GUYS, Flip was nominated for a Harvey Award! 🎉😭

I'll be honest...was a little disheartened when this graphic novel was passed over for an Eisner nomination. But this completely makes up for that! It's such an honor to have this book nominated and included with other fabulous YA books! 🙏

I’m so mad that a t4 bacteriophage actually looks like that and that it’s appearance isn’t made up

[cikero]

this is how they look in all the models

this is how they actually look

like they really fucking look like that. in real life

[somniiloquy]

viruses are literally such bullshit they have the nerve to look like this and they aren’t even ALIVE

[nuggettiana]

I REFUSE TO ACCEPT THE SHITTY AND ARBITRARY DEFINITION OF LIFE THAT MAKES VIRUSES NOT ALIVE. FUCK YOU THEY ARE ALIVE

[petzah394-deactivated20250503]

Things are heating up in the virus fandom

Belinda, Anne Rice (as Anne Rampling)

[kvotheunkvothe]

all right, I know Anne Rice has a reputation as a litigious bitch. but this is fucking iconic

[patrochilles-or-bust]

Shout out to all the Black ppl that can no longer participate directly in the fandom they love because of the stresses of racism 👍🏾 you contain multitudes of value and I'm sorry that the color of your skin and the power of your voice makes people not want to acknowledge that.

[patrochilles-or-bust]

Yes, nonblack people can reblog. I'd appreciate it, in fact, if y'all took the time to vocally support your Black friends/fans in fandom.

and just think, our stupid ancestors gave up the fun of swinging through trees and opposable feet and tasty fruits for free to be able to walk upright and get bad backs and invent fucking monarchies and capitalism

Very similar vibes - this 1899 illustration from Puck of butchy (for the time) lesbians looking like the coolest, hottest women to ever walk the earth

i’m pretty sure james ortiz said rocky was just cussing grace out the entire time in that scene so i think i’m valid for this actually

I find it very telling that Tamsyn Muir, who came up through this hellsite, wrote books where the evil emperor starts out as a basically okay leftist millennial tumblr user.

What makes the villain the villain (inasmuch as it's useful to examine TLT characters through that kind of simplistic lens) is that when the chips are down and he has to choose, his priority is punishing the wicked, not saving the people left behind.

I would invite anyone whose engagement with their cause consists of finding the 'correct' group of people to hate, to consider whether 'evil emperor' is the next career move you see yourself taking, and if it isn't, to gently suggest disembarking from the hate train.

Because no one wants their God King to be a tumblrina called John.

Unfortunately for everyone who would like the world to be simple, it's not. People are messy and complicated and they create things that are messy and complicated. You can't destroy evil. Not really. Not with a sword, or a gun, or cleansing fire. Building a better world means building, means creating, empowering, standing for something instead of against it.

You're willing to fight for your cause. So many people are. Are you willing to labor for it? We don't need more soldiers. We need artists. Engineers. Orators. People with dreams.

Gender abolitionists only ever seem to want to abolish trans women’s gender. What’s up with that?

[goatgirlgocks]

Gender abolitionists convince themselves that they're above gender and are unbiased.

This is because they're completely unaware of their own subconscious bias and cis society doesn't punish this

When presented with a trans woman they are confronted with the fact that all their biases are in fact still being applied on conscious and unconscious levels

They attempt to reassert their self proclaimed neutrality by degendering and dismissing her feminity as "upholding the gender binary"

Deeply unserious, openly transmisogynistic losers

tubi is one of our greatest warriors in the fight against streaming services costing a fortune for mediocre content. tubi has the most insane collection of movies you will ever encounter all for free. it has cult classics and questionable lifetime movies and movies that nobody except like three people on the planet have ever seen. tubi has movies that doesn’t exist. like if you just thought of a movie one day but never made it and no one ever made it it would somehow still exist on tubi. one day i will log onto tubitv dot com and i will see terribly inappropriate, overly complex, and strange on there. and i won’t even be surprised.

Tubi is where I found this gem:
