The best way I can explain why Asanthony is not Aziracrow to me without getting into the "soul" argument or whatever is: imagine them at a Chili's.

Aziracrow? That would be funny as fuck. Aziraphale discovers all the food is premade and just reheated and nearly goes into a fugue state but then unfortunately really enjoys the cajun pasta. He also orders a bloomin' onion and it shows up even though that's an Outback thing. Crowley complains that the only reason he agreed to this is because Panera is dead to him after they stopped serving the heart attack lemonade. He however then realizes that the Chili's takeaway menu features gallon-sized margaritas and promptly orders six of them.

Asanthony? idk man they'd probably like it?

Book Omens in TV Series situation #1

This is something that's been in my head since S1 lmao

[knivesandteeth]

Personally love the Idea that most of star trek is reconstructed from personal logs. Because it plugs all the plot holes and explains a bunch of stuff like "why does the ferengi characterisation vary so wildly?" Humans are bigots

"why do the trills change appearance between tng and ds9?" Mistake in the logs

"why arent garak and Bashir fucking?" They are, garak keeps deleting if from the logs

Hi hello

Im the one with the acephobia post, excuse my english

This post was a personnal thought at first more written out of spite for the artist and less than an elaborate thought and how it might be interpreted and im sorry for that

Your reblog made me realize how bad it could be misunderstood and im grateful I saw your post quite early so I could try to fix my mistake, somehow

I now edited my post to try clarify that

Always open to discussion

Have a good day

Sorry for the late reply, but thank you so much for reaching out and attempting to clarify. I'm still uncomfortable because it still feels like an insulting correlation to make, especially as someone who was a direct target of the bullying. Like, even just as a personal thought, "well at least Zoey hates the ending so I can use it as further evidence of her being a shitty person" is still kinda gross?

But at the same time, I totally get having off-the-cuff thoughts and just posting without nuance - we've all been there. It's Tumblr, I'd say that's like 99% of posts, really, lol. And seriously, thank you for considering what I said and apologizing - it really means a lot to me. I'm sorry you got anon hate for the post, that's really shitty.

I know some people don't share my opinion about the Good Omens finale and why/how I love it

But to be quite honest, I'm glad I'm not on the same side as an extremely openly acephobic artist (who insults and incites group harassment of those who write ace Aziracrow), who trivializes 🍇 and insults and harasses all those who dared to like the finale or those who are neutral about it.

Im so glad we don't share this opinion, at least

[theeminentlyimpractical]

Listen, I'm all for being petty, but drawing a correlation between Zoey's opinion about the finale and her previous bullying behavior is insulting to me as someone who both a) disliked the ending, and b) was personally targeted by Maddie, Char, Zoey, et al.

I'm very uncomfortable with this take. If Zoey is bullying people again - which I haven't seen - it is a pattern of behavior that is fully on her. It has nothing to do with how she felt about the ending, and to imply as much is fucked up. Don't use MY bully to insinuate that people who don't like the ending are acephobic rape apologists.

Happy Pride Month

[reasonably-tattered]

one of my favorite things is how excited Aziraphale gets at the prospect of fixing Anathema's bike; he's so jazzed, he so overdoes things that this very concussed woman can tell something is up, even without winking her third eye. he just can't help himself: he sees a vehicle and he needs to make things Fancy.

there's an old clip of Leslie Jordan (RIP) talking about his love of stickers, and he says something like "homosexuals were put on earth to make things beautiful." Aziraphale heard that and said "let me grab my feather boa."

[reasonably-tattered]

something I couldn't help noticing is how heteronormative that finale felt, which was confusing as all get-out given a story that's queer as a fez on a snake.

that initial scene of the War in Heaven really sets the tone. there's a weird, grimdark masculinity. Aziraphale, somehow, is revealed to be aces at the art of war. he's sooty, armored, an extra straight out of Rings of Power.

the entire film, actually, is an effort to "man up" the angel. he barks orders in Heaven; he shows up the mafia. there's a cold space between him and Crowley, a dedicated avoidance of physical intimacy.

knowing now what we do about the grimdark freaks in the writers' room, so much of this out-of-character presentation makes sense. they took the gay angel and wrote "no homo."

writers on tumblr:

i made a free writing analysis site because i got tired of pasting my drafts into 15 different tools 😭

it live-highlights: • nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, etc • repeated words / accidental overuse • readability stats + sentence lengths • instant thesaurus suggestions • word frequency reports

and it updates as you type. no account needed.

still early & i’m updating it constantly, but it’s already really useful for editing drafts and catching weird repetition
