Let’s not overlook how it always seems to be black women targeted either.

[flightsofwonder]

being an adult is just saying to yourself “this is the weekend i’ll clean my [x]” and then proceeding to not do that because it’s the weekend and you deserve to relax, goddamnit

[flightsofwonder]

why does this have 85K notes

[randomslasher]

because we reblogged it instead of cleaning our [x]

Please recommend your fave angsty fics. I'm in the mood to suffer today :)

oh boy you’re in for a doozy! be warned tho, these are super angsty but also rlly beautiful so dw, they’re all worth the suffering imo

before i start, if you haven’t read them, read the clexa angst classics first b/c they’re biblical?? read, reread them, memorize them, live by them. this heart fossilized, you see the smile thats on my mouth, lover in low light , she 

clarke x lexa: 

- living on a fault line : clarke and lexa were married and now they’re divorced with a child, yup its the perfect angst because its so realistic too. the writing and pacing is almost poetic, wig gone!

- love on the ground : i feel like this fic is so under appreciated and should be up there with the well-known clexa classics because @hedaswolf writes the tension and chemistry between clexa so well. its in canon-universe, and the ending is still one of my favourites EVER in all of fic history

- pie in the sky : i’ve reread this fic so many times because the plotline is just so good. clarke is pregnant and in a loveless marriage and lexa is her doctor, the angst speaks for itself lbr

- look don’t touch (for this will destroy us) : whenever clarke looks in the mirror, she’s always seen the reflection of lexa. what does it mean? (her soulmate). and when she finally meets lexa, whew get ready for some good angst

other wlw:

- trust me : carol x therese, a psychiatrist/patient au, their relationship grows slowly and you will disappear into this fic seriously, its beautiful

- vacancy : carol x therese, they are former lovers and y’all know i love former lovers au’s!! learning their backstories and their pining for each other is just so painful (love that)

- the mountain high : chloe x nadine, they are back at it again on an adventure together but nadine being a tough soldier, wants to be able to control everything and yet she can’t. chloe gets injured and whew seeing nadine being so soft with chloe gets me everytime 

- aftermath : chloe x nadine, this is after uncharted: the lost legacy where nadine helps patch up chloe but its so angsty because nadine is trying to be tough and not give into her emotions 

if you want some more fic recs, check out my fic rec page, i only put my absolute favourite fics on there so be ready just fall in love with all of them

[commanderalexa]

i reread all of these classics every now and then because they’re so good. but lemme just add some root x shaw fics in this list because y’all are so talented and i’m in awe

- How Badly Did You Have To Break Her? : root x shaw, delves into the frustrating and painful process after shaw’s captivity and torture. its told so realistically and beautifully. the interaction between root and shaw is also portrayed exactly how i pictured. in my mind this is how i picture their journey together, no one dies ok bye

- sliding towards chaos : root x shaw, this was such a rollercoaster! its one of those fics where you just DISAPPEAR into and i just loved being immersed into this beautiful story. it focuses on root and shaw and reese, and gets their dynamic perfectly. the details that go into every chapter is mind-blowing and its just a masterpiece of a fic 

- caged animals : root x shaw, shaw has to hide in the subway to stay safe and theres angst and theres fluff (domestic shoot!!), what more could you want? i loved seeing the portrayal of shaw and how it eats away at her to just hide because her instinct is to protect. and i also loved reading how much shaw wanted to protect root who still has missions to go on. 

anyways i spend the best time at night being immersed with these fics, i am so thankful to writers for all they do for us. some of these fics have literally changed my life, they’re… literary masterpieces. anyways, theres so many more amazing fics in my fic rec page and happy crying reading y’all!!

Considering the declining retention rate I don’t feel like they have the room to lose 20 years of Catholics, pope should just right them a note to give to St. Peter saying they’re excused

[fun-n-fashion]

 what about the people who were baptised by him and then died in the intervening 20 years? do their families just have to accept that their loved one is going to hell because some dude fucked up the paperwork?

[rainbow-femme]

[dusky-phantom]

The funniest outcome I have seen from this whole issue is a handful of priests have come forward also stating they used “We”

THEN a whole different priest saw his own baptism video and saw his OWN baptism was done wrong as well so he isn’t technically baptized....which to be a priest you have to be baptized, so he isn’t even a real priest any more!

