself Undone so let’s support them

[daydream-terminus]

The decision to associate the Star of David and lizard people is something the creator chose to do. Thanos may also be being antisemitic, but the choice to give the lizard people literally anything but Jewish symbols of religion was fully in the hand of the creator. A heart with a jagged outline, an upside down tree, a simple pink circle, ANY OF THOSE would not have connected jewishness and lizard people. It was the creator's choice and one they should be condemned for.

Ah, so the writer shouldn't have linked it to Jewishness, which has the potential to feed into antisemitism for bigots?tbh I've heard of 'lizard people' but I have no idea of the meaning behind it. I'm thinking that's why I don't really... Hmmmm. Also, I live in such a simple country.My impression with writers and artists is that they tend to like to draw upon real life and history, but this guy really crossed a line huh. What if later on, a hero appears and counters that narrative? And corrects Thanos on him being an arse?But the association has been made, so it's still not good?

[daydream-terminus]

Daydream, the issue is that the creator chose to associate the Star of David and a species of lizard people. There are literally thousands of religious symbols he could have just made up and he went for the bigoted option.

I thought Thanos is a bigoted character? From the little glimpse of what I've seen?

[jessicamiriamdrew]

UHHH I’m reading thanos: the infinity revelation, and thanos goes to steal a holy relic from the Badoon and uh

and then!

What, praytell, the fuck

[maxximoffed]

‘Reptilian origins’ HELLO???

[chuplayswithfire]

Marvel’s fucking canceled, again. Who designed? Anyone know the author and writer?

[jessicamiriamdrew]

Jim Starlin wrote it!

[ayellowbirds]

He’s credited with the lineart/pencils, too.

For goyim who might be confused, the issue here is that there’s a lot of conspiracy theorists who either metaphorically or seriously identify the jewish peoples as being secretly “reptilian”, suggesting we’re inhuman monsters in disguise seeking to infiltrate and conquer Christendom. Here, Starlin has taken the warmongering misogynist reptilian alien race called the Badoon and overtly identified them with Judaism by using the symbol of a six-pointed star in their temple.

Please I was looking for the ocean avengers and turns out this existed since 2010?????

[shipping-isnt-morality]

Good morning! I’m salty.

I think we, as a general community, need to start taking this little moment more seriously.

This, right here? This is asking for consent. It’s a legal necessity, yes, but it is also you, the reader, actively consenting to see adult content; and in doing so, saying that you are of an age to see it, and that you’re emotionally capable of handling it.

You find the content you find behind this warning disgusting, horrifying, upsetting, triggering? You consented. You said you could handle it, and you were able to back out at any time. You take responsibility for yourself when you click through this, and so long as the creator used warnings and tags correctly, you bear full responsibility for its impact on you.

“Children are going to lie about their age” is probably true, but that’s the problem of them and the people who are responsible for them, not the people that they lie to.

If you’re not prepared to see adult content, created by and for adults, don’t fucking click through this. And if you do, for all that’s holy, don’t blame anyone else for it.

[zarekthelordofthefries]

Not to critique evolution, but I would think orange and black stripes wouldn’t be as good for camouflage in a forest as, say, green and black would.

[acceptableduraz]

It turns out a lot of animals can’t see the difference between orange and green!  Elephants, for instance, have dichromatic vision (two types of cones, rather than three like most humans.) 

Check out this diagram from ResearchGate.  It deals with the color vision of horses, who are also generally dichromatic.  (I think, though I’m not sure, that zebras would have the same color vision as horses.)  See how orange and green look to them?

[zarekthelordofthefries]

Not to critique evolution but I think prey animals should be better at telling when their predator is dressed like a traffic cone.

[squeeful]

It doesn’t matter what zebras see, because tigers are not native to Africa and do not naturally hunt zebra.  Tigers are Asian and mostly hunt animals like deer, elk, and buffalo.  These aren’t animals with great color vision.  They don’t need to have it because they don’t eat fruit and so don’t need to know when the berry is ripe vs when it’s not.  Good color vision is too expensive to have if you don’t need it.  Deer put their vision stats in a wide field of vision that is sensitive to motion, low light capabilities, and possibly seeing UV light.  They don’t have great color and lack a lot of acuity, but have a great sense of smell and good hearing.  That’s way more useful if you’re prey.  Deer see well in the blue end of the color spectrum and less well in the red.  This makes sense because deer are most active in the dawn and dusk periods, when there is more blue in the light.  Tigers are taking advantage of deer eyesight by being orange.

We see tigers are being obviously colored because tigers are fruit colored to our tree ape brains.

[thelibrarina]

I don’t know what the best part of this is: implying that deer chose their attributes on a character sheet, or the fact that we get to see tiger colors because they look like a snack.

[authoratmidnight]

Ok but like, I think you underestimate just how well they blend in when actually in the environment. Like, just using tigers as an example.

or how about a leopard?

It’s called ‘disruptive colouration’ because the markings help to break up the animal’s outline against the grasses or rocks. And the rosettes on leopards and jaguars? Sun spots shining through the trees and leaves on the ground.

And this is how hard it is to spot them WITH colour vision. Now imagine the above images but with the limited coloured mentioned above?

[hecate-hollow]

I’m sorry but there is not an animal in that first leopard picture

[authoratmidnight]

Are you, sure about that?

[thecheshirecass-deactivated2018]

“Tigers are fruit colored” is my new favorite phrase.
