“Haha remember when murder-hornets were gonna be a thing? What a nothingburger.”

Yes, because the Washington state government activated like a sleeper-cell and ruthlessly, systematically hunted them down and annihilated them.

“Y2K came to nothing amirite?”

Yes because an army of software engineers working around the clock, losing sleep, and busting ass till the last minute prevented it from happening.

“Remember the hole in the ozone layer?”

You mean the one that was fixed through rigorous world wide government action?

One of the root problems of our society is a refusal or inability by media to articulate that all those “it’s gonna be an apocalypse” disasters were not disasters because we collectively did something about them.

The good news is this is actually quite correctable. I maintain my firm belief that we as humans are capable of solving almost all of our problems, when we decide to do so.

And I still think that’s going to happen. I don’t know when or how, but I do know that abandoning hope won’t help bring it about.

And I refuse to let the cynics own a chunk of my heart.

Happy Smallpox Eradication Day

[pyronado-moved]

Please stop trigger tagging with #epilepsy tw/cw/warning/etc.

I need every single person to understand how horrible tumblr’s tagging system is

I go into the tag for epilepsy and its all flashing lights. We can’t use our own tag because people without epilepsy fill it up with improper warnings.

Use ‘flashing’ in place of ‘epilepsy’ in your tags. You aren’t warning people of epileptics, you’re warning us of flashing lights. Please please tag properly. Epileptics say this endlessly and constantly and it’s ignored. You are risking lives by doing this.

Here’s proof of what I mean:

THIS POST IS 100% OKAY TO REBLOG, I ENCOURAGE PEOPLE WITHOUT EPILEPSY TO ESPECIALLY DO SO!

[demonicsymphony]

And if you’re in the notes or tags telling us to “just get a new tag”

Fuck You

[too-many-hyperfixations]

Alright everyone we have to flood tumblr’s feedback again

For the unaware: tumblr is implementing “age verification” for the UK and Brazil, partnered with the same company that just had a massive data breach of faces and IDs, and otherwise locking even long standing blogs to hiding “mature content”.

Tumblr’s TOS doesn’t even allow the porn these laws are meant to affect, with the mature content filter being EXTREMELY faulty, and mostly targeting marginalized groups.

It’s a blatant attempt to smother the blogs of trans women and POC, and a data grab!

[ifbrd]

Recently, I’ve been talking a lot about an Animaniacs fanfic I’m working on. I’m making progress! But I’m still wanting to ignite hyper fixation mode and make…A LOT of progress lol.

Lately I’ve been working on chapter that is extremely important, but I’m finding it the hardest to write. I wrote this scene the other day, and realized that despite being from a very spoiler heavy chapter, this scene is completely spoiler free!

So since I still haven’t activated hyperfocus on this yet, I’m posting the (rough draft so it’s garbage right now) scene under the cut and see if people expressing interest motivates me lol.

For context: the summary will be something like “The Warners siblings have always drove their psychiatrist, Dr. Scratchansniff, crazy, so you can only imagine his dread when they show up to his door one day asking for a place to stay” and this scene is probably nearly in the dead center of the story

Anyway enjoy!

Otto was in the kitchen, going through old food storage containers. It had been something he'd been needing to do for a while, he had so many that he never used and needed to give away to someone who would make use of them. As he sprawled his containers on the counter tops, carefully sorting them into piles, Yakko and Wakko were seated at his kitchen table. Yakko was reading, and Wakko...had snagged all Otto's spices and was--

"Whatcha doing, Wakko?" Yakko asked, peering over his book.

"I'm making a taco seasoning recipe!" Wakko proudly announced, "I'm going to combine the perfect combination of spices into this disposable spice container we just emptied--gotta be good to the planet, right?--and then when we make tacos, all we have to do is add a bit of this to get perfectly seasoned tacos!"

Otto and Yakko both smiled, and each went back to what they were doing. Otto was enjoying having them in the kitchen with him, just simply hanging out. It was quaint and peaceful (not something he ever thought he'd say about these kids), and the only thing missing was Dot also sitting in the kitchen, doing whatever she wanted to do.

Otto then found himself wondering if he should be worried that he hadn't heard a peep from Dot in quite a while, and wondered what sort of trouble she could be getting into. As if she could hear his thoughts, she came strolling in, looking a bit bored and like she wanted something to do.

"What's everyone doing in here?" She asked.

