Hi, welcome to my blog :)

This is thoughts, books and fandoms I like. Idk it’s pretty random at this point but it used to be aesthetic if that counts for anything?

I love like every book I’ve ever read, musicals, a bunch of other fandoms that I’m too tired to write out right now, and watching queer tv shows instead of doing homework :)

Be kind, drink water, and remember that you’re loved <3

Currently Reading: The Handmaids Tale by Margaret Atwood and We Hunt The Flame by Hafsah Faizal

I think it’s very fun and beautiful that there are nontraditional fic formats that certain fandoms can do and do well, and whole genres of fic that are popular in one fandom that you may never see in another

[unwastelandunbaby]

fics that read like court documents or academic papers or journal entries or published antique love letters with footnotes by historians…25k+ of plot told through only photoshopped text and email screenshots, news headlines, and tweets… it can be so fun to find that conditions specific to certain characters or worlds lead perfectly to unique formats mmmm good shit

the best part about having a job is being able to go through doors other people aren’t allowed to use the worst part is everything else

I’m telling this story again b/c fuck it but anyways I was playing D&D and one of my friends went “brown bear brown bear what do you see” and on cue three of us turn to him and like, death metal screech “ALLLL”.

The dude goes completely pale faced. I saw true horror in his eyes. 

He didn’t know the joke.

So apparently dude just had three of his best friends demonically screech at him for no goddamn reason.

I do not think I will ever cause that level of sheer terror and confusion ever again in my life.

I watched the live action version of "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" on Youtube and I was not ready for the utter lack of emotions from the CGI animals.

Nala looking concerned about Simba hiding something about his past, a comparison:

Also, in CGI this song called "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" does not take place at night.

DONT BE AFRAID TO COMMENT ON OLD FICS DONT BE AFRAID TO COMMENT ON FICS IN A FANDOM THE AUTHOR MAY NO LONGER BE ACTIVE IN. IF THE STORY IS STILL UP LET THEM KNOW YOUR THOUGHTS IT MIGHT JUST BE THE REMINDER THAT MAKES THEIR DAY.

SINCERELY SOMEONE WHO JUST GOT A REPLY THAT MADE ME WANNA MAKE THIS POST

Stories don't have expiration dates! AO3 is an Archive specifically so you can still read old stuff!!!

[moniquill]

I am baffled to learn that there were people who thought that they shouldn't comment on old fics, honestly. We're still commenting on Gilgamesh and Ea Nasir, Sappho and Homer, Tolkien and Lewis. Why wouldn't we have things to say about a five year old fic???

[teaboot]

Went to the Aboriginal artifact exhibit in Chicago. And it’s interesting. How many blankets and masks and totem poles say ‘unknown source’, because every five seconds my mom would stop and point to something and say. “Pauline’s grandmother made that,” or, “That belongs to Mike’s family, I should call him” because. It’s all stolen

[teaboot]

“These artifacts were excavated by archaeologists from a burial site in the 1970’s. The remains were returned for reinterment” Okay cool, cool cool. So you just, like. Dug up the grave of a respected family member, stripped them naked, mailed their body back to their family and kept everything they were lovingly put to rest in. Like a graverobbing bastard

[toothmuncher3000]

Reminds me of the time when of the elders from my hometown started touching a totem pole in the Museum of Anthropology out at UBC and got yelled at by the staff, only to tell him that the pole had been stolen off of the front of her bighouse when she was ten years old.

Museum collectors did the equivalent of kidnapping a family member when they were away fishing.

The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act requires all institutions that receive federal funding to repatriate remains and artifacts so if you can identify the source of something on display absolutely get a hold of that institute’s repatriation office
