Some guy in Ancient Greece, pointing at a perfectly climbable mountain: There are gods up there!

The rest of Ancient Greece: Sick, no need to fact check that

Rick Riordan finally snapped and released emails he sent to The Lightning Thief movie makers….

I can’t stop laughing

I’m curious

In your opinion, what’s a bad grade? I’ve discovered that, among my friend group, we all have a different idea of what classifies a bad grade. I wanna see what others think.

I debated about posting about this, because it’s a subtle and difficult issue, and I don’t want to tell the Raven Cycle fandom how to live their lives. I don’t want to hamper creativity or enthusiasm.

But.

If you are going to racebend Ronan Lynch — aggressive, petulant, thuggish Ronan Lynch — as a POC, please, please, please consider racebending the rest of the characters as well. There are two big reasons for this:

1) When only Ronan is made into a POC, not Noah or Blue or Gansey or Adam, it begs the question: why is the fandom seeing him, and only him, as a POC? It just comes with a subtle suitcase full of stereotypes and questions, and I don’t know — it makes me uncomfortable to see only tough-guy Ronan racebent.

However, I wouldn’t have posted merely for that. Also important is

2) The books are shamefully white-washed; I’ve posted about how my next project is going to be better but there is no point sugar-coating the present. When the fandom continually racebends Ronan and only Ronan, you’re giving me credit for representation that isn’t there; people coming from the outside believe that POC Ronan is canon.

Please: Point out that the books are white. Keep holding me to better writing. Racebend the characters. But please, racebend all of them, not just the punk-ass kid who gets into fights.

that part in star wars where han shoots the communication link to get out of having to speak to someone over the phone is like honestly the most relatable thing i’ve ever seen

I don’t think I ever posted this, but this is a small acrylic painting I did a while back based off of the scene in Blue Lily, Lily Blue of when Gansey let’s Blue drive the Pig.

Doing a re-read of POA and just realized Buckbeak’s hearing was on 4/20
