in a way i owe everything to crystals of past human thought & feeling, to this or that book or artwork, to the time which an artist sacrifices from their present to give something to the future. i don’t think anything else was going to overcome the circumstances of my surroundings & make me at least start to become real. i feel an eternal debt to crystallization, the need to at least try to pay it forward. i am shackled to the practice, i am dying of love & gratitude

growth is supposed to make you into a flowing river, aligned with life & not into a crystal, which is still & aligned with death. but somehow i feel that i owe my life to something dead, & so i cannot fully embrace the life it has given me but must work in service of dead & still things myself. these words that will sit here unmoving. in this circumstance, how do you acquire the willpower turn your back on what is unmoving & preserved? if writing this was good in any way then i don’t ever want to stop

The razorbill, razor-billed auk, or lesser auk (Alca torda) is a North Atlantic colonial seabird and the only extant member of the genus Alca of the family Alcidae, the auks. It is the closest living relative of the extinct great auk (Pinguinus impennis).

friendly reminder that findtags is the best way to search tumblr’s absolutely destroyed tag system. it actually accurately looks through the tags without omitting results. it’s the only thing i use at this point because it’s the only thing that works

magical girl transformation but theres no pretty lights or sparkles just grotesque and blood curling body mutation layered by the sounds of joints cracking bones snapping and muscles twisting unnaturally and she looks like a normal magical girl at the end

This is so fucking funny

[trickstertime]

For non Irish speakers when translated it says “make a movie about black people they said” but in Irish putting a colour modifier when talking about a person/group of people it has a cultural meaning, some colours even have different words when talking about hair colour (like red). So in that vein, the word black (‘dubh’ pronounced ‘duv’) is associated with the devil and/or evil things and naturally it’s quite rude to describe someone as black in Irish so we call black people ’gorm’ (pronounced gurrum) which is actually blue. Frequently people claiming Irish heritage mess this up, most notably and hilariously is that cop who tried to make a ‘blue lives matter’ t-shirt and messed up every word single word in the translation except for the ‘blue’ modifier which made his stupid t-shirt actually say ‘black lives matter’.

All that to say that it translates as “make a movie about black people, they said” but directly translated it says “make a movie about blue people, they said”.

Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk

Give me more jokes requiring deep cultural knowledge!

[trickstertime]

OK, so in Irish there’s an old saying “Níl aon tinteán mar do thinteán féin” (it sort of sounds like: ‘kneel ain tin-tawn mar duh tin-tawn fain’). It translates as “there’s no fireplace like your own fireplace”, as in ‘there’s no place like home’.

However the word for fireplace, thinteán (tin-tawn), is very similar in pronunciation to the words tinn tón (teen tone) and they sometimes get swapped out for comedic value or to low key make fun of someone complaining.

See, tinn tón means sore butt.

Which changes it from ’there’s no fireplace like your own fireplace’, a nice, relatable phrase that old people would smile at and agree with you about, to ‘there’s no sore arse like your own sore arse’, which, when deployed correctly, can be either a solemn commiseration with how it’s difficult for people to understand the deeper levels of the pain a person is feeling (you would have said it to the person who’s suffering in a sort of ‘here’s a silly joke to make you smile but also show I understand how little I understand of your pain. Plus we’re Irish and find it hard to show emotion without slagging so I’m pretending to make fun of you complaining but, really, we both know that the fact that I’m doing it in this way shows I care a lot), OR a jab at someone who’s going on and on complaining about some minor shit and you say it quietly to someone beside you who’s also been listening to this gobshite prattering on in the hopes that you can make them burst out laughing.

Some of the best fiction and journalism both are pornography with a decent balance of non-sexual content.

The same lurid spirit prevails through everything else instead of clean guarded euphemism.

seriously tho the most frustrating thing about the last few days is everyone acting like what happened to predstrogen was unique. trans women get nuked all the time.

my fiancée got nuked this morning. she hasnt made any death threats against the ceo. she hasnt posted pictures, much less sexually explicit ones. but there wont be a massive outpouring of support for her.

to most people, her blog being nuked will go entirely unnoticed by the wider site, just like the last two times it happened to her, just like the last 4 times it happened to me, just like its happened to many of my mutuals.

i need y'all to reckon with the fact that we are constantly disappearing. if predstrogen was the first time you noticed it, that's a problem you need to fix.

and predstrogen was lucky. she had people who noticed and cared and stood up for her, and from the sound of her last post thats been going around, getting off tumblr will be a good thing for her health

most of us arent that lucky. we're not popular, we dont have people who will stand up for us, and we dont have community anywhere else to turn to if this site becomes untenable.

think about that. sit with that. reckon with that. feel something

[sapphling]

talking to a queer person you just met and slowly beginning to realize they're a category 10 normie is honestly horror movie material you're just saying your funny words seeing the recognition-as-human slowly drain from their eyes feeling the violins in the score swell as it dawns on you that this person has never even interacted with an armpit in a sexual context

0 fucking sense of irony for someone to put this tag on this post. The call is coming from inside the house dude…
