i see another person with an mv0 tag 😌 objectively the correct opinion i hope he retires sooooon never to come back ☺️ in the meantime oscar needs to lock the fuck iiiiiinnnnn!!! hope you‘re having a good one haha

Comrade 🫡 legit I dislike that man sooooo much. Even putting aside off-track stuff, he's just a dirty driver!! Most recent exhibit that springs to mind is him deliberately running into George, like what the fuck, dude??? He should've gotten a race ban for that forrreal. But yes please go retire and look after your daughter 😭 just get offffff my screen

I also really dislike lando ngl, he honestly just seems like a whiny, entitled rich kid. I remember people were praising him for being "open about his mental health" when really all he was doing was spiralling and beating himself up on camera. (Contrast that with George, for example, who has openly talked about seeing a psychologist.)

Oscar my man you need to thrash them like our men's cricket team just thrashed the poms!!!! TAKE HEART!!!!! They probably all say mel-born and think that carrot and beetroot are weird on a burger, you need to make them eat your dust!!!

hey - in one of your recent posts you talk about having watched a video essay discussing art fight user statistics. do you still have the link to that? i'd be super interested. cheers to you :D

i just wanted to say hi percy because timezones suck and i haven't seen you in a while, WHAT'S UP?! :-D how's life, how's the wayne rogers lost media search going, how is the stagecoast west doing etc. i hope you're well and going through summer with much enthusiasm! best wishes from my side :-)

HIIIIIIIII! I'm doing pretty good! I started learning stenography for court reporting a few weeks ago and that's been awesome so far. Wayne searching has stalled out a little just because I think I might have my hands on everything it's possible to get my hands on at this point (although I still need to sweep through and grab things like his Diagnosis Murder episode). I saw you moved to France(?) for school? 👀 hope that's going well for you as well!

i saw this (https://www.tumblr.com/percysfoxblog/779645450678583296?source=share) post from your foxblog and everything in my mind immediately switched over to foxtrap brain so now you get to hear my thoughts o7.

to me, this image is soooooo jt-coded. i imagine them all on their winter holiday, maybe having driven up north (or east? higher into the mountains? god i'm bad at us-american geography 😭 forgive me) and it's jt's first ever big snow. he's maybe five or six years old, they arrive to go sledding, the kid gets huge, HUGE eyes upon seeing the landscape and dives head-first into the snow. maybe he's slowly growing into his first ever winter pelt and the snow sticks in clumps to it. i'd imagine he would have a blast, jumping around, sniffing, pulling a mouse out from under the snow. beej has to pull him out of a huge pile of snow and he kind of has to guess where he is under all those layers. maybe they've attached a little flag to his jacket for that reason so that it may look out when he goes crawling on the floor 😂 or maybe hawk's knitted him a little hat that fits his ears!!! and just like in the picture i'd imagine jt would keep licking his face free of the snow.

anyways. afterwards in their holiday housing, jt immediately curls up on trap's legs, starts purring as his dad works his fur over. and they make a little fire in the fireplace and he makes very cute fix kit noises. is this anything. is it apparent that i keep thinking. of the foxtrap. happy trapper tuesday.

HI OKAY. This has been sitting in my inbox for forever because I wanted to write a little piece to go with it but I have no idea if I'll ever get to it and TODAY IS THE ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF THE CONCEPT OF FOXTRAP!!!!!!! wah. I am genuinely unbearably tender about this and coincidentally it is a Trapper Tuesday today so it STILL STANDS. I'm thinking about JT all flopped out in front of the fire, tail wagging like crazy while one of his older sisters reads him a storybook. The boys are off curled up on the couch, Trapper purring up a storm when BJ nuzzles him and Hawkeye scratches his ear. They all have a hard time remembering when they weren't happy, these days.

Dear serpercival,

Well… here it is: https://ceterumcenseo.neocities.org/literature/documents/hstp_tjmd_fic_oct_2024.pdf

3.5k words of a fake study surrounding curses in the Foxboy Trapper 'Verse. It's currently hosted on my website as a PDF - I don't know if I want to post it to ao3. (because if i want to do that, i need to abolish ALL those 20something tables i've currently got in the document!).

Oh, yeah: Official summary is btw: " „Head and shoulders, tail and paws: Correlation between curse length and curse-caused characteristics“ (colloquially also called “The McIntyre Method”) is nowadays considered to be one of the most influential and important scientific articles dealing with the markedness of curses, although it was disreputable at the time of publishing to question the widespread ideas about curse characteristics. […] The study is the most frequently cited one on curses and serves as a milestone in understanding its matter. "

I tried to take some pointers from both Professional Courtesy as well as Mating Habits, you'll definitely recognise it. Keep a look out for the citation (yes, it's got a fake bibliography) of "Oughton, 1952".

Anyways - hope you enjoy? It was definitely a lot of fun, I like number crunching and I really like that AU, as we have previously established. If you read it, I'd be delighted to hear your opinions! :D

Best wishes to you and kind regards also to the other contributors of the AU! Tigoteus

oh my god.

oh my god.

This is genuinely one of the coolest things anybody's ever sent me and I'm so so thrilled by it. Graphs! Charts! The attention to detail!!!!!!!! Oughhhhhhhhhhh I've been going absolutely insane about this since you sent it to me and I'm certain I'll continue to go completely insane.

Trap scores a 68/84, but three questions (respiratory alterations, other bodily alterations, and developmental changes) aren't really applicable for him, so adjusted to ignore those three questions but end up with a score out of 84 that's a 79.3 - spot on by your chart! Super super neat and well thought out. The little touch of an acknowledgement for Gonzo and some really careful concealing of the fact that BJ, Trapper, and Hawkeye are all working at the same place is great. oughhhh going nuts about this.

Thoroughly recommend that anyone who enjoys the verse reads this, it's awesome.
