@ember-the-pumpkin
Hey guys I've decided to make a new blog that I'll hopefully be more active on and follow some things/fandoms I'm more interested in now (this account has become a time capsule of me two years ago instead of now XD)
The account is @embeestreams if anyone wants to follow, and I won't be active on this blog any more.
Bye guys!!
I feel like this is more relevant on social media because no one will tell you they find you ugly in person but people will fucking tear someone apart in the comments under their selfie if they don’t find them attractive
GUYS I JUST SAW THIS ON TWITTER AND I AM DYING
I scrolled through the notes on this post and my favorite has to be one mockingly accusing Madeline Miller (a Latin and Greek teacher with a Masters in Classics) of needing to do research and she wasn’t a real writer like them.
Anyway when I read that line I immediately understood what she was trying to say.
Articles mentioned (I think, anyway…)

Archaeologist Vinzenz Brinkmann insists his eye-popping reproductions of ancient Greek sculptures are right on target
The Greek colour experience was made of movement and shimmer. Can we ever glimpse what they saw when gazing out to sea?
In February of 2018, the BBC broadcast an eight-part miniseries, Troy: Fall of a City, that told the story of the Trojan War. Netflix later
Honestly, the first time I saw this tweet, I laughed my tits straight into the ocean.
I know what ‘olive skinned’ (and thus variations on it) means, but the author taking the time to have a little laugh, acknowledge that it’s at least a bit funny, and drop some knowledge is appreciated.
And a double thanks to the person I reblogged from for linking the articles.
Reblogging for the linked articles.
It’s amazing how different cultures perceive and describe the colours of this world. Not even starting on genetic differences in colour perception (as in different kinds of colour-“blindness”)
One thing this episode really lingered on is just how much The Owl House is a story about stories -- fandom, and stories told within stories, and breaking the mold to write your own, new one, and history as a narrative and parallels to the past, but also not being beholden to repeat them.
It's Luz stumbling into a magical world and deciding to stay because of the stories she loves. It's Eda telling her there are no chosen ones there, but stories turning out to having real power even when chosen ones don't. It's Luz and Amity having their first real bonding moment in a library, battling a book that came to life. It's Azura bringing them together. It's Luz learning about Philip Wittebane first through the false, polished, carefully curated story he wrote about himself in his diary. It's Eda telling Luz and King the story of how she met Raine before they're ever able to meet them. It's the repeating cycle of grimwalkers, constructed to play roles in a story they were never privy to. It's Caleb only ever being shown through glimpses and snatches of the narrative that swallowed him up, but being present all the same. It's Gus and Hunter stumbling upon Camila's old favorite series and connecting to it the same way she did (and then some). It's the constant meta jokes about various books the characters love mirroring the show. It's the kids on a haunted hayride being told about the Wittebane brothers like they're a ghost story, except they know they were real -- and who the real monster was.
It's meeting your girlfriend because of fandom. It's the book series your dad gifted to you just before he died that brought you much-needed comfort at the time, and so much more in the future. It's looking deep inside and saying "Stories help me be the person I want to be" and "You want me to repeat the way this happened in the past, but I refuse" and "Stories help us remember those who are gone."
It's Luz finally stepping back into the Demon Realm dressed as Azura, the character that lead her there in the first place, at the end of the beginning of the end of the show's own story.
It's about how stories can save your life.
damn. i dont even watch TOH but like can't that little blonde puritan clone boy catch a fucking break.
benny ill kill you if this post blows up and i get nothing but TOH people crying sobbing and throwing up in my tags for the next 3 months
i need to stop picking at my face but the problem is theres Textures On There and i would prefer if there Werent
Absolutely Devastated to discover that attempting to Remove The Textures will cause new, much more Textured Textures To Appear
Surely if I remove this new Texture, however, it will be gone forever.
By Talos, this can’t be happening.
a memento, and a well-intentioned change of perspective
okay, compatriots
Enough time has passed. I’m going to tell you about the best thing I’ve ever done, which has resulted in:
the only person I still know from high school thinking I’m a complete monster, and
another person proposing to me the first day he met me.
Warning for nsfw pranksmanship under the cut. Also, if you’re afraid of the mothman… welcome to the club?

Roxy I’m sorry to say that I first knew you from Reddit and only discovered your Tumblr because amogus euthanasia was on every tumblr and furry subreddit
oh my god.
I have a morbid curiosity about what furries think of this post.
hey, i’m a furry! plenty of my friends are furries! we all think this post is super funny lmao
Well, I know you're a furry.
Look at how you draw hands.
i posted this in january
This post got so popular my friends who don’t really use tumblr saw it.
Y'know everyone talks about the paws but, but that person is drawn with three arms
ive gotten this comment thousands of times
this post was made by a dipshit who hates poly people
unfortunately for them, this is extremely fucking funny
so here's a rebloggable version posted by someone who loves poly people. enjoy :)
I think abt the left 4 dead 2 graffiti so often. Like they really had the human condition nailed huh.
Okay so I had a dream.
I was back at my middle school and my dad was my homeroom teacher. The class is walking down the hall and I see Wilbur Soot with a class of his own.
I realize this is Wilbur Soot, but don't say anything I'm just like: "Oh, I guess this is his day job" and move on.
Well, my dad walks to Wilbur, hands him two pennies and says "Here, take my crew for a little bit" and then walks away.
Wilbur is just kinda like: "....okay" and takes us to his homeroom class, which is so tiny that I end up having to sit at his desk with him, and my handwriting is shit, so I verbalize the thought and say, "My handwriting is shit" and then he starts talking about this famous British writer that my brain made up and how that writer's penmen ship was terrible.
Then, he turns to me and says, "Can you talk like Shakespeare?" and apparently, I could.
I woke up after that.
the other day i had this really vivid dream that tommyinniy and wilbur soot were like, living in the same house, but they constantly had to be making sure that logan paul (who was a raccoon with emo hair) couldnt break in. he could talk like a person, and he did break in during the dream, and started insisting that he knew about the youtube algorithm and that they would find his advice incredibly useful
THROW AWAY THE WHOLE MAN
My Streamer confused necking with wringing someone’s neck so now you get an extra silly doodle
