Hi! My blog is basically a phan account, with some other poetry sprinkled in. I hope you enjoy!

[galaxyflame300]

I mean I really like your header rn

But I prefer to change mine every few months or when I feel like it just because when I change my header I change my entire aesthetic/layout

So I would say every few months but really it’s whichever you prefer

ooh good idea, I think I might do that! 

[galaxyflame300]

i think ur header rn is really cute and matches ur theme nicely! <3

aww thx! I love this one to! 

[galaxyflame300]

A question

ok, so I had a nice cute fox photo as my header image when I 1st joined tumblr. About a day ago I decided to finally change it to another pic and I am now questioning doing it again. My question for the people following me/who see this post: should I keep it the same for another month or two, or should I change it to something new every week or so? I can't decide, and so I'm asking the people of the internet.

Things You May Need to Hear

"it'll be okay" and "you can do it" are phrases that sometimes fall flat. here's some things you may need to hear:

you're good enough

sometimes it's okay to not try so hard

it's okay to not always be strong

you don't have to be anything for anybody

don't be so hard on yourself

you're worth it

it doesn't make you weak to ask for help

let yourself cry

[galaxyflame300]

Everyone needs to hear this!

[galaxyflame300]

A super sappy poem, I'm so sorry

You are the half to my whole,

the keeper of my soul

You are the key to my heart,

the glue that keeps me from falling apart

You are the yang to my yin,

the one who makes my heart spin

You are my best friend and possibly lover,

the one who is by my side more than a brother

You are the reason i’m still alive,

the one who grows with me and now we thrive

You complete me, you care,

you even let me cut your hair

I love you, I really do,

I just hope you know, and love me to

~if dan wrote a poem about phil, this would be it~

Normally I don’t like bringing this up, but: Tumblr is making it increasingly difficult for writers and artists to get their posts to show up in tags and searches, meaning that our fics and art are being exposed to fewer people. 

Yes, it’s still possible to get posts to show up, but in the case of the search function, it’s only if they have no links - not even links to other Tumblr posts. For people like me who include links to other chapters in my fic so readers can get caught up on chapters they might miss, this is a huge problem. I basically have no choice but to include those links, or else I would make things massively inconvenient for my readers.

So why am I telling everyone this? Because this means reblogs are becoming more and more important to creators. With posts so difficult to find in searches and tags, reblogs are one of the few other ways for people to find new artists or writers.

You’re under no obligation to reblog my stuff, of course, but I want to put it out there why reblogs are so important to those of us who write/draw/create content.

(Also: While I’ve personally verified the stuff that’s going on with searches, I have no clue what’s going on with tags. Some of my stuff is showing up there, some isn’t, seemingly with little correlation to the links included. So tags might not be quite as strict, but they do seem to be less consistent.)

Tips That Can Save Your Kid’s Life.

[hiddlesherethereeverywhere]

THIS IS IMPORTANT 

When I was a child, from the time I was about four and could understand things, my mom told me and my brother that we should have a secret word. That way, if we were ever in trouble or felt unsafe and we didn’t want the people around us to know we needed her to come get us, we could let her know. So she let us pick the word and my brother and I chose the phrase “peanut butter cups.” (I’m happy to share the phrase now since both my brother and I are adults now). 

I used the phrase twice in my life. Once, I was at a friends house when I eight years old. Her dad got really drunk and was throwing things against the wall. I was really scared and I didn’t want to draw attention to myself on the phone when I called my mom to come get me because I didn’t know if he would get more violent if I asked her to come get me. So I called her and was calm and after a couple minutes I asked “Hey mommy, did you get me those peanut butter cups from the store?” And she said “I’ll be right there.” And she came and got me within minutes. 

Second, I was a teenager spending the night at a friends house. Her brother and dad were drinking and they started talking about things that made me uncomfortable - ie: what they liked to do to women. My friend didn’t seem perturbed and said that was normal for them and that I shouldn’t worry. But I was worried because they were really drunk and I was 15 and the only ‘woman’ around that wasn’t related to them. I went in my friends room, told her I needed to call my mom and say goodnight. Before I hung up with her I asked “Next time we go to the store, can we get some peanut butters cups? I’ve been craving them.” And she came and got me, just like that. 

Two incidents, one as a young child, one years later as a teen. Don’t discredit this stuff, it fucking works. My brother used it a few times too. Let your child pick the word and no never, ever, ever, ever get mad at them for using it no matter what it is.

DO NOT SCROLL PAST THAT.

[honeybeehusky-blog]

Off topic, but very important! I was taught to yell “this is not my mom/dad.” A young kid freaking out in public is likely to be ignored out of embarrassment, but a kid telling you right out that they don’t know who is messing with them? That will turn heads.

[tkthegoddess]

Reblog this.💯🗣💋

[theoneandonlyredrobin]

Important!

[nastygirlsneedbreeding]

On a very serious note

[galaxyflame300]

rebloging now.

[constellatedlove]

small bits of positivity can brighten your day even just a little. looking in the mirror and encouraging yourself, especially if you’re feeling insecure. finding shapes in the clouds that day or picking your favourite meal to eat. calling a friend who makes you happy or watching a show that comforts you. finding a part of the day that made you smile, even if most of the day was crap. it can help to find small, bright things admist the chaos <3

[galaxyflame300]

this is so so true, and I think everyone in the world needs to hear this. also thx dan and phil for being one of the things that make me happy, I love looking forward to Tuesdays and Thursday as well as the overall happy/scared feeling that at anytime, you could drop video's.

Strictly Come Dancing but make it GAY | Phan Dance AU

Summary: @danielhowell: maybe i’d actually consider doing @bbcstrictly if they allowed same-sex couples. who wouldn’t want a sexy man spinning you around? it’s not just a girl’s dream. c'mon people let’s see some pretty and fierce girls pair up and handsome and strong boys get it on. i dare you.

Dan Howell calls Strictly out on Twitter for not allowing any same-sex couples and accidentally volunteers himself to be one of the contestants if they were to change that. It was a joke. It had so clearly been a joke. Why did they take him up on it?! He’s sure he’ll trip over his own feet and hate every second, but then he meets his partner, the endearingly clumsy dancer Phil Lester.

OMG this is an amazing fic, I spent all of yesterday and this morning reading it, highly highly suggested 

[galaxyflame300]

Sorry

Sorry I can’t make proper sentences each and every time. It's just, as an artist, I'm used to the rhyme. Or at least to the rhythm and following a line, Oh no! I’ve made another poem, haven't I?

[galaxyflame300]

Progress

Progress is slow But that’s ok Just get in the flow And soon one day Progress will show And be here to stay

Six weeks of stereo!

   Six weeks of stereo!    Inventing new ways to make us cringe (e)Xamples include: lions, llamas, and a very long fringe

    We got some interesting content, I laughed quite a lot     Eventually you should make dan wear some polka dots     Every show is a little different, every time the titles new     Keep doing the alliterations, because we love them to     Shower us in joy, and the world will thank you
