Next up someone is going to claim that the Narnia series isn't kids books.

Kids books is probably not the best way to word it, you can enjoy them at every age, including your childhood, as you get older you may find new truths in them, but they're still good for any age.

I want you to understand this. I NEED you to understand this. My mother read me the hobbit as bedtime story, and I started pushing myself to read before pre-school so I could in fact read the hobbit for myself instead of having to wait for bedtime.

I didn't do so right away but jesus wept I PUSHED myself to learn to read SPECIFICALLY so I could read The Hobbit! It is, in fact, a children's story! And children only see page count as 'there is a lot of this fun story to read!'

[penandinkprincess]

reading your "hit or miss" fic and those boys would LOVE game pigeon

i also LOVED that fic so much.. do u think vivienne Knows about them.. like surely there's one family member going i know what you are shane hollander and ilya rozanov

i think vivienne has suspicions that there's a crush in there somewhere, but i don't think she KNOWS.

i've also seen multiple people say yuna and david HAVE to know, but like. ilya has A Reputation with the ladies. i think mainly they're just glad shane has such a good friend, and if yeah, it seems a little closer than two guys might be otherwise, well *shrug* ilya is european and shane is probably just following his lead lol.

[graham-cracker-guillotine]

could be a funny concept: shane's chronically online younger cousin (naming her elle in my mind) is a hollanov warrior. has been since shane and ilya got drafted together. i think maybe she's a distant cousin, distant enough that she's like an every-other-year-we-visit cousin. and she keeps that shit LOCKED DOWN she's up on tumblr and twitter as shanes #1 fan. she never mentions that she's related to him nor does she ever express any interest in hockey other than "i mean my cousin plays" (<- no mention of who the cousin is). elle might be the #1 most vindicated person whenever hollanov is revealed. she and luca haas are tumblr mutuals

[penandinkprincess]

the idea of elle meeting luca at a bbq (maybe she stopped by to see aunt yuna and uncle david and cousin shane because she goes to a summer camp soon but then there's a bbq and she's a hockey fan so gets to tag along, and she meets luca and just gets The Tumblr Vibe and SO quietly at one point just goes, "i like your shoelaces" and sees luca's whole body take a screenshot and is just

[graham-cracker-guillotine]

THIS IS SO FUNNY

^ elle probably figured out which mutual luca was as soon as she was in the car on the way home (ive seen the user luca-rozanov thrown around which is so unsubtle and so funny) but luca doesn't figure out elle is hane-shollander until years after they met

i think shane catches on that luca and elle know each other (has no idea how considering the different continents) however, whenever the two of them interact, he sees this extremely distraught expression that luca is desperately trying to hide and thinks his cousin is doing her normal of "hockey? i don't think i've ever heard of that sport. can you explain it to me?" bit but instead it is SO MUCH worse for luca

[penandinkprincess]

GOD shane who knows his little cousin likes heckling grown ass men and has since she could barely fucking see over the wall who just assumes she's doing the same to luca, so he takes luca aside and is just, "listen, you can't let her get to you, okay? she's just having fun. she does the same to me all the time."

and now luca is internally having a crisis because he thinks this is shane saying he is somewhere on tumblr, too, and now he is about to have a panic attack thinking about if Shane Fucking Hollander has seen his in-depth hollanov analysis posts in person.

elle (who is. a demon) one day after a game is making introductions to a friend she brought along and goes, "and this is luca rozanov, no, oops, i mean haas. :) my mistake. :) right, luca? :)"

and luca is just

[graham-cracker-guillotine]

IM SOBBING

maybe harris finds out that shane's beloved cousin is in town and is like. hey shane do you think your cousin would like to come to practice and help me with media (maybe he heard from troy about shane's menace of a younger cousin and thinks that she would be a fantastic person to bring to the media team)

shane's like yeah why not? i'll see if she's free

and oh boy is elle free, she's so excited. she's coming up with new questions that these hockey boys had never heard of before. like why do you look sometimes like a trout when you're warming up? or how many times do you think you can skate around the rink at full speed before you throw up?

