So....Hi. Hello! Ummm... This is my blog. Welcome! Here you will find a lot of Hannibal, Mads and Hugh. You will also see some McDanno, puppies, kitties and snakes (I do tag snakes, but, not a lot else.) There is music, and politics, and love and a LOT of beauty!

Angst fics can help people come to terms with their own grief, begin healing, or give people that good cry that they need.

Smut fics can help people affirm and accept their sexuality. It can help them explore their sexuality in a safe way. They can also just be fun, and having fun is a drastically undervalued way to improve your mental health.

Dark fics can help people face their fears or process their trauma. It can make them feel safer and more secure. It can help them find their courage.

Fluff fics can give people rest and respite and comfort. It can give them hope that soft places exist and that maybe there is one out there for them. It can bring up their mood, which, if they have depression, can be a life saver.

And every fic people write makes someone feel less alone.

Point being, just because a particular thing doesn’t serve you, doesn’t mean it lacks value.

This is not to say that we have to consume all fic uncritically. Of course not. It is just to say that entire “genres” aren’t trash or lacking value just because they don’t serve you.

This part:

Point being, just because a particular thing doesn’t serve you, doesn’t mean it lacks value.

[havocthecat]

I mean, yes, and also people can just like a particular type of fic for no redeeming value whatsoever. You don’t need to justify what you like. It’s okay. You can like things. Even dark things. Even fluffy things. Even sad things. Or porny things. You can just like things. Even if they’re not quite socially acceptable.

You don’t have to explain yourself to anyone.

You can also consume fiction and critique it and its purpose if you want, that’s fine too, but let’s be real: No one is required to defend their fic likes. It’s just that I’m here in defense of “I like this and I don’t want to explain why or what socially redeeming value my fanfic has.”

aren't you like 60?

no offense but why tf are you on tumblr?

Because when I signed up for Tumblr, back in 2012, nobody told me it would be like Logan's Run*, and once I got over a certain age I would need to be hunted down and killed.

I suppose I should have read the terms and conditions.

Dear lord, they even do it to Neil Gaiman. I'm so tired, at this point.

Question for all my followers. How many of y’all are still wearing masks everywhere? And are you doing this because you’re mandated to or out of an abundance of caution?

[queerasflux]

listen. listen. the pandemic is still fucking happening. “abundance of caution” my ass. people are fucking dying every fucking day, of course I’m wearing a goddamn mask. Of course I am. I don’t want me to die, I don’t want my loved ones to die, I don’t want my asshole neighbor to die even tho I hate him. I’m going to wear the fucking mask until the plague stops happening.

HAPPY 47TH BIRTHDAY MISHA COLLINS

We are actually taking better care of ourselves when we take care of others. How relatively little it takes from me to make a big difference in someone else’s life. There are little things you can do that make you feel good, that make you stronger, and that really help other people.

cant believe there are people out there who open up skyrim and unironically play as some shit thats not an argonian

[thyrell]

khajiit can stay but they're on thin ice

[0utoftouchthursday-deactivated2]

Look Khajiit is objectively the best way to play. Your base unarmed damage is 15 instead of 1, so right when you start the game your fists are as strong as the best two handed weapons you can get. The second heavy armor skill tree perk adds your gauntlet’s armor rating to your unarmed damage. You can very easily get a pair of gauntlets in Riften that have an enchantment that boosts unarmed damage. All of these stack. You don’t even need to waste perk points on weapon skills you can just beat the shit out of everything in the game with your claws

[thyrell]

thanks catgirlcocks

[wilwheaton]

Me: Oh! I'm DEFFO going to be an aggro, hand-to-hand Kajit next time I play Skyrim! Next Time I Play Skyrim: Okay, stealth archer it is!

Frequently I encounter non Native folks who tell me they think reservations are some form of reparatoins to Natives from the US government. I even had someone close to me tell me they thought reservations were places to “reserve” our cultures.

Where I’m from (South Dakota) reservations were concentration camps where they sent us to die after they stole and colonized all of the land every US citizen occupies. In the early SD Rez days our ppl had to get permission from district agents (white settler men) to get food, fix our homes, or even leave our community to travel to another community on our Rez to visit relatives. We couldn’t hunt cuz they killed millions of our buffalo. If we didn’t get permission from the white settler agent we couldn’t eat, fix our homes or visit relatives because we would be violating US law & could be arrested. Also our cultures & ceremonies were illegal under US law until the Indian Religious Freedom Act in 1978.

So plz educate the ppl you love and care abt because everyone in the USA is living in an illegal settler colony, Indigenous ppl survived their genocide & we’re her to say these settlers never gave af abt us & never will.

Hilda by Duane Bryers

[badkidgorgug]

More Hilda!!

[themockingcrows]

in this family we love and support Hilda.

[i-am-the-narwhal]

Yes! Hilda!

[luidilovins]

What i love about this artist’s depictions of women is even the sexualized ones the woman is always genuinely happy and enjoying herself. Frolicking or making funny faces, she’s living her life and looking sexy while doing it, not sitting in a sexual pose for the audience’s view.

[squish-this]

I always forget about Hilda and am so pleased when she randomly shows up on my dash. Always makes my day

[snailfarts]

I love Hilda so much and I want her to be happy

[smuttine]

more Hilda!

[agileo-101]

I freaking love Hilda, there’s needs to be more art like this.
