Okay. I was on my beloved AO3 and I saw something that made me do a double take. So, now I really want to know…

What is your AO3 user ID?

I’m an OG user 5 digits or less

Six figures baby!

I’m in the millions…

I’m so curious to see how long people have been on AO3! I know some people have been on there since beta/invite only, but I would love to see what the number is on tumblr!

Good Luck!

Am reading PHM after seeing and loving the film and I'm realizing that it is an academic's fantasy of getting kidnapped into your dream job with, oh no, all the resources and funding and exciting important space adventures! It's like fifty shades for asexual researchers

looks like reform hogs are scraping the bottom of the bin for the tiniest bit of dirt. it takes a bin to clean up clacton!

context under the cut. british politics are very silly

nigel farage was a member of parliament "representing" clacton (he goes to the US to schmooze with trump more than he spends time in his own constituency). he's leader of reform, a far right party and is a fascist piece of shit. he also looks like a sea devil from doctor who

he's responsible for brexit, which has tanked the uk economy and is also in the epstein files.

it was discovered that he accepted five million pounds from a cryptocurrency billionnaire in thailand and failed to declare it, which, if found guilty, would cost him his seat in parliament. so to worm his way out of the investigation he quit

this triggered a by-election in his constituency. he immediately announced he would be running for his seat he resigned from. an obvious farce to flex the support he supposedly has.

thing is every other political party could tell what he was doing so boycotted the election.

enter Count Binface, intergalactic dictator of the Recyclons from Sigma IX:

He's been a joke candidate for some time. In the UK anyone can run in elections, you just need ten signatures from residents and £500. This time, he genuinely has a chance of winning. Without the other major parties to split the vote, he could potentially unite the anti Reform vote in Clacton and win Nigel's seat

so Nigel will either win and the investigation into him will continue, which will lead to him being fired, OR he loses his seat to a man with a bin on his head.

it is BINEVITABLE

me, reaching into my dresser drawer for black pants: I hope this isn’t the pair with big holes worn in the inner thighs

Marie Kondo, gently over my shoulder: why is a pair of pants you find unwearable still in your dresser drawer

me: oh shit that’s right!! The dresser is for clothes that under some circumstance I might conceivably wear!!

Marie Kondo, beaming proudly: Yes, that’s correct!! These pants must have been your favorites. How wonderful that they were so comfortable and practical that you wore them out. But now since they no longer function as pants, you should move them from the drawer where you keep your functioning pants!

me: Yes thanks I got it they’re in the fabric basket now

Marie Kondo, fading back into the darkness: I love what you’ve done with the kitchen!!

The notion of KonMari as some creepy semi-embodied but entirely benevolent spirit, like a well-intentioned Bloody Mary, is so perfect and wonderful.

At what point do you suppose Madara Uchiha - MADARA. UCHIHA - decided that the uniform for his super secret ninja society that would strike fear in the heart of the ninja world had to include nail polish?

Like, was he just lying there at night, dreaming of world domination and thinking, "Okay, so we capture all the tailed beasts - rip them out of their hosts - combine them back into the ten-tails, of which I will become the host - I entrap the world in an infinite genjutsu - hmmm. We'll need matching robes. A tasteful black-and-red design with a classical cloud pattern, that should do it. Also mani-pedis. Maybe I'll let them choose the shade, but they do have to get both the hands and feet done. We're a proper secret ninja society."

(And like. These are nice mani-pedis. You can tell because Hidan's robes might get progressively shredded, but his nail polish never so much as chips - and yes, I realise that on a meta level, that's because chipped nail polish is a detail beyond the level of the show's animation, but in-universe, I think we can conclude that Kakuzu definitely has a budget line for nail salon visits.)

And - crucially - why didn't Madara enforce that requirement with Team Taka when they joined up? Sure, you could argue that at that point, the Akatsuki were basically done, Madara was on the brink of getting everything he'd needed them for - but he bothered to source four Akatsuki robes for his newest members, including Jugo whom we're told normal clothes don't fit. What, was everyone too busy to take the new kids to the nail salon?

Among my most popular works last year was a series of comics I made after watching Sonic 3 where I was like “what if Shadow got a spinoff series where he and a grieving Stone were forced to live together” and then the bottom comic got 50k likes on twitter