harris is having a fantastic time. shane is equally having a fantastic time because he knows his cousin is so excited. luca is trembling in fear because he has been avoiding her since she got to the rink. he knows she's going to get his ass. he's very unsubly skating away from her every time she gets even a teeny bit close to him. she knows what he's doing. he knows that she knows what he's doing. nobody else knows why luca, one of the nicest rookies, looks terrified of shane's cousin

[penandinkprincess]

the idea of the lowkey cat and mouse dynamic happening on this ice between giant, built luca haas and this petite 16 year old girl is KILLING ME.

it's ahead of family night, so she gets to do interviews as kind of a bit of involving family at every step of the way, and she's not on camera (both because minor (they do get a sign off from her mom) and also she's just not interested in that. she'd rather be an anonymous plight to hockey players everywhere), but for ANYONE paying attention it is VERY clear that she is very slowly chasing luca around the rink as luca looks increasingly sweaty. she is coming for him, and they BOTH know it. luca straight up contemplates just puking on the ice so he can CALL IT and LEAVE.

he loses track of her for like a minute and just hears "you avoid miette?" from behind him and feels his soul briefly leave his body.

[penandinkprincess]

no one who watches the video knows elle's name because the only time she's addressed is by ilya, who calls her Small Hollander (which is affectionately changed to Smallander by fans). the video also gets traffic because it's among the most relaxed interviews shane's ever given. he's still On because he's in his uniform and aware this is going online, but he's smiling slightly because it's his little cousin "interviewing" him, which means it's mostly just chirping back and forth. "what's your ideal breakfast, shane?" "a protein smoothie" *loud buzzer noise* "boring answer. try again." "that IS the answer." "well make up a better one. we're trying to make a television program here." "this isn't for television. this is going on instagram, i think." "okay well just for that, you're getting the villain edit in this one. it's going to make rupaul's editing look tame." "i don't even know who that is." "GOD you're so bad at being gay." "i'm telling your mom you said that." "okay and then i'll tell ilya you said you wouldn't love him if he was a worm?? en garde, dude."

from across the rink: "SMALL HOLLANDER. ENOUGH OF THIS GUY. HE WILL KILL EVERYONE WITH BOREDOM. COME ASK ME MORE QUESTIONS."

[penandinkprincess]

elle, having finally cornered luca (literally cornered him, she has him backed against a wall): so, luca, i hear you're quite an artist. any subjects you're especially a fan of? i'm sure the world of hockey offers a lot of inspiration for dynamic poses.

luca, who doesn't know how she knows about his fanart but knows she Knows: n-no, not really.

elle, who is in a pink puffy coat and has a bow in her hair and is a good foot shorter than him and yet is scarier than any hockey player he's ever faced on the ice: oh? 🙂 i would have thought there's plenty of inspiration. i mean you're on the same team as the world's most famous players. they even have their own couple name, don't they? 🙂 what was it again? hollanov or something? am i saying that right? 🙂

luca, about to die of heart attack at 19:

"Do you ever dream of land?" The whale asks the tuna.

"No." Says the tuna, "Do you?"

"I have never seen it." Says the whale, "but deep in my body, I remember it."

"Why do you care," says the tuna, "if you will never see it."

"There are bones in my body built to walk through the forests and the mountains." Says the whale.

"They will disappear." Says the tuna, "one day, your body will forget the forests and the mountains."

"Maybe I don't want to forget," Says the whale, "The forests were once my home."

"I have seen the forests." Whispers the salmon, almost to itself.

"Tell me what you have seen," says the whale.

"The forests spawned me." Says the salmon. "They sent me to the ocean to grow. When I am fat with the bounty of the ocean, I will bring it home."

"Why would the forests seek the bounty of the oceans?" Asks the whale. "They have bounty of their own."

