Hi I’m Moss! This is my little Birdcage introduction!

Birdcage is the result of an idea I had that the lovely Hotel pod community fed into- What if the Lobby Boy, Manager, and Owner left the Hotel? What if it centers on the Owner’s pov as he struggles to come to terms with his past and potential future?

Birdcage is mainly centered on the Owner, but it switches POV occasionally. There are 12 chapters total (including the epilogue), over 100k words, and around a year of work.

I really couldn’t have done it without the community’s kind words, Birdcage fanart, and even Birdcage fanfics!! You guys rock! And of course, thank you to the creators of the Hotel podcast for being so supportive of this project. You didn’t have to shout it out, nevertheless TWICE, but you did!! And it meant the world.

If you like fantasy and horror, topics of healing and trauma, I hope you enjoy Birdcage.

people on here make ocs and they're mostly men and they ship characters and they're always men and they have favourite characters and they're always men but sometimes they say the men are like women not trans ones though because that would be guh-ross and harsh the vibe of the #fandomspace and they write fanfiction about men and talk about how complicated and #deeplywritten their male favs are and they'll watch movies and tv shows with mostly male casts in every way that matters and not question it because well what do you want them to do about it and they don't even care that that's what they're doing to them it's pure coincidence they always like the male characters better it's pure chance that women are only interesting as yaoi cheerleaders and actually when they write female characters as yaoi cheerleaders they're doing them a favour because they were just so poorly written in the source material it's the charitable thing to do men men men men men men men and if you say anything about it well you're being a killjoy you're being no fun you're being homophobic you're being a misandrist god what is it about women right what is it about women always trying to ruin our fun? why do they care so much? they're just women. who wants to think about women at all.

I should be doing more to appreciate the lack of marvel movies in today's popular culture. I once yearned for marvel movies to have this level of irrelevance. They used to feel almost ozymandian, like an empire that had no beginning and no end. and now tony stark iron man is naught but two vast and trunkless legs of stone.

These should have been joyful Eid days, but my little siblings are terrified.

Please leave a small Eid gift for them… maybe your kindness will help us survive.

shirt that says I HATE WHEN CHARACTERS WITH UNUSUAL BEHAVIOURS AND MANNERISMS DUE TO NEUROLOGICAL DIFFERENCES GET "CURED" AND BECOME "NORMAL" on the front and "bye" on the back

[crabussy]

the ONLY time I'm fine with this is when the character is STILL unusual after whatever event changed them, just in a different way. bonus points if they're upset about the change. EVEN THEN YOU (pointing my fingers around at no one) ARE ON THHHIIINNNNN ICE

[crabussy]

"but why do you hate this? isn't it a good end to a character's arc?" my actual physical neurological structure deviates from the norm in ways that CANNOT be "fixed" and I like it when characters are like me and can still have fulfilling story arcs and loving friends [:

[crabussy]

this includes characters who say things that don't make sense, have memory issues, behave irrationally, and more. I'm talking about characters who represent a wide range of neurological differences. not just autism or adhd!

Fin. She could knock—or at LEAST try to remember the key is under the mat.

[thehotelpod]

It feels self indulgent to repost this comic Moss did based on our conversations but we both agree if i'm posting it because I like HIS work and he's posting it because he likes MY work then it cancels out.

[manxmoss]

Yeah that’s how it works!

i support universal free healthcare for one simple reason: if you are diagnosed with a terminal illness you should quit your job. quitting your job is the correct response to terminal illness. but you can’t do that if your healthcare is tied to your job

[hollowboobtheory]

listen if somebody knows that they will be dead in a years time, and you are forcing them to continue to come into work, that’s fucked up. terminally ill people should be able to quit their jobs and live their last few months to the fullest. i don’t get how that’s a controversial opinion

This is not just serious illness.

It’s any illness.

No one should be forced to work if they have the flu, or even a cold.

Hi. It's me, Trustfund Whitelady, here to tell you all about my queer-owned small business oddities shop. Check out our multiple products on offer such as: quartz bought in bulk from Amazon, $5 vinyl stickers of animals in cowboy hats, king cake plastic baby earrings, and up in our display case, a taxidermied bat we for sure don't have a permit for. Our brick and mortar store has no available parking or public restroom but it DOES smell so strongly of incense that you'll need to hose yourself down after exiting :) If you can't make it out to the shop, no worries! We'll be at the craft market next Saturday between the amigurumi mushrooms stall and the 3d printed fidget slugs stall

i love kind men. gentle men who let themselves cry at sad movies. men who entirely lack nonchalance. men with big beautiful eyes that always betray whatever emotion they feel. men who are sweet to small animals and bugs. men who hold your hand when they’re scared. men who sing off key to their favourite songs when they think no one’s listening.
