Your destiny lies elsewhere. The Great Prophecy right? I planned to tell you myself, nearer your sixteenth year, but, I suppose there is no ideal age to carry the burden of deciding the fate of the universe.

And there you go, that's the show. (and also my sallyposeidon heart)

"It's almost a comforting thought that Percy's not just born out of Poseidon wanting glory and his son to be the one to save Olympus. He was born because his dad loved his mom. And I think that's kind of special for him to hear." - Walker Scobell

"Dance, you guys!" Thalia ordered. "You look stupid just standing there." I looked nervously at Annabeth, then at the groups of girls who were roaming the gym. "Well?" Annabeth said. "Um, who should I ask?" She punched me in the gut. "Me, Seaweed Brain." "Oh. Oh, right." PERCY JACKSON & THE OLYMPIANS: THE TITAN'S CURSE

zeus turning thalia into a tree as punishment for his own mistake (of having her!! her only mistake was that she was born which was not in her control!!!) instead of as an act of mercy, and then forcing chiron and everyone else to lie and say he saved her, is such a good change from the books i wonder why it wasn't done in the books. this choice makes the choice thalia is going to make - which side she's going to be on - an actual problem. also her being 15 and frozen in time as a tree instead of slowly aging makes so much more sense. like this change really shows you why it was so easy for kronos to manipulate luke, because the gods really do not care about them, they've never cared, and it won't be crazy to think that their children would want revenge. what a great writing decision pjotv writers i love you so much

"There's another boyfriend?"

Boy was APPALLED

[violetdaphne]

like. i’m just supposed to be normal about percy bodily blocking annabeth from tantalus. i’m just supposed to be normal about percy putting annabeth behind him when tantalus is aiming a celestial bronze tipped arrow at them. i’m just supposed to be normal about percy instinctually holding out his arm in front of annabeth to protect her even when they’re in the middle of an argument, when he thinks she’s betraying him. i’m just supposed to be normal getting war flashbacks to “nobody touches her”. i’m supposed to go about my day as normal when percy jackson casually puts annabeth’s safety before his own.

yall ever just. beat tears of the kingdom two years late.

I live in Chicagoland and have family friends who are brown and undocumented. It’s not good here.

[rosethornewrites]

I want to specify that the US government ICE agents rapelled from Blackhawk helicopters to take over an apartment building, breaking open apartment doors in the middle of the night to drag barely-clad residents from their homes and detain everyone in UHaul trucks with the children zip-tied to each other. Regardless of citizenship.

There was too much traffic today, and an ICE agent deployed a tear gas canister in traffic in response.

This is not normal.

[theplaguebeast]

From the very bottom of my heart: what the ACTUAL FUCK

[rosethornewrites]

It’s not even near me yet, but where I live there’s lots of brown folks so they’ll come.

This is surreal. We’re being attacked by the United States.

"ICE Agents Rappel From Black Hawk Helicopters Into Chicago for Major Raid" - MSN, published October 1st, 2025

Most mainstream media is barely covering it.

I genuinely wish I were surprised by that.

Occasionally as an Australian you'll be talking to someone from overseas, and you'll discover a common phrase you took for granted is, in fact, not universally known outside of our country.

Turns out casually dropping "fuck me dead" into conversation will give unsuspecting Americans an aneurism.

The more you know.

[batshit-auspol]

Imagine being on a work call with an Aussie and they suddenly announce they're gonna blow a load in response to a problem.

[fred-the-dinosaur]

Not Aussie but I asked an American once if she was taking the piss ( i.e. pulling my leg, joking. Perfectly cromulent and friendly english expression)

and she got really upset because she thought I was threatening to piss ON her

[honiibbang]

This is killing me

[batshit-auspol]

Rifling through the tags, here's some other terms which are apparently causing mass carnage whenever they escape our borders:

Having a goon (i.e. Sipping on a delightful wine)

Having a gaytime (Eating an icecream)

Having a sticky beak (Investigating)

Take a squiz (To have a sticky beak)

Get stuffed (To express a revelation is most frightful)

Chuck a sickie (Take a day off work due to the humours being misaligned)

Chuck a wobbly (When one's temperament becomes visibly upset)

Carry on like a pork chop (Acting most silly indeed)

Thongs (flip flops)

Hot chook (Pre-cooked supermarket rotisserie chicken, otherwise known as the Bachelor's Handbag)

Fair suck of the sauce bottle (Let's be real)

Shits me to tears (Something is mildly annoying)

Not here to fuck spiders (Expressing a situation is serious)

Having a piss-up (A social gathering)

I'll shout you (offering to goon an old chum)

A cruisy place (a relaxed atmosphere, where one might shout and goon the night away while enjoying many a gaytime in your favourite thongs)

[batshit-auspol]

When you fuck up a work call so bad it gets your entire country trending on social media

[batshit-auspol]

A NATIONAL NEWS HOST has now weighed in on this post 😭

We are not a serious country

[maimonideznuts]

I can't believe nobody mentioned "don't piss in my pocket", meaning "don't pretend you're doing me a favour"

[grabowskibeepboop]

I'm not american but I swear to god some of these if not most had to have been made up on the spot... It's like someone fell off Babel and hit their head really fucking hard

[free-and-to-none-accountable]

I bet they're gonna find some random luigi off the street who "fits the description" and try to pass him off

Addendum to prophecy: And they're not even gonna try real hard

[zanmor]

Using engraved bullets? That fits the MO of the United Health shooter. #hesstilloutthere #ibelieve

[i-love-applin]

Honestly I think they just made that part up. They didn't specify what was actually engraved on it. And no photo evidence of that claim?

How do you even engrave "gender ideology" onto a rifle? Did they give the rifle they/them pronouns?

[free-and-to-none-accountable]

Ah yes. The transgender arrows.

[free-and-to-none-accountable]

Update: It may be even more stupiderer than any of us could ever have anticipated

I feel like tumblrites have been a bit down lately, we really could use another British Royal Family Death to boost morale.

hey so the Israeli military sprayed a chemical irritant on a civilian UK flag carrying ship carrying aid to Gaza. And then boarded and kidnapped the humanitarians and journalists on board, including Greta Thunberg, Rima Hassan (French MEP), and 10 other humanitarians and journalists.

In International Waters, ships are considered the territory of the state whose flag they carry. Israel just kidnapped civilians from 7 different countries from UK territory after spraying them with a chemical irritant. I'm pretty sure that's an act of war against the UK.
