Fandom: A Love/Hate Story

*American*(but often not happy about it)*30s*she/her* This blog started as an expression of how much I simultaneously love and hate Once Upon a Time, and it turns out that that’s true for pretty much any media I’m really into. On that note, this has largely turned into an MCU blog (mainly pre-Ragnarok Loki, Steve, and Bucky).

the contrabass saxophone is such an absurd instrument

[medicalalucard-deactivated20201]

talk dirty to me

[illogicalhumanoid]

Have ya’ll seen the double contrabass flute before???

[131-di]

reblogging my own post because what in the fuck

[leaf-jelly]

i give you the contrabass tuba. Why is it real. I dont know.

[carbink]

Know what’s even better?

HYPERBASS FLUTE

[paulsrockinpagoda]

my counter:

piccolo trombone 

[gottabeastringplayer]

I’m both glad and sad that string players are only limited to violin, viola, cello, and bass. Can you imagine a contrabass? Or a piccolo violin????

[wielderofscythes]

String players are not limited to just those.

I present, THE OCTOBASS

It’s so big that it needs keys to hit the strings.

And in the reverse direction there exists the Pochette. Translated from French, it means pocket, as it was a pocket sized violin like instrument.

[girl-detector]

[butterfly-sapphic]

I present to you, the Contrabass recorder.

[the-davest-of-uncles]

If all these instruments would play at the same time, humpback whales worldwide would sing along.

I may not have faith in the ability of Democrats to fix everything, but I have so fucking much faith in the ability of Republicans to make things worse. That is an easy fucking choice.

[gabbigabriella]

This is one of those legendary posts that’s been around since I first made a Tumblr. When I didn’t have access to my Tumblr for a few years I would sometimes reference this post. Iconic lol

happy ten years to captain america: civil war, the mcu film that marked the downward spiral of the mcu & the unpopular prioritization of robert downey jr's screen time

[dedalvs]

I did an in depth presentation on syllables for a conlang class back in 2021. I think it's a pretty good low level introduction for those interested.

Reenactor throws a spear at a drone

[supapoopa]

What a time to be alive.

[tenthcorner]

“The medieval warrior, realizing the consequences of his impulsive act, immediately approached the owner of the drone and offered to pay for the damage.

The owner of the drone was so impressed by the brilliant attack that he suggested organizing a competition for bringing down “dragons” with short spears next year.

Drone owners have another year to develop a unique “dragon-like” design for their flying machines.” (x)

[kineticpenguin]

I am 100% cooler with this knowing that the spear-thrower realized “oops maybe I shouldn’t have done that” and tried to make it right, and that the guy who the drone belonged to was cool with it

[brunhiddensmusings]

just so everyone knows, this has already been memorialized in a runestone

[stephendann]

Everything about this post blesses those involved with a +4 on their next Today is Good Day roll

[fromaliminalspace]

a rough translation of inscription on the runestone:

On the seventh day of May in the year of 2016 on hither spot the mighty warrior Ulf hath slain a dragon with his spear.

so yeah, happy birthday to this dragon-slaying event and to it only

[nonlinear-nonsubjective]

Happy Ulf Hath Slain A Dragon With His Spear!

Mel and her ED friends, the two black cat coded sarcastic assholes that are softer with her and hate each other 🤝🏻 Trinity and her ED friends, the two blondes that look like victorian sickly children who can't catch a social cue or pop culture reference to save their lives

[whimsy-m0th]

I love that shipping culture in the Pitt fandom is literally just a choose you own adventure: HR nightmare edition

[undying-princess]

knowing how it tends to go with male authors and their wives it was probably marge who wrote the odyssey

[utopians]

We need to study the powerful psychic field around tumblr posts that causes people to hallucinate entire lines and paragraphs that are not present in the actual text

[strangestcase]

how dare you accuse me of putting orphans in a woodchipper

sorry for being a hater i want to be a lover but everything pisses me off

april fools day is actually the most sensible day of the year because it's the only day on which people will read something on the internet and stop for a second to consider whether or not it's actually true

[philosopherking1887]

They should start calling it April Media Literacy Day.
