late night cashiers at 24-hour convenience stores are the holders of our greatest secrets and most intimate selves

[insomniac-arrest]

not my mom, not my partner, not God himself has seen me no-make up in line to buy a choco-pop and panty liners while on the brink of a heart felt meltdown

no one has given me the empty stare of complete indifference that fills my anxious nerves with relief

there is nothing like the sweet freedom of complete nihilism experienced at a 7/11 at 2am, God lives in church, the randomness of the unfeeling universe lives at aisle 9 of CVS

did y’all ever see the comic someone made of this?

It was cool

[professional-poser]

vibes holy shit

I think that I would absolutely prefer to have Hannibal as my therapist than to have Gregory House as my physician. Hannibal is a respected psychiatrist who would be a great listening ear for your troubles. He's probably only eaten about five patients. Meanwhile, every visit to see Dr. House involves him roasting you unprovoked, vanishing for a few hours, then returning to tell you that you have a rare Danish Blood Explosion Disease and that it's your idiot fault for getting it. And you can't even be mad at him, because he's actively curing your Danish Blood Explosion Disease. Why is he like this.

probably gonna get shot on site for this but oh well

it is okay if you don't know literally every single detail about canon. It's okay!!! Its okay if you haven't seen every movie. It's okay if you never read the books. Its okay if you haven't seen every episode. Its okay if you haven't read every comic. Its okay if most of the stuff you know came from reading fanfic. Its okay if you have literally never touched the source material. Its okay if all you do is interact with tumblr posts or fanart. Its okay if you decide to make up your own version of events even if they contradict canon completely.

Fandom spaces do not exist to be policed. Fandom spaces do not exist to be gatekept. If you don't know each and every detail then its okay because fanspaces exist for you to fill in the cracks with whatever it is you like. You can literally headcanon whatever, no one can stop you. you have my permission to go crazy

Thematically speaking, the most important thing Terry Pratchett taught me was the concept of militant decency. The idea that you can look at the world and its flaws and its injustices and its cruelties and get deeply, intensely angry, and that you can turn that into energy for doing the right thing and making the world a better place. He taught me that the anger itself is not the part I should be fighting. Nobody in my life ever said that before.

[moddeydhoo]

More lessons from Pratchett:

Good isn’t always nice (i.e. sometimes appearing nice is a luxury you can’t afford if you want to do the right thing) (this refers to setting bones and fighting evil, not to being pointlessly horrible)

Evil can appear very nice indeed (watch out for people who smile while they deny your basic humanity)

People can suck, be rude and actively work against their own best interests, but personkind is still something we must protect so they can keep being wonderful in between all the stupid

“Person” is always a broader category than you think

It’s not about who’s best for the job - it’s about who shows up and does it

Be very aware of how you treat those in your power; you will be judged on it

Respect women, which explicitly includes trans women (with or without beards and steel-toed boots)

Kings: no. Hard-boiled eggs: yes

this will never not make me laugh

What's the trope name for when someone finds out they're the Chosen One(tm) and is like "No, thank you" and goes and does something else

[dreamswhistlesandstories]

[neosilverthorn]

Refusal Of The Call is the actual trope name.  Usually followed by the tropes of The Call Knows Where You Live and You Can’t Fight Fate.

[silver-flame-alchemist]

The Call is Trying to Contact you about your Destiny's Extended Warranty.

Geez, that was fast. If anybody wants their tracking #, lemme know.…if you didn’t get to order one, here’s a preview:

And some angsty non-canon stuff:

Attempt #23 appears fruitless.

Nah, I’m just kidding none of that junk’s in there. I mean, it’s close, but not actually that.

I won’t be making more for the year because I gotta draw the comic, brahskis.

Who was your bisexual awakening and why was it Ardeth Bay from the hit films The Mummy (1999) and The Mummy Returns (2001)

[natalieironside]

literally illegal and a crime against me personally (which is the worst kind of crime) for a man to be that perfect

[bixbythemartian]

no sorry

it was Evelyn Carnahan (later, O’Connell) from the hit films The Mummy (1999) and The Mummy Returns (2001)

Ardeth Bay provided some very helpful contributions, however, it must be said.

[sablefroggy]

May I offer Brendan Fraser from the hit films The Mummy (1999) and The Mummy Returns (2001)?

I had a crush on allllll 3 of them ngl. I watched at a later date than most being smol at the time of release but it stands

i'm reading a fic where this is briefly touched on but I really am obsessed with the idea of Jack taking up photography as a means of shifting his role from observed to observer. i'm too tired to Go Off rn but I'll elaborate later

[omgcpausandstuff]

I have a lot of favorite things about Jack Zimmermann, and this is one of them.

The canonical fact that Vimes doesn’t play chess because the only thing he can think about is that the pawns really should unionize and overthrow their useless king is one of my favorite tidbits in a series full of great little details

[captain-lovelace-deactivated202]

“Resources for writing realistic injuries” no. I want to beat my characters to shit and I don’t care where the blood they’re coughing up is coming from. Like in anime.

[reallycoolsoup]

All the punches give the character tuberculosis

[jackalopunny-deactivated2025100]

reblog and put in the tags what you call each of these

[vethbrenatto]

But… what if I need you?

[katzirrart]

Blows kisses to you all, happy Valentine’s Day, enjoy a polished piece I liked enough to keep on!

I’ve been relearning my digital methods lately, and doing some super self indulgent work, and this is the one I kept with to relearn everything, as well as some new methods!