"You forget," says the salmon, "That the oceans were once their home."

[anaukeya3]

So annoying to me when people think citing the actions of FICTIONAL female characters counts as evidence that femininity doesn't hold women back. "Omg, she can run and fight with heels and a dress! What an icon, I can't even walk in heels." She is not real, and therefore her body doesn't follow the same laws that ours do. She will do whatever the writers want her to, because she is ANIMATED. And even if the actor is a real person, the scene is choreographed, rehearsed and edited with CGI. It's fake!

[boundlessemperorvalkyrie]

Not only do these types of outfits make the stunts harder to pull off, they can also make them more dangerous. “I actually was put into a fire sequence in a negligee,” Donna Keegan, whose credits include “Independence Day” and “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom,” told me. “Do you know how flammable negligees are? They just kept dousing flame retardant stuff all over it.” “One time, I had to dive through a plate glass window with a spaghetti strap top on and in a miniskirt with Doc Marten boots,” Keegan recalled. “You're not getting candy glass for that kind of piece. No matter what they're going to do, there are shards. ... You come out a porcupine, bleeding everywhere.” Their skin's exposed, and they often don’t have any padding. “Try doing stunts with no pads and no clothing. I have been thrown down marble stairs in a bra and underwear,” Keegan said, remarking that the first time she saw that set, “I looked at that and went, ‘You're kidding me, right?’”

Source: Documentary lauds Hollywood stuntwomen, who do everything men do but in high heels (Sept. 22, 2020)

One of the most sought-after stuntwomen in Hollywood, Ms. [Zoe] Bell crashes through glass, slams into book cases and leaps from tall buildings. She has done stunts on more than 20 films and television series, including "Alias," "Kill Bill" and "Xena: Warrior Princess." Asked if she could accomplish a 22-story spinning fall from a skyscraper for 2004's "Catwoman," Ms. Bell thought for a moment and said, "Yes, I can." To get the chilling fall just right, she did it four times. "It's not until after you've been hit by a car and landed all right that the fear kicks in," she said. Stuntwomen often face greater dangers than their male cohorts. While stuntmen wear pads under their clothing, stuntwomen in action films are often minimally clothed; there is no place to hide padding or protective gear in their bikinis or ball gowns. Doubling for Sharon Stone, Ms. Bell had to do the high fall in "Catwoman" in high heels. "Because that's how women fight and die—in heels," she said, with a slight roll of her eyes.

The funny

So I regularly come on tumblr to look after "tumblr sexyman cotest" because for some reason it reeeeally makes my day, makes me giggle uncontrolably. And when I saw poll with Luigi and Caine, I thought it was funny. But then I saw THAT LUIGI WAS WINNING (at that moment). I blew up from laughter. I mean, Caine is the one wearing cool ringmaster suit

So I've got this outfit and pose swap idea and I thought it was funny, and I drew it, cause funny. Hope you'll find it at least a bit funny too +extra sketch. I also think they would get along

Go vote for Tenna btw, don't let him loose @mimosa-sexypeople-contests-2026

Wish one day there will be one more video like "Pro Artists Animated the Tumblr Sexyman Tournament.", peak comedy

I’m never leaving this website

[bookshelfdreams]

if you elect me king of the universe i will make it so everyone can assign their period to a man of their choice. we will call it reparations for the patriarchy.

[bookshelfdreams]

#I'd have to decide#several candidates present themselves

@ilikemarthajones of course you'll be able to pick a different man for each individual period

[swords-n-spindles]

What happens if we all pick the same man, at the same time? Would he bleed to death? Should we start a rota

[bookshelfdreams]

I have put some more thought into it, here is how it would work:

A period is defined as lasting from ovulation to ovulation. You can reassign it at any point in that cycle, but only ever the specific period you are currently experiencing.

A man only experiences multiple periods at once if he's assigned them by people who are ovulating on the same day. Since human menstruation is asynchronous, even if he's assigned multiple periods, it's much more likely he'll experience them successively.

