Sometimes I think abt Billie Joe Armstrong and I get so emotional. Does he know how many kids he gave the courage to come out as bisexual. How many people saw him and realized they were like him. Realized there were people like us and he told us what that was and it was Bisexual loud and proud and fuck you if you’ve got a problem with that

These images changed me

They released a song about dressing in drag and fucking men while dressed in drag in 1997. King For A Day is, was, and always will be an extremely radical song, a revolutionary song, I cannot stress this enough especially to people born in the mid 2000’s how incredibly DANGEROUS it was for this very popular punk band to release a song like this back then. Well into the mid 2010’s it was still incredibly rare for anyone to be out and proud somewhere it wasn’t safe. School, work, queer people hid. But in 1997, Green Day released a song about dressing in drag and fucking men.

Like, American Idiot contains the line “Maybe I’m the faggot, America”. People got ANGRY about it. Back then in 2004 when it was released it was because Green Day was “encouraging kids to be gay”. Now when people get angry it’s because they’re ignoring the history and the raw power behind that line, maybe I AM a faggot, fuck you, I like fucking dudes and I don’t care what you have to say about it. Yet I still see people trying to cancel a band made up of THREE BISEXUAL MEN for saying the word faggot.

I strongly suggest people read more about Green Day’s history in the queer community. Billie Joe Armstrong is the reason I even know what bisexuality IS. And that it’s what I am. They had bands like Pansy Division opening for them in the 90’s, they fucking FOUGHT people in the audience for being homophobic. Billie Joe can and will kick your ass while Mike Dirnt and Tré Cool act as his personal hype men and add sound effects with the bass and drums. It fucks.

It’s 2:30 in the morning idk where I was going with this my heart is full of love everyone say Thank you Billie Thank you Mike Thank you Tré. Blows a kiss for every other bisexual. Including myself. Goodnight

People talk a lot of shit about Green Day, but standing up and loudly being yourself and not giving a fuck what people think about it is what punk is all about.

✨Dragon Poll!🐉

What was the media that first introduced you to dragons?

Inheritance Cycle (Eragon series) (Christopher Paolini)

Flight Rising

His Majesty’s Dragon (Temeraire series) (Naomi Novik)

Game of Thrones (George R. R. Martin)

Voting ended onJan 25, 2023

For the purposes of this poll, “Harry Potter” does NOT COUNT as a valid answer. If it is the media that introduced dragons into your life, ignore it and please enter the next media with dragons that came into your life after HP.

IF you first heard of dragons somewhere else, please SPECIFY the name of that media IN THE NOTES. I was going to add an “Other (please specify in notes/tags)” but I have apparently run out of available answers. Also it seems I’m only able to run the poll for a week maximum, so that’s how long it’ll run. I hope to have fun with your answers :)

"You can't hoard princesses!" the knights shouted. "I don't," said the dragon. "Tima, for instance, is a farmer." "That's not what… You keep them locked in!" "The lock is on the inside." "What?" "They're not locked in. You're locked out." "They can't do that!" "I see why, now."

By popular request (okay, just @theorderofthetriad asked), I smugly present this abomination as its own post.

After shoving Hansel in the oven, the witch turns to Gretel - who is currently fending the witch off with a gingerbread chair - and says:

“I can’t believe you thought a trail of breadcrumbs would save you. I mean, honestly, this is a forest! It’s full of animals. Honestly, the very idea that a dumb shit like you thought you could get the better of me is absurd.”

Gretel hits her in the face with said chair. To be fair to the witch, she takes the chairshot like a champ.

“Ow!”

“Did you know,” says Gretel, “that crows are capable of facial recognition?”

“Eh?” Says the witch, clambering to her feet and pulling a candy cane sledgehammer off the wall. “What’s that got to do with anything?”

“Not only that,” Gretel continues, “but they can remember both friends and enemies. And they’ll often follow people they remember as friends.”

The two fence with their sugared weapons for a moment, before the witch knocks the chair out of Gretel’s hands.

“Enough with the bird facts! Honestly, this whole attempted escape has been utter clownshoes. Get in the fucking oven!”

She seizes Gretel by the collar. Gretel immediately sandbags, letting her whole body go limp. This eminently practical defense forces the witch to try and deadlift her. Which is hard, as the witch often skips leg day.

“For example,” Gretel says, as the witch struggles and grunts, “if you feed crows a lot of breadcrumbs, they’ll probably start to see you as a friend and follow you in the hope of more food.”