"Making taco seasoning!"

"Reading."

"Just sorting through some old food storage containers I never use anymore."

Dot looked displeased with all their answers, clearly not wanting to engage in any of their activities. Otto was surprised when she didn't start complaining that there was nothing to do and insisting they all drop what they were doing and find something fun for everyone to do. Instead, she started looking over Otto's sorted piles of food storage containers.

"What are these?" Dot asked.

"That's the donate pile, I never use those containers anymore." Otto replied.

"No, what are these specifically? Why are they so small?" Dot asked. Otto turned his head to see that she was holding some of his smallest containers.

"Those are meant for things like bringing a bit of salad dressing to dress a salad you might have packed for lunch," Otto said.

"What are you dressing the salad for?" Yakko said with a smirk and without taking his eyes off his book, "does the salad have a wedding to go to?"

Otto smiled and shook his head, "they are also good for packing things like Tylenol when you go on trips. But again, I haven't used any of those for either of those purposes in years, so I'm going to donate them."

Dot examined the small cylindrical container for a moment, and then asked, "can I have them?"

Everyone briefly stopped what they were doing and looked at her, perplexed.

"...Why?" Otto asked.

"I can turn them into a little play tea set!" Dot answered. She was so entertained by the idea that she was bouncing on her toes. It made Otto smile, and made it impossible for him to say no, not that he even had a reason to say no in the first place.

"Sure, in fact, you can take whatever you want from the donate pile," Otto said.

Dot squealed and grabbed all of the smallest containers, and then examined a few others to see if they would work for what she wanted.

"Oh! I think I have something else you could use," Otto said, and started rifling through his cupboards. "Aha! here it is! I haven't used this in years either, I have a better one that I always use instead."

He handed her an old cheap gravy boat that he had picked up in a garage sale decades ago. She happily took it.

"This will make a perfect tea pot!" Dot exclaimed.

And with that, she took all the supplies for her new play tea set and sprawled them across the table and sat between her brothers, who each welcomed her to the table with smiles.

Now all four of them were doing their own activities and enjoying each others' company in the kitchen, and Otto couldn't help but smile.

Jimmy Neutron / Planet Sheen Theory

Recently I've been running into some posts and videos on other platforms about Jimmy Neutron, and got hit with a ton of nostalgia, and that slowly lead me to recalling a theory I had when Planet Sheen was airing (for what little I watched of it) I know no one liked Planet Sheen, but hear me out. Also I didn't care for Planet Sheen either, so I didn't watch every episode, and it's been years since I watched either show, so if there is something that debunks this theory, let me know. (And this theory really isn't meant to be taken too seriously, bordering on a crack theory lol). I also haven't exactly ever been an active member of the Jimmy Neutron fandom, so I don't know if this theory already exists. Sorry if it does! Basically the theory is that Jimmy actually meant for Sheen to be blasted off to another planet. This has been a theory I've had since Planet Sheen first aired. As I recall, the premise as to how Sheen ended up on whatever the planet was, was that for some reason, he was in Jimmy's lab, alone, and came across a series of notes left by Jimmy saying "Sheen, do not do X," "Sheen, do not do, Y," "Sheen, do not do, Z." And the second I saw it, it felt like reverse psychology to me (though I didn't know that was the terminology yet).

Jimmy is smart, supposedly, and he's been friends with Sheen for years as far as I'm aware, and Sheen is extremely impulsive. Surely, Jimmy would have known that planting notes like that would have made Sheen do them. I feel like "Do not do ..." is already pretty enticing for Sheen to do the thing anyway, but it's made so much worse by having the notes specifically addressed to Sheen IMO. Wouldn't it have been smarter to leave notes like "Sheen, there's cookies upstairs," or "Sheen, Ultra Lord is outside!" if you really didn't want him going near all those specific items? Also the fact that the notes lead in succession to him taking off is suspicious.

The rest of this are things I'm only thinking of now, looking back.

How is it that the rocket landed on a planet? I genuinely don't remember, but it seems like the odds of it landing on a planet, and not roaming space until it runs out of fuel, are slim. With that in mind, it's possible that the coordinates for the rocket were already set, which isn't out of character for Jimmy, but if that's the case, that should have meant he already had the coordinates to Sheen and theoretically, could have rescued Sheen almost immediately. And why was there a new separate rocket at all? Jimmy already had a rocket, so if this was a planet he was wanting to visit himself, why not just take his own rocket?

