navigation/about me

I realized my theme won't show up on the Tumblr app, so I thought I'd make a pinned post!!

Hello, welcome! I'm E (she/they), and I'm 33. I've had this blog since I was a teen, so I'm very unlikely to ever fully leave this place apart from some occasional breaks. Outside Tumblr, I'm a sociolinguist who works in marketing and a wife to my lovely wife.

You can find my edits here. My favorite things to gif are ladies and ladies looking at other ladies with heart eyes.

I enjoy writing fanfiction in my free time. I've written the most fanfic for Swan Queen, followed by Gelphie (my current hyperfixation), Villaneve and Harlivy! You can find all my writing (that has made it out of my Google docs folders) on AO3.

I'm on Bluesky and Twitter as well. This is my strawpage.

my old url was queenssaviour, and that's still a watermark that's on some of my older gifs.

Why do we say “slept like a baby” when babies literally wake up screaming every two hours?

I want to sleep like a middle-aged dad who “rests his eyes” during a Marvel movie and wakes up refreshed, confused, and ready to barbecue.

caseworker regina mills longs for her mother’s approval. when she’s sent by her mother to investigate (read: find problems and shut down) an orphanage for magical youth located on a remote island, she knows she cannot fail.

orphanage master emma swan will do anything to protect the six children under her watch (one of whom could bring about the destruction of the world).

a remote island? an orphanage with secrets written in its walls? six rowdy magical children? what could possibly go wrong? (hubris voice)

Wicked, Gregory Maguire

Cynthia Erivo for Variety. She speaks on how people were psychoanalyzing her friendship with Ariana and the misogynoir she was subjected to during the press tour for Wicked For Good:

“It’s very interesting, watching what people’s perception is versus what the reality actually is. Lots of psychologists seated at home deciding who we were, what we were going through, what we were doing and why. I think that people didn’t really believe that we were actually friends. But that’s also because people don’t know me very well. If I’m a friend, then I’m a friend. If I’m not, then I’m not.”

“I think that we haven’t really come to terms with the insidious nature of how we view Black women. And I’m sure people will read this and think, ‘Oh, for goodness’ sake, it’s not about that.’ But it is. Because that’s what was being made fun of. It was my physique; it was my shape; it was the fact that I was bald; it was about what I looked like. And because of that, there was this assumption that I was bigger than my co-star and so I had to be controlling or protecting, and that was my role. I would hazard a guess that it would not have been the same had it been the other way around.”

How Cynthia Erivo Survived ‘Wicked’ — and Thrived: ‘People Thought I Was Being Myself, Even Though I Was Green’

Now performing a one-woman version of 'Dracula' in London, Cynthia Erivo reflects on the chaos of making 'Wicked.'

it is always narratively correct to make your characters sleep together before they sort through the hundreds of lies and misdirections between them. make things worse make things worse make things worse #i love betrayal #i love lying #i love people feeling bad about themselves

Glinda the Good apologizes for saying “I hate Oz.”

(OZ TODAY) -- It might as well be one of the Throne Minister 10 Commandments: Thou shalt never say I hate Oz. But Glinda the Good did in a video caught by a pastry shop's security camera in Goldhaven, Emerald City.

Here's her full statement:

"I am EXTREMELY proud to be an Ozian and I've always made it clear that I love my country. What I said in a private moment with my friend, who was buying the pastries, was taken out of context and I am sorry for not using more discretion with my choice of words.”

This is a consequence that really never gets brought up, and it really should be because of how damaging it can be.

Genuinely, this is a massive problem that railroads have to deal with on a surprisingly regular basis
