my friends and i won't fucking stop saying ETERNITY MENTION literally every time the concept of eternity comes up in anything so i made an image for all your ETERNITY MENTION react needs
adding the remaster by @fostersffff onto the post. for your eternity mention needs
Girl, you okay? You heard the word 'Anchor' out of context and you've been staring into space for twenty minutes. Girl, are you thinking about the Divine Fealty again? Girl are you thinking about Veronique, teenage track star turned elect of one of one of the oldest divines? Girl, are you thinking about "I was in a stroller, I think. I was in a stroller at a track meet that my dad was at. And it was raining. And there were--the stroller had hard plastic over the top of it where I sat, and rain was coming down on the hard plastic of the stroller. And I could reach out with my finger and touch the raindrops as they… Do you know what I’m talking about? When rain falls on plastic? And if you touch it from the other side you can kind of push the raindrops around. And I was sat there for--I don’t know, I was in a stroller. And I was pushing these raindrops around and watching them all flow together into big rivers of rain." Girl, are you good!?
ID: A collage of text from Realis, reading: "shit man this Realis is fucked. I just Witnessed The Sense of Dread Observed Near the Back Staircase in the East Wing (Donnie) clap their hands together, and say "My blade is coated with a fluid that always disrupts the Undoing Word of the Band of Black Fire." or some similar +3 Sentence Shit. & everyone who plays Realis turned inside out Had their sentences retired and were thus Countered until the end of the next scene the Newshound did not even get the scoop. That is how much of a mundane problem this is. +0 my Struggler ass is always casting Boosting Bonds with Tokens, or [redacted text] Panic [redacted text]. No, no, wait.

of course, like anybody else would, the first thing i did upon getting my time machine was go back in time and kill hitler when he was just a child. but when i came back a cursory google search revealed that there was some other charismatic guy called jan krupp who staged a coup and took control of germany leading to ww2. so naturally i went back in time and killed him before he could grow up and commit genocide. but i soon discovered that he'd been replaced by another guy. so i continued on this path of killing and tbh i'm not sure how many german babies i've killed at this point and it's a little hard to find old german newspaper clippings from the ww2 period anymore because they underwent a population collapse around the turn of the 20th century. best i can tell it's this weird german serial killer they called "jack-of-the-cradle" who kept killing newborns. but googling "world war 2" doesn't come up with any results so really i think all i need to do is stop this jack guy and then that'll be mission accomplished
idk why people are still trying to do "hear me out"s on tumblr
you could talk about wanting to fuck the space needle on here and people would still call you a poser for insisting on fucking "conventionally attractive architecture" as if that's a coherent, easily-recognizable category
I want to fuck Antoni Gaudi's unbuilt Hotel Attraction skyscraper design
"hear me out" and it's a picture of the most fuckable building you've ever seen. c'mon now.
“hear me out” and it’s the fucking dildopolis
Seeing the diminishment and erasure of the legacy of Anne McCaffrey's Dragonriders of Pern series occur in my actual lifetime is mind-boggling.
You've got people out here making youtube videos about the legacy of dragons and dragonriding in fantasy fiction without talking about the dragonriding Grand Master of SFF herself Anne McCaffrey.
This isn't some obscure thing where I'm trying to promote someone who is only kind of known because of forgotten representation. Anne McCaffrey was A HOUSEHOLD NAME when I was a kid when it comes to fantasy literature. She's the first woman to win a Hugo and to win a Nebula. In 2002 there was a TV pilot filmed for Dragonriders of Pern.
Eragon, Temeraire, Toothless, and the dragons of Fourth Wing exist because these people grew up on the blueprint set by the Pern novels. Talking about dragons and not mentioning Pern is like talking about Orcs and not mentioning Lord of the Rings.
Y'all need to read your fucking classics before you go talking like an authority on a topic. Jesus Christ.
Had to share these tags from @avalonauggie lol
Like literally, I changed my hyper religious father's stance on dragons being evil (ie: symbols of satan 🙄) single-handedly with these books. They had THAT much of an impact and I suspect were the driving force for why so much dragon-related media later on had "good aligned" dragons.
As for McCaffery's feminist views (something that's been brought up repeatedly in the notes), while they don't age particularly well in today's understanding—if you know your history, she very much reads as a First to Second Wave Feminist in the first books with some clear biases and hang-ups that soften a little bit as the series and side stories go on, so do keep that in mind.
She's not perfect, but most other writers (especially male writers) of her time weren't either and you shouldn't pretend they are. Love her or hate her, you can't deny the impact she's had and to do so does a disservice to how far we've come in representation in modern literature.
And yes, that includes dragon representation :D
Why is Vegeboop so unique?
"mtf" and "amab" voted worst acronyms of all time
we don't need "leftist" ways of calling trans women male actually
you can say trans woman. you can just say trans woman
people will criticize tme/tma calling it "the new gender binary" and then go around calling people amab and afab as if they just ran a find and replace in their vocabulary for "male" and "female"
"sex is what's in your chromosomes" is not a neutral statement. that's one of the main reductive oversimplifications that the right have been pushing about sex for years. sex is a combination of physical characteristics, many of which can be changed or removed in the process of medical transition. I cannot wrap my head around why other trans people are so happy to uphold regressive binaristic thinking like this
Its very very important to internalze that sex is not a binary, and to stop using gendered language as a shorthand for sex characteristics.
Trans women do not have "male chromosomes" trans men do not have "female chromosomes" You can just name the chromosomes specifically if it ever matters but 99% of people don't even know their fucking chromosomes anyway. Its transphobe rhetoric, get it out of your mouth.
This is more common for language like "female" or "male" genitals. Normalize the idea that body parts are not gendered. My vagina is male because I am male. Many women have testes. (cis intersex women and transfem women alike) Be specific and name the body part you're talking about if it matters. Free yourself from the prison of a gendered body
But more importantly to the core of this post: stop saying mtf and amab when you can just say woman.
If staff reformed the ban system to stop banning trans women and used the resulting good will to re-introduce pornography, this site would become a juggernaut. It would swallow Twitter whole.
Daily reminder to Americans on this website that American war on Iran is bad because Iranians are getting killed not because you can no longer afford going to the movies in the weekends or refill your car 😒
Y'know what, this reminder also includes non-Americans. Let's watch our words and keep the victims of American aggressions in our heart always
I have never, and will never, use "ofc" to mean "of fucking course". It literally stands for OF Course...
Was driving with my grandmother and in broken English she says “no eyes… no nose… no face. Don’t trust.” To which I looked around wildly in search of this omen of ill portend.
Cybertruck. It was a cybertruck.
