"I will sacrifice everything to save you!"

basic. boring.

"I will not sacrifice everything we have worked for to save you because you told me not to risk everything and I respect you enough to follow your wishes even if it will break me"

tasty. compelling.

I have never and I will never be normal about them a single day in my life

HEADS UP!!

There have been blogs which are stealing other people's art in the Bloodymary fandom - the links underneath them will link to porn or sketchy sites - currently the two I keep seeing are;

KAMIRAJAH

BILLUBALA

!!DO NOT CLICK DO NOT ENGAGE!!

I'll add more if I see them, but these are the two that keep cropping up at the moment.

It's all about the textures lads

The RoL fandom enjoys showing off actors that (subjectively) fit the characters really well. I am not an exception! :D its fun!

That said, I'm very out of touch with pop culture and therefore only have one actor-character combo I feel passionate about!

Gary Cooper as Nightingale! My mental image of Nightingale is just Gary Cooper in his 20s - 40s. They're similar heights (tall) and almost born the same year lol. Very cool. Haunted stare. Capacity for nasty bitch faces and bewilderment.

*waves hand around vaguely

(Apologies for the janky arrangement of pictures. I'm on my phone 😔)

[peaceful-loon]

Yess I have said this before and I am so glad that someone else sees the ~vision!!!

Look at this man and tell me that is not wartime Nightingale!

Absolutely thrilled to find this post and can only commend OP on their excellent taste.

"going out to get milk" is a common turn of phrase used to describe a man abandoning his family.

the "milkman" is a common figure in stories depicting a woman's infidelity and adulterous affair.

this implies that the ability to provide milk would both decrease the likelihood of a man abandoning his wife and children, as it would eliminate the need for leaving to get milk AND would secure that man's marriage, as his wife would have no need to seek milk from an extraneous source.

therefore, all men should produce milk, through various means such as:

- being a cow

- being an almond

- being a woman

- being a coconut

- being in the omegaverse

- being an oat

(list is exemplary and not finite)

in this essay, i will redefine the nuclear family and explain the seductive and inflammatory nature of the 1993 "Got Milk?" commercials.

Reblogs in a chain now get their own notes

The reblog chain is one of the things that makes Tumblr unlike anywhere else. All the notes on reblogs are attributed to the original post, no matter which branch people actually liked or reblogged. We want to keep encouraging conversations, and give contributors the recognition they deserve. 

Soon, you'll be able to like, reblog, or reply to any part of a reblog chain, and that note will go to that reblog's author. Each reblog will have its own counts, instead of one aggregated number from every version of the post. And yes, you’ll be able to like multiple posts in one chain.

If a reblog doesn't add anything, the love flows up to the last person in the chain who did. Your post doesn't lose notes just because people spread it quietly.

Past notes will stay on the original post — we're only changing what happens from here on out. Retroactively re-attributing all of them would be... a lot.

This is just the beginning. More changes are coming as we keep building this out – stay tuned!

[tumblr]

Let's talk about reblog notes.

We rolled out a significant change to how notes work on reblogs, and the reaction has been strong. We're not going to pretend otherwise. 

First things first: We're reversing the change. Your feedback in comments, emails, and especially reblogs, made clear that the rollout created problems we need to address before moving forward. We also should have communicated this differently from the start, and we didn't.

We still believe there's a better version of how reblogs can work. One that gives every voice in a chain the credit it deserves. But we want to get there with you.

In the coming days we'll share more on how we plan to do that,  including ways to work directly with some of you on this and future changes before they ship.

Keep an eye on @staff for updates to come soon.

Glad they dialled it back but lol. Lmao even.

Why is every piece of Obi-Wan media like.... The most tragic thing I've ever read???

infinite sadness indeed

We must celebrate

[waitafrikk]

forever cursed to enjoy books with small fandoms where the only fandom is the actual author

[peaceful-loon]

I got the first book free on audible and I'm loving it, so went on Tumblr to have a look and you're the only person apart from the author posting - a tragedy 😭

Still, the fandom has reached the dizzying heights of TWO people now lmao

I love you, detective chief inspector Thomas "Tiger Tank" Nightingale

[peaceful-loon]

This is so pretty!! Also OP if you are in love by book 2 TELL US WHEN YOU GET TO BOOK FOUR

Because no spoilers but hooooooo boiiiii (you'll know what I mean when you get there)

[peaceful-loon]

Look. The world is terrible and all the news is generally depressing but this Reddit drama has fuelled me.

For the last month, a guy has been coming into r/kitchenconfidential and has been posting photos of the chives he's cut in a bid to show he can cut a perfect bunch of chives.

He has been criticised, but his perseverance and determination to improve has endeared him to the subreddit to such an extent that his posts got enough traction to escape the chef-y/foodie subreddits and hit r/all.

People have posted their cat (called chives), been concerned when the guy was late posting - regular commenters have got their own status from being able to spot the problem chives.

There was palpable disappointment when there were NO CHIVES IN TOWN and so the guy had to miss a day.

Chiveguy got a flair under his username of "chivelord".

It's day 31 and someone posts to say that the chive posts are being faked. This gets deleted by the mods. A second post goes up - this time it stays up.

Mods post overlaying photos of chives to try to prove/disprove the theory.

It seems more and more likely, the betrayal is palpable. Someone posts the whole saga into subreddit drama.

People begin suggesting the guy is in fact a "chivefraud" (there have been a lot of chive based puns).

A few hours after this, the guy has come forward and admitted that the last photo was a fake. His car broke down and he did not have time that day to cut chives because he had to sort out shit in his real life - but the pressure of the level of engagement he'd been getting had fucked with his head and he felt he had to post so he used an old photo.

The reaction from people is overwhelming - currently the apology post has got circa 26k upvotes in 2 hours. People are saying they're not angry - they're disappointed.

He's saying he'll do whatever reasonable punishment Reddit decides and never lie again.

Public consensus so far appears to be that he is forgiven and that people are glad to have been there to witness Chivegate - although not confirmed yet it's likely that this man's punishment will be to cut the chives on camera.

Shit like this is why I continue to stick with Reddit despite it's myriad of issues.

So I was in the Kaladin tag, having just started The Stormlight Archives and obviously am now deep in my love for this sad man, and then at some point I must have clicked out and this gif came up... And I'll be honest I thought I was still in the tag lmao.

"I love Denth! He's up there with Kelsier as one of my favorite characters from Cosmere!" I say as I get to the chapter with the basement.

[peaceful-loon]

Literally. I audibly gasped when I got to the basement and I realised he wasn't fucking joking any of those times he made the mercenary """jokes""".
