the stevebucky dynamic of ’they could break everything in me except my love for you’ vs ’they fixed my every ailment but my love for you remained so it must be right and holy’ is. insane

’… what’re you doing, Steve?’

Silly art about Steve drawing Bucky like one of his French girls, now with 100 % more terribly animated gifs. (reference1, reference2)

🍨 Summer Reading Bingo Update 🌭

No bingo YET but here's what I've been reading!

Part of a series: I'm working my way through the Bloom!Verse series from @metalbvcky!

Multi chapter: Roaming - the latest from @fandomfluffandfuck (also part of a series actually)

Fic with art: - The 1918 Dairy series from @ledatheswann (omg I'm reading so many series wtf)

Space AU: Darling, Let's Take Our Time (While It's Still Ours To Take) by @voylitscope

Fairytale: Familiar Faces by @fsbc-librarian

All of these have been super fun reads (and all stucky) - and all are explicit so mind the tags of course!

So far these have all just happened naturally, but I'm going to have to start searching out some of the more niche squares and I'm excited to see what I will find!

Can't wait for people who hate The Vampire Lestat to maybe one day stop watching um, The Vampire Lestat, because while innocently scrolling the tag or browsing other socials, I've had to see multiple posts about how homophobic this season is and I'm like um. Do you mean the show where Lestat sings "I am a meteor / colliding / writing your name in dust as I fall" to a teary-eyed Louis while they stare into each other's eyes???? Or the show where Daniel shoves Armand against a wall and Armand starts talking about pseudo-stalking Daniel for most of his life??? Or the one where Lestat had sex in an elevator with a woman, a nonbinary person, and a man all at once?? Or the one where we see Nicki asking Lestat " are you going to teach me how to be a man, Lestat de Valois?" and then it cuts to them having sex in a candlelit flat? Ghost Claudia is searching desperately for her dead wife in some kind of purgatory??? That show?????

If anything, I've noted Lestat in his own POV, without Louis' own early shame about his sexuality muddling the view of himself and Lestat both, behaving in an even more queer way than before? His gender nonconformity, the way he speaks, his just general behavior. All of it is beating in the veins of the season. But whatever! People on the internet didn't get a sex scene exactly how they wanted it, or something, so that means it's not queer.

public decency laws are fake actually

I looked at it after a long time and had to fix it. That poor boy deserves it

[leveragehunters]

I was watching Starships, as you do, and had the thought that surely someone must have made a similar style fanvid for horses.

Many fruitless searches later, I found myself here.

[gendercensus]

The 2026 Gender Census is now open!

[ survey.gendercensus.com ]

The 13th annual international gender census, collecting information about the language we use to refer to ourselves and each other, is now open until 13th August 2026.

It’s short and easy, for most participants it takes 5 minutes or less.

After the survey is closed I’ll process the results and publish a spreadsheet of the data and a report summarising the main findings. Then anyone can use them for academic or business purposes, self-advocacy, tracking the popularity of language over time, and just feeling like we’re part of a huge and diverse community.

If you think you might have friends and followers who’d be interested, please do reblog this blog post, and share the survey URL by email or at AFK social groups or on other social networks. Every share is extremely helpful!

Survey URL: https://survey.gendercensus.com

The survey is open to anyone anywhere who speaks English and feels that the gender binary doesn’t fully describe their experience of themselves and their gender(s) or lack thereof.

Thank you so much!