The witch stops. Outside, she hears the thunder of wings.

“They’ll even bring you shiny things they find as presents!” Says Gretel, as a corner of the gingerbread ceiling is suddenly cut away by a large crow with a knife in its mouth.

“Oh shitballs.” Says the witch, as the crows descend. “I hope you know this is a great unkindness.”

“Technically,” Says Gretel, “It’s a murder.”

This child who came to my house tonight is literally the funniest human being on the planet. She complimented me on having both lollipops and mini Three Musketeers available because "a lot of houses these days don't give you a fruit flavor option." She was very solemn about this.

I just thought I'd share my moodboard for the sort of vibes I'm going for in my NaNoWriMo project.

I'd love to know what other #wrimos are working on.

Welcome twitter users fleeing the absolute cesspool that twitter is going to become as Musk gets his way with his awful ideas! Things are better here, and hey, if you're an old user coming back, they've actually improved shit!

Here's a list of important notes for tumblr usage:

Don't censor words, particularly trigger warnings. Tumblr has a very functional blacklist (found in your settings) that can filter by post content and/or tags. But the word needs to actually be present for the filter to work. Censoring words like r*pe is actively harmful to people attempting to avoid those topics.

Use tags liberally, you have as many as you want, but don't tag unrelated shit. You'll get reported for spam really fast if you do.

Set an avatar and reblog things, otherwise you look like a bot.

You are not obligated to have your real name anywhere in your blog/bio/etc. Most people here use handles.

You can turn your ask box & anons on or off if you are experiencing any kind of harassment. You can also turn off replies on your posts, and turn off reblogs if you need to.

Tumblr has keyboard shortcuts on desktop. You can find them listed under the blog/account menu. Go learn them, they make life so much easier.

Reblog things. Seriously. Also set your dash in chronological order. You can maintain several blogs if need be, but reblogging things is normal, expected, and how you pass along stuff you enjoy.

The majority of people aren't reading your card/dni/blog bio before they reblog stuff. Posts get passed around and the OP often isn't the focal point of the post. Learn to live with it.

Fic writers: you have unlimited words, do not post fics as images.

Reblogs with comments/tags are encouraged. It's not like twitter's QRTs. The OP will see everything there. Know that before you comment.

You have a queue. This means you can set posts up ahead of time to run while you're busy. You can also completely ignore this and just spam your follows whenever you're online. Both are very commonplace

It's not weird to go through someone's blog and reblog old posts. That's actually very normal. If you add /chrono to the end of a tumblr page then you can view all the posts in chronological order to make this easier.

"Spam" liking and reblogging isn't a thing that is a problem. This is invented by people I do not understand. If someone claims this is a problem, they can learn how to turn off or manage their notifications.

The only form of promotional posts that tumblr has is "blaze". There is no ad targeting or any kind of invasions of privacy with blaze. You just get subjected to w/e someone wants to show you. If you want to give tumblr some money to help the company keep going and providing an alternative to twitter, it's not a bad way to do it. You can make people look at cat photos.

Also, we have fun colors here. Plus actual formatting ability. Use it!

People lie on here for fun. Don't accept everything you see at face value, check the reblogs/replies or google something if you're skeptical! Critical thinking is good!

Above all else, be chill, use your block button if you need to, and have fun.

I’m reblogging the original version of the OP without typos but wanted to add this from the notes:

Using readmores is also a great way to retain some control over your long post in case it goes viral, whether it’s because you’re prone to typos or you anticipate people might take issues with your wording or you want to be able to add stuff later or whatever. If someone reblogs your regular post it will stay on their blog in the form it was when they first reblogged it, without any of your changes to the original since then (and people who reblog it from them also get that version they reblogged etc.)… but if there’s a readmore, hitting it will always go to the version of that post on your blog, which reflects any more recent edits you’ve made. A godsend. I use it pretty much standard for “explainers” now.

I’m so excited to share our mushroom photos!

This has been a work in progress for a few months from when I started making the hats and getting things ready to do this shoot.

I made the hats out of left over material from my floral throne, fabric from my supply stash and trim from joanns fabric.

It was an absolute dream project to do and I love how these turned out.

I designed the inky cap with Stephanie in mind and Katie stepped in for the redcap because my original model was unavailable. We did there pumpkin head shoot the same day as the mushroom shoot, it was so fun!
