Mean lesbians 💋

The highlight medley brainworms finally got me

[homunculus-argument]

If I was tall I'd dress in white instead of black, wearing gold instead of silver. Rinse and condition my hair with something that makes the shade slightly blonder, in a natural way, instead of dyeing it stark jet black. Instead of moths, moons and stars, I'd wear jewelry with gold pendants of wings, feathers, swords, and eyes. Absurd amounts of eyes. A white leather jacket with a ring of gold and ink-blue eyes embroidered in a circle on my back. Wearing a perfume of ozone, petrichor and metal notes, a scent of a fresh storm, iron and blood, but in a way that's unsettlingly clean.

An unnerving impression of a biblical angel. A force of good that might not think you are good, a messenger of a god that does not love you. A presence so overwhelming, massive and imposing that you're surprised that a person like that can fit inside a room, and can use normal-sized furniture like regular people do.

But that would require me to be more than 5'6"

Everything I Say (skz hyunlix fic)

Fandom: Stray Kids Rating: Explicit Ship: Hyunjin/Felix Tags: Canon Compliant, PWP, Loud Sex, Prompt Fic

Summary: Hyunjin and Felix just can’t keep it down.

I.N has told them—mostly because Chan, who usually handles these things, can’t look either of them in the eye while thinking about it without wanting to die, let alone get the actual words out of his mouth, and I.N drew the unlucky straw—and they apologized and said sorry, Iyen-ah, and Felix even looked a little bashful because this is their baby, and the baby is scolding them about having loud sex—

But the fact remains that they really, truly, honest to god just can’t keep it the fuck down.

Taking the Long Way Home

SKZ FIC TIME 📢

Fandom: Stray Kids Rating: Explicit Ship: Felix/Hyunjin, Felix/Chan, Felix/Everyone Tags: Omegaverse, Alpha Lee Felix, Alpha Hwang Hyunjin, OT8 vibes, scent kink Chapter 1/3

Summary: Felix can always tell when his rut is creeping up on him.

The way his members smell most of the time—it feels like pack. It feels like home. All of their scents blending together to create a perfect symphony that shouldn’t work together but somehow does, from Chan’s sweet ocean scent to the sweet pungency of I.N’s narcissus flowers.

It’s just that when his pre-rut starts, everyone starts to smell wrong.

Felix wants them, is the thing. Not even in a sexual way. He doesn’t know how to explain it, he just needs them down to his bones. He needs them all the time, rut or not, cycles or not. It’s just that he’s aware of them in a way that he usually isn’t.

The things you create don’t have to make sense! They can be messy and wild! They can be confusing and strange! They can be ugly and weird! Stop tethering your sense of creativity to what other people will accept. You deserve to create without inhibition.

Ah yea forgot to upload these! Or I don’t think I put any up at least? Some of them are a bit blurry but I’m not really bothered.

Visited the fox/wildlife sanctuary in early April for my uni project, I mentioned it in my blog and I did take lots of photos! They had some birds in as well but I got tons of fox photos hahah SO PRETTY and also awesome references!! 

I’m still so excited that I got to see a fox this close! 

The reason this fox was wearing a collar is because he’s been blind since he was born so he’s staying as a “pet” since he can’t be released in the wild. Had to be very calm and quiet near him but he seemed to get used to me quite soon and let me closer.

The first photo is quite funny, he was resting like a cat haha! My personal favourite is the second one on the second to last row :D such a sweet face! Can’t really tell he’s blind.

Also feel free to use these as refs if you’d like but do not use them as stock photos please!

does tumblr know about tim misny??? like has the level of tim misny awareness that exists in northeast ohio broken containment and become known online yet???

[rydenxo]

ok so tim misny is a personal injury lawyer here in ohio.

that’s him. you do not have to remember his face from this image because you’re gonna see it a lot in this post. so mainly i think we all kinda honed in on tim misny because of his slogan

he’s gonna make them pay. he’s gonna get you that money but also it’s a little threatening like he’s gonna fully fuck his legal opponent’s shit up. this sprung tons of local memes. then there were the billboards which were normal at first.

but here’s the thing; we already know what misny does. he makes them pay. so it turns into just saying “you know what i do” which is funny enough if you don’t at all have the context.

but this is not where the absurdity caps out, my friends. no. this is what it has evolved to and they. are. everywhere.

that’s right. no text. just the judging eyes of tim misny, glaring through our skin and into our souls. there is no god. there is no devil. there is just tim misny and he’s gonna make them pay.

[chaotic-plotter]

this is very unscientific, but i'm seeing something so often on book reviews that in, well, selfish interest, i'm curious what's going on.

more and more often i'm seeing complaints that books "started off slow," even in books that, in my eyes as a writer/editor-ish person, actually move extremely fast. so, i really want to know what people mean by "slow."

please share widely! i want to get a decent sample and hear from lots of different folks if i can.

to me, a book/story "starting off slow" means

there's not a significant action scene within the first 10 pages/first chapter

events are happening quickly, but there is no significant action scene/s

the big inciting incident doesn't happen in the first 2 or 3 chapters

too many talking scenes, not enough action-forward scenes

not getting enough answers to plot questions in the first 1/4 to 1/2 of the book

the first 1/3 to 1/2 focuses more on character moments than strictly plot ones

something else, put in the tags

Voting ended onAug 5, 2023

feel free to leave any other thoughts in the tags or comments or whatever, because i want to know what people think.

(an explainer in case folks don't know: the "inciting incident" is the event that send the main character into the main events of the story i.e. nick meeting gatsby in The Great Gatsby (happens a decent amount of the way into the book) or katniss volunteering for the hunger games in The Hunger Games (a popular example, but interesting in that it happens pretty early in the book). funny thing, the inciting incident generally isn't the first thing to happen in a story but lots of people think it is, and i'll be interested to see if the outcomes of this poll reflect that or not.)