He will have all the symptoms that come with that specific period.

Menstruation won't kill him. It's perfectly natural. Bodies are built to withstand it. He won't lose that much blood. Most people experience only mild symptoms anyway. Even a couple simultaneous periods won't kill anyone.

If he's assigned a lot of periods, hundreds to thousands, then yes, that could kill him. But lbh if he pissed off that many women, he probably deserved it.

Boys will become eligible for periods at age 14 and age out of it at 65. To keep it fair, anyone 55 or older at the time of implementation will remain eligible for the rest of their life.

It will not be possible to trace a period back to the original owner.

Once a period is reassigned, there's no way to stop it or take it back. He'll just have to deal with it.

[swords-n-spindles]

Thank you for this meticulous planning and research!

This

was the specific scenario I was interested in. Let's get to work!

[cakeeatingwingedcat]

I have a follow-up question: How does it affect the ability to get pregnant of the people involved?

[bookshelfdreams]

Good question! If the man has a uterus and he's assigned the period before the uterine lining is expelled then yes, theoretically he could become pregnant.

For the original owner of the period, it only works as a contraceptive if they reassign it right after ovulation. So not very dependable.

Hope this helps!

Iroh: so Toph, what are your goals in life?

Toph: I’ve been banned from every major city’s transportation system except Omashu

Toph: I don’t know what their limit is but I will fucking find it 

[probsjosh]

King Boomie, having exactly zero limits:

[theotheristhedoctor]

Unstoppable object meets immovable force

[gaangarang]

[Toph eventually slips up and is captured by the city guard force. Instead of being imprisoned or exiled, Toph finds herself being given audience with the King of Omashu.]

Bumi: Well, well, well. It seems I have finally met the troublemaker who has been causing such chaos with my rail systems.

Toph:…

Bumi: I must say, I am thoroughly impressed with your earthbending abilities. You remind me of myself when I was a lad.

Toph: Get to the point.

Bumi: I see great potential in you, Toph Beifong. I want you inherit my title once I am no longer fit to rule.

Toph: Wait what the fuck

[out-there-on-the-maroon]

Why wasn’t this Toph’s future instead of becoming a freaking cop. This would have made so much more sense. 

[gallusrostromegalus]

My favorite part of this is “when I am no longer fit to rule” because

1. Implying Bumi was fit to rule at any point

1.1 except maybe in the sense that he was completely shredded

2. That he has no plans to die, (nor would death necessarily make him unfit to rule), but that he apparently intends to like. Tuck his arms and legs into himself and just roll off into the sunset.

3. Given that the Earth Kingdom has an actual ruling family that causes some drama in LoK, Toph continuing to cause monarchy confusion is both 100% in character and fucking hilarious.

[definitelynotaminion]

Toph takes over as King Bumi the second and everyone is like “no that’s not how inheriting works” and Bumi is like “No no she’s right, I did say “inherit my title!”

[aromantic-angel]

When toph is no longer fit to rule, she instills bumi (Aang’s son) as her heir and he is known as bumi 3.

[catflowerqueen]

Her first act as ruler is to ban herself from Omashu’s transportation system, thus fulfilling one of her life goals.

[carolofthebell]

But then she ignores her ban and continues to use the transport system forcing her guard to chase her and print wanted posters declaring her a fugitive.

Fortunately the clerks served under King Bumi the First and are well aquatinted with explaining chaos to the confused citizenry of Omashu. Without missing a beat they print the posters in 2 parts.

The first (read this aloud) part is a fairly standard Wanted poster explaining that King Bumi II Toph the Blind Melon Bandit Lord is Banned from the Omashu Transport system for crimes etc….

The second part (do not read this aloud) explains not to be concerned; if you see the King at one of the stations just shout “There she is!” The guards will chase her and you are free to go about your day. The King thanks you for participating in this guard training drill.
