Hello entities, living and otherwise, of Tumblr, I'm Harlow, I'm 23, an ace spec pansexual trans gal, and the resident walking bag of scar tissue and sarcasm. I'm a cat mom,dog mom, mechanic by trade, and currently am dating the absolute love of my life, also known as @xx-rayne-or-shine-xx

I'm an avid reader and am active in more than a few fandoms, Percy Jackson, red dead redemption, how to train your dragon, some Disney media(frozen), and bluey (thanks babe) I'm a PC gamer, and metalhead who's blundering my way through grad school and life in general. Aside from that I've got nothing but I'm sure I'll update this later byeeee

You know what, the “shipping war” the Her wants us to have over Francy or Nedcy that most of us don’t actually care about is fun and all, but I kinda wish Callie and Iola were still Frank and Joe’s girlfriends.

For one simple reason, a love interest trio/support group.

Like maybe starting with VEN, when Ned was in Bayport, he meets the girls and they realize they have so much in common as the occasionally forgotten love-interests of famous amateur detectives and become friends. Imagine the things they would be saying to each other. I love it. Example:

Iola: Nancy left the country on your anniversary without telling you?!

Ned: Yep. Wait that’s never happened to either of you?

Callie: Well he didn’t leave the country, but I did…because I was kidnapped by an international smuggling ring.

Ned: Oof been there.

Iola: omg me too…three times actually.

Bonus: The “support group” was actually started by Laura Hardy, whose been with a detective the longest. She started it to help Callie and Iola navigate their relationships with her sons and then she meets Ned and immediately realizes she needed to take this giant, adorable baby bird under her tiny wing.

if you want butterflies, you need to live with caterpillars.

i am not being metaphorical, i work in a garden center, stop buying plants 'to bring in the bees and butterflies' and then immediately poisoning every caterpillar that dares to consume a single leaf

you will not get butterflies if you kill all the things that turn into butterflies! what are you doing!

As a poet, I also want my viewers to take this rather beautiful allegory into account.

[lovely-v]

I’m gonna propose “I guess you haven’t read the silmarillion then :/” as a default response to anyone not understanding a reference to something obscure. even if it’s not remotely Tolkien related. I want to build up a perception that perhaps the sum total of human knowledge is contained in the silmarillion

[lovely-v]

[10-4ward]

This is the polar opposite of this:

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

Replacing “none of these words are in the bible” with “none of these words are in the silmarillion”.

[harlowthetrashcanpan]

The bible? Is that like the parody of the Silmarillion I’ve read about? I heard it’s crap

Viktor texts V to tell her he left some stuff at her apartment..

That means Viktor has access to V's place.

That means someday, after working her poor ex corpo ass off, she comes home and finds Vik waiting for her with a hot meal.

"Just wanna make sure you get a decent meal, kid"

Today I learned that cuttlefish experience REM sleep, and that it makes their skin flash random colors. This is the cutest thing ever.

The electric eel at my aquarium has a voltmeter attached to his tank, and whenever he pumps out a burst of electricity–either when he’s navigating his tank or getting fed–the meter lights up and makes noise. Sometimes, I’ll walk past him when he’s snuggled up and totally motionless on his log, and see the voltmeter going crazy.

I am left to assume that he is dreaming, and is sleep-zapping at the things in his dreams.

[arachnospooky]

I am absolutely delighted to learn that electric eels dream of kicking ass.

I mean obviously I would fuck a monster but more than that I would bond emotionally with a monster over our shared sense of alienation and rejection from a hostile universe. together we would explore our deep-seated fear of being inherently unlovable, and reassure each other of our innate value as sentient beings deserving of love and kindness. i will hold them gently, and wipe the tears from their googly eyestalk-tentacles, and something will begin to heal

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

and then we fuck nasty, im not a saint

After growing up during the I Can Haz Cheeseburger era, I'm glad that we as a society have progressed to the point of understanding that cats' internal narration should be extremely dignified and comically formal for a creature so dumb. They really are like

Sir, I fail to see which part of this situation you could possibly find amusing. Can you not see that I am stuck, trapped onto this couch by my own claw, and shall consequently die?

When trans women are mocked and made into jokes in the media, I get very upset, and I am often told “Kay, you can’t go through life getting offended every time someone makes a joke.” And I sputter and object but they don’t hear me. So I want to be clear for once, about why the jokes make me angry.

I learned to hate myself for being transgender before I knew I was transgender. I laughed at the jokes in stand up comedy routines, and prime time sitcoms, and animated comedy shows, and in the movies, and in books, and in games, laughing at trans women for existing, about “men in dresses”, about people who “got their dicks chopped off”, and I learned to think that was worthy of ridicule.

And then a day came when I felt a pang of envy at what my female classmates were wearing and I repressed it, and felt guilty, and a day where I felt incomplete because I had no breasts and I repressed it and I felt disgusting And a day when I realized the only images of romance that made me feel anything showed two women together and I repressed it and I felt like a monster And a day when I realized I felt sick when I looked at myself in the mirror after every shower before work and couldn’t bear to look at my own face, and I hated myself. And then there came a day when I hated myself so much, and I thought I could never understand why, and so I just wanted it all to end. And it was just a miracle that I swerved my car back into my lane in time.

And all of it started with a joke that I heard on TV, and then kept hearing from all the voices from the ether, over and over and over, worming an idea into my mind before I was old enough to realize I was absorbing it, the idea that a man in a dress is funny, and that changing your body parts makes you a freak, and that women who have penises instead of vaginas are liars and hurt men. And they’re still making these jokes. And somewhere out there right now, just like all those years ago, there is a little girl in a t-shirt and cargo shorts with buzzed off hair watching the TV, hearing that joke and absorbing it without knowing it, who will someday have to pry herself apart to tear it out of her head, just like I did.

That is, if she doesn’t kill herself first.

I know this is a really heavy post but if you read it and you appreciated it, I’d appreciate it in return if you reblogged it. This is really important to me and I want people to read it and understand it. Thank you.