Lastly, why in the world was Sheen in Jimmy's lab alone in the first place?? I recall there being an episode of Jimmy Neutron where Carl and Sheen were already in his lab despite him not letting them in, and when questioned, they simply said "a bag of your hair." Jimmy decided not to question this further, but you'd think he would have beefed up security after such an event.

Now in all fairness, I don't know why Jimmy would have purposefully lead Sheen into the rocket using reverse psychology. I'm honestly not too concerned about the reason, (but I'd love to hear theories if anyone has any lol) all I know is for Jimmy Neutron to leave notes like that, is either very suspicious at worst, or at best, extremely careless (though I acknowledge this wouldn't be the first time he was careless with his inventions.)

There's my crack theory. Hope you enjoyed! Did anyone else think the notes were reverse psychology? That was literally my first thought watching that scene.

So a few weeks ago I was working on an analysis, and I was trying to find a specific post by @lizbreenwrites and instead stumbled on this post (sorry I can't show a screenshot, tumblr isn't letting me insert screenshots in posts right now for some reason) and I can't get it out of my head.

It's an ask, but I want to focus specifically on the answer

WordGirl remembers Lexicon! I mean, the whole show would be over if she decided to fix her spaceship and fly home (in one of the Season 7 episodes, you’ll see how easy that actually would be to do), and that was her original plan when she crashed on Earth, but she bonded with the Botsfords and prefers living with a set of normal parents than with Lexiconian superhero parents.

Like...can we talk about this??? Because this seems sssuuuuuuppppper weird to me. A very small child, can't even really walk yet, ends up on another planet and is like "I'd rather be here!"

Any normal child at that age would have been crying her eyes out and just wanting to go home to her own parents, it never would have mattered how lovely the Botsfords were or how much she might have preferred the lifestyle they were living. A child that age would want to go home. She'd want the familiarity and structure she'd been growing up with.

So like...why was she just perfectly okay with living on earth and never ever seeing the the only family she'd ever known ever again??? Did her Lexicon parents suck???

This post is an ask bout Becky's relationship with Lexicon, and honestly, the answer raises more questions than answers for me...

[ifbrd]

Okay sssooooooo curious people’s thoughts on this because I have a feeling others’ answers will differ greatly from my own

Which Warner sibling is the most emotionally intelligent and which one is the least emotionally intelligent?

[ifbrd]

I just typed a long reblog for this post, responding to everyone, but the layout I had typed up hinged on the fact that I would be able to insert screenshots, but now that I’m trying to insert those screenshots of everyone’s responses, tumblr is saying “sorry, we don’t support this media yet!”

Excuse me???? Yes…yes you do????

[leebrontide]

Hey.

Low key tip from a therapist here for my likely-adhd pals. Like shh pretend you didn’t hear this from me but:

If you are trying to get assessed for ADHD as an adult and the assessor wants you to get your parents to fill out forms but your parents also have ADHD but insist they’re “normal” and you know they’re gonna fuck up your assessment by insisting you never did anything ADHD because thats just their “normal” or because they just think you’re lazy or whatever, then you just tell that assessor “Im not in contact with my parents”. Those are the magic words. Swap it out for “family” if you also mean your siblings or whatever. I don’t care if you were at moms house last Saturday, do not allow this very stupid standard fuck your over.

I hate this standard. We KNOW that ADHD is the most heritable trait after height. But we assume everyone getting assessed has a prev generation member who is totally objective about this? When we know how stigmatized these symptoms have been and continue to be??? Why????

It is authentically helpful to have someone who knew you as a kid, but look around for someone else if you need to,

But you didn’t hear that from me.

If anyone is curious about my progress on my Animaniacs fanfic, my current motivation status is that I’m more interested in the aftermath of the story than the story itself 🤣🤣

[ifbrd]

(had to put this here because it would've been to long)

looking deeper than what the writers intended (and before the muddled everything) there's a link between them, its clear the Warner's do genuinely care about scratchy- considering that he is the first adult (in a very long time) to give them any sort of passing glance.

he (most of the time) is cordial and rather patient with them- a part of me would like to believe he understands that at the end of the day- these are JUST children- but he is not professionally equipped- so he takes care of them in a more parental view.

i think this would have carried over in the reboot (if the writers were compentant) because there are moments with scratchy- (in the very limited scenes he has) where that parental spark does peek through.

but I like viewing scratchy as a reluctant father figure or step dad who- over time does become attached to these weird lil puppy looking kids

but that's just me- I dont- exactly know if this answers your question but- I hope this helps in a way.

