Hi 👋

This blog is 99% reblogs with a few original posts. It runs on an almost-24/7 queue in addition to occasional reblog sprees. Thanks for stopping by!

Here are some fun tag links, this blog is now over 10 years old so there’s a lot of posts.

art - basically all the art I’ve ever reblogged

Blessed!image / blessed!video / blessed!post - posts that make me feel humanity or the earth in general is good

Writing - writing advice and tidbits from other tumblrs Ringtones - here’s a link to a reblog I made once where I described how to use custom ringtones on iPhones, and here’s a direct link to my ringtone repository [android users you will need to convert to .mp3, I’ve done that for a few meme-y ones like Justin Timberlake saying MAY but the rest are in iOS format sorry!] Sailing - I don’t always want my pics and videos to enter the sailing tag’s whole-tumblr gaze so sometimes sailing posts will be tagged op (and hence lumped in with all my other original posts sorry) or just boat things ✨. Once old enough that the algorithm should ignore them/if they are a reblog, they will be appropriately tagged sailing.

Asks are infrequent and usually about sailing and captaining lol so putting this under here

Star Trek - lots in here lol Pop-up gif of Giles from Buffy the Vampire Slayer (only visible on featheredfriend.tumblr.com not the in-dash page) is from user scarletsword.

What I tag for below the cut:

I’ll do my best to tag for the following on this blog, but I’ll sometimes forget:

art, DS9 (deep space nine), NSFW (be warned: I wont tag all nudity as NSFW), photography, police brutality, police/cops, star trek, TNG (the next generation), UK politics, US news, US politics.

In elementary school, my best friend and I had this game we would play where we were school supplies living inside a child's desk and going on slice-of-life adventures inside it. And I remember that a key component of our school supply society was a sort of religious schism that existed around the purpose and nature of the giant hand that occasionally reached in to grab different citizens, use them, and then return them, because most school supplies considered this an auspicious and enviable moment of being selected for a greater purpose and allowed a glimpse of a vast truth, but pencils considered it a horrible portent of doom because they always got sharpened during it and came back smaller and closer to death. We were third graders btw.

Wow thanks everyone ;v;

Mini lore snippet lol: at first I just doodled the cat alone in the middle of a page, but I loved him so much I just turned the page and drew the whole thing. He's so great.

I think about Matti every day

[xx-k1tsun3-k1d-xx]

[xx-k1tsun3-k1d-xx]

happy pride month to transgender marill pokemon <3

[doing-90mph-in-central-london]

if he was still alive I know in my heart that Terry Pratchett would have done a bit about Igors and Igorinas doing gender confirmation surgery by now. going into a lab full of bubbling vials and picking out a penis from a tank the way you pick a lobster. that one, please. you gotta be careful though because they'll really try to upsell you into getting two or three installed. people going to the clinic as pairs and just having parts swapped out for a discounted rate. maybe you actually just trade brains, that's even easier. Igorth have already been doing that thurgery for thenturieth.

#one day an igor forgets the lock the cage and a pack of penises escapes into ankh-morpork#the watch spends the next three weeks rounding them up

how DARE you leave this in the tags (affectionate)

[pycnanthemum]

Everyone knew it was best not to look too closely at Igor's jars.

Vimes was beginning to wish he had looked more closely at the most recent additions before Igor came lurching up the stairs to inform him:

"They have ethcaped, thir."

"Escaped. What has escaped, Igor."

"Thome of my.. appendageth, thir."

"Appendages."

"Yeth, thir. Of the... intimate variety."

"Of the intimate..." Vimes trailed off as the dawning horror overwhelmed his vocal cords.

He rallied. "Igor. HOW have they escaped? They are not known for their... perambulatory abilities."

"Really, thir? I've alwayth found them to have a mind of their own at timeth."

Vimes was staying calm. Yes. That was it. He was staying very calm. Definitely NOT thinking AT ALL about how Vetinari and... Good lord, The Times, would react to marauding pack of penises. Would it be a pack? Or would they go off on their own?

"I wath exthperimenting with cuthtom grown oneth, you know. For thothe who cannot grow their own."

"Err... what? Of course you were. I mean. Very good."

[the-tao-of-fandom]

It turns out to be a brilliant feat of advertisement, as the people too shy or uncertain to go visit Igor rightaway effectively get a chance to discretely window-shop in public.

[elodieunderglass]

An unfortunate side effect being that a small girl, denied of her rightful need to be a Horse Girl by the limitations of being a native Ankh-Morpork child[1], would have adopted one of the larger Appendages of the pack and named it Free Willy. Her insistence that she could understand her pet through a bond of mutual sympathy was both touching and troubling, as was her announcement that Free Willy did not want to be attached to a governing body and forced into service, saddled with clothing, or made to perform tricks for audiences. With no Igor having the heart [2] to take it from her, the child was allowed to keep Free Willy, who lived for five healthy years in her family’s pigeon loft and eventually passed away from natural causes after a battle with another fighting cock. The child went on to write a well-acclaimed children’s book, The Willy that Would Be Free, which was, necessarily, a pop-up book.

Look, it got longer.

[elodieunderglass]

So did Free Willy.

[ublock-origin]

what the fuck do you mean your keyboard doesnt have letters

We have no letters Kathleen!

[ublock-origin]

some 8ish years now i reckon

i have naturally acidic sweat. it's a family thing

[ublock-origin]

we have already. They don't know exactly what is up with it, other than the sweat being slightly more acidic than normal and the acidic mantle being thicker and Way more acidic than normal, but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with acidosis. As far as we have tested, our family has had this since at least my great grandpa, and the guy lived to be 93 years old.

[captain-price-unofficially]

What the fuck.

[naggingatlas]

op is a xenomorph descendant from that one time ripley fucked the queen

[ublock-origin]

Because in its younger days it used to have RGB lights:

Some of them still work, when they want:

Though I've long forgotten how to change the color settings

[ublock-origin]

NEVERMIND I JUST REMEMBERED HOW

[lastoneout]

Imagine trying to claim op is wasteful for using a plastic keyboard after they show off something that looks like it belongs at Old Friends Senior Keyboard Sanctuary.

[sadomarxist]

Hey! OP here! I had no idea this post was still circulating after my old blog got terminated (two or three times, I lost count)! Guess what?

10 years and still going strong! Got rid of the rest of the paint on top of the keys too.

[alinethered]

11 years and still holding up. Love your keyboard and it will love you back

[alinethered]

I regret to inform that the windows key has died. luckily i managed to assign the numpad , key as the new windows key, which does sadly mean i need to have numlock off to use it.

It's actually super unethical to keep a peeve as a pet

[blessyouhawkeye]

forever thinking about that girl at my uni orientation who, after being told to pour out her water bottle before entering an event, looked at me and said "they tell us to stay hydrated and then make us pour out our water, this is like totally kafkaesque" and then poured out what was very obviously an entire water bottle full of whiskey. hope she's doing well.

this best thing about this is the meme format conditions you to expect a follow up statement and it’s absence contributes to a sense of stillness, simulating the experience of just sitting in your truck
