the best part about the vees is that all three of them are absolutely convinced that they are the loadbearing element of the trio and that the other two would totally crash out without them around to babysit. and the even better part is that somehow all three of them are absolutely right.

I'm back bitches!

My account was terminated earlier today for no reason. I hadn't even posted in days.

After talking with some other moots and their moots who were banned at the same time, turns out there's a fun pattern!

1. All of us are trans women or otherwise TMA

2. All of us had just followed the account of another TMA user who just made a new account.

Even for tumblr this is so fucking obviously retaliatory.

None of this is new, tumblr has been banning transfems for no reason for a while now.

All of you who made a fuss about the note changes the other day? Start fussing about the discriminatory moderation of this site for fucks sakes. Its an actually serious issue and IT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS

I’d say I’ve bitten off more than I can chew, but my mouth’s full

i think one of the most frustrating things about trying to find fandom/character content in a tag, is the sheer amount of [character]xreader fics that fill up HUGE chunks of a tag. and the more popular the character is, the more often you see them.

obv everyone will have their own thing they enjoy and obv the writers have quite a lot of fans of it

but also. I'M TIRED OF SEEING THEM. can't believe i have to start blacklisting the ten billion tags associated with them so i can manually clean up a search.

summer lovin!

Tua S3 pitch:

About 5mins into the first episode one of the sibs just kinda goes "does this mean saving the world isn't really our responsibility anymore?"

The rest of the sibs pause, take a beat, then huddle together whispering furiously while the sparrows stand there and are a little like wtf. They are shushed, harshly, when they try to interrupt.

The umbrella academy take a vote. It's unanimous.

They flip Reggie the bird, slide emo!ben a forwarding address and peace the fuck out of there.

They end up in Malibu. None of them actually knows how they ended up in Malibu. But it's sunny. Different.

It's worth trying to make it work.

They go househunting. Everyone finds the perfect place for themselves that is exactly to their taste but still manage to find something wrong with it and passing.

3 months of living in a tiny rental together Five finally says fuck it and lays down hard commission cash on a mansion close to the beach that can fit all of them.

Everyone hates it. They complain vigorously even as the unpack all their shit and claim their rooms.

Emo!ben shows up. He's weird. Like really weird.

They love him anyway.

The rest of the season is just sitcom moments of them adjusting to their new life and navigating social norms.

(Allison is the most adjusted. Diego is investigating the mailman for a possible serial murder.)

Eventually they think maybe, just maybe, they might be somewhere in the vicinity of being happy.

Does anyone else think it’d be fun to put oneself in a MRI machine and see what brain parts lights up whilst reacting to whump. Or general emotional hurt/comfort. (I feel like diff parts of the brain might light up, but not sure)

And then have a non whump person do the same.

And then try and analyze the results

and like write a paper or smth yeah that’d be fun

I mean everything would be cleared with the IRB etc... Wait how many ppl would have to be in the sample pool for the results to be considered significant

MRI machines are potentially claustrophobic, I wonder if this would affect stuff. Maybe there’s open MRIs that are nicer. Also how long do they take. How do people record brain reactions, I’ve seen studies but I don’t do brain stuff and don’t remember the details.

Also, this would involve explaining whump to people IRL

where is funding coming from

what journal-- wait, who is peer reviewing this

...what is the title of the study/paper

If it gets citations who is citing it
