A Red Head in Austin

I am girl that likes British stuff and Dr. Who. I also like classic rock, Adele, Glee, HP/DM, and Madeline Albright. I love Boston, but I live in Austin and I love it here.

Penthony - the history What you’re looking at is not just a bar chart. It’s a chronicle of collective obsession. A documented timeline of when the fandom decided that Colin could go write in his little travel journal while Penelope found happiness in the arms of his emotionally constipated older brother Anthony. (This chart visualizes the number of fanfics featuring the pairing Anthony Bridgerton / Penelope Featherington created each month on AO3, based on the created_at date, from January 2021 onward. Data was collected by scraping monthly search result pages and counting the number of works returned for each time period.) Yes I'm a huge nerd Thank you for your compliment

Okay that was a delightful 45 min and I managed to get malicos down to 50%-ish most of the encounters after the first couple AWFUL tries. Maybe it won’t be to bad to pick it up again even in my least favorite boss fight

[bewilderebeest]

I do now feel the urge to write cal fic however bc I can’t find the fic I want and also not crazy about parts of the Jedi: survivor story but LOOK I’m in the middle of I think either 2 or 3 long fics already I can’t do this to myself.

Right?

@drdonnaok weigh in on this for me

[drdonnaok]

@bewilderebeest yup that’s me as well

Title: On The Other Side of Town

Author: Marked_by_moonlight

Site: Ao3

Ship: Penelope Featherington/Anthony Bridgerton

Summary:

When Anthony Bridgerton is standing on the front steps of his former mistress after having been rejected, the last thing he expects to see is Penelope Featherington get out of a hired carriage and promptly faint.

So he takes her to his property on the other side of town, far from Grosvenor Square and their own homes, to protect her virtue.

To his surprise, she is Lady Whistledown.

Ykw pisses me off? When canon shippers think they can shame people for shipping whateva the fuck they want. Like get your head out of your ass you boring ass raccoon.

You don't need to shame or put any other ship down in the name of a) "it's weird" b) "it's not canon! It will never be!" c) "this is some white propaganda bigotry blah blah blah"

Who tf are you to call a ship weird? You're the weird one trying to make these judgments about fictional characters. THEY ARE FICTIONAL for godsake. And people who don't ship canon pairs KNOW that they're pair isn't canon, so sit the fuck down. Stop politicizing fiction, please like literally stop not every thing has to be politics let people have fun with what they want and let people ship whatever pair that they want to ship without being called a racist or a bigot.

I am writing this post because I recently saw a take on Twitter where someone was saying that shipping Pen with other btons is some bigotry. I get that it was directed towards people who hate woc BUT WHY DOES EVERYTHING NEEDS TO BE POLITICS. LIKE AS A WOC MYSELF, MY FIRST THOUGHT IS NOT "oh they fucking hate woc cus they hate xyz" When someone dislikes a woc character. Like please touch some grass and get help.

The way in which Ncuti stans Three is so pleasing to me

[burntlikethesun]

Not that previous Doctors were badly dressed, mind. “I love Jon Pertwee, the Third Doctor’s, outfits. Lovely velvet jackets and frilly shirts. I feel a connection to him, our Doctors are the only two who dress like sluts,” he laughs. - Rolling Stone

oh my god Ncuti

The man is just tall enough that he doesn't have to move chairs.

[bobolovesoze]

Fun fact! He did this because Jonathan Frakes had a back problem. It was easier for him to do this

[pokegeek151]

Fascinating! I did not know that!

[saint-batrick]

it's why he's always doing the riker lean, too! where he puts one foot up on something and rests an arm on his own leg! he fucked up his back moving furniture when he was younger.

So Bail, get this, Bail Organa sends some ships to an Imperial-controlled planet. And those ships get stolen by The Rebel Scum. Bail goes ‘how dare you let my ships get stolen I demand full compensation’ and the Imperial Senate goes ‘ohhhHH of course of COURSE we are SO SORRY here are your credits Mr. Senator Organa sir’ and Bail, get this, Bail uses those credits to buy MORE ships and send them on Relief Missions to planets Suffering From Rebel Presences and those ships get STOLEN right out from under the Imperials’ noses. How could this be??? The INCOMPETENCE. In THEIR GREAT EMPIRE.

And Palpatine, who knows Bail had tea on the weekends with Obi-Wan Kenobi, has seventeen different reports on his desk every week telling him that the Empire is compensating Alderaan for losses sustained on Imperial planets and he’s seething as he signs them because he just KNOWS it’s never an accident and he’s actually funding the Rebellion but he can’t do anything about it because Bail, when asked about it, just presses a dramatic hand to his own heart and says, ‘why, Emperor, I have NO IDEA how The Rebel Scum keeps acquiring my vessels. Maybe if YOUR security forces were more effective we wouldn’t be in such a TRAGIC situation so often. Sign here.’