[irelyre]

this is a whole fucking thing going back to the age of thomas aquinas and there's been more than one war fought at least a bit about it. quad mus sumit, et cetera

[argumate]

certainly the most important thing Jesus said is that you have to use the exact words when you perform ritual actions or they don't work and you go to hell

[horrorlesbians]

everytime I remember that lesbian couple that have a marble statue of the two of them embracing and sleeping on a bed together over where their graves will be because the artists didn’t believe they would be able to be married before they died, so what they couldn’t have in life they could have in death, I fucking breakdown

memorial to a marriage; patricia cronin

[horrorlesbians]

“on july 24th, 2011- the first day that same sex marriage was legal in new york state, particia cronin and deborah kass got married. that same year the marble ‘memorial to a marriage’ was replaced with a bronze version. rainwater pools in the space between their two sculpted bodies, and falling leaves catch on the metal in the autumn. the two women sleep peacefully through snow and ice, and the scorching days of summer. over time the hands of cemetery visitors will wear down the bronze, burnishing it into a smooth shine. one day this will mark the final resting place of the two women. and someday people will have to remember that there was a time, long ago, when this was a memorial to a marriage that two women never thought they’d have.”

REBLOG TO SAVE YOUR QUEER HEART FROM BREAKING

[omgkalyppso]

I’ve seen a bunch of people in the notes concerned (like I was) of comparisons of members of the lgbt to dogs: but upon visiting their website I was reassured that they monitor a variety of content, including (but not limited to):

[curface]

THIS IS A GOOD SITE

[jenniferrpovey]

Yeah, this site is literally so people can check for content they don’t want to see…or in some cases content that would make them physically or mentally ill. (I have strobe issues myself…)

It’s highly useful for a lot of people.

[gingersnapwolves]

I had no idea they warned for strobe effects, that’s awesome! They give me headaches and nausea.

[femmenietzsche]

Those loony Christian signs listing all the types of sinners who will go to Hell (ABORTIONISTS SATANISTS GAMBLERS FORNICATORS) always make me feel bad because I know I’d fall under a lot more categories if I just got out more. It’s introvert shaming, that’s what it is.

[joshpeck]

how many posts do you think get made on here in a day.....5? maybe 6?

[fourtccn]

oh i don’t like this

[joshpeck]

[trgeafgmjuyfiomu-deactivated202]

200 million blogs and 80 million posts per day yet somehow all the gays follow each other and reblog the exact same posts consecutively.

[gotterhag]

Ok say tumblr has been up since 2011, 365 days a year times 10 years is 3,650 days. Times 80 million each day is 292,000,000,000 (two-hundred and ninety two billion).

Jeff Bezos is worth around $186 billion, for reference.

[imposterogers]

just bc it could work doesn’t mean it should have to. when disney bought fox, they knew what they were getting. deadpool is a franchise with two r rated predecessors and disney trying to keep their family friendly image while owning it is a big example of “maybe you shouldn’t have bought it”. not to mention the fact that we already would have had deadpool 3 bc 21st century (as a smaller movie house) considered it a priority. for disney, it’s just another notch on the bed post

[imposterogers]

ok while I’m here (and by no circumstance am I saying xmcu deadpool was perfect nor was 21st century) BUT

-deadpool flirted with men and women on screen

-negasonic teenage warhead (main character in both films) was a canon lesbian with a girlfriend

-a maori teen was cast as a villain that was white in the comics then given a redemption arc/mentioned the emotional trauma of the foster system

-deadpool shot a p*dophile

-josh brolin had a lil crush on ryan reynolds and I know in my heart 100% would have kissed him on camera

-domino was a superhero with vitiligo

if disney won’t even honor the precedent set by TWO r rated films prior to #3 well.........I don’t think that’s a good sign

[still-waiting-for-cap3]

If it helps, Ryan Reynolds is just as pissed as we are and the pg-13 Disney approved version probably would have been filmed by now if it weren't for him raising absolute hell and refusing to cooperate.

Keep on delaying the movie, king. We'll wait.

[imposterogers]

if disney doesn’t allow deadpool 3 to be rated r, ryan reynolds should drop out and start a new independent project called “not alive pool”. idk it seems like what not alive pool would want rather than be suffocated by the corporate mouse

[polyachkaaaa]

me: I’m very good at letting things go

me in 2020: LEXA DESERVED BETTER

[toastbutteregg]

[princesscas]

You know the whole reason why I haven’t left Tumblr after all these years is because this site is so introvert friendly.

I don’t have the attention span or much less the strength to keep up with Discord conventions (bc apparently fandom is more in Discord these days?? I am not a talkative person to even take part in a group chat *shivers*) or follow with whatever’s going down on Twitter.

I can come on here, make a post into the void and reblog a bunch of posts then ramble in the tags. It’s great. You don’t have to be a person here, you can be a faceless blog and have a grand old time.

fanfic recommendation for someone who never read a fanfic?

Hi! Ok that’s a cool challenge. Please keep in mind that I’m leaving a lot of great fics out, some because it’s humanly impossible to remember everything and others because I refuse to make a list the size of the bible. Anyway, I hope you like my suggestions ^-^
