AoS + text posts pt. 20/?

My blog is unsafe for anyone thinking of watching the fucking Harry Potter show btw

[aphony-cree]

Saw a commercial that said “without the letters A B and O there’d be no you”

It was about blood types

As someone versed in fanfic tagging, that’s not the first thing I thought of

[sorryimnotthatkindofdoctor]

This needs to go with the deli sign that asked, “how do you top your sub?”.

[aphony-cree]

This is now officially a thread for things that make fanficcers stop and blink

Please add more

Agents of Shield text posts part 9!

[luimnigh]

Okay, here's my idea:

The British should put a time limit on the Monarchy.

Not like declaring a republic tomorrow, but deciding on a date in the future that ends the British Monarchy.

And there's a perfect date for it coming up!

October 14th, 2066.

A thousand years since the Battle of Hastings. A thousand years of this one specific bloodline ruling England.

Call time on the Monarchy after exactly one thousand years. Nice, and neat.

Even better: Charles isn't living 44 years. He'll be gone in about twenty. Now William? He's what, 40? Yeah, he can live another 44 years. His great grandmother was over a hundred, his granny was 96, William can make it to 84 barring accident or assassination.

So on October 14th 2066, William the Last steps down a thousand years after William the First won the crown.

Nice, neat, and fair. William gets the crown he's been waiting forty years for already, but ten-year-old George grows up without expectation of it.

Have a nice big abdication ceremony, even.

[lasrina]

Plus, what an absolute baller move to announce your regnal name as William the Last.

[sycamorality]

all disabiliy aids and medication should be free for everyone

THIS IS A DISABILITYT POST STOP MAKING IT ABOUT EVERYTHING ELSE you can make your own posts about other things ok. this is a disability post thank you

[atomicwrongs]

Having your interests mocked as a kid and general low self esteem will have you insulting the things you like even when they're generally considered very good. Because you like it, and historically when you like something it's stupid and not worth anyone's time. So you will say nonsense like "I recommend this book/game/film, but it's okay if you hate it, it sucks, I really enjoyed it but that's because I'm an idiot" and you are recommending them the Citizen fucking Kane of that particular media type. And importantly: you need to stop doing this it is killing you

[001x456]

fanfic writers and fan artists are carrying fandoms. they are the backbone of fandoms.

thank you fanfic writers and fan artists

[bisexual-horror-fan]

[gjdraws]

I'm sure I've left some people out because I slapped this together in 15 minutes but it's a whole lot more, imo artists and writers are nothing without these other guys (gn)

It's an ecosystem guys, we need all of it

europeans be like “omg north americans are so racist it’s horrible” and then elect fascists

[thebellekeys]

I would like to emphasize that I agree with all of these tags by the way. My post wasn't aiming to pin all of Europe's grotesque racism on the new elections.

[dailymanners]

A few weeks ago I was at a board game night with some of my old classmates from various mainland European countries. They started talking about how horrible Trump's treatment of immigrants is and how they're so glad to be in Europe where nothing like that is happening right now. I asked them what they thought about the fact that their own governments were complicit in turning the Mediterranean into a mass grave of asylum seekers, and some of them legitimately didn't even know and were surprised to hear that their own governments had enacted policies that caused the deaths of thousands of asylum seekers.

Even here in Iceland, almost nobody has been talking about the fact that some of the far right populist parties have legitimately been talking about wanting to establish detainment camps to keep asylum seekers in.

[dailymanners]

This post is a few months old now, and the bit about Iceland is now outdated, because Alþingi (the Icelandic parliament) passed the bill approving the detention center for asylum seekers. It will be legal to handcuff and detain children there.

Never let anyone from Europe feed you the lie that racism and fascism are unique to North America in the 21st century.

[dailymanners]

This post made racists angry enough to harass me over it, which all that's going to do is make me bring this post back and reblog it more.

[sweetvillainjude]

rereading queen of nothing and nothing beats that moment after jude slays the serpent and cardan returns when she runs straight into his arms while everyone’s watching and he just holds her back, shaking. and later when she asks him what it was like and he says it was like being in the dark, alone, knowing nothing—except jude, because cardan would always know jude. “i knew little else, but i always knew you.”

has anyone noticed lately how black friday deals or any type of "sale" deals aren't actually deals. like i had something on my amazon wishlist that was $19.99 before, and now it's saying it WAS $49.99 but is on sale for $19.99 for a "black Friday deal." as if it wasn't just $19.99 two weeks ago at regular price. like these damn websites atp are straight up lying and trying to trick people into thinking something is on sale/is a good deal when it's not. and this isn't exclusive to that one item or even just amazon. i've been seeing it everywhere. the fuck

[mercurymusing]

There are a several sites for tracking this kind of thing, depending if you're looking at a particular product or a particular market.

For Amazon, I like to sanity check Camel Camel Camel if a particular deal seems too off.

For example, Amazon is listing these headphones as a -43% sale at $199.99.

CCC backs that up! But also, looks like they do go on fairly frequent (if smaller) sales. Good to know!

As a bonus, CCC is pretty easy to check for whatever listing. You just need the listing ID: https://camelcamelcamel.com/product/B0CCZ26B5V

From: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CCZ26B5V

This kind of thing doesn't help if they make a dozen listings, or if they have one listing with several options that change the pricing. Still handy though.

[radishhqueen]

This is a helpful tool! This applies moreso to Americans (though non-USAmericans can file reports), but if you notice activity described by OP, that's called "deceptive pricing" and is illegal under FTC regulations. The FTC has a pretty simple reporting system here. This reporting also applies to all sorts of fraud, from scam calls to identity theft. It may not immediately resolve your personal issue, but it can help the FTC gather enough data and proof to bring a lawsuit against the company.

What really makes this for me is that OP could have phoned it in on the chorus and just repeated the same fics, but no. They found a unique one every time. Class act.

we don't talk enough about how when gale was whipped, peeta stood up for him and went up there because he knew he was katniss' best friend (and maybe lover for all he knew) and he didn't make any comments about it to katniss at all (at least not romance related ones)

but when peeta was tortured and hijacked, gale compared himself to him and said he would never top that level of pain and now katniss won't choose him

[ivy-michaels]

We need to bring “read another book” type energy to like, fandom in general, and I’m not joking.

If you could go back 20 years an get people, at scale, to expand their taste in fiction beyond Harry Potter, we would not be here right now.

[ivy-michaels]

People focusing on the Harry Potter series on this post are missing the point.

The point isn't that Harry Potter itself is the problem, it's that a large fandom obsessed with one work, and only one work, to the exclusion of all other works, combined with a rapturous devotion to that specific creator, resulted in a socio-political landscape where one very popular author of children stories can single-handedly swing a society into a genocide.