I loved reading this!

I asked for the purpose of inspiring myself to write (actually just more thoroughly plan) a very important chapter of a fanfic I'm writing. Unfortunately, for reasons I can't quite figure out, this didn't really help with that.

However it does make me feel like you, friend, will love the fanfic I'm writing, so there's that 🤣

What is your favorite thing about the relationship between Scratchy and the Warners?

Question for WordGirl fans Does Mrs. McCallister know about Tobey's crush on Wordgirl?

[ifbrd]

Status update my progress with my Animaniacs fic. Basically just writing whatever scene I feel motivated to write at the time, right now, I'm just trying to get a first draft done, however I can do it. From there, I think it will get easier to make progress after a first draft is done.

So, I've taken some time to arrange the scenes I have, and some scenes I know I definitely need to write but haven't yet. And something I thought would help me see where I'm at is to make sure each chapter has what I want the first and last scenes to be. I'm just kinda fascinated about where I'm at with each chapter right now lol, so I thought I'd share. Here's the current status of each chapter. Completely Spoiler Free. Like I mean completely, I'm only talking about the status of scenes, not the content in them.

There's like 5 or 6 scenes here, and I honestly don't think that's even close to what I actually need. I have the first scene done but the last scene I don't

Pretty much the same status as above, except this one I have the last scene done but not the first scene. I've purposefully been avoiding the first two chapters because they're backstory chapters (and probably gonna be longest chapters 😬) and I'm currently planning on writing them last unless I get a random bit of motivation

There's like ten scene here, most are done, including the first scene, but not the last one. I say this chapter is pretty close to done

About nine scenes currently, All but the last scene and one more are done, however, it feels a bit choppy, so it might need a few more scenes or maybe to be rewritten for better flow?

Six scenes currently, first scene is done, last scene is not, and it certainly needs more scenes because this is not enough writing to get to know the characters in this chapter and overall it just feels like it's lacking and too short.

Nine scenes currently, first scene is done, last one is not, along with a few others, I feel like I need at least one more scene in here to make it less choppy?

I have nothing written here. I have an idea for the last scene, and another scene that's so vague in what needs to happen that it's kinda useless. Oh, by the way, this is kinda the most important chapter. Everything the story leads to hinges on what happens in this chapter 😅

Four scenes currently, all written, most definitely NOT enough, and I don't even know what I want my first scene to be

Four scenes, all written, no dedicated first or last scenes, and just like the last one, it needs a lot more

Again, four scenes, in need of a lot more, and of what I have, only two are written. However, at least I have the dedicated first and last scenes determined. Worth noting that if chapter 7 is the most important chapter, then 8-10 are all tied for the next most important. So basically the top 4 most important chapters have some of the least amount of writing done! Yay....

9 scene planned, 4 are written including the first scene, 5 aren't written including the last scene and one other that really only isn't written because I can't decide which Warner kid I want to do what needs to be done in the scene, or if I want hem all to do it together (or have them all do it separately, not knowing what the others are doing haha). It MIGHT need one more scene thrown in there, but I don't know for sure

3 scene currently, all written, a dedicated final scene but no dedicated first scene. This chapter should mostly be a bunch of fluff and right now it's wimpy and sad.

Spoke too soon, this one currently only has 2 scenes, both written, and only the dedicated first scene, no dedicated last scene. Needless to say, more is needed here. The previous chapter is supposed to be mostly fluff, and this one will be pretty much all angst...

7 scenes currently, all written, dedicated last scene, no dedicated first scene, I think it just needs 1-2 scenes at the beginning to build up to happens later

5 scenes planned, currently all that's written is the first and last scenes. Needs a couple more. I don't know how to end things so I think this one will give me some grief lol

Next thing I might try is deciding what each chapter's most important scene is and see if that bulks things up a bit, whether though adding in a missing scene, or having that cause me to think of scenes that are needed in order to build up to that most important scene

[ifbrd]

Was just looking through some notes I made and realized I have completely forgotten about a little side arc in this story so maybe that will help me...or maybe it will hurt me here because I have no idea where to put any of it! 😅
